The Drones: What We Know We  Know

Drones Now FILL THE SKIES!

Drones. Drones. They’re everywhere. Or, are they?

Most reports are erroneous. Start with that. It’s something you can even prove.

Then, know that people have been arrested flying drones over military bases in recent weeks.

So that’s happening, or at least it was.

But what about all these other drone sightings?

What exactly do we know that we know, thus far?

I’ve Never Noticed…the Moon

Clearly, people weren’t looking up before. How do I know this?

Because I’m outside at night, and nothing at all has changed.

Most of the videos I’ve seen are clearly identifiable aircraft like planes and helicopters.

News organizations feeding into this frenzy are doing a disservice to the American people.

People say that they’re seeing things really close. It’s not easy knowing how far. That takes training.

And, a helicopter at night may look unusual.

That’s a fact.

Umm..They’re Planes…and Helicopters

Throw in that the F.B.I. has traced the flight paths of known planes and most of these sightings match up.

The remaining? Helicopters.

What about the apparent drones coming in off the ocean?

The most likely explanation are high-altitude balloons and aircraft operated by N.O.A.A. that float or fly around getting weather data, flying through storms and clouds, as it were.


Or, they could even be Star-link satellites, going by in a line, one by one by one. In fact, those are likely the ones NOT showing upon flight data.

The video that the other S.I. paper had is just a helicopter.

Mass Awakening or Mass Confusion?

This is a simple matter of mass confusion.

It’s not a delusion; something is clearly up there. But are they drones?

That’s where the confusion begins. People are observing something. But what?!

The Drones Go Dark When You Get Eyes on Them!

The stories about the drones “going dark” when you “get eyes on them” are refuted by the dozens and dozens of alleged sightings.

The videos roll on and on, and the “drones” never go dark.

The stories about the clocks changing time on clocks are probably some sort of trolling, a nod to the Betty and Barney Hill, a couple that alleged alien abduction in the 1960s, and a distinct feature of their experience was lost time.

Only now, my own relatives are saying that this is happening nightly.

Does anyone have any lithium? Like, a mega-size bottle and a few million prescriptions?

The Moon Followed Me Home!

Drones are not following you home. And, neither is the moon. It’s an optical illusion, silly.

No one is watching you or trying to steal your Porsche with a drone.

It’s China! No, Wait! It’s Russia! No, Wait! It’s Canada!

It’s not the Chinese or the Russians. In fact, it’s not anyone.

It’s mass delusion. Sorry; I said it.

Good thing I’m writing this anonymously.

My family and neighbors would hate me.

Thursday In Westleigh Was a Copter

I saw that ariel vehicle on Thursday night. I live in Westleigh and I was walking the dog.

That was not a drone. Sorry.

It was a helicopter, one of the more expensive models. Sort of like the ones the Coast Guard uses.

Dirty Bombs? Ummmm…Nope.

And, don’t worry. Idiots spreading rumors about looking for dirty bomb parts smuggled in from Iran are out of their gourds.

Our nation does sweeps for radioactivity continuously.

But those in the know already know the configuration of the aircraft when it’s done.

Sure; it could be done using drones, but they would fly in a certain formation and keep that formation.

Another rumor squashed.

It’s the Mothership! Beam me Up Scotty! E.T. is Already Inside Eating Reese’s Pieces

And, talk about an “Iranian mothership?”

Let’s keep politics out of this. Iran does not maintain an Atlantic fleet off the coast of the United States. That is laughable. We have a competent Coast Guard taking care of our waters.

And, a “mothership” would be sort-of hanging in the skies anyway, a U.F.O.-type thing, right? That would then involve the Air Force. I don’t think they’ve reported any “Motherships” lately.

What Was, Is, and Shall Be

There are all sorts of three letter agencies operating aircraft for all kinds of good reasons, but still, not reasons that you or I should necessarily be privy to.

In other words, it’s always been done, and has never harmed anyone.

It’s probably less about surveillance and more about research studies, mapping land and surveying structural features, and constructive purposes like that.

That people’s minds immediately venture to nefariousness shows they don’t trust their government.

Again, anyone who knows realizes we are already surveilled, and so if you’re not guilty, you’re probably not imagining that it’s the government watching you watch Conan episodes you have stored on DVD-R from 2002 while you toke some legal weed and have your nightly martini with your wife.

Let’s be serious.

You Voted For Representation. You Got It!

Our elected officials are concerned. And, rightly so.

Their constituents, sometimes even their neighbors, are reporting all kinds of weird ariel phenomena.

And so, we see Borough President Vito Fosella flanked by a number of our other elected officials, standing in the shadow of the Verrazano Bridge at Fort Wadsworth, with everyone looking cold and worried.

