I always knew things didn't make sense about 9/11. I never believed a plane hit the Pentagon. I believed that the terrorists hit the Pentagon with a bomb, and then our government blamed it on a plane. I believed our Air Force shot a terrorist hijacked plane that alledgely hit the Pentagon to protect our people, but had to have a story to avoid the backlash
I used to say "I don't believe our government would ever do anything like 9/11!" And that was my stupid reasoning.
Other conspiracies like "Sandy Hook" I just thought "that's crazy" without taking a second to research myself.
How about you? What did you tell yourself?
I've always been awake, sometimes I would come up on something so awful I would have to back away for a bit because it was hard to accept that people could really be so terrible.
