Honestly it amazes me that some people think it's ok to do this. Very uninformed. Maybe this guy will actually learn something from all this.

I agree totally! In America today and during these wacko times, "IGNORANCE IS BLISS"! But, it won't keep you out of Jail.
I had a neighbor down the road from me, that said he would shoot it out of the sky if it flew over his property. I told him to get a good lawyer and prepare for the men in black suits and sunglasses to pay him a visit!
The guy is just an idiot!

I had that exact neighbor back in Idaho. I brought him out with me one day to show him what I do and he now owns an XSP. LOL

I think instead of getting mad at them ask them to stick around and show what you are doing how it works etc.

if i had a nice spread and the wife sunbathed nude, I too would be shooting drones down, not with a shotgun of course , but with other tactics

 

[Catweazle]

Same laws are in Australia. Illegal to have a pot shot at a drone. Bullet might hit the helicopter above it !

Not quite the helicopter above, but rather bullets do come down and may hurt or kill someone.

 

[flyingfool]

why use bullets??? there are other ways, just because you own a hammer doesnt mean you use it to turn a bolt....
