I'm sorry fellow pilots. Just because you have the right to be annoying doesn't mean you should. We all know very well, people are annoyed by the sound and concerned about the photos we can take. if you fly over someone's house or land, you're violating their privacy, no matter what the law says. Unfortunately, in today's society common sense and common courtesy aren't common anymore. People don't shoot at drones for sport. They shoot because they're [Edited by Moderator]. All we'll get by pushing the envelope is more laws restricting our hobby.
The difference is that the sUAS pilot did not commit a crime and the homeowner did.
I personally am not asking for more laws and I don't think anyone else here is. We have enough laws already. We are asking the FAA, DOJ, FBI, etc to enforce the laws already on the books and stop throwing us under the bus. We follow the rules, get the required certifications and not the dot gov agencies need to step up and do their job.You are simply asking for more laws with this comment. Laws against flying over someone's land, or house, or family when at the beach. Instead, I am suggesting that, if we set the example, they wont have to make a law. Already lots of communities are enacting such laws. Do you really want more?

Yes. I do. Why the heck not?So you believe that, because you get the certs, you have the right to fly over someone's property without asking?

I personally believe the FAA and the DOJ don't want to prosecute hoping this hobby gets "out of hand" and they can outright ban them. Much like gun control, add more and more restrictions, knowing good and well it does nothing to make things better in hopes to ban them.
As for carrying, Nevada is an open carry state (but for how much longer I don't know with all the California transplant politicians and voters) and I have had my CCW since '92 and don't go into the desert without carrying whether flying or not. There are often people target shooting out there, even though it is not allowed, but I steer clear of them and they don't bother me. I just take precautions to protect my equipment and my self from nefarious elements in this loony world.
You can disagree all you want but you are still wrong as the laws state otherwise, and unless they are changed I will fly wherever it is legally permissible. If someone shoots down my aircraft I will bother the FBI and FAA until they do their jobs. I for one am not testing,paying,and being regulated to death without the laws being enforced on both sides.Well, we don't agree on that, but I would offer a little advice to you. Stay out of 12 gauge range...

Maybe Canyon Mike will be the next to be shot down and then he will see this differently.
