Why does every Wright Amendment thread turn inot a pi$$ing contest between AA/SWA?

I mean, really! Y'all act as if the other pilot group is PERSONALLY launching an attack against you. It's not the pilot groups' faults that the WA is here, and if it gets repealed it won't be the pilot groups' faults either! So why all the personal attacks. Let Congress decide what's best and leave it at that. I mean, if someone dares voice opposition to repealing the WA, you SWA dudes act as if he just insulted your mothers! Likewise for the AA dudes. CHILL, the decision is out of our hands. Let's not wage personal attacks over something we cannot control. Why does everyone get so emotional over it?

What did you call my mom??

Seriously, we just want the truth to be told.

Around Dallas and Ft. Worth this is a very intense and emotional situation. Even retired pilots get very personal about it. That is why it gets ugly.

"Ya'll?" I can't find that in the dictionary.

"I don't even think I've ever seen a grit"

Hey man, I agree. There's no need for name calling. I think its the competitive nature of pilots (especially if your airline is downsizing and you stand to be furloughed). I'm not at SWA, but I have a brother at AA and he definitely has his opinions, but he keeps it in perspective.

You obviously didn't look in Webster's Texas Edition.

Well, I think the truth has been told a million times by now. I mean, who DOESN'T know the history of the WA these days, right?

Actually, it's y'all not ya'll. Contraction for you all. Oh nevermind......

Oh nevermind......

Oh, great.....I can't even find "nevermind" in the dictionary.......!?!
