Reader Al, our resident conspiracy theorist, must be pleasuring himself to this post.
You gotta hand it to 9-11 truthers– they’re fucking determined. It’s been 13 years and the mainstream public still doesn’t take them seriously,* but they keep trying. Mostly. I went to the World Trade Center Memorial in Lower Manhattan in the cold and snow last weekend, and they weren’t there. Was kind of disappointed that even the truth has snow cancellation numbers. Shame.
Anyway, Truther Matt Mills, incredibly, got into the Seahawks’ post-game press conference last night and got his message across, quite literally to the entire world. From a truthing strategy standpoint, it’s genius. From a security at the Super Bowl is really great! standpoint, it’s fucking terrifying.
Mills explained to NJ.com just how he pulled it off:
Then the self-described 9/11 truther saw an employee bus at Secaucus Junction and hopped aboard.
Around Mills’ neck was an old credential from a festival he covered, a rectangular badge that, at quick glance, didn’t look too dissimilar from the ones issued to media members, team employees and others who worked the Super Bowl.
He also used a common refrain whenever hassled by security, which is supposed verify each credential or ticket with a barcode along with putting attendees through other security screenings.
“I just said I was running late for work and I had to get in there,” Mills said. “It was that simple.”
Mills said he got through multiple layers of security using that bogus story.
“I didn’t think that I’d get that far,” Mill said. “I just kept getting closer and closer. Once I got past the final gate and into the stadium, I was dumbfounded.”
After the game concluded, Mills walked into the media tent, where players and coaches were brought for interviews.
“I just saw my opportunity to get my word out there and I took it,” Mills said.
It’s amazing that he didn’t even have a ticket to the game. I just figured he snuck into a restricted area after the game by posing as media and found his way to the press room– sadly, a relatively easy thing to do if you’re dressed nice enough (Mills wasn’t) and you act like you’re in a hurry. But nope. Crashed the entire game with a festival badge. Even the aforementioned Ground Zero memorial site had better security than the biggest sporting event on Earth, played just across the river. And it’s things like this that unfortunately, ironically, demonstrate just how easy it would be for someone who meant actual harm to get access to secure events.
*Don’t get me wrong, you don’t have to be a conspiracy theorist to admit that they do, at the very least, raise a few questions – about details of the investigation and explanations, not who was behind the attacks – that have never been adequately answered. Still, there are so many reckless, unsupported, and often contradictory, claims that it’s hard to take anything they say seriously. Sort of like the Occupy movement in that regard.

They have not at all, in any way, raised any legitimate questions that have yet to be adequately answered. From the “steel cannot melt” at a certain temperature to all the other bogus stuff they’ve said, it’s all been more than adequately explained.
Kyle, they aren’t like Occupy Wall Street, because the impetus of Occupy Wall Street was real: growing inequality. Yes, there are people who are nuts who used OWS for other messages, but at least the origin of the movement is accurate. 9/11 truthers? Their starting point is the government plotted 9/11. I’m sorry, you can’t land even a shred of credibility to something with such a fundamentally incorrect understanding of what happened.
This shouldn’t devolve into a conspiracy conversation, but there are a few questions that are good ones. How the hell did building 7 just fall? Why have we never been able to see video of a plane hitting the pentagon? What’s with all the confusing war games going on that same day? Kyle didn’t say they proved a point, just that they were reasonable questions. Most notably that they refuse to release video of plane hitting the Pentagon.
Conspiracies don’t involve thousands and thousands of people. You’d have to be a complete fucktard to actually think this was a conspiracy. Anyone with an inkling of practical sense could see how weak the conspiracy “argument” really is. Get a fucking life, loser.
Love your comment. These idiots are Fucktards. Nothing better to do but stir up baseless shit.
*I’ve been surprised many times by this abomination of a blog but that 9/11 conspiracy/Occupy comparison is by far one of the stupidest things I’ve ever read, anywhere. You just don’t get it. Stick to the sports TMZ bullshit that you hawk and leave the important conversations for people much smarter than yourself.
