Where's The Beef!?

Paranormal Novice
As an avid and involved member of the UFO subculture since the tender age of 14 (I am 45), I look back and, against everything I want to say, I instead ask: Where is THE photo?

Where is THE one photo? Why are all the photos of UFO's always and forever at a significant distance? Do you mean to tell me 6 billion people, many of whom are armed, indeed sufocating with cell phones, disposable cameras, video cameras, et. al., there has not emerged a single, clear, crisp, undeniable photo of what could only be an extraterestrial craft?

Clearly, after all this time, after all those shutters have snapped all those photos, someone SOMEWHERE would/could/should be able to produce just ONE photo that can set the world on fire.

Pardon me. I'm not asking for a tour of an extraterestrial vessel; I'm not requesting alien DNA, I'm not asking for a "gizmo" to take home. I just want one photo, ONE DB-proof, indisputable picture that clearly and shamelessly shows a UFO that no one could/can deny.

Is that asking too much? Just one quick pix of a UFO? Really?

Yeah, I get the fascinating tales of loners working for the government, only to come clean later about their crazy antics. I get the books filled with INTERPRETATIONS. But when push comes to shove, I end up forever against a sweater-wearin' guy who wants to quote a government document from 1967, and ends up running home, crying for his mommy.

Is reality not interesting enough for him?

Is this not the age of technology? Didn't everyone in the UFO community say back in the early 90's that the proliferation of video cameras would result in undeniable proof? Am I the only one who remembers the arrogent and defient cries of believers who exclaimed that we would be simply "awash" in quality UFO photos? I don't need to be "awash". I'm not selfish. I just humbly request one, ONE, clear photo.

And when that didn't happen, didn't those who came later state that advancements in cell phone technology would result in a plethora of genuine, clear, crisp photos?

Please, PLEASE tell me I'm mistaken. Please try to argue that even the celebrities in our field weren't guilty of exclaiming that a pixilated smoking gun was not only forthcoming, but imminent.

Folks, understand the request. I'm not asking for verification or authenticity of the original handwritten signiture of so-and-so on the Majestic Documents; I'm not requesting further study of the fibers of the the tree trunk from the the Olowaska landing, no. I'm simply asking for one, just one, photo.

But alas, not one photo can be found.

Can this be a massive, global government cover-up? Hmmm. The people who brought you the U.S. Postal Service, the people who swore that overnight delivery simply could not be guarenteed, the people who fashioned the crazy-efficient and fast-moving DMV, those people?

Just want to be sure.

As I enter middle age, I am frustrated. You see, I DO believe. I really do. And people like DB ( and his experiences), frustrate me.

Why? Because, quite frankly, by now, Bebo from Okmankur should have punched up a killer photo.

And it hasn't happend.

Still and all, we remain the grainy, hard-to-see, could-be-anything folks.

Where's the BEEF?

Keep looking. There's clear and close enough photos out there. If it would be anywhere more closer than we currently have, you'd need the "aliens" approval, which there's no reason to assume we should have.

Same with a living Bigfoot, if they exist I imagine.

Some say the US Gov. has some beef, but are hiding it. If true, that answers your question in the title.
 
There's PLENTY of beef.

McMinnvile UFO case - Best Evidence - The Paracast Community Forums

Skylab III UFO case - Best Evidence - The Paracast Community Forums

And the Trindade, Brazil case.

There are three, off the top of my head. There are more - like the Canaima, Venezuela image that has been previously covered in these forums.

And why do you expect more images? Because you WANT them? Isn't that lovely, people walking around with cameras, looking to get crisp, clear pictures of UFOs so that you can put your doubts to rest. I'll make sure to always carry around all of my cameras, so that I can get that one crisp, clear picture that tells us NOTHING about these things, so that you can see you've seen a good picture. You seem to lack the motivation to do the most basic research, it's not hard to find a decent image if you take the whole 10 minutes needed to do so, but hey, you're my generation, you want it predigested, you want someone else to do the work for you, you want someone else to tell you what's real and what's not. You want to BELIEVE, you said it, belief is so much easier than actually doing any kind of work towards understanding something. Oy.

I sometimes feel like doing this show, and supporting these forums, is just a fucking lost cause. Thanks for the brutal reminder, Magicwhatever.
