    You throw a swarm of drones whizzing into a high pressure scenario

    You might be over estimating the capabilities of drones to navigate interior spaces and closed doors. And don’t forget simple jamming devices should these systems be publicized.

      Jamming, here again, I’d be very surprised if a disgruntled teenager or 20-something going postal is going to put enough plan and prep to purchase jammers in their act. For those that do, drones can be tethered now.

      And yes, drones can bump and do bump into things, but I think you’re underestimating just how sophisticated these the professional versions of drones have become over the last few years. We’re not talking the $100 versions with a cheap camera that you and I have anymore.

        That’s fair enough. For now. (Regarding the jamming) but I’d assume the shape of things will change over time. Just like 3D printed guns.

        And I guess they will just have to change policy to open all doors during an active shooter incident.
