THE DRONES!!! STOP THE DRONES!

Blink-182's Tom DeLonge has shared his thoughts on the recent drone sightings in New Jersey, suggesting a connection to UFOs sighted in the 1960s.

This past Saturday, he shared a post on social media, proposing a theory about the mass drone sightings that have been reported across the Garden State in recent weeks.

“The drones that are being discussed, can hover for six hours, and then disappear once they are spotted,” DeLonge wrote on Instagram. “This is why it’s been hard to get facts from any US Agency. Some of them can even move into the ocean, and then back up to the air. Which is called ‘transmedium travel.’ A very hard thing to do.”
“There’s a strong possibility that these drones are ‘mimicking’ other aircraft,” the Blink-182 co-founder speculated, sharing a 1960s document about a military base that had “experienced a considerable number of reports of unidentified flying objects.”
“It’s all something to consider, and [although] we don’t have all the facts yet, we do know that UFOs play with ‘mimicry’ and that has been known for quite some time. Why? To get us to notice them without a major freak out? Who knows… but well, we are noticing nonetheless.”

Despite the lack of concrete answers, U.S. Homeland Security Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas has confirmed that some objects are drones, and the government is investigating the situation.
