Unbelievable

These assholes, in the guise of either being "funny" or instructing you how not to disrupt Bush's inauguration, are actually oh-so-cutely telling anarchists and assorted other dipshits how to spoof air controllers into thinking DC might be under attack by unknown aircraft.

Consider the time when you transport your balloons. For instance, if the wind speed is 15mph and you are 30 miles upwind from Washington, make sure you don't accidentally release any balloons 2 hours before the Ceremony. Keep in mind that winds aloft are stronger than on the surface, so this may not be a perfect formula for determining the worse time to lose a balloon, it may be sooner. Whatever you do, don't lose them at 15 minute intervals, because if all of them were lost this way, at least one would most certainly be overhead during the Inauguration which would be a real disaster.


Don't tie long strips of aluminum foil on your balloons. This is very dangerous, because if one of your balloons was accidentally blown from your hands, these bits of foil would make the balloon have a radar cross section of a 747. You wouldn't want the Air Force to think the skies over Washington were filled with commercial airliners, especially in the no fly zone.


Always wear gloves when handling your Mylar balloons. The sharp edges can cause cuts on your hand if not handled properly, and besides, who wants those smudgy fingerprints, that ruin the shiny surface, for all to see.

...

Hopefully, enough people in the Washington area will take this advice and there will be no problems in the skies over the Inauguration. After all, you wouldn't want the President's speech drown out by the sounds of interceptor jets, would you?


You know what else we wouldn't want to happen? We wouldn't want the Secret Service to raid this asshole's house and then, mistakenly believing him to be armed, beat him repeatedly about the face until his teeth fly out of his mouth like popcorn.

We definitely would not want that to happen, and I advise the Secret Service against doing so most strenuously.

Thanks to See-Dubya.

And we wouldn't want some big guy named Bubba to futt buck Buck Fush, while he is in prison after Secret Service is done with him, mistakenly believing him to be a sock cucker.

Like I said over at my blog - if these guys were 1/10th as crafty as they think they are, they could build a goddamn ICBM and be done with it.

IS THAT SUPPOSED TO BE SARCASM? I DON'T GET IT!

Maybe some Lance Ito jokes. Those were always funny, and no one mentions him anymore.

Word of advice to Secret Service:

Don't forget to not put on rubber gloves before you don't go into this guy's house and not plant something really incriminating before you don't (do?) get an anonymous tip that leads to a search warrant that puts him away for 25-30 years.

Hey Ace,

Whoever the cutesy moonbat is that thought this up ought to update his knowledge of radar and threat identification. I've spent 18 years working on this sort of stuff, and unless the inaugural is guarded by radar sites surplused out from the Battle of Britain, this won't even come close to doing what they hint at.

But what else would you expect...

Posted by: Chilly Willy on January 19, 2005 04:09 PM

Nothing quite as hilarious as deliberately engaging in terrorism hoaxes. Regular chuckle fest, I tell you. It just gets funnier if a real terrorist gets through because the authorities are checking into your false alarm.

Just think, whenever you go out with your buddies drinking they can say, "Buy this guy a drink, he's the one who ran interference against The Man for Abu Infidelkiller when he set off that suitcase nuke in Washington DC." Bragging rights for life, man.

This rotten muthafuckah needs to be arrested, tried and sentenced to a good long term for inciting a terrorism hoax against the innauguration. Despite his language, his instructions are clear. Or are they? I think we need to get him and grill him at Guantonimo Bay for about 5 years, after all we wouldn't want terrorists communicating instructions to each other, would we?

Posted by: 72VIRGINS on January 19, 2005 04:49 PM

Obviously these idiots think a "99 Luftballon" incident is really possible.

"..unless the inaugural is guarded by radar sites surplused out from the Battle of Britain..."

What a perfect analogy.

This has got to be a "Rove plant" though; set up the moonbats to try to disrupt the inaugaration with ineffective techniques which you're sure to get caught eventually WHILE , at the same time, boasting the fragile "ballon" industry!

