Off topic thread **** numbers, cyclists, and dentists who shoot lions

I won't get into the gun side of things, because I don't care to address it nor do I have the energy.

That being said, the cynical side of me loves the drone being shot down. All the drone guys I've met are total *****. They don't care about anything except their drone. I've used drones for marketing before and I always alert the immediate neighbors beforehand.

I don't see how flying a low level drone over someone's house isn't an invasion of privacy.

Also- a bunch of drone dicks really disrupted fire fighting efforts on the Cajon pass

Yup, it's all about them and their toy.

And talk about poor timing, lol. This is incredible.

Yep. The "serious" element here (like RP said, setting the firearm element aside) is, how should the guy have dealt with it? Video'd the drone and then reported it to the Authorities (maybe on a child porn complaint)? Zapped the drone with some kinda' frequency-scrambling beam? Gotten his own drone and "returned the favor" to the operator (so then we have a South Park episode)??

Being serious here: from what I know using a frequency scrambler could be far bigger crime than firing a weapon because you are then getting in to Federal crimes.
I know the penalty for using cell phone scrambers are pretty stiff

Guess the EMP plan is out of the question.

Back to the drawing board.

Those things are insanely expensive. The gun is like $500 and the nets runs about $75 a piece and are really hard to re-use.

Also would they work on a drone? they catch animals by taking away use of their appendages while a drone uses rotors

I'd never do it, but you gotta admit, shooting someone's drone down would be fun.

I'd wager it'd work, though I don't know if they tested how far upward they can shoot. It'd likely have to be fairly close to the ground.

Also, it would likely do some damage (maybe only minimal) to the net and almost certainly would damage the drone since it likely couldn't fly and would fall to the ground, never mind any damage caused by the netting getting into moving parts.

You avoid the discharge of a firearm, though, so you're better off legally, and I would hazard the damage wouldn't be as severe as, say, a shotgun blast in case you had to pay for it.

Hmm, never saw a single for that. It's not my all-time favorite song, but some of the others were already taken when I started using it on teh interwebs.

There's pictures and videos of the fire all over the news and the internet that were legally acquired either by news crew or the firefighters themselves. Why the **** do people still need to take pictures?

Because they want to be paparazzi and sell them
