I don't know if this is already on here so i will ask anyway who are the MIB and has anyone had an encounter with them?

Oh, it's on here allright..Over and over and over..

There's a huge, 50+ pages forum about MIB somewhere here.

They do not exist, my personal opinion, for there is no reason for them to exist and they certainly would not call themselves something stupid like Men in Black. Again, common sense! Something which is awfully lacked on this site, no offense to anyone ment.

MIB was made up by a movie, like alot of paranormal things that people seem to think are real.

Untill i know their real names i will call them the mib and i will have to find that thread wherever it is.

Hrrmm. Sorry i couldn't find it.
It was a poll called 'Do you Believe in the MIB?'

I will still check.

/////////////////////
It is assured they did NOT call THEMSELVES 'Men In Black'. This went back to the '50's and the mysterious circumstances surrounding the death of a well-known scientist called Morris K. Jessup -- all tied into the Philadelphia Experiment [1943 a.k.a USS Eldridge - DE173 - later tied to the Greek Navy NATO Pennant number 54].. [ US Navy's version: http://www.history.navy.mil/faqs/faq21-1.htm ]


AND ... Gray Barker's classic book {HERE referred by this link:
http://www.csicop.org/si/9805/barker.html
[not-with-standing the media "hype"!!]]

This also ties in with the mysterious "ALLENDE LETTERS" .
OR: http://www.ufoevidence.org/documents/doc1704.htm


But ... MIB the MOVIE is another "tongue in cheek" attempt to sour the grapes of trying to get straight answers for those who have had a DIRECT EXPERIENCE from these [who ALWAYS TRAVEL IN THREES] - ever elusive .... gents!.

Sorry guy!! The MIB HAVE been seen by MANY "witnesses" to UFO activity -- and some of them (witnesses) have been scared sh..less into going silent! There ARE real cases .. but I also believe it is again 'Uncle Sam' trying to get the edge.

Men in Black is only a generic term used to connotate a certain TRIO who seem to show up (dressed in black with black sunglasses - smelling very foul) - telling UFO witnesses they SAW NOTHING [OR ELSE]! That "OR ELSE" is what made the Doctor Jessup "suicide" appear just that!! Also check into the mysterious death of Secretary Forrestal shortly after Pear Harbor, and the sudden appearance of a group called MJ-12. All after is filled with a RICH HISTORY of Grade School level DISINFORMATION. I can deal with that -- but I am STILL trying to find out the .... WHY!!!

Sometimes being OBJECTIVE can be hard when the EVIDENCE CONTRADICTS COMMON SENSE!! THAT is the VERY ROOT of the problem!!



From the Gryph's Lair

I nener meant anything about the movie but i did ant to hear from someone who has met them. If anyone knows anything they want to tell please post.

when my dad was younger, hes 50 now, but when he was 17 or 18 he lived in a small town called Barrhead Alberta Canada, and during a particular 1 or 2 months there was alot of UFO activity in the area including sightings, one landing encounter, and possibly one or multiple abductions. This was apparantly documented by the US gov'ts project blue book as according to my father who says that strange men started appearing in town wearing buisness suits and claiming to be from Project Blue Book (I dont remember if thats exactly what they said) who interviewed the people who had encounters. but he also said that there were men wearing black suits carrying briefcases in town too!.
This town was no larger than 1000 people, it was a small town so strangers didnt go unnoticed...I dont know if the men in black were telling people to keep it hush hush or not.

If they are working for a secret organisation they ain't gonna telling you anything about their organisation. As what Burny stated that they won't be calling themself "MIB" even if they 'do' exist they won't walk around wearing a black suit and carrying a briefcase. (Only Will Smith does that ) They will probably dress very casually so that would not expose themself to the public.

What are you talking about? How can you deny the MIB exists!? I've managed to get pictures of them!

^Lol .

I have absolutely no belief in an MIB hunting down rogue aliens. The governement has no concerns about aliens and would rather deny their existance to us...they denied Roswell and tried to explain every single UFO sighting on earth...

