The drones used by LE and the govt. are roughly the size of a paper clip. You'll never know it is around.

There are a lot of legitimate uses of drones. A close friend is a photographer and uses one to get some really amazing shots from angles that would be impossible without it. This includes video and still photography.

I recent saw an outdoor wedding he videoed. He got some of the same angles you see from the video cameras you see suspended above football stadiums now that are operated with cables.

Like guns or anything else they can be used for good or bad.

Yes, there are legitimate purposes for camera drones. But not over private property without the owner's permission!

You've never read a news paper article, or seen a news report of a peeping Tom being caught. Some perv with a hidden camera in a restroom, changing room, or locker room. You've never heard of someone peeping in Windows. Nobody has ever been arrested for stalking.
You must live in a very special place......In your mind anyhow.

How did we miss this?

Shooting at a drone is probably illegal and dangerous to others.
