Evil flight attendant murders dog. Here’s to hoping the person responsible does the world a favor and dies soon.

I would love to know all of the facts. I am pretty dogs aren’t supposed to be in the passenger area of an airplane at all. It certainly makes no sense that if dog were allowed in the passenger area, it would have to be kept in the overhead compartment. I think normally pets travel in cages in the cargo hold and not in the passenger area. Just what killed the dog? Being put in the overhead compartment, while maybe a little scary and uncomfortable, would not seem to me to be fatal. Weirdness.

Much like when a duo of murderous cops terrorize, psychologically torture, and then murder an unarmed man, I don’t really care too much what other little tidbits the story entails.

Whatever.

Oh yeah that’s right. He moved his a little bit. Better shoot him just to be safe.

What the fuck is your problem?

I have a lot of problems. My toaster oven is missing, my neighbor’s daughter parks her car in front of my mailbox, and my utility bill was four dollars more expensive than it was last month. I don’t see what that has to do with how evil these flight attendants were, though.

I was just thinking that if they tried to force my dog into the overhead compartment I’d refuse to let them, but then I remembered that police have the right to beat United Airline customers nearly to death if passengers don’t comply with direct orders from flight attendants.

Knock it off.

That teacher has no business teaching anyone gun safety(if I understand gun safety enough). I could be mistaken, but I doubt it.

Why even shoehorn in this little bit of apologetics. You know full well (I hope) that this was absurd and incompetent.

Huh?

I didn’t keep the link, but from what I read, the dog was in an approved bag and all other rules were followed for the dog to be able to stay with the passenger, who was supposed to be allowed to keep the dog under her seat. The dog was also a puppy, less than a year old, and it probably just suffocated in the overhead compartment, which doesn’t get much air because it wasn’t designed to store living things.

If the dog was supposed to be allowed under the seat, why would they tell the passenger to put it in the overhead compartment? Just for the fun of it??? I don’t get it.

That teacher has no business teaching anyone gun safety(if I understand gun safety enough). I could be mistaken, but I doubt it. One of the rules of gun safety is that you keep your finger off the trigger unless you intend to fire. So unless the teacher actually intended to fire into the ceiling, he should not have had his finger on the trigger. Without his finger being on the trigger, the gun is going to go off.

What the hell was this teacher doing teaching them anything about guns? It’s a school not a shooting range and I doubt the subject he was supposed to officially be teaching them was on gun safety.

I would like know what the hell happened with this kid that got hit in the neck? Why did no one, not teachers, not other faculty, not other students, not cops, not even the kid himself notice he’d been hit and was bleeding? That makes no sense. How is it no one noticed the bullet fragment in his neck and blood on his shirt and at the very least tell him to go to the school nurse? Why didn’t he notice himself and go to the nurse or tell someone he needed help? I don’t get it.

Huh?

The world has lost a genius. R.I.P. Mr. Hawking. ☹️

Maybe the person making the crappy personnel decisions should be fired.

Ah.

I have to subscribe to read the full article? Fuck off, WSJ.

WSJ? Who is that? btw, I could not read the whole article, it said something about have to sign in or sign up and I am not going to do that.

Actually, that is how I first read it, but I quickly realized that wasn’t right.

I did an actual, real-life face palm.

but I did quickly realize that it was incorrect.

Well the left leaning bias is on full display here. I have no doubt if a major Republican politician claimed to be part Native American and didn’t look anything like a Native American, people in here would be saying take a DNA test or fess up.

I don’t know if people in here would be saying that but I’m pretty sure there would be plenty of mocking.

On the topic of bias and arguments, this article on “progressive hostility” looks compelling. I’ve only read a little of it but I’ve heard similar complaints from people I know.

When I disagree with a conservative friend or colleague on some political issue, I have no fear of speaking my mind. I talk, they listen, they respond, I talk some more, and at the end of it we get along just as we always have. But I’ve discovered that when a progressive friend says something with which I disagree or that I know to be incorrect, I’m hesitant to point it out.

truth.

Ah yes, only Conservatives are rational. Yay.

that is not what I said.

You quoted an article that said that, and proclaimed it “truth.”

I quoted part of the article and proclaimed it “truth”.

The part I quoted does not say that only Conservatives are rational.

Let’s look back:

When I disagree with a conservative friend or colleague on some political issue, I have no fear of speaking my mind. I talk, they listen, they respond, I talk some more, and at the end of it we get along just as we always have.

In short, Conservatives are rational.

But I’ve discovered that when a progressive friend says something with which I disagree or that I know to be incorrect, I’m hesitant to point it out.

Or; I won’t argue with progressives because I fear they are not rational.

interesting interpretation.

Seems like the only interpretation to me. How did you interpret it?

That some Liberals take disagreement more personally. That some Liberals are more offended by disagreement.

Yeah, whole bunch of snowflakes, amirite or amirite?

oh ffs.

Isn’t that basically what you said?

no.

Tell me how.

taking disagreement more personally and/or being more offended by disagreement does not = being a snowflake. At least not in my book.

In your book, what does being a snowflake mean?

I assumed by snowflake you meant someone who was wimpy and/or cowardly and/or weak and/or something like that, and that is not what I meant by any of my comments.

Alright. The prosecution rests.

For now.

Why do you see yourself as some sort of Prosecutor and me as some sort of Defendant?

Would you have preferred me to be part of the defense?

Why does there need be any defense, why does there need to be any sort of a trial?

A strong and fair court system is a prerequisite to a functioning democracy, like this web forum.

yeah right
