Some of us CAN handle it. The problem is that about half of our citizens are on the left-hand side of the bell curve and a lot of them would freak out. They would freak anytime they saw an airplane fly over, sure it was the first wave of the alien invasion.

I've dealt with a lot of those types of people over the years. They are the same ones that believe each and every conspiracy story that rolls by. I've known a lot of nuts that are already convinced that the Government is controlled by other than the American people. China, Russia, Aliens, Communists you name it and there are some that believe it.

Although I agree with the sentiments expressed, I think this is little more than grandstanding on the Congressman's part. In my career we dealt with a fair number of congressional reps who were far more interested in letting people know they were asking questions than in the answers received.

If Burchett was informed and really cared, I think he would have asked why the new agency was dealing only with reports occurring in military airspace.

I laughed a bit when I read this. It sounded a bit snarky to me.

Did you listen to his speech (to a mostly empty room) on the video? It was really snarky.
