Another emotional tantrum. Due process is only for a criminal proceeding. There is no due process in the crash investigation process. How can you say I'm willing to give up due process when there is none in crash investigations?

I've never once said I hate ALPA. Not once. It's this type of hyperventilating that makes you look incapable of debate. Call someone a hater, and maybe you can get people to ignore everything the person said. It's an old and weak tactic. I could have said you hate freedom of speech and the publics right to know what their tax dollars are paying for...but then I'd sound as silly as you.
It doesn't matter what I see. The law allows it and the chairwoman sees her first duty as informing the American people. Write your congressman and pass new laws if you don't like it...that's also your right.
Unfortunately, that's been used as "code words" for delaying the release of known information until the public no longer remembers the accident. Again, the chairwoman disagrees with you and ALPA.
How do you know there wasn't? If the crew reported it, she's releasing it...immediately upon gathering the data. That's her pattern. You and the other over emotionals at ALPA need to get with the program and understand that things change. ALPA's just shocked that she doesn't give a crap what ALPA thinks.
Again, you don't know what your talking about. Incomplete details of murder investigations are released to the public all the time in the hope of engaging the public to help catch the bad guy.
Seriously man, your points are some of the silliest I've read in a while. You don't understand the NTSB's mandate, you don't understand the law, and you don't understand even basic politics.

Carl, you only have two sides. Carl the bully and Carl the victim. You come on here after I say I agree with something someone said and you just tell me I'm wrong. No proof - no evidence just Carl saying wrong wrong wrong. You are the tantrum king here. Due Process is applicable government agencies and non-legal hearings. I linked a publication from my law school classes. Take a look at it. You might be surprised to find out that case law evolves unlike you. I said I didn't like some of the ways the NTSB was putting data out and you went all "whiny ALPA wah wah wah silly pilot wah wah wah you don't understand how the government works, I'm big mean Carl, let me get my boyfriend Purple to stank on you." You can't bully your way through life but I guess at this stage you already have. You can't even have a simple conversation without jumping off the deep end with the hyperbole. I am allowed my opinion. You can not tell me I'm wrong just because you decree it so. You want smaller words that are more concise that you can comprehend?
I don't like the NTSB Tweeting crash data. Go sh18 on someone else. I'm not changing my opinion because the bully came out and said he's smarter and older. I said I want the safety information so we can learn and you ignored that and every other thing I said in agreeing with the investigation. Either learn to converse like a man or go back under your cranky bridge. This act where you have to be right and no one else can discuss things because you are right all the time is why this thread has declined to nothing but ALPA bashing. Can't even have a simple discussion about whether real-time or near real-time crash information is good or bad. I supposse when they ask for cameras in the cockpit again because of this crash that will be okay too, in the interest of safety and your crush on the NTSB? Looking for a post-airline job perhaps? You needn't bother with a response because we all know you'll just attack the messenger because you don't know any other way and then you'll bash ALPA and then you'll say how great the DPA is and that they would have issued a wonderful statement endorsing the NTSB and their fresh way of telling the world what happened. Even it it doesn't...
