Paul, Walberg Introduce the FAIR Act - Video
Bill Clark/CQ Roll Call Sen. Rand Paul, R-Ky., speaks during the news conference to unveil the Fifth Amendment Integrity Restoration Act (FAIR Act), legislation to 'protect the rights of property owners and restore the Fifth Amendment's role in civil forfeiture proceedings' on Tuesday, Jan. 27, 2015.
Sen. Rand Paul has a low tolerance for low-flying objects.
Reacting Wednesday to the recent security scare at the White House where a quad-copter drone crashed on the South Lawn earlier this week the Kentucky Republican said he would have never put up with such a situation.
"If they fly over my house," Paul told CNN, referring to drones and drone operators, "they better beware because I've got a shotgun."
"Drones should only be used according to the Constitution," he added.
Paul, who many expect will launch a 2016 bid, made the comments in an interview with CNN conducted over Snapchat the first ever such occurrence with a lawmaker on the up-and-coming social media network.
His comments come just days after a two-foot-long helicopter-style drone crash-landed on the White House grounds, prompting a security lockdown of the premises and raising serious questions about presidential security.
A hobbyist later got in touch with authorities to notify them that it was his device and that he had merely been playing with it when it crashed.
The unnamed man, identified as an employee of the National Geospatial-Intelligence Agency by The New York Times, had reportedly been drinking before flying the craft later in the evening.

Disappointed by the failure of last years medical marijuana amendment?
Well, it looks like were getting another and more secure chance, thanks to legislation filed Monday that would legalize medical marijuana for patients with certain conditions.
Last November we saw voters approval of medical marijuana in Florida; 57 percent voted in favor of the amendment. But thanks to another amendment to the state constitution approved in 2006, amendments must garner 60 percent of the vote in order to pass. As would only happen in Florida, that amendment passed with a yes from 57 percent of voters. Ironically, that particular majority rubber stamped an amendment ensuring any subsequent majorities of that size would be invalid.
Which is why, with a clear electoral majority, we are still without medical marijuana in Florida.
While we cant rectify our re-election of a man who was able to slither his way out of the largest fraud settlement in history only by invoking the Fifth Amendment 75 times we may have another shot at legal medical marijuana.
Our great green hope, in this case, comes in the form of St. Petersburg Sen. Jeff Brandes.
Interestingly, Brandes belongs to the Republican Party the party that so enthusiastically venerates Ronald Reagan, whose crusade against weed still earns him the ire of activists and stoners everywhere.
Maybe its because the times are changing; maybe its because of the broad support medical marijuana has in Florida. Maybe people saw the 23 states that allow medical marijuana havent yet descended into hellfire and ruin. Or perhaps it has something to do with cannabis proven ability to help the sick.
In fact, there already is a law on the books in Florida which recognizes this fact. Last year, a specific strain of marijuana, Charlottes Web, was legalized to treat seizures. The strain is famous in medical marijuana circles. Web has a potent amount of CBD, one of the two compounds in marijuana, but lacks THC. CBD produces calming, antipsychotic effects while THC is associated with the high. Charlottes Web actually used to be called Hippies Disappointment, before it was successfully used to treat a severely epileptic girl named Charlotte.
Unfortunately, this law hasnt cut the mustard. Its been so tied down by bureaucracy and challenges that the people who need Charlottes Web still arent able to get it. Brandes bill would cut through the obstacles, and provide marijuana to patients with other diseases.
