|content=I don't understand Mick. | |||
As you know, I am not a believer or experiencer. So this isn't being driven by having a dog in that fight. I do believe that the USG is not honest about things labeled UFO/UAP, and that it has had extensive denied programs that, at a bare minimum, at least involve UFOs as a cover story. | |||
But assume what you say is true. All of it. Wholesale. | |||
Then I want a clean crisp statement from the security services that this is a giant [[Nothing Burger|nothing burger]], and that Mass Delusion is what is going on. If this is a Mass Delusion: MAKE THAT CASE. I'm all ears. I'll help make it. Just convince me. | |||
You write "it's just people misinterpreting what they see in the sky, combined with a lazy sensationalist media and a gov that is aware that sometimes drones are used for bad things but not really familiar with this kind of flap". Well then, *you* are totally not understanding what is going on. | |||
Stipulate for a moment to EVERYTHING you are saying. What YOU are describing is an absurd actual security risk: a hysterical population led by incompetent mayors, with government and media that have lost so much credibility, that they cannot stop a simple mass delusion which can now easily be weaponized by our enemies. What you are describing is ALSO a security vulnerability to be exploited by our adversaries. | |||
You appear to have no idea what you are talking about because you are *self-inconsistent*. There is no 'just' in the above sir. The Mick West version of events is still an insane situation. You are simply describing a *second* insane security situation. I am not in NJ so I have no way to know which it is...but now I know that it is serious either way. | |||
Forgive me Mick, but you are not getting this. Happy to be proven wrong. | |||
I return to my original belief: this is a serious situation which, for unknown reasons, the USG is not eager to resolve in the minds of the public of which it is supposed to be their extension. The lack of resolution alone is a potentially dangerous situation having to do with public trust and panic. | |||
This is an insane situation no matter how you slice it. | |||

|content=Insane? No, @EricRWeinstein, it's just people misinterpreting what they see in the sky combined with a lazy sensationalist media and a gov that is aware that sometimes drones are used for bad things but also not really familiar with this kind of flap. It's simple and stupid. | |||
