These videos can be faked. I will acknowledge that.
Is this one fake? I don't know. The fakes I've seen look much higher quality than that one though. Could be real
I've been driving across Ohio for many years, I lived in Erie for many years, authority or not, we NEVER had them around. We had the Coast guard, because our border is 40 miles of water.
Didn't WAC put those up or some other group as a joke?
I've proved that the US Air Force has, and is operating predator drones inside the U.S. for surveillance purposes.
Now here's were the whole "inadvertently" part kicks in. The drone spying on Americans (on behalf of the Po Po so it's all okay) inside America might pick up video of Americans that the Po Po didn't have a warrant or probable cause to spy on. I sincerely hope that helps you disentangle your confusion.
The intelligence oversight policy has nothing to do with warrants, and everything to do with citizenship and nationality.

Nope,,
As Education.
Your 'evidence' directly contradicts what you're saying. The article you posted specifically states that they are not being operated by the Air Force, and the Air Force publication that you posted ponts out that they are incapable of doing what you say that they are doing.
BULLSHIT.
It has to do with CONTROL..
nothing else.
What would it take to bring one of those down?
Everyone should keep in mind that these Predators can't do much that couldn't just as easily be done with manned aircraft. Cameras are cameras, whether they're on an unmanned aircraft or a manned helicopter or spy plane. What makes them offensive is their ability to stay in the air longer than is comfortable for pilots. Still, they can't observe everything and everyone at once. They need to know what to look for. In Afghanistan/Pakistan, for example, many if not most drone strikes are actually guided by human intelligence on the ground.
As for the smaller drones likely to get the most use by the pigs, they're really just RC aircraft with expensive cameras attached. If you want to evade one of these, enter the nearest dense forest -- assuming you can't get away before they can put the thing in the air.
I'm much more concerned at this point about networks of ground surveillance cameras than about drones. Consider the statewide linking of thousands of cameras in Ohio:
http://www.morningjournal.com/articles/2010/10/25/news/doc4cc5868fc39f8505331907.txt
If those cameras are ever equipped with the capability to automatically track people from one camera to the next across the whole state -- a capability that already exists in much smaller camera networks -- then people will really be forced to make the choice between living as domestic cattle or fighting to their last breaths so that freedom doesn't die forever.
Hellfires are air-to-surface missiles.
Bollocks. The first article did I posted didn't say drones couldn't be operated by the airforce over U.S. soil. It spelled out the conditions that drones could be operated.
Air Force Unmanned Aircraft System (UAS) operations, exercise and training missions will not conduct nonconsensual surveillance on specifically identified US persons, unless expressly approved by the Secretary of Defense, consistent with US law and regulations. Civil law enforcement agencies, such as the US Customs and Border Patrol (CBP), Federal Bureau of Investigations (FBI), US Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE), and the US Coast Guard, will control any such data collected.
You must not understand the meaning of the word "unless".
The drones in the 2nd article were predators operating from a U.S. Airforce base. So Air force predator "can carry hellifire missile" drones are being flown over the interior U.S. and they were being flown earlier without public knowledge.
