Drudge Retort: Red Meat for Yellow Dogs
Monday, November 02, 2009

The USS New York, a warship built with steel salvaged from the World Trade Center, has arrived in New York City. The ship sailed up the Hudson River near Ground Zero and fired a 21-gun salute as the families of 9/11 victims observed the ceremony. "It's a transformation of it from something really twisted and ugly," said Rosaleen Tallon, whose brother was a firefighter killed in the attacks. "I'm proud that our military is using that steel."

You talking about the P3 Orion incident back in 2001?

Not exactly Bush's fault that one. Unless the highly trained Bush the Jet Jock was flying one of those Chinese interceptors that ran into the P3. I don't think we can pin this one on him.

And we did get the plane back.

Bush did offer two apologies to the Chinese over that incident. "Kow Tow City".

Buffalo Bob told us the steel was all immediately shipped to China. He couldn't be full of shit, could he?

Zat you would be remiss to question Buffalo Bob, he is the definition of one not open minded in his beliefs.

It's crazy to use that steel because it has still got thermite residue in it and the whole ship might spontaneously combust.

The USS New York should have been a galaxy class star cruiser.

Wow, more symbolism over substance. We can keep boo hooing over 9/11, but we cannot secure our borders or have a comprehensive entry/exit tracking program for the creeps coming into this country.

Symbolism over substance, no wonder we have such illogical creeps running this country, driven mainly be ideology and a quest to stay in power. Al Frankenfurter to the rescue.

It has been well known that there was to be a ship made from the steel at the WTC. It has also been well known that most of the remaining steel was shipped to China. Some of the steel was shipped to China, and some was made into this ship. Not all the steel was contaminated with thermate, and some of the steel was still molten weeks after the event. These have always been my statements about the steel from the WTC.

It's a warship, which means violence is its purpose. According to your logic, they made the ship out of the perfect materials for the job.

I hope there isn't a paper fire on that ship. It may sink like the Titanic.

"Buffalo Bob told us the steel was all immediately shipped to China. He couldn't be full of shit, could he?"

He also told us he see's invisible UFO's, Lunar smokestacks and that car antenna's are the most lethal self defense weapon ever created.

Why believe bob?

" and some of the steel was still molten weeks after the event."

No, sorry you got to back that up with a link.

I wish the guy who got it with the spoon would have been armed with a car antenna. That would have forever settled that whole debate.

Other than that:
-Most 9/11 steel was sold to China
-Official story of 9/11 bullshit along with 'molten steel'

Bobs right
*VOMIT*
(sorry, it makes me sick to say that)

You weren't convinced by the youtube video, Danni? I'm shocked.

I think it's interesting that the relative number of scientists who conclude that the 9/11 truthers' "evidence" is full of shit is about the same as the relative number of scientists who feel the global climate change deniers' "evidence" is full of shit.

I was hoping a former Navy man might know. Anyone else know?

These two towers on the ship. Don't recall ever seeing something like them:

graphics8.nytimes.com

They probably contain radar and communications antennaes. What we called the 'mack' (combination of mast and stack) on a frigate.

Sorry, I didn't mean to be flip before.

NP Goatman

I went to the USS New York site to try to find the info, but they offer none anywhere.

Substantial looking warship, that's for sure.

Substantial looking warship, that's for sure.

More substantial than the one I was stationed on. But it was simply ASW (anti submarine warfare) not anything else.

You think they structured those towers that way to be symbolic?

Could they be smokestacks like on big rigs only made like that to deflect radar You know like they made that stealth fighter. Just curious.

Larry

You think they structured those towers that way to be symbolic?

No, they did it for two reasons: Streamlining and stealth. Look at my ship and that one. All the structures on the older one create a lot of wind resistance. Now note the angular structure of the newer one. That give it a lower radar profile like the angular shaped stealth B2 bomber and F117 fighter.

You are right, Larry. Our posts crossed.

What does it matter? You have proven over and over that you will choose the most outlandish and farfetched explanation over the simplest one everytime.

So why do you care what anyone else sees?

And never addressing the fact that you kept painting a very unlikely scenario and refusing to acknowledge the obvious more likely one.

The scenario was very likely to happen. A man attacks a man with a knife and the guy being attacked has a gun. What is the unlikely part? If the man with the gun makes a move toward his gun, he is likely to be killed--especially if the man with the knife attacks from the back.

Talk about reaching for improbable explanations. That is the most ridiculous statement I have ever seen on the DR. Even more ridiculous that a vertical exhaust plume would create a horizontal shadow on a cloud. The cut through the cloud looks precision--the exhaust looks ragged. Your explanation is as weak as ever Punk Boy.

