Rescue crews continued Sunday searching for bodies of two
pilots presumed dead after their small planes collided and crashed into the Everglades. Authorities were trying to determine if there were more people involved in the Saturday afternoon crash. http://www.miamiherald.com/news/brea...ry/337460.html |

You know, your usual rant - blame the accident on the FAA having gone into the toilet because of political correctness that has lead to blacks and women running the show now. Cripes, it's been more than 24 hours since it happened. What are you waiting for? It can't be that you want actual facts since that never has gotten in your way in the past. |

Bigotry at its essence is a problem of the heart, and we cannot change people's hearts by passing more laws and regulations. It is the federal government that MOST divides us by race, class, religion, and gender. Through its taxes, restrictive regulations, corporate subsidies, racial set-asides, and welfare programs, government plays far too large a role in determining who succeeds and who fails. Government "benevolence" crowds out genuine goodwill by institutionalizing group thinking, thus making each group suspicious that others are receiving more of the government loot. This leads to resentment and hostility among us. Racism is simply an ugly form of collectivism, the mindset that views humans strictly as members of groups rather than as individuals. Racists believe that all individuals who share superficial physical characteristics are alike: as collectivists, racists think only in terms of groups. By encouraging Americans to adopt a group mentality, the advocates of so-called "diversity" actually perpetuate racism. The true antidote to racism is liberty. Liberty means having a limited, constitutional government devoted to the protection of individual rights rather than group claims. Liberty means free-market capitalism, which rewards individual achievement and competence - not skin color, gender, or ethnicity. In a free society, every citizen gains a sense of himself as an individual, rather than developing a group or victim mentality. This leads to a sense of individual responsibility and personal pride, making skin color irrelevant. Racism will endure until we stop thinking in terms of groups and begin thinking in terms of individual liberty. The emperor has no clothes |

