💬 A lot of people say, “If a drone flies over my property, I’m shooting it down.” We hear this all the time—but doing that could land you in serious legal trouble. 🚁❌ Here’s the reality: A drone is legally considered an aircraft. Damaging or shooting one can lead to serious federal charges—just like interfering with a manned aircraft. ✈️ And it’s not just firearms. Using a signal jammer, throwing a net, or even pointing a laser at a drone can also be illegal. Only certain federal agencies have the authority to actively disable drones. 🚫🔫 If a drone is causing a legitimate concern, the right move is to document what happened and report it to your local law enforcement or the FAA—don’t take matters into your own hands. 🙅‍♂️🚨 #dronedoctor #dronesafety #knowthelaw #faa #flyresponsibly
