Somehow, it became hip to doubt everything. Stop trying to 'shake up' the world with your 'novel' notions of conspiracy and deceit. Sometimes a plane is just a plane. But two towers coming down in downtown NY is a tragedy. I see that you have posted a total of 15 times earthman...maybe you should slow down a bit and save post number 16 for something basketball related rather than this anti-establishment propaganda.
instead of following along mindlessly to everything you're fed in the media, maybe you should take a few moments of your life & do a little research into all the evidence that's available to you & then make your own decision of what really happened on that tragic day?

I base my opinion on the 9/11 Commission Report, which I have read. When I see a piece of crap, I am not afraid to call it out by name. You think I am picking on Earthman? Compare your statements to his. Yours are arguably open and non-confrontational. "Check it out". Fantastic. Everyone should make their own decisions. I am not picking Earthman out based on the number of posts he has, I am picking him out on the poor quality of the one in front of me. I call it as I see it.
Earthman's statements are basically regurgitated emotional zealotry based in anti-establishmentism. McCarthyism and the excessive scope of the Patriot Act? "The Patriot Act is taking away most of our rights"!!! I have read the Patriot Act and the laws it amends as well. We have far more rights than the Patriot Act seeks to infringe upon. Wiretapping? The Federal Government has had authority to use warrantless wiretaps on organized crime for decades. A super-majority of the provisions simply add the word "terrorist" to existing laws. Which provision do you hate the most? Can you name one or two? Or are you following the media on this one? [Rhetorical].
It is not mindless to agree with the government. It is mindless to assume that everyone should agree with you. All I ask is that you bring your best informed argument. And when I see crap, I am going to call it out for what it is. This theory is crap.
