Fighter jet crashes in California desert
Pilot not yet found. Crash near enough to Father Crowley for seven people there to be injured.

The navy needs to take responsibility for allowing this situation to occur. The minute the noticed (many years ago) that people were flocking to Father Crowley Overlook to watch the jets fly down the canyon, the navy should have changed its routes. There are plenty of other canyons in the area that would work just fine and failing to do so was irresponsible. They created the problem and pilots often showed off to the crowds while flying down the canyon. This was entirely foreseeable and key people in key positions failed to take proper action in a timely manner. As a result seven people are badly injured and narrowly escaped death.

Well then the people of Trona and Ridgecrest are 100% aware of the possibility of earthquakes because of local faults. Should the government allow them to live there knowing maybe the next quake will be larger and kill people? Should they be allowed to buy cigarettes waiting for the next earthquake?
Same thing
