• There seems to be an uptick in Political comments in recent months. Those of us who are long time members of the site know that Political and Religious content has been banned for years. Nothing has changed. Please leave all political and religious comments out of the forums.

    If you recently joined the forums you were not presented with this restriction in the terms of service. This was due to a conversion error when we went from vBulletin to Xenforo. We have updated our terms of service to reflect these corrections.

    Please note any post refering to a politician will be considered political even if it is intended to be humor. Our experience is these topics have a way of dividing the forums and causing deep resentment among members. It is a poison to the community. We appreciate compliance with the rules.

Sorry Henry, I never disagree with you about anything but in this case I do. The fact that the offending party happens to be a politican or a powerful business man or whoever, the effects are the same. To impose this TFR on an island that the main way of transporting from one island to another is General Aviation shows an absolute, ignorant, abuse of power.
The TFR in the plains of Texas or even in the wilds of Maine is one thing. But to bottle up a way of life on an island's people just so a man and his family can enjoy a vacation is deplorable and something should be said.

To get this in before this thread gets stopped I just have to say you are wrong wrong wrong HD, period. The sitting president didn't write the TFR, the secret service (I'd guess anyway...) did. To call it an abuse of power, is just wrong. Perhaps the president isn't even aware of how much interruption this will cause, as people such as us who are more aviation minded do understand. This is just another way for the right-wingers to blame something on this president is all... You guys need to muck-up and deal with the fact we'll have it this way for at least another 3 years, if not 7... Just my 2 cents is all...:frown:
