doesnt matter if you use a gun or throw a beer bottle at it
sabotaging an aircraft is a federal felony

4. I certainly don't condone this and he should face the music...

but those realtor drones that buzz my own windows (2 houses down from their target) and just linger there have me furious. I know what I can and cannot do--and my complaints go unanswered but we DO need some privacy regulation of these drones. And I got some satisfaction when I saw a couple of a'holes out harassing wildlife on the open space with drones--as State Law prohibits such actions. They got ticketed by the CO Dept of Fish & Wildlife!

But, I know mostly we have to coexist--even with the bad actors. But, damn if I won't report the violators.
