Drones "Spying" on New Jersey.

There's zero possibility the authorities don't know what these are.
Good deal; I hope when I get called on by a citizen one of these days the authorities can do me the same and pretend like they don't know these are. If you can ignore this, you can ignore whatever I have in my "fleet." For years, I'm going to reference this and milk it for all it's worth. If it takes a million phone calls and a thousand days to get to the bottom of it, you can do the same for me. I honestly think this false flag was an attempt to influence the drone ban situation but what do I know; I'm not yet ready to announce that definitively.

So, who is behind this nefarious plot to flood the Jersey skies with flashing lights in order to push Congress into adopting the Countering CCP Drones Bill?

Senator Stefanik? Autel? Skydio? The Tahitian drone industry? (I read on X that they have with sixteen Panamax container ships loaded with drones and anchored in international waters off Florida waiting to stock them at Best Buy.) The Ecuadorian balsa wood forestry cartel who want us to quit flying plastic? DJT Jr., now that he's a big shareholder in UMAC? The Karens Anonymous Anti-Drone League?

Who is waving that big red false flag? I assume that the flights ceased after the announcement today that the Chinese drone ban appears to be dead?
 
Some folks might know who are what is going on other authorities don't seem to know:

Exactly ! FAA rules for RID and REGISTRATION for us little guys ?? What a big JOKE. Sorry but I was never a big fan of it in the first place but I complied with it. And now THIS ??? If the FAA and government are sooo worried about it, shoot ‘em down.
My advice, STOP worrying about the FAA tracking YOU down because you’re taking some pictures. And that’s my rant.
 
If you were to fly a spy drone why would you be using a drone with strobe lights?
To see what if anything anyone does about it and when exactly while sowing fear, panic and distrust of government. At this point, I tend to agree with the theory its secret testing by US being done with zero regard for public opinion, concern or safety with FAA's support and approval.
 
Since we're tossing out speculative theories about the flashing lights in the sky, here's mine.

They're hobby grade drones being operated by a group of college sophomore psychology students investigating public paranoia and the spread of rumor and hysteria via social media and sensational local television news reporting.

Either that or swamp gas.
 
is this anywhere near where the martians landed in War of the Worlds? If were going for wild theory's....
It's been raining all day, so I'm indoors and had time to look that up. You're right. It is. The fictitious 1938 landing was reported to have occurred in Grover's Mill, New Jersey. There's a monument there commemorating the non-event.

That's my current theory right now.

It wasn't long ago I was very patriotic, with a deep love and admiration for America, the greatest nation and political system mankind has ever produced. I trusted government, the FBI, etc., for the most part.

What's remaining today is the patriotism, love for country, and my fellow citizens. The trust is gone.

I'm of the opinion this is a false-flag operation to manufacture support for the anti-DJI legislation. The fact this is going on for months with no response, and no explanation, screams something underhanded is going on.

I can’t agree with this.

While they may care nothing for public safety (and I believe our people who would hypothetically be involved in fact do care), the risk of exposure if there is a crash is too great.

Unless the test involves necessarily flying over populated and sensitive areas, there are much better places to perform flight tests that don't incur these risks.

I have a slightly different college-based theory, based on my own college experiences, that I think more likely: A half dozen or so college engineering freshman hooligans that have learned enough to defeat RID, and are having a blast making everyone scramble and wonder while they fly around stoned and laughing.

Man it was fun blowing up acetylene balloon bombs on the roof of the high-rise dorms back in '84... harmless, but percussively loud as hell. Well, we did crack one window ONE time...

Making acetylene never should have been a lab exercise in freshman chemistry... 😁

Yes, exactly. I was responding to a question about what would be a foreign adversary's motive.

When we were kids we made hydrogen balloons with lye, water and tin foil. A little dangerous but seemed fun back then.

Witness says the drones are coming from Picatinny Arsenal. The same place the FAA has designated a TFR for "security." Note: the FAA may issue TFRs "in the interest of national security, pursuant to agreement between the FAA and the Department of Defense, or between the FAA and a U.S. Federal security or intelligence agency." But for everybody else in the country, flying one drone without registration in a TFR is a potential 3 year + federal prison sentence.

Who would have the incentive, willingness, and ability to conduct such an operation?

When trust is lost, this becomes much harder to answer, as the possibility of nefarious motives opens up a gigantic universe of potential incentive, willingness, and ability.

That said, I'll posit the likes of Elise Stefanik, if not pointing the finger directly at her.
