Fair enough. I sometimes get weary of folks immediately assuming the worst about the drone pilot. In the environment described here, I get the impression that the police are pretty much "locked and loaded" and just waiting to jump on someone, although that, too, is just an impression and not necessarily a fact. I just continue to be amazed that the laws and regulations treat my 1.6 lb. little drone like I was flying a 60,000 lb. F18 fully loaded with armament. I confess that I am not a big believer in a rule for every occasion, and that sometimes affects my attitude toward these things.
I never expected all this drama when we bought the little Mavic just to shoot a little video and a few photos.
