"The whole aim of practical politics is to keep the populace alarmed (and hence clamorous to be led to safety) by menacing it with an endless series of hobgoblins, all of them imaginary." ~ H.L. Mencken
Pentagon Declares Domestic Drones 'Enemy Combatants' Over Military Bases
Submitted by A. Magnus on Tue, 2017-08-08 23:00
"The Pentagon has given more than 130 U.S. military bases across the United States the green light to shoot down private and commercial drones that could endanger aviation safety or pose other threats. The number of uncrewed aircraft in U.S. skies has zoomed in recent years and continues to increase rapidly - along with concern among U.S. and private-sector officials that dangerous or even hostile drones could get too close to places like military bases, airports and sports stadiums."

What a coincidence - I consider drones over my home to be "enemy combatants" to be destroyed on sight.
