Drones

[A.J. Holst]

A few weeks ago I posted the killer drone simulation video.

It appears the technology is not as futuristically sci-fi as I thought

Bumping because the military aren’t the only ones who have seen the utility of drones in urban engagements. 

The article is light on details because the FBI is being a bit tight-lipped about it, but there’s a lot that can be inferred by the information that was provided

There are some “less than lethal” options that would kill a drone (Bean bags, Rubber bullets, etc), happy hunting. “Technology” if you want to call it that, will catch up. Killing and blinding drones without danger to those around will soon become common place.

And here we go again, legislators thinking more laws will stop the illegal use of drones.  They tried registration, they tried licensing and now want manufacturers to make it easier to ID the pilot...like the criminals are not going to disable that.
