With that being said, Amtrak had a bunch of crashes throughout their history where people got killed, but a lot of people on the train survived as well. Also "Positive Train Control" improved train safety a lot.

What you know about PTC breh :obama:

All this person is doing is capitalizing off of the fears caused by the Blackhawk/Commercial Airliner crash a few months ago.

Newark averaging around 1200 flights in and out per day without incident.

Air remains the safest form of transportation, especially when compared to auto.

This is like when all these so-called commentators were saying, "DON'T DO X" after 9/11 or the London Bombings.

Hysterical horseshyt. Stop spreading and buying into fear propaganda.
Man shut your bothsides having ass up, ol I think I bring something to the conversation having ass n-gga

More than 20% of Newark air traffic controllers ‘walked off the job,’ sparking 4-hour delays


You really not paying attention to what’s going on. At least do a minimal amount of research before posting. shyt, even the video touched on this huge reduction in workforce, so you obviously posted without even watching it.

EDIT: just went through your post history and realized you are maga/bothsider running interference

:snoop:

Taking race out of it (though, there are a lot of black folks rocking with dude as well), a lot of men support Trump because they see stuff like this happening every day and are a bit sick of it. Now I'm not saying that I excuse his racist supporters, but not everything they say is crazy.

The point is, the people who were supposed to fight for your reparations wanted nothing to do with it out of cowardice.

That's a much larger issue, to me, than what Trump is doing.

It means there is no bulwark to protect you and yours, even those that look like you and claim to share in your values are not willing to fight for what is best for you.

What I understood him to mean--in the context of the conversation (cutting a trillion in waste, fraud, and abuse) and based off of Trump reading a list of inefficiencies in social security a few days prior-- the fraud and waste inside these programs is wrong.

The way he said it wasn't perfect, but I didn't take it to mean, "we need to completely get rid of these programs because they are just wrong."



But that's not true. I believe most people who voted for Trump are looking for this policy.

They believe that shipping out cheap labor and taxing imports helps American industry and labor.

Whether that's true or not is up for discussion.

I'm not crying over Ukrainians but this is nasty. There can be no doubt now that this is all about Russia. No way to p*ssyfoot around this.

Same. Another one of these lame ass Trump threads from an unhinged shill.

Pure loser shyt.

More evidence of the Trump administration's blatent racism against...

*checks notes*

Oh, Europeans.

I always love when black people say, "yea, they want to deport black people to other countries."

As if black people have some strong military or weapon that is preventing it from happening.

If they wanted to deport you, they could do so and there would be nothing you could do about it. Not a single thing.

Instead you're sitting around typing out unhinged nonsense on an iPhone, on the Internet, while living in the most prosperous nation on earth.

None of Trump's policies have affected me or the people I love. Same goes for you. You're just making general meaningless statements.

ATC didn’t “walk of the job”.. that’s spin by some United CEO I believe

They were already short staffed, had a small plane accident and then this radar/comms issue that has been going on for awhile and 5-6 of them took “trauma/sick leave”

I’ve heard some rumor and stories about that place and I really don’t understand how they are doing it over there. I’m a certified ATC at a high level facility and you couldn’t pay me enough to go there. Absolutely not.

Their staffing has been essentially cut in half, half of their trainees aren’t close to being done certified, I heard they’re having an entire DAYS of 6 controllers, including on the mid. That’s insane.

For context we routinely have 18-20 on shift per day, and if starts to fall below that we call in OT

All you did was quote a bunch of my valid posts.

Look man, you didnt make an argument or really add anything to mine.

I said air travel is still the safest for of transpo. Also said this guy is stoking fears due to recent Raegan incident. Both are true.

Again. Sounds just like all of the fear stoking that takes place after a terror incident. Don't fly here, don't go there.

Man, go live your fukking life.

1. You're deflecting from the information given in this thread because you're running interference for Trumps administration. Your post history provides an insight into how you've been consistently doing this.

2. You still haven't addressed the 20% reduction in ATC. The video spoke on it and I quoted and linked an article speaking on it. You are still ignoring that and acting like the airport issue being brought up has no factual basis. Why won't you address this information?....I suspect point #1 is why.

Nah this EWR stuff is different. It is probably the most unsafe situation in the NAS, simply due to staffing and equipment issues in a high level facility

I’ve heard they essentially combined to 2-3 scopes out of 9.. they simply don’t have the people to work it, and combined with equipment and frequency issues.

These dudes gotta be working 2+ hour stints with limited breaks

I don't work for the ATC Union, neither do you. There is an ATC in here (@jaydawg08). I trust his thoughts and opinions on these issues as that is his world.

I said air is the safest form of transpo and planes will continue to land safely at Newark and surrounding airports. I also said the commentator was using fear to get views, similar to how the "news" had you fearing another attack after 9/11 and the London rail bombings.

It appears they've been chronically understaffed for years and through various administration's. Sounds like the same is true of the industry in general.

But again, 1000-1200 commercial flights landed yesterday without incident.
