Let's see, I seem to remember something about Predator drones only intended for surveillance... now there are kids in South Carolina playing video games with em' somewhere over Pakistan.

@vidiot9: Kids, really? IIRC, only trained pilots fly Predator drones.

I'm sorry but how effing fast/far is someone going to be able to swim that we actually need to get one of these, if someone is deploying one of these puppies from a boat (most likely to narrow down area in which swimmer is) why not just get your boat over there, and if it is from the coast, good luck at actually finding something, this whole idea just seems really stupid, unless michael phelps is a terrorist, I think we will be ok.

@dantheman12: Ever hear of a re-breather? No bubbles makes it hard to track something in the water if the visibility is poor.

@superdemon: there job is to protect and enforce, killing is something they are forced to do, not their main goal although it may seem that way

Would have been nice if in the video they provided the "eel" actually, uh, did something. As it was, it just looked like a submersible dildo, extra king size.
