Well there ya go, man.
My first of those was in '96 when I saw a giant freaking triangle fly over my head at a low altitude
Here I am today.
I try and follow the evidence, but at times the desire to believe clouds the judgement of evidence.
All I can do is my best.
Happy hunting.

Nonsense.
Ockham's Razor does support the existence of UFO's far more than folks typically appealing to it in behalf of disbelief seem to be able to wrap their minds around.
GIVEN the massive amount of quality information from literally thousands of QUALITY SOURCES
it is MORE ABSURD to DENY their existence.
Now as to WHAT they are and WHAT they are up to is a different set of issues.
However, that they exist is no longer an issue for folks typically used to dealing with the realities most of us have to face day by day.
Only the willfully blind insist that there's no wind blowing the leaves around merely because they fail to be able to capture a crystal sharp image of the wind.
The wind blowing the leaves is the simplest, most likely, most accurate explanation regardless of the absence of crystal clear photos of moving air.

First of all, I didn't claim it came from space, did I?
Secondly, I take great offense to the term nut job. You need to check yourself and explain your faulty reasoning you have been called on by numerous people here.
Thanks in advance.

I can think of at least three reasons off the top of my head within the extraterrestrial hypothesis that explains why this is so.
So, your point is invalid.
1. Their technology gets better. Just like ours.
2. They send multiple models.
3. There are multiple species. Each with their own unique tech.
Cool pictures though.

Because some folks enjoy ATS as a place to discuss these issues with civility as the t and c demand of its membership.
I do not take well to name calling. Try some damn respect. I have afforded you nothing less.

Physical Trace Cases
Physical trace reports were labeled Close Encounters of the Second Kind (CE-II) by J.Allen Hynek and involve instances where there was a physical interaction between the UFO and its environment. Usually these involve a landing trace, such as depressed grass or soil, but also burned or broken vegetation, residues, and more exotic traces. There are at least somewhere between 3,500 and 5,000 UFO physical trace cases.
It is nothing like that what so ever. For a start there will be some form of physical evidence of that occurance, and one could set a private investigator to aquire proof of such things. You havent thought this arguement through very well.
One does not ignore the information which is available on any given topic. However, one should reserve ones judgement until such a time as a properly solid conclusion can be come to, and without such solidity as you refer to, no conclusion can be achieved, merely a continuation of the mystery. Given that your example actually contained reference to the sorts of evidence which are entirely lacking in all known cases of interest, the arguement you are making falls flat upon its fundament on this point.
Murderers should only be convicted on solid evidence, which amounts to proof, a chain of evidence which connects them to the scene, the body, the weapon used, and every moment inbetween. That is the standard which is supposed to be applied. That it is rarely done correctly, is not acceptable, or a support for your argument.
And upon what precisely, do you base this faith, this lack of doubt? This is precisely why actual evidence trumps the word of human beings. If you take a person at thier word without measuring that word against evidence, then you leave yourself open to falsehood and are asking to be misdirected.

The implication couldn't possibly be more clear. You were responding to my remarks. My intellectual property. And saying people who think like this were nutjobs.
At any rate, I take it you are not going to clarify your remarks. So I will chalk it up to someone talking out their ass and leave it be.
Good day.

Wellllllll, you may or may not know that the coming NWO has no place for such an orientation regardless of how much energy they have put into shoving folks into that religion of atheism.
The UFO critters worship satan and are engineering the NWO to force all the world's citizens to do the same . . . just as was predicted for our era 2,000 years ago.
Disbelief in facts doesn't alter the facts a shred.
Skynews is correct, the critters et al are a serious threat to life and to freedom.
