Because they're brains are inferior they have to look for ways to take what happens in the world and put it in the hands of mysterious beings. They're unable to process basic information so it scares them into thinking they and everyone is being controlled. It's a remarkable thing if you think about it, adolescent brains in the body of full grown adults.

    Precisely my point. I couldn't have made it any better. You can't fathom there are fuckups and mistakes. Furthermore that link says what it reports only 'implies' a wronging and that no conclusions can be drawn from the investigation. Thank you for illustrating to a T what I was referring to.

    Trust is earned and this is why we question alternative motives, media in general is untrustworthy. It has a double standard to, the public officials tell you not to believe the media, and talk stations yet when a event happens, the big business news stations cover it and everyone's fixed on what Nancy grace has to say about it. They, themselves will say just because Anderson cooper said something doesn't make it true.

    There is sites like the Drudge report, that are good alternatives for news at least better then most, there will always be a bias and a fight for control over information and how it's spun. Yes, I do question motives when necessary.

    In each case, if the newly examined votes had been allowed to count in the November election, Mr Gore would have won Florida's 21 electoral college votes by a narrow majority and he, not Mr Bush, would be the president. Instead, Mr Bush officially carried Florida by 537 votes after recounts were stopped.
    In spite of the findings, no legal challenge to the Florida result is possible in the light of the US supreme court's 5-4 ruling in December to hand the state to Mr Bush. But the revelations will continue to cast a cloud, to put it mildly, over the democratic legitimacy of Mr Bush's election.




    Yes, all other states paid top dollar for this to be done properly and in a timely manner, they did so; Except for one state, florida made a boo boo ... No biggie right, we are only talking the leader of our country ... Let's just stop the recount and hand it over to bush...it was all a accident ... A mistake ..lol

    Petunia, I clearly told another person who mentioned several other incidents like 911, sandy hook etc. it appeared in those incidents he mentioned that shenanigans may be involved, but i then said to keep this in context of what was being discussed (Virginia new crew shooting) that i would keep my thoughts on this topic, i then spelled the anomalies out for or against.

    In 1967, the CIA Created the Label "Conspiracy Theorists" ... to Attack Anyone Who Ch

    Conspiracy Theorists USED TO Be Accepted As Normal

    Democracy and free market capitalism were founded on conspiracy theories.
    The Magna Carta, the Constitution and Declaration of Independence and other founding Western documents were based on conspiracy theories. Greek democracy and free market capitalism were also based on conspiracy theories.
    But those were the bad old days …Things have now changed.
    The CIA Coined the Term Conspiracy Theorist In 1967

    That all changed in the 1960s.
    Specifically, in April 1967, the CIA wrote a dispatch which coined the term “conspiracy theories” … and recommended methods for discrediting such theories. The dispatch was marked “psych” – short for “psychological operations” or disinformation – and “CS” for the CIA’s “Clandestine Services” unit.
    The dispatch was produced in responses to a Freedom of Information Act request by the New York Times in 1976.

It's sad we have to take the humanity out of it to even question such a thing, but crisis actors are a real thing, disgusting deception has a green light, so being vigilante and watchful good, paranoia bad...and I'm not judging him, I'm just saying I would act completely different.

    Do you believe Vester Flanagan, Alison Parker, and Adam Ward are actually alive, and hiding in some underground basement where all hoax doers go?

    This is an interesting article. Tim Gardner, the husband of Vicki Gardner, says he doesn't blame guns for what happened. Instead he just blamed the perpetrator. If this was an elaborate scheme to further the "ban of guns", someone didn't tell this guy.

    So did racism, so did not allowing women to vote, blood letting to get rid of infection, getting to the airport 10 minutes before your flight, smoking on flights, no seatbelts, qualuudes , and so much more

    But we take the best (hopefully) and move forward, leaving the rest behind. That's why everything above is only read about in history books

    Same with conspiracy theorists

    Sad thing these days, the conspiracists seemingly just regurgitate someone elses work without grasping the concept themselves. We have a lot of lazy conspiracy theorists these days.

    I'm sure you know this but in science, a theory is almost equivalent to a law. Like Newtons first law, well it's not far ahead (if at all) a theory. Gravity is generally considered a theory of relativity, yes, a THEORY. When was the last time gravity failed you? That just shows how strong a theory is considered in science, and should be considered. I know for a fact that Sour knows this.

    Nowadays though we have theories that two people that get shot on live TV, documented by GoPro camera and witnessed, is a conspiracy? This certainly doesn't meet the standard that science has set.

    Conspiracy theories are fine and once proven, they turn into conspiracies, which we all know exist. But there's just no facts in these theories, no evidence other than fringe circumstantial, and in many cases there are dead bodies that disprove the theory talk. Then the one in a million happening that turns out to be somewhat scandoulous, it justifies everything in peoples minds. And many people can't get past the idea that just because a scandal or a conspiracy happened in the past, it has nothing to do with the next event. Nor any event after that.

    Comprehend is easy when your not trying to assert your agenda first and point fingers.

    Say the shooting is real, good evidence suggest it is/was. The conspiracy maybe the agenda behind the crime.
    Does that make any sense? Do you know who said: "Don't let a good crisis go to waste"?

    Even when approached with EVIDENCE the coining term of a "Conspiracy theorist" is given, ya just don't get it…


    Good-luck

    It is beyond embarrassing to watch you continue to struggle with even the most basic of thoughts. I can't very well sit here and watch what I assume is a grown man with the brain intellect of a 7 year old continue to embarrass themselves. I hope your handler is keeping an eye on you, whatever form of mental retardation you have, it has a tight grip on you. There is someone who can help but you won't find them here. I see your screams of help, hopefully someone comes to the rescue.

    If you're saying there was a political agenda prior to the shooting, I would say prove it. Otherwise, it's means nothing.

    If you're saying certain people are using this tragedy to further their agenda, I would agree that this is a more likely than anything. But the reality, we haven't seen this yet. I posted recently, Obama has done impressively little when it comes to gun control/reform. But he did say it's his biggest regret. I think he said that to please the left, and is using gun reform as a bargaining chip with the right. He probably owns a few uzi's himself, he's from Chi-Town.

    As for not letting a good crisis go to waste, I get it. A lot of profiteers make a lot of money off of crises, this is easy to see and it's not just political. As far as politics, we see it all the time. I just haven't seen it yet with gun reform, even after Sandy Hook. Only media speculation.

    If some of you like conspiracies, the big one should be.......UFO's.

    Our govt has stopped publically investigating them, airline pilots (who see the most) are not allowed to discuss
    to anyone after reporting or lose their job. Of those normal people who did see them are not allowed to talk about
    it for 30 years after the "men in black" have visited them for fear of being eliminated.

    Just sayin'.
