I believe the Navy's Blue Angels should be disbanded. Besides being
costly and diverting resources, they are an unecessary danger to
civilians and private property. Let them practice their hijinx over the
open ocean or in a combat zone. What measurable purpose do they serve?
None, it's time they go.

Wjhat urpose do they serve? They are the palpable reminder of what a great
country we are with accomplished military men...they are a symbol, a
patriotic show, and are amazing...crap happens...too bad it happened to
that young man...I suppos you want to ban circuses, fairs, and movies too?
After all, danger lurks everywhere...maybe you'd just best stay inside and
not come out...



Apparently the jets are able to be converted back to pure military with guns
and such very quickly, should the need arise.
