"9/11 TRUTH" IS GETTING ME DOWN

I don't know what depresses me more about this video--Nico Haupt's guerrilla theater performance art, or the dogged earnestness of We Are Change in returning to the Scene of the Crime every week, thinking they actually ARE change, only to be taunted by Nico a second, third, fourth, and fifth time.

Perhaps Ground Zero isn't the place to spread the "inside job" message, especially if the area begins to resemble a schoolyard with rival cliques of third graders shoving each other. Many New Yorkers think something fishy (and at variance with the official explanation) occurred on Sept. 11, 2001, but they're weary of having that thrown at them by zealots every time they travel Downtown. Smaller venues in far-flung areas would be better for communicating the evidence that the Official Story is hooey.

This stuff does make me tired. Or maybe it's just that I'm getting old.

This is a real hot spot for high emotions, anger and blowing off each other with old school yard bully like he said...she said...push n shove...I can see why its getting everyone down including the NY police who look like they are trying to solve this with-out resolve. Its gotten violent and has split away the civil from disobedience... Violence leads to violence ...so why not come up with a new plan in activism...truly this gig has no value for anyone

Richard,

Thanks for commenting. You're absolutely right. When Ground Zero becomes a sideshow, it dishonors the 9/11 dead and brings disfavor on those who sincerely try to expose the lies of the real perpetrators of the crime.

Activists should be renting booths at state and county fairs, home shows, flea markets, etc., all over the country to get the message to people who otherwise would not hear it. They should make books, pamphlets, and videos available for sale, and be willing to have one-on-one conversations with those in attendance.

By way of analogy, no one would show up at St. Patrick's Cathedral on Easter to promote atheism. And they certainly wouldn't engage in shoving matches with rival factions of unbelievers while the service was going on. It just wouldn't do.

For activists, appropriate demeanor is all part of the message.

Thanks again, and keep up the good work north of the border!

Andy

Thanks for speaking out about this.

This is extremely juvenile by both parties and a black eye for the movement. While many members of WAC do great work, this confrontational crap discredits their own good works (especially when the media gets wind if it), the rest of us 9/11 Truth activists who are trying to put our best foot forward, and it dishonors the victims and their families.

This time they get confronted and then whine about it. The enemies of Truth must be laughing their asses off. It has nothing to do with age, but rather maturity, and anyone with a lick of common sense can see that this is counter-productive. Luke has done good work, but he gets no sympathy from me on this. Obviously the police had no symptahy either.

Contempt breads contempt. Respect breeds respect.

Being CHANGE is being civil and respecting others, even if they don't deserve it.

Being mature means accepting responsibility and realising that, what goes around comes around.

After watching this and recalling the number of times I have listened to and watched Nico, I cannot help but conclude that he is mentally disturbed. I sincerely mean this. He is clearly not right in the head. He is too full of himself. Either his pride and conceit that he has all the answers about 9/11 allows him to engage in this type of vulgar and destructive display of folly, or he is acting as a deliberate or deceived agent provocateur. No person sincerely trying to get out 9/11 truth would act like this repeatedly. Maybe there would be one incident because one has gotten caught up emotionally. Yet he is always behaving in a way only a sociopath would. He clearly has issues in dealing with others. And yet we are to believe that he desires to spread 9/11 truth in this manner? The rhetoric and the reality do not match. And I do not say this as a supporter of the We Are Change group. I think they have had their moments of going over the line.

Yet Nico has long ago stepped across the line of activism and into the mode of a anarchist deliberately trying to smear, defame and nullify the good of other 9/11 activists. Such a cancer should be quarantined. Any good he possibly did in the past has long since been undermined by his other deeds.

Nico Reminds me a lot of Eric Hufschimd's antics. I just scratch my head in amazement.
