MUFON has been accused of a lot of things but forging videos is a new one to me. I doubt that it's true though, especially since this Examiner site seems to be filled with ridiculous stuff. I don't mean to be the evil Cap'n Debunker again but several of those videos have already been demonstrated to be hoaxes, including the first two. It's pretty obvious when you see the explanation of how they did it.

I'd heard that but I know a lot of people really want that one to be real.

I want it to be real too, Jo. We are never going to be able to prove it if people keep making hoax videos. Stupid hoaxers. They ruin all the fun for every one. Videos number 1 and 3 are obvious hoaxes. The first one was pathetic. Videos 2 and 4 were not so obvious. In fact, if it had not been for the first couple of hoaxes I probably would not have come to the conclusion that the others were hoaxes. Video four actually looks pretty good, but that may just be because somebody spent more time making it. This is the one that is in the video where it is being analyzed. I never even looked at numbers 5 and 6. i pretty much lost interestin it after I found out the first one was a fraud. Stupid hoaxers.

The obvious hoaxes negate what looks to be a good one..I think. It's just a better attempt and I wish people would stop the stupid game playing. It's hard enough without hoaxes to try and legitimize the topic.

I think you are right, Jo. If the first video is a fraud than it is a good bet that all the ones after it are frauds too...especially since they are all so similar to the first one. If the UFO sighting really did take place why would anybody create a fake video when they could just show the real thing? Stupid hoaxers.

They may not be stupid. They may be well paid to debunk a serious/not-stupid topic. I don't think hoaxers are in the I-wish-it-was-true category. I think they are (big generalization drum roll here. IMO..) scornful of people who talk about this topic seriously. It's like making a video game and embedding a terrible virus in it - the ultimate game is to REALLY destroy things - people's personal files, their actual computers...
Of course we have talked here (and talked and talked) that if the government is or has been in touch with alien craft or aliens or even cannot exclude UFO sightings as swamp gas ALL the time - that a little money paid out to such miscreants would be well spent.

There's always that possibility but to be honest, I think the government is as clueless as we are and that's part of the problem. As our 'elected' (use the term loosely) officials they're supposed to know what's going on in the world and protect us from it...as with terrorism. When you think about it (from the perspective of someone who's been abducted and half scared to death) these are criminal acts. Yet people 'romanticize' these encounters and see Disney ET's behind every space ship..wonderful travelers who are here to usher us into a better future where we'll get brand new robotic bodies and never have to die (because...that IS the real frightening encounter for so many..when we cease to be who we are now or cease to be period). What if the government only knows what we know? If you were visiting from another planet or dimension.. A..How do you know who IS government and who is just lab rat? B..You would have to understand our legal system to give any group particular weight (and we don't even understand our legal system most of the time) and C..You'd have to respect that legal system (if they respected our laws they wouldn't break them by kidnapping). We also assume they just arrive speaking our language..knowing our world..and understanding our ways of thinking. Heck..I don't even understand our ways of thinking and which trees grow universal translators?..bless science fiction for that. For every problem..we're the ones dreaming up the solutions..putting our own spins on it..taking our hopes and desires and making it 'their' objectives. We want to believe they are missionaries so we believe every scrap of junky material that crosses our path including bad videos. And we don't question how people hapappened to be standing around looking in the same place with cameras at the ready. Do YOU ever have a camera ready when you spot one? I think the government knows about as much as we think we do..and because they are the 'leaders' they have to know more than the population (the population always needs someone to blame and it's usually the government)..only reason I can think of for electing them..have you known one of them to actually earn their pay? So...maybe there is some 'push' on to find out first so they don't appear as idiots. Or maybe their amazing contactee telepaths (another good one) know they've actually come to eat all of the politicians and they're on the run. Just one more thing that has been tossed out there for us to ponder. Don't you suppose that perhaps the government is behind the govenrment conspiracies just to keep us so darned confused we never find the truth before they do? Makes perfect sense to me that the ones spreading the confusion would be them and we pay them for it
