Nick Scott commented on Chris Anderson's blog post Colorado town considers licensing people to "hunt drones"
"I know your intentions were not that, really the issue is the title of the blog post and the article.  It should say "Mayor of small inconsequential town (in regards to drones) in Colorado has lapse in judgement"

"Again, stop lumping "Colorado" people in the same groups as this guy. He does not represent our population as a whole. Not even close."

"Sorry for the rapid fire comments, I forgot to say that I think we should collaborate on a user submitted guide once we figure it out.  Quite a few people are asking. "

"Sorry to jump in on your wall MegaFlare, but I am having the same problems with jdrones documentation. I tried friending Jani to ask him but he hasn't replied, even though he has been active since I sent it.  Hopefully he answers here for both of…"

"Boy that would be sad if Chris Anderson is taking a swipe at Colorado residents when he says "Not sure if this says more about public perceptions of drones or about Colorado", but it seems very much like he is.
Ignoring that very close minded…"
