Maryland police are using drones from a Chinese company that were banned in four states::One Maryland officer told a local news station that they have searched for other manufacturers of drones and none live up to the quality of DJI.

Funny how it being not legal is merely an inconvenience. "Yeah we know but we cant find better ones" is not an excuse, at least not for the rest of us plebs

Just because it was banned in 4 states doesn't mean it's banned in Maryland. Beyond that, bans were in states like Florida who are simply trying to rile up anti-China sentiment. Like banning Chinese from buying land in Florida.

Free market, free trade, open society. Opposite of what Republicans believe in these days.
