Business as usual for government
Instead, the rules are punishing the most responsible drone flyers in an effort to target the least responsible.
Of course! That's EXACTLY what government mostly does, punish the law-abiding in some misguided attempt to stop criminals from doing criminal things. It works so well, too. Not. So then we need MORE of the same sort of laws. Lather, rinse, repeat. Freedom? You must be joking!
