Live near an airport, and complain about the noise

datePosted on 17:55, April 20th, 2009 by QT

Some people living near Seatac airport have been fighting, oh let’s see, for over 20 years now?, about noise and the third runway. costing taxpayers lots of money doing research and defending in court.

So, you bought a house near the only international airport of the NorthWest (getting a good deal for that I’m sure), and you don’t know it would be noisy? Now that just doesn’t make any sense! If I buy a house near the train track, don’t I think it would be noisy? If I move to the country next to a farm, can I sue the farmer for operating his equipment at 5am? If I buy a house in the flood plain, don’t I expect my house might flood at one point? If I live in california, don’t you think I should have “earthquake” in my mind?

People, don’t fat up the lawyers, they’re no good as food!

People are losing their common sense
