Drone policing of urban society - RainbowUnicorn - Dec 18, 2016
The modern day reality or George Orwells' prediction.
With continuos deliberate avoidance of investment in social structures like education infrastructure, housing and basic needs(food,water,medical care) the ongoing prioritisation
of profit based society is gradually reducing real people contact with common urban society.
Run as a Cost based system that leverages profit & cost as a back end excuse for continued cost escalation along side continued cut backs in human resources it seems fairly apparant that those in positions of authority are hell bent on putting as much distance between the system(them and those elected and employed to serve society) and the people who actually fund it and pay for it out of their tax.
This removal of reason and human values from the front line seems to be an ongoing social engineering process designed to introduce might is right at the coal face of common everyday life.
i hope you can prove me wrong.

No way is a motorcycle drone a good idea because it is too easy to cause it to crash. It would have to be a hovering drone with an excellent motion detection system and ability to move fast and avoid an attack. But I am having fun imagining ways to rebel against this technology. A good sling shoot may be the best the technology a person needs to get a drone out of the sky? A motorcycle can be taken down by something in the road causing it to tip. If we are really desperate we need a way to send a pipe into the spokes of a motorcycle. This theme might make a good movie?In that movie, the rebels understand the importance of social bonding and working together, their enemy is this completely the impersonal technological police force and those who are in control of it and completely out of touch with the common folks. It is the story of Robin Hood only high tech.
