Drone use tightly limited for Texas residents, but new law makes big
exception for police
http://j.mp/1efjhGd (Washington Post)
"A hobbyist using a remote-control airplane mounted with a digital
camera just happened to capture images last year of a Dallas creek
running red with pig's blood. It led to a nearby meatpacking plant
being fined for illegal dumping and two of its leaders being indicted
on water pollution charges. Yet, a Texas law that took effect Sept. 1
tightened rules not on polluters but on taking such photographs, an
effort to better protect private property from drone surveillance."

Pretty ridiculous law overall.
