So drones might be one thing, but how about a government controlled, 1.2 inch spy device that can fly into your open door or window?

RoboBee is a tiny robot capable of flight. The culmination of twelve years of research, RoboBee solves two key technical challenges of micro-robotics. Engineers invented a process inspired by pop-up books that allowed them to build on a submillimeter scale precisely and efficiently. To achieve flight, they created artificial muscles capable of making the wings beat 120 times per second.

The goal of the RoboBee project is to make a fully autonomous swarm of flying robots for applications such as search and rescue and artificial pollination. For that to be feasible, researchers will have to figure out how to get power supply and decision making functions, which are currently handled via a tiny tether to the robot, on board.
It is believed that the 3 cm (1.2 in) wingspan of RoboBee makes it the smallest man-made device to achieve flight.

I don't know for sure but the snooping and killing technology available by the time President Hillary comes to power will be probably be unbelievable.
To all you gun collectors out there who romanticize armed insurrection against tyranny, that's a nice sentiment, but I'm sorry, armed citizenry will be NO match for technology. 🍺

The only chance the new american revolutionaries would have would be to get ex military on their side. They wouldn't win, but they would be able to make a Syria sized mess of things.

Best everybody medicate themselves with porn, anti-depressants and Duck Dynasty why the government dismantles the Bill of Rights and the original, pre-amended Constitution.

Years ago the Russians tried something similar but with chickens, before miniaturization was advanced as it is today. But the 'RoboCock' project never took off.
