You know if you shoot at the drones and miss a little low, you might take down the power line for a few thousand people.

Maybe Fedzilla shouldn’t be employing legions of UAV and UAS to spy on American Citizens. Maybe “a few thousand people” should vote for politicians who won’t tolerate gross violations of the Fourth Amendment.

A low velocity .22 probably won’t damage a power line & anyway a perching drone will be larger than any bird.

Seems that the best way to avoid hitting a power line is for the line of fire to be parallel to the line.

Well if you can’t shoot, don’t! I doubt seriously they will be charging on the high tension lines, so probably just a block or two! I guess we should all just bend over because fighting back is just too darn risky.
