Thanks again to everyone (thrid time now!) for helping me convince someone (and debate another person) that this 911 CT theory nonsense is bunk. An argument that has worked marvelously is as follows:
Why is it necessary to recast incompetence and partisan oportunism as evil foresight and conspiracy? What the administration has done has been bad enough, no need to add or subtract from it.
If they were so good at this conspiracy thing, then how come they didn't fake WMD in Iraq? Much simpler than 911, but didn't happen. If you just look at the administrations actions as coming from a place of incompetency and political opportunism this all makes sense. The CT viewpoint just does not fit the data.
Hope this helps anyone who, like me, debates this stuff all the time with friends and family.

Hmmm:
No, it isn't crap. It contains a lot of errors and hearsay and is by far not good enough to convince people like you that the official CT is crap.
The key issues? The cover-up is the key issue.
Call me crazy, but it sure seems like a statement of fact to me.
That's because the Nazis in Nuremburg were still alive.
A debate online is not about winning or losing. There is no prize. In situations like this you are either right or you're wrong.
How does that make Zaqwari a "psy-op campaign?" Your definition of evidence seems to be very lenient for your own opinion and rather ponderous for any opinion that doesn't suit you.

The CTer I used that one on told me that "well, there's evidence that they tried to fake WMDs..."
That they failed at this much smaller, alleged conspiracy didn't seem to faze him. He's an engineering student, too.
I wish I hadn't looked at that footage, that particular part makes me want to strangle Avery now more than ever.

What is the big picture? PLEASE inform us!
Big picture:
We are all helpless. The men in black have manipulated us all and are in control and are taking our tax money and making people hate us and the water tastes bad.
I'd leave for someplace else, but they might not have a nice Starbucks and stuff there.
Oh yeah, and Bush is Hitler, but Hitler was really a nice chap that was misunderstood and stuff, and like there was a war, and stuff, and a lot of people went to that war, and I'm the smartest one in the room and the rest of you just don't get it, 'cause you are a bunch of drones and. . . /
Oh no! My sarcasm chip is overloading! And I got the double sized one!
I just got done watching Alex Jones' "Rise of the Police State" dvd. I agreed to keep an open mind and take a look at it for a CTist that posts on another board I frequent.
Wow. I am not a violent person, but I really wanted to shove a brick in his face just to shut him up!
UGH!

You must love the part where he goes around and commit crimes on purpose just so he can show 'how much of a police state' america has become.

Like what?
Jaywalking?
Pulling the tags off of mattresses?
Spray-painting "Bush is a Reptoid" on walls?
Where can I watch this video? This sounds funny.
The reason those tags are on the mattresses is to track everybody.
Now go to the kitchen and throw out your milk, because it expired at midnight!

I think the CT's believe that if a theory IS falsifiable, it is a weakness, when it is actually a strength. All the conspiracy theories are bulletproof because no matter what new evidence becomes available, they can invalidate it by pulling some ad hoc explanation from the nether end of their digestive tracts.
So, in the magical realm of CT thought, the only theory that CAN'T be true is...the truth.

Bascailly he tries to bring a camera into places where cameras aren't allowed. Like he tries to go into a subway with a camera..THREATEN WITH ARREST. He goes to another area with no camera, THREATEN WITH ARREST ROFLCOPTER
This is his evidence that our country has turn into a police state.

So what the hell was the staff member blabbing about in Jones' video saying no cameras?

My guess, without having seen the clip in question, is that he was trying to get into a restricted area.
