City Supervisor John Avalos, who long has waged a public battle decrying the squadron's aerial acrobatics over San Francisco -- at one point calling them loud "killing machines" -- has introduced a nonbinding resolution to require the jets to only fly over the bay.
He says the ban on flights over populated areas is needed to protect residents, and give them peace of mind.
“It’s about them crashing and hitting a building — a place where people live,” Avalos told the San Francisco Chronicle. “It’s about the terror that they cause in people when they strafe neighborhoods. That’s something I hear about all the time when Blue Angels fly overhead.”
While facing plenty of Twitter backlash for his comments, Avalos claimed a majority of residents oppose the flyovers that take place during the annual Fleet Week in October.

Pisses in the streets...
EVERYBODY IN SAN FRANCISCO DOES...
A 10-15 block radius from the downtown square... smells like rancid human urine 24-7-365...
Not sure of his HEP C status?
Ban driving in the city, then. It is statistically much safer to fly than to drive.

But I'm a fan of the Blue Angels and the Thunderbirds and go to air shows about once a year. They demonstrate how skilled our fighter pilots are and the superiority of American fighter planes.
Based on this we need to shut down most or all US major airports.
The FFA controls what they can do during their shows (at civilian airports) and this panty waste needs to shut the hell up and go back to coloring.
