The FBI is offering a ten-grand reward for information about people who shine lasers at aircraft.
The penalty for illuminating an aircraft with a laser is up to five years in prison. If the laser interferes with the operation of the targeted aircraft, that's up to twenty years in prison.
Which, to my way of thinking, are both light sentences. I'd want to see them be forced to kneel on the ramp of the nearest airport and then shot.

What's the position in the USA on shooting down drones?
And on cyber-napping them?
Don't know. If the Feds define a drone as an "aircraft", then the same laws would apply.
