CBP’s Predator Drone Flights Over LA Are a Dangerous Escalation

The recent decision by Customs and Border Protection (CBP) to deploy Predator drones over Los Angeles has raised serious concerns among civil liberties advocates and residents alike.

These drones, originally designed for military use, are now being used for domestic surveillance in violation of privacy rights.

The use of drones in civilian airspace poses a significant risk to public safety and privacy.

There are concerns that these drones could be used for warrantless surveillance and targeting of individuals without due process.

Furthermore, the use of drones in populated areas like Los Angeles raises the risk of accidental collisions and crashes, putting innocent civilians at risk.

The deployment of Predator drones over LA represents a dangerous escalation in the militarization of domestic law enforcement.

These drones can carry weapons and have been used in military operations overseas, raising fears of their potential use for lethal force against American citizens.

CBP’s decision to use Predator drones in LA without proper oversight and transparency is a clear violation of constitutional rights and due process.

The use of drones for surveillance in civilian airspace sets a dangerous precedent that could lead to further erosion of civil liberties and privacy rights.

It is essential that we push back against this overreach of government surveillance and demand accountability for CBP’s actions.
