Again you are avoiding the question , and again the reason is obvious. The ferries constitute a substantial threat, and the best place to deal with that threat is on the ferries themselves. By their own admission, no comprehensive plan for dealing with such threats has been put together by the Washington State Ferry System.

To pretend that the use of other boats or guns adequately deals with the threat is nonsense, but it does fit nicely with the lunacy of opting to have our fighters shoot down commercial aircraft rather than to allow armed pilots.

But in all fairness, the ferries are taking some steps. This week they announced that no one but the crew would be allowed on the bridge.

Because you're too stubborn to dig up a single fact on carrier defenses to support you clam and take that discussion out of a fantasy level. I told you how to fix it. You're just being a little pest now.
