Arturo Alva Moreno, the 9/11 victim that never existed

Story about a illegal immigrant who is suspected to have either died in the Twin Tower attack or have used it (how would he predict it?) to restart his life. Thoughts?

Someone had found Arturo’s wallet in the rubble, hidden beneath the twisted metal and scattered debris.

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAAAAAAAAAAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAAH

FUCKING HELL WE CAN'T FIND BONES 'N SHIT BUT MULTIPLE WALLETS HAVE BEEN FOUND IN THE DEBRIS? WERE THEY FIREPROOF OR SOMETHING?

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA

 

Haha I don't know. I got this emailed to me from a friend and would like to ask for thoughts about this because from a foreigner stand point it seems really weird somehow. Details that doesn't make sense.

 

I think haha people have the right to question stuff. Sometimes it turns out right sometimes it is just pure stupidity. But sad if these immigrants who's life was lost and never remembered. Or that if they worked on the lower levels of the building and their body was never found is just thought provoking. RIP to those who died and served.

what happened to building 7 anyway?

Never discuss with idiots, first they drag you at their level, then they beat you with experience.
 

1. Controlled demolitions take weeks to set up and thousands of pounds of explosives, wires, and equipment. 

2. There were no explosions in the buildings

3. Thermite cannot cut though vertical steel beams without special equipment

So in summary: it was because of debris from the towers falling and faulty fire prevention systems

 

Nam ut adipisci et voluptatibus explicabo. Perspiciatis corrupti sunt dolor. Maiores repellendus quo aliquam mollitia.

Never discuss with idiots, first they drag you at their level, then they beat you with experience.