I believe in UFO-ology though. Scientists that study the UFO phenomenon.

MEN IN BLACK EXIST

Ten MIB cases and an Estimate of the Situation

http://hometown.aol.com/trackingterror/myh...ge/writing.html

I dont know about men in black but I do know the man in black is real ,Its Johnny Cash the oneand only. hehehe, sorry I just had to

They were called MIB by the first person to witness them. They simply said they were men in black, and this is now what they're none as. I think theres something covering up ET's, but they're not the MIB that you all have in mind.

The men in black are a secret movie based organization who regulate and control alien immigrants. Ever see Men in Black, or Men in Black 2? I suggest you watch them, as they seem to be the foremost authority on the subject.

(add maniacal laughter here)

MY ESTIMATE OF THE "MIB" SITUATION

Men in Black exist.

Genuine visits by these enigmatic strangers are among the rarest episodes of the "extraordinary encounter continuum."

But what do these visitations represent?

Nonhumans acting human?

Humans acting alien?

Maybe a little of both.

Maybe something else entirely.

Odd appearance and bizarre (even absurd) behavior does not validate the existence of nonhuman visitors with extraterrestrial or interdimensional origins.

But automobiles vanishing within arm's reach of trained police officers raise some very interesting questions.

DESCRIPTION: Alternately described as... #1) slight of stature, having a dark complexion (olive-skinned) with high cheekbones and pointed features, eyes that are mildly slanted giving them a "foreign" and slightly oriental appearance or... #2) extremely pale (sometimes to the point of grayish or "cadaverous" skin) with blond (or no) hair. The MIB present an appearance often described as "strange" or "odd." Sometimes speak in a dull monotone voice, "like a computer." Their often mechanical behavior has caused them to be described by some as being like androids or robots. Sometimes dressed in expensive suits of black, (hence the term Men in Black) but other modes of dress have been reported. Occasionally wear clothes that are strangely out-dated or, even stranger, clothing that would not be in fashion until years later. Their clothes have also been described as strangely "shiny" and thin -- almost as if they have been cut from a new type of fabric. There are cases of MIB appearing on the other side of a muddy field after a heavy rain, but having no mud whatsoever on their brightly shined shoes and in the bitter cold, out of nowhere, wearing only a thin (or no) coat. These characters all look alike. Consistency is the name of the game - even to the "just purchased" clothing, unwalked on shoes, unopened cigarette packs and spanking new wallets. A lot of descriptions of some of these "folks" are pretty bizarre. A family in Wildwood, New Jersey, was visited by a huge man whose pants legs hiked up when he sat down, revealing a green wire grafted onto his skin and running up his leg. There is another feature that is common to virtually all MIB reports. That is the possession, by the Men In Black, of information that they should not have.

PRIMARY OBJECTIVES: To convince witness(es) that what they saw had a perfectly rational explanation. If that fails, the Men in Black openly advise witness(es) to keep quiet about their UFO or paranormal experience. This may include direct threats involving destruction of personal property, injury or loss of life. Threats are directed to family of witness(es). If the witness(es) have managed to collect any sort of evidence to prove the reality of the UFO or paranormal experience, the MIB will demand it in forceful terms. "Unusual" burglaries have occurred where UFO evidence is taken instead of money and valuables. Civilian researchers reportedly have been advised to terminate specific investigations.

MODE OF TRAVEL: Preferred transportation traditionally large and expensive black cars - Lincolns and Cadillacs in these United States, Jaguars in the United Kingdom. However, other vehicle makes have been reported. Their cars often operate with the headlights off, but ghostly purple or greenish glows illuminate the interior. Unusual insignia have been seen emblazoned on the doors. Witness(es) in several cases have managed to get the license numbers of these mysterious vehicles, but police checks have CONFIRMED THAT NO SUCH LICENSE PLATE REGISTRATION NUMBERS HAVE EVER BEEN ISSUED! Think about this. There are several million vehicle registrations in these United States alone. It is more than just curious to note that in each of these cases, the Men In Black have NEVER come up with a number that was actually in use at the time.

