Dware notes: “And the fix is in!!!”

Treetops replies: And many at FR are quite satisfied.

Treetops, are you under the impression that there are a LOT of FReepers who believe the police/MSM narrative (one and the same) of evil bikers versus knight-like police officers and 177 people got arrested and punished because they deserved it for even being there in the first place?

Cboldt ... remember from another thread: -- "... dupes post about three times for every ONE post of an opposing viewpoint. --"

Thoughtful readers notice contents, and give substance more weight than volume. at least I hope that's the case, and based on feedback I've received over the years, I believe is the case, as well. In other words, don't sweat a large volume of repetitive remarks that don't advance a substantive argument.

Treetops and all, it's a MORALE-breaking goal I believe these dupes/trolls are shooting for when they post three times to every one post opposing them -- and if they succeed, it is worth sweating over because it means they are dividing and conquering even though they are a tiny minority.

WE know that the FReepers (those who've voiced an opinion one way or another, anyway) who are "quite satisfied" to see this abuse of power succeed, are FEWER THAN HALF IN NUMBERS than folks like you and me, who think the police narrative stinks. We EASILY double in numbers the dupes -- however, the dupes post so extremely heavily that it often looks like "many at FR" take their side, when in fact MORE THAN TWICE AS MANY REJECT IT.

Guys like Ethan Clive Osgood, for example -- unless he pays very big bucks to the FReepathon, he is a liability to FR and to American freedom.

Things just keep going more and more sideways in America and the "rule of law" administered by Civil Servants who are "more equal" than the citizens they ostensibly serve, is officially, dangerously broken -- Waco is a quiet throwing down of the gauntlet.

You needn't worry so much. I guarantee you that content wins the day. There are at least 100 times as many people reading, as there are posting, and most of that 100 sides with substance, not volume.

What you see as 2:1 here, in number of posters, is more like 90:1 among the readers.

Waco is a quiet throwing down of the gauntlet.

Automatic gunfire by prepositioned military forces into civilian crowds is neither quiet nor a mere gauntlet.

Any more than mass arrests of witnesses on capital charges with punitive bail by design, is public relations.

Not jumping on you. But let's be direct and blunt.

This biker killed at least 43 people during his tour of duty with the Hells Angels.

Yepper. Compared to those who believe the bikers were massively wronged that day; those who believe the narrative coming from Waco is miniscule. Mostly because anyone with even a modicum of common sense can see how this is way too similar to Waco One. The corruption runs deep within the LE side of this in Waco. Another word for good old boy club is ‘corruption’.

One big question now is; will the DA and those involved in this cover up get away with it. Time will tell but having a Waco PD cop as the Grand Jury Foreman reeks of good old boy corruption for sure.

I don’t see how a fair and impartial jury can be made up in the county Waco is in at this point. It would just be a dog and pony show put on by the DA and participating LEO’s.
