Why you shouldn’t try to shoot down a suspected drone.... or so the government wants us to believe.

Probably because they belong to the U.S. government.

But come on! Does anyone seriously think charges would be brought against anyone if a shot-down drone was extra-terrerestrial in origin? Or even from Iran?
Depends where the shot-down object crashes. If it causes injury and/or monetary damage - they're flying over densely populated NJ - you could be liable.

I assume the drones are US security and/or military. I assume the drones are testing out some new technical capability like pinpointing locations of all the cell phones in a mile wide stripe, or computing detailed 3D maps of urban terrain, or something like that. I assume whatever capability they have is being developed for future urban conflict zones. As such, I find them interesting but not threatening.

Law enforcement is kind of petty, they absolutely would lol. A woman might be getting fifteen years just for threatening a health care agency after her claims were denied but she had no gun. They are doing it to set an example. Point is, they are that petty enough to do that, don't underestimate the amount of petty lol

@2ndtimeguy

Those drones aren't the size of SUVs.

Those are more like the kind teenage boys try to fly over my backyard when they suspect I might be sunbathing nude.
@beckyromero they show the footage online.
