What did they learn that they haven't already learned through satellites? The military purposely waited until it was over water. They took precautions and had every chance to shoot it down earlier if they thought it was necessary.

@KrazeDiamond They didn't actually wait for it to drop to 30,000ft. Every article says it was shot down while hovering between 60,000 and 65,000ft. Besides, the F-22 can fly up to 60,000ft. I think it's true that they just didn't want to shoot it down over a populated area.

@KrazeDiamond Why wouldn't I believe they wanted to wait until it was over water? There is literally no reason for anyone to lie about that. Think about it.

The military had every opportunity to shoot it down and chose not to. I think we can assume they took the necessary precautions since they decided to wait until it was over water.

@Goodpatron Well the military told us they took precautions. But I guess you're allowed to have a different opinion since I guess you were in the room when the generals made the decision.

@Goodpatron And just because someone says something doesn't mean you need to assume it's a lie. Seriously. What reason would the military have to lie about that?? They are the ones with the most to lose. You're letting the conspiracy side of your mind run wild with accusations that don't even make any sense. You're basically calling our military, the strongest in the world, weak and stupid.

@Goodpatron True patriots respect our men and women in uniform. Without any evidence, you accused the miltary of lying to the American people. If you hate our military maybe America is not the place for you.

@Williestyle-RobotechxMacross-x Maybe because theybwerent sure what it was at that time. You'd have to ask the military. But Biden wasn't briefed until it was already over Montana. In case you're insinuating it might have been his fault.

@imo8249 What would you prefer the media talk about?

@srappytrex3946 But given that they knew the balloon was there, they clearly wouldn't have let the equipment react.

@srappytrex3946 Well then you just answered your own question. If we couldn't shoot it down, then we couldn't shoot it down. The end. The jets and missiles we have are what we have.
1
@srappytrex3946 So what's your point? Are you looking for someone to blame or just calling out the inadequacies of our jets and missiles?
1
@srappytrex3946 You were asking why they didn't respond earlier. Then you answered your own question by saying out jets and missiles are not good. I was wondering what the motive was choose not to believe it was about safety and instead choose to criticize our military hardware, without concrete evidence.
