I don’t care for their liberalism but I’m against destroying someone else’s private property just for the heck of it.
Well, then, go ahead and fly your spy-camera equipped private property over someone else’s lawfully owned private property and announce that your purpose in so doing will be to spy on them for reasons hostile to them, and they might be expected to respond.
At that point, ideology hardly matters.
So some PETA person’s little toy was brought down. Who cares?
