Illinois Law Grounds PETA Drones Meant To Harass Hunters
schwit1 writes "Illinois passed a new state law that set back the efforts of the People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals (PETA), making the use of drones to interfere with hunters and fishermen prohibited. The law was created in response to PETA's plan to employ drones called "air angels" to monitor outdoors enthusiasts engaged in hunting and fishing nationwide."
Do I need a license to go drone hunting? or is it just open season? because that sounds like fun! Also, I believe shooting drones stays well within PETAs goals as I wouldn't be shooting animals :)
They're the next gen of skeets!
Let people hunt members of PETA?
It was so much fun to read about their drones being shot down and PETA's incredulous reactions to it.
When Fascism comes to America, it will call itself Anti-Fascism, and tell you to give up your guns.
Yeah, these off-topic NSA references sure don't get tiring. Keep 'em coming. We all admire your fresh and on-topic humour. I'm sure somewhere around here Fouad is laughing at your cleverness.
You're in favour of "free" speech that nobody listens to, destroying things with guns, and lawsuits.
You, sir, are a Yank.
" protesting how they're killed (decapitation, which is the most humane way to kill them)."
By that, I mean the pythons...
I find them hilarious. One year an activist trespassed on school property wearing a large fish costume and handing out flyers equating fishing to murder. It was a particularly hot day and eventually he succumbed to heat exhaustion and flopped around like a trout before the paramedics arrived. I wish I can find the link to the local news cast.

I wouldn't destroy them... I would just capture them, flash their command set, and sell them on Ebay.
