It's good to be prepared before the need arises. These can be made, unused, put away for a rainy day. Maybe it'll never be needed.

This drone stuff is no joke, any dumb terrorist/criminal fuck with a few hundred dollars can get a drone & do terrible things. Evil people can never just be allowed to have the upper hand, with no countermeasures.

Better to be judged by twelve than carried by six.

In any case...it's either stuff like this, or jamming propellers, or steel birdshot. We've all seen the Ukrainian drone footage.
