While I expect bunny huggers to be pretty damned stupid, flying a spycam over a gun club and expecting a different outcome than this is amazingly moronic.

I thought the Supreme court found a right to privacy in the US Constitution.

The nebulous SCOTUS’s “right to privacy” only extends to baby killers, not pidgeon killers.

I remember this from almost a year ago from an r/c flying forum. This is apparently an old story that this group is trying to bleed for all the sympathy and attention they possibly can. Funny it was shot down though.

Shark wasted at least $5k on that chopper, whereas a decent plane and camera would cost about 1k. The difference is that they would need skill to fly the plane and it’s unlikely that any of them have skills.

In a related story, neighboring municipality, at their last meeting, passed an ordinance that made it legal to discharge a firearm in the township. We do love our guns here ‘bouts.

The difference is that they would need skill to fly the plane and its unlikely that any of them have skills.They probably envisioned hovering a foot above the hunter's heads and really irritating them - never considered a "normal reaction to an unacceptable event".
Reminds me of one of "World's Dumbest" clips - teenagers had expensive RC car and sent it onto a golf course green and knocked some old geezer's ball around. he decided to tee up on the car and busted it to pieces - the kid went running from his hiding spot screaming at the guy. Funny as hell when libs reap the benefit of their stupidity...

I read this the other day and that story said the thing was shot down with a single shot.
Now that’s gun control.

I think they are saying the hunters used a rifle not a shotgun to bring down their spy. Point is shooting the birds is perfectly legal but is shooting video of the gun club legal. I would say not but lefty radicals like to make their own rules.

Hunters shooting birds use a shotgun loaded with bird shot.
I curious about pigeon hunting. I guess they mean doves. Yeah, I know they are interchangeable, but I’ve never heard of anyone going pigeon hunting. Must be a Yankee thing.

It's not really Hunting it's more like a Trap Shoot
This is an Annual Shoot in PA and it has been going on for decades.
I'm not sure if they raise the Pigeons or trap them for this event, but they are released from cages at the command of "PULL".

I’m sorry but as a avid gun owner myself, I find those that get off shooting animals for fun (ESPECIALLY Safari hunters) mentally ill. I hold such people in disdain and utter disgust.
