My point is that drone owners are subject to more criminal acts than the drone hating public. I'm sick of this bad publicity we get.
Well, if you commit a criminal act with a UAS then you are subject to penalty. Bad publicity comes with bad piloting. If we make good piloting choices, then there wouldn't be bad publicity. Makes total sense. I've never seen a story with the headline "Drone pilot flys legally and safe in open space taking beautiful pictures". I'm sure this type of flying happens all the time. In case you haven't noticed, our news outlets rarely put out a story that is positive and uplifting. It's all fear based reporting. Not just for drones.
