What a silly, ignorant statement.
General Aviation aircraft are maintaned to very high satefty standards, and furthermore are piloted by people with a strong personal vested interest in *not* crashing into things.
Many non-airline pilots, both GA and military, have died while making sure their aircraft did not hurt people on the ground.
Show me a UAV that can do that.
