Before 9/11

"What do you guys think about all the conspiracy theories? I knew some of
them and some of them actually sound really interesting, but yesterday I
heard for the very first time the claim that actually no planes hit the
buildings. I've seen it in a youtube documentary (September clues) and
to be honest I don't know what to think - on one side their arguments
seem pretty strong, but on the other side it all seems just TOO crazy to
believe."

I find this documentary interesting:

EVERY new conspiracy theory has ONE thing in common with EVERY other previous theory - the state of being rubbish. You can't fake planes hitting buildings. Anyone who believes these (ahem) shockumentaries would be no further away from the truth if they believed that Princess Diana and Shergar were flying the planes.
If you honestly don't know what to think - take a leaf out of your own LAST FOUR WORDS

The Towers were hit by planes, no doubt about it.

This site debunks most of the conspiracy theory shit surrounding 9/11 >> http://www.debunking911.com/

But if you wanted some videos to watch that debunks the 9/11 conspiracy theories, Myles Powers has done a series, starting with this one >> https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mmIjDfpTeMc

What's even more disturbing is when you realise that most of the 9/11 conspiracy theories stemmed from Alex Jones >> http://www.slate.com/articles/news_and_politics/trutherism/2011/09/where_did_911_conspiracies_come_from.html

99% of conspiracy theories are nothing but horseshit, and it's all about making money out of people who are a little credulous, via book, sales, dvd sales, and advertising etc.

Don't get suckered in. One conspiracy theory leads to another too. If you're susceptible to 9/11 conspiracy theories, next thing, you might find yourself believing that Sandy Hook was a false flag operation, or vaccines are a plot to depopulate the planet, or that cannabis is a cure for cancer, or other non-evidenced based conspiracy theories such as governments spraying populations with chemicals from jet engine exhausts to make people dumb and subservient. The list goes on....
If you're checking out a particular conspiracy theory, my advice is to always look at the other side of the story - Google search whatever you've seen, but put "Debunked" behind the Google search. For example - "Sandy hook debunked" etc. Or instead of debunked, try "Skeptic" or "Skeptoid"....

It's always worth looking into the science of the claims too, but then you've also gotta be aware of how some conspiracy theory sites completely mislead when it comes to science, and some so called scientific journals are fake too.
There's a hell of a lot of shit on the internet. Try typing "Stonehenge 1954 into Google search for an example.
Another good site is Rationalwiki. It's always worth looking something up on there to see what they say about it. I find that they're often on the ball.
An example - http://rationalwiki.org/wiki/RT
There's another site called Metabunk, that cuts through a lot of the conspiracy theory bullshit.

Yeah, my favourite conspiracy theory is darwinism and evolution, is obviously a pile of crap, but is fun to read that fantasy.

I have my own theory, and is Darwin was more on drugs than Morrison while writting that, even more when it was stated our Lord create the Earth 4000 years ago.

A couple of comments to comment on:

'Gift shop' is a figurative term. It's a place to purchase items to help offset the costs or grab a memento.......just as at Pearl Harbor, Arlington, Gettysburg, Ford Theater, Normandy.....

The attacks were directed at icons of American government and capitalism.

I have now learned what 'twoofers' are. They probably believe that David Copperfield moved the Statue of Liberty as well.

Finally.....I was on a Billy Squier kick a few months ago. I purchased 'Enough is Enough' on vinyl when first released, but never saw the video for 'Love Is The Hero' until this past summer. Simply thought it was the right day to post the link.

I have absolutely no memory of 9/11, in case you want to feel old.

Yeah, that makes start to just think about feeling old.......lol

The weird thing that will stick in my head is afterward............seeing NO airplanes whatsoever in the sky for a few days...........and I lived a few miles away from a major international airport at the time!


I see there was the inevitable 'conspiracy theory' discussion in this thread..........ehh...........I actually rather enjoy reading about conspiracy theories, but I usually end up thinking they are a bunch of hooey.....which is what I think about the 9/11 'conspiracy' stuff..........

(tho I do think there might very well have been some sorta conspiracy behind the JFK assassination......but thats a whole different thing)

So I found it - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gORu-68SHpE

On one hand it looks really well "proven" but when you think how MANY people would have to be involved (TV reporters, military, police, fire fighters, random people in the streets ...) it starts to look too crazy to be true

Have you gone soft? I don't remember you being the type of guy to type a smiley face in order to seem more lighthearted.
