What is this site? This is awful journalism. The first known domestic use of a drone to arrest a U.S. citizen occurred last year in the small town of Lakota, North Dakota when rancher Rodney Brossart was arrested for refusing to return six of his neighbor’s cows that had wandered on to his property. Critics say the fact that domestic drones are being used in such minor matters raises serious concerns about civil liberties and government overreach. Minor matters? Here's the actual story: The bizarre case started when six cows wandered onto Rodney Brossart's 3,000 acre farm. Brossart, an alleged anti-government "sovereignist," believed he should have been able to keep the cows, so he and two family members chased police off his land with high powered rifles. After a 16-hour standoff, the Grand Forks police department SWAT team, armed with a search warrant, used an agreement they've had with Homeland Security for about three years, and called in an unmanned aerial vehicle to pinpoint Brossart's location on the ranch. http://articles.chicagotribune.com/2012-04-10/news/sns-201204101127usnewsusnwr201204090409dronesapr10_1_drone-brossarts-swat-team http://articles.chicagotribune.com/2012-04-10/news/sns-20120... This is common sense. If (incredibly) it's not legal now, it absolutely should be.
