  1. A Shipping Channel misses a chance to talk Edmund Fitzgerald? 49 years ago Sunday.
    118
  2. For decades, no one ran into a bridge in Baltimore.
    87
  3. Reports are workers were active on the bridge. 😢

  4. It is really crazy just how International this business is. Japanese owners. Indian crew. Panama registry. Cargo of cars from Germany. Burning off of the coast of the Netherlands? And probably insured by Lloyd's in London? No wonder admiralty law is its own specialty.🤯🚢⚓

  5. Don't even begin to start talking to them about Pay phones or a Pre Windows universe.

  6.  @TurbeJäbä-n8e  there have been several ships that have had engine breakdowns just like, Dali. And near Bridges...
    41
  7. 🤔 Meanwhile..... What is the status of the Galaxy Leader crew? We are pushing 10 months now as Hostages.
    39
  8. You seriously want to try and think out the thought processes of terrorists?
    38
  9. It does have the same kind of make stuff up as you go along feel.
    31
  10. This is yet another dumb idea. We are not going to have any friends or Allies anywhere at the rate he's going. And who do you think pays these fees? Consumers....

  11.  @TheRealRedRooster  people don't normally walk around ships with fully loaded weapons. Even in the US Navy.
    23
  12. 😢 it seems that we in the United States are engaging in a, " might makes right type policy. " this American does not agree we should be doing so.
    23
  13. It's not like you're going to sink a boat with a rifle...
    22
  14. Maybe it's because the Egyptians are busy building a border wall? 🧱

  15. 🤔 As a side issue with used car transport; is anyone checking to see if these cars are stolen? We've had a huge problem with car theft rings here in Philadelphia. One car heist job was literally of a dozen Kia and hyundais straight from the port of Philadelphia lot. Another Big heist a few weeks ago were of cars straight from airport rental facilities lots. They literally came in, hotwire the cars and pointed a gun at the gate attendant and drove away with like a dozen cars. It's been said that a lot of these vehicles are being shipped overseas. How much customs oversight is going on with the transport of these vehicles? Even before we get to the issues about fire? 🔥 🚒

  16. Very heavy handed leverage. Memories will be long in many of these nations.
    19
  17. It's no worse than a school district that gets four and a half billion dollars a year; still not be able to afford air conditioning or get rid of asbestos.
    17
  18. Well... Is it that hard to find candidates for the job with slice of transportation background? 🤷🏽‍♂️

  19. YouTube has been censoring a lot of content creators. There's been a lot of upset going on for different issues. Gun channels in particular seemed to be in their crosshairs.

  20. ​ @xCheddarB0b42x they have Rules of Engagement. They had not been fired on or communicated with the other craft. You just can't shoot every boat that comes by.
    16
  21. The cargo is going underneath your Christmas tree.
    15
  22.  @BobHill-s2c  the problem with that is, that things like plastic explosives don't react to things like gunfire. You can shoot it, you can set it on fire. It requires a detonator.
    15
  23. ​ @raykettel1837 rifle bullets aren't going to sink a boat.
    14
  24. We don't have enough crew. That is why you only have one.
    14
  25. Is anyone looking after the interests of the crew of, Galaxy Leader? No one seems prepare to pay a ransom. Nor does anyone seem prepared to rescue them?
    14
  26.  @brucelytle1144  I hate to think what people would pay for a Christmas tree in Hawaii?🎄🎅 I guess lights on a Palm tree is not enough....🌴
    13
  27. 🙄 same folks in charge of border security I suppose?
    12
  28. Mercenaries don't stop ballistic missiles. Mercenaries don't have heavy armament. You cannot take armed vessels into ports.
    12
  29. ​ @backpackingonline it's likely the engines trying to go into reverse.
    12
  30.  @rodkennedy9800  just because someone Rings your doorbell, does not mean you can start shooting at them through a door. As we saw a few months ago. Same thing at sea. It's international waters. You are going to put yourself and the company on the hook for shooting some guy from Somalia, Yemen or wherever; just doing their thing. You didn't even have the captain on the bridge to okay such actions.

  31. Rather long time out the channel. On the bright side as far as I know the bottom of the river is mostly silt and mud. Not rocks. Are there any reports that the buoys moved or something? Did have some trouble finding salt this week. Expecting snow tonight. When will we get a Update on the S.S. United States drama? They still appear to be stuck here. I think the Coast Guard claimed they were not seaworthy? Is there any buyer's remorse for the county down in Florida? I believe they're being fined for time not moved from the berth? 🙆🏽‍♂️ And no folks, it's not always sunny here... It is today however. 🌞
    11
  32. Surely you are making a joke here?
    11
  33. 💁🏽‍♂️ being in logistics is not the fast track to a O-7 🌟......This was a White House West Wing run operation from start to fail.😣
    11
  34. You want to do more? Get Congressional authority.
    11
  35. That's not going to fly. And now you're going to put the company on the hook for shooting some potential fishermen. Nobody even speaks the same language....
    11
  36. You are free to hold that opinion. Faulty as it may be.
    11
  37. You see anybody else doing anything? Egypt could open up the Border and let everyone in Gaza walk over tomorrow. They don't want them.
    11
  38.  @DanielsPolitics1  it's a low-level show of force. Enough to scare off potential Pirates. Not terrorists with suicide boats or ballistic missiles. Same reason people put up signs that say, "beware of dog."🐩
    11
  39. ​ @rp1645 Your asking tugs to do a job that they are not really supposed to be doing. They are not emergency brakes.
    10
  40. ​ @danielch6662 that kind of defeats the point of underway replenishment. And they don't have jet fuel in those places.
    10
  41. You just are not going to sink a boat with a rifle.
    10
  42.  @aurorauplinks  but, it's not just this channel. Creators on all ends of the universe have issues with YouTube now. Whether it's doing yoga, dress hauls or talking about guns. The Karens basically screwing up popular channels all over the place.
    10
  43. Of course it will.
    10
  44. ​ @sirobin171 Egypt doesn't want the Border open either.
    10
  45. ​ @michaelhogan4337 This is non Military aid.
    10
  46.  @strayedarticle2838  what are you even talking about? Israel gave up the Sinai decades ago. And gave up Gaza over 15 years ago.
    10
  47.  @flyprdu  How about stop acting like terrorists for start? How about putting away the parasails and the rockets and giving up your hostages? How about they do something productive other than building tunnels and stockpiling weapons all day?
    10
  48. I vehemently disagree with your characterization.
    10
  49. The problem is Congress is not doing budgets. They've been living off continuing resolutions.
    10
  50. Nobody is stopping Domestic buyers. The highest bidder wins. And still subjected to government approval.
