Jahnava Nitai Das Posted October 15, 2001 Report Share Posted October 15, 2001 I just saw this article on CNN and thought the following statement was pretty stupid. They found 2 box cutters hidden in an overhead bin on a plane that was scheduled to go to New York on Sept 11th but was later grounded. In response, the Canadian police say: "There is no evidence to prove that the knives were placed on the plane on September 11, or before or after that, because they weren't found until September 14," Reber said. "And there is nothing to suggest that passenger safety was ever compromised." They find two knives on a plane, and they say "nothing suggests that passenger safety was ever compromised"!? And then they conclude: Paradis would only say that based on the 4,700 tips the RCMP has received to date, they have not seen anything that would compromise the security of air travelers. Anyone else find this type of statement ludicrous? They find two knives on a plane and say, "Everything was fine, the plane didn't crash, did it?"

valaya Posted October 16, 2001 Report Share Posted October 16, 2001 Yes, prabhu, that is only a small sample of Canadian thinking, a peculiar mixture of moral superiority and wilful ignorance. Now that I see you're interested, perhaps I'll pass on a few more examples. Many in this country actually believe that we're protected by God due to our inherent goodness in relation to those nasty militaristic Americans to the south, thereby conveniently evading the responsibility of sharing in our own defence. GOD BLESS AMERICA! Without her, where would the world be? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tarun Posted October 16, 2001 Report Share Posted October 16, 2001 I think we/they should set aside the guns & missiles. Instead we/they should have an international boxcutter war. Round Robin or Free-for-All. And they/we can ride around in boxcars. No petrol allowed. Even Steven. Why should Mother Earth's blood be burned to shed human blood? Double Indemnity vs Doubly Guilty.

Tarun Posted November 25, 2001 Report Share Posted November 25, 2001 These 9/11 boxcutter knives must've had very SHORT blades. Shorter still? American memories. These 9/11 boxcutter knives must've had very LONG blades. Longer still? Pinocchio schnozzles. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tarun Posted November 29, 2001 Report Share Posted November 29, 2001 Anyone who thinks a passenger filled plane can be hijacked by 4 boxcutters knows absolutely nothing about aeronautics nor politics. Go hide under your bed & make believe you're alive. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tarun Posted December 3, 2001 Report Share Posted December 3, 2001 One boxcutter can't even cut through a plastic pocketbook or attache case before another pocketbook or attache case hits the perpetrator upside his holy head. Four boxcutters can't even cut... How many passengers on each plane? Plus flight crew? How many pocketbooks? Attache cases? Canes? Crutches? Moreover, not one person aboard knew any martial arts? Not even one? What are the odds of that? Do the Math yourself. Totally bogus. Absolutely impossible. But because so many Americans can't even count to 10... No wonder Right-wingers consider not only Jesus... but also all of you/us "Lambs fit for Slaughter". Actually I really like Bushman, Chaingang, Ashcan, Rumpfelt. Unfortunately, their administration is totally false. So far, 325 days of falsehood & buzzwords. Nothing more. 400 days if we go back to their false Nov2000 election. Same thing for Aerial Charade. Their all batting zero. Still their allowed to step up to the plate & bat. Still their fans are cheering. Still they haven't been pinched hit for. Amazing. After so many consecutive strikeouts. Astounding. Simply losers. No pennant this year. Nor the next. This proves so many Americans know nothing about baseball. They can wear their local team hats, jerseys, flags. Still, zero understanding of baseball. And what to speak of deadly deceptive political strategies! Old wine in new bottles. Drink it! Remain drunk! Remain a Fool All your Life! They're depending on your stupidity. Don't let them down. And for those Americans who know whom NOT to believe? Intelligent Americans don't buy into nonsense politicians. Not even using their famous "Hold Your Nose Method". Intelligent Americans take their business elsewhere. Before u accept/buy anything as fact/truth, ask for proof. Or as Dylan sang: "Okay, what else can you show me?" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
