The annual Blue Angel nuisance

It's that time of the year again when the people of San Francisco must be harassed by our own military, the Navy's Blue Angels.

When Dianne Feinstein was mayor, she objected to the annoying bullyiing by the military:

Mayor Dianne Feinstein, whose windows at City Hall shook along with those of hundreds of others, ''got on the telephone to the Navy and ordered them to bring those planes down,'' according to her spokesman, Tom Eastham..

The Mayor's office, the police and the authorities at San Francisco International Airport were flooded by telephone calls as six A-4 fighter jets swooped over the city.

''The Mayor was concerned that so many people were frightened,'' said Mr. Eastham, who acknowledged the Mayor had no actual authority to ban the planes from San Francisco's airspace.

 Mayor Breed would never do the same.

“Nuisance” “harassment”
“Frightened”

Sounds like an old angry hag having a problem with children playing outside accidentally kicking a ball onto her front lawn.

Go find yourselves a bingo game and STFU

"Nuisance" is the word I use, though the annoying military display surely frightens other animals, like dogs and cats. I bet if this annual Pentagon terrorism was on the ballot, city voters would vote against it.

This seems odd - wasn't Feinstein one of the biggest promoters of Fleet Week? At some point in all the planning for it, I can't imagine the Navy didn't tell her that there would be an air show.
