I just don't believe we will see a day when tiny drones with epipens pose a greater threat than guns.
- chongli 7y agoWhat sets it apart from conventional explosives is that it's decentralized. A single attacker can distribute these things all over a city. This makes it much more difficult to mitigate the threat, let alone apprehend the attacker.
