In complete seriousness, do you think the community/govt/news media/public oppinion will be changed by simply attending a council meeting?Attend as many meetings as possible, if nothing else than to keep reminding the policy makers to keep “looking for the facts” rather than succumbing to unsubstantiated media sensationalism.
Do our elected and appointed officials really want to their legacy to be attached to legislation like the following:
“...in response to issues unrelated to drone activity at [insert location/facility] we are restricting the use of drones in our community.”
I've seen so many people going to these council meetings and getting timed with council members that have the IQ of a (insert moronic platitude). We no longer are "the people, of the people for the people".
How many of us would change the way we fly on this forum if there was no gov't agency collecting fees and coming up with regs that attempt to define common sense?
The gov't's job is to police and protect. They now define how to raise our kids in school. If I'm dumb enough (and I am) to not want to wear a seatbelt in my vehicle that should be my choice as an adult. In New Jersey they have signs in the water that you could drown if you swim in water. This is our present day gov't.
Bust the morons and leave the rest of us alone. What's going to happen is that we'll be flying in our back yards up to 20 feet. There's always going to be accidents and dumb people. The only way to stop accidents on the roads is to set the speed limit to 0 and the gov't is getting that absurd. It's always $ and control by the elites.
The writing is on the wall for us fliers. We either take back control of the gov't or let the sheep support those in control of us while we pay to support them!
