Did you almost prang a 737 jet with a drone over Dallas? The FAA would like a word

We're an idiot away from a complete drone ban

I said it before, and say it again. It only takes a single imbecile to fatally crash a plane and all these nice toys will be banned and considered terrorist weapons. The sad part is that the immense majority of drone owners are responsible and careful with where and how they fly them.

But the few idiots -and the laser pointer analogy above is perfect- won't stop trying until they do it. It will make big news, the culprit will be found, arrested, charged and his life destroyed by the consequences of his/her acts. Not a bad punishment considering the dead passengers his drone will leave behind.

But we'll also lose our nice toys.