Posted by: JFH on January 19, 2005 05:05 PM

Gee, I just happen to know "someone" in DHS.

Shame if they found out about this chucklehead.

But it would be horrible if I told this "someone" about this, so I won't.

We will continue to get this kind of crap until we call treason by its name and start hanging the deserving perps.

Posted by: thoughtomator on January 19, 2005 05:32 PM

My buddy's mom works with the Boston FBI, he was giving me shit b/c through my site he found internet haganah, which led him to a terrorist site - lol - he was all freaked out that his mom was gonna get in trouble. ... In any case, I just passed the link along to him to get to his mom.

If the fed's don't already know about this though:
1) I don't want to think about what that implies and
2) They might just want to run a WHOIS on the guy and pay a visit

It would indeed be a shame if all those anarchist goofballs are spotted releasing foil balloons a few miles upwind of DC and in a desperate effort to ensure they are not terrorists, their IDs are obtained and a Fed Judge authorizes counter-terror search warrants.

The warrants are called into several town's police depts, then cops head into Junior's parent's house, guns drawn. Where every good little anarchist works and lives rather than hold down an oppressive job. Whereupon they search Junior's room and take his hardrive, papers, cellphone stuff....and take everyother hard drive in the house.

Of course, Junior is released in 10 days after the investigation shows no terrorism was involved.

But good things happen.

1. Junior comes home to find Mom & Dad have moved all his stuff out on the lawn, were it sits in a frozen pile for Junior or the greedy oppressor garbageman to take away in a few days.

2. All those nifty anarchist contacts come out from the hardrives, cells, and papers that were copied before the originals were given back.

3. The Muslims are delighted that non-Muslims were busted, not them.

4. Junior sues the owner of FuckBush.com for posting the dumb stunt of releasing the balloons.

Did that thing inply that a single balloon with some tin foil attached would leave a radar cross-section equivalent to a 747? I am no expert but that seems really loony.

It's been forwarded to the appropriate agencies.

Some people liked Candace Owens because she was a black woman who told hard truths about BLM and black criminality. But this was always a grift. She started out as a race hustler for a grift, then hustled race the other way to grift conservatives, and now she's back to being a race-hustler for the left again. Specifically, she is now claiming that people pointing out that she is legitimately low-IQ and can't pronounce half the words her AI-generated teleprompter script points out to her is racist and just Ben Shapiro's way of saying the n-word without quite saying it. You see, you can only say that black people are smart, and if you see a dumb one that doesn't know how to pronounce simple words while she poses as an investigatory journalist, you have to pretend she's actually smart or you're a racist. Weird, that doesn't sound very conservative, let alone "#Based," to me. To prove how much she hates racism, she then says that Ben Shapiro's Jew ancestors were masters of the slave trade.

Ami Kozak: Every single Tucker Carlson episode consists of him claiming he didn't say the things he said in the last episode
Also: this is the manipulation Tucker does that i hate the most. It's so cowardly. All he does is smear people (and Jews, generally), and then claim "I have nothing against [the person or group I just smeared.]" He'll even claim "I love [x], actually." Just again and again and again. It's all a lie, of course. A year ago he smeared Jews but added how beautiful he thought Israel was, and then two weeks ago, he said Israel is ugly as dog-shit and nothing beautiful has been built there "since 1948."
Just got this email from Dracula: "I love Van Helsing, actually, he's one of my personal heroes, if I'm being honest. I will claw the heart out of his belly and bathe in his blood before the children of Babylon, but I have nothing but respect for Van Helsing, actually. Love is the answer. Except for the followers of the Christ whom I am commanded to turn into my dark army of Satan. And I totally don't worship Satan, I just think we should listen to both sides. Hugs and kisses, may Van Helsing burn in the blood-red fires of hell throughout eternity, even though I consider him a close and dear friend, Vlad called Dracul."
