But consider: What if a drone bears a weapon — as some police departments may some day soon, or as a do-it-yourselfer could rig up?
The government would surely say such a drone must be registered. And the NRA would likely counter that, well, no, a flying gun is still a gun, and therefore immune from regulation.
In fact, we here put the question to NRA chicken-hawk mouthpiece Wayne LaPierre: Do you agree that weaponized drones could be — should be — registered and regulated, if not banned? |

| So flying weapons should be registered. That should stop them from doing anything bad. You know, like car registration prevents drunk driving. |

TO REMEMBER |
| "Some people think that the Second Amendment is an outdated relic of an earlier time. Doubtless some also think that constitutional protections of other rights are outdated relics of earlier times. We The People own those rights regardless, unless and until We The People repeal them. For those who believe it to be outdated, the Second Amendment provides a good test of whether their allegiance is really to the Constitution of the United States, or only to their preferences in public policies and audiences. The Constitution is law, not vague aspirations, and we are obligated to protect, defend, and apply it. If the Second Amendment were truly an outdated relic, the Constitution provides a method for repeal. The Constitution does not furnish the federal courts with an eraser." --9th Circuit Court Judge Andrew Kleinfeld, dissenting opinion in which the court refused to rehear the case while citing deeply flawed anti-Second Amendment nonsense (Nordyke v. King; opinion filed April 5, 2004) |
