Whoops - the robbery location was actually in Nanuet, NY and I don’t think I can edit my post ¯_(ツ)_/¯
“Die hard: On the Brink”
I know someone who worked with the two police officers who were killed. He was in their unit, but was off work that day. A lot of people have forgotten how evil the Weather Underground was. Cuomo granted one of them clemency last year.
9/11 was just an over due completion of a INSIDE hit JOB on Joseph Trombino
This is what I'm here for
What’s crazy is that the ring leader was Tupac’s dad.
Yeah, while I get it could definitely be conspiracy fodder, this turn of events does make sense.
Dude works private security, survives a televised and serious armed robbery. Stays at the same company, and becomes valued enough to work security for another high value asset, since he has experience surviving in stressful and emergent scenarios. Same thing happens, gets assigned to a similarly high value asset, and it gets attacked. This time, he unfortunately doesn't survive.
Still didn't get the hint
As Tyler says in Fight Club, “On a long enough timeline, the survival rate for everyone drops to zero.”
The three letter agency (not THAT one, the other one) needed the funds from the bank job to fund [redacted] and [redacted] was the [redacted] guy who didn't know it but he was originally supposed to be 'managed' by [redacted] but the [redacted] had an unrelated cardiac event and was subsequently [redacted] after the opportunity was lost. During his recovery [redacted] activated protocol [redacted] on the subject in question to mitigate personal responsibility for operation [redacted]. In order to eliminate suspicion & possible repercussions of his failure [redacted] conducted [redacted] with funding from the Kingdom of S[redacted] A[redacted] on September 11 2001. Follow-on operations at the convenience of the U[redacted] S[redacted] are seen as fortuitous to the K[redacted]S[redacted]A[redacted] due to problems of non compliance within O[redacted]P[redacted]E[redacted]C[redacted].
Rep report for [redacted] provided by [redacted].
What's really crazy is that the good citizens of San Francisco voted for two of these scumbags' kid as DA, despite his clearly announcing he was going to stop prosecuting criminals. Fortunately he was recalled this year.
No, see, you're not actually supposed to believe to the conspiracies posted here....

A few things about this:
I played on the same team as the Man with the Red Bandana
Also, Morgan Stanley (who I worked for at the time) was the largest tenant. They lost exactly one person, the security guard who went through to make sure everyone was out.
Both have interesting back stories
It might be time for him to seek other employment.
There's a website called Weather Underground that actually does weather and when I first heard about it i was like, "What? What!?"
Chesa Boudin is that guy??
Old buddy was just twitching all the time
Replying to myself:
Did fucking haliburton and kbr conspire with the KSA to pay advisors to GWB to recommend invading Afghanistan and Iraq?
Jesus I have to get over to r/conspiracy. This is my new life
Damn. What a chad
yw, hahaha
Not his bio father, fyi.
I like to think as he looked up from helping people into the stairwell, and saw the second plane approach the window, he couldn't help but laugh and curse god one last time.
Jet fuel can’t melt steel beams
That makes me think of the family in Colorado who were killed when a steel girder fell from the bridge they were passing under. Sheared the roof off the car and killed the family.
The crazy thing was the dad had been in one of the towers on 9/11 and moved his family to Colorado afterwards to be safer...
Morgan Stanley lost 13 people on 9/11. Rick Rescorla was the head of security and is presumed dead, his two deputies and a guard in Morgan Stanley's employ were also killed.
My neighbor was a leasing agent for the Port Authority who rented out much of the office space in the WTC. He lived but I never saw him again after 9/11. I was told by others that he just drank and never left the house, a few months later he and his wife moved away. Two years later I moved away.
If you want to cry your eyes out, read this about Rescorla.
Why in the fuck did he grant clemency to a terrorist?
Cuz it happened 40 years ago, the man was the getaway driver. Punative jail is not a functional system, but despite that the man has done good while in prison.
Every 10 years but yea
What part of what he wrote sounded like he was believing the conspiracy posts?
Yeah, for the record, I don't believe in any conspiracy theories. It just makes sense to me that someone who has experience being a private security officer when it comes to assets of high importance (Like a large set of commerce buildings in a financial district) would be trusted with being ground security for another asset of high importance.
"I'm not a monster, I just help terrorists get from point A to point B"
I am on your side. I also think it makes sense. That's why I don't get why that guy responded to you like you were drinking the conspiracy Kool-aid when you were kinda doing the opposite - being rational and applying deductive logic to what appears to be a "too-crazy" coincidence.
That's nice, dear. But this is the first I've seen it because I don't spend every waking moment here.
A simple "I haven't seen it before" would surfice.
When I read the title, I thought it must be that time of the month again.
"You win this time, you bastard."
Some people just can't take a hint.
Kinda overkill for just one guy, wiley as he was
Because his son grew up to be politically connected
EDIT: for those who don't like the source, here's the NY Times article.
I'll let you look up the dozens of other articles on your own.
> Chesa Boudin was 14 months old when his parents were arrested over the Brinks robbery. He was raised by Bill Ayers, the Weather Underground founder who worked closely with Barack Obama. After graduating from Yale University, Boudin served as a translator for Venezuelan dictator Hugo Chavez. He worked as a public defender before his election to San Francisco district attorney.
> Chesa Boudin lobbied Cuomo last year to grant clemency to his father, saying he hoped the governor "will show courage and mercy."
> Boudin said on Monday that his "heart is bursting" from Cuomo’s decision. Boudin is part of a wave of left-wing prosecutors who swept into local office in recent years promising criminal justice reform. He has come under fire for releasing inmates and deferring prosecution for a variety of lower-level crimes. His critics have blamed the policies for a crime surge in the Bay Area.
Yup. It's a play on the name of the terrorist group.
This is the dumbest take I've ever seen, holy shit
Leftist elites are shockingly tolerant of terrorism so long as it supports their ideological cause. I mean right wingers do it too, don't get me wrong but if there was any confusion about one side having moral superiority... they don't.
Bernardine Dohrn is the clearest example of this. A bone fide terrorist who somehow got herself a teaching job at a top law school years later. For all the death and destruction that was directly tied to her, she somehow managed to get away serving just seven months in prison. Rather than treating her like the despicable criminal she is she just gets to live life as a normal, apparently respected member of elite society. They may not all be pedophiles or shape shifting lizard people as some conspiracy theorists claim, but the world's elites certainly are people with a fucked up moral compass.
In reality he was scared shitless and his final few moments will have been absolutely horrifying.
Omg, that was intense. What an amazing life.
Ya my first thought too
I appreciate your logic here.
But it's kinda more fun to believe he pissed off Zeus or something.
So you're just talking out of your ass, right?
LOL Ayers never “worked closely with” Obama. They overlapped on a board of directors that met quarterly.
Jesus be like, "dude. Can you not take a hint."
The lefties bots are gonna come for you... 👀 Using the work "leftist" automatically tags you for some downvotes and people arguing nonsense bs with you.

