Update: this just in - Authorities offer $1 million reward for information leading to arrest of ex-LAPD officer Christopher Dorner
We were hoping to evade coverage of the latest mass distraction du jour, that of the former LAPD officer Chris Dorner who recently went rogue following a three man murder spree and who has vowed to kill again as per his 6,000 word manifesto, but the US government had made it impossible following confirmation
that the search for Dorner is now the first official drone-hunt in US history.
The Express reports:
Yesterday, as a task force of 125 officers, some riding Snowcats in the rugged terrain, continued their search, it was revealed that Dorner has become the first human target for remotely-controlled airborne drones on US soil.
A senior police source said: “The thermal imaging cameras the drones use may be our only hope of finding him. On the ground, it’s like looking for a needle in a haystack.”
Asked directly if drones have already been deployed, Riverside Police Chief Sergio Diaz, who is jointly leading the task force, said: “We are using all the tools at our disposal.”
The use of drones was later confirmed by Customs and Border Patrol spokesman Ralph DeSio, who revealed agents have been prepared for Dorner to make a dash for the Mexican border since his rampage began.
He said: “This agency has been at the forefront of domestic use of drones by law enforcement. That’s all I can say at the moment.”
And once Dorner is found by remote-control, it will be again up to drones to secure his "elimination." If for no other reason than to perform a ground test of just how the recently enacted drone-facilitated extermination of US citizens sits with various instances of the US judicial system.

+8How many foreign criminals have crossed our borders & why hasnt he been hunting them down ? And criminal or no criminal, what happened to the right of a jury trial & being innocent until proven guilty by a court of law ... are all of those right going out the window too ?
More to come, mark my words.
Certainly, if I am convinced of any one thing, it's the fact that if the average Joe American actually knew the discussions and contemplations of those squatting in power inside the Beltway, he'd probably be arming more heavily, executive orders be damned.
Sir John had it correct in his profound statement regarding power's ability to corrupt absolutely. Left unchecked, the other cliches seem to flow from the tongue closely behind......dripping in just as much truth.
And, speaking of cliches, we may find one day, these same average blue collar Americans having to answer for themselves, the age old question of the school yard bully...."what are you going to do about it?"
We live in interesting times.
I mean, they're not going to shoot up any innocent bystanders with a drone launched missile, are they? Oh, wait a minute.....

That's what the "Oh wait a minute...." comment was for.
this tyranny will only get worse if people don't wake up and talk about it!
keep talking about it :)
