re: Cool old pictures - more pics throughout thread

3 Men are executed by Guillotine in France in 1909. Even with a black and white picture, you can see some of the blood on the blade.


Veterans from the Civil War, Spanish American War, and WWI attend a ceremony with thousands of civilians to dedicate this memorial statue on the lawn of the Lucas County Courthouse in Ohio, US in 1927.


Black soldiers known as Buffalo Soldiers guard captured Spanish prisoners during the Spanish American War in Cuba in 1898.

people are really naive enough to believe what the government tells them. It's baffling.

Look my man, I don't particularly like or trust the government most of the time, but 9/11 wasn't a conspiracy and neither was the Challenger disaster...

19 year old Russian sniper Roza Shanina had 54 confirmed kills during WWII.

Never made any such claim. It was typical management being deaf. And perhaps that's all 9/11 was, though I still find the science lacking and unconvincing.

No way anyone lived through that explosion. Not being mean, but did you hear that on Facebook or something?

After the collapse of its fuel tank, the Challenger itself remained momentarily intact, and actually continued moving upwards. Without its fuel tank and boosters beneath it, however, powerful aerodynamic forces soon pulled the orbiter apart. The pieces—including the crew cabin—reached an altitude of some 65,000 feet before falling out of the sky into the Atlantic Ocean below. It’s likely that the Challenger’s crew survived the initial breakup of the shuttle but lost consciousness due to loss of cabin pressure and probably died due to oxygen deficiency pretty quickly. But the cabin hit the water’s surface (at more than 200 mph) a full 2 minutes and 45 seconds after the shuttle broke apart, and it’s unknown whether any of the crew could have regained consciousness in the final few seconds of the fall.

It’s from the History channel, and if you’ve read up on this it’s very common knowledge that as the previous poster stated, NASA wasn’t really keen on publishing. Do yourself a favor and read the article HERE

ETA: yep, that's where he got that camera blurring device the he always has with him

frick all these modern photos from the 30's and 40's. Let's look at a really old one. Here is John Quincy Adams, 6th president of the United States. Photo was taken in 1843 and is the oldest (surviving) photograph of a US president.



Adams, of course, was the son of John Adams who was the 2nd president of the U.S. and one of America's founders. John Quincy Adams, like his dad, also became president (6th president) and served from 1825-1829. The Adams' were considered the first American political dynasty.

John Quincy died in 1848 at age 78, which was 5 years after this photo was taken. This made him a pretty old man for the time.

From what I remember reading... the Challenger crew was most likely alive but unconscious until the crew cabin hit the water.

The Dorothy Counts photo...guess what..Those were Democrats taunting her..
