In our good faith effort to get ahead of the virus and potential need to manage and safely monitor crowds and social distancing in this environment, our announcement was perhaps misinterpreted, not well-received, and posed many additional questions,The fact that they did not see a problem with this in the first place tells me they should not be in law enforcement.

It was not misinterpreted. Even the stupid electorate of Connecticut understood it for the despicable totalitarian effort that it was.
Any police officer that would suggest or approve of drones to spy on the citizenry is utterly unfit to wear a badge.
To: McGruff
I wonder how many pics they got of people giving the drone the finger

Right up there with pink armbands in the “stupid things we thought would work” category.

Yeah, right.
That is the same excuse Libs use when another of their 'it looked good on paper' idiocies fails.

Why should anyone believe them?
To: McGruff
I wonder how much tax money they paid for these wonder drones with long range virus detectors? I would love to see them demonstrate this break through technology to the medical world.

Had a friend who passed away over 10 years ago. He rented a cottage on one of the large estates in Westport. Its a very wealthy town
He use to watch the yatchs as they left port.

I am guessing some stupid police officer(s) wanted to play with drones. Regardless, fire the asshats who pushed for and approved of this.
