This should bring to a peaceful close any further discussion of restrictions of gun rights.  Americans need them to shoot down autonomous drones.

Ah, mutual assured drone destruction.  The mothers against drunk driving are not going to like having to share their acronym.

 

We knew this was coming several years ago when the quad rotor drones began to show up and didn’t cost much: they could be made into untraceable weapons.  It wouldn’t even be hard to do if one didn’t care who was the victim, such as a terrorist would do.  The bad guy could rig one of those to fly over a crowded stadium, drop flour or powdered sugar, get the infidels to stampede.

 

Regarding homeland defense, a box of shells for Mister Twelve Gage is cheaper and more reliable.
