Cool...

This one goes out to all the small government, privacy loving, Republicans out there, supposedly hating invasive big brother tactics and representing the values of the American heartland.

Would be much appreciated if you could have a word with your people about this.

Is it plausible this might cause the helicopter to crash somehow? I wouldn't want to risk that.

Edit: can't believe people be downvoting this. Y'all have no idea how catastrophic a helicopter crash could be. But if you're downvoting because you think the answer is obvious and I'm stupid, I respect that.

No no, couldn't have that, would be a shame

a helicopter crash in a populated area has a high likelihood of collateral damage

They'd come kill you for that.
