"Set up"??? For what? Please explain.

"Set up" as in someone with an axe to grind or some political hay to make hiring
or otherwise organizing people to steal aircraft in order to advance a policy of
restrictions against other people. Such as airplane owners.

There's a very old saying that you should never attribute to malice what can be
attrributed to stupidity. Following that, the first theft (that of a kid
stealing a Cessna) should be considered to be a simple case of stupidity. And
when some drunk goes joyriding into Hilary Clinton's back yard, a reasonable man
still thinks this is just a remarkable display of lack of intelligence. At some
point, however, a reasonable man begins to feel that there may be more going on
than just the acts of stupid people.

Whether we've reached that point or not is debatable, but something is beginning
to smell fishy.

Drink is the curse of the land. It makes you quarrel with your neighbor.
It makes you shoot at your landlord. And it makes you miss him.
