I'd like to get some more info/discussion on this topic.

I heard somewhere (here's to you b00bie) that the fathers of the two asshats who committed the latest mass murders were supposed to testify on this scandal. I don't know if they did or didn't.

Feel free to share your links and information.

I specifically would like to know any information about Robert Holmes and/or Peter Lanza testifying in this case.
 
I don't think people realize how huge of a deal this thing may be, especially with the connections to the shootings, if true.

Seems like a gigantic smokescreen to me.

What also opened my eyes initially at this was the fact that the norm for cops these days is to shoot first and ask questions later. On too many accounts have we all seen this even with unarmed people. This guy shot plenty of people killing over 12 yet he gives up completely unscathed. Its the only thing you didn't mention.

We saw an incident in Cleveland that was quite the opposite, if you'll recall.

The worst thing about all this from my perspective is that I'm far from a conspiracy theorist so I don't want to believe it. With the recent shooting, the mentally deranged 20 year old took his own life.

I'm just really skeptical right now.

The end of the Mayan Calendar was supposed to happen....when exactly did this get into the mainstream heads? Anywhere around 2006-2010 and I'm even more skeptical.

Another shooting (publicized) just takes place in Central PA (4 Dead, Including Shooter, in Central Pennsylvania) - http://fox8.com/2012/12/21/4-dead-including-shooter-in-central-pennsylvania/

As the NRA said, I blame the media for the demonization of guns, along with our infatuation with violence (again, media driven via video games and movies, bad parenting, etc).

The set up here is almost too real not to be true. I also know that the Bush family has huge deposits of land in South America on the largest fresh water land reserves in the world. I also know that I'm not 100% sold on exactly what happened on 9/11.


All this just doesn't sit well with me, especially with the talk about the 2nd amendment on the forefront of American politics.

Scoff all you want. You do what you need to do with this information.

Edit button, dude.

I feel like Big Mar went from fun stoner who's a little bit of a pedo to a younger and slightly more open minded Doug Heil 2.0.

“UBS’s misconduct is, although similar in nature, considerably more serious than Barclays’ because it was more widespread within the firm . . . More individuals, including Managers and Senior Managers, participated in or knew about the manipulation and there were more instances of individual manipulation, across more currencies. Furthermore, the extent to which UBS colluded with others was significantly greater and involved financial rewards being paid to Broker Firms.”

For the global financial industry, this ruling is just the beginning. Several other large banks should still expect enforcement actions brought against them, and any bank involved in the scandal should expect to be fighting lawsuits involving LIBOR for years to come. On October 15, The Financial Times reported on a lawsuit brought against 12 of the world’s largest banks by five Alabama homeowners, which alleges that rate manipulation increased the interest they had to pay on their mortgages by thousands of dollars. Given how widely used LIBOR is to price financial instruments, homeowners are just one group that could have potentially lost money due to rate manipulation. In light of these suits and regulatory actions still to come, expect the financial crime of the century to be with us for years to come.


We've been getting royally fucked for years. This is mind blowing.

It is...but the coincidental ties to the two shootings are not mind-blowing.

Until you actually dig deeper and understand what both of those men do and who they are tied to.

Jigo...you believe what you want to.

You're just hearing it here first a little sooner than most other people.

People have dug deeper and written articles that have been posted already...so you're not the first. :chuckles:

Just for fun...please explain how you think the future testimony of these two kids fathers impacted their decision to attack dozens of people and in Lanza's case, commit suicide?

They were made to do it or it was staged.

Think of that one for a second Jigo.

Do you really think anyone gives a shit about some mentally ill kids? No........

This has nothing to do with the kids decision to attack people.

We're asking ourselves the wrong questions......
