Ride The Duck!

Reports are there was a DNC whistleblower on board. Add a few more tallies to the Clinton Kill List folks.

(Reuters) - At least eight people drowned when an amphibious “duck boat” capsized and sank in stormy weather on a lake in Missouri with 31 people on board, police said on Thursday, and divers were searching for other possible victims.

Seven people were taken to hospital following the incident on the “Ride the Ducks” amphibious vehicle on Table Rock Lake, near Branson, Missouri, Stone County Sheriff Doug Rader told reporters.

“We have eight confirmed fatalities,” Rader said in a televised media briefing. “We do have some people still missing.”

The fuck? Didn’t they have life preservers? How far from shore. That this could happen seems incredibly retarded.

I'm hearing they were very close to the dock actually. The storm came out of nowhere. Theres 10 dead and 14 missing now and i think there was about 31 people on it. Damn!

You mean the storm that came out of nowhere 30 minutes after a severe thunderstorm alert was issued and they went out anyway.

Seems like pretty cut and dry gross negligence.

As they should. Those families can never be made whole, but in way our system works the only justice they can receive is monetary. Some insurance company is going to be writing some big checks, although I wonder how much liability a Duck Boat company has to carry.

Hey rowboat, I'll do the pretend lawyering around here. Thank you very much.

Seems like gross negligence in my pretend expert opinion.
