Because if it was you'd see a revolution in demolition work at the moment. Lighting a fire on the third floor or whatever surely seems a cost effective way to bring a high rise building down.

Support columns don't just snap, and especially not all at the same time initiating a symmetric collapse. If they did you'd see a hell of a lot of buildings collapsing around the world.

Even if it was possible you'd have to agree it would be very unlikely, and when it happens 3 times in a day it's time to get suspicious.

Building 7 is a good example of people believing the impossible. I guess as a defense mechanism to the even more impossible alternative.

"Dr Wayne Carver" is obviously a play on words and the man is 2 steps shy of being mistaken for John Goodman. They even have a witness named "Bittman" out there. Hurricane Sandy, Sandy Hook, the "fake island" Sandy. Seems to be a theme going round.

Yes, but for whatever reason most folks think this Pax Americana is the norm and will last forever.

The right to defend yourself and your property should be enough of an argument though. Be it against criminals, the government or foreign governments. It really is unfathomable to me that people actually expect the police to help you out. Not only is it unrealistic due to resources and response times, but it's not even part of their job. Their job is to protect and serve the law, not you.

My name is Alex too

The joke is of course that he's right about a lot of things he says, but his behavior make him look like a nut. Me and my friends were laughing hard, but also crying a bit on the inside when this is the image created of a pro gun advocate. A loud, rambling lunatic who thinks there's going to be a war with the government.

But of course, he wouldn't be allowed on Piers if he didn't fit the script.

‘We called upstairs, we started a search around the White House for the codes, and he finally confessed that he had misplaced them. He couldn’t recall when he had last seen them.’

The man never was too big on telling the truth.

Though, I'd have thought selling nuke secrets to the Chinese was a slightly bigger deal than losing a replaceable code key that probably can't be used by anyone else. Maybe he sold them the codes too, which is why he can't recall. It doesn't really say they ever found them again.

Funny they should use "gargantuan" too. This variant of "enormous" specificially referes to: stresses greatness of capacity, as for food or pleasure: a gargantuan appetite.

It's a Lewinsky story in disguise.
