STATEN ISLAND, N.Y. -- A planned military flyover scheduled to take place over New York City waters on Friday, the 19th anniversary of Sept. 11, has sparked condemnation on social media — with many labeling the ceremony as “tone deaf” and “disrespectful.”

The New York City Emergency Management’s Notify NYC message indicated that an F-18 jet will conduct a flyover on the Hudson River headed toward the Verrazzano-Narrows Bridge at 3:30 p.m. Friday. The aircraft is expected to fly at approximately 2,500 feet.

Rep. Max Rose (D-Staten Island/Brooklyn) slammed the idea Thursday afternoon.

“Are you out of your mind? Cancel this immediately,” Rose wrote on Twitter.

WNU Editor: It appears that many are opposed to it. I personally have no problem with this flyover. It should go as scheduled.

Update: They cancelled the event .... Navy cancels training flight over NYC on 9/11 after criticism (The Hill). It apparently was a training mission.

Liberals would have pissed their pants and other liberals would have expressed faux anger and deep seated rage.

Liberals and other retards think of the military the same way as they think of police. Liberals hate on the police until something happens and then they call 911.
