Comment Re:Right to Privacy in One's Backyard? (Score 1, Informative) 1197

Here's a key detail from the article:

there are actually a number of juicy details in the article:

It wasn't long before the drone's owners appeared.

"Four guys came over to confront me about it, and I happened to be armed, so that changed their minds," Merideth said.

hmm, sounds a little aggressive...

"They asked me, 'Are you the S-O-B that shot my drone?' and I said, 'Yes I am,'" he said. "I had my 40mm Glock on me and they started toward me and I told them, 'If you cross my sidewalk, there's gonna be another shooting.'"

ok that's very aggressive.

"Because our rights are being trampled daily," he said. "Not on a local level only - but on a state and federal level."

why did he have to bring the tea party into this?

He was booked into the Bullitt County Detention Center, and released on Monday.

how appropriate!

So he should have gotten a large net that is used to catch bats, wait for the owner to show up wanting it back to get their identification?

the summary doesn't say how high the drone was... I wonder if he could have pegged it with a football or a baseball. that probably would have done the trick. people in Kentucky have good throwing arms...
