Soin fact what you're doing is attempting to smear people. Nice.
That's because there is no thing as a "gov't truster" since I have yet to meet anyone who trusts everything the gov't says or does, especially after everyone is seeing what's going in Washington over the debt ceiling limit now, nor is there any such thing as an "official story" as all those details comes from the interviews of many, many eyewitness accounts of people who were directly and indirectly involved.
This is just idiotic conspiracy monger propaganda to get these truthers to swallow their abject paranoia without thinking.

Yes, it is. Since I've been here, I've seen numerous posts directed at me personally, saying that I was a punk, that I was evil, and that they hoped I died from a disease. One person even said "sooner or later I was going to get what's coming to me". I've even had one guy forge my handle and post pornographic posts in my name in an effort to "get me". Then, there was the guy who uses an avatar of someone wearing an "investigate 9/11"
T-shirt...while holding an AK-47. What the heck is *that* supposed to mean?
As for me, I'm an American and I feel perfectly comfortable discussing 9/11...namely, becuase I don't need to resort to accusing anyone of being a secret gov't disinformation agent to rationalize why what I'm saying is true like you conspiracy people do. Just HOW many times did you conspiracy people smear that Taxi cab driver by the Pentagon and accuse him of being "involved in the coverup", exactly?
prop·a·gan·da
[prop-uh-gan-duh]
Show IPA –noun
1. information, ideas, or rumors deliberately spread widely to help or harm a person, group, movement, institution, nation, etc.
2. the deliberate spreading of such information, rumors, etc.
3. the particular doctrines or principles propagated by an organization or movement.
It's easier for them to believe the billions of people who disagree with them are either mindless trusters in the gov't or really some secret gov't disinformation agent, rather than consider the possibility their conspiracy theories are rubbish.
The only "truster" I'm seeing anywhere are the conspiracy theorists for even taking such idiotic claims seriously.
Really, now, someone's gotta be really, REALLY trusting in everything those damned fool conspiracy sites say to actually believe "holograms planes" and "lasers from outer space" are real.
The gov't is notorious for NOT wanting to admit their incompetence, which is the whole reason why noone was punished for their incompetence during 9/11- noone in their right mind is going to come forward and admit their incompetence caused 3000 people to get killed.
On the other hand your conspiracy stories are a meme as you all but admit they cannot exist without the unregulated freedom that allow con artists and crackpots on the internet to push out this drivel unfettered.
I'll wager anything that you yourself were suckered into this truther movement by going to Prison Planet, watching Loose Change, or one of any number of Internet mediums. Do I win my bet?
When you conspiracy people fall so much in love with your conspiracy stories that you're even starting to believe gov't incompetence is an intentional orchestrated act, it's time for you people to turn off the computer and go outside for some fresh air.
Look at the website for AE911Truth. Where do they talk about the distribution of steel and concrete. I e-mailed Richard Gage about that in 2007 and asked him in Chicago in 2008.

I'm talking to a truster now. Why do you trust the debate on the "debt ceiling" is genuine? Do you really think they'll not fund their own jobs? Why doesn't any side suggest closing a few hundred military bases?
You are incapable of posting anything without slinging pejoratives and then you whine about how unfairly you're treated:
You say I'm posting "conspiracy monger propaganda". For the information of the readers, here's a definition of propaganda:
1. information, ideas, or rumors deliberately spread widely to help or harm a person, group, movement, institution, nation, etc
2. the deliberate spreading of such information, rumors, etc. .
"Billions". Have you conducted a poll? Speaking only for myself, as I always do, I don't think you're mindless and you're not really that secret. I have personally spent a lot of time and effort posting very good reasons for my suspicions, but all you and your compatriots do is call us idiots, damned fools, and then claim to speak for the rest of the world.
I can tell a propagandist by his insistence to include claims I have never made, wild claims likely made by other propagandists in an attempt to smear the whole truth movement by association.
I'm sure I'm a damned fool for noticing that too.

That is completely untrue and you know that. If you haven’t read their technical papers on AE911Truth on the subject, then you have no business making false claims.
Many of you OS supporters can’t debunk the proven science, so instead some of you make up fallacies in hoping newbies on ATS do not research your opinions, and are fooled into believing in more of the OS myths.
Karl - you're right!
Please post this on our newly organized forum next week!!
Thank you! Richard

