4/7 SF Military Planes Terrorize the City
by San Francisco Voter Monday April 07, 2003 at 07:18 PM
At 1 p.m. on Monday, April 7, 2003, illegally low-flying military jets terrorized the busy downtown shopping and business area of San Francisco with its horrifying roar from the Bay over the stinking gambling racket known as professional baseball at the worthless stadium, for which we taxpayers pay, even though it is supposedly privately owned.

This illegal, horrifying nightmare is just a small taste of what the people of Iraq are experiencing 24 hours a day so the same fascist, wasteful gang of murderers, the Nazi USA's military, can make possible the oil profits that the oil companies desire.
Considering San Francisco has at least 1 million people in town on a weekday, with most people concentrated in the downtown area near the baseball stadium, and the stadium itself seats about 43,000 people, which it probably had on this opening day, the danger and criminality is that much greater.
This whole stinking spectacle was to glorify war while wasting our tax dollars and oil and making terrible noise, and it was all completely illegal over a densely populated city. There was absolutely nothing thrilling about it at all.
This baseball stadium, the first of the two stadium swindles promoted by that stinking fascist, anti-tenant, organized crime, election-frauding thug, "mayor" Willie Brown, in March 1996, is ostensibly privately owned, but like everything else costs us money in terms of city services for it, as Willie Brown admitted after the election. This stadium swindle was supported by the Democratic and Republican Central Committees, Willie Brown, all of the leading candidates for mayor, including Tom Ammiano and Angela Alioto, and all other elected officials from San Francisco at that time. It has not brought any prosperity to San Francisco at all. It merely promotes the gambling racket known as professional baseball, on the few days of the year that it is here. The other days, the city has to scramble to find entertainment to fill this boondoggle.
