But yeah, I just think people should be cool with each other and not attack their theories/ideas/whatever, because it is indirectly a personal attack upon the person as well.

you find it easier to believe that aliens crashed a ufo in the desert than a weatherballoon crashed in the desert ?

Yes. Especially when the evidence shows that it was not a weather baloon.
The air force has changed its story three times. The witness testimony has remained unchanged.
The Air Force has lied, and has twisted facts, chronology, and speculation to distort the story even further.
So, since we do not have alien bodies and craft for evidence, we must examine testimony, and witness reliability and possibility.
Air Force: has changed story a few times. Has history of cover-up behavior in many areas. Weaver, the Air Force Colonel who came up with the Mogul baloon sotry was a counter intelligence officer- Specialty: disinformation.
Witnesses: Com,e from very impressive backgrounds. Some held very important security positions. Many familiar with Air Force tech.
If this was a court of law, the ruling would be in favor of the alien crash theory, even without the bodies and wreckage. Without those, we could not get the defendant on a murder conviction.
But it would nail many other convictions on the air force.
Air Force has zero credibility here. How can anyone believe anyone who has lied pathologically on this subject over and over again?
So yes, given what evidence we have, I find it alot easier to believe aliens crashed in the desert than Mogul or a human test, given the evidence.

Yeah, what he said.
Your right, if the government were to testify in court, their credibility would be questionable at best.
BTW, do those aliens ever stop hitting each other? Great avatar.

The original Roswell crash news story was released as a "flying saucer," but was replaced by "weather baloon" story. Correct?
But thats exactly what the Goverment wants us to believe happened

However, It could well have been a US military secret material in 1947.

No one has yet to discuss how a baloon over the US could somehow magicaly spy on the USSR.

The whole man in a baloon theory is rubbish. We knew the effects of high altitude LOW pressure on humans back then and had a long record of scientific study on the subject from during the war. You do not expand as suggested unless you are at near vaccume far above altitudes that can be reached by a manned baloon and only your eyes would bulge out not your entire head. The skull would not expand. military protocal requires that a parachute be equipt on all flights and would have been delpoyed in an emergency. Mylar does not return to its orrigional shape when crumpeled nor does it remain unwrinkeled although there is some springback it is no where near to the descripion of eye witnesses. We dont even need to discuss the time frame of mylars invention as we know it didnt even exist at the time. A protective suit without a helmet?? Come on, we well knew of the extreem cold of high altutudes and a helmet with oxygen equiptment would of been used for any high altitude flights in a manned baloon. No one has yet to discuss how a baloon over the US could somehow magicaly spy on the USSR. If that was possible then why did the balck hawk spy plane have to fly over the USSR years later and not simply fly over the US? A manned baloon would have had some means of comunicating with the ground and would of either had some means of controle or a tether to bring it down. They wouldnt simply send one up with a man aboard, let it go and then abandon it to the fates. Its too illogical. I could poke holes in the baloon theory all day but it is so far off that that particular baloon theory will never get off the ground. If you must debunk please come up with a better thought out concept.
FROM THE MODERATOR
Summary
Growing criticism prompted the Air Force to launch a full-scale
investigation, which ended in last week's report, optimistically
titled, The Roswell Report; Case Closed.
Still, McAndrew and Kittinger believe the witnesses are simply
confusing 40- to 50-year-old events, and they note that no one claimed
to have seen or heard of alien bodies until the 1970s.
An ''alien'' with a large head seen walking on the base after the
crash was actually a pilot whose head was grotesquely swollen after a
parachuting injury, they said.
''People want to believe that there are UFOs, people want to believe
that there are aliens.
I was told that the occupants involved in the experiment/study, whatever you want to call it, DID in fact go far enough up into the atmosphere, actually, past the atmosphere, where that vacuum effect does occur. Now, that being said, the entrance into above the atmosphere probably is what caused the balloon manned craft (whatever you want to call it), to crash once it hit that certain altitude.

Again, we still have the same problems...even if we go down the rabbit hole of supposing this actually took place....
1. Just how were these folks supposed to see and/or document anything they saw from that altitude?
2. So they just sacrificed these guys?
3. Why even send a man? An automated camera would have sufficed...
4. They had no way to control the flight direction of these alleged observation balloons.
Simply put, the theory has more holes than swiss cheese....
yes, it does indeed have a lot of holes, You know when somebody tells you something, a story, or an event that took place from word of mouth? You don't always remember exactly every single little detail...you only remember the important facts, while the little facts that lead up to the big ones can be what count as well, but are forgotten nontheless.

Then we get the Goverment ''simple explaination'' just a (Weather Ballon) and they lied. Even though people believed them for a long time.
Then they say it was Top secret Mogul
Then they say it was Mogul and dummies dropped from Balloons
The Goverment's simple explaination is not so simple
