GotNews ^ | 5-13-2015 | Chuck C. Johnson

Gotnews.com has independently identified the engineer at the center of the Amtrak crash that has killed at least seven.

Brandon Bostian is the 32-year-old gay man who lawyered up after a deadly derailment in Philadelphia. The train was reportedly going twice the speed limit.

ABC 6 previously reported that “Brandon Boshan,” not Brandon Bostian, was to blame for the deadly crash. (They have since taken down the link.)

Bostian is a gay activist who previously worked at Target as a cashier before joining Amtrak, according to his LinkedIn.

What if he crashed it intentionally, as a form of “protest”?

I think it’s two years. A coworker of mine’s brother is an Amtrak employee. I’m just outside Philly.

The news that he might be gay may or may not be a big deal. The news that his previous job was a cashier at Target is.

I except a statement from Amtrak soon:

“Just like Target cash registers, all of our trains use computer controls and displays. In fact, both systems have “Intel Inside”. They are basically the same. He was more than qualified. Although it would be nice if the cash registers still had that lever thingy on the side - replicates the emergency brake we have.”

If a straight guy was sexting his girlfriend, would you blame his being straight as the reason?

Do we know this or is it just speculation?

Check google news and you will get hits from reliable sources that he worked at Target

By the way, this has the makings of a great thread. It’s bitopical! Or is that transtopical? Queerest thing I’ve seen all day.

Nothing to do with the identity of the train driver, but when I heard it was going 100+ mph, twice the limit for that stretch of track, it reminded me of the German pilot who deliberately downed the airliner in the French Alps a few weeks back.

I think it's informed speculation based on pure, dispassionate logic and the overwhelming evidence. The regime has a program of muzzie outreach and similar schemes to advance the homosexual agenda. That much is evident by how hussein has weakened the military by allowing sodomites to enter in record numbers. QED it's not a stretch to assert that Brandon Bostian was advanced to his position. The philosophy of Bostian dovetails with that of the left. In other words, he's one of them so it's self-evident that the 'RATs want his type to rise.

There are photos of him in the latest Daily Mail report, and he is named.

Nothing about his being gay, but he certainly looks that way.

It says the train was going 106 MPH and then he threw on the full power emergency brake. Sure sounds like he hadn’t been paying attention.

“Local TV station KCBS reported that a teenager claimed to have received a text message from the Metrolink engineer a minute before the collision.”

People who make contradicting nature a lifestyle are (tautologically) prone to errors in judgment, fwiw.

How does the Daily Mail do it? Their coverage of an American story has everything but the kitchen sink. They're amazing.
