Frigging sheeple and the treacherous oath breaking MF'ers ruling over them... LAPD Board Could Approve Controversial Drone Program TuesdayOctober 17, 2017 4:05 AM LOS ANGELES (CBSLA) – The civilian panel that oversees the Los Angeles Police Department will consider approving a drone pilot program Tuesday — several months after the department first presented what it called a limited plan to use the technology. Approval of the program would come despite opposition from activists who consider the technology a threat to civil liberties, and after only 6 percent of the 1,675 emails the department received about the program were in support of it. losangeles.cbslocal.com/2017/10/17/lapd-panel-drone-program/

The 'civilian' over-lord panel has spoken, now you sheep get your noses back to the ground... Trust us, nothing to see here. And no, it's not a 'controversial' program at all, the over-whelming majority DID NOT WANT IT, But the Government rammed it down their throats anyways.... that's not 'controversial', that's tyranny. Anyone that does not believe these drones will be weaponized at a later date, are either bold face liars or are fools & tools. LAPD becomes nation's largest police department to test drones after oversight panel signs off on controversial programLOS ANGELES, CA, TUESDAY, OCTOBER 17, 2017 After months of often-heated debate, a civilian oversight panel Tuesday signed off on a yearlong test of drones by the Los Angeles Police Department, which will become the largest police department in the nation to deploy the controversial technology. The Police Commission’s 3-1 vote prompted jeers, cursing and a small protest that spilled into a downtown intersection just outside the LAPD’s glass headquarters — evidence of the opposition police have faced in recent weeks as they tried to reassure wary residents that the airborne devices would not be misused. The use of drones — or “small Unmanned Aerial Systems,” in police-speak — has become a contentious issue for law enforcement in Los Angeles, where the nation’s largest sheriff’s department has flown one since January. Advocates say camera-mounted drones could help protect officers and others by collecting crucial information during high-risk situations or searches without risking their safety. For many privacy advocates and police critics, however, the drones stir Orwellian visions of unwarranted surveillance or fears of militarized, weapon-toting devices patrolling the skies. www.latimes.com/local/lanow/la-me-ln-lapd-drones-20171017-story.html
