Pan Am Lockerbie "Bomber" Released

[Ecofarm]

So you are pretty sure that Bush is guilty of war crimes based on CT, but you are also pretty sure that the Lockerbie bomber is innocent because of CT.

You don't see CT working into some kind of worldview here?

[The Emperor Fabulous]

Abu Gharaib, waterboarding, black sites, and lying the country into war are not conspiracy theories.

[Ecofarm]

AG is a criminal act by uniformed personel.

Waterboarding three people and getting life-saving intel from them is not torture.

Black sites are a matter of international relationships.

Lying the country into war is CT.




Hear the bells of truth ring.

A conspiracy theory is a belief in a conspiracy without proof.

This applies neither to the belief that Bush committed crimes, because there is plenty of evidence crimes were committed. Nor does this apply to the Lockerbie "bomber" because the two key pieces of evidence that put him away have been shown to have been falsely obtained.

Did you even read the thread, ****? That objection was dealt with earlier in the thread.

Er, no it wasn't, "****." It's cute you think you're KH, but you're waaaay overestimating yourself there, kiddo.

As Mike H pointed out, all that you had done was gone around in circles. There was no addressing the point that, should he die, the appeal process would stop, which would mean his conviction would continue to stand and authorities would have no reason to reopen the investigation and try to find the "real culprits." All you did was express "so what?" to that concern. That wasn't dealing with anything.

There was no addressing the point that, should he die, ...

He's not dieing and his "alleged" crimes were such that he should have died in prison in any event. I'm not a big supporter of compassionate releases in general. It's quite clear now that there was no danger of the man dieing before the appeals process ran out. Even if he had died, what reason would the authorities have had to continue to look for the real killer in OJ fashion given the condition of his release.

[chequita guevara]

Oh, maybe because the people who blew up the plane are still running around unknown.

[MrFun]

I know where they're at. They're hiking the Appalachian Trail down in Argentina.

[DinoDoc]

Oh, maybe because the people who blew up the plane are still running around unknown.

The guy's conviction stands and he dropped his appeal, so as far as the legal system the person who blew up the plan is living the high life in Libya.

[chequita guevara]

Cuz the legal system is 100% accurate.

[Ecofarm]

That's TRUE!11!!

It's NOT 100%!!!!!!



So we should just disregard it when politically convenient.


Come to think of it, nothing is 100%. We should just ignore everything and make stuff up.

[chequita guevara]

Be quiet. The intelligent people are trying to have a discussion.

[DaShi]

Where?

[chequita guevara]

Shhh!
