41-Years Ago, “Barney Miller” Warned About What’s Happening Today
The Liberty Daily ^ | Apr. 16, 2022 | J.D. Rucker

Growing up, I would catch scenes from the show “Barney Miller,” a sitcom centered around a New York City police precinct. I was too young to understand most of the jokes but my parents loved it (my dad was a cop). In four decades, I hadn’t seen a scene from the show since they originally aired.

When the video below was sent to me, I figured it would be another loose connection between what we’re seeing today with a mention of “The New World Order” or something. As it turned out, the predictions (predictive programming?) were striking. Replace the bad guys joked about in that clip with the bad guys of today and… hmm.

If the Rockefellers were so powerful, why were they eaten by cannibals? I’m not powerful, and no cannibal has eaten me so far?

You really are as dumb as you act. I was hoping you were just pretending.

When you're 79, and she's 25, her beauty can be, ah, "seen with one eye"…

LOL. Hopefully one day you’ll be old enough to develop a sense of humor. Before the cannibals get you.

Humor is supposed to be funny, not weird.

Yeah, I remember that episode even when it first came out. It all sounded plausible and stupid at the same time. But it’s sounding more plausible and less stupid with each passing day.

I think he did. She called a friend who came over and they tried to dress him before calling the police. Only problem was they put his pants on backwards, but all was hushed up as best they could at the time. She got a nice settlement from the family to keep quiet.

By the way the lady wrote about it maybe years later I believe.

Yep, and he was dismissed as a conspiracy theorist. I guess they were programming the audience to dismiss these claims, way back then, for when they really unleashed their plan. That plan is now unfolding in front of our very own eyes, and most people now are still dismissing it as a conspiracy theory. I guess they will become believers sooner rather than later. By then it will most likely be too late.

I’m glad he did. There was an idiotic idea going around that Reagan and Ford would be “co-presidents”, with Reagan taking a ceremonial role and Ford doing most of the actual policy making.
