No matter how many regulations are put in place, drones are cheap enough now that frequent misuse is becoming the norm. There's no good way of dealing with a dangerous drone: you can jam its radios to force it to autoland, or maybe try using an even bigger drone to capture it inside a giant net. In either of these cases, however, you run the risk of having the drone go completely out of control, which is even more dangerous.
Or, you can be like the Dutch National Police, and train eagles to take down drones for you.

They are talking about the band “Eagles” - “ The Drones “ is a Scottish folk Group with bagpipes.
Whatever it takes to drown them out is good.
War Eagle!? a.k.a. Oorlogsarend

Unfair to Drones United;
Concealed Carry for Drones;

Look it up, as I'm not sure how much info is in the public domain.
So the Dutch as clever enough to train an Eagle to take a drone down, but not smart enough to keep rapefugees from overrunning their lands.
Good Birdie!
Still not as cool as Mongolians using golden eagles to hunt and kill wolves.
Freegards
“South Park” did an epi on drones.
With the capability of drones for acrobatics, unless ‘blind-sided, I don’t see your typical ‘droner’ just sitting there waiting for the strike.
It's the new PC name of the Washington Redskins...The DC Drones.
It also works for politicians.
——The DC Drones-—
Drones have only one purpose and that is to screw the Queen. The run of the mil workers tolerate them until after the new queen leaves the hive and then they no longer get the good treatment.
Pound sand, ya stinkin' control-freak leftist!
