Thumbs down should have shot him down

I don't like the way this Turkish guy
flies in from Canada and wasn't shot
down with a cruise missle and vaporized !

he could have been transporting ANYTHING!

especially a bio warfare weapon that could have been
unloaded in flight-> invisible to the human (pilot's) eye.

I believe they knew the aircraft was stolen from a flight school so the chance if it causing much harm were pretty slim, and they did have multiple fighters on the scene to take action if necessary.

Interestingly enough it looks like the guy was depressed and trying to commit suicide!

By flying into a building??
I would have vaporized him, this sending a message that we are not playing around.

Should have shot his a$$ down....period. If he wanted to commit suicide we'd be more than happy to help him

I think we should have called the United Nations and asked their advice. if we shot him down, other nations may not like us and think we are murderous barbarians.

You're right, we should invade Canada.

It is better to be attacked and be a victim - then the world will feel sympathy for you.

If you attack, then they are the victim, and the world will hate you.

I've just summarized the current US national defense strategy in two sentences.

Article 1, Section 9:
No bill of attainder or ex post facto Law shall be passed.

EXCEPT when it's the USA that gets attacked, then it is quoted as "They got what they deserved."

Funny, I don't recall any help being offered after 9/11?
Where were all these other countries when WE were the victims?

I was shocked that they DIDN't blow his sorry a$$ back into the stoneage!

News report said he wanted to be shot down as a way of suicide
Could have just stuck a shot gun in his mouth and not involved anyone and costing us $

You're joking right?

The outpouring of sympathy after 9/11 was incredible.

Even more stunning was the international aid sent after Katrina.

Sorry if I'm the one who did that. The decision would probably come from the President, so I thought it was on topic.

A suicide attempt
death by jet,,,,hmmm- they didn't honor his wish...

...that seems so strange.
