“Who do you think is responsible for the Sept. 11, 2001 terrorist attacks on the United States?”

Amanda Lowe 19, Huntington Beach. Undecided “I don’t think our government wanted it to happen. In my opinion, it was terrorism. I feel the government didn’t handle it very well, which lead to the conspiracy theories.”

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Jacob Zerba 20, Huntington Beach. Art major “I completely feel that it was our government and there’s a lot of facts that show it was planned by someone in our government. After the event, the Bush Administration got in big trouble for burning federal documents and they got away with it."

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Vanessa Kent 18, Huntington Beach. Computer science major “I think it was terrorists. We don’t know what’s right or wrong, and we need to endure the worst case scenario."

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Vincent Garcia 18, Long Beach. Undecided “It was definitely terrorism. I think it’s easy to take speculations and to look for a conspiracy. I think conspiracies have the same effect as tall tales and everything snowballs.”

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Rosie Lugo 19, Huntington Beach. Undecided “I think it’s a huge conspiracy. I feel like it was too much of a surprise to let it pass. I think there’s a lot more to it and a lot of facts were hidden. There were too many shady things around the event and George Bush changed his story at least five times.”
