The other part of the problem is complete lack of trust in what government says. While there may be 100% legitimate and non-threatening reasons for the activity, people just don’t trust the government when it says “Remain calm, all is well!”

My take on this is that most of the sightings are planes, stars, and other things but there are some sightings and videos that sure look like drones or something weird.

I have been checking the skies every night and haven't seen anything yet. But I did notice the local military installation was shining spotlights in the sky at night. I have never seen that coming from that site.

My daughter use dto live in rural Florida Panhandle, near the northside of Hurlburt Field/Eglin AFB, a known Drone Training base.

As I said, she lived way out in the country, and this is in Florida, so in the afternoons when our 3 year old grandson was taking his nap, she would go outside to soak up some sun and relax.

She eventually noticed that a drone A/C would appear shortly after wards and just hang around in plain sight. This continued for several days, and every day it appeared at the same exact time she did.

Being in rural Florida, bears area constant problem, and she had her .380 Special beside her at all times (She’s also CCW)

She raised her weapon and pointed it directly at the drone.

It immediately left and never came back..........................

"Drone Derangement Syndrome (DDS), refers to the IRRATIONAL and often heightened fear that drones are being used for surveillance, control, or even sinister political and military objectives."

How can you know it is irrational? Next you'll be joining the chorus saying Islamophobia is irrational.

Oh BS. Fear of intrusive govt surveillance is not paranoia. It is what the govt is doing.

These recent flurries of sightings are not mass hysteria or swamp gas. People are rightly concerned. The govt has again shown itself to be incompetent and incapable of action.

When the government says about the drones, "We know absolutely nothing about them. We don't know what they are, where they come from, or who is behind them"...
...but then says, "There does not appear to be a public safety risk associated with these drones."
You know there's a problem.

So asking questions and demanding answers is a Derangement Syndrome?
Just another way of silencing people.
What will happen if a private person shoots down a drone?
I'm sure FBI will be right there to put him in jail, those large drones are very expensive after all.

I have been saying since the start that this was a conditioning exercise. Whoever is behind this wants the population to become “familiar” and “docile” regarding this stuff in the sky.

It’s how you train “the mob.”

The phenomenon, dubbed Drone Derangement Syndrome (DDS), refers to the irrational and often heightened fear that drones are being used for surveillance, control, or even sinister political and military objectives.

It's not irrational at all.

Considering what our government has turned into, it's well worth questioning what's behind this and to expect it to be something nefarious.

It's only going to be a matter of time before these things start getting shot down.

This is nothing more than a disinformation campaign by the Agency and DoD to shame normal individuals into silence by labeling them as afflicted with DDS - drone derangement syndrome. It’s just a new term pulled out of the blue and parroted off of Trump Derangement Syndrome. TDS is real, DDS is the current Agency tactic to label, ridicule and sham in a manner similar to what they have done for decades to those who study the subject of UFOs. Now their job is to silence those who report on ‘drones’ by applying the old UFO thread worn shaming tactic that you should not believe your lying eyes. It’s all so ridiculous and displays high desperation by those who are trying to hang onto power. Hopefully, their charades on the American public will soon come to an end.
