Really not cool the way this whole things is directed at the hobbyist.
The best thing to come out of this is local law enforcement learning about our hobby, how we have safety rules and guidelines, how we appreciate aviation. The rest of the world is ignorant to our hobby and our way of safety. Things like this will happen until your local law enforcement knows who you are as an organization.
This is absolutely a wonderful thing. Plus, you get a mini airshow.
