Yup. The buck stops there. Arrested. We all know the criminal justice system fairly hands out punishments.

CBreezy, you're smart enough to know that you're anecdote is not representative of what happens when someone falls into the gears of the criminal justice system in the good 'ol US of A. The statistics speak volumes in the other direction.

I really don't care who he is, either. Do you?
You should care. We all should care. When KCM goes away it will be on the hands of this southwest FO. The genius that he is. Responsible go ownership. HA!

I'm merely pointing out that "getting arrested" is no guarantee that justice will be done.

Now that's pretty self-righteous!

You have brought up a number of good discussion points. However, attempting to shut this thread down by brow beating and belittling anyone who even wants to discuss the matter is the height of self-righteous indulgence. But please, keep telling us we can't/shouldn't talk about...whatever we want.

OrionDriver - meet JohnBurke.
JohnBurke.....well just keep up the entertainment value.

As for the being arrested part and justice.
It is just the tip of the iceberg obviously for the entire path towards resolution. There is MUCH more to be addressed along the way.
This incident might not be the final nail in the coffin of KCM, but for those looking to shut the program down, they are certainly being handed ammunition.

Who's looking to shut it down? Anybody in a position of relevance?

The Federal Aviation Agency United States Marine Corps! Now that's a scary thought!

Maybe the comma was misplaced?
