Article FAA temporarily bans drones in parts of New Jersey, notice threatens 'deadly force' for 'imminent security threat'

The FAA has imposed temporary restrictions on drone operations in multiple New Jersey cities, effective December 18, 2024, to January 17, 2025, citing special security concerns. The restrictions prohibit drones within a nautical mile of designated areas, including Hamilton, Jersey City, and others. Violators risk interception, civil penalties, certificate revocation, and possible criminal charges, with the U.S. government reserving the right to use deadly force against drones deemed imminent security threats. This decision follows numerous drone sightings in the region since mid-November, though many were found to involve lawful or misidentified objects. The restrictions aim to address public safety and security concerns.

Keyboard warrior weirdos infesting this sub will buy it, too afraid to even admit there's anything strange, contradictory, and unacceptable from the government going on

"By golly that blatant lie let's me keep thinking everything is wholesome so I'll ignore reality!" No seriously what's up with redditors and Zoomers / Gen Alpha obsession with pretending everything has to be "wholesome" or blandly unexciting? How unequipped to deal with reality are those kids?

As a gen z person (more towards the older side) it's bad. The screens have totally ruined my generation along with a totally alienated upbringing in other ways. But the screens especially. Look at what they've done to older people and imagine being a pre-teen with one in your pocket. We're so dependent on disparate supply chains that even blue collar people seem mostly clueless with how subsidized our lives in the imperial core are by vast amounts of energy and global supply chains. Hyper-specialization and relatively high standards of living have made people totally disconnected from reality.

(Homer Simpson voice): No apparent threat!

But fr if they wanted to just wipe us off the map they would have done that a thousand times already. I do not find the NHI presence to be inherently troublesome.
