Anyway, please stay safe and don't be afraid to defend yourself.

More on this splendid human being:
In now deleted tweets from 2015, it’s clear Rep. Maddox has always held racist beliefs. In an October 2015 tweet, Maddox responded to someone calling President Barack Obama a “coon” by saying that “Obama is not black. He is of African ancestry, not sharing the Black American heritage or experience.”
In a March 2015 tweet, Maddox said that “childhood sexual assault and neglect” was the reason for homosexuality and that she blamed the parents and LGBTQ people for their sexual preferences.
In a January 2015 tweet she claimed Islam is a “faith about destruction” and that there are no Islamic “hospitals, orphanages or universities.”
She's a genuine shit-person. 100% real human excrement propped up with modern technology to walk and talk sorta like a real human being!
I was about to ask who even is that? But now I’d rather forget.
New Jersey people need new glasses...
This bitch gonna shoot down actual manned aircraft, judging by the reports
She should have spent that money on kitchen decoration, or a hairdo.
Please, do NOT shoot at airborn targets, or any target where your are not certain a missed shot will safely land in an empty area.
Knowing the golden rules? No, that sounds like communism or something.
Did not a bunch of People shot at a Tornado, at one point?
Also shooting down a drone counts as shooting down an actual airplane, which is like, a super felony. So probably just don't.
Just fly your own drone and ram into their drone. Then you pull an uno reverse and claim they hit you first. FAA aint touching this, and cops are too lazy to do anything and will say its "Civil Matter"
Also, the drone falling could hit someone or something. So seriously, don't.
Yep, that's why birdshot is basically the only safe ammo that can be shot into the air unless you're in the middle of the ocean or something.
If it flies, it spies
Birdwatching goes both ways
c/birdsarentreal
GovCo owns the drones. The simple fact that they haven't shot them down means they own them.
This is a distraction. It's to distract people because for some reason there was a sudden unexpected explosion of class consciousness.
Stop talking about the fucking govt drones. Keep scaring billionaires.
The one I saw a picture of was a manned helicopter. (Flying in a legal area too .. which is why they aren't being shot down near a military base, because if they were a threat, in air they weren't allowed to fly in... They would be intercepted or shot down)
Anyone who thinks they stand a chance against drones with a gun hasn't been paying attention to what's happening in Ukraine.
Gonna pew pew a CEO in the back? Sure, guns work for that.
Trying to save your own life against a fast and agile target that needs way less precision than you to be effective and probably never even presents a target? Nah mate, you're fucked.
There are some, handheld firearms that are used as a last-ditch / cheap anti drone solution in Ukraine, by both sides.
Drum roll.....
Its shotguns.
Because they have a spread of multiple shot pellets instead of a single bullet.
Fucking obviously duh, they've been used to hunt small, evasive birds routinely, everywhere, for like 150+ years.
Hunting a nimble flying object with a sniper rifle is a laughably absurd idea.
This actual post from this woman is so stupid I would have thought it was from a 12 year old whose only experience with guns is from CoD... but nope, its a 50ish(?) year old woman.
Guess she's never hunted birds, and thinks its just the same as hunting deer or hogs or something???
Old people can be stupid too :-)
Also, people seem to be forgetting that shotguns don't only shoot shot or slugs:

I did not know an actual anti drone, net round existed!
Not especially useful against drones, nor open warfare, there are also less than lethal rubber rounds...
... and a self contained taser round:
https://www.forgottenweapons.com/taser-x12-xrep-a-taser-in-a-shotgun-shell/
I don't know if the xrep is still actually manufactured though.
Oh right! Dragon's breath! Illegal in half the country!
People have been basically homebrewing shot gun shells since shotguns have existed. Everything from flachetes, to bolos, to XREP - even idiots that have shoved a shell full of .17 hmr rounds to see what happens. I 100% know that homebrewed anti drone shells exist and range from tying fishing line around pellets, to just launching a rope.
Oh yeah, I was trying to stick to retailed products, but yes, homebrew shotgun rounds have been around for basically as long as shotguns.
Another kind of homebrew shot is coin shot:

I've heard anecdotally that people have been doing that for quite a while.

Now here's a thought... What about using drones to "take care of" a CEO? The risk of being caught would be lower, as you can be located hundreds of meters away or more. It's also relatively easy to acquire a drone, and you can make explosives with stuff you can buy at the hardware store.
(Disclaimer: This is just a thought experiment, I'm not dumb enough to try this, don't worry FBI :3)

Scoped gun for a drone OK yeah, you clearly know what you're doing.
I don’t know anything about shooting or why a scoped gun is a bad thing…I know she won’t shoot down a single drone with that thing though.
A scope limits your field of view. It makes it easier to hit far away things moving relatively slowly/predictably.
It would be the opposite of helpful against a fast/close small target. There's a reason duck hunters use shotguns.
Ah. Thank you. I thought it would be the limited number of shots you’d be able to take versus the oppurtunity to hit something vital in the you had.
$100 says she barely takes that thing past 100 yards...good luck hitting a drone 400+ yards from you moving at 60mph.

All she has in her house are succulents? That makes sense. They're literally the only things someone like her could possibly hope to keep alive. They need almost zero attention, maintenance, or moisture.
Just like her brain.

I'm not a gun person, but it seems to me like anyone who claims they can shoot down a drone with a rifle is also revealing themselves to not be a gun person.
