Good to know someone can still intimidate them. I swear the last show of force I did they gave me the finger.

They, like everyone else, fear the A-10. They're afraid that if the A-10 moves into the neighborhood, property values will drop like a stone.

That might have worked well in the first year against people who didn't really know how US aircraft employed ordnance, but by now they've seen the puppet show and are aware.
