I like your idea. If there were no penalties for using drugs then there would be no reason for drug users to hide the fact that they use drugs. By their use being illegal, the whole dataset that could provide important information as to both the positive and detrimental effects of drug use is totally skewed. The way it is now, only those stupid enough to be caught using drugs contribute to the data which causes the results to suggest that using drugs makes you stupid. The only way to ensure there is no bias in drug studies is to not have penalties for drug use.
...who post negative comments about preserving private property rights. It's as if you want to give the government the power take from the individual to benefit the majority. Why aren't you all up in arms against this obvious usurpation of private property rights. Certainly few believe in taking from those who have and giving to those who need.
No, +1 for property rights. Something for which drone operators have no respect. This isn't hard, fly where you are allowed, don't fly where you aren't.
Yes, I know there are many here who want to diminish the definition of just what is our property whether it be 1ft or 500 ft, but whatever that definition ends up being it cannot be denied that we have a right to defend it. There exists regulated and controlled lanes for free transport and there exist no reason to allow drones to violate them.
Never say never. Again thankfully, both criminal and civil penalties apply when they do stray. Additionally, few if any ground delivery vehicle owners argue for the right to violate others privacy and space. Drone proponents could learn a lesson from them.
This is nothing more than a disconnect between real science and the masses. much the same as the disconnect between the 1% and the 99%. Education is the key here.
The reason Europeans were so susceptible to the plague is that they were Europeans, just as the reason Native Americans were so susceptible to small pox was that they were Native Americans. Inbreeding leads to weakness, crossbreeding leads to strength.
It's not the photos I'm concerned about and there are already plenty of planes that fly a few thousand feet over my house. The government has already usurped that space from property owners. What I don't want is to have it take any more than it already has.
Not any of it? I wasn't aware we lived in a two dimensional universe. Certainly I have a right to to an inch above the ground, no? Or a foot? Or 10 feet? Or 100 feet?
Life imprisonment for killing another person, fines for destroying public right a ways, hell there are even laws against trespassing on anothers property. Yeah, government really sucks.
....both solely exist to allow the 1% to siphon the wealth of this nation from the rest of us while their media minions keep us fighting over such inconsequential things such as homosexuals marrying each other. I mean seriously, who in their right mind really thinks it is good idea to force men who want to have sex with men to marry women, or women who want to have sex with women to marry men? Talk about crazy!!
The disparity in our opinions are likely lead to stupid laws like having to have a flagman 50 feet in front of a horseless carriage. In the end we ended up with clearly marked routes of right of way. I'm certain there can be compromise, but it is doubtful if you continue to insist you have a right to invade my space.
Neither, I am already in the flight path of the local airport so have to put up with jets shaking the very foundation of my home constantly during holiday season. I don't won't the additional headache of having drones buzzing over my head constantly just to deliver someone too lazy to cook a pizza.
I think the big disconnect here is between those of us who believe we are entitled to the peaceful enjoyment of our property and those who feel they are entitled to fly there drones wherever and whenever they choose. Both believe that any intervention will be an encroachment on their rights. As much as hate government regulation, this is one of those cases where it is necessary.

Actually hipsters in the big city value their privacy more since it threatened much more often.
Not much surprised here.h

Thankfully, delivery trucks have well defined regulated lanes of travel to keep them off private property.
Physicians may dictate the parameters and protocols, but it is nurses who care for you minute by minute.
Hello Slashdot, I'll be here for another 15 years...

...in taxes received the biggest bonuses. Fair is fair, after all.
Just like 4G isn't 4G and 3G isn't 3G. Other than corporations continuing to rip people off here, what is new?

Clear policies need to be established, particularly for those who think they can fly their drones over private property at their whim.

So you are the type is believes it is corporations who should dictate policies then and fuck everyone else affected by them?

You are forgetting that their many, many of us out there who do not want drones flying over a property.
