"no deterrent whatsoever"?
I really don't think this is correct. It may not be a foolproof deterrent, but it's certainly a deterrent.
I don't like when this argument is trotted out for gun control and I don't like it here.
- madaxe_again 9y agoHow is it a deterrent? Honestly, I can't see it. If I currently owned an unregistered drone and was using it to shunt contraband into prison, how would this legislation change anything for me? It wouldn't increase my downside. Also, with guns, it's you, there, holding the gun, so it can be enforced. With drones, you could be in a moving car a mile away. How does that get enforced?
- EliRivers 9y agoWell, suddenly simply being in possession of the unlicensed drone is an offence, so you're now at risk every second its in your car or in your house. Being a criminal, you probably interact with the police more often than non-criminals, and if they find it in your house or car or in some other way in your possession, they've got you.
