Reply #19: does it sound even remotely likely to be true? [View All]

common sense, people, this story makes about as much sense as the one where it was claimed that bad guys were hijacking peruvian locals and boiling them down for fat to make beauty cream

i couldn't believe the long thread we had about THAT and then a few weeks later of course it's revealed that the story was pretty much a hoax created by one attention-seeking peruvian police officer

incredible claims require more than somebody with, literally, a weird name makes the incredible claim

i would be surprised if anybody named "weird koops" or "wierd knoops" even exists, if he was for real, maybe they could figure out one spelling for his name in the article

there are always negative people and internet hoaxsters in this world, particularly cruel was the hoax that the 11 men killed in the explosion were seen floating on an escape raft...a hoax posted the very first day of the crisis

i don't believe the skimmers are just sitting on the sidelines, and indeed, another poster has posted a link w. pix to show they are not just sitting there...
