I am a Conservative Member of the Aircraft Owners and Pilots Association. While I agree that a GA airplane can do VERY little damange, I also think this is a very small sacrifice on the grand scheme of things.
By calling it "Gestapo Tactics" you make yourself a troll. If you have something to say - say it - if you criticize and name call - be gone.

Get over it.
Just as an aside, I used to work for a guy who was getting his pilots license.
He used to joke about learning to fly, and was dreading his solo flight.
He told me his instructer gave him one rule to live by: Takeoffs are optional, landings are mandantory.
I thought it was funny, until I REALLY thought about it.
