Creator of Flying Gun Drone Investigated by FAABy Joshua Krause This isnt the first time this has been done, but it has raised the ire of the FAA. Theyre not sure if what he created was legal, and theyre currently in the process of searching through what I assume is the vast and arbitrary list of federal laws, to see if hes done anything illegal. While local authorities dont believe he violated any of Connecticuts laws, the FAA thinks itll find something at the federal level. Some drone enthusiasts are obviously concerned, since this could lead to more regulation of their hobby. Attorney and drone advocate, Peter Sachs, told ABC news that There are countless ways that drones can be useful. Using one as a remote-controlled weapon is not one of them, and I question the judgment of anyone who would attempt to do so. So far there is no word on whether or not he plans to sue the Defense Department for their fleet of automated war machines (I kid of course). Joshua Krause is a reporter, writer and researcher at The Daily Sheeple. He was born and raised in the Bay Area and is a freelance writer and author. You can follow Joshuas reports at Facebook or on his personal Twitter. Joshuas website is Strange Danger . The idiot should get some heat. Merely from the fact of allowing himself to be identified. The military did this years ago, why should this young man be harassed by the lefts bureaucracy? Just like ultralights are unregulated because they dont exceed a low altitude, this drone never got more than a few feet off the ground. Its just a project, an experiment. Are there laws against carrying weapons while piloting ultralights? Is he flying it about his neighborhood and town, terrorizing citizens and interfering with Police revenue generating operations? The authorities want to be the only ones with weapons, so they can keep us all safe (controlled). Not to mention, theres a guy on YouTube with a machine gun mounted on a drone. Of course, its OK for police and military to have weaponised drones, but as soon as Joe Public do the same thing, it must be illegal.
