It is at around 60k feet. That is almost 12 miles high. You aint shooting that down with your AR. For comparison passenger planes typically fly no higher than 35k feet and the biggest thunderstorms top out around 50k feet.
It is about an order of magnitude higher than a bullet will travel. Not going to come close to hitting it with a hand weapon, but you might kill some of your fellow citizens.
I bet an enterprising individual could make their own balloon weapon and take it out, though. People on youtube have made accurate high altitude balloon tests so in theory that’s within the ability of regular people to do. Probably illegal to float weaponry up into the atmosphere, however.

I don't think bullets travel that high. It's not a hot air balloon.

Canada is claiming they shot 120 holes in it but who knows, that could be a lie.
Had to check to see if I was on Patriots.win...
