    The NYPD have sought out the plane in question and plan to extradite it once apprehended.

    Mayor Adams held a press briefing earlier today to talk about how best to hold a literal airplane accountable in the death of a bank executive.

    “New York’s finest will not rest until we find justice for Terry Dolan and his family. We will find the plane responsible and bring it to bear judgment in a public court. we will leave no stone unturned, and I personally will look that TBM 700 in its eyes and pledge to ensure they never see the light of day again.”

    Tonight New Yorkers can rest easy knowing Mayor Adams is watching the skys for copycat planes.

    I work in the same building complex as U.S. Bank MN headquarters. Their employees have to drive past our building to get to theirs. Idk what’s going on in that work environment but those employees are angry and constantly almost run us over in the crosswalk and parking garage. Everyone in our building hates them.

    Shit, rich people are dying? We better get around to fixing this whole air travel issue asap!

    Seriously, it seems like plane crashes are replacing school shootings as the American tragedy-de-jour

      I’ll be honest, I was just thinking about the lack of school shooting news. Is it just getting buried or do those kind of assholes just feel too “seen” by this administration to take it out on kids or something?

          Not school shootings and almost all of those are gang/drug/domestic related. Seriously the first and second one are gang activity.

          People think mass shooting/school shooting is a random act of violence. No one thinks mass shooting when two drug dealers are shooting each other.

          It’s bad enough, but we don’t need to drive false narratives.

            You’re right, I should have clarified that it was mass shootings I listed not school shootings. But I would still consider mass shootings involving gang members to count, as innocent civilians are regularly injured from this.

              Yea innocent people do get injured, but that’s a whole different set of issues to solve vs school shootings or mass shootings at random.

        Your guess is as good as mine; I couldn’t speculate on the thoughts of mass murderers. The cynic in me says that shootings no longer represent compelling content to the average consumer, so it doesn’t get pushed as hard.

        I haven’t looked up any actual statistics comparing recent mass shootings in the US, so I really can’t say.
