With all the discussion on drones, this seems particularly appropos.

The Federal Aviation Administration has finally released a new drone authorization list. This list, released in response to EFF’s Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) lawsuit, includes law enforcement agencies and universities across the country, and—for the first time—an Indian tribal agency. In all, the list includes more than 20 new entities over the FAA’s original list, bringing to 81 the total number of public entities that have applied for FAA drone authorizations through October 2012.
Some of these new drone license applicants include:
The State Department National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) Barona Band of Mission Indians Risk Management Office (near San Diego, California) Canyon County Sheriff’s Office (Idaho) Clackamas County Sheriff’s Office (Northwest Oregon) Grand Forks Sheriff’s Department (North Dakota) King County Sheriff’s Office (covering Seattle, Washington) And several new entities in Ohio, including: Medina County Sheriff’s Office Ohio Department of Transportation Sinclair Community College Lorain County Community College
The list comes amid extensive controversy over a newly-released memo documenting the CIA’s policy on the targeted killing of American citizens and on the heels of news that Charlottesville, Virginia has just become one of the first cities in the country to ban drones. This new list should contribute to the debate over whether using domestic drones for surveillance is consistent with the Constitution and with American values.
'You poor dear!' said Red Riding Hood straightening the blankets and fluffing up the pillows. 'But Grandma, you do look strange! What big ears you have!'
'Only to hear you better with, my dear,' said the Wolf.
'And what big eyes you have Grandma!' continued Red Riding Hood in surprise.
'Only to see you better with, my dear,' said the Wolf.
'What a big nose you have Grandma!' said Red Riding Hood.
'Only to smell you better with, my dear, ' said the Wolf.
'What big teeth you have Grandma!' said Red Riding Hood.
'That's only to EAT YOU BETTER WITH!' said the Wolf. He jumped out from under the blankets and gobbled up Little Red Riding Hood, red cape and all, in a single swallow.
Orthodoxy SUCKS.
"Rightful liberty is unobstructed action according to our will within limits drawn around us by the equal rights of others. I do not add 'within the limits of the law' because law is often but the tyrant's will, and always so when it violates the rights of the individual." Thomas Jefferson

There had been one just 15 minutes from me just over the border in East Texas. i don't see it there now which I hope is true. It was for requested by the Sheriff's department.
If you call your local sheriff and say your drone means I will not be voting for you anymore and neither will my friends and neghbors, and tell who ever approves the sheriffs budget the same thing. They do not need to be watching nude women while insane people shoot up schools. How many armed guards can be hire for the cost of operating and maintaining a drone.
