What's your point? Incredulity? Welcome to the mirror.
Tu quoque. Thanks for exposing your own insecurities with your belief.
You're welcome! But why? I should be thanking you.

9-11, give me a break.

Whether it does or not is open to conjecture.
Full disclosure: I think JFK was killed by a conspiracy. But it happened before I was born, so I don't have any skin in the game.
Yeah, I mean I don't think anyone is arguing that our government isn't capable of conspiring. The question is, does it make any sense in this particular scenario, and where is the evidence? Unfortunately for truthers, I don't think there is anything controversial here unless you really, really want there to be.

I thought that URL said "rape vault" at first. I was like 'omg, wuuut?!'

Oh please.
I simply don't trust the government, and with good reason.
As I stated earlier, the CIA was involved in drug trafficking in the 1980's, that is not conspiracy theory, it is conspiracy FACT. During this time, the same administration was waging a war on drugs. THIS impacted more lives than the 3000 or so that died on 9/11.
So nothing is far fetched when it comes to what the government is willing to to it's people.
Your problem is evidence, Huggy. Bring evidence of government involvement in the attacks. Not speculation, not shoulda-coulda-wouldas, skip the conjecture, I'd like a hot dog, hold the hypotheticals, and topped with facts and ketchup, thanks.

Thanks for your service.
"Of course, everyone will claim they respect someone who tries to speak the truth, but in reality, this is a rare quality. Most respect those who speak truths they agree with, and their respect for the speaking only extends as far as their realm of personal agreement. It is less common, almost to the point of becoming a saintly virtue, that someone truly respects and loves the truth seeker, even when their conclusions differ wildly."
