(OP) User ID: 5898996 United States10/18/2019 04:58 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Possibly a perv cop? The drone is described as a high-end hobbyist drone. The cops aren't looking for marijuana, as it's legal here in Oregon. The drone is interested in girls and women, and leaves when it's discovered. Only to show up a day or week later. If it's some perv cop's drone, I wonder if they would just take the wreckage and "not find" the operator. If it is being used for an official investigation, wonder what kind of trouble the citizens get in for shooting it down? :doom360: |

| Anonymous Coward User ID: 3906334 United States10/18/2019 05:20 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Question: Quoting: Sikhed A coworker of mine has recently had a problem with some sort of voyeurist hovering a drone outside of his windows. He's got a wife and a teenage daughter this 'drone' is interested in. His neighbors too. Happens every weekend for about a month. They think it may be a another student in his daughter's highschool, but are not certain. His neighbors have looked around for the operator but have been unsuccessful. I told him (and he agrees) that the next time this happens, he go outside with his duck gun and shoot it down with a load of turkeyshot, recover the drone, and call the cops. I'm pretty sure this is legal to do: He and his neighbors are outside of city limits. He (or his neighbors) will be shooting it over their private property. What does GLP think? I would shoot it down with a surface to air missile. |

The illegality you should be concerned with is discharging a firearm for a non-defense purpose in the city limits. Considering that, the last thing I would do is tell the cops you shot your shotgun straight up in the air in the city. |

It doesn't matter what we think brosef. Your buddy needs to call the cops and ask them himself, while recording the conversation if they give him a go-ahead.  |

Would the neighbors call the cops is the question Don't really know his neighbors. But I've been to his place, and the homes are about 100 yards apart. Definitely rural; outside of city limits. He occasionally shoots on his property and has shot quail on it too. I think he's mostly worried about being taken to small claims court for destroying some perv's toy. :doom360: |

Same thing happened to a family member. They never did find out who was behind it. After about 2 weeks it stopped. Hovered around 2nd floor glass door, on the beach. |

Quoting: Anonymous Coward 75953087 So sure if you wanna be seen like a lunatic shooting a shotgun in the air at the 'spy drone' You do you buddy. I want to see you admit in court with your video evidence that you are using them for what you are. I will shoot every single one I see down. |
| Anonymous Coward User ID: 77837750 United States10/18/2019 06:20 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | I've shot down two hovering near my windows. The funny thing is, all these drones have cameras, so they know I shot them, yet they didn't dare call the cops. Imagine that. I don't know if it was the same person twice, or two different people. As soon as I came out with the rifle, though, they tried to get height first, then move laterally. Too slow, lol. |

If he does shoot it, then do it when the drone camera is pointed away from him would be my only advice. Last Edited by Slowly awakening on 10/18/2019 06:28 PM Evil controls the ignorant...

Ohh please you believe the story that a drone is peeping though windows at wife and daughter? That is just nonsense in the minds of people with Ego. They think the drone flying nearby is trying to film them. |
