The saga of the apparent Bigfoot discovery was over before it even started.  The media swooped in on the statement, chewed it up and spit it out, determining it’s verdict before the facts were even presented.  The only thing that was proven throughout this whole frenzied week was that the world is not even remotely ready for any type of paranormal disclosures.   The secret society who keeps the UFO and alien information from the public might as well seal the files for another hundred years based on the behavior this week.

From a jounalist dressed in a monkey suit at the press conference to death threats uttered to the would be discoverers of Bigfoot, the world may as well have donned pitch forks and lit torches.  We have proven ourselves unworthy of accepting new information on any anomalous adventures.  It amazes me in this day and age how quickly and easily the majority of people will simply jump on the most popular bandwagon.

I personally thought the press conference to be rather interesting and inconclusive as of yet.  Call me naive, but I’m still interested in how this yet might unfold.  I remain respectfully on the fence until further evidence is brought forward.  I found it interesting my viewpoint was remarkably rare.  That could mean one of two things, I’m content to sit as an impartial judge to a situation or I’m extremely foolish and naive for trusting that people might actually be dignified enough to be honest with the public.  Either way, I’m rather proud of being, yet again, the outsider.

If is true that these young gentlemen have indeed stumbled upon a great discovery that would forever change the history of the animal kingdom as we know it, I personally wouldn’t even share it after how the world behaved.  I would find a good and quiet taxidermist, preserve Bigfoot’s body and dignity, and forever hide it.  

It’s funny really, what else did I expect, fair trials don’t even exist in our judicial system as we judge them guilty before they even have a chance to plead their case.  It’s all based on the surmised past history of individuals and the media’s attention grabbing intervention.  At the end of the day, no one cares about the individuals involved, that their whole world has been turned upside down or that they are forever marred now as liars.

I don’t think we’ll ever really know the truth now and somehow, I don’t think the world cares.
