Another person who scares the **** out of me... - mlb - 03-02-2008 08:14 PM
I went to see a co-worker's band last night. They played at a Ron Paul rally at a local bar. Between bands the guy who organized the rally got on stage and proceded to tell all of us how the world is nothing but conspiracies.
He said computers are all bad, they are used to track us. We need to get rid of them all together was his basic message.
Then he told us about Kroger and it's PLUS cards... they are nothing more than cards used for tracking us. While true, it does track us, I've never seen where they verify who you are when you sign up (they don't). I put in all fake info and was given a card. Plus, since I use a credit card, my CC company could track the info already (he doesn't mention this).
You can't trust the US government, but you can trust other governments...
He then went off on about 5 other conspiracy theory type things, can't remember what they were (sorry, too much beer, too much laughter, too much mocking to pay attention after the first 2 items).
Anybody who walked in to this rally to find out who Ron Paul is and his stances probably walked out and said that Ron Paul is a moron (even though he wasn't there). None of his real stances were discussed, just crap that the organizer wanted to say. It truly was embarrassing.
Something else interesting I noticed.... none of his literature at this point mention the Republican party. I'm guessing that he is preparing to become an independent after the primary's are over?
I hope that this isn't an average Ron Paul supporter, as if it is then all the crazy Green Party people have moved over to Paul. :)

Part of the 1% of Paul supporters who are truthers.
Unfortunately they're highly vocal.
Unfortunately they never shut up.
Unfortunately if they had an IQ higher than 60 they'd realize they could do far more good for Paul just by shutting the hell up than they ever could by spending their many days unemployed waving to people with signs alongside highways.

Heh... no doubt. I just sat there and shook my head. As someone who has followed RP, the guy absolutely did an injustice to the RP campaign.

My wife just reminded me that he talked about how we shouldn't pay our incomes taxes ( Fo Shizzle would like him). That traffic light cameras were just there so Big Brother could follow us around (not for revenue, as I believe).

If not him, then definitely one of his followers.
