Be careful what you wish for, Suckers. Obama, Holder, and Sharpton were all on TV abusing the police, but where are they now, when the bullets are killing little girls instead of thugs with long rap sheets?

Something for all of us to think about.....This is a great piece written by a retired United Airlines Captain.
Please read to the end....

We Are All Flying on the Germanwings Plane ... Will we Just wait in
the ‘Crash Position’ ?? The Captain was locked out of the cockpit.

That phrase finally revealed the full horror of the crash of
Germanwings flight 9525. Co-pilot Andreas Lubitz waited for the
pilot to leave the cockpit, then locked the door to prevent his
re-entry. After which Lubitz, for reasons unknown and perhaps
unknowable, deliberately steered the jet into a harrowing 8-minute
plunge ending in an explosive 434 mph impact with a rocky
mountainside. 150 men, women and children met an immediate,
unthinkably violent death.

Lubitz, in his single-minded madness, couldn’t be stopped because
anyone who could change the jet’s disastrous course was locked out.

It’s hard to imagine the growing feelings of fear and helplessness that
the passengers felt as the unforgiving landscape rushed up to meet them.

Hard ... but not impossible.

Because America is in trouble. We feel the descent in the pits of our
stomachs. We hear the shake and rattle of structures stressed
beyond their limits. We don’t know where we’re going anymore, but do
know it isn’t good. And above all, we feel helpless because Barack
Obama has locked us out.

He locked the American people out of his decision to seize the
national healthcare system. Locked us out when we wanted to know why
the IRS was attacking conservatives. He locked us out of having a
say in his decision to tear up our immigration laws, and to give over
a trillion dollars in benefits to those who broke those laws.

Obama locked out those who advised against premature troop
withdrawals. Locked out the intelligence agencies who issued warnings
about the growing threat of ISIS. He locked out anyone who could have
interfered with his release of five Taliban terror chiefs in return
for one U.S. military deserter.

And, of course, Barack Obama has now locked out Congress, the American
people, and our allies as he strikes a secret deal with Iran to
determine the timeline (not prevention) of their acquisition of
nuclear weapons.

Was Andreas Lubitz depressed, insane, or abysmally evil when he
decided to lock that cockpit door and listen to no voices other than
those in his head? Did he somehow believe himself to be doing the
right thing?

The voice recordings from the doomed aircraft reveal that as the jet
began its rapid descent, the passengers were quiet. There was probably
some nervous laughter, confusion, a bit of comforting chatter with
seatmates, followed by a brief period in which anxiety had not yet
metastasized into terror.

It was only near the end of the 8-minute plunge that everyone finally
understood what was really happening. Only near the end when they
began to scream.

Like those passengers, a growing number of Americans feel a helpless
dread as they come to the inescapable conclusion that our nation’s
decline is an act of choice rather than of chance. The choice of one
man who is in full control of our 8-year plunge.

A man who has locked everyone out.

If you aren’t screaming yet ... you should be !!!!