IMPORTANT: Men in Black have reportedly posed as salesmen, census takers, and telephone repairmen. On occasion, these mystery characters have been known to impersonate Air Force or other military or government personnel. If approached by individuals of a suspicious nature claiming these connections, study their identification carefully and immediately call the respective base or district office to confirm their identity.

The men in black were already here before the movie but they don't only deal with aliens but they apeared in point pleasant when the mothman apeared. Just google search the mothman.

The "essense" of MIB is nothing more than what many aspects in our government do already. We have covert CIA teams, military special operation forces, etc...
Though the likelyhood of MIB's running around dealing with earthbound aliens is probably ridiculous, there is no question that special teams exist to deal with, say, the inadvertent crash or public exposure of a highly classified experimental aircraft, drone or other super-advanced device.

All encounters of MIB portray one fact:

The men in black purposley act and dress eccentricley in order to dicredit somone who ever told of an encounter with them.

There are perhaps a dozen other mind games they perform to manipulate us; I look foward to the day we come across them.

I am totally with you, Burnside. Men In Black is merely a storyline for a movie, in fact, for two movies. People often have a difficult time seperating fictional movies from reality.

We know that The U.S. Goverment has funded various Investigative Detachments, mostly through the U.S. Air Force, to look into reports of UFO Sightings, (Project Blue Book is an example, and it's documented.)

However, those Airmen certainly didn't run around in black suits, black cars and black glasses. I believe that in certain cases, the U.S. Government, as well as other Governments still Investigate these reports. (It's most likely though, that they show up when people have seen Classified Military Aircraft rather than E.T. Spaceships.)

As for Secret Organizations that operate above The World's Governments and The Laws, I just don't see that in this world today. If there were really such organizations, it seems to me that the world would be a much better place than it is, one without terrorism and gihads, etc., well, that is, unless THEY are the ones that are actually causing these things...

There have been reports of "MIB"s since the fifties, but of course the government has never verified any of these reports. I saw some yesterday they were looking for someone named Mr. Anderson.

There have been incidents with MIBs that the government, itself, wanted to investigate.

....And many incidents where the government stated that they didn't have any craft_ flying_ at the time.

I agree with your thinking.

You appear ignorant.

MIB (or Men in black) were around long before the movie. Although Men in black may not be the name by which they call themselves, it is the only known slang term for them. They are called Men in black simply because their men in black. They don't leave a card when they encounter somone, so what are you supposed to call them?

We don't know what the MIBs are...or where they are from. They have been seen all over the globe by many different cultures.

MIB's are merely government officials...do a lot of stuff, do nothing, they just do government stuff....

Sometimes I think, they are really holding aliens in their facilities .

Some MIB's are government, some are not.

As I said, the government in these situations have stated that they don't know who these guys are. And they are quite curious. They would like you to report MIB visits. Some of these visits have the government scratching their heads.

Here is my opinion on the MIB

If they do exist, then why could they not be part of the government? The government has lied to us before (WMD anyone?) so why can't they do it again? If they know aliens exist, they won't want lots of people knowing it, because it is likely it would cause panic. When someone see's a UFO, they are probably going to be disbelieving, and so if some government agency comes knocking on their door saying that it was a meteorite or something, the person is gonna believe it, unless they read this site of course . I believe they DO exist, but they may not be MIB in such, they could be MIG (men in green/gray) or MIR (men in red), or something completely different.

The goverment didn't lie about WMD, it merly confiscated them for personal use. If they showed the people, they would have to destroy them.

My guess is the US will secretly ship cheaperer WMD's to iraq, and then 'find' them.

every agency has its spooks it makes sence too, not to scare the public but to keep the govt secrets, like a bout the joint project nasa and the airforce have going on (arura) i think is called.
