He didn't just complain about NASA monoplozing space travel he went out and did something about it and did this even when people thought he was crazy. He now owns a commercial space line.

I like what you are saying. But please correct me if I'm wrong, doesn't Rutan have one foot in the black ops military industrial complex? I believe the Predator, Stealth, and other designs are ones that Rutan participated with under the same big, black ops budget. Also, I was under the impression that Rutan has received grant after grant from NASA, NSF, etc.

I could be wrong about all of this.

The petition is to have Supreme Court Justices financial assets seized by sheriffs for violation of the Constitution under perjury.
