Activists' Drone Shot Out of the Sky For Fourth Time

Posted by samzenpus on Monday November 19, 2012 @10:20AM from the and-stay-down dept.

garymortimer writes "Photos provided by the animal rights group show the multicopter smoking on the ground, with its lithium polymer battery supply smoldering. Another photo shows the drone's video camera smashed. The drone, dubbed 'Angel,' was a Cinestar 8 octocopter estimated at $4,000. This wasn't the first time SHARK has been shot out of the sky. This is the fourth drone that the group has lost while investigating pigeon shootings. One drone landed on club property, and is the subject of an ongoing lawsuit."

And if you kill animals for no fucking reason, you can bet someone will do more than just try to catch your sorry ass on camera.

Americans and their odd violence fantasies and need to own a gun to over compensate for their inadequacies disgust me as does supposedly intelligent Slashdotters supporting these pathetic redneck bozos.
