UFOs rightly make the debate stage

Echoing her former colleague Tucker Carlson's interest in the subject, Fox News's Martha MacCallum rightly raised unidentified flying objects, or UFOs, at the first GOP presidential primary debate in Milwaukee on Wednesday.

    Within the next five to 15 years, I suspect we’ll find an informed public consensus broadly agrees on at least three things about UFOs (or what the government refers to as “unidentified aerial phenomena,” or UAPs). First, that the vast majority of UFOs are either weather phenomena, or flares, or classified spy aircraft, or balloons, or misidentified aircraft, or the products of overactive imagination. Second, that some UFOs are the products of unusually advanced balloon and drone-based capabilities operated by China. Third, that a small but significant and historically vested number of UFOs are intelligently controlled machines almost certainly operated by one or more nonhuman intelligences. I stand by that comment.

    I think this is an important quote that I can get behind.

    Granted, when Chris Christie received the question, he met it with a chuckle. I was disappointed in that response, believing the topic should be treated with the seriousness it deserves.

    However, I do think it’s pretty amazing that it’s being brought up in debate. This indicates a shift in public perception regarding the topic.
