Drones

It's so well known that not only are we actively using them in other countries, we are actively promoting them here. We're told that ours here won't be armed since they're just for news gathering or finding lost kids or some such other harmless sounding reason. At any rate, we're not supposed to worry about them being all over our skies.

They're easy enough to build. The only thing complicated seems to be the electronics that they put on board. That part doesn't seem insurmountable either since more electronic geeks are being created every day. A number of other countries seem to have drones in production too. How long before they're using them on us?

Even as our gov't seems to be trying to get as many guns away from people as they can, how many people might be building drones in their garages? For years my business has sold fasteners to people who build airplanes in their garages as a hobby so it would seem that drones would be even simpler.

Even with all of our paraphernalia that could take them down, it would be daunting if a whole lot were released at one time. Some would be sure to get through.

My point here is that for all of the ridiculous hoops that people are being made to jump through in the name of 'safety', it's a flagrant waste of a lot of money and freedoms that could be better used. After all, it's not as though these efforts have actually prevented much of anything. The mass shootings seem to have increased along with bombings and deadly mailings.

How far will all of this go?
 
Really? "Trying to take as many guns away from people"? What legislation has been proposed that would take guns away from anyone?

They're working on it. Right now a lot of places have 'rewards' for turning them in, but they're closing in on other methods. In the meantime, have you tried to buy any ammunition lately?
 
Ammunition? Welcome to the free market.....it certainly isn't due to any federal legislation.

By the way...if someone buys a gun from you are they "taking it away"? Just wondered....because you implied government is confiscating guns and then point to buyback programs as confiscation....

No. I'm not paranoid and trying to stock up on thousands of rounds of ammunition in fear of bombs at marathons or Federal agents taking my guns. But then again, I don't have a gun, so I wouldn't have any need to try and buy ammunition.
