Air Force wants to close Ohio's road because of "security"

This is one of these times when a city needs to stand up and be defiant.

The Air Force wants to close a mile-long part of State Route 444 in Fairborn, Ohio, near Wright-Patterson Air Force Base - citing a Bush-era "security" guideline. The city of Fairborn opposes the effort because of traffic problems.

Um, it's a state route. Thus, it's Ohio's road. Not the Air Force's.

No explanation by the Air Force was offered as to why the road must be closed - other than the fact that it's needed to comply with the Bush regime's fiat.

Hell, if I was the city of Fairborn, and if the Air Force put a barricade across my road, the barrier would be gone within the day.

  1. Doubt there's much Fairborn can do about it. They a police force, but just one of those jets up at Wright-Patt could level the city.
