No, They're Not Paranoid
One of the things that annoys me about truthers, admittedly it is a pretty long list, is how they think they are some sort of mix between Andrei Sakharov and Nelson Mandela because they burned a DVD of Loose Change once when they were in high school. In the wake of the alleged bomb threats against Uncle Fetzer, Alex Jones' Infowars site runs with this theme. My favorite bit:
David Ray Griffin, the world’s leading voice of 9/11 truth, suffered a partially-disabling stroke in the summer of 2010. While he has recovered sufficiently to continue to write and research, the stroke left him with a slight aphasia that has ended his career as a prolific public speaker.
Dr. Bob Bowman, the former head of Star Wars under two US presidents, has had his 9/11 truth efforts slowed by his struggle with cancer.
Even more tragically, the most prestigious scientist ever to take up the cause of 9/11 truth, Lynn Margulis, died of a stroke November 22, 2011. When I last spoke to Lynn, less than a year before her death, she told me she did not want to speak publicly about 9/11 any more, because “politics is too dangerous.” She sounded scared – like someone had warned or threatened her.
Steven Jones, the physics professor who was forced out of Brigham Young University for researching the demolition of the World Trade Center, was warned to stop by a “connected” colleague. Jones did the right thing: he immediately went public about the apparent threat.
Richard Gage, the founder of Architects and Engineers for 9/11 Truth, may have been attacked by the type of EMF or microwave weapon described by Ruppert and Belitsos. In the summer of 2009, in Washington, DC, Gage suddenly suffered vertigo and hearing loss. Activist colleagues who were present suspect some kind of covert attack. Today, Gage still suffers from the after-effects: partial loss of hearing in one ear.
Uhh, yeah, David Ray Griffin is over 70, while Robert Bowman is pushing 80. Lynn Margulis passed away at the age of 73. What are the odds that they might have some health problems. Geez, is the CIA so incompetent that it takes them over a decade to knock off a couple of old men? And Richard Gage, supposedly the leader of this movement of architects and engineers who are going to bring down the New World Order, does he get hit by a bus? No, he loses his hearing, slightly.
If these people want to know what happens to actual dissidents or people who try and expose the truth for real, look up Aung San Suu Kyi or Anna Politkosvkaya

James, your erroneous suggestion that Anna Politkosvkaya was murdered by the Russian mafia at the direction of certain elements connected to Uncle Vlad is incomplete, unscientific and unbelievable. Everyone knows that the Russian mafia and Uncle Vlad had no part in the unfortunate demise of Anna Politkosvkaya, she merely ran into a bullet. It happens all the time--ask my Uncle Mickey.
Why do youse refuse to learn?
Silly gurl.
Internet--the final frontier. The gobbledegook you're about to read are the lies and obsessions of The Goat Fucker's Advocate. My ten-year mission: to explore new methods of deception; to seek out and formulate new logical fallacies; to boldly go where no Internet troll has gone before.
Don't quit your day job.

Brian, what do you know about day jobs? You're an unemployed janitor who lives with his parents.

Ian, you lie and lie and lie. I don't have "parents." I was raised by crocodiles -- and we eat our young. Recall, I have a brain and a penis, and only enough blood to run one at a time.
Your erroneous belief that my career as a "maintenance engineer" qualifies me to do janitorial work exposes your crippled epistemology.

Look, it's Clink and Clunk, the Fappit Brothers! They don't know they're not smart enough to be funny.
They don't know enough about 9/11 to have any intelligent observations, but who needs knowledge when you've got opinions?

My, such squealing!
It's hilarious that a pathetic liar and lunatic who believes in magic thermite elves thinks OTHER people don't know anything about 9/11.
Yes, you're pretty pathetic, Ian.
Poor Brian. I've humiliated him again. He has no evidence for his delusional beliefs about 9/11, so all he can do is babble hysterically whenever we make fun of him.
You should really seek professional help, Brian. Mental illness is no joke.
Ian, I have no delusional beliefs about 9/11. All of my beliefs about 9/11 are facts.
You, on the other hand, keep expounding obvious lies about 9/11. I doubt you can possibly be dumb enough to believe what you post, but if you are, then your beliefs are delusions.
"Lynn Margulis, died of a stroke November 22, 2011. ..."
Coincidence? Irony?
It took them 11 years do cobble together a semi-death list? The JFK folks had their up and running by 1971.
The Microwave death beam thing is a nice touch.
Offtopic -- portrait of the nutbar as a young man. Scratching my head about what his ambition is supposed to mean.
Probably a religious thing, which fits right into his conspiracy theories of course.
Jones grew up in Bellevue. On behalf of the entire Puget Sound area, I apologize. We made it up to you with Bill Gate and Paul Allen.
It's nice of you to apologize, but you forgot to include yourself in your apology.
BTW, I don't know who the heck "Bill Gate" is but if you mean Gates, that's not really something to be proud of.

