Text your government friend and let them know you appreciate their work.

Hold the door for someone.

Text a friend or family member, and let them know you love them.

It is shockingly insensitive for families of the helicopter pilots to be seeking that kind of attention under the circumstances.


Don’t think those families are less devastated? You suck.


Of course they're probably devastated. But sometimes it is not appropriate to publicly ask others to join in your grieving.


She posted on her personal facebook page. Presumably, the only people that would be looking at it and sharing would be her friends and family. If "the public" doesn't want to share and join in her grieving, they don't need to look at her page.


NP here. Maybe this is the pilot who has a child and the wife wanted to collect photos for the child. I’m old enough now to unfortunately have a few friends die, leaving behind young children and this seems like a common request (to gather photos for the kids).


Yes, it would be understandable to ask for photos-- privately.

I don't understand how the family thought posting publicly was going to go over well. How do you think people would react if the family of someone that just T-boned a school bus at high speed posted this?


It was a public fb post?!


Yes, it was. Maybe not intentionally.


It's on her personal page, but the setting she has is public. Maybe because she thought there might be other people that she doesn't know/aren't her facebook friends, that still might want to share memories or photos of her husband. For example, some of his old friends from high school that he hadn't kept in contact with in the last several years, but they heard about this and looked at his wife's page. They may have some very special memories from decades ago that they'd love to share with is wife.


Again, how do you think people would react if someone publicly asked for photos commemorating someone that just ran a red light and t-boned a school bus? Would you be posting in their defense?


No reports have been published. You are making an assumption that the pilots purposely ignored safety protocol (e.g. like running a red light). There is no evidence at that, at this time. You are using an illogical fallacy.

Can someone explain how someone so young in the military was… a both a high ranking helicopter pilot and moonlighting as a White House aide?


The WH social aide gig is a prestigious thing. The ones I know went on to become a US Senator and a CEO.

Funny how the posters with pitchforks seem quiet now that she’s been named.


The PR angle of listing her prizes and awards and accolades was smart. They made the story instead of letting Trump make the story.



People cooled down because it appeared to be a middle class white woman and the fish they were hoping to catch was a transwoman given the anti-trans political shift. I totally disagree that hailing how wonderful someone who piloted a helicopter into 64 civilians on a plane was a stroke of PR genius. A stroke of trying the old tricks that had been proven to have failed miserably and for good couple months ago more likely. Just say nothing, yes there's a gullible public, and you can spin a lot, but not someone who piloted a helicopter into 64 civilians into a hero. Any commendation of her just will make people hate her more.


+1


Things cooled down, esp by Trump, because reports are her family were Trump supporters.


Sick. He is a sick man.

I wonder if she had posted comments critical of Trump or J6, and those were scrubbed. Imagine what a mess it would be if one of the pilots of the helicopter was a vocal critic of Trump.

How do you know the parents ever had it? DH and I only have FB (that we rarely use) and no others.

The services take care of their own. There are many mechanisms by which tribute items are shared so that is not a reason to keep the page up.


What "services?" Are you talking about the military?
No.
You obviously have no personal experience with this. Don't believe what you see on tv and movies.
