Speaking of terror attacks, what was the official explanation for how it was that cargo ship managed to hit the bridge in Baltimore?

Boat is gone. Crew that were on the boat are gone. Bridge is gone. Out of sight, out of mind.

I was wondering about that too. Any members living near there heard anything?

Pretty sure the boat hitting the bridge was a mechanical failure and incompetence.

Ya they should have had wolf dog driving it the crash never would have happened. Was not an American crew I think I heard. Just like all the foreigners driving semi's that come into work that cant speak English well enough to communicate I have to question the sanity of letting them operate on our roads sky's and water. Then again I was just thinking about all the ignorant people these days and how they could not have survived 100 years ago. Then it hit me even the dumbest ones are right beside me on the road each day. So people I would not trust to own a cat I'm trusting with my and my families life's every single time we get in a vehicle on the roads.

Pretty sure that is what they hope people would believe.

After boat left the dock with help from tugs, it was running down the narrow channel fairway under it's own steam and control. Those channels are narrow. Get out of one the least little bit and you will run aground. So just before it hit the bridge, it moved from right side of channel to left side......not out of channel, but to edge of it.......then with some angle to work with, aimed directly at bridge pillar, crossed back over center of the channel to hit it more or less, head on. Had it not crossed over, it would have run aground before it got there.

To believe the accident theory, you would have to accept a whole litany of coincidences.......chief among them the miraculous coincidence that all that happened at precisely the right moment to hit the bridge. Not before, not after, not left, but right. Pure coincidence? I think not.

That ship had a harbor pilot I believe and it lost power , as it approached the bridge, no way to control it after that... they tried to drop the anchor in an emergency manuever to slow or stop it but no anchor could have could have stopped it. That ship had previous issues with power failure....sometimes an accident is just an accident....

They said it lost all power , and it came back on at the right time for the black smoke to come out of the smoke stacks, and a hard right straight into the pillar!
Hard to believe it was an accident !
It is strange how fast it was covered up too.

Quit trying to shoot down a perfectly good conspiracy theory.

The Vegas shooting is still the one I can't wrap my head around. I think about that often and it makes 0 sense.

Oh my aching…… of course the boat is gone— no reason to keep it here.
the crew is gone —no reason to keep them here.
the bridge is gone— no reason to keep a pile of mangled steel around blocking a shipping lane
There was a pilot on board— as required. Anybody has questions they know where he is.
Mechanical failure nothing more nothing less.

Boats have have had issues throughout history and have it things including docks, bridges, and other boats.

What's really strange is that the conspiracy theory's often are proven correct!

So all the being said, what was the story given by the pilot and crew? And when they checked that story out, what did they find?

To my knowledge it was a power failure….. admittedly this information was from mainstream media. There would only be a handful of the crew to interview including those in the pilot house and those in the engine room. Most of the crew would have no idea other than when power went out. You can see on the video footage of the power going out…..


Not an everyday occurrence here but boats lose power here on the Great Lakes as they go about the business of moving cargo. Heck, boats have it bridges here because they didn’t open in time. One boat The Windoc was destroyed because the bridge closed too soon. Closed a roadway and a major waterway for a little bit….. the bridge operator was under the influence and nobody suspected anything else

I believe nothing that comes out of main stream media or any government agency. Recent history has proven they will both lie to achieve their goals, one would have to be delusional to believe otherwise.

Normally I would agree with you Rat….. and I admitted it too lol
But I’ve seen the footage and enough incidents around here to not suspect otherwise.

I believe the pilot was a local. They run local pilots to these ship to bring them in and take them out. A foreigner wasn’t at the helm.

It isn't hard to convince me a bunch of Patels smashed a boat into a bridge through lack of maintenance and incompetence. The only thing that surprises me is that it doesn't happen more often.

I didn't realize pilots steer the boat. I was of the opinion they are on the bridge to gave advice and orders. But either way, what was / is the pilot's version of events? I've never heard.

All the mechanical / incompetent stuff is possible, and even plausible, except for the coincidence factor. Not somewhere before or after passing the bridge. Not to the left......but to the right to steer dead at it. The coincidence factor alone rules out almost any other explanation other than it was intentional. And nobody has offered anything to refute that idea.

If you’ve spent any time around boats??

You understand that boats lose power,,,,,,and then they are at the mercy of the current

It was an accident.

But,,,,,

Listening/reading anything Sarah Adams has been saying recently,,,

North American/europe is in for a 9/11,oct 7,Mumbai type attack at any moment

Hundreds,maybe thousands of trained terrorists coordinating individual/small group attacks

Alarm bells ringing everywhere!!!

Was traveling over Christmas and there was a noticeable increase in airport security in Canada,US,Mexico and Belize

Everyone was commenting on it
