While I don't at all agree that drones should be used domestically, having grown up in Mesa County, I might have a good guess as to why they use them. Outside of Grand Junction and Fruita, there is a lot of open desert space where a lot of drug related activity takes place. The area has a pretty big meth and a growing heroine problem and they're probably working to stop some of it.
This is one of the dumbest comments I've seen. If a private company wants to make money when there is a ton of competition in the space, they HAVE to satisfy their customers or they won't make money.
