Thread Name: BS: Were the 9/11 Hijackers Gay?
Subject: RE: BS: Were the 9/11 Hijackers Gay?
I'm with the consensus on this one; no offense intended, Murray, but this is one of the more ludicrous theories I've heard about the 9/11 attacks. I don't know whether all, some or none of the hijackers were gay, but I don't think it really makes a damn bit of difference. It certainly doesn't seem to me that there is any reason to believe that homosexuality was a motivating factor.

Murray, I believe you when you say that your intentions aren't homophobic. But the theory, taken to its logical conclusion, would tend to suggest that homosexuals are more likely to engage in acts of mass murder/suicide than heterosexuals. Given that, I would not advance a theory like this without a MUCH stronger basis.
