Ted, after the Ukrainian drone attacks on Russian strategic air assets and the Israeli drone attacks from inside Iran, we can be pretty well guaranteed or at least hope that there is a major rewriting of the laws and a major overhaul of defensive policies on US bases. One can imagine the damage some terrorist or Chinese cell or even some misguided kids could do to our bombers here, to the White House, the Capital.
Nobody is going to start shooting down Amazon delivery drones but the bad actor threat is so real and so apparent now that something must be done urgently. I'm not saying issue SxS's to all the border guards at US bases but on second thought it's not a bad idea as a last ditch defense.
