I saw a video on youtube (Mark Dice) where he said an armed drone killed several people on a beach. I could not find a story to link on it so I don't know if it's legit or not. So I did not link the video.

I was wondering if they will be protected by the 2nd amendment? Could be interesting.

Pretty shortly it will not be just drones: Dubai to get pilotless flying taxi service - CNN.com. Of course there will always be the other side that utilizes our technology against us and the larger the drone, car or taxi; the greater the damage it could potentially inflict.

No law will stop a person who wants to murder people with a drone from doing so.

That would just be more target practice for Missourians.

It was a dramatization. Search for Hawaii Five-O - Killer Machine.

But it's technically possible.

No law will stop any person desiring to commit murder, drone or not. But without the laws, there'd be no punishment for those murders. Doesn't seem like a very good plan.

So, by that logic, we need to outlaw cars in order to punish anyone who purposely runs over and kills another person?
