Broken: Baltimore's Francis Scott Key Bridge Collapsed

Well that answers everything.

Being from Seattle I don't really think of the other ports in this country. I had no idea Maryland had a port that large. I look at this picture and think "What are we shpping?" I am so ignorant about it-is it mostly agriculture? Anyone?

Those are 40 foot shipping containers stacked on the vessel and they ship a huge variety of things from machinery to furniture to cars to non perishable food

It's not my fault that you refuse to see the evidence that has been presented.

IT is your fault that you're swallowing total bullshit.

Like this?

Did I say it was real? Rhetorical question, no I didn't.

Might as well have.

Thanks for that. Makes sense. I am still surprised.

Next maybe dumb question-they are talking about rebuilding the bridge and that it could take up to 2 years. Is it possible to install a ferry system in that area in the meantime? I mean obvioiusly those aren't fail safe either! But it seems it would be quicker to get that up and running than a bridge.

It looks like they used to have a ferry prior to 1952 and got rid of it with the Chesapeake bridge and tunnel system. Bring it back!

Most stolen vehicles going to Nigeria and the United Arab Emirates.

Convienient! It has recently been discussed! (I don't follow conspiracy theories, so I am joking when I say "convienient") Also, this looks more like a tourism idea than transportation/commuting.

So zero evidence that I said it was real.

If you ignore all the posts you made after that defending the con artists, sure. If you didn’t think that it was real, or at least highly likely to be real, you wouldn’t have defended such an obvious hoax.

Zero evidence.

Big container ships like this are typically single screw. Keep the mechanical complexity down to hold costs down. Understand, a container ship is essentially a big hollow tub with vertical rails to secure the boxes. They’d actually quite simple ships. This particular one seems to have had another such mischief in Antwerp in 2016.

Yes, when it comes to the government covering up alien bodies or Bob Lazar knowing about alien technology, that’s exactly what we have. You, however, continue to argue to the contrary.

Single screw or single crew?

Bullshit, I posted Bob Lazar's W2 where he worked for the Department of Naval Intelligence.

Good lord, if that's true, that's an awfully massive ship for a single screw.

If you ever get to the other side of the country, you'd probably be gobsmacked at the Port of Memphis. The amount of "intermodal" traffic (containers which can be unloaded from boats and put on trains and vice-versa) is huuuuuge, but doesn't even make the top 10 in terms of such traffic in the U.S. Just for some perspective the ports of LA and Long beach carry five times the traffic of Seattle and Spokane.

After reading more about the journey the ship made it dawned on me that not everything was loaded here. I would love to visit other ports, they are pretty fascinating to me.

USA Today reported that 1) the ship was being piloted by a Maryland pilot at the time 2) the main power blew 3) they switched to the onboard generator, and that shut off too, 4) the ship dropped anchor and tried to use that to course correct but it was too late.

It had been inspected and found no deficiencies at it's last harbor, in Virginia.

They radioed to the Portsmaster when the power went out and warned that they might be in a collision.

The Feds are taking a look at this one, led by the department of Cybersecurity and Infrastructure. The second one is the one in question, but the first name in that department has the internet conspiracy theorists all abuzz. Personally I like the fact that both groups are in the same department now. It is possible it was a cyberattack, but if so there's been no reports of it to this point.

And why did you post that?

A cyber attack carried out on a bridge that has a lot of volume crossing it, except not at a time of day when lots of volume crosses it, destroying a bridge in the 19th largest port in the USA that's only responsible for 4% of eastern seaboard volume which will end up mildly disrupting the flow of goods (specifically motor vehicles) and place a slight burden on other ports from redirected traffic

It feels like the conspiracy theorists aren't even trying all that hard any more

Seriously, reading the comments online is embarrassing.

It's evidence that Bob Lazar worked for the Department of Naval Intelligence.

I wasn’t aware that was in dispute.

It's in dispute that the Department of Naval Intelligence even exists.
