OT: Mystery drones across Nebraska

I'm guessing some of these NJ drones, at least the "large ones", belong to people who have more money than sense. I find it hard to believe that these are the size of a small vehicle, though.
I saw two drones over Lincoln back in 2020 when we had all of those original sightings. They were far enough away I couldn't hear any sound from them, and I would have expected them to be about 6' across although I'm no expert on such things. I think that's still in the hobbyist class of drones.

I don't believe the powers that be would allow hobbyist drones to hover over some of the places they have been sighted. We either can't bring them down or don't want to.
The drone sightings seem to be concentrated over areas which in fact have sensitive military or national defense facilities. We're naive to think it's anything other than a bad actor seeking detailed information and testing or ability to detect and destroy drones. First it was balloons. Now its drones.
I know a guy in my area with two large ag drones. He sprayed 9,000 acres with them this year.
It's wild. I think a lot of people still think of drones as the little things an 8 year old flys. People are using them for all kinds of cool applications.
If he can fly them over military installations unchecked, we have another problem.
I get what you are saying, but why are they not being shot down? The Iranians were able to hack and land one of our high end drones 10ish years ago. We can't do that? Drones have been an issue for years and we have ways of dealing with them. Why are they not being dealt with in this case?
Well, he is probably a normal person, where I am some weirdo that has spent too much time thinking about the topic.
I dunno. They let those damned balloons fly over our facilities until the public called them out on it. They've also let Chinese affiliated corporations buy up land adjacent to military installations. There is ZERO doubt that China is executing reconnaissance missions with drones in our country. They just caught one guy and arrested him before he could flee the country.
I think the democrats in New Jersey would agree that it's a non-partisan issue.
Sleepy let the Chinese spy balloons fly over our military facilities for months before the public finally raised the alarm. I don't know if they can gather more information than some of the satellite imagery they're able to gather. Somebody on the radio the other day that they can gather more specific GPS information of potential targets than you can get from a satellite without real time video control of the weapon. My first thought of the drones flying over some the areas was that they were being controlled and being used in training exercises by the military. IF that were true, why wouldn't the military admit it?
I'm now convinced that at least some of the larger drones are being operated by adversaries testing our air defenses over or near sensitive areas. The problem with trying to shoot them down over populated areas is that there would undoubtably be collateral damage on the ground.
You ever stop to think that those drones were seeding the air with Covid? It was pretty strange they appeared in December of 2019 and 5 weeks later we have Covid.
You brought the SPR into a discussion on drones and the military. It's clear you don't know what you're talking about. Your partisan comment was at the end of a post about oil. It was clearly a partisan take.
Apparently they matter now, as they are being seen on a coast. In 2020 they were all over south central Nebraska. Out of our back yard (in town, next to one of our elementary schools) on a couple of occasions, it was at least a dozen of them, in an obvious grid pattern, doing something. One hundred percent suspicious then, as it is now.
It brought jobs back last and would have brought more if there would have been a 2nd term. Now the question is will there be only 4 years again
I’m actually breaking with what seems like everyone on this. IF we do see price increases, it will be extremely short lived and demand dropping will even it out or actually cause deflation, not inflation.
The inflation in 2021 was created by money added to the supply creating an artificial boom in demand. The tariffs will only pull consumer money OUT of supply and to the government, while lowering demand, causing deflation. This is coupled with the long overheated economy actually starting to slow down anyway.
The media was screaming that the printed money would not cause inflation, that was a lie. Now they’re screaming that we’ll have inflation, I believe that will prove to be another lie. They want you to be the opposite of prepared.
This^^ is the only answer here. The government is obviously lying about not knowing what the drones are. They would be shot down quickly.
If they really didn’t know what they were and “couldn’t” shoot them down, they would make up a fake story about them being some benign entity doing research. People would also see the shoot-down attempts.
The media is also complicit in letting the government off the hook with such an obviously fake narrative. The typical Fox News “blame other country” agenda is equally laughable. Question nothing, that’s journalism today.
And no, they are not trying to kill the next president 🤣 He would be dead already and it would be EASY. More fakery for the movie.
A drone was spotted over Crane Naval Air Station in Indiana, a navy base in
Indiana, crazy I know, but it is the home of the naval surface warfare operations.
What better way to dupe the public than having "so-called" unidentifable drones over the air space of what should be a secure site? If the US didn't know who they were, and they were considered a threat, they wouldn't be there very long.
There was a time when the US govt took potential threats serious.
Makes it way too easy to blame a foreign entity when the US is the likely culprit.

You don’t think the SPR has anything to do with our ability to deal with a major international military conflict? Okay.
Those balloons should have been knocked down before they got into our airspace. Once here it's hard because they could have been booby trapped or sabotaged with chemical or biological. To shoot them down in the Atlantic was closing the gate after the cows got out
Sounds like you don't understand the history of the SPR or understand how much oil we produce. Not surprising.
I see you're very audible sensitive, allow me to explain.
1st time: my lawnmower.
2nd: My generator running a garage heater.
3rd: Sorry I had Abdelardos.
4th: Testing my snowblower.
5th: A plane
6th: Running out the last of my lawnmowers fuel.
7th: a helicopter.
8th: more Abdelardos.
9th: Covid spreading Drone.
10th: Generator running a garage heater.
We good?
