Oh no…
Anyway
I work in the same building complex as U.S. Bank MN headquarters. Their employees have to drive past our building to get to theirs. Idk what's going on in that work environment but those employees are angry and constantly almost run us over in the crosswalk and parking garage. Everyone in our building hates them.
Shit, rich people are dying? We better get around to fixing this whole air travel issue asap!
Seriously, it seems like plane crashes are replacing school shootings as the American tragedy-de-jour
I'll be honest, I was just thinking about the lack of school shooting news. Is it just getting buried or do those kind of assholes just feel too "seen" by this administration to take it out on kids or something?
Wiki has us at 58 mass shootings so far this year. So about usual. Typically the school ones spike before the school year ends and when it gets back in session.

Not school shootings and almost all of those are gang/drug/domestic related. Seriously the first and second one are gang activity.
People think mass shooting/school shooting is a random act of violence. No one thinks mass shooting when two drug dealers are shooting each other.
It's bad enough, but we don't need to drive false narratives.
You're right, I should have clarified that it was mass shootings I listed not school shootings. But I would still consider mass shootings involving gang members to count, as innocent civilians are regularly injured from this.
Yea innocent people do get injured, but that's a whole different set of issues to solve vs school shootings or mass shootings at random.
Your guess is as good as mine; I couldn’t speculate on the thoughts of mass murderers. The cynic in me says that shootings no longer represent compelling content to the average consumer, so it doesn’t get pushed as hard.
I haven’t looked up any actual statistics comparing recent mass shootings in the US, so I really can’t say.
musk is apparently replacing / trying to replace FAA system with some private spaceX system so good luck fixing that shit asap
Amazing none of those bailed him out. Huh. It’s almost like money doesn’t buy you everything.
Sorry to the souls on board that perished
Vice chairs don’t have souls
You insensitive jerks, a house cat died.
Is the plane ok?

Better arrest the plane for killing him.
Good, the people on the ground who were affected will probably be compensated for their loss.
Sorry for the innocent people on the plane. The guilty pay the price.
Hurray!!

What did he know?
Was it a Boeing?
