    Also, let me point out that flying a drone at an armed person is an excellent method of getting them to shoot at it. And while drones are rather hard to hit, schools tend to be full of kids who are much easier to hit.

    Also, who is going to operate this? And train on it? It’s not easy to do this, so I’m assuming it’ll be untrained morons fucking things up as usual.

      Usually, the scheme is remotely stationed pilots at a facility, as long as the internet stays live, at least. One or two teams can cover most the nation.

      But yeah.

      Also they were “inspired” by Ukrainian drones- the ones that fly in and explode. Nobody is using pepper balls in wartime.
