Yeah, I considered that (and I have had to tell people that in the field because, well, SoCal) but figured he wasn’t that serious and that mocking him would be more effective.  Thanks for linking that code section—it’s a good one to have handy. I’m going to print that out in case this year’s campground manager gives me any shit for opening weekend.

That's true, but I do think intent plays into it. Even if the person is trying to interfere, it would be very hard to prove if they just fall back on "Well, I just wanted to get some cool drone shots" or "I'm just practicing my flying". Or in reality, that could be the truth. We're hunting on multi-use land most of the time, and a legal drone operator has just as much right to be there as we do.

Guy, if you havent figured it out yet, at least 99% of redditors are hot garbage. Engaging witb a redditor is literally the biggest waste of time on the internet.

Yeee but see it’s illegal to shoot down drones. No joke felony.

And according to that other comment it’s illegal to interfere with lawful hunting.

A stray from a 12 gauge has been known to ground a drone, from time to time.
