Good. Those pervs were violating his airspace.
No, they werent. Either part.

There's a real chance that in this story, the shooter is the crazy man and the drone operators were innocent victims.
But stuff like that can happen now, it will happen more often, and the cameras will get better. I do not see an actual reason why these flying cameras need to be allowed outside of one's own private property.
Hell, watch the video I embedded. You can be vertically above your own house and film your neighbour perfectly. So I'd say that this also needs to be restricted.
But it didn't. To me, this was an act of self-defense. Seriously.
Well yes, but the way I read the story, the drone operators were pissed about their property being damaged and were about to enter his premises. I would not tolerate that, either, if I had the means to prevent it.

If these same people used a really long selfie stick to film across my fence and then tried to enter my premises after I destroy said cell phone, I probably would.
Something I'm reading on another forum:
A guy I've flown with has modified his to fire 22 cal. and he targets very accurately through his OSD. I would love to see someone shoot at him with a paintball gun. I have also successfully launched a model rocket sideways from mine using a pulse switch and the onboard 12 volt power supply. With a little thought I could put some form of explosive in the nose. The drone community is way out in front of the "Imma shot dat fricker down if it crosses my property line" crowd.
Surveillance could be the least of our worries.
Yes they were. Both parts.
...but who do you believe? The shooter or the drone pilot and his flight data (Videer posted the link)?
I guess we will have to keep posting this link. They were NOT in his property. He was shooting at things in public airspace.
Who will the gun nutters shoot when Google Earth tech reaches the point where anyone with an internet connection can read the date on a quarter laying on any sidewalk anywhere in the world?
Serious question here, where does your property end and public airspace begin?
