F-16s Chase Stolen Canadian Plane

The chase began with a stolen plane from a Canadian flight school, meandered through three states with U.S. fighter jets hot on the trail and forced the evacuation of the state Capitol in Wisconsin.

It ended about seven hours later in a Midwestern town of 360 people inside a general store off a narrow, dirt road -- with the suspect sipping on a Gatorade, waiting to be cuffed.

You have to admit, that would be fun...being chased by the USAF! Go out guns ablazing.

they should have shot his ass down.......looks like a terrorist to me. who knows what his intentions were, even he did "say" he was trying to committ suicide(hmmmmm, have quite alot of suicide bombers now-a-days). i honestly don't take this very lightly, and funny at all. shyt like this after 9/11 is a definite NO GO!!

Oh, it is very serious and he should have been shot outta the sky. You wonder why he didn't get it. I mean, so what he has f-16s off his wing, he wasn't listening, he was flying over the capital of that state and talking about dying. Let's not forget, he stole the plane in the first place. It isn't like he was flying around and suddenly lost it. He had a plan, and I doubt NORAD knew what that was. No, he would have made a nice fireball, that is all I can say.

Make him in fireworks. Seriously, who doesn't love a good pyrotechnics show?
