      a)You don't have a gun
      b)You would struggle to hit it - especially when I see you get your gun and fly away
      c)Firing guns willy-nilly would get you in serious trouble, this isn't America

      The serious point about not flying into other peoples' gardens is of course legit... don't do that.

              1)Something you can fly outside with a nice camera to explore wildlife and so on. Needs a decent range, generally more serious kit.
              2)A toy maybe for indoors or the garden, especially if you can race/fight with a mate. The Parrot one looks fun.

              OK, maybe 3:
              3)As a coder, there must be cool things you can do. Like a follow-drone as mentioned, or other projects I cannot think of... swarming perhaps, make a real version of robot-quidditch, ...
              For me:

              (4) If stuck in a motorway traffic jam that stretches away over hill and dale to beyond the horizon, send a drone ahead to find out what the heck is going on!

                Didn't realise you wanted your brother to be forced to resign.

                I would happily contribute to the crowding funding campaign to take your brother to court.

                  If you were a legit gun-owner you'd know damn well you can't go shooting into the air at other peoples' property.

                  What gun have you got then? What do you use it for?

                  A mate owns a wood and allows hunters to use it in return for a share of the spoils... used to get some guy turn up with a boot-full of dead birds irregularly.

                    Don't try that on the M4 near London, M11 or the M23 either.
