The *people* of a Democratic America can withstand much worse than a
psycho doing damage to an icon, or even 20 psychos doing damage to any number of icons. If they give themselves half a chance. Thank you. I'm doing my best to stay out of the off-topic threads, but your post deserves special recognition for its truthfulness and insight. While his post was, indeed, full of insight and depth, it was also, sadly, woefully disconnected from modern American society. Much as I would like to believe his words, I'm afraid the old saying "It's impossible to be too cynical" applies here. Americans would demand -- and their leaders would provide -- severe restrictions on GA in the event of a successful terrorist attack that utilized GA aircraft. It's really a simple political equation: Ryder rental trucks cannot be removed from the roads without severe consequences -- but our little planes can be swept from the skies with the stroke of a pen, with little or no political fallout. We would be wise to remember that. -- Jay Honeck Iowa City, IA Pathfinder N56993 www.AlexisParkInn.com "Your Aviation Destination" |
