Predator drones to patrol Detroit/Canada airspace

expectations are that missile strikes in the vicinity of Lake St. Clair may help curb tide of illegal immigrants.

Pretty cool if you ask me.

"The MQ-1 Predator carries the Multi-spectral Targeting System which integrates electro-optical, infrared, laser designator and laser illuminator into a single sensor package. The aircraft can employ two laser-guided AGM-114 Hellfire anti-tank missiles."

Absolute insanity. Negotiate a European Union-style treaty with Canada now and allow free flow commerce and people across our borders. Spend that money where real security is needed, on our ocean borders and our airports and other international ports of entry.

We have been a peace with each other for almost two centuries and allies in war both in the past and today in Afghanistan.

This S*** is just killing or border cities' economies and wasting millions for nothing.

What a hostile waste.

Mr. Obama, Mr. Harper. Tear that Wall Down!

I would rather predator drones patrol our border to the south as opposed to up here.

I thought this was an April Fool's until I saw the freep link. To be honest, it's about time Detroit gets patrolled like it actually is at an international border.
