Welcome to the 21st century! Robert Heinline predicted this and much
more in the settings of his novels.

If this is what we have to look forward to under a
Kerry/Edwards presidency, I fear the worst is yet to come.


I believe it is what occurred during Dubuah's reign.

But I share your confidence that the Kerry presidency is assured.

I sincerely hope not. They should have shot the lying, treasonous war
criminal a long time ago. He betrayed his country, he betrayed everyone who
served in Vietnam, he met with enemy leaders, he deliberately killed babies
and then justified by claiming in Congressional testimony that everyone else
was doing it, he left his one of his own men for dead while fleeing from an
imaginary attack and only turned around when shamed into it, two of his
Purple Hearts are for self inflicted wounds, he disgraced the medals that he
is now so proud of, and he plotted to kill United States senators. He does
not deny any of this; instead he resorts to personal attacks against those
who are exposing the truth about him. If personal attacks do not silence his
enemies, he resorts to threats of violence and lawsuits, which shows what he
thinks of freedom of speech.

It speaks volumes about the Democrats that they have sunk so low as to put
such a slimeball up for the Presidency. The Democratic Party no longer
respects America or Americans, but is solely focused on using fraud and
deceit to achieve power in any way that it can. If this behavior continues
the only outcome can be civil war.

You're out of your mind, Campbell.

Whoa, CJ, don't hold back. Tell us what you really think...

While I share some of your distaste for Mr. Kerry, CJ, I think you've taken
your point "a bit" too far. Kerry is (or, at least, was) an honorable man,
and I wish him the best in the upcoming election.

I don't want this to become a "bash Kerry" or "trash Bush" thread. What we,
as pilots, need, is to discuss intelligent, constructive ways to influence
our government officials so that ridiculous crap like this doesn't happen to
more and more pilots.

I'm all for logical, sensible security strategies for our presidential
candidates, but what they did to my family was just stupid. We weren't a
threat, and we couldn't have become a threat. If they THOUGHT we were
potential threats, they could have escorted us to our plane, and searched
it. They could have had the FBO guys tow my plane to the OTHER FBO on the
OTHER side of the field, and we could have departed from there. (Those
planes were coming and going freely throughout this episode.)

They had a myriad of options, all of which they chose to ignore. The only
thing that satisfied them was my complete immobility, which is no different
than treating me like a suspected criminal.

And I resent it.

He "was", until the tragic inconvenience of you having to sit in an FBO for
an hour? What narcisistic bull****.

No, Kerry was honorable until he went on TV blasting the behavior of his
country and his fellow soldiers, while the Viet Nam war was in progress and
his comrades were still being held prisoner.

Jay,

Next time show up dressed like a middle east citizen. They would
probably leave you alone... because we all know it's not NICE or PROPER
to profile....

Sharing your disgust,

BJ

Just be glad you don't live in an area subject to repeated TFRs and other
restrictions. Those of us in such areas have been raising the alarm for
quite some time but until you get a small taste of what it is like you
really can't understand the feeling.
