Was glad to see how Mr. Trump handled the protesters last night, letting security take care of the problem without any inflammatory comments. Now we can listen to what he has to say without turning some people off by his "politically incorrect" banter. When watching the rallies, I have been turning away and losing interest at those points. Way to go , Donald.

What kind of a question is that? What kind of a man doesn't eats raccoons? They are the ones ya got to worry about!".....
....So when the poster says "I haven't seen any evidence that would suggest otherwise"...regarding the completely unprecedented structural failure of Building 7....not to mention the Twin Towers....sort of gives me some pause...no evidence...My gorsch! The dern thang fell at free fall speed! What more to you need? There's no fire on earth that does that!
Not to mention all the videos showing police backing people away, saying, "it's gonna come down, it's gonna come down!" How did they know the "fire" was going to simultaneously take out all the foundational support for the entire building!
And then Silverstein's statement about making the decision to "pull it" on National TV...I mean what more do you need? So when a poster says there's NO EVIDENCE, no amount of thick skin is going to help THAT!

The other book I'd recommend is The Looming Tower by Lawrence Wright. It won a Pulitzer Prize and examined in great detail the men who shaped the 9-11 attacks.
There are Holocaust deniers, people who believe the moon landing took place in a Hollywood sound stage, anti-vaxxers, flat earthers (rapper B.o.B), birthers, people who are promoting the idea many of the mass shootings are hoaxes perpetrated by the anti-gun crowd, and others. The trick is knowing when they have equally legitimate "facts" and when they are simply wrong.

Bringing up the Holocaust and the moon landing...I really don't find any comparison. Nobody is saying (who is sane) that 9-11 didn't happen, although I'm sure your reply will be that some fringe 9-11 wackos think it was a hologram and not a real plane. Please don't go there. That's not what I'm talking about.
I'd like to know if the book you mention delves into some of the stuff these guys talk about :
http://www.ae911truth.org/
Actually, let's carry this on another thread...this discussion has no place in this thread...there are plenty of 9-11 threads in off-topic.

CLASSIC Drumpf! There is nothing, absolutely nothing, that this blowhard carnival barker & huckster won't gin up, to attempt to gain an advantage. Everything he says needs to be fed through the bullshit, truther, machine! |
Nothing makes me smile wider than Trump pissing a Canadian off.

STOP WITH THE 9-11 stuff in this thread. It's OFF-TOPIC. Let's find another thread or create a new one if you really want to keep talking about it.

You should see what some of these countries also think about Obama. They're pretty much used to American buffoonery (or worse) after the last two presidents, so they can sleep easy and so can you.

Thanks to the US, Canada's prime minister hasn't much to worry about, he can spend his time cuddling pandas.

I think it was a G.W. Bush fundraiser and money raiser who made that idiotic statement.
Yes, woodtoo, getting the votes and being popular is what it is all about ... except ...
we're talking about the Republican Party ( GOP, 1856-2016, RIP).
Many of these clowns are already on record of saying they would rather vote for Hillary or not vote at all than support Donald Trump (or Ted Cruz too).

They make fun of Trump, and they just elected Justin Bieber Prime Minister.

In the context of the duopoly racket and consolidation of control and power we have willingly surrendered ourselves to, this should be one of the least surprising revelations in modern politics.
