September the 11th 2001 was a tragic day. It was also a glorious day for anyone looking to cease a great deal of power and control. Regardless of who was responsible it is not debatable that it gave more power and control to the government than any time in prior history. In fact the constitution was blatantly disregarded from that point on.
"The Constitution is not an instrument for the government to restrain the people, it is an instrument for the people to restrain the government - lest it come to dominate our lives and interests."
- Patrick Henry
We also know that the events of that day did not unfold the way we were told. Dose this mean the people who brought us the omissions and distortion were involved? No, it simply means that it was covered up or concealed for some reason.
Will the truth every come out? “When good people in any country cease their vigilance and struggle, then evil men prevail.”
Pearl S. Buck
“Eternal vigilance is the price of liberty.”
Wendell Phillips

The rabbit hole goes pretty damn far. Like Leonard said follow the money. If you follow the money, you will find that it doesn't lead to Al Quida.
Whatever you believe did or did not happen on September 11, it is obvious that our government took full advantage of an opportunity to exploit a unfortunate situation to gain even more control over us.

It's easier for some people to discredit the messengers than it is to search for the truth. I personally don't believe 9/11 was an inside job but wouldn't have a problem with it being investigated more. 9/11 isn't the only example of this. The environment is another. We obviously need to be more concerned about it (another issue which is presumed liberal or wacko) but anytime it is mentioned, all the right can say is Al Gore is an idiot. I give no opinion of Al Gore here but many of these issues are more important than "what does my side say".

Its true that since the events of 11 September 2001 the federal government has become increasingly intrusive in an extra-constitutional sense, however, it isn't the worse time in our history that this has occurred.
Two events come quickly to mind which are easily as representative of an intrusive federal government. One such event are the acts of the federal government during and post the American War of the 1860s. Another such event are the acts of the federal government relative to the Alien and Sedition Acts during the Adams administration.
It is the responsibility of the People to enforce the chains of the Constitution on the federal government.

We don't. We know it goes further than anything imaginable. Trying to take everything in is like taking a drink of water from a firehose. I don't know everything that happened or didn't happen. But I do know the official conspiracy theory is a lie, a joke, a big steamy pile of shiiiiit used to get us rallied for their wars on whoever they deem fit.
To the people who call us "nuts" and "crazy" have you ever looked into all this, and I'm not talking about the lies that have been spewed from Popular Mechanics which were all debunked by Dr. David Ray Griffin. Wanna know who he is, just google search him, then google video to watch as he takes apart the fairy tale we were led to believe.
It's not just teenagers or whoever you think knows what really happened. It's head military men/women, former Bush cabinet members, ex-MI5 agents, FBI, Police, Firefighters to name a few. Being opened minded to everything lets a person take in information from other sources and can use facts to evidence to see which one works best.

The "Golden Rule" prevails, as always.
He who has the gold, makes the rules.
Follow the money trail.
You want the truth?
Power as translated into money still controls the world.
