GEORGETOWN, Guyana (AP) — Officials say a U.S. team is expected soon in the South American nation of Guyana to probe the crash of a Boeing 737 jetliner that all 163 people aboard survived.
Authorities so far have given little idea about the cause of Saturday's crash. The Caribbean Airlines plane ran off the end of a runway at Guyana's main airport and broke in two. About 30 people had to be treated at a local hospital, including the pilot.
The airline is largely owned by the government of Trinidad and Tobago and its prime minister has visited the crash site. Kamla Persad-Bissessar says she is worried that the accident will hurt tourism to the Caribbean, a region that depends heavily on the industry. [Reply]

I have no desire to gather groups in my favor, thank you very much. Especially if it's a group of low life, classless, bottom-feeders. I'll leave that to losers like you. [Reply]

It's your choice to be one way or another. But if being a caveman tastes good to you then be my guest.
God, how I wish you never told anyone that you were Iranian. The fact that you use that as your shield is really, really annoying. vailpass has insulted me and my immediate family countless times due to my ethnicity, I understand why you might bring that out at times and get all defensive about it.
And yes, people giving you shit about left hands, turbans, stonings and other irrelevant things in this thread are contributing to your mindset, but trust me when I tell you that me calling you stupid has nothing to do with any of that, it's simply because you're not smart. At all.
You're also a liar and a snitch and an embarrassment to all Persians. [Reply]

If so, then yes, you would have a valid point, but it doesn't explain why you keep reminding them every 15 minutes.
Idiots need to be pointed out to the rest of us. There are folks who post here whose opinions of myself I value. And hopefully they have recognized the tribe of the petty idiots by now. Unfortunately there are continuous signings up on this board and new injection of the like idiots.
And BTW Bearcat, you do realize that by combining the two threads you have now protected the total assholes who posted in my dad's thread the way they did, don't you. I don't know if it was your intention or not. But it did protect them from the eyes of other CPers. [Reply]

I'm not new to the language. We all talk in generalities. Only those with petty grudge and insecurity dwell on every word and twist the spirit of the point. [Reply]
I've been searching google for references to an elderly man being beaten. This thread is the top result. I don't see anything that matches this description, though. This sure seems odd. [Reply]

It was another common generality used to make a point. But keep twisting words and intents. That's the only recourse of a loser with a chip on his shoulder. [Reply]

If you feel the need to create another thread if you have an update on your dad, feel free to do so, but I can't promise it won't get locked if it ends up going down the same path as these threads.
