Florida Senate Panel Votes To Ban Spying With Drones
A Florida Senate panel says police should be banned from using drones to spy on citizens.

A bill (SB 92) that would prohibit law enforcement agencies from gathering evidence or other information flew through the Criminal Justice Committee with a unanimous vote Tuesday.

The bill also includes an exception for terrorism-related searches.

That is the weasel clause that will allow Washington over Florida sky. Does not Washington believe Americans who follow the Constitution terrorists?

Good for Florida.

Thread: Florida - Sheriff's Office wants to fly drones over Orange County skies

Sheriff's Office wants to fly drones over Orange County skies
The Orange County Sheriff's Office is experimenting with two surveillance drones that it hopes to turn loose over Metro Orlando skies this summer.

Sheriff's spokesman Jeff Williamson would not reveal specific uses for the drones, larger versions of which are known for flying over tribal regions of Afghanistan and Pakistan to drop bombs on suspected terrorists.

But Williamson did say Orange's remote-controlled planes would not be armed. The agency still needs approval from county leaders and the Federal Aviation Administration to use them. The FAA said it does not comment on drone applications.

Dec 9 2010

In places such as Kabul, Gaza, and Baghdad, unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) hovering over homes, following suspects, and tracking enemies of the state are a daily reality.

Re: Florida Senate Panel Votes To Ban Spying With Drones
The U.S. Department of Defense is conducting drone operations from at least four sites in Florida, and it plans to add three more sites in the future, according to data gathered and released by the nonprofit Public Intelligence.

The group released this week an interactive Google map that shows where the drones are being flown from and provides basic information, including the type of unmanned aerial vehicle.

South Florida has three locations on the map: an Army base in Okeechobee; a Special Operations Command site in Homestead; and a Special Operations Command site in Key West. [link to blogs.browardpalmbeach.com]



The following map depicts the approximate locations of current and planned Department of Defense unmanned aircraft systems (UAS) activities inside the U.S. The locations, service branches, and types of UAS flown were obtained from several publicly released DoD presentations. If you are aware of other DoD drone activities in the U.S. not listed below, please let us know. [link to publicintelligence.net]

Florida vies to be America's drone capital

With some experts saying that America’s airspace will host 30,000 drones by 2020, manufacturers of the unmanned robotic planes are pushing to produce as many of the UAVs as they can while interest is only beginning to be on the rise. Soon the United States will settle on just six test sites across the country to try out the tiny aircraft, though, and Florida officials say they hope they make the final cut.

“The skies over Florida will look dramatically different in the years to come,” Space Florida President Frank DiBello told an audience of aerospace professionals earlier this June, reports Florida Today. By earmarking as much as $1.4 million towards accommodating a possible drone program, DiBello’s Space Florida hopes that the government will include the Sunshine State on their shortlist of federally-approved testing sites, a decision set to be determined by the end of the year.

Are you shitting me? That's illegal ain't it?" I say "No ma'am, not here." she goes "When did we allow that?"

Looks like someone is trying to do something about it. Cali no less.

"With the filing of the suit on Tuesday, the EFF hopes that they will be able to finally let the public understand why spy planes are being flown through American skies without the people of the country given any reason or warning as to why."

Go Florida! A win for the people.
