You typed a post. They replied to it
You said all those things that they replied to
Out of context is stuff like this:
Book reviewer:
this novel was a colossal waste of time
Publisher
"...colossal...."
Do you see? Out of context implies that the meaning has been changed
These posters are not taking you out of context, they are addressing your points
That doesn't necessarily mean you have to collapse of course. Just take a little more time to think through your reply and don't accuse people of doing stuff they're not doing just because you're struggling
Regarding the original topic I think it's generally a good thing that governments should be questioned, I think modern freedom is built on questioning authority and I think there are plenty of examples where the conspiracy theorists have been proved right (eg Watergate)
I'm not so sure that anything has been proven or even presented as reasonably probable regarding the 9/11 conspiracy theories but I'm glad that there are people out there testing the truth
Dozer, I couldn't see your video, got some message about my system not being able to read it after the d/l