I didn’t say their goals were equal– but that the reason no one takes either seriously is because they’re all over the place. Go to a 9/11 conspiracy site and you’ll a hundred conflicting claims, ergo it’s impossible to take even one seriously, because any argument they had – and I’m not saying they have any – is contradicted by another.
The Occupy movement is grounded in truth, but they were impossible to take seriously, too, because it was just thousands of people yelling about different things with no specific message. WE HATE RICH PEOPLE is not a good strategy to get actual change. A smart person might be able to figure out I was comparing their tactics, not their message.
On the morning of September 11, 2001, 19 men armed with boxcutters directed by a man on dialysis in a cave fortress halfway around the world using a satellite phone and a laptop directed the most sophisticated penetration of the most heavily-defended airspace in the world, overpowering the passengers and the military combat-trained pilots on 4 commercial aircraft before flying those planes wildly off course for over an hour without being molested by a single fighter interceptor.
These 19 hijackers, devout religious fundamentalists who liked to drink alcohol, snort cocaine, and live with pink-haired strippers, managed to knock down 3 buildings with 2 planes in New York, while in Washington a pilot who couldn’t handle a single engine Cessna was able to fly a 757 in an 8,000 foot descending 270 degree corskscrew turn to come exactly level with the ground, hitting the Pentagon in the budget analyst office where DoD staffers were working on the mystery of the 2.3 trillion dollars that Defense Secretary Donald Rumsfeld had announced “missing” from the Pentagon’s coffers in a press conference the day before, on September 10, 2001.
Luckily, the news anchors knew who did it within minutes, the pundits knew within hours, the Administration knew within the day, and the evidence literally fell into the FBI’s lap. But for some reason a bunch of crazy conspiracy theorists demanded an investigation into the greatest attack on American soil in history.
I hear ya Cuz! Continue to be a sheep!
Three years ago i talked to a Federal Air Marshall. We were talking about 911 and when i brought up Flight 93 he cut me off and said “That plane was shot down”. so there goes the “Let’s Roll” hero story. a plan doesn’t have to involve “thousands of people”. The british cracked the japanese military codes before Pearl Harbor. they knew where the Jap ships were headed. FDR knew. attack was allowed to happen. Same with 911.
In June 2001, VP Dick Cheney took command of NORAD’s “Operation Vigilant Guardian” a hi jacking simulation. 1st time in history a civilian was in charge of a military operation.
On the morning of 911 the simulation was running at NORAD, the soldiers kept asking their supervisors, “Is this real world or the simulation ?” Google Operation Northwoods 1962…the PNAC think tank document…old tricks are the best tricks. Our parents fell for Pearl Harbor, we fell for 911.
9/11 was the ultimate magic trick – just read this:
truthin7minutes.com/september-11-hoax-the-truth-about-the-911-hoax
Hahaha come on man. Really? I love how one of the first images on this site is an article with the following headline:
“Fake 9/11 hero admits lie; fellow firefighters furious”
It just shows the headline and a very little amount of the article. And it doesn’t even offer any kind of summary/commentary on the article. When you read the article, it’s not even about someone saying 9/11 was a sham. It’s actually about a guy lying about being a Fire Captain in Ladder 133.
Not sure how you could look at that first thing on the site, and continue to take anything else they say seriously…
On 9/11 there was no reaction from the USAF as hijacked aircraft flew through US airspace and plowed into buildings. This lack of response is inconceivable unless the USAF was stood down.
Careful planning made this easy to achieve.
Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff Instruction CJCSI 3610.01A (dated 1 June 2001) changed the protocol so that any requests for “potentially lethal support” had to come explicitly from the secretary of defense, leaving commanders in the field unable to respond to hijackings in any meaningful fashion.
Five military exercises were held on 9/11, and this resulted in flight controllers, commanders and pilots being unable to distinguish real world events from exercise scenarios.
Even if a hostile plane was identified it couldn’t be fired upon because secretary of defense Donald Rumsfeld was “out of the loop” during the attacks (as was the acting head of the Joint Chiefs of Staff).
Chaos reigned supreme on 9/11 thanks to the above…
Everyone should watch “Loose Change” on YouTube.
If nothing else, it will at least raise a few questions in the minds of even the most conservative of Americans.
