Crossing the line
As I said the other day in relation to Justin Raimondo (I cannot be arsed to link to him, you will have to look it up), conspiracy theories, which at some point bring in Jews, disgust me. I have just put the phone down on an acquaintance – not a friend – who likes bending my ear about how Karl Rove/Bush/Haliburton/insert entity of choice arranged to blow the WTC up, how there was unusual Air Force activity in the area at the time, yadda-yadda.
I’ll admit that these people may have been mildly diverting in their lunacy in the past and provided plenty of material for Stanley Kubrick’s Dr Strangelove. But to anyone reading this who thinks I wish to spend my brief life on Earth listening to these vile and dangerous pieces of nonsense, you are wasting your time. Go back underneath your rocks and stay there.
Thanks for reading.

I encountered the same sort of shite post 9/11. I have to say I no longer have any friends or acquiantances who spew such vile tripe. As you said…life is way too damn short.
I’ve got one I still speak to (my brother). I just look at him like he’s crazy (which, IMO, on this subject – he is) and keep my mouth shut.
He is also on the milder end – with the ‘they knew it was going to happen and didn’t stop it because…’ and not on the ‘they did it themselves’. I doubt I’ll be able to keep my mouth shut if he starts on that…
