TSA - another indignity for permanent residents

I wonder if it's worth
contacting Larry - the fellow behind Surface Winds - in hopes of an
article
on the matter.

I'm all ears. Who's this Larry?

I am ready to fight this to the very end.

I am eligible to become a citizen within 6 months to a year so this is
almost a non-issue for me. It's a matter of principle though.

They are stiflying GA. They are starting with Permanent Residents but think
about that: who's next? People that have bad driving records? People older
than 60 years of age?

All you need is a couple of "coincidental" accidents involving a particular
group of pilots and they'll impose regulations to stop them.

They are taking aside the "minorities" inside GA, one by one, and eroding us
one at the time .

That's the way I see it.

hm, I would ask the question if I want to be a citizen within such an
environment. Because *then* it is *your* government doing these things.

It is just changing the side of the fence.

aviation content: IMHO these actions all affect the aviation business and
hurts economically. How many FBOs went bankrupt after 9/11? How many will
follow? How much many stays outside of the country because of the bad
climate?
Hm, this is r.a.p: are there any such things in Canada? Maybe I should plan
my next holiday there?

Somehow, some way, the Left trash talks "multi-national corporations" and
"big corporations" as if they were messengers of evil, when, in fact,
corporations represent the ultimate, perfect expression of communal
ownership of capital. (Jay Honeck in r.a.p.)

The editor of "Surface Winds". He's also active in Chapter 73 of the EAA,
but I don't know the details.

Well, we're inconvenient to them. We're outside the system that is their
reason for being. To prove that they are needed, there must be nothing
outside their system.

Then there are bozos like that Weiner fellow from NY that act out of simple
ignorance and a failure to recognize that ignorance and wisdom are not
equal.

The restrictions recently placed on 12500 training is being extended to
all
aircraft. TSA claims that Congress mandated it, and maybe we were all
asleep
when that happened. The rule is already in effect; the documentation and
security training requirements kick in Oct 20.
