NPR Covers EU Lawmaker's Plea to Open UFO Books

Are the Europeans just nuts?  Maybe that will be the question posed in my next poll (Reminder: don't forget to vote on the current poll!) because yet another UFO related story from our friends across the Atlantic.  Now a Italian lawmaker who is part of the Euro parliament is urging governments to let the info out!  This needs more press and support from everyone in the parliament, but so far only a baker's dozen have opened their faith pan. 

Ok - so the article itself doesn't really say much else, but the comments section sure is a good read.  Here's the first bunch of bumbling idiots to step forth with their opinions last night...

Comments section:

The most interesting thing about UFOs, if it should turn out they are real, would not be "What are they doing here?" As scary a question as that would be, it would PALE in comparison to "How did they get here?".

It's a long way.

The point to take home is, Knowing something is possible, which a real E.T. Spacecraft would demonstrate, is 90% of doing it too.

I say, open the files. Let's see what is SO secret. It's probably just a fancy new airplane. But let's see.

I really can't understand why some people would think this guy is crazy for this, I think what he's doing is a good thing and can't understand why anyone would think otherwise. The government, which is supposed to be serving the people, should not be hiding any secrets from anyone, especially regarding UFO's. If there's an unidentified flying object somewhere then the public has a right to know about it. Let's remember that a UFO doesn't just have to be a spacecraft from another planet as that's what the term has become associated with the most, it can apply to anything, including military objects. I don't like the idea of the military testing possibly dangerous things in the sky and then the government covers it up ... most UFO's are exactly that. And even if there are odd things that have been seen that even the government can't explain, we have a right to know about that too.

I agree, I think there should be transparency in regard to UFOs.

It does not matter how many appeals are made to the European union or the United Nations assembly. It is the US military/intelligence apparatus (CIA/NSA/ONI/AFI etc etc) that is preventing the disclosure. They will attack anyone who attempts to reveal the secrets about aliens – stopping at nothing including murder and torture. Only when that community is willing, will the secrets be revealed.

Kind of scary that the people we let run the world are this delusional.

See NPR listeners, the Europeans are crazy, too, so you can back off your constant abuse of the good people in Montana and Idaho.

Seems at least one member of the EU parliament watches too much TV...

The fact that there are secret files makes people wonder if there is something to it. If the gov't. says there are no UFO's then why the secret files. Just get it out there, let people decide for themselves what to believe in.
