Default The Blue Angels Should be Disbanded

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.

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

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

I believe there is a required number of hours in the air to maintain
their pilot rating. Putting those hours in to precision air shows not
only lets the public see the level of skill required of our pilots, but
also gives the pilot experience that will be required if they ever are
required to fly in combat.

It seems like a win win situation.

Sometimes... depends if I'm around. A few years ago they scared the crap out
of city dwellers... rattling windows and such.

Should the Clintons be relected to the Whitehouse?
