"This is a fantastic 6.3 illegal aliens per day. Cost per hour is ...I have no idea but I know Jackelope Breeder has a better succes rate than this working by himself without a drone!"

And I'm just willing to bet that Jackelope Breeder is not getting paid anywhere near the $2 million cost of just one of these Hermes drones.

At least the people making (and milking) this Hermes drone program are making some money off watching a few migrants slide through. Well, that progress, gubmint style for ya.

:~)

(Sigh). The government just never gets it concerning UAV's. For the four million dollars they spent on just two huge UAV's that may as well be be manned Cessna's, I could hire ten RC clubs to build hundreds of sensor-equipped kit planes that could patrol the entire border.

This is all high-profile hype anyway. The government has no intention to slow the flow.

I really think we made a quiet deal with Mexico that we'd go easy on illegals if they'd cooperate with terrorist interdiction on their side of the border. They seem to have no trouble shooting people trying to cross their southern border! This whole thing stinks, frankly. We're being invaded, with long lasting consequences they haven't even begun to think of.

You win that bet. It's all volunteers down here.
