If you fly a drone over my property, we get to find out how effective the various loads of 12 gauge shot shells are.
Sure, other than the fact that shooting at any aircraft - manned or otherwise - is a federal felony.
I don't care about your excuses. I think you should be banned from flying over a property if the property owner deems he doesn't want you flying over his property
Of course you also think that a person flying a Cessna at a 1000 feet should have to check with every landowner below his flight path, too, right? No?
Why? Be very, very specific.
I find this a perfectly reasonable law.
So you're also in favor of banning park tourists from using bicycles, right? Because far more people are injured and even killed in bike/pedestrian collisions every year than by 3-pound plastic toy multirotors. And you're probably also in favor of banning the noisy, smelly, routinely lethal motor vehicles that people use to get to and from those public spaces, right? Because those things - unlike drones - actually are involved in thousands of deaths every year.
Absolutely. Nothing better than sightseeing through a swarm of drones, relaxing in the peaceful atmosphere of buzzing electric motors, marvelling in the sight of your fellow tourists getting smashed in the head.
Yeah, those tourists getting smashed in the head by drones - that's been a real problem. Other than the fact that I'll bet you can't cite actual cases of such things happening that come even CLOSE to the number of people who are killed in motor vehicle accidents going to, moving within, and leaving public spaces.
You don't like the noise? How about you make arrangements to make sure that my trip to a public space is in no way interrupted by screaming kids, barking dogs, music being played from rolled-down car windows, and the like? Thanks.
I think this is GREAT.
That's awesome. I think it would also be great to never have to worry about you sneezing, or having a stroke, or being momentarily distracted, or having a mechanical failure as you drive your car to wherever you fly your non-crap drones. Because unlike the countless deaths we're seeing by drones (let's see... essentially none whatsoever despite untold hundreds of thousands, even millions in use), people are actually killed for real dead in car accidents every single day.
Cars ARE DANGEROUS when they are large enough to carry self righteous operators of non-crap drones. A pedestrian collision at even 5mph could be LETHAL.
See how this works? The Nanny State pendulum can swing in several directions.
But you do have an expectation of a drone not falling on your head or flying in your face.
You also have an expectation of not being bitten by a dog, hit by a car, run into by a person on a bicycle or using rollerblades. New Zealand should definitely make sure that nobody be allowed to drive a car to a public space, just in case. Or ride a bicycle - think of what might happen! And kids running around - total tripping hazards, so definitely no children allowed out of the house, anywhere.
There, feeling more rational now? No? Ah.
Except, of course, at 1000 light years away
You obviously haven't been watching enough hard science documentaries on The Learning Channel, and don't understand the important role that our ancient pyramids have played in transmitting psycho-electrical immortality radiation towards the stars. Please try to keep up.
What happens to first determining if there was any criminal intent...
You can't really have criminal intent to eat a piece of toast at your breakfast table, but you can have criminal intent to kill someone. What's the difference? Killing someone is a crime. So you have to know if something is a crime before you can determine if the plan to do it is reflective of criminal intent.
...or adverse consequences?
If you plan to murder someone, and even attempt the act, but the intended victim is unaware that you took a shot at them with your silienced movie-quality assassin's rifle and missed
I do think many of them are peeping Toms who need to have their remote control aircraft shot out of the sky on a regular basis.
Based on? Specifically.
With your bare hands?!?
