Couldn't you just shoot the drone?
Me personally? No.
Sounds like you need to believe in yourself a little more
I'm not at all defending this asinine "solution" to school shootings, however eight minutes could be a significant amount of lives saved.
It's a pepper spray drone, delaying them from killing people is the point in the first place.