To: [email protected] Subject: Distribution of Mass
Name: Karl Smithe
Comment: On page 3 of his ENERGY TRANSFER IN THE WTC COLLAPSE, F.R.Greening makes a couple of interestingly dumb mistakes. He says he divides the total mass of the WTC by 110. Doesn't the total mass include the 6 basements? So shouldn't he be dividing by 116.
But even worse, isn't the WTC going to be bottom heavy because every floor must support all of the floors above? Doesn't that mean a lot more mass at the bottom? So averaging that mass shifts the mass upwards. He is saying the upper floors are much heavier than they actually were so that would mean a lot more potential energy would go into the collapse therefore his computations are WRONG.
This original link no longer works: 9/11 & when to Average
This is the same: 9/11 & when to Average
After all of these years shouldn't the experts be able to tell us the tons of steel and tons of concrete that were on every level? Didn't they have to figure that out to design the building in the 60's?
psikey
What are you accusing me of saying that isn't true.
Where do they talk about the distribution of steel and concrete.
Who do you think is going to read every one of their papers?
How can the distributions of steel and concrete not be important?
Then why isn't it prominent on their website?
Why should we have to look for fine print?
Are they interested in PUBLICLY SOLVING the problem or keeping debate going?
Are you saying I didn't email Gage in 2007 or talk to him in 2008?

It’s there you haven’t bother to research their website and I am not here to hold your hand and do your research for you.

The fact is some of you 911 OS supporters lump all Truthers or anyone who dares to speaks out against the OS of 911 or has a different opinion than a very few of you and the fact is very few of you compare all Truthers to be die hard staunch supporters of Alex Jones Infowars, Dylan Avery, Richard Gage and so on, meaning that all Truthers are lairs and want to believe in conspiracy theories because they are all mindless idiots or uneducated misguided people who cannot think for themselves and need to pay more attention to main stream News for the truth as you have demonstrated.
Sorry to tell you, most of us do not worship our government as Gods, and most of us know what liars they are, so who are you trying to appeal to?

Exactly, so it is about understanding Grade School Newtonian Physics for yourself and any organization like AE911Truth should be promoting that and emphasizing the information necessary to do the physics. AE911Truth seems to be promoting AE911Truth.

Wow! Now its Grade School Newtonian Physics! Not too long ago it was high school physics! Boy oh boy, this has just got simpler and simpler and simpler, huh? But you still can't be bothered to actually read anything though, huh? God forbid you should make an effort.
Ward, A. (1986). Introducing the topic of energy in the fifth grade.
The Third International Mathematics and Science Study (TIMSS) 1999 Report (ISC, 2000) listed benchmarks for physics concepts and skills (Table 1) for Grade 8 students (13 years old) from 38 countries, based on achievement test results in physics items. Benchmarks were identified for top 10%, upper 25%, 50%, and lower 25% levels of the students according to their total score in the test. A concept/skill is anchored at a level if at least 65% of the students at this level and less than 50% of the students at the next lower level correctly answered the item testing the concept/skill.
I have said many times that you truthers aren't the problem, per se. The problem is that these damned fool conspiracy websites
are so seductive in their presentation of their abject paranoia that it makes perfect sense to you how there's no way Islamic fundamentalists would ever want to kill innocent people
and how it makes perfect sense to you how the gov't launched mocked up planes to hit the towers
to cover up secretly planted super explosives used as controlled demolitions,
along with shooting a cruise missile at the Pentagon
along with faking a crash site out in the middle of nowhere for no reason,
along with manufactured evidence, faked photographs and television video,
and 100,000 secret disinformation agents planted throughout all walks of life pretending to see things that never happened
That's not even counting the really fringe claims like hologram planes, lasers from outer space, and shape shifting alien lizards.
The only character flaw I'm seeing you people commit is that you steadfastly refuse to hold your own conspiracy claims up to the exact same stringent level of critical analysis that you do the 9/11 commission report.
Sorry to tell you, most of us do not worship our government as Gods, and most of us know what liars they are, so who are you trying to appeal to?
This may come as a big shock to you, but denouncing the gov't as a pack of liars and denouncing the conspiracy movement as being based entirely upon unreasonable abject paranoia are NOT mutually exclusive.
I would strongly suggest that you incorporate the fact into your mythos before continuing any further with this venue,
lest you wind up becoming the very mindless propaganda spewing robot you insist you haven't turned into.

Yes and you always say that Truthers are the problem.
No one on ATS has never made that claim, however the radical fundamentalists that you speak of could never carry out 911 the way it was done and you know that.
What makes perfect sense is that the government refuses to give any real information or evidence to prove their fairytales true about the alleged planes. Yet you take the government word as the Holy Grail as if they have nothing to hide, after they have been caught changing their fairytales repeatedly and stumbling over their lies. If you deny that then you are lying to yourself
Fact is the impact hole at the pentagon was too small.
No evidence to prove a plane hit the pentagon, nothing, zilch, just the government telling a story, is there any truth to it? The fact is I haven’t seen any real evidence that backs their claims
