In this article, Boeing is described as creating a flock of drones that act like a swarm of insects.

What is also notable is that the comments immediately express deep concern that our own government will eventually use these tools against the citizenry.  I feel this is another legacy of the Obama administration's constant dishonesty, as well as their frequent actions that show no respect to American values or institutions.  Further, it is a legacy of decades of efforts to divide and conquer by the political elites, encouraging Americans to see themselves not as one nation, but as competing blocks of people scrambling for scarce public resources which are doled out by those in power. 

Also, the media bears deep responsibility for years of reporting that is both biased and hostile to any thing other than the the view of the elites.   Everyday Americans are consistently devalued or denigrated, leaving what is now a deep divide between those in positions of political power, and the common man.

Now, whenever there is some development like this that should mean greater security for America, it is immediately seen as a threat to be used against us.  Really, what a sad state of affairs.

Hopefully some trust can be restored after November, but I'm not particularly optimistic.
