Agree, look for quick legislation after the first lawsuit...and it'll probably come this year.

Also look for quick shotgun issues too!

Yep, within 2 years they will be a huge annoyance.

And in 2 years and 1 month, they won't be a novelty anymore and people will get bored and move on to something else more annoying.

As they should.

An old school CB radio with a linear amp should bring one down pretty quick though

I think two went down during the Miami Boat Show Poker Run 2014.
One off a dock on the first day & the second at the raft up party on Saturday.
