Well, crap, that takes the thrill out of Saturday afternoon. I suppose now I am going to have to go scoop snow and break ice.

[manc]

there are cameras all over the place in the UK, they have vans with cameras on and at first during the 80’s the Govt said it was to secure just city centres and the underground.

Now they’re everywhere

Please feel free to post CCTV footage of your activities here in this thread so that they may be evaluated as to their compliance with The Sturgeon General's Ergonomic Guidelines pertaining to manual snow-removal activities.  Variations from Official Guidelines are subject to fines, imprisonment or other penalties as determined by your local Gauleiter.

Well, if you're "appropriating" pictures, take this one too, while you're at it!

[Stoat]

awwwww...that’s sweet! Thank you :-)

roflmao...
Please feel free to tell the Sturgeon General where he can stick his Gauleiter.

I need a job, the excitement of this forum is liable to give me a stroke.

Indeed....they have joined the TV-detector vans in monitoring the public's every activity for compliance with all Government mandates.

When seconds count the police are only minutes away.

If they use those skills here, hopefully it will be focused on Washington, especially the Capitol and White House.

BAE Systems and Kent police reportedly claim that the drones would 'greatly extend' the government's surveillance capacity and 'revolutionise policing.'

Kind of like Irish Elk , only smaller .

So, if we would see one of these buggers overhead, here in the US, we would be within our rights and duties to shoot it down, no?

Yes you are right , no .

I think that 4-5 good riflemen could bring one of them down.

I bet they operate pretty high . Maybe a pumpkin gun at the end of the runway . I think the penalty will be even more severe than that for shooting a Whooping Crane .

Governement around the world has reached a level of total insanity. We have a responsibility as US citizens to see that this does not happen here, or hold accountable those who would promote it.

We have to stand up to the government or we are going to be nothing but slaves to them.

They say that like it's a good thing.

Not to mention even our military would be horrifyingly outnumbered if they attacked their own people, which they won’t.

Not to mention that several of them can at least spell "Constitution", and a decent percentage would find such a mission repugnant and might fsck it over from within.

The social contract is so close to broken , I can not think of a thing more important than standing up to these wanna-be tyrants . When you are faced with life or death , far worse than jumping the gun is starting too late .
