Will a governor order his/her Air National Guard to shoot down the Chinese balloon? RANT

So, the Bidet Regime will not shoot down the Chinese balloon. It appears not to have an approved FAA flight plan. Considering that China has engaged in biological warfare against the United States with the China Virus and its related mRNA experiments, it is reasonable to assume that this balloon is engaged in further biological warfare against the citizens of the United State. Will some courageous governor order his/her Air National Guard to shoot the danm thing down for the good of all?

Correct me if I’m wrong, but this balloon is probably at 100,000 feet or higher. No fighter in any National Guard fleet can get that high. Not even close.

Well you are wrong. It's altitude is 65,617 feet, and likely descending as it travels:

I can't believe a National Guard fighter couldn't take it down.

Japanese also sent balloons with bombs and incendiary devices. All rigged to go off when the altitude dropped. Caused a lot of wildfires and killed several people

Xi probably called Biden and told him to lay off.

Xi told FJB if he shoots it down no more 10% for the big guy

People have said that anything they surveil with this balloon could be known from satellites or other intelligence.

I suspect the thought is that this has some other purpose.

The Japanese during World War II were experimenting with sending balloons to this country containing some type of bio germ warfare containers.

Called FU GO launched some 9000 hydrogen filled balloons
over 300 reached North America from Alaska to Mexico

Balloons had payload of 15 kg fragmentation bombs and 12kg or 5kg incendiary to start forest fires

The purpose is more biological warfare.

I doubt that would occur. But shoot it down and contaminate
the area where it comes down and blown with the wind.

"So, the Bidet Regime will not shoot down the Chinese balloon."

Maybe it contains a catalog of all the dirt the Chinese have collected on Biden and joe's afraid of who might retrieve it when it comes down.

The balloon is drifting eastward over more populated areas. The window of opportunity for shooting it down only decreases as the chance for collateral damage increases.Shoot it down with small caliber weapon to slowly release gas. Also consider that the balloon is H2 filled(highly flammable gas). The chance for explosion is low because of high altitude and low O2 availability.

Japs sent hundreds of balloons filled with incendiaries to start blazes in Northern Cal, Ore, and Wash. They may have planned stuff from their 731 lab in China. My question is suppose that’s the reason we’re not shooting it down. The ChiComs have let us know it’s filled with deadly and highly conyagious toxin/bacteria/ virus which will be released if shot down.

They’d come up with something.

Interning in national security issue or some such.

So it came in through Canada and hung around over Montana. It then headed south toward St. Louis. What happens if it then takes a course east toward D.C.? Will they do something if it approaches The White House or Pentagon airspace? C’mon man! No big deal, right?

“What happens if it then takes a course east toward D.C.?”

Once it gets over Joe’s place, it’ll release glitter and Skittles as a big ol’ “THANK YOU” for being our embedded spy in America.
