Stolen Cessna Lands in Missouri
A cessna stolen out of Thunder Bay, Ontario and escorted by two F-16 fighter jets shortly after it crossed the Canada-U.S. border landed on a Missouri highway Monday. The pilot, Yavuz Berke, a 31-year-old naturalized Canadian citizen, born in Turkey, then tried to escape authorities on foot, but was quickly apprehended.
The story here.
I was listening to Hugh Hewitt when this story broke and thought for sure there was going to be a shootdown, especially when Berke ignored repeated attempts by the F-16 pilots to establish communications.
The Canadian press also has the story.
I thought for sure we had another Frank Corder situation on our hands, although I knew there was no way in Hell this guy going was to get even remotely that far.

SHOOT IT DOWN !!!!
A Cessna flying over ~nothing~ is certainly a terrorist activity.
Where's my gun?
Well, I suppose they could have done completely nothing. I take it you didn't see the links about Frank Corder. So next time, they can do nothing and then when a tragedy occurs, the left can all yell in unison, "Why didn't you do something?"
Please. Don't ever get a job at Customs. I wouldn't be able to sleep at night.
Plus, the guy IS from Turkey. Wasn't there a recent story about an assassination plot coming out of Turkey somewhere?
Racial profiling just simply wouldn't work. Pffft.
You know darn well NOTHING will come close to Washington, DC ever again since September 11th.
Don't dredge up 1994 stuff. It's a new world now.
Oh, that's right....ALL Turks are evil. ALL are in cahoots to overthrow the government.
STOP the fear-mongering. Please.
