Any reason they can't simply be shot down?
You will find that in most countries Drones be they fixed wing or Quadcopter styles are 'aircraft' under the local Air Navigation codes. As such Police under the law have limited power to fire on aircraft unless they pose a clear risk to humans and property to a lesser extent. Taking any ballistic approach to a drone in the air is potentially stupid as where does that projectile go when they miss and they will.
Simply trying to dump a multi kg lump of anything from altitude using a random means of jamming has downsides too. Uncontrolled lumps kill too in particular around populated areas or crowds. Consider 4 or 5kg doing 80-100km/hr losing all control and drones get a lot heavier and faster. Protecting a military outpost from a strike is one thing but it is not a solution for all places or circumstances.
Mid air collision as a response by another drone just not going to happen. By the time you get a competent person even in the air whatever was intended has been done and dusted even before the slim chance of getting that collision.
The current 'geo fencing' technologies that a lot of the commercial drones come fitted with (one of mine has it) works really well as government can effectively block those drones being flown in any sensible manner.
I am currently working on a design using off the shelf boards and components where there will be NO geofencing restrictions and the code is open sourced regardless. This is simple cheap and accessible to all.
'But what if we block the GPS' - drones don't have to have GPS to fly. If you want to avoid most of the hitec counter measures and cause harm you don't use a quadcopter for a start you use an aircraft and minimise the metal and heat (easy to do) they fly longer faster and carry bigger payloads. Run redundant receivers and transmitters on very different parts of the spectrum and away you go and you FLY the drone/plane at your target. By the time an airport as in this case figured out you were coming you are already there.
The Idiots of the world can't be stopped and a baseball bat to the head would only increase their IQ's. Those intent on causing harm or disruption will find a way around it as we have seen back into history not just recently. Fear mongering and media hype is not a solution either.