There is no proof this accident had anything to do with the FAA or the FAILED Aviation Administration filling their ranks with women and minority's. Lack of proof of cause doesn't inhibit your racist/sexist rantings, so why stop here? However, as a reminder, you can check out this link. Click the Department of Transportation(Ranked near the bottom also) and look at the 2007 FAA scores. Pathetic? Sad? For an organization tasked with millions of lives each day YES very sad. The FAA IS in the toilet. The data proves it. Is it the exclusive fault of minority and women FAA management? http://bestplacestowork.org/BPTW/rankings/ Department of Homeland Security ranks lower than DOT. I suspect that the FAMs are even lower than that. Do you think that's because they're overrun by PC black female incompetents? Hardly. All the rankings prove is that their workers are unhappy campers. That's a fact. Your expanation for this finding is not factual but an opinion based on supposition from a racist/sexist bigot. The rankings are meaningless to your opinion unless you can provide factual documentation that the ratings were consistently high until there was a significant decline after the first female Administrator took office. Got any facts to prove that? 1979 would be an interesting baseline year for to start with, going year-to-year to the present. Even if that did happen, logic tells us that correlation does not constitute proof of cause. Some old-line bureaucrats at FAA (as exemplified by Langhorne Bond) were extremely unhappy when FAA started using pro-active, non-punitive approaches to improving safety such as ASRS. The only way they knew to regulate safety was to violate pilots. They resented what they perceived as "PC pampering" encroaching on their power and regulatory role. Those types still are there, doubtlessly contributing to the lower scores. FAA also has had to do more with less, a sure recipe for worker dissatisfaction. And of course, the ongoing labor war with controllers guarantees lower satisfaction ratings. Well, BEFORE women and "Kissing the Black ASS" and mushrooming civil rights empires and diversity empire waste seized control of the once proud Failed Aviation Administration, the FAA was one of the most respected and top Government employers in Federal Government service Got facts? You guys hammer me continuously because I violate politically correct protocol Nope. Excessive PC in the workplace exists and can produce equally unfair results. We hammer you because you ignore Occam's Razor - you don't need a weak, convoluted bigot's theory to explain what can easily be explained by other very common, very obvious causes. Conspiracy theorists on accidents and 9/11 get the same treatment here for the same reasons. but when it comes to facts and faults you have no answer. I just provided FACTS the FAA is in the toilet. In the opinion of its workers, who aren't exactly neutral given current conditions. The FAA workforce tells us that in the above and below link. You tell me why it ranked so low or is it easier to call me a goober and racist and obfuscate reality? You're a racist goober because it's far easier to explain it through a number of conditions and events that have nothing to do with race or gender. Maybe the FAA mess is due to TERRIBLE decisions within the FAA to place UNQUALIFIED women and minorities into FAA management who have no decent aviation qualifications? Using the low bar you have set for opinion masquerading as fact, maybe it's global warming. There's a really good correlation to be found there. Maybe it's El Nino or sunspots or video games. I am listening for your FACTS and rebuttal. We're waiting for your factual proof of your opinion that workpace morale is principally (or even significantly) the direct result of PC actions. (Don't blame it on Bush that is a cop out). Some would note that many of FAA's problems that are causing decline in morale go back decades - which means that they started long before your putative timeline. However, one of your colleagues disagrees on Bush's role - see below. Here is another link to a blog written by FAA controllers. You tell me. Am I wrong? http://themainbang.typepad.com/ I saw a lot of legitimate complaining about bad management and policies - none of which requires your sexist/racist "explanation". I saw criticism of Blakey but it was the same kind of comments that are leveled at top brass regardless of race or gender. What I didn't see was anyone attributing these problems to blacks and women as a class because of PC. BTW, at least one poster disagrees with you: "Let's see...the Bush Administration completely destroyed our nation's national airspace system" - ya think that might be contributing to dissatisfaction at FAA? STOP Kissing the Black ASS Stop expecting us to kiss yours when you're a bigot pretending that you have facts on your side. A nation that once prided itself on a sense of rugged individualism has become uncomfortably obsessed with racial group identities. And here you reveal your real motives. The collectivist mindset is at the heart of racism. Government as an institution is particularly ill-suited to combat bigotry. Bigotry at its essence is a problem of the heart, and we cannot change people's hearts by passing more laws and regulations. We can't change the hearts of robbers, rapists and murderers either. What we can do is pass laws and regulations that make such behavior illegal. Ditto for racism and sexism and any other unacceptable behavior. It is the federal government that MOST divides us by race, class, religion, and gender. And of course, your racist/sexist rants do nothing to divide and polarize. Racism is simply an ugly form of collectivism, the mindset that views humans strictly as members of groups rather than as individuals. The fact that you have that mindset is exactly what makes you a racist and sexist.. Racists believe that all individuals who share superficial physical characteristics are alike: as collectivists, racists think only in terms of groups. More pot - kettle. By encouraging Americans to adopt a group mentality, the advocates of so-called "diversity" actually perpetuate racism. So the only thing stopping you from abandoning your white male group identity, moving to the ghetto, working as a janitor for a black female boss, and having your sister marry a lesbian is the evil government's diversity programs? Wow, what a guy! The true antidote to racism is liberty. Liberty means having a limited, constitutional government devoted to the protection of individual rights rather than group claims. Individual rights aren't the source of the problem. The problem is *group claims* (most notably, white males) of racial and sexual superiority over other groups (non-whites, women, etc.) that creates the need to protect minorities against group-think abuses by majorities. Liberty means free-market capitalism, which rewards individual achievement and competence - not skin color, gender, or ethnicity. But prejudice against skin color, gender and ethnicity routinely inhibits individuals' ability to attain fair rewards for achievement and competence. Just because some attempts to establish a fair balance go too far in the other direction does not invalidate the concept of trying to enforce a level playing field. In a free society, every citizen gains a sense of himself as an individual, rather than developing a group or victim mentality. This leads to a sense of individual responsibility and personal pride, making skin color irrelevant. No, that only happens in a utopian society. History shows that the ugly reality is different and must be counterbalanced, even if the results cannot ever be perfect. |
