Amtrak engineer a homosexual and therefore protected by the American media?
Coach is Right ^ | 5/17/15 | Suzanne Eovaldi

Posted on 05/17/2015 8:30:28 AM PDT by Oldpuppymax

The engineer of the death train was a homosexual and a gay activist who “liked several LGBTI pages on Facebook,” a gay news site. “The engineer who was involved in Tuesday night’s Amtrak train crash is Brandon Bostian,” says gaystarnews.com. Interesting now is how the media are equivocating and blaming those old meanies, the Republicans. One site commenter to the outing of this 32 year old engineer says, “the fact is a gay activist is untouchable in the main stream media. Once his sexual preference came out, the story started changing and the blame will go towards needing more money in the transportation industry. We shall never know the truth because the media is a failure!”

Incredible is the comment of another poster on the gay site who says Amtrak received a whopping $1.3 BILLION dollars in the 2009 stimulus fund give-away of our taxpayer dollars. This huge amount is ON TOP of the one BILLION dollar subsidy it receives every year. How come Amtrak in 2012 had the money to launch an expensive gay PRIDE advertising campaign, but somehow it could not have found the money for the smart technology the liberal media fools now are saying the white elephant needs?

Consider the following advertisement campaign Amtrak ran on its website. “This summer Amtrak Ride With Pride hosted a contest to send four lucky winners on a getaway PRIDE week-end via the train. Winners headed to Chicago, New York, San Francisco, New Orleans for a fun-filled week-end. Couples enjoyed the comfortable seats, had cocktails in the Lounge car, and arrived at the Amtrak stations refreshed and ready to enjoy the festivities.” A happy color photo of Aaron and Marc provided a warm and fuzzy shot of the affectionate couple being thrilled by riding the rails. Other happy travelers...

Hit by a rock? Are they serious? Was the “rock” the size of a greyhound bus? They are implying the rock was thrown at the train and that this somehow could have caused this derailment. Ha ha! That would be like sitting at the end of a 10,000 foot runway with a straw and spitwad and trying to take out a 747 on takeoff.

Here's the problem: we have a known gay activist at the controls of a train that enters a curve at twice the safe speed limit. Intuitively, we can assume that the engineer would be at fault for the speeding and the subsequent wreck and the deaths and injuries.

The "Gay activist" part enters into things when we have a sudden rush of supportive articles in the New York Times implying that the disaster was caused by GOP funding cuts for safety and cute little articles talking about the engineer "loving trains since he was little". It's part of a pattern of gays protecting each other at any cost.

Now, we suddenly "discover" that the train might have been hit by a rock - which would have had zero effect on the train, other than a dent somewhere.

Given the sudden rush to suppress/obfuscate/divert it would be reasonable to suspect that there's much more to this mess than we know and it's salient that engineer had a mental problem.

When a gay man texting caused the 2008 Metrolink crash there was little hesitation in the mainstream media to bring up his past that included tragedy and run-ins with the law. If that was the case here I think we would have heard it by now.

The “Amtrak needs more money” drums were banging from the earliest of wreck reports.

Of course from the start, the media will push for more government funding. That doesn't negate the point.

The media is going easy on Bastian and concentrating their efforts on AMTRAK funding and a possible projectile hitting the window.

It still would be better to work through all of those things without mentioning the sexual deviations of the engineer.

And they need to find the punk kids who threw the rock and charge them with murder and terroristic act, if the rock had any cause in the crash.

Do you have two sets of standards?

One for the rock thrower and one for the engineer?

Where's you comment about the engineer, who if he caused the accident, should be charged with murder.

“Did getting hit with a rock cause the train to accelerate to over 100mph? I’d like to see someone explain how that can happen.”

That is not outside the realm of possibilities.

Sure, it's within the realm of possibilities that the impact of the rock opened up a black hole and the gravity sucked the train in. How about we stick to reasonable possibilities?

Is there any reasonable scenario in which an engineer would accelerate his train in response to it having been hit by a rock?

Look at the undamaged right side of the window, where the black paint is. It's perfectly straight.

Now look at the left side black painted window edge. It's clearly been compromised or deformed inward right where some of the cracking is emanating from.

At least some of the windshield cracking clearly appears to be from a right side severe impact to the engine body.

Seriously? You’d get on a train this guy was driving?

Considering I would never know he was homosexual...Yes. I would

Do you drive your car knowing a certain amount of homosexuals also are behind the wheel on the road with you...?

Basically the same thing...

Until there is actual eveidence his homosexually played a role in this terrible event..it's sort of ridiculous to assume it did..

I abhor their perverted lifestyle, but all sorts of homosexuals do all sorts of jobs some even dangerous...

here’s the problem: A lot of people who have no idea what happened are claiming they know what happened.

Unfortunately, it is germane - gays are more often that average involved in violence, suicide and other erratic behaviors.

I was referring to the fact that the guy is known train crasher, but you’d get on a train with him driving. Homo-ness has nothing to do with it.

No double standard.

However, if someone did throw a rock, we know they acted with intent bad with malice. That being the case, the rock throwers should be charged with a terrorist act and murder.

If the case happens to be that the engineer premeditated the train crash and the rock hitting his windshield was a simple coincidence, then he should also be charged with terrorism and murder.

What is being "suppress/obfuscate/divert"....?

I think it's now common knowledge this guy was a homosexual...

As for having mental issues, if he does, he as well as he superiors will get tossed under the train so fast, their head will spin...

They might actually want to use that as an explanation for his behavior since if he is mentally fit and he caused the accident by error, he's going to prison for negligent homicide ...

I was unaware he had a history of crashing trains...

Maybe he should have been serving $14.50 hamburgers instead...

Yes, I see no reason that the guy has to be guilty of negligence/murder just because he is homo.

I may not like it, but I don’t see serious reason to think he tried to do this on purpose, or that he is too mentally deranged to handle a loco OK. Please post evidence besides “he’s a rabid gay activist!”

I tire of these crazy ramblings from our right side that make us look as unhinged and illogical as the left.

Just google “train accelerating at time of crash”

Lots of articles, mostly from two days ago.
