Sen. Schumer is proposing legislation that mandates the FAA report each and every aircraft bird strike. Notes the AP piece, “Schumer said Wednesday the problem can’t be properly addressed until it’s understood.”

Maybe Sen. Shumer should have tried to understand the bird-strike problem before earmarking funds for non-lethal bird control. Note from the link that Sen. Schumer doesn’t mention the threat to people, only the goose threat to the environment.
