Why do you care so much? What’s your angle on trying to gaslight me and the rest of the public? You think the public can’t recognize when someone is trying to pull the wool over?

Also, investigators can tell whether or not he pulled the trigger.

You wildly underestimate the speed, accuracy, and control that the government can perform with when it is a matter of national security.

You’re not wrong, but people wildly overestimate both the number of security cameras and CCTV that’s available in the US, let alone the methods utilized to maintain said cameras and data.

Charleston, SC (where the hotel was) isn’t London. Not only that, but most people wouldn’t have their attention called to a random…

“If anything happens to me, it’s not suicide.”

“but they had no evidence of that and have been walking it back ever since.”

I agree. This goes beyond FAA regulations and points at the perversity of Wall Street where long term investment, good for the country, has been replaced by short term, casino speculation, only good for the short term investor and ruinous to the long term economy. This can be moderated by taxing stock transactions…

So with all the billions of cameras anywhere and everywhere throughout modern society, can someone explain to me how we don’t seem to have footage of the events leading up to his death?

“Look at who is shorting the stock.”

A fucking huge-arse aerospace company and defence contractor who’s trying to stem their haemorrhaging stock price after a series of high-profile screw-ups? Hmmm...

If you are having suicidal thoughts...

Yeah, if he were whistleblowing on, say, a company that makes concrete pipes? I wouldn’t believe there’s a conspiracy.

Has the FBI started looking into this or is it still just the local police dept which will result in nothing. 

It’s all pretty wild. Billions of reasons to keep getting defense contracts. Billions of reasons to keep selling airplanes.

timing chains are plenty durable, I agree with that. Oil submerged belts though...GM has said they have a 150k mile life but I’m not so sure. As far as turbo’s not being new tech- you are correct as well. What turbo’s add to a car are more coolant and oil lines, waste gate actuators, and vacuum hoses. These are…

I actually admire the Spark. It is what it is, and it’s good at it.

I disagree. I’ve bought new refrigerators recently. Notice the plural there.  The new ones are rapidly approaching the worse days of GM when it comes to how long they last. 

I was going to jump on this statement as well. GM seems to have actually changed something when they went bankrupt. However, for so many people, GM is associated garbage cars. The best that could be said about many of them was “they run crappy longer than most cars run period.”

I think it pretty much did if GM hoped to stay relevant in their “we don’t want to sell cars anymore” era. It’s cheap for a crossover, but without Sonics and Cruzes to get people in the door and into the brand (or for an upsell), these need to be pretty good. And just going through their small CUV portfolio and making…

Cars like these are important. Not everyone can afford to spend $35-$50K on a vehicle. But if you’re going to offer something cheap at least make it not feel cheap. Get more than what you would expect. Not that this is a good comparison but a few years ago my brother and I went to see our parents. We rented a Chevy…
