Or at the least, very very strictly regulate who has what.

People with a set of quadcopters, and a box of hand-grenades could sit a couple of kilometers from a target, load up the quadcopter, fly it to a target, drop the grenade from above or lob it from a short distance, and have the quadcopter back to reload in under a minute.<br /><br />Oh, and being indoors would be exactly perfect defense against them either: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IAzrGuOqB0gDanackhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02601944007304070805noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4912713243046142041.post-57594208526218119812015-04-30T10:17:15.235-05:002015-04-30T10:17:15.235-05:00I see the black dot you're referring to.
