I was going to say
'only in America' but in reality it could have been created anywhere
Would you give points to the constructor for the build effort?
The US Federal Aviation Administration says it is investigating an online video that shows an alleged home-made "drone" firing a handgun in the Connecticut countryside.
The 14-second video called Flying Gun shows a homemade multi-rotor hovering off the ground, buzzing furiously and firing a semiautomatic handgun four times at an unseen target.

Had to happen. Without seeing what it is shooting at, hard to say if it has any sort of aim worth considering. Looks pretty inaccurate though.

I think microdrones delivering lethal injections will be more of a problem in the long run.

Agreed. I too thought inaccurate but someone will add an SMG (small machine gun) or an explosive device soon enough.
Devilish use of the technology
