I think we have the right to know who is flying cameras and equipment over our homes.

Why is the current government not concerned? Cause they don't care obviously and they are hiding information again like always. Trump will do away with the drones .

You notice they are all flying over the northeastern states. If they tried to fly them over Missouri, Kansas or any of the southern states they wouldn't be airborne very long before a few "Country Boys" would shoot one down. Then we would all know where they come from.

Much like the Chinese balloon that flew over coast to coast couple summers ago, this administration has no concern for the safety of its citizens.

Yes we need someone who will do the right thing and not just turn and look the other way. He will clean up the agency and do a great job.

In politics, individuals tell you what you want to hear, and to many of us run blindly with what we’re told. I want to believe everyone taking a political position wants to do the right thing. But when they tell you what they’re going to do and it is radical and erratic-don’t get on the crazy train

Yes, about time people stood up to criminals.

Bragg and the presiding judge should both be stripped of their licenses to practice law, and they could very well see that happen.

This is a case that never should have been charged. Glad to see the he had the courage to intervene in a situation where others were being threatened and he had the skills to take action.

Penny spent almost two in jail on a false charge.

Someone has to stand up for what's right. If people are going to go around threatening people and acting like that then yes I would want someone to protect me or my kids in any way .

The perps record alone indicates he belonged in a cage, and away from any interaction with functional people.

The perp was a threat to riders’ welfare and there was no law enforcement to protect them. Trained military personnel are trained to step up and serve. Penny deserves an award for protecting the common public.
