The drone discussion has been buzzing around the [Connecticut] state Capitol for hearings this week.
Monday, a bill to ban the weaponization of drones was discussed, and on Tuesday, a bill to control the use of drones in many ways, including by law enforcement agencies, was debated.
Lawmakers listened to testimony concerning restrictions on drones with cameras versus expectations of privacy. The bill would also require police to get a warrant to use drones in many cases.
Police made the argument that armed drones in law enforcement could be an effective weapon for public safety.

It's just a matter of time until police get what they want. They usually do.
As you may know, "our" armed drones in Afghanistan kill far more innocent people than terrorists. Get ready for the same outcome here in the US.
I bet you thought this was a government of, by, and for the people.
You thought wrong.
