If he had wanted to land, they would have helped Him do so. You are now moving the goal post. The guy took off from a faa regulated airport, he flew in FAA regulated airspace, he disobeyed all sorts of orders and faa regulations, all sorts of orders, and he was not shot down like you suggested. He was intercepted and allowed to fly for several minutes performing aerobatics in violation of faa rules and was not shot down. All in controlled airspace.

Absolutely not. You are creating a false equivalency. You are comparing flying a commercial flight from one place to another while ignoring FAA demands not to, to a guy stealing a prop plane (which HAD fighter jets in tow) and crashing a few miles away.
As I said, if he had flown towards any place other than THE LITERAL OCEAN, you know as well as I do that he would have been shot down.
You’re being intellectually dishonest and at this point it’s just annoying more than anything
Again, he would not have been shot down for breaking the rules or flying without permission. The only way he'd have been shot down is if he posed "(quote) AN IMMINENT THREAT OF SERIOUS BODILY INJURY OR DEATH" It's the exact same standard for cops, or even you and I.

I’ll say it again. Rent a commercial airliner and fly it from one coast to the other without responding to FAA demands to land. If you do it successfully, I’ll reimburse you for the rental cost. And fuck it, I’ll throw in a hundred grand on top of it.
You know you would be shot down. I know you don’t think they’d wait for you to point your nose at an occupied building before firing. Annoying intellectual dishonesty.
