Two F-16 fighter jets from NORAD followed a stolen Cessna across the country. A man from Turkey, who was a Canadian citizen for a year, stole it and flew it into our country.

And we're worried about Mexicans... :D

EDIT: I have to ask. Could the plane have been flown into a building? Yes. Did the Patriot Act prevent this from happening? I don't think so.

Nah man, a black man stole the plane and went for a joyride. Then he was kept down from the sky by the white man.
