do you? Know the purpose of the DC ADIZ

My guess at the ostensible purpose of the DC ADIZ would be, to provide
uncluttered buffer space from the ground based missile batteries
(located at its center within the FRZ) in which to determine if the
aircraft in violation of the ADIZ regulations is friend or foe before
needlessly shooting down innocent citizens.

Anyone who knows anything about security, knows that only completely
locked (and thus unusable) systems are even remotely invulnerable.
While possibly attempted with the best of intentions, the security
measures implemented since September 11, 2001 only serve to confound
those with no criminal intent, and bear piteous testament to the
impossibility of securing a free populace.
