I don't want a drone coming outside my window; it's that simple. If you have a drop point for drones to deliver goods and services, fine. If you got a package, leave it in the back. But don't come up to my window knocking and say, "Are you in? Can I come in?" No.

Plus, these are airborne things. There's got to be a limit to how much they can carry. There's physics behind this. All right? If you carry a light box with a thumb drive in it that someone ordered, fine. But suppose I order a weight set? Suppose your drone is not carrying my dumbbells?

Okay, suppose you ordered a 5B bag of sugar. Or if you built the drone strong enough to carry heavy groceries, it will be loud and large. I don't see that happening. If I see a drone outside my window, I'm shooting it. Okay? I'm sorry, and I've never shot a gun in my life.

I'll go buy a gun just to shoot the drone that shows up outside my window. I don't know what kind of camera is on it; I don't know where it's from. I don't know. No, no, do something else with your drones, but don't put them by my window.
