The USS Vincennes shot down an Iranian airliner in July 1988 — allegedly by mistake.
So it’s not as if the U.S. Navy shooting down a passenger jet is an outlandish possibility.

What we were missing then—and still are missing—is open public discussion—including permitting naval personnel in the area to talk about what they knew and what they saw.
I don’t know what is possible on a navy ship if Murphy’s Law kicks in—but in my long life I have learned that “impossible” is a word you never want to use.

(Claiming that laws and regs that limit “hate speech” stop freedom of speech is “hate speech”.)
