      Only if you buy a plane, fly there, and start throwing shit on random passersby. By this logic, the crazy hobos own every city downtown. I could see the apologists there.

      “Maybe you should stay away from what Methface Pete considers their own backyard! Of course you will get pissed on! What do you mean it’s a public underpass!?”

            The United States has many many many problems, but comparing United States and China’s air capabilities, US objectively wins. Unless, of course, China has some secret mega projects and hidden production capabilities. Which is very unlikely with current spying technologies.
