The article requires a subscription to read, but I can guess what it proposes.
The reason to register drones is because it is only a matter of time before someone crashes one into an airplane or seriously injures someone on the ground. The drone will be damaged and recovered by the authorities. The only way to identify the culprit would be through registration.
Guns on the other hand are seldom left behind, and when used for criminal purposes are most likely stolen anyway.
The purpose of gun registration is not to solve crimes, but to identify gun owners when the government decides to confiscate our guns.
Furthermore, guns are covered by the second amendment. There is no such right to fly drones in public air space. |

TO REMEMBER |
| Besides the advantage of being armed, which the Americans possess over the people of almost every other nation, the existence of subordinate governments, to which the people are attached, and by which the militia officers are appointed, forms a barrier against the enterprises of ambition, more insurmountable than any which a simple government of any form can admit of. Notwithstanding the military establishments in the several kingdoms of Europe, which are carried as far as the public resources will bear, the governments are afraid to trust the people with arms. — James Madison, The Federalist Papers, No. 46 |
