Hello ATS, I have waited and watched a couple year's I find myself coming here for many many subjec

I will not bore you with my history or my life lessons.....I will say that the country I grew up in, the world I grew up in has changed so much as we all know. The changes are all around us and the biggest threat to our country is the problem in asking....WHY? If you ask this today you are branded a conspiracy theorist, OR that it is unpatriotic. Our greatest strength in the past is our ability to challenge the information we are given, in fact... our hero's of the past fought for that right. I feel the person who questions WHY is asking because they have done some DEEPER searching and was led to the question. Those who always say " aww its just like the year 2000" or " the environment is just doing what it did 100 yrs ago, you will believe anything" well folks it seems to me they are the ones who believe in anything on the news and stay in a box of darkness. So I came here to discuss things with others who actually research or have some knowledge on a subject before they put their thoughts down that argues a point. In America, we need to remember we have been lied to before, and sent to a war that killed 56,000 of us. We need to challenge the each other and for GODS sake let us be honest with each other. Money in the political world serves corporations not Americans, so until money is not the factor that makes decisions we must assume they need to be looked at. Thanks for allowing me to a place to come when I start believing the bull# because it wouldn't take long before I would start thinking less and accepting more...

Sorry ATS...and excuse my gram mer...I try, but I am stretched a bit with my kids tonight..I promise to try a bit harder..lol

Our greatest strength in the past is our ability to challenge the information we are given

Then my first challenge to you is who is this "ATP" and why are you telling them "Hello"?

Just kidding, typos get the best of us, the fact you nailed your first one on your intro post and typo'd the site acronym, well, you're well on your way!!

Welcome to ATS, enjoy the show

ETA: Even better, you caught it ...you can click on edit for the next couple of hours and edit your title and post in most any thread, can't say for sure if one can do so in an intro thread (been a while) but it's worth a look.

AboveTopSecret is much like a theme park with many, many rides, with that said...
Here's a few thoughts before getting onto any one of the 1000's of topical rides at Above Top Secret, also known as ATS, the world's largest Civil & Unique Discussion Community.

*** Please be at least this tall to get on any of the rides, (Johnny stretches his arm outward), and act like an 'civil' adult. This will save you a lot of future stress, frustration and possible action by one of your friendly neighborhood Mods!

*** Please remember that some members are very passionate and vocal depending on what ride your on. Before getting on a ride, you should be mentally fit, emotionally stable and have a strong stomach for theories, conjecture, research and evidence presented that may be contrary to your own.

*** Please be "open-minded" enough to understand that sometimes the ride isn't always what you might think or expect. At times, you may learn something new and 'out-of-the-box' before you get off the ride, this is a natural and normal phenomena.

*** Please note that at times the ride gets overly-heated and "it's strongly suggested" to get off the ride to regroup one's thoughts before continuing. This will also help guarantee that the ride will move forward without getting derailed or explode into a fiery trashbin.

*** Please have fun! Be aware if you act in an uncivil-like manner, use profanity, troll, intentionally spread a hoax and/or get verbally abusive, you will be removed off the ride by a Moderator. This is for your safety, & also for those both young and old on the ride with you.

So buckle up, keep your arms within the ride's comfort zone, have fun and "Deny Ignorance"...!
