I always like to hear your input, but you do have a tendency to present your opinions as fact. There are plenty of reasons to be confused by the moving timeline and to discount others here is condescending. I know you have strong opinions and I even know what they are, but bottom line, you do not actually know if your assumptions are correct. As for the little stab at those of us who are finding this frustrating and are considering the possibility that are contributions will not help; we are not giving up on the girls. The girls are dead and there is no changing that. They do deserve justice and others deserve protection, but is it really wrong that some of us think that it may not come via this site? We want to participate and hopefully help, but we also need to be able to feel free to express our frustrations every now and then without someone accusing us of giving up on the girls.
I do apologise, and I mean that. I don't realise how I sound sometimes.
Perhaps you need to view my comments in context.
I have been on this case, every single day, since July 13, along with a handful of other dedicated sleuthers.
There have been many incidences of - Witness bashing, LE bashing, Witness sleuthing, General frustration, Inaccuracies stated as fact. This is normal and part of the process.
I have largely sat by and said nothing, while feeling the frustration you speak of, almost daily, for a lot of reasons. I cannot post my opinions freely on this one as it would have me on time out.
The following are all posts I made wayyyy back in July, sbm for brevity and relevance.

I'm not very good with time, I'm always late or early, so I decided a while ago that the FBI have probably thought of everything in that regard, they're kinda smart like that.
That was me politely defending the FBI's 8 minute timeline, which at that stage was being doubted and sleuthed.
8 minutes for the girls to get from the cctv, to their bikes being seen at the lake.
It is absolutely doable.
Pahl is the manager of Cornbelt Auctions, 3520 Lafayette Road, where a 24-hour camera captured the footage from its position behind the building. The time and date stamp 12:11 p.m. July 13 fits the police timeline of the case.
If the girls were intercepted by car shortly after the cctv picked them up, there's plenty of time to get the bikes dumped by 12.20.
That was me on the timing and the cctv, the black part is msm. The sightings fit the Police Timeline...they always have done.

Sorry I'm standing up for LE here. Please do some msm reading before you throw out statements like that. The searches are alive and well and still ongoing.

What if the girls were accosted by someone they knew, in a car, between the store and the lake.
What if the person was someone they knew and trusted, who had actually planned this abduction, for whatever motive...What if the person told the girls there had been a bad accident, gramma was in hospital, they had to come quick, chuck your bikes in the truck/boot/leave them here with fred and joe they will take them home for you...Take them back to the offenders house, closeby, why an accomplice dumped the bikes at a pre-arranged location that was considered to be perfect to stage an abduction.
I just cannot get past the timeline. TG is a credible witness, he is adamant he saw the bikes at 12.20, it has been repeated several times by msm so I'm taking it. It had to be this way, simply by the speed it took place. Assuming of course TG was not mistaken. It also means more than one abductor.
The above was me formulating my theory out loud, and it has been set in stone ever since.
Now I've just read that TG is "mistaken" and "LE have no idea", within the last day.
Even though SS has so generously given of his time, and got verified, still he is doubted. Even though the 8 minutes from Cornbelt Auctions to the Lake is in MSM as the Police timeline, and completely achievable within an average travel speed by kids on bikes, as has also been hashed over here.
Yeah, I know frustration. Six months of it. Sorry if I let it show...but as you said, we should all feel free to express them, every now and then.
:seeya:
BTW - reading my posts, I can't honestly see where I "present opinions as fact" anywhere, so perhaps you could point an example out to me so I can see where I do it. :dunno:
