I understand. In case you were curious what it would be like, the chorus of this song sums it up well.

so i got a PM from a random today:

Subject: have you ever had any hand to hand combat training?

as someone who has, there is 0 chance that 4 terrorists, if they are who the 9/11 commission reports says they are, lets a cockpit get overtaken by 38 americans. they were all supposedly armed with knives and each one of them would have had extensive hand to hand combat training. 4 people armed with knives defending a narrow cockpit space vs 38 untrained americans, 18 who were women. you actually think that passengers of flight 93 could have overtaken the cockpit? think battle of thermopylae.

srsly, please explain flight 93 to me.

before you respond, know that terrorist training is above the army level of training, some of them are more well trained than special ops forces.





thats it. thought it was interesting enough to share.

i responsed with


"I don't care"

he responds with


what i bet you'd say. funny how most ppl who win money at high stakes online poker thinks anybody who thinks the 9/11 commission report is true is an absolute moron.

can't explain something so you say i don't care. brilliant. the history channel didn't cover this so you have nothing to debunk it with? again brilliant. you ignorant pos should all be shot as far as i'm concern. keep giving money to a corrupt government and thinking they won't commit genocide on their own ppl to further their own agenda.




so it's def. biker

welcome back biker

Well first of all, the evidence that the passengers overtook the cockpit is shaky at best. From wiki:

"There is some controversy between some of the family members of the passengers and the investigative officials as to whether the passengers managed to breach the cockpit. The 9/11 Commission Report asserts that "the hijackers remained at the controls but must have judged that the passengers were only seconds from overcoming them".[21] Others claim that there is no doubt the passengers breached the cockpit.[52]"

But lets assume the passengers did in fact breach the cockpit for the sake of discussion. We're talking 38 people vs 4 here. I don't care what those men are trained in or how sharp their knives are or how many of the 38 were women. The idea of 38 overwhelming 4 should not raise any eyebrows here. This is entirely plausible especially when you take into account that the passengers were galvanized by the morbid reality that they were going to die if they did nothing. Here's an account of one of the passengers calling his wife from the plane and learning his fate if he did nothing:

"During one of Tom Burnett's calls, his wife informed him of the attacks on the World Trade Center and he replied that the hijackers were "talking about crashing this plane ... Oh my God. It's a suicide mission."[39] He ended his last call by saying, "Don't worry, we're going to do something."[39]

I assume that this information quickly permeated most if not all of the passengers.

I don't care if we're talking about 4 Bruce Lees with samurai swords. We're still talking 38 vs 4.

Countless times per year, I see upsets in sports that defy odds much greater than those passengers faced. Honestly, once those 38 people know they're gonna die, I would put them as a favorite to breach and take over that cockpit. It appears they never did, but they obviously ****ed up the hijacker's plans.

For those interested I would recommend reading the "Hijacking" and "Revolt" section of the wikipage. Very chilling stuff.

Some comments:

Well I think corrupt government is a redundant phrase. (If only the dictionary definition of government would back me up on this!)

And yes it's true that in the past governments have committed genocide on their own people. It's probably happening somewhere now, and it will happen in the future. The short-term interests of those in power will never perfectly align with the short-term or long-term interests of the populace. So **** is destined to always hit the fan.

I personally have never knowingly given one cent to the government. The government takes my money through force and violence. I.E. if I refuse to hand over my money to the government they fine me or put me in prison.

not sure how i ever played this ******ed game.

did pretty well for my first day playing in god knows how long, but almost broke my new dual 28'' monitor setup in a mini fit of rage from some stupid hands.

this never happens in MTTs or NL.
when i lose at that, it's more of a sad, defeated feeling.


im glad wcoops are on and i have an excuse to play those instead tomorrow.