Stallman fanboy detected.
Yeah, as soon as you revolutionize an industry and become the world's biggest philanthropist, let me know.
the world's biggest philanthropist
Heh. Which reminds me...
UNIX Rules. Bill Gates is a poseur.
"...A lot of immigrants look up to Bill Gates as proof that the American Dream is achievable by anyone. They don't seem to realize that William Henry Gates III comes from one of the wealthiest families in the Pacific Northwest (see "How to Become As Rich As Bill Gates"). Another way to look at this is that the birth of Jennifer Katherine Gates on April 28, 1996 proved that America is still a country where anyone, regardless of race, creed, color, or software quality, can go from having a rich white Anglo-Saxon Protestant daddy to being a rich white Anglo-Saxon Protestant daddy." -- Dr. Philip Greenspun, professor of computer science, MIT, Why Bill Gates is Richer than You.
"...Lesson 1: Choose Your Grandparents Carefully...Lesson 2: Choose Your Parents Carefully...Lesson 3: Acquire Research Results by Hiring and Buying...Lesson 4: Let Other People Do the Programming...Lesson 5: Train your new CEO...Lesson 6: Focus on Profit...Lesson 7: Let the Venture Capitalists Schmooze Wall Street...Lesson 8: Self-Esteem is Not Job 1...William Henry Gates III made his best decision on October 28, 1955, the night he was born. He chose J.W. Maxwell as his great-grandfather. Maxwell founded Seattle's National City Bank in 1906. His son, James Willard Maxwell was also a banker and established a million-dollar trust fund for William (Bill) Henry Gates III...William Henry Gates, Jr. and Mary Maxwell were among Seattle's social and financial elite. Bill Gates, Jr. was a prominent corporate lawyer while Mary Maxwell was a board member of First Interstate Bank and Pacific Northwest Bell. She was also on the national board of United Way, along with John Opel, the chief executive officer of IBM who approved the inclusion of MS/DOS with the original IBM PC." -- Dr. Philip Greenspun, professor of computer science, MIT, How to Become As Rich As Bill Gates
Bill's key to success? His mommy was deeply connected to IBM's CEO, who, as it turns out, just happened to make the decision to include MS-DOS (a train wreck of an OS) with the IBM personal computer. Talk about "born on third base and got a limo ride to home."
More to the point: Only an idiot (or a jackass who never took a course in OS design) would insist on integrating a registry into a modern operating system.
So what's your excuse, Mr. Bill?
"...What about charity? There are two ways to look at this. One is that Bill Gates is directly involved in managing his charitable foundation. So he still controls the money, though of course it will be used only for certain kinds of purposes. If you were a real cynic you might note that Bill's charitable inclinations remained, uh, undiscovered until the Federal Government began to file anti-trust lawsuits. You would then see his charitable contributions as investments in the maintenance of Microsoft's monopoly and not reductions in wealth." -- Dr. Philip Greenspun, professor of computer science, MIT, Bill Gates Personal Wealth Clock.
I guess that makes me a cynic.

Gates's software was slow, bloated, buggy, self-corrupting, it spent its cycles drawing pictures of the work instead of letting you work--and it was way, way, way overpriced. Because it demanded ever faster processors and ever more RAM, it made computing much more expensive than it needed to be, and thus kept computers out of reach of the poor.
Though Gates has tried to buy prestige in the area by making large contributions to Stanford, everybody knows his effect was positively anti-innovational, he engaged in extremely predatory practices, he ruined a good many promising entrepreneurs and he destroyed a mountain of better mousetraps. He is pretty much universally despised in Silicon Valley.
Well, whatever one thinks of Gates, the Puget Sound area also gave us Pearl Jam, led by a guy who was most certainly not from an affluent background.
But, as all of this is decidedly off-topic, I encourage you all to get back to the usual fruitless back-and-forth with Brian Good, the one-man traveling troll circus.
Oh, it's generally worthwhile to point out that 273 of the 9/11 widows' 300 questions remain unanswered, and give Skidmark a chance to claim the widows don't exist.

The widows exist, they just have no questions, which is why nobody cares about the widows except for a mentally ill unemployed janitor who lives with his parents and believes in magic thermite elves.

Brian can't help himself because of his mental illness. Just as John Hinckley thought he would win Jodie Foster by shooting Reagan, Brian thinks posting dumbspam at this blog will win him one of the widows.
Unfortunately, Brian has been humiliated by people on this blog so much that he really doesn't do the stuff that made him so entertaining in the past, like speculating that the US would invade Canada, or that the WTC was built with explosives already in place. He also doesn't call us "girls" anymore.
Finally after all these years of proclaiming that the widows did not exist, that they were not widows, that they were invisible, Skidmark finally admits that they exist.
That is progress. Perhaps some day he will be competent enough to recognize that if they had 300 questions, and only got 27 answers, that leaves 273 questions unanswered.

Ian, your erroneous belief that a world-class Al Qaeda apologist and troll of my caliber is somehow above ad hominem arguments is at odds with recent history and only serves to expose your crippled epistemology. Why just last week I called my dad a gurl. Dad took offense to being called a gurl. He explained that his choice of apparel for the day, a chiffon summer dress and Ferragamo pumps, doesn't make him a "gurl." He also explained that I should never wear my lime green Gucci purse with my backless burgundy gown. Clash, clash, clash!
Why do youse refuse to learn?

I didn't say the widows weren't invisible. You make up your facts.
That is progress. Perhaps some day he will be competent enough to recognize that if they had 300 questions, and only got 27 answers, that leaves 273 questions unanswered.
Yes, IF they had 300 questions and got 27 answered, that would be 273 unanswered. Of course, they had zero questions, and thus got zero answers, and this is something that does not interest anyone except you, because you're a failed janitor, liar, and lunatic who believes in magic thermite elves.
And Jimi, and Kurt and the Wilson sisters, of course.
