London Calling! Arthur's here!

Arthur F here, in London UK, a 35 year old family man.

I thought I'd do a BIG profile because I will get carried away here at times and it helps to know where I'm coming from.

Love the site, got her via that UFO Youtube thread... I like the way stuff is debated here and hope to add to it all positively.

I am not an expert in anything in particular to do with conspiracies, nor do I work for any government agencies, but I am a video image specialist and have worked for many years in newsrooms and news facilities. I have seen a lot of stuff come and go, and certainly stuff I've seen perhaps once and never seen again, anywhere, which worries me. I also know how stuff works, and how to enhance sound properly as well as anything to do with TV cameras, editing and broadcasting.

I am amazed at how many new UFO videos seem to crop up all the time, they're fun if not intruiging, you have to appreiciate how good some of them are... though I'm sure it must frustrate those who are genuinely trying to put patterns of events together and collaborate evidence to discover they are in fact using faked footage.

Do I believe in alien life regularly dropping down to earth, for fun or for business?

There's a part of me that perhaps deeply wishes for some alien intervention, to give mankind a kick up the backside and turn people from violent secularism and gang mentality to more conservationist and ecological advances.

As well as borrowing ideas from the little green men, or the greys, or whatever you want to call those beings who apparently hover above us all from time to time, developing non-pollutant energy sources from their UFO engines and lessening the murderous dependance on oil and fossil fuels can only be a good thing.

However I fear the delicate state of much of mankind would suffer terribly if they were to suddenly be confronted by real alien machines and beings, there would be mass suicides, people would have to revise their entire way of life, their spiritual and mental wellbeing would be turned upside down. Millions would die, certainly in the western world where Judo-Christianity and even Islam to a degree denounces the very concept of superior beings other than the ordained Gods.

A great many people would be scared, quite literally, to death.

I guess the Scientologists would be walking around with a big grin... that Tom Cruise is smug enough as it is without being proved pretty much right.

I read something here which rang true - someone made a comparison between UFO advocators and 9/11 truthers and said that UFO guys get treated a lot more seriously, and that people are more likely to believe in flying saucers than black ops activity carried out by the nastiest government since the Third Reich.
(I'm paraphrasing, but that was the jist of it)

I thought that was an interesting comparison. I think the base of difference lies in the approach of the 9/11 truthers - very aggressive approach in most cases, often utter disregard for the feelings of survivors of that day or the relatives of those who died, which I personally find utterly distasteful.

And many people and "organisations" have been utterly discredited yet are still being cited as "evidence" - the American Free Press (AFP - claims to be a news source and shares its on-screen bug with the rather more credible Agence France Presse).

I suppose I am more disappointed at the utter failure to learn, and make peace with others after something as terrible as the events of 9/11 than anything.

That might sound quite hippy - I think of myself as far more militant but I'm really just a pacifist.

Large sections of the truth movement, those who insist 9/11 was an inside job, seem to be keen to blame Jewish, or "Zionist" people. Which I think is nasty.

I guess the UFO guys don't care if people don't believe them, unlike 9/11 truthers who want something far darker... [I]the truth[/I].

Me? I'm undecided. 50/50 split. Best way to be.

This one is a biggy I think, people see footage and call fake on it and then someone with video knowledge pipes up and informs us that its a bloody good fake and it would have taken so much time etc. that it may not be a fake... Which of course is confusing... what would a genuine UFO footage look like? Would the magority of us think, "omg that looks so fake"?

A word of warning, try not to mix Zionists with Jews, Jews are everyday people, all over the world doing and practising different things, Zionists (at least the hardcore high-ups) are not a people but they are a group, with an agenda.

The truth! Just like UFO footage... would we recognise the truth when we see it or call fake like we usually do?

Hehe gotta love ATS

Well, Arthur, glad to have you join us. Another voice with a past in pictures should be good. I think, or maybe just one more take? Oh well, around here there's no time to waste, so join an argument.

And if you need a place to jump right into a 'cause', check out a thread about a TV station and some UFOs. "Top Cleveland Anchorman Reports 'On Air' that he Saw 5 UFOs Near Station", and he wasn't telling it as a joke, or making fun of this. Good place to start, and with your background, you could add some weight to our e-mails to the station supporting the anchorman.

Again, welcome to ATS.

Love the name. Right up there with Betty Swollocks and Fonda Cox!
