seriously wtf?

A high school kid was shot and killed earlier this week in my hometown.
Someone (I'm presuming a friend of the kid who was shot) posted a craigslist ad about who the shooter was, as the news/police isn't releasing the name.

Some other person posted a new ad in response to the original craigslist posting. I honestly do not know if this is a joke or not. If it is, it is in very very poor taste, and if it isn't I have no idea what to say...

Just read the ad

I think the guy is obviously misinformed. He says it at the top of the ad, that he only knows what he hears on the news.

[Alkasquawlik]

about the shooting yes.

but what about the pilot landing the plane on the Hudson, did you read that part?

but what about the pilot landing the plane on the Hudson, did you read that part?

Fuck yes I did, what a stupid thing to say. Even if the guy/kid is trying to get attention, saying that the "annoying" pilot tried to drown the plane is pretty ridiculous.

I wouldn't label the pilot as a hero. Highly trained and a li'l lucky, but no hero. There were way too many variables for that pilot to know the exact way to land the plane on the water. Don't get me wrong, he deserves the credit for successfully not killing all his passengers. He just shouldn't be labeled a hero. That title is reserved for people who go above and beyond what is expected of them.

if a loved one of yours was on that plane hed damn sure be a hero. he could have tried to make it to the airfield and taken out an entire neighborhood and all the passengers. he was also the last one off the plane. that will do for a hero until something better comes along

[tecks2k]

Damn right he's a hero. I don't care if it was all luck. The fact is, he was the one in charge of that plan and he put it down safely in a very unforgiving environment.

I had this argument with my friend. It's not everyday his plane hits a flock of flying cocks and the plane's engines catch fire causing him to land on water saving the lives of ALL his passengers all within a 3 minute span of time. That's definitely going above and beyond his normal call of duty. So you mean to tell me if you're on a plane and it's going down you won't stress because it's just part of the pilot's job and he does that type of heroic shit everyday, bullshit! Don't be a dumb fuck bro.
