Spooking the Herd

If they do find any, I wonder what percent will be embedded feds…

If they can’t provoke the low-hanging fruit, they need to find some other way to conflate them with us.

Point/Counterpoint

I can’t post this online because it’s not quite public yet, but government officials had a town meeting with all of the residents of chimney rock and basically told them the town was being bulldozed, bodies and all and the land was being seized by the federal government… [More]

Vs.

NO GOVERNMENT SEIZURE OF CHIMNEY ROCK: There was no “special meeting” held in Chimney Rock on October 2nd involving discussions of the federal, state, or local governments seizing the town. These claims are entirely false. [More]

The only thing we know for certain is that we have past examples of provocateurs pushing low-hanging fruit into doing stupid and violent things that don’t work in our favor.

My thoughts on spreading unverified rumors haven’t changed.

As I noted yesterday, “The conspiracy theorist in me says the intent is to sacrifice low-level FEMA pawns and provoke a low-hanging fruit first strike to crack down on the ‘greatest threat.’”

Always ask “Cui bono?”

A Crash Course in Politics

North Carolina House of Representatives Speaker Tim Moore, another state congressman, and Moore’s security were driving back to the state capital from an event when a vehicle repeatedly rammed into the back of them, the speaker’s spokeswoman said Thursday. [More]

Coincidentally, with quotation marks, if you like, this was the day after the House voted to repeal handgun purchase permits. In any case, it’s fair to question if this was garden variety ‘roid rage or if he was targeted

Check out the cheesy excuse Rep. Michael Wray gave for voting against the bill he originally sponsored– no doubt his earlier feigned support was to sucker the Fudds at election time. What a weasel.

Ultimately, there is no such thing as a “pro-gun Democrat.” Besides, it’s never been about guns anyway.

As the Dam Breaks

“Real reporters” gradually discover what we’ve been talking about for days.

  • UK’s Independent: “Video shows police shooting unarmed disabled man”
  • New York Post: “Unarmed ‘disabled’ man wrongly suspected of holding hostage is shot by cops”

Even the local ABC 15 News grudgingly admits “The surveillance footage released by Kloepfer appears to show a conflicting account of the event.” and contains one other bit of happy news:

The State Bureau of Investigations has opened an investigation into the shooting.

They could’ve said something

Sorry– still nothing on CNN or any of the major papers.

Surprised?

Just let’s not forget where credit is due.
