He got close with that stick. Not close enough, though. Do you think he was issued that stick, or he brought it from home himself?

Sorry, Comrade. Stick fund has been appropriated for Putin Side Bitch Boob Job. Find own stick.

He should have used a 2000 y.o. equipment. Romans knew how to defeat drones: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Retiarius

Anyone else impressed by the weird simplicity of that simple coat-hanger reticule on the drone?

I was thinking that was the trigger mechanism. When the two metal contacts hit each other, it detonates. So flying directly into something would trigger it, as well as throwing a stick at it
