Truck hit by train carrying GOP lawmakers was in crossing after warning, NTSB says
The train carrying members of Congress to a Republican retreat in West Virginia last month struck a garbage truck that had entered a railroad crossing after safety gates had come down, according to a new report released Wednesday.
The National Transportation Safety Board said in a preliminary report that witnesses told investigators the truck drove onto the crossing after the warning gates had lowered.
The train, which was operated by Amtrak, also had a forward-facing camera, which showed as the crossing came into view, “the gates were down and the refuse truck was on the grade crossing.”
What’s that 144k army thing?
Or staying at someone’s place while their out of town or at home
Saw a list the other day on the amount of sealed indictments per state. Wouldn’t you know it the blue estates were #1 again.
If it happened that the driver sat a while, thought the gate/signal was malfunctioning, and, then tried to drive around the ends of the gates -- it wouldn't be the first time that stupid stunt had been pulled...
THANKS.
Thank you for not being so.
However, sadly, such jerks have successfully conditioned us to sort of have a knee jerk response to anyone remotely in the ball park of being a naysayer.
"Don't rush to attribute to malice that which can readily be attributed to stupidity -- which is far more common..."
AMEN! AMEN! The ONLY sensible seriously effectively solution.
In reference to Q post 793, Deep Dream, I found this article on the Jason Borne series.
For what it's worth:

In the new film, Iron Hand is described as the successor program to Treadstone. Treadstone was the program that created Jason Bourne, erasing his memories and turning him into a killing machine. And while the film uses some misdirection to make the audience think Iron Hand is a new type of super soldier program, it's actually something completely different something that reflects the current priorities of the CIA. Simply put, Iron Hand is a surveillance program. A surveillance program that, if enacted, would give the government free reign over the private data of countless citizens. So how would the CIA go about doing such a thing?
In the film, the CIA is building Iron Hand around a deal with a social media giant called Deep Dream. It's hinted that the agency provided seed money for the social network, which has since become Facebook-sized and boasts a billion-and-a-half users. Given its wide reach, the CIA is now calling in a favor, wanting back-door entry past encryption; giving them access to all of those users' personal information. The codename for this scheme, of course, is Iron Hand. The current political climate doesn't necessitate the molding of super spies so much anymore as it does looking for ways to gain access to all of the information everyone already puts on the internet willingly. Iron Hand is basically everyone's worst fear about their increased online presence come to life, and it's what Jason Bourne wants to stop from happening in the new film.
Iron Hand may be the next Treadstone, but it shows a new side of the CIA's tactics. Learning to throw a punch is less important than learning to write code when it comes to today's covert operations, and Jason Bourne explores that reality.

Evil does have a tendency to be stupid. However, their arrogance tends to blind them to that fact.
Except they wouldn’t have then stopped, left truck parked on rails ...
Thanks.
LOL.
Some are asserting that the confiscated wealth of the top tiers of evil doers will be more than sufficient to pay off the national debt as well as a ton of infrastructure projects.
Thanks for your kind affirmation.
Nevertheless, the Socratic method is much better for influencing the masses psychologically.
And, it takes time to plow the ground; shift the paradigm; etc. etc. with a minimum of civil chaos, if not civil war.
We really do NOT NEED chaos in the streets. And those who worship Shrillery and OBummer are more than happy to become violent, as they have repeatedly recently demonstrated.
See “The Rapture”
Methinks ‘suspect’ is a farrrrrrrrr to weak of a term. LOL.
One of the better decoders/interpreters of Q-Anon drops.
Very similar to my existing screen name. Something like 4q
