Oh. That makes sense. Like the electified gate to keep moose off the
runway at an AK airport.

Maybe opening up the areas surrounding the airport to hunting could help
here? The surrounding residents would benefit in several ways. First,
the rifle blasts would blend in with the whine of the engines/props, thus
reducing any noise complaints. Second, the presence of armed citizens
roaming around the periphery of the airport would discourage would-be
terrorists, thereby lessening the airport's security funding needs. Of
course NOTAMs would need to be issued by airports proposing peripheral
hunting, and the hunters would need to be instructed to voluntarily aim
low, in the event of poor aim.

Look at the ****ty place you live in. You already know that the general
population is not armed where you live. Around here you have to assume
everybody is armed. They might be, they might not be. Crime is not a
problem
