Canadian made a funny.

It was weird though I offered my prayers but it didnt save I edited it to reflect this.

I'm not an insensitive prick, but indeed, when people decide to do this they should be held accountable for the harm they caused. People have to be smarter than this as if they aren't people lose their lives following idiots.

New holiday?

Sinko de Mayo?

Man, at least he can sleep at night knowing he tried. I am in between sorrow and anger. Who would enter waters with such a ship of great height without understanding their nautical environment?

 

[TroglocratsRdumb]

A thousand good jokes

Naval training ship?

Were they trying to land an invasion force of illegal aliens?

So emotionally Canadian.

With all due respect.

This is basically like the Mexican Navy 9/11. Worst day in the history of the Mexican Navy.

What in the ever lovin' hell!?!?!

We HAVE to be living in a simulation.

See post #2 for Mexican context.



I can't even.

welp!

 

[Yarddog]

haha did they pull this out after 200 years? they can't google, height of brooklyn bridge so they could clear it?
why are they sailing around florida, up the coast to get to NYC is the question

I am sure those cannon balls will be effective against our destroyers

they were light a few gold doubloons and sitting too high in the water. a common mistake!

This is how you pass a tall ship under the Brooklyn Bridge:

On my Navy LHA, we had to have the shipyard rework the hinge so we could fold down our mast to go under a bridge and dock in New Orleans back in 1994.

They were there to unfurl the sails. This is tragic on so many levels.

 

[westwall]

YOu know we have one like that as well, right?

Yeah, it used to be a German ship. We got it after the war.

 

[Yarddog]

I still give em props! the mariachi band kept playing the entire time!

 

[Admiral Rockwell Tory]

It was being towed backwards by a tugboat.

No, it was going backwards due to the tides. It broke loose according to other posts in this thread.

Let's think about this deeper though, this is a military ship. Presumably controlled by a navy officer.

I would hope the Canadian military wouldn;t be so careless and unprofessional. If the Mexican navy is tasked with defending their coast, they better make sure they choose the right people with the right training because this leaves a bad mark on those in Mexico who ARE competent.

Admittedly the movie Mister Roberts is my reference point for all things Navy:

point??

2 people killed, at least 20 others injured after Mexican Navy ship crashes into Brooklyn Bridge

Horrified onlookers watched helplessly as the massive ship barreled toward, then smashed into the 142-year-old bridge, the towering mast snapping.

Not a pirate ship.

We may still be living in a simulation though.

You're taking this all too seriously
