North Dakota Legalizes Armed Police Drones : The Two-Way : NPR
Hope posting an NPR article isn't grounds for an automatic ban!
They passed a law mandating LEO get a warrant before using drones for surveillance (YAY!) and preventing drones from being armed with lethal weaponry. As it currently reads, however, less than lethal and non-lethal weaponry is allowed. The state representative had to cave on the non-lethal armaments to get the warrant law passed. During the interview, he stated that he was interested in revisiting the policy after a while to attempt disarming drones completely.
If this is the wrong forum, I do apologize! Feel free to move me where needed. I thought the privacy issues and police militarization were worth discussing
