Would you use a Drone to overfly and scan dealer trays at a coin show?

Did you really think the OP was being serious? It's called humor.

Believe me there are some yahoos out there who would take that suggestion seriously. Just look at the jack asses who were flying drones to get pictures of that wild fire that crossed an interstate highway in California a couple of weeks ago. The state could not get the emergency planes into the area because of the drones therefore placing lives and property at risk. I'd be all for shooting the drones down if it were safe, and sending their owners to prisons with some sledge hammers so they could use them to make big rocks into small rocks for a considerable time to come.
I would love to be able to do this...the idea of slogging up and down aisle after aisle, seeing the same dreary stacks of
carp over and over and over again...I just can't do it anymore
Could check out any coin show, anywhere while sitting on the beach !

Saw a story in the news yesterday about some guy (I think in Kentucky) whose teenage daughters were sunbathing in their fenced back yard when a drone came by, hovered over the yard next door, and then came over his back yard. He took it down with a shotgun. He was arrested for unlawful discharge of a firearm within city limits, and the owner of the drone (who claimed that he was merely checking on the property next door) wants his drone paid for.
Assuming one criminal trial and one civil lawsuit, I am not sure how I would vote on either jury.
guy who shot down the Drone hovering over
his backyard with his daughters sunning.
The reporter asked him "How Long was the
Drone over your backyard??"
His answer?
"Long enough for me to take three shots at it!"
Loved that response.

Good one!
Drones are divisive.
If you don't have one they are annoying and intrusive.
If you do have one it's the coolest thing ever.
Like anything else, the few irresponsible idiots ruin it for the majority of responsible users.

He used a shotgun. Easy acquittal vote for me. The drone owner, however, would do 60 days in the county GP, and finish up with another 200 hours of community service (Saturday roadsides, and any day the temp is over 95)

You mean like this kid?
This kid loves being on the local news around here. He was beat up by a cute girl last year after she found him trying to get nude pics of her sun bathing on the beach. Halarity Ensued...

Had both the camera and the 8mm movie noses for my rockets when I was a kid. They actually worked amazingly well. Not really a drone, but cool tech for the 70's.
I really wish I knew where the film and negatives are. I'd get 'em digitized...

Idiots!!!

We did some wild stuff with model rockets in our young adult years, extremely fun stuff

Had a guy in the ER awhile ago that was out having a good time with his kids in a park when out of the blue, a drone droped onto him- injuring his foot. He was MAD as hell and said the spinning props almost hit his kids face on the way down.
Found a $1300 drone on the lake bottom in an area I frequently open water swim just a couple of weeks ago. It was about 20 ft down and about 100 yards from shore.
I ran an ad looking for the owner and asked for someone to give me the model and location where I found it and it's theirs!
Got three or four rsponses from folks that had lost their drones in that very lake- but not the one I found.
So, these suckers DO go down-a fairly common occurance it seems!
Thank goodness Amazon has not been given the green light for their use in delivery!
For coin shows? Sure... Why not? Maybe the video capture will record some of the crooks!
