SOUTHFIELD, Mich. (WJBK) -

Drones are in the skies over Pakistan right now and also in the skies over Detroit.  They can be used to help protect our safety, but they can also be used to kill.

Who should control them, and do we need new laws for this new technology?

Joining Huel Perkins and Charlie Langton on our panel for a debate over drones:

Harry Arnold, who rents these devices to police and fire departments with the goal of getting a bird's eye view of possible danger.

Andrew "Rocky" Raczkowski, who is a man that has been on the front lines of America's battle overseas.  He's a businessman and a colonel with the Army Reserves.

And Rep. Tom McMillin, who is asking if drones pose a threat to our privacy and safety as more of them take flight.
