Why? That's how driver's licenses are issued, and are denied based on age, criminal history and a host of administrative reasons - and those criteria vary from state to state. Pilot's licenses are issued by the FAA, and thus are pretty uniform. But if they were done by state, and had different criteria by state, I have no reason to believe they'd be any more onerous than driver's licenses. >So you would be OK this scenario playing out for you personally: you have a valid >medical, you meet the flight currency requirements, have plenty of experince, but you >can't fly you plane into CA's LA county because LA is restricting county pilot licenses >on a basis that is not requirement based. Happens all the time. Many places do not allow pilots with sport or recreational certificates, or who fly LSA's, to land at their airports. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

That's how driver's licenses are issued, and are denied based on age, criminal history and a host of administrative reasons - and those criteria vary from state to state. That isn't even close... criminal history, age, etc are all quantified and specific criteria. If you don't meet the specified criteria that is a no brainer. You are honestly telling me that you think losing your drivers license because of a DUI is the same as being arbitarily denied a driver license despite meeting all of the state's specified requirments, and having no disqualifying characteristics, just because that county only wants to issue drivers licenses to a select chosen few?"The restraining order says you're only allowed to touch me in freefall" =P Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

kallend 1,623 #30 September 13, 2011 Quote Quote Quote Quote Typical Kallend. If this was a thread about restricting private pilots licenses you would be bawling like a baby about your rights. When it comes to others rights fuckem! Or toy rocket motors. Don't forget that horrible travesty of justice, when the BATF wanted to regulate really big toy rocket motors. Oh the horror! Sucks for you that the judge agreed with me. Sucks for you that the Supreme Court agrees with the 2nd Amendment. No, I agree with the SCOTUS interpretation of the not unlimited rights bestowed by the 2nd.... The only sure way to survive a canopy collision is not to have one.

Since it seems, then, that United States District Court Judge Reggie Walton agreed with both of us, why would it suck for me? You are being illogical (as usual)...

DougH 270 #39 September 13, 2011 Care to address what I wrote, or are you going to continue attacking posters, and dismissing peoples arguments as stupid without actually considering them. You would think that an academik like yourself would display a little more integrity in the way they debated things.

Yes, it is hard to tell when you say something and then when called out on it later claim it to have been a joke because you can't defend your earlier position. So, a simple question. Should a non-prohibited person in CA be allowed to carry a concealed weapon? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
