Amazon says it's drones will be as common as seeing a mail truck

I like this one

That looks cool.

Fancy toys. Little payload capacity and very short battery life. Fun to play around with but impractical for commercial purposes.

This is where it's at

Mail trucks are being eliminated?

Drones should be able to bring you your pills.

I elected for pickup at the local CVS but OTC ... for sure.

Ordered myself one of these:

As president of the HOA, are you going to hunt for violations?

If the girl was underage I hope the person flying the drone gets charged as a sex offender. I might be in jail for murder if I caught a guy doing that to my 2 little girls.

Underage doesn't necessarily mean "little girls".

Peeping Toms are crappy anyways, but nowadays the way some teen girls dress and act, you'd never know how old they are if you don't ask.

I would treat that as another peeping tom if it was my daughter. What is the difference from a pervert peeking through a crack in the fence. If that guy wanted to hover over my house I might do a little skeet shooting practice.

No, I agree, but when he said "little girls" it makes me think of maybe a 7 year old.

As the father of a young daughter, this is my fear for when she grows up. I'd have no problem busting a cap in someones ass if they were peeping on my baby girl. Too many sick bastards in this world

Don't go there.

One of these days, a drone is going to crash and either kill or hurt someone. That will be the end of the Amazon drone discussion.

Too big of an industry, they'll blame it on operator error.

 

[UpstateNYUPSer(Ret)]

Why. How much did it cost??

$36.

I like drones.

I think the bigger worry is not them crashing and hitting a person. The bigger concern is some idiot flying them around JFK or LAX and a passenger jet with 400 people and 40,000 gallons of jet fuel ingesting one in the engine causing a catastrophic failure.

 

[DOK]

Saw on the news the other day someone was arrested for doing just that. A drone was hovering over his fenced in backyard where his children played so he got his shotgun and shot it down. He is in jail.......

Yeah, it's legal to shoot them down.

Jeff Bezos: Amazon drones will be 'as common as seeing a mail truck' http://cnnmon.ie/1Pgc5Jb via @http://youtu.be/ITSuHGUTgXU

This is a marketing ploy to keep amazon in the headlines.

Don't go there.

Don't go where, billy?

An underage girl could be 2 days under 18. It's a lot different from some pervert who looks at young children in a sexual way.
