Please keep your politics out of this newsgroup - this is
rec.aviation.piloting, not alt.bash.hillary.

"Clinton's amendment, also sponsored by Sens. Richard Durbin
(D-Ill.), Frank Lautenberg (D-N.J.), Jon Corzine (D-N.J.), Charles
Schumer (D-N.Y.) and Joe Lieberman (D-Conn.), requires the government
to undertake as assessment of the dangers posed to high-risk, large
populations and critical infrastructure areas should GA aircraft be
stolen and used as a weapon."

In theory, this doesn't sound all bad. We've been saying all along
that GA is a small risk and that the FRZ is unwarranted. If they
actually study it, they might find that out.

PILOTING!!!

How would this,

"A Senate amendment that called for severe fines, loss of license and
aircraft confiscation for violating the flight restricted zone (FRZ) in the
Washington air defense identification zone was stripped from the Department
of Homeland Security appropriations bill last month."

....be off topic?

not alt.bash.hillary.


Truth hurts, huh?

Let's have a show of hands of all those that believe that the conclusions of
such a study will be scientifically sound, logical, and not politically
motivated...

It sounds like they've already drawn their conclusion and are looking for
ways to force-fit supporting data.

Lautenberg and Schumer have taken every opportunity for decades to shut down GA
and GA airports. Any study that those two have a hand in is poisoned from the start.

This has nothing to do with D's and R's.
Hillary is the primary sponsor and introduced it so it gets her name.
You introduced the political aspect, so we know where you stand on the
issue!

You are a fool if you believe the study would be objective. The way these
work is the conclusion is made then the study is conducted to support the
conclusion. With all the Ds sponsoring the bill it is guaranteed GA would
come out looking like the worst terrorism organization in the world.
