Bid Title: Radio-Controlled Quadrocopter

Bid Notes: Clemson is seeking offers for a Radio-Controlled

I see lots of bids like these, particularly from Clemson for some
reason.

Where's the parent's tuition dollars going?

To buy expensive toys for their kids to play with at university.

This is all part of your Fatherland Security bull$hit, the security
mania that has gripped your country for the past 10 years.

This is why you will be under constant surveillance as you, citizen, go
about your daily business. Your children are growing up under this "new
normal". They see nothing wrong with it. They will even report you
(their parents) to the authorities if you make too much of a stink about
this.


Nothing to see here - move along now...

Clue: just because you don't understand it doesn't mean it's worthless.

Probably way beyond his basket-weaving and moon-howling skill set

Bull****.... would you say this if your kid died on campus?
I guess the alternative is to allow students to legally carry guns.

These toys that Clemson is buying is not for it's own campus police.

These are toys that are being bought by professors or grad students,
with grant money provided by your tax dollars or departmental funds, so
the students can fool around with cool toys and write a thesis about it
- and call it an education.

The cover story for these projects is Fatherland Security, Enhanced
Military Ops, Civilian policing, etc.

This is how your keepers are conditioning your children - by having them
come up with tommorrow's surveillence devices that will be deployed on
your streets to keep you in-line.

This is how you lose your freedom, one robot, one toy helicopter at a
time.

This is why you're going broke as a country - when your police and
universities spend money on useless **** like this, as you go down the
road of creating a police state.

So you talk guns with Home Guy, but not with those in Gun Nuts thread.

I'm shocked.
