Breaking News. Plane crash in DC. Collided with either helicopter or drone over Potomac.

[odanny]

It is going to be difficult to find all of these victims of the crash, the current is not only very strong in the Potomac but it is changing directions every 12 hours, so searching one area means you might have to go back and search that area again. Plus visibility is very bad.

If minorities aren’t inferior, then you wouldn’t have to lower standards.

You lower standards for minorities because you want equal results

Such as New Haven Conn

White firefighters had to go all the way to the Supreme Court to get promotions they earned by passing an exam that every black firefighter failed

This is not an absolute choice between black and white that libs such as you want it to be

Meaning either black people are genetically equal to whites or they arent

There are cultural factors involved that hold minorities back that you want to ignore

 

[Marener]

You lower standards for minorities because you want equal results

Nah. You don’t have to lower standards for minorities. That’s your belief, not mine.

All you have to do is stop people from acting on their belief that minorities are inferior. That’s the cultural belief we should discard.

 

[OldFlame]

And none of the facts thus far point to DEI being a factor in any way, shape or form

It was just a cheap political move to rile up the rubes by mentioning minorities

I'm not sure what point you're trying to make, that if DEI isn't involved in every accident or incident that goes wrong, then it's a perfectly sound practice to continue?

This isn’t a thread about DEI, it’s a thread about an air accident

People automatically making it about minority hires says more about them than anything else

 

[Mac-7]

You don’t have to lower standards for minorities.

So you say, but you did in the case of firefighters in New Haven, Conn

You've made it more about DEI than any other poster on here, it's all you've commented on for the entire thread. You've accused people of bringing it up who didn't, you've made a ton of posts about Trump's comments as well. If you want to talk about the air accident, you have a poor way of showing it since you haven't commented on it hardly at all.

I’m not the one who brought up the subject

As soon as Trump made his comments in TV, people on here began defending the obviously false and inappropriate comment

What was so inappropriate about his comment?

 

[OldFlame]

Why would anyone need to 'defend' anything if it wasn't brought up in the first place?

Let alone that it was Trump's comment, not anyone else's.

 

[braalian]

What was so inappropriate about his comment?

He was speculating wildly without evidence on an incident where none of the facts are clear. And he did so for nakedly political reasons

Unpresidential

I’m not digging through hundreds of posts to see who first brought it up

But as soon as Trump made his public comment, his supporters here started doing mental gymnastics to back him up

 

[ChristisKing]

The helicoper hit the side of the plane?

I'm confused are we talking about aerodynamics here?

I didn’t know that CNN and MSN were reporting that a helicopter and plane crashed at Reagan HOURS before the actual event

Me neither but you got a broken link just so you know.

'As soon as it was brought up on here'... exactly.

And you're welcome to your opinion regarding his comments, no one else is obligated to agree with them.

But I think your opinion is well known by now since you've made dozens of comments on it already, so maybe move on to something different.

 

[ChristisKing]

I guess that it wasn't DEI then.

I have not blamed DEI

My position is lets wait and see

Same here.

Now it's coming out. The Blackhawk was not where it belonged. The pilot was flying it at an altitude that was reserved for commercial flights.
This was pilot error. This was a DEI pilot.
A man who identified as a woman. A person who got the job not based on merit but based on political correctness.

Jo

Wait
What
The pilot is a man claiming woman?
In the picture of the man with the baby. He does not look happy. His eyes are depressed . I think something ends up about him

In the video the helicopter head almost 2 miles maneuver away. Instead it zoomed in on the plane.
