I don't think anyone is proposing banning them. Among other things, many people are skeptical that they should be allowed to fly willy-nilly over everyone's private property. Which seems a reasonable question. After all, you can't typically drive and often even walk on someone else's property.
I do think there are special circumstances where drone delivery of medicine and other urgently needed items may very well make sense. One hour Amazon delivery of a USB cable and a Red Bull? Probably not.
Ok, so you own a drone and live in an apartment. You now can't fly it anywhere. That's in effect the same as a ban. There is literally 1 RC airfield within an hour drive of San Jose last time I looked into it. Most drone owners would likely not buy them if there was an actually-enforced law like that.
