The government doesn’t want to hear your stories, they only want you to hear their stories

I suspect it would get overloaded with all kinds of bogus reports.

As a kid, in the early 60's IIRC, I reported a fake one to project blue book's phone number.
it was so obviously fake, since during it I said ,in a kids voice, I'm sure... "oh no they're here".....and dropped the phone followed by a hang-up

So, yeah. probably get inundated with fake reports

Yep. Back years ago in Ca they passed a niche regulation on my business. “All contacts and questions shall go through this office at this number”. For a couple months it always rang busy. I had to go through a round about way to find out no one even works in that office and they leave the phone off the hook.

So I just ignored the regulation for years and never heard another thing about it.

It’s hard not to wonder what their new angle is (if any), after ostensibly ignoring the whole issue for decades. This despite the fact that there have been very credible sightings of ‘things’ for a long time, including inexplicable ‘things’ showing up on radar going back at least to the 1950s.

That’s like 75% of posts...

We can do better. I'll just try harder.

Why a Hotline? These sightings are routine.

It may be a blessing in disguise—since .gov still is determined to “cancel” pilots who dare to report what they see.

The Cabal is alive and well...

Could probably name at least TWO freepers that would be cutting and pasting accounts into the reporting system, if it were available.

The problem with humanity is that most don’t care anymore about anything.

UFO’s do exists. But what we don’t know for sure yet is about their true origin.
Are they extraterrestrial (alien)? Is it ultra advanced earth technology? If so...
Is it China? USA? A private non-national venture?

From whatever it comes from, this stuff is based on technology that defies our most creative dreams.

But the thing is...
If God himself would manifest himself speaking to all humanity at once with a thunderous voice dropping from she sky all over the planet... people would just say: “yeah sure... nice AI Hollywood cinema effect...”.
If we would see a new Jesus waling on water... everyone would just laugh.

The value of TRUTH is diminishing every day. Sad.

Excellent comment!

But as to this part of it...

"The value of TRUTH is diminishing every day"...
I would say "keep your chin up." Truth (i.e., reality) can be ignored, forgotten, tamped down, and insulted...but it ain't going anywhere.;-)

Most of us on these threads can name MANY freepers who would, if they could, be filing false reports to gum up the works and damage the search for the truth.
