Wow. Aaron Rodgers doesn't believe 9/11 happened the way it did either.
Sometimes you just can't fix stupid.
I helped with the cleanup in a small way. I saw what the inside of the Pentagon looked like the next day.
It is hard to make me angrier than to spout horseshit that it wasn't airplanes that took those buildings down.
Rodgers is a Moron.
(Note, this story is a couple of years old, but per Keith O's podcast he repeated this and other horseshit just 2 weeks ago)

@Animeraider maybe I’m a tinfoil hat weirdo, but I think aspects of that whole deal are worth of more inquiry. WTC building 7 as an example. Maybe it was all as described, but some parts don’t seem to entirely fit. Is football man suggesting that there weren’t planes? Like, is this about details, or the story overall? Not that it matters- the dude is a kook.
@MookyTroubadour Once upon a time, some years and years ago, I worked for the company that built WTC7, and was the same contractor doing the refurbish on the Pentagon.
Dump a bunch of burning fuel on a building and it's gonna come down. Simple as that.
Football man is one of those "controlled demolition" idiots.
@Animeraider I might be one of those idiots as well. At least where WTC 7 is concerned. I didn’t see any angles that showed burning fuel raining down on it. I also didn’t see a burning roof. I don’t know anything about a controlled demolition, but it was peculiar that the developer Silverstein said to the FD to “pull” the building. Maybe he’s a nutter. Who knows?
A group of engineers did a study through the University of Alaska, Fairbanks that disputed the NIST story on WTC 7. Maybe they’re all nutters too.
I don’t have a theory to defend, but I’m not sold on the official narrative.
@MookyTroubadour You don't see a lot of footage of the roof of building 7 from the day. That's because it was covered in body parts. The media agreed not to show it. I threw up in a trash can when I first saw the photos.
The fire slow-burned in the inside of the building for several hours. When the towers fell a 10-story gap was left in building 7. From about that point forward you can see the fires.
It fell soon afterwords.

Building 7 was above a power station and more heavily reinforced from fire than the other buildings. It just took longer. Having another building fall near it surely didn't help. Building 7 (47 stories) was the only other building in that complex more than 25 stories tall.
Between the slow burning fires fueled by jet fuel and the sudden acceleration of them once the towers came down, the collapse was inevitable.
I'm done.
