Better a military copter than the usual in Vegas. Cops are very aggressive in their use. Going after kids parking in the desert, buzzing RV parks. Friend of mine was in financial trouble and had tag sales at her house once or twice a month to make ends meet. That stopped when, one day, she is out in her drive way selling stuff and a police chopper circled above and called in ground forces to shut her down.
If there is anything good which will come out of this it is that the authorities will stop the BS with law abiding citizens and start going after the real threats.

Dang flying saucer!
Those little green men need to watch it! Aggravating!
The grays are much better flyers.

I've seen two such helicopters flying low over I-495 which is the beltway that rings Washington, D.C. It was very disconcerting. Someone told me it's the aircraft that checks for speeders. Why I've never seen it before September 11, I don't know.

Shucks, just your military protecting the citizens... go out and give them a big wave. Don't you feel good now that you can see them about knowing they are watching over you?

Hmmmm...going to Vegas next month. I was debating between the Venetian and the Bellagio. Think I'll try the former.

I wouldn't be too worried. Maybe Steve Winn bought him a black hawk and he was just visiting Bellagio to see how bad the service has gotten since he sold it.

thanks for the info ... ... don't pay any attention to Poohbah, he always harasses everyone ... ... I happen to know that whenever army helicopters fly over civilian areas they generate complaint calls from citizens and the army is very sensitive to civilian complaint calls; so I'd say they were engaged in their job if they were 100 ft above the freeway rather than just hot-dogging. Perhaps the helo was fitted with special equipment to allow them to listen to conversations in cars if they point the device towards that car. Such devices exist. Who knows?
