This is NOT an april fools joke.
This morning, when I got out of my car to go into work, I noticed a small plane-looking vehicle passing over the building I work at. We are close to the CVG Airport, but this was going away from it in a western direction, not from or towards it. I looked at it and noticed the "buzzing noise" it makes, MUCH different than any normal plane, and it came to me where I had heard that before--on video of a drone on tv or such. It continued on its way, and had one or two "things" mounted on or near what looked like wings and a strobe light flashing.
Pretty sure it was a predator, reaper or whatever non Jet powered drone they are using now.
What was it doing here??
Silly subject. Sees a drone and goes right back to the racist, murderous, right-wing website to exercise hate-speech. I am reporting rca2000 to the authorities immediately.
Cincinnati/Northern Kentucky International Airport
Question, does our private property being secure from unreasonable search and siezure extend to air rights?
So, what kind of bird shot works best on drones?
How high overhead was it?
COMMERCIAL AIRLINE PASSENGERS HAMPER NATIONAL SECURITY
Two, possibly Three gigabytes of intelligence damaged in crash
Drone 33640 irreparably damaged
Human error blamed for computer failure
Obsession? Really?
Okay, then. We shouldn’t worry a bit about what this anti-American, communist administration is up to. I’m sure it’s all simply about “public safety.” After all, if we’re “not doing anything ‘wrong,’” then why should it bother us if the federal government or state and local law enforcement is constantly spying on us with ever-advancing technology?
Yeah, that’s it. “Public safety.” Just as their frenzied desire to disarm the law-abiding American public is all about “public safety.”
Don’t feel lonely we had one pass over us as we exited I-85 at Sugarloaf Parkway (Metro Atlanta suburb) on St. Patrick’s Day. At first we thought it was a chopper but as it got closer the wind drifted it sidways and you could clearly see that it was a drone. Just flying straight North up I-85 spying on the highway.
One was spotted and shown on the evening news in Austin, TX a couple weeks ago. Conroe, TX (east of Austin) sheriff’s dept. has had one for a year. Sure, like they really need one - not.
Time for you to cut your growing operations...
If you were in N California, I would wonder if my 12 year old grandson was out flying his 2 year old Christmas present.
Since you aren’t out here, April Fool!
What are you? Obsessed with freedom or something?
A couple of problems with that new load:
1. The shells cost $50 each for a box of 10.
2. They are only sold in boxes of 10 due to the cost.
3. Your shotgun is ruined after one box.
I think we’ll need some of that long before we’ll need zombie ammo.
I saw you on the drone monitor. Why didn’t you wave?
It isn’t just this administration that is going to use drones. There is no reason to sound like an old luddite that’s afraid of new technology. LOTS of people, organizations, groups, law enforcement, etc, are going to use drones. Everyone from media, universities, businesses, local law enforcement, state law enforcement, feds, even individuals will be using them.
Obsessing over a technology is silly. Most drones in the world are not going to have hellfire missiles hanging from them. In fact the vast majority will probably be replacing/supplementing the helicopters role in dealing with traffic, law enforcement issues, etc. There will be drones for weather spotting, security at public events, individuals that want to monitor their property, etc. Drones are here to stay, obsessing over them is dumb.

lol...My thoughts as well....
however I plan to capitalize on this new sport....I'm doing the research on which animals can best be trained to “point” them for me.....maybe a prairie dog or a field mouse....they are always looking up and watching for birds of pray...
in any event I'll have the 1st field trained “Drone dogs” or “Drone mice” for sale on the Internet....This new sport could become huge in red states...
“Younsurenit”. Wow I made up a new hillbilly word.
Just because something is possible doesn’t make it good or right.
The idea or reality of being spied on from above should be repugnant to any persn,especially Americans who claim to be free.
Great. Now I have to comb my hair and put on lipstick when I go out and feed the chickens.
