Wait, we don't own our property airspace? So then, and I'm not being facetious, the entire plot of the 2010 film Burlesque is complete bullshit?
I figured a drone over a prison was a no and I was just being humorous but the citizen's lack of property airspace sucks. I get it for like a mile above your house because of planes, but drone height? That's stupid.
What if the drone touches the ground or a surface that connects to the ground like a rooftop? Is it fair game then?
Pretty sure you own ~100 feet above, 20 feet below and nothing further. If the police stay above a hundred feet then there’s no legal recourse for their spying. And now I’m going to read the article to learn why they’re spying on peoples’ 9/11 parties.
Edit: “an annual Caribbean festival marking the end of slavery that brings thousands of revelers”
My best guess is simply that it's Labor Day weekend. People party a decent bit over it. And when people party, there's a chance for cops to make some money, I mean arrests for dangerous dangerous crimes against society.
I ninja’d you. It’s black people. They deployed drones because of black people. If police weren’t so eager to fit their stereotype, this would almost be unexpected.
