As the deafening F-35s circle expensively over my house on this otherwise beautiful Sunday in May, I'm asking myself what, from a practical standpoint, can we do to get rid of them - lock, stock and BTV? Satirical essays and reams of stats detailing reasons for restriction are all very well, but don't seem to be making much of a difference. Or...are they? If so, I'd like to know more. Meanwhile, the high-decibel barrage is affecting public health -- inflicting hearing loss, emotional stress and quality of life on all humans and animals with the misfortune to be oiurside and in their flight path.
Some call their thunder "the sound of freedom." I'd question their definition of what it means to be free. Enough to eat, a decent place to live, a basic education, and affordable health care should come before funding and flying this airborne curse.
Here they come again. And again, here's my question. What -- from a practical standpoint -- can we do?
