Public Relations for Drone Pilots has Challenges

Los Angeles, CA —The explosion of civilian multi-rotor camera drones is just beginning.   People are reacting to seeing them for the first time.   My experiences with the public seeing my drones in action has been mixed.   Thankfully the vast majority of people are amazed and they enjoy seeing them fly. A minority of “drone detractors” react with exhibitions of hostility, hatred and ignorance.   In the last two years I’ve had just a scant few unsettling encounters while flying my drone. For reasons I don’t understand I’ve been only been confronted by women.   They advise me I’m breaking the law, and then they call or threaten to call the cops.   They obviously don’t know the law.   I usually ignore them, shoot my video and leave the area when my flight is over.   If the cops respond to their call I don’t know because I’ve always moved on prior to their arrival.   Three women on separate occasions were downright nasty and even e...

American Cops have Allowed Themselves to become Political Scapegoats

New York, NY —Cops here like everywhere are being targeted for violence.  Cops are not the cause of government tyranny.  They are the ones forced by politicians to enable tyranny. Cops once existed to keep the peace and to stop criminal bullying.  However the politicians have perverted the mission of police into their evil extortion mission. Politicians hate running for reelection and want others to fund guaranteed eternal employment for them. Those in power have found clever ways of converting taxes, fines and government ATM style programs to fund their reelections.

Switzerland has a smarter idea for their Presidents.  The President there only serves a single two-year term.  Incumbency does not help anyone and if they elect a bad politician the pain fr...

West Covina Cops In Hot Water For Film Making

West Covina, CA—In this Los Angeles suburb, there is a major scandal! It seems actors wearing police uniforms, driving city owned cars made a little spoof film and posted it on YouTube. Real cops are suspected with involvement in this major transgression. The city’s politicians were not amused and began an investigation. The beef is the “misuse” of city equipment and working without a film permit required for commercial productions. I’m sorry, I see don’t see anythinging wrong unless there is a legitimate victim. This should happen more often especially since the equipment and software is so inexpensive and easy to use. No this film won't make it to the Academy Awards any time soon but the film makers are learning and may just make it there someday. Just so you know the gunshots were simulated with the special effects of Final Cut Pro software. In case your wondering, I had nothing to do with this film. That’s my story and I’m stikin’ to it!
