I guess I would say why are people concerned about this? I’d be much more concerned about ones without navigation lights.

- dgfitz 2y agoI didn’t mean to imply I’m concerned, quite the opposite. Like mentioned, this has been happing for half a decade in my world.
- dialup_sounds 2y agoIt's a social contagion of panic. Blurry video clips trend on social media > local news talks about it > people report to state and local government > national news talks about it > people report to national agencies > national agencies shrug > people say it must be aliens, Iranians, or the CIA. A few thousand people might have seen a drone, but a few million people saw a politician going on national television claiming there's an Iranian mothership off the coast.
- IAmGraydon 2y agoThat's what I'm saying. Drones are so common that you can buy them at Walmart, and I would be willing to bet that people reporting large drones are just not able to properly judge scale in the sky. What's next, people panicking because they are seeing cars driving around the streets?
