Short staffing is not new nor are whistleblower complaints by air traffic controllers. This was an accident waiting to happen.
Air traffic controllers in the US have been warning about the impact of low staffing levels for years, submitting anonymous reports to NASA’s Aviation Safety Reporting System. At least 10 reports submitted by controllers included concerns about staffing, work schedules or fatigue in the last year alone, the NASA database shows.
“We have been short staffed for too many years and it’s creating so many unsafe situations,” one controller in Southern California wrote last year, recounting how a small aircraft requesting assistance could not be helped due to workload issues. “The FAA has created an unsafe environment to work and for the flying public. The controllers’ mental health is deteriorating.”

Can't seem to Edit previous posts but also meant to say what people do in the privacy of their own home with regards to (LGB) I believe has not been legislated against in any way and I for one have no issues with that not everyone is the same in the world (and the world would be boring if we were) but the way people live their lives as long it is legal should not affect national policy on anything, it would be like saying to an alcoholic or a drug addict here's free Vodka and Meth because we are worried about your DEI
WRT MLK definitely a legend and changed the way of politics for the better at the time, it would be like having a DT day in a couple of decades 🤣
