Is this accurate? I haven’t read the full text of the law but I thought it meant no weaponized drones.
- krisoft 3y ago> I thought it meant no weaponized drones. That is correct. It says this: " Sec. 18. Use of weapons. A law enforcement agency operating a drone under this Act is prohibited from equipping or using on a drone any firearm, weaponized laser, kinetic impact projectile, chemical agent or irritant, or any other lethal or non-lethal weapon."
