You’re on the money. Dropping truth bombs.
I agree. I do think conservatives are better equipped to be introspective and open to change of thought through facts or logical persuasion.
Liberals are their own gods. They suffer from this notion that somehow the cosmos bows before their throne and that all creation should recognize their supremacy in all things.
If it doesn’t support how they feel about something, it is, by virtue of not conforming to their perception of themselves, invalid.
Obama is a classic example.
I wasn’t there, and I couldn’t care either way. Post 37 describes the start sequence and what to do if you get a hot start, wet start, etc... But post 37 describes a wet start as accidental.
I think what many say is that JM had done wet starts as a joke . There were many carefree and foolish things navy pilots did for kicks.
A fellow AOCS and primary flight students dad was a spad pilot in Vietnam. His dad told me the spad pilots would sometimes drag their tailhooks in the rivers for kicks. Did they do that? I don’t know. WW2 pilots fold me some funny stories also. And even in the 90s overseas there was a healthy dose of gross buffoonery.
Wet starts probably to into the same foolish category. Did JM do them? Not a clue.
All we have is video. And the training video shows a Zuni cook off in a simulated test shot... and the narrator makes it look like the cause of the fire by saying “there it is”.
The 1973 training video says there is a dispute regarding what happened, and we will never really know the cause as time rolls on (6 years after the accident they made this 1973 tape.)
I would guess that JM did NOT start the fire, since its not on video. Many said he did. If people made up that story... Then shame on them.
