Whoever El Peso is, he clearly has aggression issues. His posts do nothing more than attack and insult.

I've been asked by many outsiders over the years, as I'm sure all of you have, is "______ insert US airline" safe....my response is always the same. Any US flagged carrier is extremely safe in my opinion, more so than any other countries. When there are tens of thousands of flights per day and every passenger is an independent journalist, there are going to be issues that come to light that do not look good. The safety record speaks for itself. That being said, is there room for improvement? Absolutely. Are airlines beginning to cut safety corners in the name of the almighty dollar and something that should be talked about? In my opinion, yes.
