So yeah the government sucks, this problem sucks, everything military sucks. In all seriousness, how can it be fixed? I know that's impossible to answer here or maybe even in one book. Now that we know everything sucks, briefly what's to be done about it. I really want to know. I can't imagine no one in the military…

OK. Let’s just disagree while agreeing on the big picture.

I agree your heart is in the right place and you’re on the right side of the discussion for sure. Even GM would agree believe it or not. It’s just that terms like murder and manslaughter isn’t helpful and you’re giving way too much credence to the idea that a bunch of people got together and decided they would murder…

Yeah...that’s what I was saying. Of course that’s not what I’m saying at all and I think you know that. I’m sorry I posted this stuff because too many people think emotionally. If you hung the guy who designed the switch what does that accomplish? Revenge? It’s a products liability case and nothing more. It’s business…

OK. You’re wrong. Consider yourself corrected. That’s not how the world works.

Well you should work on getting that done. Write your senator. Some of them agree with you. It’s not too late for that.

That’s a settlement decided by the guy who also decided damages to the 9-11 victims and the BP oil spill damage payouts. Anyway, I don’t know if you’re trying to straighten out my thinking but really, you needen’t do that. I don’t work for GM, I don’t run GM, I don’t write checks to victims. I’m just setting…

I’m not arguing that. I don’t know if that legally amounts to murder. Conspiracy maybe. NHTSA and the DOT knew about this problem and did nothing either. What about them? I think almost all car companies have hidden deadly defects. Ford Pinto, Jeep fuel tanks, Chrysler minivans with 3rd row seats unlatching, American…

I’m not defending GM. Not for 1 millisecond. From the lousy management to the idiot who signed off on this switch design after decades of car experience under the company’s belt (haven’t they retained anything they’ve learned over the years?) to the total idiot who approved a new part but kept the same part number, to…

#6 is the only one on the list I'd own. I'd build an Uber Marauder out of it and cheaply too!

A commercial can't say real people when they use actors. They would generally let the actors talk and put up a super saying actor portrayal or some permutation of that. That said, a skillful "host" or someone hired by the agency or production company can be very skillful and subtle in guiding people to say certain…

Now I have a man crush on him. My hero!

I did not know that!

Chevy blows another opportunity to get things right. Whatever already!

I dunno. I expect to be dead by then.

FORD TOUGH!

Huh?

Funerals are an odd ritual to me.

Oh....next time try booze and sex talk. Then bring up the car “afterwards” if you don’t want to see her again.

I don’t think the dead guy rode in the flower car where I’m from. They were in the hearse I think.