B.P. Fosella had this to say: “Get aggressive! Figure out what these things are and help…alleviate…the frustration and anxiety that many people share This is 2024. They’re either lying, they’re incompetent, or both!” By the way, congratulations to the B.P. on becoming a grandfather!

Representative Nicole Malliotakis added: “…flying all over is a public safety issue there can be an accident there could be an explosion there could be a crash this is a very densely populated area…”

    • Avatar what is going on people says:

      Residents in New Jersey and the wider tri-state area claim they have become mysteriously ill after seeing drones in the sky.

      After witnessing or reading about the devices, residents revealed how they started coughing, suffering from a blocked or runny nose or experienced puffy, watery eyes.

      One woman in New Jersey said she became so sick it felt like she was ‘coughing up my lung’, while a second in New York City said her blocked sinuses must be because of the drones over Staten Island.

      DailyMail.com heard from another New Jersey resident who said they had developed a stuffy nose and swollen runny eyes after the drones flew over their home.

    Where the hell is Westleigh?

  • Avatar Captain Crook says:

    I am embarrassed. This isn’t anything unusual.

  • Avatar Joshua says:

    My family saw the drone in Westerleigh. They said it was massive, like the size of a truck. And there’s a video on SI Live that shows a drone hovering and a drone under it that it’s holding. Or something. One guy said the drone took off at like 200 mph. Crazy times.

    Me? I have no idea. I guess they could be drones or anything. I admit I wouldn’t know how to tell the difference?

  • Avatar I do actually know says:

    These are the advanced weather modification machines that the “other” humans on Earth have been deploying for 20+ years to mitigate the planetary-core-heating issue caused by the solar system entering an area of excess free hydrogen ions. This exerts drag on the planets and heats them.

    I don’t mean China or Russia or anyone. I mean the people that live under the ocean.

    I’ve been told it’s 30 billion citizens down there,

    • Avatar Han Solo XXIII says:

      30 billion… I’d laugh but then again this was here at the Staten Islander I first read about UFO’s diving into the ocean like 4 years ago. And guess what. The very next week the military was releasing stories of just that. Too weird. So maybe 30 billion it is. I read the comments here like a hawk. That would be cool. If true. Just hope they don’t get sick of us land lovers up here and decide to do us in one day. hahaha I guess they aren’t exactly aliens. Makes sense why people see UFO’s then. Hmm… I guess that’s why it isn’t no real threat. They may just be our neighbors. Aliens don’t make sense anyway. Why would aliens come to this s***hole of a planet and spend light years in a fringing spaceship. No way because what’s here. They come for the Perrier. Across hundreds of light years. In the Millennium Falcon no less.

    • CRANK CRANK says:

      The fish people under the sea are worried. They want to make sure they can still get the Riblet sandwich at Micky Dees. Their brains work differently so they don’t understand it’s a once-in-a-while thing.

      • Avatar Sicko says:

        Oh no Crank you got it wrong the fish ppl know its a once in a while thing but its part of their culture and its just like a holiday for us its McRiblet Day under the sea in the world of Neptune. They told me they used to park their aircraft by Arthur Kill Road, but they’ve since built a development there and they park in a new spot. Its a lottery so if ur lucky you get a sandwich. Every citizen gets to be in the lottery.

          Sounds about as egalitarian as it gets. Very interesting. I’ve never heard of this.

          What are they like? Would they share? Do they ever give away the winning?

          Or is that punishable by being sent to the surface without artificial gills?

          I’m intrigued.

          Makes sense. I mean, the fish people wouldn’t be seeking the Filet O’ Fish? 😮

          • Avatar Waiting on line at the mall RN says:

            I would have thought it would be top on their list of American delicacies but who knows. Maybe it goes without saying that they’re always up here going from one McDonald’s restaurant on the island to the next buying out the Fillet Of Fish?

            I think Mic D’s is on to it but if they said anything their Filet of fish sales would drop. Those fish people are probaly the only ones buy it. lol Actually the tarter sauce was mouth drooling good!

      That’s the black triangle craft with the blue-green lights. I only see one video of that. The rest are just drones, planes, and copters.

      • Avatar Kenny says:

        Yo you put your phone number on this? What are you sick? You want to get spammed day and night bro? Good thing they asterisked it out for you.

      • Avatar Edward Keene says:

        I saw those triangle things after the Superstorm in 2012. They well said don’t go outside but we did. the parks were closed but we went anyway and we saw it like the big imperial craft in Star Wars. It was not black it was actually like a grey colour. Pewter. I was visiting with relatives out on Staten Island at the time and about five of us saw the triangle craft. Certainly odd.

