For much of the new millennium, tragedy to the west begins and ends in aviation disaster.
The Western world sat on its hands, helpless, as the Germanwings flight 9525 inexplicably rocketed into the French Alps on March 24th.
Before the details were known, people could only speculate. Religious highjacking? Engine failure? Mother Nature throwing deadly tantrums?
Upon discovering the black box in the corpse-ridden wreckage, audio was recovered of the helpless pilot trying to get into the cockpit as Germanwings copilot, Andreas Lubitz, achieved the ultimate act of selfishness.
You can say whatever you want about explaining away evil acts through mental illness but the fact still stands that he MURDERED 150 human beings. 150 happy and healthy individuals just trying to make it home to kids, or sick grandparents, or hungry lovers waiting patiently to hold them at lonely airports.
A truly selfish murderer.
Recently, a German Newspaper, The German Daily Bild, met with the murderer’s ex girlfriend, Maria W. as she unfurled revelations that are sure to shock an already hapless community of mourners.
“When I heard about the crash, I remembered a sentence, over and over again, that he said,”
She pauses before chilling the blood of all who care to listen.
“‘One day I’ll do something that will change the system, and then everyone will know my name and remember it’.”
“I didn’t know what he meant by that at the time, but now it’s obvious,” she said.
This co-pilot had a history of mental illness, a history that was either ignored by Germanwings or improperly cared for. To be quite frank, this bastard of a human being did not deserve to set foot in a cockpit, much less pilot a plane and Germanwings should be ashamed of themselves.
This is not an attack on the mentally ill, this is an attack on the incalculable PREVENTABLE loss that is now irreversible because of a company’s deplorable employee evaluation and one man’s plans for recognition through mass murder/suicide.
The worst part of it all is that Andreas Lubitz was correct when he foreshadowed his serial killing to Maria W. , he did change things.
He changed 150 families’ dinner tables, he gave 150 coffin builders another melancholic job to do. 150 more reasons to wipe tears and shake heads at the monsters of this world.
He ensured that the inadequate and infantile oversight by Germanwings will never happen again by an airline.
