I'm over sixty, have a couple years of college, and have been to some interesting places in the world. Some of my military experience was as a fire fighter, in which capacity, I got a bit of arson investigations training. That requires some knowledge of explosives. Even later in my career, as a Food Service Specialist, I served with an engineer unit and was sometimes brought in to photograph some operations because i had some particular skills in that area.Is there anything you're not a self proclaimed expert at? Your resume is more like that of a vagabond than one of a jack of all skills that enter a conversation.
I have been very interested in tracking the activities of certain domestic terrorist slime, especially white nationalists since the Civil Rights movement of the early sixties came to the fore in national headlines. I got REALLY interested in them after a couple of the useless drongos tried to off me in 1968.
So, it should come as no surprise that I have had occassion to do some research on terrorist techniques and on the ways in which they propogandize their movement and how they can so readily convince otherwise decent though dim-witted folk that they are actually patriots looking for answers while they insert their massive garbage into every discussion they can regarding 9/11.
There is even a stench of white nationalist woo in this thread, where some people, without a rather broad base of experience might mistake as facts and evidence. I am just immune to most of it because I have the mental capacity (I had an ASVAB score of 133 with a low area of 114 when I joined the Army) and the life experience and training to see through most of the crap at once, and the rest of it over time.