  • Avatar Jira says:

    I saw a drone. I am sure of it. Who the **** are you? The mayor of the island? Sure, you know it all.

  • Avatar I say drones says:

    I say drones

  • Avatar What is happening here? says:

    House Foreign Affairs Committee chairman Michael McCaul said Tuesday that he believes that some unidentified drones spotted above New Jersey and New York are “spy drones” from China — after Biden administration officials insisted many of the aircraft are innocent commercial aircraft.

  • Avatar OBservant, the servant, lifelong, of OB says:

    umm.. it’s Westerleigh not Westleigh. Editors, you must be freaking asleep!

  • Avatar asdf says:

    We are in Willowbrook and saw the drones on Thursday. They were not planes. One was about 100 feet long and the other was about the size of a mini van. They made a buzzing sound and weaved in and out.

  • Avatar TRUTH TELLER says:

    It’s those fake planes that come over in a bunch and spray up the skies day and night. They’re been doing this since 2001. They spray the skies and make chemtrails which are not like contrails.

    • Avatar StackSixx says:

      I don’t know if there is a such thing as chemtrails but for sure there are planes that leave persistent contrails that slowly obscure the sky until it is a gray mess. That’s all about the jet fuel pollution not weather modification. Not being clean and actually unsafe when it reaches the ground, the alkylbenzenes and naphthalenes. A lot of what is online is pure fantasy.

    • Avatar get real, people! says:

      Chemtrails are the domain of idiots and schizos. There is no such thing. There are contrails and always have been. This is just another example of the Internet ruining people’s critical thinking skills.

      • Avatar T.T. N/Y/H/C says:

        I am starting to think that mental illness and stupidity go hand in hand. I think this after watch youtube videos one after the other and the topic was mental illness. I noticed the people all seemed quite dumb. Besides the fact they were crazy. Chemtrails is a mass delusion. Just like the flat earth theory. As far as whether we went to the moon or not. But on that one I think we went but also think there was a fake moon landing and the real landing was not publicized and they found an ancient moon base. That’s what I believe.

      • Avatar Downey says:

        chemtrails are not real but I agree with the other poster that pollution is

    • Avatar THAT'S NO PLANE! says:

      THAT’S NO PLANE!

  • Staten_Island_Unicorn_Lover Staten_Island_Unicorn_Lover says:

    So are they drones or not? Is it aliens?

    • Avatar My Password is Secret says:

      Aliens wouldn’t use lights on their spaceships. And before you ask if they told me, personally…….

      No. I’m not schitzopharenic.

      THE DEBUNKERS CALL THEM DRONES OR BALLOONS OR BOTH. CERTAINLY NOT UFO’S IN THE PAST FEW YEARS, THE ALL-PURPOSE TERM DRONES HAS REPLACED SWAMP GAS AND WEATHER BALLOONS AS THE MILITARY’S GO-TO EXPLANATION FOR UNKNOWN OBJECTS AND WHAT MIGHT BE THE MOST IRONIC OF THE CURRENT
      SIGHTINGS INTRUSIONS BY SO-CALLED DRONES CAUSED AIR TRAFFIC AT WRIGHT PATTERSON AIR BASE TO SHUT DOWN THIS WEEKEND. RIGHT. PAT IS WHERE THE WRECKAGE FROM THE 1947. ROSWELL CRASH WAS REPORTEDLY STORED. NICE TOUCH DRONE PEOPLE.

      • Avatar Oliver in the Bx says:

        The caps-lock was a nice touch.

        At least it’s YouTube and you’re not sending us to some nefarious spot. lol

        I’ll pass.

        Roswell? Mannnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnn

  • ninjapaul ninjapaul says:

    It’s Drones. Or something. Personally, I haven’t seen a single one but friends in law enforcement I trust tell me it’s real and the drones are higher tech than they have.

    One story (I saw on TV) was that they emit no heat. I’m a mechanic by trade. No heat? 100% efficiency, then? Maybe it’s self-cooled so well it emits no heat. But then the jamming of other drones. All kinds of crap. I’m not superstitious or really open to the ridiculous but maybe it really is the Sea Monkeys coming for their children we hijacked to traffic in kids comic books. Does that still even go on? man, I’m getting old!

  • Avatar Luigi says:

    the drones are real

    and they flew in a formation so this article is not accurate

    they were looking for radiation

  • Avatar Feisty says:

    I saw a drone for the first time tonight on Christmas Eve.

    I realize it could have been Santa and his reindeer..

    But I don’t think Santa has lights in his sleigh?
