COVINGTON, Ga. (AP) — Two people were killed when a single-engine plane crashed shortly after takeoff late Saturday from a small airport east of Atlanta, authorities said

Police said responding officers found the aircraft and the two victims in woods just north of the runway in Newton County, about 35 miles (55 kilometers) east of downtown Atlanta.

The crash is being investigated by the FAA and the National Transportation Safety Board

    This nuance would be so utterly disregarded if the tables were turned. Let him eat blame for every event that happens from this point forward.

      It would be hypocritical to desire understanding of nuance from others but not possess it ourselves.

      There is plenty to shit on Trump for. Including his continued gutting of the FAA. Future accidents will be his fault eventually, at this rate.

      But I thought the dipshits putting Joe Biden “I Did That” stickers on gas pumps were complete morons. There’s no reason to stoop to the level of blaming everything you don’t like on the guy you don’t like. That’s simplistic tribalism and frankly stupid.

          Did you miss the Toronto crash?

          I’m not sure why you asked me this in response to this comment. The Toronto crash has nothing to do with anything I said there.

          As for my previous comment in the chain, I made that comment roughly around the same time as the crash happened. So obviously I hadn’t heard of it yet.
