In New Jersey, possession of a BB gun can land you in jail, but roving drones the size of cars are not a problem.

They don't even know where the drones came from, yet they jump to conclusions about whether they pose any threat.

[VB-lzcx]

In the meantime, a 3 oz shampoo bottle in a carry-on is a threat.

[brianbrowning]

You can’t say both, “ we don’t know what these are”, and, “they pose no threat”. That’s illogical, and nonsense.

[steelsteez]

THESE ARE " MANNED DRONES BEING OPERATED LAWFULLY?? " OK, THEN WHO EXACTLY IS OPERATING THESE ALL NIGHT EVERY NIGHT AND IN RESTRICTED AIRSPACE WHICH VIOLATE FAA LAWS? THEY CLEARLY MUST BE SPECIAL PEOPLE TO BE ABLE TO OPERATE "LAWFULLY" OVER THESE RESTRICTED AIRSPACES. SO PLEASE ENGLIGHTEN US!! WE DEMAND ANSWERS.

[maddantt]

this is a national security emergency and a national disgrace at the same time

[joelellis]

This is an embarrassment to our country. People should be losing their jobs. If you don’t know why they are there or what they’re doing, you can’t conclude anything.

[krice]

Somethings fishy when they keep telling us there is no threat yet they can't tell us what they are. A bunch of bull if you ask me!!

[FHFJB]

You can’t say there is no threat and at the same time say you don’t know anything about the drones. Total BS!

[mikebradshawsr]

For 17 days drones flew over Langley airforce base in virginia. No one took action to find out about then.

[oraclepanda]

There is literally nothing safe about giant drones scanning you and your house. Wtf.

[MillywiggZ]

They said the same thing about the Chinese Balloon.

[iLLSHiNEz]

The gaslighting is of biblical proportions.

[HCheatNcool]

I need to be airlifted to a hospital in Staten Island overnight and they couldn’t do the airlift because of the drone activity in the area. We absolutely cannot say that there is no threat to public safety.

[sashagarcia]

lol when the government says don't worry, you should be very worried

[vikroy]

It doesn't matter if they haven't caused harm, we want to know what they are. Why are they fighting us over this?

[rshenry]

Nothing makes you realize just how inept our government is quite like this situation.

[Jimmy_Mark]

A conversation with no respect to our IQ. No respect at all.

[beachs]

This is ridiculous. The government knows we’re just not being told.

[TheHorrorFactory]

Being surveilled by an unknown entity across the entire country and WORLD is not what I would consider harmless.
