Had to fly out of other airports rather than JFK because they couldn't bring box cutters on board. Other airports that flew over military bases to boot. If these "terrorist" pretended to be pilots, wouldn't they have been able to bring box cutters with no problem? They were after all "pilots". Hell, I could defend the "terrorist" who have been accused of plotting 9/11 and win. What plane has no seats? How can such a fragile "plane" penetrate concrete and steel with NO resistance? Why did they fly out of Boston instead of NY. Why did Bush say he saw the first plane live on TV when NO ONE was filming the towers from ANY news source before the attack. But the believers seem to think these lies are true.

They call us "truthers" nuts. I think they are the ones who are nuts. They don't understand that there should have been some resistance with the "planes" and the towers collapsing, but they would rather believe the story they were told. They can't handle that our own government did this to us so they can do what they do to us today. Arrest you with no cause, and throw the National Security shit at you.

That doesn't make sense. You're implying that we should theorize about things we already know. nt CJCRANE Aug 2013 #4

I used "theorize" in quotes. Cooley Hurd Aug 2013 #11

So what about *before* the Snowden revelations? CJCRANE Aug 2013 #14

What about agent orange and not accepting the official story? Cerridwen Aug 2013 #7

Whuh? Cooley Hurd Aug 2013 #10

You're missing the point. Before something is a known "fact", it is a theory. CJCRANE Aug 2013 #15

No he's not. He's actively avoiding it. Cerridwen Aug 2013 #17

Not avoiding anything, Skippy... Cooley Hurd Aug 2013 #19
