Pros And Cons Of Drones

There are pros and cons of using drones around the world. One pro of having drones and surveillance the crime rate should have a significant drop. "The reason why crime would go down would be because people who commit crimes are more likely to get caught. Depending what type of drone it is you could attack a speaker or microphone and speak through it."

Another pro to drones they can see things that people can't see. As in like people flagging for help or people in danger. The average drone can up to an average of 10-15 miles and if you attach a ultra lens to it you could see even further.

The another pro is that they will soon democratize internet access. "More than half the global population lacks Internet access, but with its purchase of Titan Aerospace in April, Google could bring millions more online. According to an early report, "once the tech is dialed in, Titan’s 164-foot-wide solar-powered craft will soar at 65,000 feet, bringing new parts of the world online." With the use of drones helping boost Wireless Fiber optics (WiFi) capability it bring better education to countries that lack in it."

The last pro

drone have (They can fight pirates) Recently drones have had an impact on the military from bombings and Unmanned Aerial Vehicle also known as (UAV's) in other countries. Now the military "efforts to deter and disrupt attacks off the Horn of Africa and in the Indian Ocean include surveillance drones. " "The craft can spot pirate camps and allow officials to warn vessels when pirates appear to be setting off."

Another con drones from the publisher of (The Christian Science Monitor) the use is "Copy-cat attacks" " The rules for drone killings by the US military in a declared war like Afghanistan are clear," "with strict guidelines in place. But when the CIA is using drones for covert purposes in places like Pakistan, Yemen, and Somalia, the extent of the oversight is far less clear." The rules and regulation of the use of drones in the CIA are different then the military use and other countries have problems with that.

The author "Anna Mulrine" of this article "top 3 reasons it could be dangerous for US" says that (“There’s a big difference when you’re using a drone in a full-scale military operation. Then it’s just a weapon,”.) The problem and the confusion with other countries and drones is that the military is not the only one that use drones. The CIA use them two and recently they have been doing some unlawful things within other countries with drones and the country does not like it." the secrecy of CIA operations means that they do not get scrutinized under any international law, and other countries could argue that they are entitled to use armed drones at will, too." In other words the CIA are doing some suspicious activity with drones and they are not being watched which is causing a problem in other countries. They feel that since the CIA are doing that they should be able to use drones in the united states at there own will." It's more likely that the "secrecy around CIA drone policies could cause other nation states to use the technology as they see fit" Which is bad and will cause conflict.

Another con of drones from the article (Drone warfare: top 3 reasons it could be dangerous for US) (Killing innocent civilians) people think that drones strikes are necessary and so does the military. Herse something you didn't know "strikes are often described as “surgical” in their precision. "But investigations estimate that civilians are being accidentally killed in large numbers" because the drones are not that accurate do to the fact that they don’t actually fly in and kill the terrorist they drop a bomb in the area leads to more deaths.

The last con "drone strikes make Americans less safe." Unmanned drones can seem like a good way to keep US soldiers safe. The problem is that it takes a toll on the respect from other countries to Americans. That will cause problems in the next war. Like places like Pakistan and Yemen, “Drone strikes are causing more and more [people] to hate America and join radical militants; they are not driven by ideology but rather by a sense of revenge and despair.” In other words when the military send drones to kill terrorists, The U.S actually puts people who had no ill will toward our country. The drone policy is making terrorists out of ordinary people because they are mad at the U.S for what they did, for example "Miya Jan is an Afghan man whose family, including his 18-month-old nephew, was killed by US drone strike. He said: “There were pieces of my family all over the road. I picked up those pieces from the road and from the truck and wrapped them in a sheet to bury them. Do the American people want to spend their money this way, on drones that kill our women and children?” America has good intentions they just need to do better executing them.

There's a difference between regular surveillance and drone surveillance. When people think of surveillance they think of security cameras and police patrols. Even though we have that, people still commit crimes but don't necessarily catch the suspect from the crime. In other words, regular surveillance is not the best way when it comes to surveillance. Drone surveillance on the other hand is more useful. Though it is unmanned and is controlled by a person behind a controller or computer, it gives the police and or security an advantage over everybody in the U.S that tries to commit a crime because they are quicker and can maneuver much better when chasing than a police. It also give police less to worry about because even in certain situations which a crime is committed the police saw who did it but could not get a good visual on the suspect the drone can get a positive read on the suspect from an aril few.

