I work in the unmanned field and have supported troops overseas for the past 6 years. It is great to see police starting to use UAV's!! In order to get the public response required for legit backing, more articles need to address the safety and privacy concerns. Better reassurance is required to really get UAVs to "take off"and help us win the battle on our own streets. Think about it...your child needs daily reassurance for many events before he/she really feels comfortable. Great article!
