    I propose the state stops flying drones and blaming them on foreign actors when it’s all a stunt to distract the public from Luigi and it’s all bullshit anyway.

    Shooting bullets into the air is a good way to get people killed. They just become ballistics, and what goes up must come down.

    It’s because drones have potential to be a legitimate threat to the monopoly on violence.

    If you want to sink probate yachts, underwater drones work better than airborne.

    Does Yemen have a git repo with instructions?

      I was driving home on the southbound 5 near Seattle, when suddenly this yacht came our of nowhere man. If it wasn’t for the old guy fucking a consenting 18 year old, I would have noticed traffic and the other guy in front of me also looking intensely at the bouncing tits.

      I propose we have a law against sexual activity for very old men who are CEOs. They should run instead and you can imagine many ways to make that very effective. Some would suggest that just a car could do it. But I disagree because we need the activities to last, and a car would be too easy. I propose a bull run. Every Saturday and Sunday and other days that may happen in between, we’ll bring old men And women, both, into a closed off street and we’ll release a bull or two in there. I figure there would be some running. Enough for television. Once its over, we bring back the bulls to pasture and give them all that is necessary for a good run every now and then.

      I had an idea about a plastic sub controlled by a ps3 controller where CEOs could go check out Titanic. But I just don’t have that sort of money. I do, I mean I can find a barrel for 50 bucks but, I mean, a good go pro. Nah, too fancy. I would still to bulls, but they tend to not like it.

    This if fuckin’ stupid. The country is going nuts I swear. Nothing like a good mass hysteria to really bring the nation together.

    I bet real estate companies are seriously pissed off about this. They are getting very reliant on drone photography for properties.

      It’s already illegal to shoot at things in the sky unless you’re a government agent or soldier. And they aren’t about to start dropping things unless drones are getting in the way of stuff on the joint military base in NJ or at Newark Liberty Airport.

      I dont think it works like that.

      The planes that were shot landing in Hati didn’t have mechanical issues. If a stray bullet hits an aircraft, the biggest risk is that it hits a human on that aircraft afaict

    I wish they’d ban them everywhere except your own private property, or areas designated for rc plane flying. Also, land owners should have the right to shoot any drone flying over their property down.

    But I thought it was just satellites and meteors and bad captures of airplanes on cellphone cameras. That’s what we’ve been told. Who would have thunk 🤔
