Wrong pilot detained for TFR violation

Actually, some people who have been detained and accused of belonging to
al
Qaeda, plotting various terrorist acts and even fighting on behalf of al
Qaeda and the Taliban are American citizens. This has raised enormous
legal
issues and you would have to be living in a cave somewhere not to know
about
it.

Very true, and a point worthy of consideration, but...seriously...they are
quite literally chasing the wrong people, as in this case. Here in
Portland, when The Hunted was being filmed, they actually scrambled a flight
of armed F-15s that screamed over downtown looking to intercept an
ultralight that flew out of Scappoose something like four hours
previous--over an hour beyond that particular aircraft's fuel endurance.

The day Al Queda has to resort to flying ultralights into things, we can
lower the alert level to Green 'cause they're clearly out of better ideas.
