should we be worried?

It's no surprise that the internet has enabled conspiracy thinking to thrive.

It's like leaving cheese in a rat infested building.

I just love it when people go on line to demonstrate their ignorance to the world.

The whole idea of conspiracy theories and those that believe in them is quite well studied. Everything believed by these people has been addressed in detail and shown to be irrational. Moreover, the entire scientific community along with the entire psychological community has long ago reached a consensus that conspiratorial thinking is nothing more than a psychological disorder no different from so many others.

One would not debate whether or not people are watching a paranoid schizophrenic through their TV or living within the walls of their home. One would not debate a person who believes they are a ghost when clearly they are alive. Debating whether or not these conspiracies are real is no different.

Now there are real conspiracies in life, but real ones seldom go very far before being discovered. They certainly do not persist for decades.

Ok Mr. smarty pants, no conspiracies that last for Decades eh? In fact no conspiracies ever happen eh? How about the Gulf of Tonkin incident, explain that one. FORTY ONE YEARS of Conspiracy there my friend. Your view of how the world really works has just been completely turned upside down hasn't it? So easy to prove this shit exists than doesn't. Provide proof that no conspiracies exist, you can't.


And CJ, the JFK assassination conspiracy has been around for a long time hasn't it? Did they have the internet in 1964?

You haven't read Rockefeller's Memoirs have you CJ? He wasn't using Sarcasm at all. Know what his Harvard senior thesis was about? He graduated Cum Laude and his thesis was on Fabian Socialism.

I never said YOU were afraid of Sarah. I made the statement that the democrats (as a collective) were scared of her IMO. If that's not the case then why is she being ripped apart by liberals still? Her political career is over. Even if she runs she will probably be soundly defeated. And I didn't mean scared in the literal sense. I meant scared of her becoming pres. I'm not a democrat and I have to admit I'm a little scared of that thought. :shock:

Love it fdd! just how i feel too, about the guns.

I dont think its a fear of Sarah specificaly, i think its the thought of "an empty vessel" running the government. an empty vessel to fill with whatever idealogies they want to. Its the fact of having someone even less intelligent that G.W. running the gov. thats scares people. its not literally fear of Sarah.

i'm not gonna argue about conspiracy theories, but I have the original one, the origin of the government misleading it's own people to push their agenda.

The Maine explosion off the coast of Cuba. Started the Spanish American War.

the USA not only blamed spain, but it was the first instance this country started a war unprovoked, without proof of any aggression, just started a war, because at the time, it was the correct strategic decision. The spanish government expressly denied any involvement, yet the war was started, and history went on it's course. Officially the US did not mention that as the cause of the war. just like officially the war in Iraq was to remove a dictator who supposedly murdered thousands of people. it had nothing, officially, to do with WMD's.

conspiracies have been around forever, and there is NO proof, or concesion in the scientific community that enjoying conspiracies makes you mentally impaired. RickWhite, you're wrong. what the scientific community has found, is that when compared to the population, the incidence of mental disorders such a paranoid delusions, schizophrenia, etc. is higher among the conspiracy crowd, but the statistical correlation is not enough to make a generalization such as the one you're making.

anyways.... peace!!!

Your welcome..... :joint:

would be kind of interesting to see who the repubs put up against her, and i think it would be handing the election to the dems.
just like the tea partiers, who, if you think about it are taking votes away from the repubs. 2 small patries to deal with instead of 1 big one....... votes thrown away.

I just can't see her running on anybody's ticket. She is not ready for the presidency. She has some sort of appeal, I don't know if it's her charisma, her kinda do-able librarian charm or what but there is a segment of the populace who relates to her. Does't matter though because she is ill prepared for the highest office in the land. bongsmilie

I have made some preparations, but hope I never need to use. Ar-15, LR308(Semi Auto Sniper System), AK-47, Glock 9mm. 1500 rounds of ammo for each gun. 3 months worth of freeze dried, MRE, and canned food. Water filter with pump and Reverse Osmosis, 8K watt diesel generator ( Diesels will run on all sorts of stuff). 6 man tent, camp cook stove, 4 cold weather sleeping bags, 20 gallons of propane, 4 gallons of Kerosene. Bicycles and tire repair kit. First aid kit with suture bag and antibiotics. Ten(10) deep cycle 650 amp 12v batteries, Charge Controller and power inverter.

3 acre plot of land about 25 miles from town that has a nearly fallen over structure which I would like to remove and put an older used trailer house on the old foundation. I am working on slowly purchasing a Solar panel array, I will need about 20 of these panels to do what I want and at about $900 for each panel its going to take me a while to get it all( I need about 4k watts minimum). But ultimately I would prefer to farm the land ( I grow a veggie garden every year at my home in town) and use the solar power to provide electricity. The batteries would store power for the night time and the Generator would be used in times of need. The land already has a working well and there is a large lake just 1/4 mile away so water should not be too much of an issue. I also will bring fishing poles and misc fishing equipment as the lake has plenty of fish.

I also have about 3,000 ounces of silver buried in various spots and about 3 ounces of gold and 500 ounces of silver that I hold in case I need to liquidate some quickly. I have no debt other than a Mortgage which is not much of a payment since I put a large down payment on it.

Check out Sun Electronics for really good prices on Solar panels and components. They are in Miami, Fla and even with shipping costs are very very competitive.
This message brought to you via power made from components they carry.

I bet you can do the installation too, you'll save a ton of money that way. Also consider 12 volt for short term, but 24 volt for a system that has 4,000 watts. :peace:

The point you are most obviously missing is the definition of a new world order that they speak of is NOT the new world order you are so afraid of.
