      They asked for “masked armed men” not police officers.

    Get fake glasses with a camera or a pinhole camera on a button.

      I need real glasses to see. Are there any that can also put real lenses in there?

        Assuming the lenses can be removed and replaced, opticians should be able to cut prescription lenses to fit.

        When my wife had her practice, we had a machine that could cut patterns using the frame. Then the pattern is used to cut the lenses. I’m sure it’s even easier today.

      That sounds like a fine way to have your (presumably expensive) drone carrying your (presumably also expensive) camera hit with buckshot.

      I’m not saying don’t try anyways. But there’s a good chance the gestapo just starts blastin’.

        If you have watched anything from Ukraine, you will know that that isn’t the easiest thing in the world.

Rule 7- You can't intentionally annoy, mock, or harass other members.

If you intentionally annoy, mock, harass, or discriminate against any individual member, you will be removed.

Likewise, if you are a member, sympathiser or a resemblant of a movement that is known to largely hate, mock, discriminate against, and/or want to take lives of a group of people, and you were provably vocal about your hate, then you will be banned on sight.



Rule 8- All comments should try to stay relevant to their parent content.
