I often have to laugh at you 9/11 Truthers, always coming up with what you believe as substantial evidence to support your argument. But after all the Engineers, and Aerospace professors, and after all the alleged Professionals you drag into the equation, one thing is left unanswered. The FACT that all these alleged experts are all either professors or some other type of book worm. Which by the way have had no real time experience in construction let alone any time in the field.
I for one am a building inspector for the largest company in the world kown as BECHTEL. And after 15+ years of construction experience not in some classroom with all my adoring fans ( aka students to dumb to perceive the world in their own light), I can assure you that the buildings did not come down to fast. Case in point, I highly recommend you look up or atleast view what is known as concrete field testing, also known as Concrete break tests. Also, one fact that i find truly amazing is that these alleged experts claim that the fire burnt off the fire proofing within the buildings, only problem is, the buildings construction were completed in the 70's, but not only did fire proofing not become a recognized practice, but the inspections for such procedures didnt begin till 1981. So how is an alleged practice let alone material get used on not one but two buildings when the ICC/ICBO didnt recognize it as an official practice till 1981?
Nice try jack wagon, you truthers make me laugh, always far reaching~

His personal statement:
Personal 9/11 Statement:
The way the buildings collapsed was more like a planned implosion rather than an impact such as a jet airliner.

How did the buildings - all 3 including tower 7 - accelerate at freefall speeds? Please explain the total power outages in the towers in the weeks leading up to 911, and the security breakdowns, and the very low occupancy rates.
Simple physics, only plausible explanantion consistent with all evidence is controlled demolition.

But why put fireproofing on steel?
Steel does not give a @#"!#! about fire....

Please google 911 studies/ 911 photos and look at Jack Whites pictures. The ones taken by the first Firemen on scene at the Pentagon and the ones that show WTC6, the US customs building being blown up as the debris from the second plane hit the south tower was still falling and all the DOD PICTURES THAT ARE STILL ON THEIR WEBSITE.

i know this is off topic abit...but people who keep coming into 9/11 forums and just slinging junk around and not looking at the facts is a mystery to me.
these are professionals, but to tell you the truth....i work and have been in the construction trade all my life, i am not an Engineer, and I KNOW just by the way the buildings fell it was a controlled demolition.
but to all those who just come in and slag people and keep saying....wheres the PROOF.
well when the heck will you start backing up your statements with PROOF.
there is more actual proof against the OS than there is for it.
anyways another point to 9/11.
When major aircrashes happen what is one of the main objectives...SIMPLE.
Find the black boxes,collect all salvagable debris from the aircraft,reassemble the pices, and even after a plane explodes on impact there is always a large amount of aircraft debris.
the black boxes alone would have survived...and if you believe they found the passport of one of the said hijackers, then they very well should have found the black boxes.
so the people who immediately want to slag the thread(happen within in the second post(suprise).
I think you need to go back and reassess all matters on the subject and maybe try to present a story that all make perfect sense to everyone rather than just bashing what others might say on the subject.
also as i just mention in another recent 9/11 posting...how come soon as 9/11 is posted it comes under immediate srcutiny by the staff of ATS.
Observe and learn.

I've heard this before, and I think its great, but what we going to do about it?
I think people feel something was fishy and deserves looking into, but mainstream is never going to push for it, and they are going to make it seem like its not an issue if we all sat infront of the white house. Its sad, but we lost. We lost big. All we can do is be aware, pay attention, and stand up the next time. Im sorry if you don't like my thought.
Thanks again.
