Explosive News? Tacoma Washington, Obama, and Explosions
Two Explosions Echoed Through the Sound Today
Many people knew that Obama was in Seattle at the time of these booms, and this caused quite a stir in the nearby communities. Phones where off the hook, with callers trying to find out information on the location of these seemingly massive explosions, that shook our very walls.
The cause of these booms was not announced until a few moments had already passed by, and many of the local news agencies claim that it was a plane. However, there has never been such a sonic boom caused by a plane in Tacoma in as many years as I have lived here.
There are those who believe that this incident is directly related to Obamas presence in Seattle. I'm sure I am not alone when I say that the likely hood of this being a simple sonic boom from an F-15 is not particularly great.
During Obamas presence in Seattle the airspace in and around Seattle would have been cordoned off. This area would remain a no fly zone until Obama had officially left the area, making the likely hood of this being a simple sonic boom even less.
What is concerning is that the local news agencies and government officials thought they needed to lie about the actual cause of these earth shaking booms. Being a local resident of the Seattle Tacoma area, I will let you know if anything else comes to light.

Post a CommentAnyone with any common sense knows that a sonic boom from a jet would not cause the damage that was done in a very large area. This was not from any jet. But again we see the coverups our own govt will do. I would more likely believe that it was underground pressure releasing from the snapping of a faultline than a jet. We have jets that fly so low in our area every single day on maneuvers that they almost graze the ground, and we have never lost any windows in our area. And our homes didnt feel like they shook either. Yes they are loud but that is the extent of them.
I remember hearing a sonic boom only once in my life. My family was living in Massachusetts near Boston and apparently the sonic boom occurred in New Hampshire. It is quite loud and scary so even though airspace was cordoned off around Seattle, it's possible that the sonic boom occurred many miles away.
ROFL that would be bad XD
Hope you don't get visited by men in black suits wanting to see your computer.
