For those who don’t know, in the first photo, Cheyenne Mountain is just to the left of the parachute. The second photo features Pikes Peak.

IN ADDITION TO THAT... a Navy Blue Angel jet has now also crashed near Smyrna, Tennessee this afternoon.
No word yet on the condition of this pilot.

If a plane crashes on an international border where do you bury the survivors?
If they're mexicans, you send the survivors to the US........

Wow! That is the jet in the field? Looks like they can repair that one or use it for spare parts since oturdburgler won’t buy the military any spare parts.

I love it when our FReeper family members find the crazy stupid things buried in the headlines. I usually read right past them, I don't see the foolishness of the writer/editor and then a teammate of ours points it out. They make me laugh, some are so bad I can't believe I read right past them....
To: US_MilitaryRules
Yeah it looks so.

If the survivors are liberals, democrats or progressives it doesn’t matter. As long as you bury them real deep!

Pretty common nowadays, hell I see STREET SIGNS, Freeway Off ramps, spelled wrong. It is all over TV also, the education level of this country is abysmal, The no teeth, inbred, folks from the Appalachians 100 years ago were much more educated than the Average Public School Gradjyouit

Look how close the jet is to the pilot. Must have been really LOW.

Maybe the plane hit the ground before the pilot in his parachute landed?
