Those Hateful Airplanes
San Francisco Chronicle Letters to the Editor ^ | October 12, 2006 | Taranto

Posted on 10/12/2006 4:02:50 PM PDT by pabianice

(San Francisco Chronicle)

Thank you, Fleet Week. My preschool-aged daughter, having heard your airplanes overhead all week, is now completely traumatized and afraid to go outside. She just heard a commercial airliner in the sky and ran inside shrieking, shaking, and trying to close all the windows and doors. We tried to have a fun family weekend enjoying free music in our park, but it was ruined by the thundering sound of those hateful airplanes overhead, forcing her (and most of the other children I saw) to throw her hands over her face and cower.

If there is ever an opportunity for me to vote on any proposition keeping this ridiculous event and huge waste of resources from marring the skies of my city again, you can bet I'll be the first in line to get it voted in.

Dear Demetra,

Perhaps you could have explained to your daughter that those planes are the ones that keep our country safe from bad people. But then again, maybe you thing that saying "bad people" is judgemental and your little darling should not judge.

Fortunately, I don't have that problem. You are a nutjob.

They flew from 305 - 345 - 40 minutes and my kids loved them. Right beside our house is a school and they were using that as a navigational aid for their final flyover, 6 planes in formation; they only flew over 2 times - once Sat and once Sunday. It was awesome.

How can an inanimate object be hateful?

Dear Demetra:

That's the sound of freedom, you "hateful" beeyotch. Nice job training your daughter to be afraid of the people willing to give up everything, including their lives, to defend your right to be said "hateful" beeyotch.

Dear Nutjob,

You are obviously unfit to raise children in a free society protected by a military you despise. Perhaps you would find the free "Democratic People's Republic of Korea" (aka the North Korean hellhole) more to your liking. We will be happy to provide your one-way ticket.

Sincerely,

Real America

If your kid's hiding under the bed when a plane goes over, it's because you haven't done your job of explaining what they are and why they're there. that, or your kid's got a psychological problem, in which case you should be seeking professional help and not wasting your time writing letters to newspapers.

Dear Demetra -

Your daughter is right. Those bad old planes are out to get you. By the time they're finished buzzing every liberal city in the country everyone will be too afraid to go outside to vote and Bush will win a third term. All the children in the world will be sent to bible camp and you'll be ground up for cattle feed.

Have a nice day,
Karl

Why doesn't she teach her daughter about those airplanes instead of allowing her to figure it out on her own?

Dear Miss Delia:

The airplanes are not the hateful ones, in this case.

PS... why is your kid wearing headphones?

In the early 50's we lived at the end of an airbase in Van Nuys CA. My brothers and I watched the Sabre jets take off and they flew so low we could see the pilots in the cockpits and they would return our waves as they flew over...it was awesome!
Dear Demetra....get down on your knees and thank God we have such men and women in our military to keep your sorry arse safe. God bless our troops.

I'd like to wake up every morning to the sound of either the USN Blue Angels or the USAF Thunderbirds flying over my neighborhood.
