Open Letter to Richard Gage

Wrote this to box boy - I'm sure it'll be ignored but it felt good to get off my chest anyway:

Quote:
Tomorrow is September 11, 2011. Ten years have passed since the murder of 2,996 people in NYC, Washington DC and Shanksville, PA. Scores have passed since that date due to illness or injury sustained on that day. Thousands of family members continue to mourn to this day, and will as long as they are alive. Millions still show the scars. In the ensuing years, a fringe group of people have used 9/11 as a hobby. Some have profited - at times greatly, on the deaths of these innocent people.



The time to curtail that way of life is now. Dylan Avery, one of the most outspoken members of the ill-named 'truth movement' - has come forward and stated that he no longer believes even the things that he portrayed in his film(s) "Loose Change". Charlie Veiss, a formerly prominent member of the ill-named 'truth movement' recanted. In his words, he hit the 'wall of absurdity'. A wall that grows larger and larger by the day.



Richard Gage. This name needs to be added to the growing list of truthers who recant and realize their way of life is harmful to others. This is not a fantasy world. Real people died that day. Real people saw planes. Real people lost loved ones.



NO real people saw explosives.

NO real people heard explosives.

NO real people planted evidence.



The claims put forth on your website, AE911truth.org are not factualy accurate. Collapse of WTC 7 did not take 7 seconds. You know this. The dust cloud was in no way pyroclastic. You know this. Freefall speed isn't an indication of controlled demolition any more than a cream pie is. There was no molten steel. You know this. Mr. Gage, you are far too intelligent to actually believe this stuff. Questioning the government is fine. We all do it, for good reason. But this is not one of those times. Nobody planted anything. It is physically impossible. You know this. You yourself finally had to admit that a plane hit the Pentagon. Since every aspect of 9/11 is connected, does this not open up the possibility that you might have been wrong about explosives?



Please, for the sake of the 10th anniversary, for the sake of the people you are fleecing, put an end to this. Like Avery, I believe you started this as a hobby and found yourself in over your head, unable to stop. That's understandable. It happens to all of us at some point. However, when it does, it generally does not affect others. The 'truth' movement does affect others. Please, put an end to it. Make yourself an honest living again, if possible. Do it for the memory of those who died that day.
