OT- DC commercial plane and Blackhawk collide

[Lincoln100]

I knew a guy in high school who ended up as a fighter pilot. He couldn’t have been 5’5” tall and I guarantee you there were dozens of girls I knew in high school and in college who could have kicked his ass. Piloting an aircraft isn’t dependent on testicles.

There's going to be some changes. There was an obvious miscommunication. That landing strip is way too busy and the air space is overcrowded. One thing that I think about is that the lives of the people on that flight need to hold more value. Compare what went on there with the precautions that are taken when Air Force One goes anywhere. There's nothing anywhere close to Air Force One when it is landing and rightfully so. Meanwhile, we've got helicopters flying across the front of a landing strip with three or four planes carrying American citizens closely lined up to land....

I watched Air Force One land with Bush on board years ago. It was somewhat surprising how little security there was then. I’m sure there’s more now including lots of helicopters and fighter escorts. It’s different risk assessment criteria.

It’s very simple. Put a 400$/ticket surcharge on people using DCA payable to the U.S. Treasury. It’s insane how cheap it is to fly across country. Our tickets in to DC we’re about $230 nonstop from Omaha. Too cheap.

So much for the free market republicans. TAX TAX TAX TARIFF TARIFF TARIFF

Nah, I’m a big believer in not censoring anyone nor condemning thought. Hence my stance. People that theorize aren’t losers. Even people that think the world is a giant illusion. They may be closer to the truth than you think

I find it ironic you feel that way when you called me a Nazi for expressing my opinions about insane people. The double standard is right there for everyone to see.

Free and FAIR markets.

okay. Then let them see it. Youre policing thought and calling others insane merely for having a theory you find obscene.

Maybe ask them why they think what they do. Maybe they saw something that made them question the event entirely. I doubt they’re clinically insane but rather skeptical of the world around them.

Dig into why they think that. I haven’t seen any video or theory that makes me think it’s all CGI but the event is sketchy AF. Maybe I’ll see something that makes me wonder.

Be careful condemning thought. It starts with CGI theory and always ends with jailing others for not thinking like the hive

I've wasted enough time trying to bring these dimwits back to reality on stuff like flat earth or other conspiracy theories. And I'm not talking social media. I'm talking face to face. Not anymore. Now they just get laughed at.

Always an excuse. I expect an excuse if spending doesn't actually go down as well. Same as last time. People blamed that socialism on covid. The excuse this time will be deportations. Clearly no one is serious about reducing budgets or they wouldn't let the debt ceiling be used against them. Nothing wrong with the automatic cuts. Every department, including defense, should be able to cut a small amount without any problems.

Your choice. But free thought is a blessing. And so is humbleness

By trying to censor people who express their opinions about opinions you like

 

[Mrs.Jeans15]

I’m sure all those excuses will make the families feel better.

This.

The Federal govt just killed a bunch of citizens.

People should be outraged.

I’m pointing out your censorship. If you like mental gymnastics go tumble around by yourself

You keep bringing up censorship. Who exactly is doing this so-called censorship?

 

[Bugeater]

A thread about a terrible disaster turns into the same. Why am I not surprised?

You and the other guy. You make up in your heads that saying the plane crash was fake is bad for the victims so they shouldn’t post stuff like that.

It’s thought policing which is a form of censorship. I shouldn’t have to explain this. But you’re concerned about winning a debate rather than acknowledging truth. Posts are here for anyone who is honest to decide.

FWIW. The tariffs are being used to pressure the affected countries to do more to try to shut down the drug trade. Gotta have leverage to get them to the table.

Did I even say anything about the victims families? I'm just pointing out stupid or insane people. That seems to really bother you for some reason. Which I find hilarious because you actually called me a Nazi. Which is even more funny being that I consider myself somewhat of a history buff.

Bottom line, I will continue to mock those people, despite your objections. Feel free to mock me in response.