The camera on the drone can see better than a police camera on the body and or the police or security guard themselves. Recently people have been complaining that cops have ben abusing their authority. One way we could stop that is by having drones. They would be able to see what is going from the start. There would be no he said or she said in court because all the have to do is look at the drone footage provided by the government so there is no favoritism or dirty tricks being played.

There are a lot of gaps and holes in the system when being announced towards drones. There are two ways that people think of drones. Some say there are just toys. Then there are some that drones are the new evolution of life. Well maybe not the next evolution of life but something close to it. There is that big difference between that and toys. In some circumstances it’s okay to think of drones and evolution of life in the same category because as people age they tend to lose their inner child and if you think about it playing with drones as a child only better prepares you for the new generation and or the next evolution. It’s only a matter of time.

Drones should have the own rules and regulations instead of trying to put it as a part of the regular laws. That are stated in the bill of rights and or constitution. The fact that people try to put it in the same category is wrong. The difference between drones and air planes that one is manned and one isn’t. The safety regulation on drones should be stricter. Just last year during a skiing event a drone fell out of the nearly hitting a competitor. Which could have done a lot of damage. Then a couple months ago a drone came face to face with a rescue helicopter trying to put out a blazing fire. “it could have cause a lot of damage especially if it would have reach my tail propeller. Luckily I swerved off in time or I would have been dead."

One law or restriction for drones is that they can’t fly higher than 50 feet in the sky. Than they can’t become in the way of anything that is flying by. Another one should be that they can only fly on certain days and or in a certain time period. Like at night time there should be a person designated to watch the skies at night. Then for the people who fly drones at night should be punished of some sort. They should have to pay a fine because they broke the law.

Then the state should make a national Drone Day to celebrate all the good things they have done. So that people wont be so scared to se or use the drones. People in other countries hate drones because of the military use for strikes. The military needs to apologize to the other countries for the recklessness. In order to bring back peace with those citizens so they don’t hate the U.S.

The U.S army wants to form a robot army instead of a human army . "From the article U.S. Army Considers Replacing Thousands of Soldiers With Rob" "Army Aviation Symposium, in Arlington, Va., a U.S. Army officer announced that the Army is looking to slim down its personnel numbers and adopt more robots over the coming years. The biggest surprise, though, is the scale of the downsizing the Army might aim for." "At the current rate, the Army is expected to shrink from 540,000 people down to 420,000 by 2019. But at last week's event, Gen. Robert Cone, head of the Army's Training and Doctrine Command, offered some surprising details about the slim-down plans. As Defense News put it, he "quietly dropped a bomb," saying the Army is studying the possibility of reducing the size of a brigade from 4,000 soldiers to 3,000 in the coming years. To keep things just as effective while reducing manpower, the Army will bring in more unmanned power, in the form of robots." In other words recently there has been a lot of deaths of army soldiers and the military is tired of hosting funerals for fallen soldiers so they are looking into using robots instead in which would decrease the death population of soldiers and make America a more advanced place.

It's cheaper to lose a drone than to lose a military solider.

Recently the military have come to a conclusion that it is worse to lose a human than it is a drone. The fact that drones can be replaced a life can't in another reason why drones should replace humans in military combat. The down side of using drones instead of humans is the mechanics that goes into the robot and the body part. Drones can never completely replace humans would cause ciaos. Another thing is that "The "robots" currently in use in the military are unmanned vehicles that are operated by remote. The General is talking about a Robot doing the task of a human soldier in a support role, replacing the human... I haven't seen anything that can come close to doing that." It would have been a good idea but the of the matter is that the U.S is still in debt so they

can't.

In conclusion drone aren't what there made out to be they have there good things there bad things and there ugly thins that the U.S has to deal with. In a couple of years drones will soon be operational as military robots. An by that time America will be a totally deferent environment, as far as economics and governmental operating issues. That can be fixed hopefully sooner than later.
