Trump signs registration law

What happened to reducing regulations? I sure hope two other federal licensing requirements were repealed in order to pass this.

The arguments in favor of this are too close to those for gun registration, IMO.

Bah.  Freaking stupid law.  It is a waste of time and effort.

I predict drone users will comply with registration laws in roughly the same percentages as CB Radio users obtained FCC licenses several decades ago.

This is probably accurate.  I doubt all those folks buying drones at Brookstone are submitting paperwork.

Not to defend Trump, but I doubt the President even knew that language was added to the bill.

I suspect he got a rundown of what was in the bill but there wasn't anything big enough to justify going to the mat about getting removed. I doubt I'd have held up that bill over drone registration either.

Will probably be about as effective as the requirement for getting a license to use GRMS Radio frequencies.
