Illegal Drone Usage
The United States government certainly has balls. Not only are they willing to violate the rights of American citizens but they're also willing to violate the airspace of other nations:
The US has been sending unarmed drones over Mexico since February to gather intelligence on major drug cartels, the New York Times reports.
Yeah we'll just fly some drones around Mexico since they probably can't detect them or shoot them down. Now that I think about it we probably asked the Mexican government for permissions:
The missions had been kept secret because of Mexican legal restraints and sensitivities over sovereignty.
Or not. It's OK though because now the Mexican government knows and they're probably pissed as Hell...
US President Barack Obama and his Mexican counterpart, Felipe Calderon, formally agreed to continue the surveillance flights during talks in Washington on 3 March, which included a frank exchange of grievances, Mexican and US officials said.
Or not. Honestly if I were the ruler of a country and my neighbor started violating my airspace I'd be pissed regardless of the intentions. Hell if I had the capabilities I would track and shoot down the drones claiming they were foreign military assets violating my country's airspace.
I guess we shouldn't expect a government willing to violate the rights of its own citizens to respect the rights of other countries.
