Right. So a plane full of Trump supporting idiots that were refusing flight crew instructions... Good on the CA, and the article even said AA supported the pilot. After the truly pathetic antics of the other day, I think a lot of support Trump thought he had has evaporated.

LOL. “Plane full of patriots...” The mental gymnastics are truly impressive.

Well from what I’ve heard, the support for MN Governor Walz and Minneapolis Mayor Frey is doing just fine. Even after this: https://www.startribune.com/minneapolis-st-paul-buildings-are-damaged-looted-after-george-floyd-protests-riots/569930671/

The support for for BLM is so strong you can even wear pins at a certain airline, even after this: https://sports.yahoo.com/rioters-destroy-bar-black-minneapolis-191303655.html

The protesters who broke through security at the Capital are a bunch of idiots, I hope those sweet pictures were worth it, and Trump should be embarrassed by encouraging these individuals.

The total hypocrisy is what I have a problem with. left leaning protesters the likes of BLM and Antifa burned and looted multiple cities, and we heard nothing but excuses from the media. It was complete anarchy that lasted for Months.

I’ve learned a valuable lesson from all of this though. You can loot and burn whatever the hell building you want to the ground in a protest, just make sure it’s a normal civilian owned business, then nobody cares. The error these D.C. protesters made was looting the house of politicians, big mistake.

I can’t argue that. It’s been a weird 12 months.

I think you’re missing a big piece here: protesting racial injustice, versus trying to murder the Vice President and take 1/3 of our government hostage because you can’t accept the fact that the majority of the country doesn’t agree with you. I’m not saying people should destroy property, but I am saying that some frustrations are very real and legitimate and others are not. I am interested though, as you’re criticizing not only his delivery but also his message: should they have been allowed to continue to disturb the rest of the passengers and defy crew instructions just to keep “half the country” from boycotting AA?


Anyway, bankruptcy. I find it funny that many of you here seem like you have a better grasp on the finances at airlines than people writing articles like this:

The BLM people who peacefully marched were protesting. Those who went on a rampage and damaged and destroyed property with antifa were rioters. A few right wing nut jobs storm the capital and they’re terrorist. Left wing nut jobs burn down businesses, take over entire sections of a city, and force the evacuation of state and municipal buildings and they’re fighting an injustice. The people who rioted and looted this summer and those who rioted at the capital should all be punished to the full extent of the law.

Saying that they were there to murder the VP and take hostages is really a stretch. I’ve read reports that say that hostage taking could have possibly been a motive, but nothing remotely definitive. They were just a mob who wanted to disrupt the government in an attempt to stop the electoral votes from becoming official....... You know..... morons.
