Ok, you come off here as supporting Rexx's 'research.' Did you follow any of his links supporting his arguements? I did. I really tried to follow the direction of his almost-entirely-web-based 'research.'

Many of the video clips were so short as to be out of context..this is interviews with 9/11 survivors and work crews. I did some more searching and found the entire clips, which made more sense than the shortened clips. It also showed how manipulative these conspiracy types can be.

Even the long lecture clips with some seemingly convincing arguements have counterpoint websites that show how misleading the 'lecturer' is being.

I can't help but think that any one of these stories would be a huge scoop for the media outlet that could prove it....

Care to give an example? I suspect you're confusing claims for evidence, but without a specific example
I can't know.



Extraordinary claims require extraordinary evidence. If it fails to prove it's case beyond a reasonable
doubt then it hasn't proven it's case.



Like?



He became so obsessed with it he refused to even question things. When others did, he couldn't understand.
Strange reflection of counter-culture in general, really.



I tried, they did a very poor job of supporting their claims. Basically it was supporting a claim with another
unsubstantiated claim, and repeating that over and over like a massive web of tangents that eventually cycle
right back to the original claim. Circular logic taken to a complex extreme.

I've always found it ironic that some of the supposedly smartest people in the world fall for the dumbest of
stuff.

Okay guys... Really, I'd rather not get into this at the moment. There is a LOT of information, and as someone pointed out it's not easy sorting truth from lies. If I get into this it could easily eat up all my time. If you want, start a new thread so we don't tick off Proton, and I'll get into it when I've got nothing better to do.

It sounds like maybe I'm wrong, and that you people might have looked deeper than I thought. If that's true, e.g. Crosby if you've researched as thoroughly as you claim then I will be very interested to see the refutations you found, but every time I look into these issues I get depressed, and I'd rather not start my weekend off that way.

If nobody else starts a new thread then I'll probably do it myself later this weekend, because really I'd like nothing better than to find out that the people in power are not as corrupt as I think they are.

I can only remember 2 things that he had any depth on, the federal reserve and the income tax. Both of which I disproved in the thread. What are you referring to?

Actually, I don't remember. I thought there were a lot more than just two things; I'm probably getting his thread confused with another somewhere else. (edit: I'm really not that familiar with Rexx's argument per se - maybe he didn't make a convincing argument but I had previously researched most of the stuff he was talking about )

Like I said, I don't feel like thinking about it right now. When I do feel like it, I'll go read the thread again and read all your stuff and any referenced links and then we'll talk again.

I prolly should not have brought it up in the first place, except at least now I'll look back into it and if you guys are right and I'm wrong then eventually I'll find out, which will be a very good thing.
