Great idea! Hopefully they will also be used to monitor the homeless and the RV's.

Drones are terrible things, I hate having them around me but for the police and fire department I guess it’s OK but only in emergency situations. The next thing you know delivery services will want to use drones, we have to fight this expansion of drones.

If drones were silent I would not care so much, I put them in same category as leafblowers, noise pollution.

Good lord. We've had cop helicopters buzzing around for decades.
They have better cameras than any drone. They can see in the dark.
Drone flight times are measured in minutes where a helicopter can fly for hours.
The little things we worry about without thinking about the big stuff going on without a single complaint.
