My point was that you do not get to decide which people's 9/11 stories are worth sharing. Was it on topic? YES. Was it against TOS? NO. All you did was berate someone for expressing how they feel about lost loved ones.
I thought you came here for a serious pursuit of the truth? I would love to look at your posts and think they come from and informed and intelligent person that I could really learn something from.
When someone tells you that they do not want to DEBATE you, and you tell them that they need to go away since they do not want to DISCUSS anything you want to discuss, it shows that you either cannot read, do not read, or do not know what certain English words me. This is important because you do post a lot. Do you want people to take those posts seriously or do you want people to think you still have no clue what the difference is between discussing and debating.
The explosion of the nature that we witnessed on television on 911, if it was due to jet fuel A that was "pouring down the elevator shafts", would have been contained to the shaft in a downward motion. For the type of explosion witnessed on 911, some type of compression is needed (AKA gas tank).
Please learn more about the nature of explosions.
Besides that, you never answered my question IN FULL.
How can that explosion happen, and then the same fuel BURN FOR THIRTY MINUTES.
It can't. It violates the second law of thermodynamics.

Baloney! By his own admission he believes in these conspiracy theories so strongly that to him, they're no longer theories to him, but reality. He's become such a zealous believer to the point where he perceives me, as someone who criticizes these conspiracy theories, as being a traitor and criminal.

Look, I sympathize with you. The "truthers" are, for the most part, incapable of using logic, reason, or even being rational when it comes to 9/11. Their response is emotional not rational, and from what I've seen few if any do any actual research. But that's to be expected really, because if they weren't like that, they wouldn't be "truthers"

You think you are funny don’t you?
I can prove that you are lying and you are enjoy it, by lumping ALL Truthers together, to say we can’t use logic, or even being rational when it come to 911. I can pull up thread after thread of everyone one of you so call debunkers including YOU to show how emotional and irrational you all get when it comes to discussing 911.
Your statement is false and was only to insult all posters who do not agree with your OS lies.
Try and do some real research into 911 and read what experts in their field have to say about your proven OS lies.

Do you mind if I sincerely ask you about your sources? I will anyway. Do you consider them factual sources or opinion pieces that kind of back up what you believe or some mix?

Yeah, it must really get frustrating that 'truthers' can read and G.O.D. along with many of his cohorts seem to have an issue with that. Please go into detail describing how emotional I got when reading the words actually written instead of just making them into something else in my head like dave did.
Your post makes no sense at all. I read the words written. I must be emotional. Dave cannot understand that he got all upset over something that was NEVER WRITTEN DOWN. Dave is the logical one. Enjoy your delusions.

Claim
Steven E. Jones and other so-called "Scholars for 9/11 Truth" have purported that the impact of aircraft hitting the World Trade Center and the resulting fires were insufficient to cause the collapse of the World Trade Center. They argue that pre-planted explosives must have been used to cause controlled demoltion and collapse of the World Trade Center twin towers.
Fact
* The collapse of the World Trade Center twin towers initiated where the planes hit the buildings. Controlled demolitions always are initiated at the bottom of a building, to take advantage of maximum gravity forces.
* If the World Trade Center collapsed due to controlled demolition, as the theory goes, the explosive charges would have had to survive the crash of airplanes into the buildings. (at ~500 miles per hour)
* When a controlled demolition occurs, you hear the very loud and very distinct sound of the charges going off. These will repeatedly go off, in a quick, regular pattern, for 10+ seconds prior to the structure collapsing. While some people heard what "sounded like an explosion" at the World Trade Center, this is not what they heard or described. Nor is any such sound of demolition charges going off heard in any videos of the collapse.
* The detonations in a controlled demolition go off in a very regular pattern, not at all like the random squibs seen on 9/11. Those squibs are the result of pockets of air (the building is ~70% air in volume) being collapsed, with pulverized gypsum (drywall) and other material being forced out.
* Blasting caps, detonating cord, and other such evidence were not found in the World Trade Center debris.
* If the World Trade Center collapsed due to controlled demolition, as the theory goes, the explosive charges would have had to survive the crash of airplanes into the buildings. (at ~500 miles per hour)

There is no flipping way I am "making them into something else in my head", so if you're attempting to claim he said or meant anything other than this then you are lying through your teeth.
