Two days in we know not a damn thing about what happened.

The new America, where citizens do not have the right to know what is going on.

Why should we have expectations of knowing what isn't knowable unless one was in the cockpit with the fighter pilot?
He could have had a fainting spell or heart attack. How can we expect to know for sure about something like that?

People are too fucking nosey, and when they're not immediately satisfied, they come up with conspiracy theories.

At least 100 people know who was in the wrong place, but I am not allowed to know.

This is not OK.
 
The promotion of ignorance that we have today shows very well how deeply into this Dark Age we are.

That so many are fine with this, they are actually that shit quality, does as well.

It's not OK to you, Hawk.
I have no idea what happened, nor have I any idea why I need to know.
They crashed a couple of antique airplanes--end of story as far as I'm concerned.
 
Teaching the masses that they should wait a very long time for information that they have the right to know is abuse, and it is the road to at some point we will not get it at all.

Wake the fuck up people.....

Nope. other than I don't personally believe that anybody is hiding anything about the crash that the general public needs to know.

Fuck "needs"....I have the right to know.....easily found information is not being transmitted to me because power wants me ignorant for some reason.

This is not OK.

I would be concerned about knowing about something that might impact my life, not something that merely piqued my curiosity.
You see it differently. That's fine.

According to the Elites my need to know is almost exactly as it was for the American slaves of old.

They show this constantly with how often they lie to us, and prevent us from knowing the truth.

Not having it.

The information embargo here is another demonstration that the Elite Class works for UTOPIA, not us.

Elites are elites for a reason.
Joe Sixpack is Joe Sixpack for a reason.

No elite person wants to be Joe Sixpack.
Joe Sixpack is incapable of becoming elite.
For better or worse, that's how this world will always work.

Man, you sure are out of date.

This explains a lot.
 
My days of being a victim are long over....if I have something to say then I say it.

If you dont like it then tough.
 
I heard someone famous (cant remember who) say "I dont really think it is my business what people think of me" as she was explaining why she does not care, why the haters dont bother her.

Douglas Murray is much the same with "I dont know who these people are, why would I care what they claim to think? (paraphrase?)" as he was explaining why the haters are irrelevant.

According to those who've actually flown the P-63, say that's not necessarily the case.

Now, frankly, I have a difficult time with the idea that a person can't see a B-17 in his flight path, but I'm also not so full of myself that I would doubt the word of someone who's actually flown one of the planes that hit it...

Yeah. It's a bizarre accident that could have been avoided.

It appears the P-63 pilot lost situational awareness. My guess is that he was more focused on looking for "Dash One", the other fighter he was following, than other aircraft in the pattern.

IMO, faster aircraft should have been 500 feet higher or lower in the pattern than slower ones.

I attended one that ended in tragedy that did kill some innocent people on the ground- when I was a kid.

I never attended another!

Air shows have a very long history of deadly tragedies!

So do NASCAR races, rodeos and football games.

As Jim Morrison once stated, "No one here gets out alive". While the safety of observers should be a priority, I do not support protecting people from themselves.

I used to drag race cars myself- in a straight line. But, I had a friend that drove with the Outlaws in Oval Track, and he was beheaded in an accident. I never was interested in NASCAR or oval track racing ever again. But I still go to the NHRA drags. I do not have a race car anymore- so I don't compete anymore.

I am really not a thrill seeker type. Others may do whatever they like. But, if you are risking your life racing motorcycles at 150 MPH or something like that, I'll pass- I have better things to do than watch people risk their lives and possibly die! I hate dangerous sports as much as dangerous drugs! And I hate stupidity like the Jackass Series SHIT!
