In the air force? Are you kidding?
Good point. I had forgotten about that angle.

Air Force Examines Gay Affair Report in Crash Death
BY LOUIS SAHAGUN AND MELISSA HEALY
MAY 3, 1997

TUCSON — The Air Force said Friday it was looking into whether Capt. Craig Button dropped his A-10 attack jet out of formation over Arizona, flew it to Colorado and slammed it into a mountain because of allegations that a gay ex-lover was about to reveal their affair.

“That’s the frustration,” said a senior military officer close to the investigation. “This remains a mystery to us. We’re focusing on how this happened, as well as why this happened. This is certainly not a normal situation for a highly trained pilot.”

Uuhhh, how about the military is having to rely on a largely MENTALLY ILL populace to staff the ranks? How hard is that to figure out?


Don't be the darkness.

America will perish while those who should be standing guard are satisfying their lusts.

Well, the guy was brandishing fire arms.

In the old days the cop would've yelled out "Freeze!!!"

That's a bold assertion. Point out where you think I lied.

The last SGLI briefing I sat in 6 years ago, the speaker told us DoD had paid out for every suicide and saying they would not was just a myth. I bet they pay out, but if they don’t, no loss. Now if he had a wife and kids, well that sucks.
