There's no one more bias, close-minded and one sided about this case than the believers. If you are to give a true honest opinion about Roswell, you need to not only read books/articles/videos that support the claims, but also the ones that don't.

Show us the physical item from this case that can be scientifically studied and proven not to be from earth and created by an alien race, and we'll believe. It's really that simple. We don't need any support system for this claim because after 65 years of stories, not one ounce of alien material has shown up. That's a 100% fact.

It annoys me because if you say you
dont believe the official story, then instantly people assume you believe that
it was et. Again, the de bunkers belief system

Ok, so by your logic, if someone had said in 1990 "Yeah, the government have got this big black V shaped aircraft, its invisible to radar, has no tail, you cant see one at any air bases and they dont officially exist because they are secret" and you would disregard this as fiction because he couldnt 'prove' it- and yet the first B2 Spirit flew in 1982.
People who described seeing the F117 were written off as fantasist nut-jobs until the USAAF officially introduced them to the public, but you would have had a hard time 'proving' one before TPTB were good and ready to let us all know about them.
Im sure therea all sorts of exotic technology in black programs that we dont know about, but that doesnt mean they dont exist- its called secret for a reason......

Not everyone here is a believer nor is anyone asking you to believe UFO/Alien story. I agree you should atleast consider both sides of the argument.

Agreed theyre not sceptics as they claim to be but debunkers and if you disagree with them then youre blind believer who ignores all the facts - thats my problem with some of the posters here. No physical evidence of crash or alien bodies we might as well throw the whole subject of ufology in the bin and not discuss at all.

Don't throw out the baby with the bathwater! First, believers don't require evidence, their minds are made up against logic. Skeptics and debunkers are necessary othewise we would be overrun with believers and someone has to keep them in line. Not all skeptics are the enemy, just the close-minded ones. The most famous closed-minded skeptic I can think of is Robert Sheaffer. He doesn't accept anything he hasn't experienced and, in reality, that's the way it should be. Otherwise your life would depend on hearsay and assumptions. Debunkers do a service for they will challenge claims and provide facts rather than allegations. I'm a a UFO-seeing skeptic and a debunker and you can find my successful debunking threads to understand. UFOs are real but they are not subject to debate because no one has anything to debate with. All you can do is compare sightings. Nothing more than that.

You don't come to the discussion table with a sound grasp of logic. All human aircraft can be identified no matter how fast or how high they fly. All new aircraft goes through the unexplained period because no one has seen them before. But human aircraft do not have the capability to do what real UFOs do. Your conspiracist brain is going to waste. You should have finished high school.

I think you have failed to grasp the point. Ectoplasm was asking about proof- I described a scenario where someone had seen some exotic technology, but couldnt 'prove' it, and asked if that were the case, do you then fail to believe them. You then agree with me with "All new aircraft goes through the unexplained period", but then start talking about what capabilities "real UFO's" have (what would those be then?).
You really are too funny with your generalizations and illogical spats. Finished high school? You have no idea of my qualifications, and you would be eating your words if you did....

I saw this post and I was hoping that it was from you. No, you have explained nothing about the Roswell mystery. You have, as usual, provided no evidence only your tired brand of skepticism.
Let me go through this again.
1. Our government released press that a flying disk had been captured. According to the man in the center of the press release, Lt. Haut, he believed that it was extraterrestrial. He saw 4' bodies with large heads. He put this in a death bed testimony. Also, the local mortician, Glenn Dennis, said he was asked for child's caskets, from the base.
All of this proves that something unusual crashed, piloted by small beings.
2. Marcel and others testified that the wreckage was of a material unknown to him. Memory metals and rigid Ibeams with strange hieroglyphics. It was seen by his son, and by a couple of dozen others. This was clearly NOT a weather balloon or anything of the sort. In your heart, you know marcel would not have mistaken this material for a balloon. That is silly.
3. The memo held by Ramey is the debris photo is very telling. While it is impossible to make all of it out, phrases like "aviators of the disk" and "balloon PR" jump off the page.
4. The silly Mogel cover, and the later "case closed" on the alien bodies is over the top silliness by the military and government. These dummies were dropped in the 1950s, not in 1947, and this explains what people saw? Wow, I have some land for you if you buy that.
I am not buying the silliness that you are posting here "The Shreck". Roswell remains unexplained, but clearly leans to the ET/ED hypothesis.
