Please provide evidence to back up your assertion that someone *screwed up and killed 49 people*? Who are you blaming and based on what evidence?

You haven't even read the news? You don't have the facts? And you don't care what they are? But somehow my comment is the one in bad taste?

Is that how you intended to go through your life?

So now that you've joined thisr thread that was posted as a prayer request, you're going to join everyone in praying for the situation, right?

You might find it interesting that there was a combination of circumstances that led to the accident. You might find it interesting that alcohol had nothing to do with it.

Consider this as well. How many seasoned pilots would attempt takeoff, with a full load, on a runway 1500 feet short of min. roll? Do you think the pilot or co-pilot had a death wish?

Just like MURTHA and the Marines in HADITHA, maybe you are a little to quick to judge others, considering YOU WEREN'T THERE.
