    why do people not like theories as to what may happened during certain events? people's counter-arguments to theories are so stupid that it really makes the theory sound more and more interesting to me... which is one other thing i can't get, don't people atleast find some of the theories interesting? I feel like everyone is so fucking quick to just accept any bullshit told by the government that they never like questioning anything, or atleast even debating it...

    Why because it's the safe thing to do to some and they may appear unpatriotic to others. Such bullshit IMO.

    This forum has just put me into rotten moods in the recent past. I really liked all the early arguments that used to go on here. I even came to agreements to disagree with a few conservative members of the board. Now it's about arguing just to argue, b/c I think 95% of us on the board hate George W. so there's basic policy issues and conspiracy theories.

    I don't hate him as much as find his existence repugnant...

    i would say Stalled bus becuas ei think we hav egotten to teh point were peopel don't want honest opinions anymore. if you are on teh right they call you a sheep if yoru on teh left but choose to follow a popular person you are also a sheep. just to touch another tread demo. is failed when we refuse toi hear other people ideas.

    Too many conspiracy "theorists" for me. This used to be more of a liberal/conservative debate but has been taken over by the mentally ill.

    you say that like there's a difference.

    I don't come in much anymore. Arguing with people got old and doesn't do much good.

    I really think this forum has bounced back quite a bit since late last year. Two years ago it was all 9/11 and Loose Change all the time. Now, people are supporting their candidates, talking policies, and political strategy.

    Well said. I was going to say the same thing. I much prefer our focus over the past year on politics. Before that it was getting hard to weed through the paranoia to find much interesting.

    i was actualy thinking it might be time to start going over 911 again, now that there is some new video footage of the towers, and better conducted research on the physics of the collapse, and investigation of the "official" "investigation" ...

    the whole thing stinks.
    i just watched
    9/11: Blueprint for Truth -- The Architecture of Destruction
    and some of the information in that lecture is incontrovertable.

    The towers actualy ACCELERATED in their fall!
    That IS gravity, not "near" the speed of gravity.

    When objects fall in meters per second PER SECOND there is a PROBLEM.

    How about the squibs at the top right corner in the video of WTC 7? WTF?
    All buildings falling through the path of MOST resistance?
    The video footage of an exploded car and a missing column that is totaly blasted in the BASEMENT?

    The NIST reports are so full of holes its not funny, people who stuck to the "wrong" story got fired. How bout this? The same 4 FEMA investigators that did the Oklahoma City bombing engineering investigation were appointed for the ASCE\NIST investigation. THE SAME FOUR PEOPLE! How many hundreds of thousands of ASCE engineers, and only FOUR good enough for doing work on terrorism related events? How about the fact that NIST itself is a GOVERNMENT agency that reports to THE PRESIDENT?

    ???

    Anyone

    ???

    And you, gentlepeople, are like Hippiemom in a sense for you are cornerstones and great people who invoke thought...

    Don't stop doing what you do...We are reading...some of us are just not as eloquently pronounced.

    I humbly thank you, for if I had not landed on this train only 3 years ago, I would be nestled safely in what we referred to as straight line thinking...

  • I once heard of this guy who had a house full of guns and obsessed over them all the time. He like to hold them, polish them, and keep them close by just in case...and he was not considered mentally ill in the least.














    Just kidding there's no such reality...

    :D

    I just built my little gun shop in the basement. Learned how to re-blue a gun and I have been reloading for my .50 cal. Fired the first of my handloads yesterday. Worked like a charm!

    Firearms ROCK!
