The credo, &#8220;land of the free and home of the brave&#8221; no longer has meaning! When our own government &#8220;perpetrated a fraud&#8221; on 9\/11 16 years ago, it started the deterioration of faith that people had for the so-called leaders of this once great nation. The sacrifice of citizens to further\u00a0<strong>any<\/strong> agenda is criminal! Our own government did a number us! At first, everyone believed the lie. Then as time progressed, we, the people, started to recognize the truth. There were just too many questions and too many\u00a0<strong>amazing\u00a0<\/strong>answers! We all know the cover story. It was done by 19 &#8220;terrorists&#8221;. So we were led to believe that a basically\u00a0<strong>aluminum\u00a0<\/strong>object was able to cut through steel and then\u00a0<strong>magically\u00a0<\/strong>disappear! Everyone believed and trusted that this was the truth. &#8220;What&#8217;s done in the dark will\u00a0<strong>always\u00a0<\/strong>come to light&#8221;. The\u00a0<strong>real<\/strong> facts speak for themselves!\u00a0<strong>No<\/strong> steel and concrete building has\u00a0<strong>ever<\/strong> collapsed from fire! Period! No matter how long that structure burned. That is&#8230; until 9\/11. <strong>That<\/strong> day\u00a0<strong>three\u00a0<\/strong>steel structures &#8220;so-called&#8221; collapsed. We (the informed) know that those buildings were brought down by controlled demolition. Four commercial airliners crashed that day. I&#8217;ve seen the aftermath of 2 aircraft crashes personally. Recognizable pieces of wreckage all over. But somehow the laws of physics and aerodynamics took\u00a0<strong>that<\/strong> day off! Although airliners are mostly light metals for flight, the engines aren&#8217;t. Why are there\u00a0<strong>no\u00a0<\/strong>engines? I am not a scientist, but\u00a0<strong>damn!<\/strong> Also, (and all you can do is laugh at\u00a0<strong>this<\/strong>) how is it that not\u00a0<strong>one\u00a0<\/strong>black box was found but one of the &#8220;so-called&#8221; terrorist&#8217;s passport was found (by FBI) in pristine condition! Just another reason to go hmmm? \u00a0I know that this is like beating a dead horse but all of us fell for it. Our own government pulled the wool over our eyes! To further certain agendas. Agendas to subjugate the U.S. Constitution! The Patriot Act, Agenda 21, etc. All to take away power from the people. To spy on us, to lock us up without cause. Wow! Look at the state of America. Our commander and chief is purporting racism. You can&#8217;t feel sorry for him either. He is\u00a0<strong>not<\/strong> a politician and he is\u00a0<strong>not\u00a0<\/strong>capable to be the President. Trump lives for money. Nothing else. Money has turned him into the arrogant idiot he is. Nothing else matters to him. All he wants to do is reverse <strong>everything\u00a0<\/strong>President Obama did.\u00a0I feel sorry for America. It&#8217;s no longer great like it used to be. There are people today that still believe that Osama Bin Laden was behind 9\/11. They want to call themselves patriots and believe whatever the government says. No matter<strong> how<\/strong> fantastic. Good for them. Keep the wool over your eyes. There&#8217;s a few of us that live with\u00a0<strong>open\u00a0<\/strong>eyes. Open enough to be skeptical and not take\u00a0<strong>everything\u00a0<\/strong>the powers that be tell us at face value. When the people fear their government there&#8217;s tyranny. When the government fears the people there&#8217;s freedom!
