I guess it is dangerous to do that in a densely populated area. He would wait for them to get low and hit em with the bird shot.
Still I think his energy would be better spent talking to our local government about setting up a drone ban.
- DoreenMichele 7y agoHobos still exist. They typically try to be quiet and go unnoticed so they won't be rousted by local law enforcement. Sure, lots of folks see homeless individuals as less than human and would happily say "Let's shoot them! Problem solved!" But if some fine upstanding citizen's stray bullet is tracked back to him, it's potentially felony manslaughter anyway.
- GordonS 7y agoMaybe I'm missing something, but what on earth has this got to do with the parent comment?!
- DoreenMichele 7y agoJust because you don't see people and you think the neighbor kids are at school doesn't mean there aren't people around that could be hit by a stray bullet. Maybe even people actively trying to not be seen, though they aren't thieves casing the house or whatever. They are just extremely poor. I spent nearly six years homeless. I used to see drones above my tent at night when camped at the foot of some bluffs below expensive housing. I don't believe the people in the expensive housing had any idea I was there. I did my best to have tree cover, to come in under cover of darkness and remain quiet and so forth. I was trying to avoid telling that personal anecdote because I'm routinely given shit for telling my personal anecdotes to explain what I mean.
- svieira 7y agoTo give a voice to the silent - thank you Doreen for telling your story! You have a unique insight into the problems of the homeless and I for one am grateful to you for sharing it.
