Drone no-fly zones

I didn't mean you being ignorant of the law, you are one of the informed. Those drones are flying off the shelf and have been. Lots of people are going to claim they didn't know. I do wonder if they will be changing the packaging on drones to state that this product does need to be registered. I always wonder if the feds do this stuff just to generate revenue and to show they are in control.

 

Drones have been used for several years to harass hunters on legal hunting trips. On private property. On public lands. They have been used to chase and scatter game, and drive it away from hunters. (Have also driven deer into traffic).
So you are right. Fools have caused your sport to be regulated. (More government is never good) so keep the blame where it truly belongs, and on those who have abused others, and spying in windows.
Enjoy your sport, have fun. Keep it off my property.
Fly a drone over my land, and I will remove the problem. I've had enough.

 

Ummm...of course I will, unless I forget or lose my drone by then...

 

Sounds like me if you hunt on my property...

 

Property lines matter. I hunt on private lands, only with written permission, and the blessing of the owner.

 

This move by the government seriously angers me. It feels like yet another over-reaching straw added to this camels back by an out-of-control government. I simply want to fly a battery-operated toy on my own property, but the clowns in Washington demand that I ask them permission first. Grrrr.

 

I'd like to lay claim to the air space above my property and require anyone...especially the government...to apply for a permit to enter it. Where in the Constitution did we give the government the power to lay claim to the air above our property? I think the 10th Amendment applies: "The powers not delegated to the United States by the Constitution, nor prohibited by it to the States, are reserved to the States respectively, or to the people."

 

Give'em Hell

I see this issue turning into more of a Privacy issue than a Trespassing Issue. Because lets face it the Drones that have Cameras, the Cameras are only going to improve and get better. So to Say its about Trespassing seems like just the tip of the Iceberg Issue.

 

I consider property rights, voyeurism and government overstepping their powers as separate issues. First I want to protect my property rights, second I want to keep prying eyes at bay, third, the government needs to keep their grubby hands out of both.

 

Yeah, well...I don't get a lot of traffic over my little piece of airspace...and nothing in range of my 12ga, so don't hold your breath waiting for me to martyr myself financially to become a test case.
