In case the NRA is running out of things to ask for, here’s a new doctrine: Bear Arms Against Drones. The doctrine is simple. It would enshrine in law the right of people whose property or personal space is invaded by drones to shoot the things down. Here’s the argument for it:
We’re in the midst of a drone invasion. Some of the snooping, dangerous craft will be operated by individuals and businesses. Some will be operated by crooks. Some will be operated by terrorists. In all cases, individuals should have the right to protect themselves

Amazing how LibProgs find a new respect for guns only when their own interests are being directly affected. We still do not get respect, but we appear to be necessary. I swear these people would love to live in India under their Caste Social System.
Hmmm… No mention of the drones used by the government. Guess the 4th Amendment doesn’t apply, and the Progs are just peachy-keen with that.
They’d love India’s Caste system only as long as they are in the upper tiers, and we’re in the lowest.
Flip-flop the relative social positions (tell me again, who has the guns, and who are the “pacifists”?), and suddenly they don’t like it so much. Even if we take the moral high ground and defend the “lower” caste’s rights every bit as fervently as we do our own, if they don’t get to be in charge, they wouldn’t like it.
