You're never going to convince most 'Truthers' (sic) as most of them have convinced themselves into believing that 'The wreckage evidence proves 100% that F93 was shot down!!!'
They choose to ignore the evidence too.
One problem you have which they don't share however, is you need to prove where F93 went, and where are the passengers.
Then explain why some 'downed plane at Shanksville' story was manufactured, by whom, and how the families of the dead crew & passengers were convinced to believe it.
And what's all this stuff the early rescue workers dug up?

For a theory to have legs, you need to address ALL the issues and explain all the evidence. Otherwise the '9/11 Truth Movement' just looks more and more like a bunch of fantasists and liars pursuing a nefarious political agenda.
Which I'm sure not all of them are.

That is not true at all. "FOR A THEORY TO HAVE LEGS" you think it needs to address *ALL* issues.
I'll give but one expample.
The theory of evolution. It does not address abiogenesis. Right now there is no real answer to that question.

But the principles of Ockham's razor apply to the F93 thing. Explaining what happened to F93, what happened to the crew and passengers, why the debris recovered looks so like a pulverized passenger jet following a recent high-speed impact if you contend that it is in fact not that - surely are at the core of any theory which wants to be taken seriously by more than a handful of fantasists determined to propagate a far-out theory. If you do not explain the core questions, and supply some convincing evidence, no normal, reasoning person is going to accept it are they?

I have a question for Killtown2
This is what it should of looked like.
Is this what the crash scene should have looked like?
Now, do you have an explanation as how the vertical tail made a faint "Wile E. Coyote" impression of itself in the grass, then went "poof"?

Would you expect anything different than an impression of itself? I can't comment on the tail section going "poof" based on a low-quality youtube video that was taken from several hundred feet in the air.

I'm not sure if the US geological survey is considered verifiable evidence, but I can't see how it wouldn't be.

If you haven't watched the whole thing yet, feel free to. Otherwise about two minutes in is where you want to start.
Umm, who even said that there is an imprint of a verticle stabilizer(tailfin) or even wings for that matter?

I can agree to a certain point, applying Occam's razor in regards to this incident, but there are still questions.
The wider problem of course concerning issues with 9/11 and some of the theories I feel don't need to have every single thing answered in order to make the theory viable.
It will depend somewhat on where you might see "evidence" and where I might see it, then that would be the dividing line. IF the evidence is circumstantial and seems pretty good to me, I don't have to fill in everything. IF the evidence to you is not clearly seen and seems not to be circumstantial then of course you would reject this.
My point being is that many debunkers are asking for every single thing to be addressed, what they should be doing is just refuting what they think is refutable based on the evidence as they see it.
