9/11 Truthers About Town
Sunday, August 17th, 2008There’s this International Hostel located in Northeast. It has a giant blue-background sign up for Barack Obama — Obama’s name written in large white block letters. Someone has, in stages, been writing in the letters such things as “Tri-Lateral Commission”, “Council of Foreign Relations”, “9/11 Was an Inside Job”, “Infowars.com”, and “NO CHANGE!!!”
The sort of Insurgent 9/11 Truth plastering continues as stickers have been posted inviting the passer-by to some 9/11 Conspiracy websites — the same that are chalked about the town sidewalks. It is an interesting change from things that go on in the pastm, and go on right now, where supporters of the other candidate would scribble anti-Obama and pro-McCain messages. I assume that if there were a McCain sign of similar vintage somewhere in this city it would be vandalized in the same manner — CFR/Tri-Lateral/9-11 Inside Job — somehow they all blur into one.
I sort of want to catch the vandalizers in the act, because I want an answer as to what they think they are doing. Is someone going to happen by this sign and think “Wow. I never thought of that.” Will this direct them to Alex Jones’s website or the various blogs — where they will be introduced to that neat oragami trick with the dollar bill to show the toppling towers if you fold the money just right?
In front of the public library, a giant “9/11 Inside Job blahdeblah911truth.blogspot.com” has been chalked, as often is the case. Also as often is the case a man was hawking, while standing on this message, copies of “Street Roots”. This seems an incongruent message, even if it is not mutually exclusive that 9/11 Truthers would be concerned with the plight of the Homeless or that a homeless man might think that 9/11 Was an inside job. It’s dual purpose space, I suppose.
I am starting to think of referring to all manner of situations as “Inside Job”. My apples have gotten rotten, for instance. It was an Inside Job. I accidentally died my underwear pink in the Laundary. It was… an inside job. Run with it, I say.
