My God, this is so antithetical to America that I
can't believe you're posting it.


You don't FLY without a pilot's license, medical exam,
certification....before you fly over my house and endanger the public.

What's the difference in a boat on the ICW or harbor or shipping lane?

Why is that different than a Cessna 150? Any fool can fly a Cessna 150!
Hell, it flies itself unless you force it not to!

Of course you can fly without a pilot's license: Go Ultralight. Don't even
need a driver's license. Nobody aboard but yourself, you can only kill
yourself -- unless, of course, you happen to crash into a crowd of "innocent
bystanders" at Oshkosh.

What's the difference?

Eliminate the "if you get into trouble we'll come try to save you for free,
possibly dying in the process" element from the Government, and the issue
solves itself, and people remain FREE. YOU would put them into some
ridiculous playpen with the Government Nanny watching over them. A pox upon
them and anyone who proposes such nonsense.

You can have the illusion of safety or you can be free. Choose.
