Do you think, then, that we should reverse any decisions made purely on witness testimony? Grusch spent four years investigating this in his official position and is testifying under oath that he has seen incontrovertible evidence of it. That IS proof, and about as damn good testimony as we've ever had in our history.
But look, I know you're not going to change your mind, because you are as inflexible in your beliefs as a brick. I'm only making a point here because other, more mature folks may happen upon it and I want them to know how much of a mongoloid you are for coming into a UFO community just to fart out your brain-dead, parroted opinion for us all to ruminate in.
Lol, I couldn't care less about the insults of someone lacking critical thinking skills who upon being called out for lack of scientific knowledge tries to act intelligent without even understanding the concepts you are trying to talk about. If they provide actual evidence I will believe it. Until then I'm not buying it. You are free to continue believing anyone who makes am unsubstantiated claim before any evidence is provided. Oh, and I know a saying that you should really take to heart. "It's better to keep your mouth shut and be thought a fool, than to open your mouth and prove you are." Just a little friendly advice, hope it was eloquent enough for you to understand :)
Yes. Eyewitness testimony alone shouldn't be enough to convict anyone.
Ah, so then you think Bill Cosby should walk free, yes?
That wasn't just eye witness testimony...
You're really really bad at this.
And it's a bad comparison: "Did this guy rape women? Something that has happened before?" Compared to "These guys are saying they once say aliens." Something that has never been (truthfully) documented before.
'Mongoloid' is a slur - it was once used to refer to people with Down Syndrome, due to a C19th doctor comparing physical features of Down Syndrome parients with those of Mongolian people.
This doctor wrote that Down Syndrome was a reversion to an 'inferior race'.
It is both racist and ablist :/
I hear you, but to be completely honest almost all of our "insult" words and phrases are derived from pretty abhorrent places. There's really no point in substituting one for the other when you're trying to tell someone you think they are stupid.
