It almost goes without saying, but if there is any sort of large catastrophe/event, please, PLEASE everyone do your best to save every single piece of footage you see. You know how quickly "errors" can be removed from archives and online. Buy a stack of DVDs to burn.
Let's not rely on another 911 commission for the answers.

Ron Paul needs to go mainstream with this. Him being involved with Alex Jones just makes him look senile and completely out of his mind.

My son is a gunsmith and works in a gunshop here in TX. Week before last the feds audited his shop. When I asked him if any other shops were audited, he told me that every gunshop in TX was with the reason given that they wanted to trace what was going into Mexico.
As we learn more and more about this corrupt gov't and that groups like ACORN will be involved in life and death decisions for us in the proposed HR 3200, I am convinced that the administration will create a crisis or event with the result being that they will attempt to disarm us.

Why would this happen? I mean what i happening in the US that is so bad?
I'm missing something. But really would like to know why all of this horrible stuff will happen when the market is going back up, housing is starting to turn around, or at least not get worse, job losses are slowing.
Is it the dollar? Or China?

The market isn't actually going up. It's just that so much new money has been introduced, that prices by default go up(inflation).
Like if tomorrow you doubled the amount of money, then the prices of things would also double.
You gotta look at purchasing power, rather than $$$ amounts. If you start making twice as much money, but then everything you buy costs twice as much, it's not really a raise. Even though you make more in $$$ amounts, your purchasing power is the same.
Likewise, this is also how they steal money from your pocket without you realizing it. If they add all that money, and you didn't get a raise(I haven't lately), then the prices go up and you lost your purchasing power. But they didn't touch the dollar amount of your income and such.

So why are they doing this? Wouldn't they end up screwing themselves in the end?
What can anyone do with a raped and spent USA? Wouldn't it be in everyone's best interests to not screw over the middle class/poor, the people who buy things here and pay taxes?

I still think that if you learn to remove all your own FEARS then whatever TPTB throw our way won't matter at all.
If your not fearful then they lose power.

I don't really think the USA is raped OR spent. We are sitting on huge oil reserves, we have phenomenal natural resources and a hell of a lot of farmland.
The problem is the people. You, and me. The ones that don't want to blindly follow direction. The ones that are tired of the waste, fraud and abuse. The ones that are trying to think for themselves.
We stand in the way utopia.
