Tired of the unmanned devices flying into the airspace of craft trying to fight wildfires, two California politicians -- Assemblyman Mike Gatto (D-Glendale) and state Sen. Ted Gaines (R-El Dorado) -- on Monday introduced legislation that would give firefighters and other first responders immunity for damaging any drone intruding into such areas during a fire or other emergency.

Doesn't go nearly far enough. There ought to be a $1000 fine for any drone that does not have valid contact information about the operator permanently attached to it, and a legal assumption of full liability for damage caused by the drone directly, or through its interference with fire and police operations.

While I have no issue holding people responsible we all know most can't remotely afford to pay for the damages caused. And nobody can undo a death. The easiest solution is to provide police and fire with a way to immediately destroy the drones. Time wasted waiting for them to leave on their own is too precious. Give the authorities the ability to destroy them on the spot. Problem solved.

"That's the same article I posted. Aside from the title, it really doesn't address the ability to intentionally take them down."
My bad, not paying attention...
