Jason, we criticize because we care.

Jason, I think a lot of people criticize you guys so much is because we care.  We either care about you guys, or care about the cause in general.  A lot of us are angry f**ks, messed up and haven't cared about anything our whole lives.  Then we come across the truth and it's so confusing all the information out there.  Sometimes we're paranoid as a function of not trusting people for so long, have been screwed over, and can't sense good people from bad, so will call you guys gatekeepers.  And a lot of us are perfectionists.  Sometimes our criticism is valid.  Sometimes we're dead wrong.  Personally I criticize everyone in the movement, partly because I'm a depressed loser who doesn't know how to express myself properly, and what I'm feeling, and partly because I want to emphasize things I think need more coverage or clarification.  All this to say I don't think you should take things hard when people are criticizing you.  It's because we care about you guys.  This is a good thing I think.  I figure it's much better than getting no response at all.

Lakeshore, what you wrote is correct.  Some would have us think that it is okay to question 9/11 within certain paremeters, but certain people shall not be questioned, ever.  That is just wrong.  We have minds, and peaceful discussions and questions are not wrong. Criticism is not bad.  Alex, for example, cannot seem to take any criticism.  If that's true, then that is wrong.  We should all question everything and everyone without engaging in personal attacks.

I respectfully disagree. That's like saying "I beat my child, because I love him." A lot of you guys do not understand the pressure of having to be right all the time, because every word that comes out of your mouth is on the record. It has got to be tough. We should be encouraging people like Jason and Alex, not criticizing them. We all know that humans make mistakes, so why be harsh when it happens.

In NO way, am I saying that we give people passes for bad or wrong things they do, but the "patriot community" is the harshest group of people I have ever come across. I don't know if it is because of all of the paranoia, or dis-info agents trying to discredit the good people, but I have never seen as much hate in one group of people.  Don't get me wrong, I love all of you guys, but we need to come together, and stop airing the dirty laundry in public. If you don't like what Jason or Alex is saying, you should send them an email, or find a way to get them on the phone, just don't do it in a public venue. It does not help our cause whatsoever.

I'm sorry for my rant, I'm done now. I hope I didn't offend anyone, because that is not what I was going for.
