This would be hilarious if it were not so mind-blowingly stupid.

At least it doesn't have the WTF level of the "FAA closes El Paso airspace, then reverses itself the next day" incident from a few weeks ago.

Anyway, I miss having a competent government.

@edbott the El Paso stupid wasn't the closure though, it was the "laser weapons against party balloons", right?

Frankly, I wouldn't want anyone in the air over a place where someone has given laser weapons to complete morons...

@gainfullydozy I mean, it’s stupid all the way down, like Wile E. Coyote crashing down a canyon wall.

@edbott yeah, that's true. In Mr Coyote's defense, at least he'd usually bring a comically small umbrella to try and slow his fall, or to shelter himself from an anvil, which shows he had some (admittedly feeble) thought for the future.

That's more than we can say for this bunch of clowns.
