Joan Lowy<\/strong> People who fire guns at drones are endangering the public and property and could be prosecuted or fined, the Federal Aviation Administration warned Friday.<\/p>\n The FAA released a statement in response to questions about an ordinance under consideration in the tiny farming community of Deer Trail, Colo., that would encourage hunters to shoot down drowns. The administration reminded the public that it regulates the nation\u2019s airspace, including the airspace over cities and towns.<\/p>\n A drone \u201chit by gunfire could crash, causing damage to persons or property on the ground, or it could collide with other objects in the air,\u201d the statement said. \u201cShooting at an unmanned aircraft could result in criminal or civil liability, just as would firing at a manned airplane.\u201d<\/p>\n Read More<\/a><\/p>\n <!– <\/p>\n –><\/p>\n This article was posted: Friday, July 19, 2013 at 3:13 pm<\/p>\n Tags: domestic spying<\/a>, drones<\/a>, police state<\/a><\/p>\n
