"Men In Black"      
    (A Hoax?)

By

If you have been within the 'UFO Community,' or if you have simply dabbled into UFOs by means of books, related paranormal TV-shows and even certain radio talk/shows: You have heard of these, "Men in Black."

For those of you who haven't heard of these 'men,' I will try to relate who they are claimed as being, from those who have had (or so they say) direct contact with these guys, who set about intimidating people who have either witnessed UFOs, or people who have videotaped, and or photographed, . . UFOs.

Forget about the movie, "Men in Black," as these 'men' have apparently been around for a lot longer than this recently released movie (1997).

I have heard about these Men in Black (MIB) for many years, not out of desire, but from watching TV programs that air stories regarding UFOs, in some of the recent UFO-related books that I have read, as well as testimonies from the people who make claims of the visitations from these guys who seem to wear 'black,' no matter the weather . . . ('Pause for thought).

I state, "no matter the weather," because as you may know: the color black attracts the sun's heat waves as opposed to the color white, which refracts these 'heat-waves.'

If you have worn a black shirt on a hot summer's day, then you know where I am going with this. You can feel your skin burning from the heat . . . But if you wear a white shirt--the opposite occurs: your skin remains, cooler. 'Plain, and simple.

That's the science behind 'heat-waves' and these two colors--without getting too technical with technical jargon.

Having addressed this objective reality--now let's consider just how true these reports really are.

Of course, if someone (hopefully, an honest and creditable person) relates to having being visited by or, 'spied' upon by these Men in Black, we should take their word on this until and unless they are proven incorrect.

There have been stories that explain these men as being some sort of "secret agents" of either the U.S. government or, of some world-secret-service-agents, as they have been reported by people from all over the world.

On the 'Art Bell' radio talk show the 3rd week of July, 1997, there was a guest on this show who claimed to be the leading authority on these guys, having written a book on the subject. This man stated that the Men in Black have been around for thousands of years!

Could you imagine a sheep-herder two thousand years ago being tracked-down by Men in Black out in the deserts of the middle east, because this sheep-herder had seen a, "fiery chariot?" It's laughable to consider this assertion. <grin>.

It has been further asserted that these modern-day Men in Black are not humans!

They have been described as having pale-yellow skin, of an Oriental type race. They never seem to be black men, wearing Black . . . 'Interesting fact.

Having spent well over two years now proving that my sightings and ultimate videotaping of the amazing UFOs from June 1st. and the 11th., of 1995 over Cleburne, Texas (Please see my other articles within this Website), which included sending copies of my "Official UFO Report" to the White House and other governmental agencies: I have never been visited by Men in Black, nor have I been 'spied' upon by these kind of guys. Why? Considering that these UFO videotapes are said to be the Best Documented videos in the World? Again I say: why haven't they paid me a visit?

I'd have to offer them some ice-water if they came to Texas during the long, hot months of the summer and spring, because I just couldn't stand to see anyone suffer from the heat--wearing 'Black' suits and beading-up in perspiration as a result of their attire.

One would think that if these guys were going to harass anyone about UFO videos and or sightings: they would have been seen by me.

I can not discount the reports from the people who have made these aforementioned claims to seeing, being spied upon, and even, 'harassed' by the Men in Black, because I would not want my word on a matter challenged by anyone stating that I did not see what I had said that I had seen--especially once I had a videotape and objective, proven facts surrounding my sightings, however, just as I had to do: There must be proof to back-up your story . . .

It would seem, objectively, that the people who write books and further this topic on radio talk shows and the like concerning these Men in Black never seem to offer any proof of these "intimidators" (my term) and thereby making their assumptions of the terror associated with these guys to be 'money-motivated' by spreading a false-fear pertaining to these 'covert' activities of the MIB.

Once again: I am not discounting the reports from the private people who make claims to having seen and being followed, harassed and spied upon by the Men in Black. I am being critical of those who would 'cash-in' on this topic, not only by making money via this mystery, but by spreading and perpetuating this fear to those who would then become afraid to make actual reports of UFOs, based upon this fear-spreading by the mentioned deplorable people, who themselves, more than likely have never even seen these Men in Black--who are now said to be something other than human . . .

BTW (By The Way): I have two black suits--I do not work for any 'secret agency'--and I am most assuredly, human. I also would encourage anyone to file a report if they have seen or photographed a UFO, and don't worry about these "Men in Black." They sound a lot like a fire-side 'ghost-story' to me . . . 

Peace in numbers--Jason
