> There needs to be a legal means for property owners to keep drones off their property

I agree. It should be the same one we use for helicopters and airplanes.

It is the same law, https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Federal_Aviation_Regulations

But drones are classified differently and the rules need to be updated and tightened up, particularly drones for commercial purposes.

If they fly low enough that I could hit them with a shotgun, they're on my property. This isn't true of planes and helicopters.

These things aren't planes or helicopters and poised to be much more invasive and annoying, why people act like they are just like a passenger airplanes flying a literal mile overhead is baffling. But to that end if Amazon started making deliveries by landing a fucking helicopter in my yard on the regular I would also want them banned.
