Typical. First off the Canadians that posted in here can go back to Canada with the dribble about what the military can do and can't do. Second it is Americans like you broke_n_bummin that are going to complain about two military pilots that are flying in the US airspace practicing for actual confrontations. These guys are out there putting their lives on the line everyday defending the very freedom that you enjoy. It galls me to no end when someone complains about the military inconveniencing our daily lives. How about going overseas where people don't enjoy these freedoms and suicide bombers wonder the street looking for a crowded coffee shop or such to take out as many people as possible. Only in America do you have the freedom to even make the comments you made, for if you somewhere else you may already have been placed in jail, flogged or perhaps executed for stating what you did. Shameful that you criticize the military like that because you feel you should have excusive rights to the air above your property.

I leave you with this quote from a Few Good Men...
Col. Jessep:
Son, we live in a world that has walls, and those walls have to be guarded by men with guns. Whose gonna do it? You? You, Lt. Weinburg? I have a greater responsibility than you could possibly fathom. You weep for Santiago, and you curse the marines. You have that luxury. You have the luxury of not knowing what I know. That Santiago's death, while tragic, probably saved lives. And my existence, while grotesque and incomprehensible to you, saves lives. You don't want the truth because deep down in places you don't talk about at parties, you want me on that wall, you need me on that wall. We use words like honor, code, loyalty. We use these words as the backbone of a life spent defending something. You use them as a punchline. I have neither the time nor the inclination to explain myself to a man who rises and sleeps under the blanket of the very freedom that I provide, and then questions the manner in which I provide it. I would rather you just said thank you, and went on your way, Otherwise, I suggest you pick up a weapon, and stand a post. Either way, I don't give a damn what you think you are entitled to.