OK. I'll bite. (but we'll stay on the original subject, car antennae. I'm not playing moving goalposts tonight. Sorry, bOoB) The unlikely part is that his car antennae (most likely on the car in the garage) is easier to access than his gun (probably in a drawer in the house)

Well, bOoB, in the real world, tilting a camera 90 degrees is not that far fetched. About 20% of the pictures I take are in portrait mode.

Well, bOoB, you proved beyond the shadow of a doubt with the geosynchronous satellite argument that you brain is incapable of handling even the most simple geometric configurations. I can't help you there. Just because basic geometry is beyond your grasp doesn't mean it ceases to exist.

I don't understand quantum physics. Does that give me the right to invoke invisible sky fairies to explain it?

A Ninja Master could woop a car antennas ass. So, instead of a gun, why don't you become a Ninja master, Bob? You could beat an assailants ass without a weapon! You could teach others how to do it. Then you'd have cash for Denny's.

BuffaloBob and Goatman's ongoing debates -- whether or not a formation on the lunar surface of the Moon may actually be a smokestack, the existence of a blue ghost caught on video at a gas station in Ohio, had there been a rocket fired into the WTC just prior to one of the hijacked jets crashing into the building on 9/11 AND the question which has been, and will forever be, debated until the end of time -- is a car antenna in your hand a better weapon than a gun you can't reach.

And you want the members of their fan club to be kept hanging in suspense, Larry? What's the matter with you, kid?

how me where I say he HAS a car antenna PuNk BoY.

Again? Why?

Get someone else to jump through your hoops, bOoB.

I still don't know what that blue thing was at the gas station. PuNk BoY says he saw it duplicated, but fails to post the link to the duplication. I say all the links saying they duplicated the effect with bugs on the lens showed the legs and antenna of the bugs, and did not duplicate the effect. Again, PuNk BoY says he knows what it was--not me--and he fails to show the duplication of the effect. He isn't on the rig now---let's hear his excuse---wanna bet it involves jumping through hoops?

A few years back when I was doing a teaching stint at DISAEUR outside of Stuttgart, Germany, I was driving up the bahn to go visit folks and friends in Belgium. Off to the east as I was passing through the environs of Stuttgart, I noticed this large hill or mound. Had an odd shape to it, didn't seem natural. Later learned this:

Birkenkopf, "Monte Scherbelino"

The locals call this hill Monte Scherbelino which means something like Mount Shards but in an odd childish way.

Originally the hills height was 471.00 meters (1545.28 ft) over sea level. In the years 1953 to 1957 the hill was raised plus 40.20 meters (131.89 ft) to 511.20 meters (1677.17 ft) by accumulating 1.5 million cubic meters (52.972 million cubic ft) of debris from the 53 air strikes against Stuttgart, which then had been destroyed to 45 percent. The Birkenkopf is the highest elevation of the surrounding hills of Stuttgart. On the top they put some prominent facade pieces of the destroyed houses.

This hill after the Second World War accumulated from debris of the town, stands as a memorial for the victims and as a warning to the living.

Could be y'a know. The Nazis were working on flying saucer-type craft before and during WWII. When it became evident that Germany was losing the war, the Nazis assembled a huge fleet of these saucers and sent them to the back side of the Moon to establish a series of Moon bases. There they await, building, breeding, waiting for the right moment to strike and re-establish the Third Reich and world domination.

I, for one, would never use killfiles on you, BuffaloBob. I enjoy your posts too much.

While your story subjects are many times out of the mainstream -- to say the least -- they provide me a lot of fun and oftentimes knowledge. Such as with the formation you said looked like a smokestack on the lunar surface, I was encouraged to research (and learn much from) various articles on space and the Moon I probably never would have read if not for the prompting your topic provided.

In trying to "prove you wrong" I was the one who ended up learning many things I hadn't known before -- a lot of which came from reading others' reasoning as to why, or why not, one thing or another you allege could or could not be possible.

So, no way, no killfiles for BuffaloBob -- at least as far as I'm concerned. : )

Actually the dates were from Dec21-22 since the days vary because of the international date line. It would still be Dec 21 for several hours in some places after your deadline. Besides--are you sure you want a midnight dinner? Sounds pretty risque.

I honestly want to see an occasion where a soldier with an assault rifle faces off against a soldier holding a car antenna and loses.

Is that sort of like when people who are really interested in martial arts claim that a ninja with a sword could kill a regular person with a machine gun?

I just watch cartoons, see the 16 ton block drop and think, the coyote should have had an ACME antenna.

Lay off the LSD---it is starting to affect you in negative ways.

