Surely there's a place where your beliefs are welcome that's not wasting my tax dollars.

I've been reading these boards for awhile and know of who you are talking but I'm sorry I'm not Lebanise and I don't drink coffee so would never freak out at the girl in the drive through for "spilling" one all over my Blackberry. Especially because I have an iPhone.

Could never understand why the guy used a heart for an avatar either.

1 day post count because I just signed up, not because I just discovered the board. My brashness with morons doesn't just exist on the internet. I love the posts though as they make the little troubles I have in my life seem so minute in comparrison to the pure hell it must be living under a tinfoil hat thinking big brother is watching your every move, even when you sleep, to decide if you are the next "victim" in their plot to trick the masses to your side and allow you to waltz into a 3rd world country guns blazzing and claiming mission accomplished while leaving your own country in the poor house.

As for CC I think pylon and my exchanges have been the least weird and most believable posts in this entire thread

I fail to see the difference between this and some "truther" sites out there.

Also just because some people question the official story doesnt mean they believe every conspiracy to do with the topic.

Isn't that an assumption though? Just cause I believe 9/11 means I believe everything from the government?

There's a difference between what the masses believe and the levels of rediculous bullspit conspiracy theorists go to dissprove the common knowledge and/or the blatantly obvious truth seen with your own eyes.

Anyone who truely believes 9/11 was a US government inside job and not the work of extremist terrorits needs to pack their bags and move to a small island in the middle of the ocean. Or seek the help of a GOOD mental health care proffessional.

So if I believe there were no WMD's in Iraq, that makes me a conspiracy theorist? Not a ####ing chance. There is logical thought and looking at the evidence presented to you and then also looking at that same evidence and presuming there's more.

You might want to check out the definition of conspiracy.

If you're making the assumption that governments acting on bad natured intelligence is a conspiracy theory 100% of the time, you're not having an open mind like you claim in this thread.

If you harp on having an open mind, why do you presume that anything the government says is wrong? You're a so called "truther" if you have that type of bias.

When did I say 100 percent of the time?

When did I say everything the government says is wrong?

If a governnent is lying to their citizens about a certain topic, at its simplest form it could be considered a conspiracy.

Beerfest can you answer me this?

If the governent DID plan 9/11, and brought down the WTC. Why go through such an elaborate plan for the Pentagon?

Why divert the plane elsewhere, dispose of the people somehow, hide the plane then fire a missle at the pentagon? What purpose does that all serve VS just flying the damn plane into the pentagon?

I still don't know why someone hasn't come forward saying they were involved in the cover up and planning of 9/11...OTHER than Osama Bin Laden himself.

My belief is that some planes were hijacked by exploiting holes in security checks and balances in a country that had become complacent with its airport security and other screening processes. Those planes were flown into the Towers and they collapsed, how can a plane take down a tower?? How can it not? Has that scenario ever been played out before? Was there anything every saying that could not happen??

Yes there was warnings and intel leading up to those events that were ignored and shouldn't have been but after how many years of hearing and intercepting threats why should these ones have been treated so differently? If there was any 9/11 conspiracy the amount of people and objects needed to do so would have been on such a grand scale SOMEONE would have said something.

I think some people just have trouble digesting the truth and cant just see things for what they were and are.

/\ Simple and rational thought.

I thought it VERY strange when going to LA in late Dec 2000 flying through Seattle that my entire family walked right between the 2 security stations into the secured area by mistake and no one stopped us and turned us around. Once we realized where we were we went back and checked in properly but the security was so lax it's obvious how the terrorsits were able to get themselves in. Takes a special kind of sicko to do what happened 10 years ago.

Takes another special kind of sicko to believe the US government did it all themselves.
