    The recent actions of David Boggs filing a federal complaint of his drone being shot down by his neighbor Mr. Merideth is starting an intriguing process of determining legal code in the United States. The main question, what should the relationship be between drones and private property? Whatever the district court’s decision is, the case will undoubtingly become a precedent for future cases revolving around unmanned vehicles and private property. It will be interesting to see how exactly this case is to be conducted. Since a crucial part of the argument rests in how far the drone was above Mr. Merideth’s property, it seems that creating a set range of how far a drone could operate from an individual’s property would raise a whole hoax of questions.…

    The most frequently discussed concern, as Villasenor states, is privacy (Villasenor, 2014). In regards to debate over whether new laws specific to unmanned aviation are required, Villasenor posits that laws currently in effect may provide a greater deal of protection than many believe they do. Citing Kyllo v. United States, Villasenor states that frequent interpretations of the Court’s decision are too pessimistic, and that the decision is not as harmful as some may believe (Villasenor, 2014). He feels that new legislation may be unnecessary, and has the potential to restrict the good drones can do. However, he also acknowledges that some new laws may be beneficial, such as updating stalking laws to include UAS (Villasenor, 2014).…
