I know, it's a miracle.

I’m upset:

Play Xbox? Nah.

Killing 150 will help.

A muzzie is allowed to work on aircraft navigational systems?

How many of these savages are also A&P mechanics?

I don’t fly commercial; if I can’t drive somewhere in two days, I don’t go. The fate of innocent passengers is in the hands of these murderous fanatics.

And we’re supposed to turn in our guns.

Yup, stalled union negotiations. That’s his story and he’s sticking to it.

Like the Texas shooter, the obvious risk was ignored, since he was an Asset In Waiting:

He was due to some day assist in the Freedom Destruction Process and so was ignored.

Like exporting thousands of military rifles to Mexican Narcos:

SIMILAR.

I wonder how many Muzzies with FIVE NAMES are guarding the Capitol Building?

How many men like him are now guarding Sidwell Friends?

Oh but when it’s OUR necks on the line, yes, rest assured you will find them on duty, o-plenty.

A miracle in more ways than one, detecting a fault in an air data system must have air speed, which means during takeoff. This pilot was very alert.

Good for the aircraft pilot and engineering that allowed this fault to be found.

I'm so surprised.

Charge him with 150 accounts of attempted murder and execute him.
