Un "$^%@ing" Believeable
« on: November 06, 2006, 11:57:02 PM »
www.ernesthancock.com

I saw one of his "political" posters on the side of Tatum and Shea.

I was pretty surprised at the time.
I was even more-so surprised when I saw all the "stuff" he supported on his website.

To me, the V in "still Voting" represents an upside down Anarchy insignia.
It also resembles the "V for Vendeta" symbol (as according to the website).
Either way, it's STRIKINGLY unblievable to actually have people running for office with that kind of mindset.

His sight was very jumbled, and this is what I got out of it (tell me if it is right or not):
He believes there is a 9/11 conspiracy
He believes there is a voting conspiracy
And other shit like that

Oh, and he's named Ernest.  That's funny.

The 9/11 video is total bs. If they are so scholorly then why did they say in "1945 a B-52 bomber" crashed into the empire state building (I listened to it three times to make sure that was the bs I was hearing). Man no wonder we won WWII we had B52s.

Hancock was the one libertarian I DIDN'T vote for this election.  Its dingbats like him that discredit the logical and principle cores of libertarianism (note the lowercase "l") with spooks about conspiracy theories and other nonsense.  

The dude even told people not to vote, which is the complete opposite of what a campaign is about.  The dude needs to crawl back into his tin-covered hat.  He's not a libertarian, just an attention whore.  He had no intention of winning, so while people looking at individual candiates will know not to take him seriously, people only looking at the "LBT" next to his name will write off the whole party.

David Schlosser (L), on the other hand, actually ran a serious campaign this year in AZ-1 for Congress without having to be completely retarded.

I know a B-25 "Mitchell" did, but a B-52 certanly did not as they state in the flick. Trust me I even brought my dad in to make sure I heard correctly. If they dont have the kind of quality control that would catch that or the listener base that would jump on that to get it fixed, it clearly has no check on content correctness which leaves me to ponder about the other things they portray as facts.

The Empire state building was made of huge chunks of rock, more like the pyramids of Egypt than the WTC buildings were, being built in modern cost-effective techniques that are more like making an origami crane than a building in the traditional sense.  There was an entire doc made on the buildings with one of the architects on the History channel long, long ago in 2002 that explained why the WTC fell and not the Empire State.

Thus, one can conclude that the Loose Change video creator, is a douche.

Yea, that's where the elevator operator fell 70 stories in the elevator and lived.  She set a world record.  ;)

Not to get too off topic but the WTC were constructed rather strangely as buildings go. They were like an egg with an outer shell of steel beams and a softer inner core. This was done to increase the useable space for offices with no supporting beams to obscure the inner areas. I actually was in and on top of both in march of 2001. When the planes hit and effectivley broke the eggshell structural failure was bound to happen. All the Bs about a controlled demo on the buildings couldnt happen because the WTC wernt build like a traditional building that could be demo-ed in the same manner, if you guys noticed all the steelworkers cutting up the beams that made up the exterior when they were cleaning it up.

I would like to see the security cameras footage released and effectively shut up all the al-qaida sympathizers.

All that aside, I am glad that someone has the balls to go against the mainstream, even if I disagree with what they say.

I know Ernie personally...he's a friend.  While he might be one who doesn't shy away from attention, let me assure you that he isn't the loon some of you wish to paint him as.

While I am not in agreement with him on the 9-11 thing (sometimes a cigar is just a cigar), there are some VERY valid points he makes on the validity and security surrounding voting and electronic voting machines and vote-fraud in general.

His stance on not voting also has some interesting angles.

Let's say we all are sitting around looking at each other's airsoft gear.  I see DXH's gear and say "Let's have a vote to divvy up his gear.  All in favor say "aye", all opposed "Nay"."

So, in the end, it's 6-1, with DXH being the lone "No" vote.  We begin to divvy up his gear.  He complains.

He voted, didn't he?  Therefore he was sanctioning the results.  By complaining now, he's just being a sore loser, right?

Rewind a bit.

I call for the vote.  It's 6-0.  He doesn't vote. In fact, he says "anyone tries to take my gear, I'll have you arrested for theft" and perhaps implies physical protection of his goods.

By participating in the elections, you de facto agree to abide by the results, even if they are contrary to your beliefs or end up being, in some ways, unconstitutional.

Ernie has a lot of knowledge about Arizona politics. Don't dismiss him out of hand.

So basically you're saying Ernest doesn't want you to vote because he doesn't want people to bitch?

- That is interesting, and a good point, but it bothers me that some of his claims are backwards, bullshit.
