    Yep, gonna believe THIS guy....
    G. Edward Griffin [[born November 7, 1931) is an American author, filmmaker, and conspiracy theorist. Griffin's writings promote a number of views and conspiracy theories regarding various of his political, defense and health care interests. In his book World Without Cancer, he argued in favor of a pseudo-scientific theory that asserted cancer to be a nutritional deficiency curable by consuming amygdalin. He is the author of The Creature from Jekyll Island [[1994), which promotes false theories about the motives behind the creation of the Federal Reserve System. He is an HIV/AIDS denialist, supports the 9/11 Truth movement[ and supports a specific John F. Kennedy assassination conspiracy theory. He also believes that the biblical Noah's Ark is located at the Durupınar site in Turkey.
    AND he's a Detroiter!!!
    Griffin was born in Detroit, Michigan, on November 7, 1931, and became a child voice actor on local radio from 1942 to 1947. He later emceed at WJR [[CBS), and continued as an assistant announcer at the public radio station WUOM. He earned his bachelor's degree from the University of Michigan in Ann Arbor in 1953, majoring in speech and communications. In 1954, he served in the United States Army, and in 1956 was discharged as a sergeant.
    Griffin worked as a writer for Curtis LeMay, vice presidential running mate for George Wallace during his 1968 United States Presidential campaign. Shortly thereafter, he began writing and producing documentary-style videos about the same controversial topics covered in his books, such as cancer, the historical authenticity of Noah's Ark, the Federal Reserve System, the Supreme Court of the United States, terrorism, subversion, and foreign policy

    No, that is my response; I wouldn't believe ANYTHING this nut job said. He's a rabid conspiracy theorist who has made up all sorts of crap out of whole cloth. Don't know how many more ways to say it. He's nuts.

    The guy worked for General LeMay, chief of staff of the us Air Force.

    You have no reason to say he's a nut job. In fact,.. calling names instead of refuting his positions screams to the world that you believe you are wrong.

    People that think they're right [[whether they are or not) will make an argument. People that think they're wrong will call names.

    What you're saying to Wheels is,.. "this guy is saying things I don't like, and I have no counter arguement".

    Mayor of Chicago

    We do not need federal troops to quell the riots,we need common sense gun control.

    She has to be smoking crack like Barry was if she is seeing little guns running about burning and looting the mile of fashion to the ground.

    Maybe it is a bunch of those cigarette lighter guns,they all got together and are burning the city down because of the attacks on smokers?

    She should just walk up to the gang members and ask them to turn in their guns.

    What I'm saying is the man is a conspiracy theorist that has come up with some horrible misinformation and I don't be leave a word he says. Why should something he touted back in 1969 be any different that the crap he touted in the 80's or 90's.
    And working for Curtis LeMay is no feather in his cap; he was the minion of George Wallace, in fact his running mate. Another stellar racist to go with your lord and master.

    Ok now I get it.

    Once you have been deemed a racist by the radical left anything you ever said or did will always be a lie.

    Their is no need to compare his words to what is happening today.

    It has to be all lies because he has thoughts you don’t agree with.

    'Anything they wanted to take, they can take it because these businesses have insurance.'

    Okay,now all they need to do is recommend an insurance company that will insure against civil unrest.

    But they cannot because no insurance company will.

    So what will happen is the major companies that can absorb the loss will survive,any independent or small businesses that cannot absorb the losses will shut.

    So all they are doing is their part in increasing the foothold of corporations while eliminating small businesses,next month they will be rioting because the corporations have taken over and then control the prevailing wage.

    Seattle police chief Carmen Best resigns today.

    The first African American police chief in the history of Seattle,30 years in the force working in every aspect,there was public outcry when she was chosen for the position because she was not even seeking it.But the public demanded she run.

    In the past few weeks she has drawn heat from the city council after they forced her to abandon the police precinct to the voilence,the city council refused to allow the city of Seattle police to use tear gas and rubber bullets to quell the violence.

    The tipping point came when the city council voted to remove 100 officers from the force and reduce the chiefs pay by half.

    The people that counter act saying this is not about actually defunding the police department’s are full of crap,this is exactly what it is about.

    A few weeks back protestors went to her house and the neighborhood had to take measures to stop the violence,she was not home at the time.

