    I’m honestly surprised we haven’t seen an assassination by drone from a nonstate actor yet. It’s cheap, would subvert many of the protections aimed at stopping shooters, and security likely wouldn’t react in time or have the equipment to effectively stop it.

      There was the 2018 Caracas drone attack. Though that one is somewhat muddy in whether it actually was an assassination attempt or a false-flag attack done by the government itself.
