DHS is using state police to set up a national domestic drone spying program

The Illinois State Police announced that the FAA has authorized what it calls its 'Unmanned Aircraft System Program'. 

It's a F***ING surveillance drone program, for god's sake! DHS/Police are trying to mask what it really is by calling it an 'Unmanned Aircraft System Program'

The State Police are avoiding the word 'drone' because 'it carries the perception of pre-programmed or automatic flight patterns, and random, indiscriminate collection of images and information.'

The announcement says the program 'is not being implemented for surveillance purposes.' 

Does anyone really believe it?

There's even a UAS news website where you can follow all the latest surveillance drone news.

Need more proof DHS is running America's police?  The Illinois State Police are using DHS/Customs Border Patrol lingo from 2009:

A recent DHS audit found DHS/CBP's UAS system to be ineffective and too costly!

Custom and Border Protection’s (CBP) drone program is ineffective and surveys less than 200 miles of the southwest border, according to an audit by the Department of Homeland Security’s (DHS) Office of Inspector General.

The program operates 10 Predator B drones at a cost of more than $12,000 for every hour a drone spends in the air, funding which could be put to better use elsewhere, according to the OIG.

The program costs $10,000 more per flight hour than what DHS claims, according to the OIG.

“We estimate that, in fiscal year 2013, it cost at least $62.5 million to operate the program, or about $12,255 per [flight] hour,” the audit said. “The Office of Air and Marine’s calculation of $2,468 per flight hour does not include operating costs, such as the costs of pilots, equipment, and overhead.”

“Although CBP’s Unmanned Aircraft System program contributes to border security, after 8 years, CBP cannot prove that the program is effective because it has not developed performance measures,” the audit, released on Christmas Eve, said. “The program has also not achieved the expected results.”

The government has already spent $360 million on the program since 2005, and DHS hopes to add 14 more drones at a cost of $443 million. However, the OIG said the agency has not proved the program deserves to be expanded.

“Given the cost of the Unmanned Aircraft System program and its unproven effectiveness, CBP should reconsider its plan to expand the program,” the audit said. “The $443 million that CBP plans to spend on program expansion could be put to better use by investing in alternatives, such as manned aircraft and ground surveillance assets.”

DHS is told the program is ineffective and should be halted, so what do they do? They've taken the first step in Illinois by setting up a NATIONAL UAS domestic spying program.

Police continue to lie about using Stingray surveillance equipment that's spying on everyone's cell phones, so why would ANYONE believe this B.S.?

The ruling allows law enforcement agencies to use a UAS only in certain circumstances, such as natural disasters, searches for missing persons, documenting traffic crashes and crime scenes, or if DHS identifies a specific risk of terrorism.

Except in emergency situations, a search warrant must be obtained before the UAS can be used on private property.

There's the lie EXPOSED for anyone willing to look past the B.S. In most cases police don't even have to go before a judge to get a warrant.
