From the report, the public wasn’t notified. I’m surprised the “firing” helicopters didn’t take a couple of live rounds from a concerned public. People should be outraged at this ... But alas, just curious. That no one is LOUDLY questioning this or running to the streets to protest is even more frightening...is the whole country asleep or just busy watching the Pro Bowl and American Idol?
And what’s to stop somebody (or a lot of somebodys) in those skyscrapers from blasting those helicopters out of the sky? You can make a rocket launcher out of a PVC pipe. The insurgents in the Middle East do it all the time.
Naw, it wasn’t American Idle, it was some pat-me-on-the-back music award show.
