Silly Me

April 16th, 2007

I thought the collapse of the U.S. Dollar was going to finally make it into the numbnut consciousness today. Silly me. Who knew that the worst mass shooting in U.S. history would happen on a day like this; when even the zombie media might have chosen to focus on the dire macroeconomic situation that is emerging?

Again, silly me.

    All you have to do is think POSITIVELY! What you visualize will happen!

    Waiting for the dollar to collapse is about as exciting as watching glaciers melt.

    Kevin,

    This is a test comment to see if it will get through.

    Pretty obvious isn’t it? We should be grateful that our rulers were content with just 1% of a 9/11 this time. However, like all sequels, Columbine II will fade quickly.

    Kevin,
    Big U.S.A.mediaBrother will spin this shooting story until it is drier than the spin cycle in a Staber washer.Can’t wait to hear that it was the work of Al Quaeda! Allah is great!
    Doesn’t change a thing about the reality of the dollar, going down as Frank Zappa would say, all the way down.
    I’ve lived near Blacksburg, VA in what seems another incarnation. Granted, my life spent there was over 20 years ago. But this part of the U.S. of A was the most rampantly racist culture I’ve yet to experience in my lifetime. Hatred of all things “different.” I find myself unable to feel sorry for the families of those who died today. I am thin skinnedthin, I sould But why should I grieve for those I don’t know who die by violence in the US more than the every day experience of death in Iraq? I don’t think so.
    The dollar is going down, all the way down.

    I know, I was thinking the same thing. What are the odds? I was looking for a false flag; the possibilities are endless, and we get this sickening tragedy. This will dominate massive airtime, of course. Consider it a god-send, for the devil.

  8. The “worst mass shooting in U.S. history?”

    Which U.S. history are you referring to? The one without all of the suppressed massacres? The one without the KKK?

    The U.S. has stuff in its past that where even subversive, Marxist-libertarian-anarcho-syndicalists-whatdoyougottand Illrebelagainst-it types would fear to tread, if they knew it existed in the first place.

    It was the deadliest shooting rampage in American history and came nearly eight years to the day after 13 people died at Columbine High School in Colorado at the hands of two disaffected students who then killed themselves.

    Ozzy’s right. Sand Creek… Wounded Knee… etc…

    With all due respect, this is nothing.

    :o)

    One word springs immediately to mind: Monarch.

    False flag operation indeed. Just another Manchurian Candidate whose buttons were pushed, sacrificed to the media flames, providing plenty of hand-wringing tragedy to push the “boring financial news” developing right under the nations just a few pages deeper.

    Of course, all the usual garbage debate will ensue, about “people killing people” and all that badly played jazz. Criees for “safety” will bring yet another dark piece of social legislation forward, already ghost-written and waiting in the wings for just such a “tragedy” to unfold — right on schedule.

    Or maybe all these heavy “condensation” trails being sprayed over our region this Monday morning are affecting my judgment. Color me a paranoid expat, but I’ve reached the point where nothing surprises me much anymore.

    I intentionally avoided posting my earlier suspicions — re: possible false flag ops — on the dollar thread, as I didn’t want to distract from the issue at hand. Now I’m wondering if I shouldn’t have acted on the instinct, if only to have demonstrated that it is possible to “feel” these sorts of events coming down the pike.

    At once, witnessing the onset of a media-dominating event like this also seems to confirm in a backhanded way that the PPT will NOT be working overtime this week.

    And seeing that PPT I’ve just typed reminds me once again why I find acronyms scary in a purely linguistic sort of way:

    ABC CIA NBC FBI CBS HBO NRA AARP KKK MBA USA AFU UFO DEA AOL WHO PhD NIH NEA ATF ACLU USN USSR MAD AMA FDA DOA… and the list goes on and on and on.

    @ Ozzy and Jack-booted,

    The previous benchmark for this type of incident was the Charles Whitman incident in Texas.

    Got it?

    Good.

    Corrections: it is, of course, Tuesday morning and not Monday. Also, left out the word “nose” right after “nation’s” in the first paragraph.

    Wow Eileen, if you can’t feel sorry for the families of murdered 19 year olds who weren’t even alive when you lived in Blacksburg, you’re pretty far gone.

    EXACTLY! Nothing, and I mean NOTHING, happens in this country that has not been planned, organized and executed by our friendly “Corpofascist” puppetmasters. We are like the proverbial frogs in a pot of hot water, the heat slowly being turned up….

  16. As the wise man said: “It’s not as bad as that, it’s worse . . . much . . . much worse.”

    “Eliminationism” in the “U.S.A?”

    But I thought that only Stalinists, Nazis, Maoists, and Imperialists do things like that. Surely not in America.

    Kevin, I love you, but you need more historical perspective if you are truly to appreciate just how monstrous the human condition is.

    The problem with things like Columbine, Kent State, etc. is that they only focus on violence directed at persons of relative privilege.

    Nobody gives a flying fuck about how many “weak” and “impoverished” people disappear. But their disappearances are still significant because they show that the Beast still lurks in the hearts of men. Like all of those women who are being murdered on the Mexican border. Sure, I’m not a poor Mexican woman, but the people who hunt them would just as easily hunt me as them.

    Basically, when it all goes down, when plenty becomes scarcity, people revert to animalistic behavior.

    The newly freed blacks were doing well economically. But then the firebombings and shootings from their white brethren would put them back in their place.

    For persons of color, these things are nothing new.

    Wow,
    I guess I need to write my replies to this site before the fatigue of my exciting lifestyle sets in (snark). To clarify Brendan, I really may be well gone but it is not because I don’t care about death by violence. I was attempting to say in my stumbling speech that I don’t understand why this act of violence and killing in the U.S. should be front and center news when tragedies like these are occuring EVERY DAY in Iraq. I think Raw Story had an article today that showed 51 students and 14 professors were killed in an Iraq attack yesterday. I am beyond “feeling sorry.” I am numb and my spirit shrivels visualizing the stacks of stacks of human beings being killed in what I am now going to refer to as “the Iraqi Holocaust.” That the “media” relegates the deaths in Iraq to the back pages, and then goes full throttle when less than 100 people die in the U.S. is to me, such hypocrisy. That is why I wrote that last night. How can I send my heart to this U.S. event when the Iraqi Holocaust unfolds every day with no mention by the U.S. media?
    And oh, back on topic – the dollar there he/she/it went today?
    Buying gold anyone?
    Peace is my business. My only business.

    It is a terrible thing for those who were killed by this nut, and it’s a terrible thing for the families of those killed by this nut. Was the nut a secret sharer? Who knows …. probably.

    Were the events of the day pretty normal for “liberated” Iraq? Yes.

    So, don’t expect a lot of sympathy from the world when this kind of horror is happening every day in countries the USA “liberated”

  19. Eileen, we were only talking about mass murders, not genocides. Didn’t you know that their was a difference?

    Yes, let’s not forget the Iraqi genocide, and the African genocide(s) etc. etc. etc. etc. etc. etc. etc. ad nauseum ad absurdum.

    Yup.

    It seems that, to the MSM, the “lighter” your skin color is the more you matter…
