Should Drones Be Regulated?

Do you want drones spying on you or getting stuck in the tree in your backyard? According to the article, “Invasion of the Drones” (source 1), a drone is an remote controlled vehicle without passengers, or an unmanned aerial vehicle or UAV.

This could have an impact on national security.” Drones are much smaller than planes or other flying vehicles, they could fly in places where the others couldn’t which would be very convenient to terrorists or people who would like to pose a threat to the national security.

In the article, “For farmers, small drones could help generate bigger profits” (source 2), it states, “‘We can’t see them,’ says Andrew Moore of the Nation Agricultural Aviation Association. Moore’s group wants the FAA to require drones to have lights that would help airplanes figure out where they are.

The plane would probably crash injuring the crops, and even the pilot, all because of a drone. If drones are a risk to national security and can be dangerous shouldn't they be regulated?
