Most of us know how slow The Government works. All the facts and figures about the plane, where it took off, flight plan, etc., I sincerely doubt the boys in the F-16s were so enlightened at the split-second deployment.

First time in the restricted airspace, shake them up, steer them away. Second time, I'm sorry, but they should have shot the plane down.

We can argue about plane's contents, whatever. But whoever this guy was, I agree with Paul, he's VERY lucky to be alive.
