I was fine with BG, but discussing his posts was a futile exercise because he couldn't back up his allegations except with conspiracy websites and anything that refuted those allegations was ignored. It was a number of years ago so I'm not sure, but I don't believe I ever joined in on the off topic bash fests his posts could generate. He really did seem like a nice enough guy and the way I see it the creation of the Gorilla Cage was more to stop the off topic bashing than because people couldn't handle the truth or whatever. I never met BG and didn't know him at all, but nothing in Castor's post surprises me in the least. One other thing, my inclination to believe these kinds of things doesn't change a bit whoever the resident of the White House is at the time. |

I can't speak for what they plan for the active duty guys to do in those sorts of incidents, though. My (admittedly limited) experience in this stuff is only from the National Guard side.

And if those alleged 'coffins' were such a secret, then 2 guys plus a cameraman would never have been allowed to get that close to them.

Saying they were all about UN soldiers in Colorado was hyperbole but that was one discussion in particular I do remember having with BG. I see nothing wrong with asking for some sort of proof. When the response is only conspiracy websites some credibility is lost. After enough of those times occur little credibility remains. Once that happens it is inevitable that posts by that individual will be met with either crickets or abuse. Taking those posts out of "the flow of traffic" so to speak is not a disservice, it is a favor. |

Isn't the inability to stay focussed or dedicated to a single goal one of the symptoms of Schizophrenia? Just saying.

It's pretty hard to take someone seriously when he just tosses out something completely out of left field, then gets confused and upset that you don't automatically agree with him

It's hard to take someone seriously when they believe that even the most mundane of common occurrences are somehow linked to one of several grand conspiracies that would involve hundreds or thousands of people keeping absolutely lip-tight about it. Just saying.
