Isn’t he already receiving the briefings? What would be the consequences if he told us?

Sounds to me like Trump just gave everyone permission to shoot drones down.

Did he not refuse the briefings to prevent the same frickery they pulled in 2016? Legitimate question.
Either way though, they could easily just leave the party about unidentified drones completely out, of they are indeed giving him something.

I was a competitive shooter in my younger days. IPSC, IDPA, 3-gun, a liitle BR here and there. And I have serious doubts that there is a way to down these drones using semi-auto small arms fire.
I mean might one use a Barrett M82A2? How about something in 338 Lapua or 452 Barrett or 6 ARC or etc., etc., etc.? It would be a lucky shot.
10 gauge or 8 gauge 4" magnums with 40" pipes firing teathered 00 buck? I dunno, maybe, if they were close enough.
I still say we're not seeing them down here in the South for just such a reason. Because we'll turn it into a young war if they show up down here. We'll turn it into a chootin' party.

That's not how this works. But, do it.
Let us know what prison is like.

My powpow left me an antique firearm. I always wondered when I would get a chance to use it.

A lot of things have been referred to as Waterfowl Widowmakers over the decades. Having grown up duck hunting Stuttgart and Maddox Bay, Arkansas since the early 60s ... I think I've probably heard them all.
There are hundreds of YouTube videos of people trying to take down even small, inexpensive, unarmored drones, with various gauges and loads, but to no avail.

No.
Hes telling the fricking government if you don't know what they are you (fedgov) should shoot them down.
Hes playing them per usual. He knows that they know what the frick they are.

True. But think of the trajectory in those populated urban areas if you miss…
DJT thinks they know what those things are. He’s stirring the pot.
