    A while back, a Craigslist ad for paid liberal protestors was found.

    And Kavanaugh protestors were found being paid.
    I'm certainly not saying that Soros and others haven't help fund leftist beliefs. I just have a hard time believing that there is a nefarious group of billionaires spearheading a take over of the United States. Sounds a lot like the "illuminati" and "NWO" conspiracies.

    easy rider,

    Out of curiosity, HOW MANY people do you know who claim to be "Social Justice Warriors"/Antifas/"protestors" who are NOT also "militants"??
    Maybe you've forgotten where I work? Now I'm not saying that I know there are Antifa there, but I know many have been complicit.

    To All,

    In October 2017, Robert P______ of the VA Good Government Assn videotaped a man "passing out a large sum of cash" to individual members of a group of "protestors" near the Lincoln Memorial. = When they realized that they were being recorded on video, "the bag man" & all of the "protestors" scattered to the 4 winds.
    (The VGGA sent copies of the video to ALL of the DC & VA television stations by certified mail but to my knowledge NONE of the stations broadcasted the video on TV.)

    yours, satx

    I thought it was general knowledge, I work at a college. Not to say that the college itself has been promoting leftist ideals, but many students come from many areas

    Perhaps.

    But yet are they not funding much of the leftist movement and leftist candidates which would like to control the US? Now, they say they want to control the US through the existing government. But if they ever get the WH, Senate and House, we may no longer recognize the government. And I don't think that is tinfoil material.

    Perhaps the method is not the same, but the end result might not be all that different.

    And if you read much of what I said earlier on in this thread you would probably know the answer to that question. I do see the actions of the MSM and the leftist politicians, and that concerns me greatly.

    If it comes to your neighborhood then yes you should absolutely defend your property and help like minded neighbors defend theirs.

    Do you raise any of your own food?
    No, I have some prepper stuff, but it's not too great for growing here.

    One might wonder about the following: just who has been financing the hoards of immigrants that have surged up from S. America; who is creating and disseminating the controversial political narratives which ubiquitously spring forth across the country as if on command; who finances and directs the activities where BLM, ANTIFA and/or the strangest organizations of bizarre people suddenly appear equipped with signs and slogans in protest against problems that simply do not exist, or are virtually insignificant to our society (male toxicity, white privilege, women’s rights, social justice, gentrification, economic inequality, racism, on and on.....) with one common denominator..... it’s all concocted to distract, distort and destroy our national unity and undermine the foundations of our culture.

    Circumstantial evidence consisting of professionally devised strategic political narratives; coordinated support from politicians, public figures, Newspaper and Media Journalists, and groomed gadfly antagonists like David Hogg all parroting EXACTLY the same key words and phrases; timely, opportunistic red flag events; sudden accusations of past wrongdoing by political candidates or incumbents that uncannily appear at just the right time in election cycles; untimely deaths of witnesses and whistleblowers; a remarkably consistent consensus of opinion reflected in the voting pattern of Democratic Congressional Representatives. All this points to a single powerful organized system of command and control. The adage, “Where there’s smoke, there’s fire.” seems apropos in this time of cultural upheaval.

    The USA is nearly the only western country that has resisted the socialist onslaught. Europe is a mess and Britain is shaken. The only major countries that are unscathed by this kind of political unrest and social chaos are China and Russia.....and it isn’t beyond speculation to suspect that one or both of them may be involved with our problems here at home.

    I am not saying that all this is so, but I’m watching.....which is more than a vast majority of our professional journalists are doing.

    Everyone have a great Independence Day (while we still have our independence).

    If more of this goes on we just might be able to avoid armed conflict.

    This IS the "right" or correct response. HOWEVER given the track record of the left, and Antifa in particular, I suspect that any "wins" we record in the courts, or even the legislatures, will be met with escalated violence with masks on.
    God help them if they come to Texas with their brand of BS.

    It's all a little too organized and financed to not have a person/group planning something.

    I agree 100%. what we are seeing is organized by someone or something. Whoever it is, I would call it evil.

    Every time we have directed more money to higher education it has simply resulted in an increased per capita. Not hard to figure out.


    High speed rail? For what purpose? What would be gained. You might claim cheap transit but your have to ignore that increased cost you just put on fuel in order to pay for the rail. You are attempting to compare the US to nations that are smaller than most of our states and pretend their solutions are in any way comparable.

    I also find the insertion of “conscientious” to be very telling in that it attempts to instill the idea that these ideas are “good” or “right” and it’s just a matter of making the investment when in reality many of these ideas have shown to be detrimental (increasing funding to higher education). If you want to consider these ideas it should be done from a neutral viewpoint, not one in which they’ve already been deemed the “conscientious” choice.
