    Though I'm not certain about FEMA camps I'm certain that this guy was basically told STFU!

    Skip straight to 2:00 minutes if you don't have time to watch it in full.

    To post a youtube video you simply need to put the code found after the "=" into the youtube tags:

    Thanks for the correct syntax.

    Well, has anyone jumped to 2:00 minutes to hear what good ol' Glen has to say?

    Emergency prisons for potential civil unrest. What's the problem?
    Worst case scenario in America, all hell breaks loose and we get a repeat of what happened in New Orleans.

    I don't see a problem with the FEMA camps. :confused:

    I guess it depends what the source of the civil unrest is. ;)

    EDIT: PS - LOL at the dumb blonde! :)

    thats the problem, define civil unrest, Operation Garden Plot

    http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Operation_Garden_Plot

    was developed in response to the "civil unrest" of the 60s. The idea of any large scale detentions for people who disagree or rebel against the system is suspicious. Its another example of the ends justifying the means mentality which is wrong.

    Well political stability = good.

    Government overthrown = bad (see African Countries).

    Better the devil you know.

    I'd be more or less of the same opinion though its not what I'm highlighting here. Did you watch the clip? I'm just pointing out how Glen was politley told STFU after saying the following around 2:40:
    Name the monster in the dark and have no fear. There are more of us than them. We just have to be honest and open about these things. Name evil. America has got to stand up.
    It just strikes me as odd, thats all. Firstly, what he said and secondly how he was cut off.

    Main one, being Pro the Iraq War.

    Having said that, like any news network, they have standards.

    I follow you. They're a shower of bastards for knowingly pushing or concealing agendas.

    YEP, thought you would say that! :p

    I'll give you this, they will cover up anything critical of the US Defence forces. Their coverage of Iraq, Hurricanes etc. is laughable.

    Thing is, that shows they aren't a reputable source.

    Basically, they aren't going to allow any discussion of FEMA, TRUE or NOT.

    You see what I mean? Fox cutting him of air means nothing about FEMA, just FOX being right wing as usual? It doesn't add anything to the claims.

    I don't really follow where you're going with that comment.

    Agreed. While FEMA may or may not be the deathcamps they're alleged to be FOX's curtailing of Glen's outburst will no doubt spiral conspiracy theorists into a frenzy no less.

    You could have a politically stable fascist dictatorship or a politically stable Irish society or a politically stable theocracy, doesn't mean its good though. Better the devil you know, as with Churchills comment on socialism should be erased from history.

    I was watching "End of America" the other day and she mentioned this.

    Although i had previously seen it discussed here, in her context it did seem quite dodgy and less conspiritorial(?). Maybe im more influenced by hot older women.

    So let's get this straight we are now listening to Fox news in some way. The very Fox news that we are told not to trust ever. The same Fox news which reminds me of the old Soviet news agencies it's so one sided and full of crap.

    I suppose it can still be interesting to watch them and note what they are not saying?

    I listen to those i disagree with twice as closely as those who share my thoughts.

    Indeed, hidden or nefarious agendas and all that.
    Reminds me of that old saying.... but I dont want to say it because its so cliché,drab, worn out, ridden a few too many times and actually a bit depressing.

    The OP focuses on what is being said :confused:; the very reason why Glen seemed to be prompted to STFU.

    Interpreting what isn't been said is assumptive. Interesting, yes. But assumptive.