You people are a bunch of fucking lunatics. Get a fucking life, die or just go away please, you insult those of us with critical thinking skills with your speculative bullshit. Ever think that two of the largest skyscrapers on fucking earth caused enough general damage to the area to maybe make the closest building to the scene fall? Loose Change is for retards and idiots who want to blame the govt for everything. The real consipiracy for you assholes should be why you still can’t get laid as adult men.
I said this 3 years ago..question everything fan
Dear Bo Bo people with “critical thinking skills” rarely use profanity, it’s below them.
so who are you, really ?
Tell that to Lenny Bruce, Bill Maher, Howard Stern or Richard Prior who all quite effectively use/used profanity to rip/satire both the establishment and anti-establishment assholes out there. These 9/11 truthers are nothing more than people who hate the government and will cling onto any idea possible to defend their stupidity/anger. Yes, stupidity. I never voted for either Bush, and never supported their bullshit wars/propaganda, but to think the US govt could/would pull off something this huge, despicable and complicated takes a special kind of retard.
Osama Bin Laden lived in a cave fortress in the hills of Afghanistan, but somehow got away. Then he was hiding out in Tora Bora but somehow got away. Then he lived in Abottabad for years, taunting the most comprehensive intelligence dragnet employing the most sophisticated technology in the history of the world for 10 years, releasing video after video with complete impunity (and getting younger and younger as he did so), before finally being found in a daring SEAL team raid which wasn’t recorded on video, in which he didn’t resist or use his wife as a human shield, and in which these crack special forces operatives panicked and killed this unarmed man, supposedly the best source of intelligence about those dastardly terrorists on the planet. Then they dumped his body in the ocean before telling anyone about it. Then a couple dozen of that team’s members died in a helicopter crash in Afghanistan.
Iron Man 3 called. It wants its crappy plot twist back.
This is the story of 9/11, brought to you by the media which told you the hard truths about JFK and incubator babies and mobile production facilities and the rescue of Jessica Lynch.
If you have any questions about this story…you are a batshit, paranoid, tinfoil, dog-abusing baby-hater and will be reviled by everyone. If you love your country and/or freedom, happiness, rainbows, rock and roll, puppy dogs, apple pie and your grandma, you will never ever express doubts about any part of this story to anyone. Ever.
This has been a public service announcement by: the Friends of the FBI, CIA, NSA, DIA, SEC, MSM, White House, NIST, and the 9/11 Commission. Because Ignorance is Strength.
Lay off the bath salts, chief.
I hate your posts not just because I disagree with everything you say, but because you are a fucking idiot.
Now put your aluminum hat back on your head so the Martians that control Microsoft don’t get into your brain and then a group of aliens from Jupiter sneak in your moms basement and touch you in the night.
That is all.
I didn’t say anything the official story doesn’t claim…
Duct Tape and Freedom Fries. Axis of Evildoers.
aka Creating your enemies
The truth is that unintelligent people are drawn to conspiracies because they aren’t bright enough to grasp the conclusions of fact.
so you’re saying their arguments are wrong because you think they’re unintelligent? I’m not saying they’re correct, but you’re using the logic of a 12yr old. (ad hom)
@Kyle Scott your invitation is in the mail
the JFK files were sealed away for 75 years. why ? the NSA recently released some info on Pearl Harbor after 40 years. On Sept 10th 2001 Sec of Defense Donald Rumsfeld gave a press conference concerning the 2 Trillion dollars missing from the Pentagon.
Lenny Bruce was a comic genius. He proved that words used often enough lose their meaning.
Bill Mahr ? funny but tows the line. Bow down before the one you serve.
I’m a 9/11 truther as well. I planned the whole thing.
Weigh in on HAARP and chemtrails while you’re at it, Kyle.
Oh, yeah, blame it all on Nikola Tesla…..i guess he sunk the Titanic and started that fire in Ms O’Leary’s barn.
Man o’ man Kyle deletes almost every comment I post here.
Why, Kyle?
I posted quote after quote of the coroner in Pennsylvania who said no one died in that hole on 9/11. Quote after quote for more than a year. He said it looked like someone threw some garbage in the hole… no bodies were there… not a drop of blood either.
