Kentucky Man Fells Neighbor's Drone

Post by dualstow »

I think we're going to see this type of event in increasing frequency.
Two Kentucky neighbors are dueling over who was at fault when one of them blasted the other's drone out of the sky — leading to an arrest and felony charges.

I see from another headline that the shooter's daughter was sunbathing. I'd probably shoot it down too.

I wonder if they will succeed in finding a jury pool in Kentucky who would vote to convict.
Human behavior is economic behavior. The particulars may vary, but competition for limited resources remains a constant.

If the process were fair, no way.  As it is, they filter every jury for people who are willing to convict on that case, and forbid the mentioning of nullification.  I certainly hope they fail to seat a jury!
