If someone called in a bomb threat and said "I'm only going to blow up the areas between the runways; don't worry, there will be no loss of life or limb", I'm pretty sure that the response would be the same.
They are doing this because they know that the risk of danger is high enough that officials will shut down air traffic.
- dvtrn 7y agoExactly. Forcing officials hands by diverting and disrupting normal aviation activity is the exact outcome this group wants. Not a loss of life. It seems that you understand this point quite well. The response may or may not be the same if a bomb threat were called, but that’s not what happened and it seems you clearly understand this; I’m forced to then ask-why stretch the metaphor to the point of absurdity as you’ve done above?
- AnimalMuppet 7y agoUm, to me it looks like you're yelling at the wrong person. I think gok is the one with the bomb threat analogy, not shaftway.
- dvtrn 7y agoNot sure about yelling but I did indeed direct the inquiry to the wrong party. My apologies for this mistake.