    The city council was quick to walk back the pay reduction after the press conference announced it to gain points with the rioters.

    I think if she spoke freely she would be saying,Seattle I am tired of your crap,see ya.

    Seattle BLM rioters are demanding homeowners willingly give up their property to Black people as a form of reparations because they’re “coming for it” one way or the other.

    -- Yes it's from Dailymail, but unlike much of our press here they provide photos that often convey more than what is said, or allowed to be said!

    Protests spark battles across the US: Antifa and Proud Boys brawl in Michigan etc...

    • Saturday marked 80th day of unrest across the US since George Floyd's death in Minneapolis on May 25
    • In Kalamazoo, Michigan, far-right Proud Boys fought anti-racism protesters at a rally organized by a church
    • In Portland, Oregon, two gunshots were fired after pro- and anti-police rallies clashed in the troubled city
    • Chicago on Saturday night was tense as BLM protesters squared off with police and skirmished broke out
    • Earlier on Saturday supporters of the Confederate flag confronted BLM activists at Stone Mountain, Georgia

    In 2020 America even the ice cream truck is 'racist'! And it's not because many of them are painted white.


    "Good Humor worked with Wu-Tang Clan founder RZA to create a new ice cream truck tune after the company learned the old song has racist roots dating back to the 1800s."

    I agree. The problem is that the racist lyrics are not part of the original song. They were added to a version of it more than 100 years afterwards, but that was done with many popular songs. Following this logic we'd be rewriting the tunes to just about every popular children's song for the last 100 years. Eeny, meeny, miny, moe anyone?

    This story starts 10 minutes into the 49 minute audio at:

    A Former White Nationalist Goes on the Record....

    How does a progressive young person go down the rabbit hole of the alt-right to embrace an ideology of hate? Samantha insists that she wasn’t a racist—she had once canvassed for Barack Obama, after all—but soon after joining the organization Identity Evropa she found herself rubbing shoulders with the neo-Nazi organizer Richard Spencer and chanting “Sieg heil.” When she left the group, she contacted the reporter Andrew Marantz to tell her story....
    It describes what can be none other than a cult — complete with fear of retaliation should one try to escape.

    ^^^ Oh my! There may be some white folks on the extreme left going the 'Sieg heil' road when they find no level of recompense, obeisance and guilt is sufficient.

    A crazy out working, yes I agree but extremeS beget alt other extremes sometimes!

    For all the talk about property damage in Minneapolis, what do you think about the video showing the man who started it all by smashing the first windows where soon later the first fire was set, how he's been identified by Minneapolis police, and how he's a white supremacist?

    Minneapolis police say 'Umbrella Man' was a white supremacist trying to incite George Floyd rioting
    https://www.startribune.com/police-u...ing/571932272/

    "A masked man who was seen in a viral video smashing the windows of a south Minneapolis auto parts store during the George Floyd protests, earning him the moniker "Umbrella Man," is suspected of ties with a white supremacist group and sought to incite racial tension, police said.

    A Minneapolis police arson investigator said the act of vandalism at the AutoZone on E. Lake Street helped spark a chain reaction that led to days of looting and rioting. The store was among dozens of buildings across the city that burned to the ground in the days that followed.

    "This was the first fire that set off a string of fires and looting throughout the precinct and the rest of the city," Sgt. Erika Christensen wrote in a search warrant affidavit filed in court this week. "Until the actions of the person your affiant has been calling 'Umbrella Man,' the protests had been relatively peaceful. The actions of this person created an atmosphere of hostility and tension. Your affiant believes that this individual's sole aim was to incite violence."

    Here's a much better video of "Umbrella Man" by Minneapolis TV station KARE than the one linked to by the Star-Tribune:
    https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aoSe1H7rnUw

    Think that was an isolated incident?
    Uh huh.

    ^ I kinda thought it might be a white supremacist among the protestors.

    Then you had the white gal that accused the black man of giving her some explosives to throw [[or was it that he threw them?).

    Spin the knob -- there's all kinds!

    In the meantime you have this.......

    This no longer has anything to do with civil rights, George Floyd, or equality. It's just anarchy, rioting, and looting. Whether it's white supremacist, antifa, or blm, the whole thing is in a free fall.
