Fly them into the engines of a full 777 on takeoff and you will see the threat.
And THAT is why they should be charged with felony endangerment or its English equivalent.
Well, identify the drone pilot then. It's not as easy as you think.
True, that. The first step, then, is to down the drone. I dunno - #4 birdshot?
"Well Reginald at least you didn't bring one of those new fangled over and under things.. or worse, one of those awful looking pump-action guns so loved by our colonial cousins..!!"
All our firearms laws hinge on the notion of 'good reason'. Target shooting, pest and vermin control, deer stalking, game and wildfowl shooting, all are 'good reasons' to own firearms in UK/GB. So I would hazard a guess that, those goodly folk, who eat toast would, lawfully, be in possession of your aforesaid butter knife. However, the said butter knife would, I fear, have to pass certain criterion; blade length no longer than three inches and the blade, if fixed would have to be covered, unless in use. Also, if the blade folded it must not be of the type that lock open, or have an assisted opening mechanism like with a switch-blade. Of course, as we have some 43 county (like State Police) police forces there will, undoubtedly, be 43 different interpretations to what I have described... Forget all the firearms training courses from A to Z, over here you are best served with a law degree if you want to understand our firearms legislation.
And what happens if one of the planes these terrorists down contain American citizens?
I'm not a big fan of more government control, but I do think the fact that anyone can buy and fly these with essentially no regulation is asking for trouble. So many possibilities for bad behavior with them, from downing airliners to dropping bombs or bio-weapons.
Ummm, I like that bird hunter’s tie!
And that wont work old bean..
Just for you, Sir..
