Is this the case of radar automatic targeting unable to distinguish between a balloon and a drone. Or was this a border guy manually pulling the trigger with bad eyesight?

It better be the latter because letting an automated system pull the trigger on unknown aircraft in public airspace that is not closed down is horrifying.

That's Russian levels of shooting down innocent planes. Fuck.