Funny thing this 9/11:

Born and raised in Brooklyn I watched the twin towers built from scratch. Watched them disappear as well. The loss of the buildings was, and is, more devastating than the 3200 people lost, to me at least, being a New Yorker.

As far as the rest of the nation: Pre Sept 11 not one conservative outside of New York could give a rat's ass about New York City or New Yorkers. As far as they were concerned, New York, and New Yorkers could drop dead.

This tragedy was only an excuse for the right wing lunatics to launch a war against the wrong country. That didn't matter to them. This was, and is, a financial opportunity disguised as Patriotism and sympathy (false sympathy). It is another opportunity for them to practice what they do best...hate.

I say back to these fraudulent ?patriots?- Fuck you.......Take your USS New York and shove it up your asses.

Your beliefs include magic appearing, moving fading and disappearing smudges on a still picture----people can be in two places at the same time--vertical contrails casting horizontal shadows--- punking out on your word about the gas station---smoky oxygen starved fires melt steel---and that guns you can't get to are effective defense weapons. LOL

;-)

Sane people speaking now, bOoB. Wait a while until crazy hour begins and I'll thrash you as you so enjoy. I'll catch up with you later.

You think you are sane PuNk BoY? LOL

;-)

I'm really confused about this car antenna thing... missed out on the original post.

Does someone have that handy? I really don't feel like hunting for it but I'm curious none the less...

Redial

This is the post I posted that started it all.

Guy pulls a gun first--takes your gun. I would say any criminal that tries to hold someone up with a knife is a fool, but if he has a knife and you make a move, you could be sliced pretty bad and there's no guarantee you shoot him or don't have the gun used on you. No guarantee the bullet won't go through him and kill someone else. I'd rather have a car antennae than a gun in that situation. Even a rock or a club.

Somehow people construe that I am saying a car antenna is not as good as a gun in self defense. No--what I am saying is that if the guy has a knife on you and you go for the gun--chances are you won't make it---you'll be cut pretty bad, and maybe killed. If you can get to your gun, a gun is much better than a car antenna---the problem is getting to your gun. In addition I am saying there is no guarantee he won't take your gun and use it on you, or that your shot won't kill an innocent bystander, and I am saying I would rather have a car antenna than shoot someone innocent.

Here is a good video on a knife against a gun, and this is face to face. If the guy with the knife attacks from behind, the chances of getting to your gun are lessened dramatically. Keep in mind that in the post highlighted above, the gun is in a holster, not in the mans hand as shown in the video. Being in a holster makes it even less effective against a knife.

Goatman is the only one on DR that doesn't know Buffalo Bob is just fucking with his head. LOL

Somehow people construe...

Somehow? LOL Maybe because you brought up the very stupid and unlikely scenario that the car antennae was the only other option. Even as everyone told you how unlikely it was and asked what if the situation was reversed, you remained on your same stupid bOoB-track.

Don't act surprised, idiot. You created this monster. It got out of hand (in your eyes). Too fucking bad. You made it. You deal with it. You live with it.

I love it. The entire DR has been avenged of your BS, bOoB. LOL!

If so, why is da bOoB whining right now, ringo? LOL

LOL Maybe because you brought up the very stupid and unlikely scenario that the car antennae was the only other option.

How does your twisted mind come up with the idea that a car antenna was the only other option? Even in the post I said "even a rock or a club". I t could have been an apple pie---anything is better than a gun you can't get to. Answer the question PuNk BoY---show us your brilliance and how I restricted the only other option to a car antenna.

Even as everyone told you how unlikely it was and asked what if the situation was reversed, you remained on your same stupid bOoB-track.

WTF are you talking about PuNk BoY? You are babbling and making no sense at all. If WHAT were reversed? If the guy had a gun and attacked a guy with the knife? The guy with the gun out and in his hand wins---again--WTF are you talking about?

Don't act surprised, idiot. You created this monster. It got out of hand (in your eyes). Too fucking bad. You made it. You deal with it. You live with it.

Deal with stupid people like yourself who simply twist words and lie? NP. LOL

Avenged? How so---do you know what the word means?LOL

Waiting on you.

Oh G-d I think I am gonna rip the car antenna off of My car and commit seppuku with it. At least I will try I don't think the flimsy thing has any real killing power but beats the holy hell out of reading about it on the Drudge Retort. Sighhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh

At least I will try I don't think the flimsy thing has any real killing power ...

It is quite effective against Cincinatti blue ghost angels, I hear -- even more so than a handgun.

"Somehow people construe that I am saying a car antenna is not as good as a gun in self defense.

Ok, I think I see where you are coming from. You are using a car antenna as a metaphor for some form of club in hand? My current car antenna is a bunch of wire imbedded in my rear window, and the deadly version in my '65 Dodge Polara was firmy attached to the vehicle and as such not very usefull as a defensive weapon.

