Huh? You don’t think massive civil unrest this summer will effect air travel?

Sure, don’t keep up to date on current events. As they say, “ignorance is bliss”.

Massive civil unrest? Yes.

A little civil unrest most likely being exacerbated by the media? Probably not.

This will blow over in another week or so.

OK, let’s check back in a week. You have clearly turned off your TV.

Let's do. And yes I have turned off my TV...I have zero desire to waste mental bandwidth meddling in that garbage.

Fortunately you get to live in a bubble, but millions of Americans don’t have that luxury right now. Last night I got to watch National Guard vehicles driving down my road and smoke rise above my city as fires burned at local business.

Sucks to be you. I got to watch deer running down my dead end dirt road as I look out over hundreds of acres of rolling hills and woodlands.

I guess perspective skews one's thinking.

Hahaha, that's AWESOME!

It's not a bubble, it's a choice and you may want to exercise it. It's only getting worse and has been and will be again when we eventually get another Democrat as President.

This is not to say that our current twitter fanatic has brought us together but the previous one did a bunch to bring our division to a boil instead of just letting it be. Of course if you believe that we can ever exist equally then I understand your desire to live in the inner city.

Best of luck, especially if you're a typical white male, "privileged", pilot.

It’s just this week’s story from the media. Every week they want you to be losing your mind, and for some reason, picking a side (right or left), over some issue.

like almost every issue they cover, in 14 days it will be a distant memory. And like every issue they cover, they blow it out of proportion.

no one is canceling their July vacation over this lol. The only thing that worries me is if these stupid gatherings are going to cause another spike in the virus and the ramifications that might have on Spirit.

This.

Nludy is sitting in the middle of some of it and lost SA. We live in a pop tart, instant gratification, YOLO world. Remember the guy tracked down and shot in Georgia a few weeks ago? Neither do most of the morons burning down their neighborhoods.

We’ll get out first hurricane of the season, some a**hole will sow political discord or professional sports will start back up and the discussions and media coverage will change.
