Police, fire depts. still can't talk
So let me try to get this straight. They pay millions of dollars per year to set up a "Defense Zone" around DC to protect from these horrible little planes. They spend billions on "enhanced security" and all this other stuff to "protect us" and pass regulation after regulation making life more difficult (and costly) for law abiding citizens while doing very little to deter terrorists, and yet our Fire Depts. still can't coordinate with Police Depts.
You may recall the previous incident where the FAA and Homeland InSecurity failed to pick up telephones and coordinate before scrambling jets after the very dangerous and evil Governor of Kentucky (who had filed and was following an approved flight plan). Think how much worse things can be then if fire and police couldn't coordinate during an attack. When are they finally going to put money where it can actually be used to make a difference?
