Japan already tried it back during WWII.  With a marked lack of any real success.
Between November 1944 and April 1945, the Japanese military launched more than 9,000 of the pilotless weapons in an operation codenamed “Fu-Go”.  Most of the balloons fell harmlessly into the Pacific Ocean, but more than 300 of the low-tech white orbs made the 5,000-mile crossing and were spotted fluttering in the skies over the western United States and Canada — from Holy Cross, Alaska, to Nogales, Arizona, and even as far east as Grand Rapids, Michigan.  In March 1945, one balloon even hit a high-tension power line and caused a temporary blackout at the Hanford, Washington, plant that was producing plutonium that would be used in the atomic bomb dropped on Nagasaki five months later.  None of the balloons, however, had caused any injuries — until Reverend Archie Mitchell’s church group came across the wreckage of one on Gearhart Mountain (near Bly, Oregon).

Yes, I suppose I could agree with you ... but then we'd both be wrong, wouldn't we?

It might be possible to launch the balloons from off shore and never enter US territorial waters.

Judges 15

3...Samson said to them, “This time I will be blameless in doing harm to the Philistines.” 4 Then Samson went out and caught three hundred Fox anchors. And he took torches, turned them tail-to-tail, and fastened a torch between each pair of tails. 5 Then he lit the torches and released them into the standing grain of the Philistines, burning up the piles of grain and the standing grain, as well as the vineyards and olive groves.…
For Christianity, by identifying truth with faith, must teach-and, properly understood, does teach-that any interference with the truth is immoral. A Christian with faith has nothing to fear from the facts

Who is talking about killing people I am referring to economic warfare, not death but poverty. You know what I mean, living on the streets, wearing rages and eating out of garbage cans. That is what liberals deserve since that is what they want to do to us with their Green New Deal.

I am sorry that some innocent people would be hurt, but how do you make war without hurting some innocents? And at any rate it is not our decision we carry no blame if your enemy hurts you.

Now they are living on the streets (good) but wearing rages (not so good).

Tioga Pass Update
June 17, 2019
Road crews are patching potholes, cleaning ditches and road side debris and forestry is wrapping up immediate hazard tree work that needs to be done. The Avalanche Team performed one final blast on Olmsted to primarily charcoal the upper section.
Yesterday we were able to work each end of Olmsted to narrow this area down to about 100 yards wide and you can now see each vehicle pass through the zone from each end. The west bound lane is still acting as the toe of the snow remaining on the slope so we are not able to remove at this time. The area is finally beginning to melt out but it needs to reduce in volume/depth before we can change to just a no stopping zone. We are hoping that by early next week we will see dramatic difference in snow levels with the water running off the slope.

It is a bit of a spring, early summer, bicycling thing in the west to ride highways that are closed due to snow; no vehicle traffic, weather pretty good, clean road until you get to end of the road.
