    ccmfans.net is not only for Mariners fans either. Most of us are bonded by our support for the Mariners, but if you are a fan of another club (except the Scum, come on, we need some standards), feel free to join and get into some banter.

Conspiracy Theories (NWS)

Was Martin Bryant guilty ? Was he capable of such accurate shooting in the massacre. ?

"On 28 April 1996 at Port Arthur in Australia, some of the best combat shooters in the world used a total of only 64 bullets to kill 35 people, wound 22 more, and cripple two cars. The first 19 victims in the Broad Arrow Cafe each died from a single 5.56-mm bullet to the head, all fired in less than 20 seconds from the right hip of a fast-moving combat shooter. This awesome display of marksmanship was blamed on an intellectually impaired young man called Martin Bryant, who had no shooting or military experience at all. In the months and years following Martins arrest, much of the public and private strain fell on his widowed mother Carleen. This is a very small part of Carleen Bryants profoundly disturbing story." --Joe Vialls

" Shortly after the murder of President John F. Kennedy in 1963, a Christchurch, New Zealand morning newspaper printed a detailed story it received on the New York news wire about Kennedys "assassin" Lee Harvey Oswald. There was a major problem with this news story, because at the time the New Zealand newspaper went to press in Christchurch, Lee Harvey Oswald had only just been arrested in a Dallas cinema for the alleged murder of a Texas policeman called Tibbet. Several more hours passed before Dallas police even accused Oswald of the murder of President Kennedy. So the Christchurch newspaper inadvertently printed an impossible story, a concocted lie "seeded" onto the New York news wire too early by the real murderers, who forgot that international time zones and thus real-time would allow the New Zealand newspaper to print their pre-arranged cover story hours before the events happened. That single critical planning error proved conclusively Lee Harvey Oswald was only a fall-guy, a patsy arrested and charged on cue by the unwitting Dallas Police Force."

LOL at the Theorists making out as that MarinerMick is the crazy guy.

So, most pilots believe that its not realistic to fly a plane so low and/or make the turns necessary to replicate the flight path? Thats nice, but I think if you asked most pilots whether they could fly a plane into a building they would also say no.

So, how does the assembly of selected comments from various people from different contexts over the course of a period of time allow a conspiracy theory to be proven? Answer: it doesn't. You make a strong case for almost anything using that method.

Also LOL at Wilson's admission that he was once a stalker but now he has seen the light and he only believes in sensible pursuits such as conspiracy theories. Says it all really. :piralaugh:

Ahhh, I think I might know what my own post says.

And I don't have any affilliations or obsessions with any particular newspaper or powerbroker. LOL - more conspiracy theories.

I think Global Warming is a conspiracy. I mean look outside, 1 week to summer, is it bloody hot?

A crazy one I just thought of which I think will "gain some weight" with the crazy people that actually believe this kind of stuff is that an Evil Overlord owns all the Fast Food Franchises to make the world population obese, so the Earth will shift in its orbit and be destroyed.

Bugger conspiracies that we already know exists, come up with new ones!

Gee, I'd be very careful taking this guy's quote as some sort of evidence.

And, you might want to have some consideration for those who may have some connection to that crime, or the offender, before sprouting about this tragedy without full first hand knowledge of the facts yourself.

I know a lot of what has been put into this Thread has been a bit of horseplay, but be aware that some of us may have had some prior contact with the offender, or have some knowledge about what happened that day. Show some decorum please.

And if you read the Wiki entry for that Massacre, you will soon read that not all folks who died in that Cafe died of head wounds, a Cafe that was quite small.

Bryant is as guilty as sin for those deaths, only his fingerprints were all over the murder weapons. And he was captured at the scene, with no reports of other persons involved at all.

The only issue of any sort of defence that was mentioned was the defence of imbecility, because of his low IQ. He barely scraped through the basic intelligence test, but was found to have a volatile mix of personality traits, one capable of violence.

Yeah, I understand that, but 19 people were injured, which means they may still be alive trying to get over the trauma of that day. I'm sure some those people or their family, would be happy to read that post.

It shits me no end when such tragedies always seem to come to the attention of loonies looking for some Govt. controlled conspiracy or the like. I mean, sometimes, bad things just happen.
