Wow the fuck.
Choice bits for my county:
The Alameda County Sheriff’s Office has requested their 7th drone with high resolution photography capabilities and photogrammetry software, as well as half a million dollars to outfit two of the existing drones with sophisticated camera systems.
The Alameda County Sheriff’s Office has requested this equipment for the identification and processing of mass fatalities after a terrorist attack. They argue that decreasing forensic identification times will thwart subsequent terrorist attacks.
I’ve really not been paying attention to these things, but they sound banana pants.
