Appalling report

I hope these guys never fly again. That is the most appalling report I have ever read. Six Sink Rate, seven Glideslipe warnings and two Pull Up warnings and they ignored them and talked over them. "The crew had experienced these before and considered them nuisance alerts"- astonishing!! At 300 feet they were descending at 1530 fpm. They continued past the missed approach point and entered IMC. Just unbelievable. Same crew, previous day flew below the glide and got 28 Glideslope alerts and ignored them. Speechless.
