MAJOR UPDATE: Community notes say this is a fake video. Here’s the original video apparently:

Welp.

A video has emerged on X of someone trying to shoot one of these mystery drones out of the sky from New Jersey tonight, firing at my count over 30 rounds at the drone.

He appeared ultimately unsuccessful at bringing down the drone:

Let me first say DO NOT DO THIS BECAUSE IT IS VERY DANGEROUS! Those bullets have to go somewhere as they come down and it could easily be in someone’s home or business, potentially killing them.

This was incredibly dumb and if authorities figure out who fired these shots, I guarantee you they will be in prison for putting people’s lives in danger.

You can also bet good money that the media will blame President-elect Trump for this because he said ‘shoot them down’. But Trump was referring to the government, not some redneck gun owner who doesn’t have a penny’s worth of common sense.