Pretty scenario specific argument though. If I had the drop on you with the gun would it matter if you had a knife or an antenna? Or a baseball bat?

The problem with guns is the same as bear spray... if you don't understand the concept you might be better off with nothing.

Pretty scenario specific argument though.

Just as dozens of others have been telling da bOoB for a year. Yet his reply was always, "What would you rather have . . ." rather than acknowledge that his little scenario was very, very unlikely.

It grew and now da bOoB is living with a monster he created. I love it and I presume many others on the DR who put up with his BS are loving it as much as I am.

"You are using a car antenna as a metaphor for some form of club in hand?"

Bob has admitted a feather you could get to, would be better than a gun you can't.

That's the sum total of the argument.

No---the gun wins.

Which is exactly the point I was making. People think having a gun will protect them in all situations--often having a gun can be a negative, such as having it taken and used against you.

I don't think I ever used afeather as being better than a gun you can't get to, but a feather would be equal to a gun you can't get to. The point is, if you can't get to your gun---it is no good for defense.

"I don't think I ever used afeather as being better than a gun you can't get to"

I asked you once, directly. You said yes.

"The point is, if you can't get to your gun---it is no good for defense."

Same for a feather.

The point is, if you can't get to your gun---it is no good for defense.

And the other point which you NEVER acknowledged was that it wasn't very likely that the gun would be less accessible than the car antennae.

I can't tell you how much I am enjoying watching you squirm and try to back out of this one, bOoB. LOL

I'm not backpedaling on anything PuNk Boy---I stand by my original post as posted in #107. That yuou are too stupid to understand it is no surprise to me. I see you punking out on the explanation as to what was so unlikely about the scenario as posted. That's because you are a PuNk Boy.

"yuou are too stupid"

Classic.

LOL

126 was for 124 but works for 125 as well.

Got it? lol

That because you are too stupid to realize that I could have said ANYTHING--car antenna--toad--teddy bear---ANYTHING. I'm just glad I don't have to go through life with your defective brain PuNk Boy

Not that there is anything wrong with that.

You have a point. There is an old saying that there is a big difference between having a gun and being armed.

A surprising number of people allow assailants to kill them with their own weapons. They just can't pull the trigger. Same thing happens in my little part of the world... people carrying enormously powerful weapons get killed by animals because they just don't pull the trigger.

In my mind, simple gun handling requires practice.

Defensive gun handling requires a LOT of practice.

None of that means anything without situational awareness. If you get knifed when you had a gun you probably should have spent the money on a bodyguard...

Everyone understood the point you were making, bOoB. But you never, ever acknowledged (even now you don't) how very unlikely your "what if" scenarios were.

So stop playing the fucking "poor little old misunderstood me" role. It's pathetic

Have we already cycled through da bOoBs very limited repetroire and are due for another 'smokestacks' thread? I think his next one will be 'all rights come from the government'. He hasn't done that one in a while.

But I could be wrong.

I never acknowledge unlikely scenarios because I don't see anything unlikely in any scenario I have posted. How about you point out something that is unlikely. Let's see some logic from you for once.

duh. You've proven dozens of times you have no memory capabilities.

How about you do it for yourself, you lazy fuck. Just like a democrat -- "Do it for me. Do it for me" Grow up

I just blew up the ship on My computer and the "Towers" apear to be the frontal one it looks like it either has an whirlygig type of antenna and the back side looks to be a smoke stack. Instead of the normal bent holey maxi pad style antenna You are used to seeing it looks to be a round one that rotates on an axis. The other looks to be a smoke stack insulated as to prevent a radar lock on it. I could be out of My mind but that's what it looks like.

Wow!! That's gonna take some serious dilation.

Will that be with or without KY?

"Look at this cut away of the ship"

Don't forget to go to the clothing, drinkware, gifts, and memorabilia links so you can buy all sorts of overpriced crap and show your patriotism and so you too can say:

"Ich bin ein New Yorker."

There goes another 1 billion of your tax dollars, just for the assault ship itself.

let's do something majestic and patriotic and just not talk about what really happened. maybe the little people will forget and not ask too many questions. they all have short term memory anyway...

Damn good thing this ship was commissioned under the Bush administration, Obama would have given it to the United Nations along with an apology...

Yeah!
Praise Bush......especially the way he decided that the man who killed 3000 American Civilians 'wasn't a priority'.

the "Towers" apear to be the frontal one it looks like it either has an whirlygig type of antenna

It's most likely a reflector of sorts that make is look like several hundred ships in the vicinity on the enemies radar or distorts the actual location of the ship.
