There are a hundred good reasons to regulate drones, and this must be the worst.

Hmm, as Ukraine shows, they'll be mighty handy when the revolution comes ;}

Honestly with all these Drone = CCP rhetoric in the news... I'm kinda scared to fly drones nowadays especially under this admin since... well I'm ethnic Chinese and I was born in China so I have this paranoid of being falsely accused of being a "CCP Spy" or some bullshit like that... idk if I'd feel safe flying drones anymore... not since january 2025 ... not in the forseeable future...

so um... pls white dudes that were born here... use your privilage to your advantage, I'm counting on y'all

You know... be the SovCit that we need in these trying times... law is just a piece of paper... let y'all drones fly free

If you've got nothing to hide, you have nothing to fear.

Party of “small government” I guess we should all buy drones

Maybe we’ll see a resurgence of kite photography. Modern camera tech should make it especially light and awesome.

No problem.

Strap a gun to the drone, use your 2A freedoms.
