F-15's help break up a riot..

Man, this is GREAT!

LOL!  I can just imagine it..everyone pauses and looks up at first F15 fly past...then the 2nd, and everyone gets the "oh toejam, we're about to be worked by the USAF" look on their faces, and runs.


Only in California :p.

If they don't disperse, have the f15's go transonic.

Was lucky in that I had a chance to see both the F-15 and F-16 while they were in the testing phase. The F-15 in '74 in Panama and F-16 at Carswell AFB in '76. Like a kid I was in awe of their power and maneuverability. I’ve been to many Airshows since but I’ve never seen the Thunderbirds or the Blue Angels perform maneuvers like the test pilots of the F-16 at Carswell.

As a matter of fact:

Local police use this as a fund raiser. "When Pigs Fly" patches and fly alongs can be had for donations to a worthy cause. My old boss did a 30 minute flight with the Ontario, CA Police one night in the "Night Sun" chopper.

I will always advocate use of airpower at riots and protests.  Imagine if we could have CBUd the barbarian invasion of Seattle a few years ago.  Thousands of the degenarates could have been killed, thousands!!!! :)

Someday......

Weazel equates ecoterrorists and Republicans.  You have become MG, dude.

It was sarcasm directed at groinhurtz.

Even though repub-thugs are a bigger threat to America than eco-terrorists that wasn't the point of the response.

BTW, thnx for the compliment, I don't agree with everything MG says, but at least he gives a toejam about this country...thats more than can be said about the average republican these days.... I'm glad you include me in his category.

Why isnt Napalm used anymore?  Was it due to humanatarian issues (I sure hope not)?
