Fully automatic gasoline engines, my friend. Think about it. You pull the trigger once and the engine fires thousands of times. You have a magazine capable of feeding that engine thousands of shots per second for hours on end. The end result is a high-speed projectile that is under the control of a madman (or madwoman) and capable of very deadly things. Very deadly things indeed.
Ban civilian use of internal combustion engines.

Isn’t the boat name “Conception” weird? I mean, guess it could refer to non-sex things but it could have held more people. And like folks are pointing out, only the crew survived.
But check this out. The boat was stolen in 2005 and parked at a top secret base:

That’s odd.

Technically he is correct in saying its a "Top Secret" base, in that you need that clearance to operate there in its main capacity. It's main capacity is a missile launch and testing, space operations and tracking base. "Simply a base", it is not.
Edit: might add I did 24 years USAF (still hold Secret clearance) and have been there, so this is coming from a point of expertise, not conjecture.

My friend is one who wants to acheive their goal of landing on all the Chanel islands, this island being one of them. They finally received approval to do so and have to undergo a DOD background check. Once they pass, they will be able to visit the island under a "community effort" (picking up trash), under guard watch and transported to and from the island by military personnel (helicopter).

Apparently the way the boat is built. The sleeping quarters are down below because there is supposedly less movement from being in a boat on water and the crew's quarters are above to be close to the bridge. I hope it wasn't a boatload of missing kids.

Okay, that makes more sense. So, it is sex based. I’m sure conception point was a good place to get laid.
But I still think it’s odd that the boat was stolen and the thieves took off running on a top secret base.
What’s the odds of that happening and then the President pointing the same boat?

Reminds me of a convenient plane crash. Who compromised the passengers?

Yep this is it. Impossible even the most cowardly crew would have tried to save a few.... They saved NONE!

Why would "divers" on a commercial diving boat all die when they are supposedly skilled at swimming?
[–] 20428714? 0 points 3 points 3 points (+3|-0) ago
One of the news outlets KTLA I think claimed that there was only one way to get down below and they figured that the fire was so intense and blocked the exit which is also where they stored all their gear supposedly. They figure they would have passed out from smoke inhalation very quickly.

Well, Jacque, apparently diving skills aren't very effective when you're asleep and trapped inside a burning boat below deck at 3:00am? What were they supposed to do? Hold their breath until the fire was out? Skillfully swim through the fire? Quick, decode Trumps sneaky tweets to get to find out what really happened.
Some of you clowns are no brighter than the dupes on the left.
