For those who may have missed it, back in 2012 and in addition to the many drones already deployed in foreign countries, Congress gave the nod for Homeland Security and the NSA to build and launch more than 30,000 drones over American skies; some small enough to fit in the palm of your hand. Indeed, drones come in all shapes and sizes. And with new state-of-the-art motors, this technology enables continuous non-stop flight. Plus, with high resolution cameras and other new equipment, most drones will be able to intercept all audio and visual for a 100-mile radius. Thus, if they build them like they do for missions in Afghanistan, Iraq, Syria, Yemen, etc., they can easily be equipped with an assortment of weaponry. To put it lightly, this should make every American very uneasy...  

In fact, when we consider everything that's going on today, perhaps this is a perfect time to question all things questionable... including the events of 9/11, our eroding constitutional rights, and the true reason for why we find ourselves fully embellished in constant wars... It's either that or welcome to George Orwell's 1984 (on steroids).
