The NY Times will stop at nothing and spare no expense to exonerate the conductor.... for one reason. Because he is gay.

Now he’ll say he was running from something to protect the passengers. Just watch.

Doesn’t explain why the train accelerated to 106 mph right before the curve, does it?

The way they talk about the Engineer on CNN you would think they want him to run for President..hey he might even have a chance of winning..CNN and other media loons have already turned him into a hero..of course if he were a Tea Party member the headline would be “Tea Party Extremist Kills 8 in Train Derailment”
To: Sir Napsalot
It most certainly does not. If the “projectile” had hit the “engineer” would he have been capable while going into shock...of accidently mishandling the throttle? Id think he would have released his grip on the throttle.

The train was going over twice the speed the curve in that part of the track was designed to handle. It was going to derail regardless if something hit the train first. Very true, but the low information readership of the Slimes will eat it up. We can't have people focusing on the fact that the engineer is gay/mentally unbalanced.

This alleged story could backfire on them. If the engineer allegedly reported the alleged impact, we know said impact did not incapacitate him.

Let’s see. If you or I were doing 150 in a 70 mph zone and a rock kicked up into the windshield, who would take the blame?
