    I'm hoping Part 2 of this isn't about how we need to augment our building codes to account for drones that might hit our houses.

I'd wager part 2 is "we need to license anything over 10 lbs and limit larger UAVs to law enforcement and life safety." 'member how in the '70s, the future was gonna be helicopters everywhere? And then one went down in Manhattan and all of a sudden there were a lot of empty helipads on skyscrapers? Licensed UAVs with hefty indemnity are no problem at all. 200 paparazzi sporting HD FPV around the Oscars? Death on a stick.
