Re: The Mexican immigrant who set up a global drone firm
#2A couple thoughts here:
1) Great to see Mr. Munoz getting some press for himself since it's been Chris Anderson getting all the attention until now with his involvement in 3d Robotics. A bit sad that it's in the context of Munoz being "a mexican immigrant" rather that merely being "an awesome human" but I guess that's the angle here
2) There is a big rift between the UAV community and the general public regarding terminology. No one - not a single person as far as I can tell - in the community calls them "drones" because it is an ugly word and it's associated with machines that fly to pakistan and murder people. Everyone - every single person - outside the UAV community does call them drones. I see no solution to this except for the fact that if you're a part of that community and you meet someone else who is, and you call it a UAV or multirotor, they know you're "in" which is sort of cool I guess ;-)

#4All feel good fuzzies about American dream this and that aside.... let me get this straight, he's an illegal alien creating an illegal business with illegal documents in order to break laws by flying drones for commercial purposes?

He's not an illegal alien. In the article, he said that he has a greencard (he's probably naturalized by now). And commercial drones are used by many industries legally - film being one of them.

he was an illegal resident for 8 months in 2007 and not a single part of his business is illegal. I would like to see some proofs of your ridiculous claims.

You do know that there's no logical reason why there are countries to begin with?
All countries are, are "people" with fences and guns, willing to slaughter people they don't like.

What part of "waiting for the green card" did you miss?
Yes, it sucks when an immigrant can do a better job than you huh. But don't worry, between the massive immigration BS, absurd healthcare costs and other things there's less and less reasons for someone to immigrate (legally, or even illegally) to the US

I'm pretty sure no one stays illegally for only 8 months than gets a Greencard after that time.
