You doubters should be ashamed. Y'all thought President Obama was just wasting time on the course. He's actually protecting America.

The president sending a nation-saving drone on its mission:

California-based drone maker AeroVironment, which has been supplying the military with small drones, has developed its first miniature helicopter drone designed specifically for law enforcement.

You can hold it in your hand.

So lite, it can land on your patio roof, or hover outside your window, with high end video, and you'd never know it.

Heh.. This reminds me of that scene early in the Bruce Willis movie, 'The Fifth Element', when the police raided that apartment building and there were swarms of little flying mechanical bugs going everywhere. I really enjoyed that movie.

Can't cover too many of us serfs when his balls only travel about 30-yards.

That is, of course, unless he is on airforce one...

Creeped out, but not at all surprised. The CIA revealed a few years back that in the 1970s, they developed a mechanical dragonfly that could carry a listening device. It was only a prototype, but it could be done, and technology has come a long way since the 1970s. Drones will continue to become more capable and less expensive to produce as technology advances, meaning there will be more and more of them. I don’t like the thought of that, but it seems inevitable.

I also think it may not be too long before someone figures out a way to make a tiny drone that is capable of doing more than just surveillance - i.e. armed miniature drones. Maybe not golf ball-sized ones, but I can see a somewhat larger device being equipped with the ability to fire a rifle bullet or the like in the next few years.

Considering how incompetent government is, most of these things will break within a week.