According to Pliny, the Greek playwright Aeschylus spent a lot of time in the countryside to avoid a prophecy that he would be killed by a falling object. Supposedly, he was killed at the age of 67, when an eagle dropped a tortoise on his head. The eagle is believed to have mistaken his bald head for a rock and tried to use it to crack the shell of its prey.
Apparently, you do need a weatherman to know which way the wind blows.
Chesa Boudin, the son of two of the Brinks murderers, was recently voted out of office as district attorney of my hometown.
Some wit told him, “Too bad about losing your job, but I hear that Brinks is hiring drivers.”
Yes, the Washington free beacon definitely thinks the weather underground is super evil and worth publishing about in 2022
Don’t quote from the Washington free beacon, it is a complete rag
Prophecy will Prophecy because you can't avoid fate.
Woman from Toronto survived the Aurora Theater shooting, only to come back home and get killed in Torontos Eaton Center shooting later that year.
And as the plane crashed down, he thought "Well, isn't this nice?"
Probably, but also less so than most, having been in terrible situations twice before this.
Keeping terrorists from being in public is a great use of prison. I couldn’t give less of a fuck what’s happened after they end up in prison they were radicalized and it can happen again if released.
Birds of a feather…
There is no fate but what me make.
They're like less than 8 miles apart.
Isn't it ironic?
Always a sign of intelligence to blame the messenger and not the message. Go read about it in The NY Times if that’s better for you.
They're pretty close (Grew up in New City)
Dad was in auxiliary at the time it happened but wasn't at the scene.
Technically it was Edward Nortons nameless character that said it.
It's okay, the shootout was in Nyack down the street a bit. There is still a memorial at the foot of the entrance to the bridge they were trying to get away on.
"Ackchyually." -that one guy, you know.
From this
http://notanothernewenglandsportsblog.blogspot.com/2011/09/joseph-trombino-brinks-guard-who-had.html
>Joe Trombno was about a year away from retirement on the morning of September 11th. According to co-workers, he stayed in the underground garage with his truck when the planes hit, calling the Brinks dispatcher and inquiring about the whereabouts of the gurads who had gone into the WTC buildings to make a pickup (they had managed to escape but had no means of communication). Trombino told the Brinks office in his last phone call that water was starting to seep in and the walls were starting to crumble around him.
Another link from his obituary:
>Now 68, he was at last planning to retire in a year or so, his wife said. But on Tuesday, as ever, he was up at 2:30 a.m. and out by 3:30 a.m., to make it to work in Brooklyn by 5 a.m. A little after 9 a.m., he was waiting in the armored truck in the basement of the trade center for his three fellow guards to return from the 11th floor. They made it to safety. Joseph called into Brink's from a pay phone, his wife said, to say a policeman had told him to move the truck. The building was shaking and water was cascading down, Joseph said, before the line went dead.
Funny how neither of the non-rags you linked mentions a tie between Obama and Ayers.
Yeah, weird that a liberal outlet wouldn’t publicize that, isn’t it? 🙄. Go do some research on Ayers and Obama and make a decision for yourself.
They're the same guy.

I did back in 2008 and came to the same conclusion you did… by willfully ignoring all the evidence, reporting, and fact checking showing that the relationship was exaggerated while dismissing the lack of real solid evidence on the part of my, at the time, trusted sources.
I’ve since done my research again, properly, and realized my conservative sources where full of shit not just on this but on most things.
>Eaton Center shooting

>other way around but still spooky

>Jessica Ghawi, an American tourist who had left the food court minutes prior to the shooting, was killed seven weeks later in a mass shooting at a movie theatre in Aurora, Colorado.
Ah, pesky Mandela effect
close in distance not close in vibe though
