  1. I agree, the big difference is, if you are a suspected drug dealer you have a chance to defend yourself. Innocent until proven guilty. In this case it is suspicious, so we kill you. All this is based on what the papers are reporting and what the CIA has released. I think we can all agree that we are usually not happy on the track record of the media and the CIA when it comes to honesty. SO why is it that most of you blindly swallow what is put in front of you when it comes to what is reported about al-qaida and the taliban? That is what scares me most, where does that end? For those of you who claim collateral damage, please understand that that is exactly what al qaida could say about the thousands of people dead in their attacks. Collateral damage to the message they are trying to get accross.......
  2. Great, well I guess the police departments around the US can start shooting any drug dealer. Speaking of that, I think we can agree that most drug dealers are responsible for quite a few deaths amongst their customers. So, since their customers are aiding a known member of a group responsible for killing thousands, we should really just shoot everybody who we even suspect of using drugs of any kind. So, everybody, think of all those people who use drugs, even those you only suspect of doing drugs and kill them. Sounds pretty insane to me, but really is in the same light, just closer to home. Once again, to me it is really dangerous if we allow the CIA or any government branch to just start killing on suspicion. But I have this feeling that most of you don't care until they start killing americans on american soil because there is a suspicion. Some dqays I am happy I live in Canada, even if we only get to skydive a couple of months out of teh year....
  3. I couldn't agree with you more......
  4. I couldn't agree with you more, so I think next time they bust a drug dealer, they should just shoot him on the spot, including whomever may be with him/her. It amazes me how many of you just do not care. If a newspaper even remotely reports anything wrong about a skydiving incident you are all over the journalist. But when they report it has possibily something to do with Al Qaida, then you guys have no problem believing any of it........ We are now at a stage were it seemingly is ok to kill people on a suspicion....to me that is very dangerous.
  5. I agree completely. I have always wondered about that. The comment about s-turns is always made, but them most busy DZs frown upon it happening. I also have a question about lading in breaks. Often I have heard or read the remark: "sinking into someone's backyard in deep brakes". But then I read the reamrks that in no to low wind days flying your approach in deep brakes would actually lengthen your glide.... Hopefully some of the more experienced canopy pilots can explain.
