1/2 To what degree is this: institutional incompetence? individual incompetence in 1 or more gov org? executive branch incompetence? To what degree is this not particular incompetence, but learning curve w/ new weapons & will be a problem in any nation? I'd guess 50% of the last & 50% of first 3

2 Solution's 100% on EXECUTIVE to get control & coordinate between C&BP, military, & FAA. Each 1 of those thinks its mission is more important than the other 2. It's situational but there must be guidelines for Who is in charge, when, where Who gets what weapons/powers & Communication between the 3!

My bet is that CBP were just playing with the drone trying to get video of themselves with moving planes in the background “Because it would be really cool!”

Will military/CPB share the cost of the drone? The cost of firing up that weapon? The cost of cleanup of the crash site? The cost of the PR campaign to CYA it or come up with some distracting newsbite?

"The U.S. military used a laser Thursday to shoot down a “seemingly threatening” drone flying near the U.S.-Mexico border. It turned out the drone belonged to Customs and Border Protection, lawmakers said."

"It was the second time in two weeks that a laser was fired in the area. The last time it was CBP that used the weapon and nothing was hit."

THIS is what comes from a government run by a bunch of clownish right-wing TV personalities & podcasters. They WILL get us all killed with their idiocy. #RepublicansAreKillingUs

Somebody please take Drunky "Hic"seth's toys away from him and his elite "warriors". They need to do what people in the military are always told to do- RTFM before using. I'm afraid a Claymore might be beyond their skills, and would result in many own-goals.

Cat fight between DHS & DoD…maybe Pete wanted to let Cosplay know who’s got more power? Plus he’s gotta be jealous of the planes and side piece.
