Anyone know if he is a local?

Glad they caught him and hope that if convicted he serves an impactful prison sentence and receives mental help.

I feel like everyone knows something is wrong, but the people in charge of doing something about it are also in on it…so we’re all just waiting around for some crazy shoe to fall, that will green light us into this second revolutionary war we probably need.

Maybe aliens come down to save us from ourselves, maybe Pelosi’s face falls off and there’s a lizard there, maybe everyone currently restricted by gag orders and NDA’s just says “screw it” and starts whistleblowing on all the awful things our government has done. If people truly *knew* about the atrocities our federal government has committed not only against foreign countries…but against our own people, the public would turn on them in a heartbeat

Why won’t they release the names of Ghilaine Maxwell’s child sex trafficking clients?

Why isn’t the FBI looking for the actual aggressors on January 6th, the suspect that laid the pipe bombs, or the person that opened the Capitol’s magnetic doors from the inside?

Why won’t they explain how teenagers living with their grandmothers could afford thousands of dollars in gear in the Uvalde and the Buffalo shootings? Why can’t they provide those receipts?

Who ordered counting to stop on election night in all the battleground states, only to resume in private, and with a completely different outcome?

Why aren’t forensic audits being allowed at all, when it’s written into most state constitutions that if people demand it they have to get one?

Why did Ukraine send out 50 fake stories to drum up war support? Who ordered RT and Russian news banned before we even figured out that all the false information was coming from Ukraine?

How was a vaccine with zero long term testing ever deemed “safe and effective?” And who ordered the censorship of subsequent vaccine side effects across social media platforms?

How are Twitter and Facebook able to censor every account that goes against their narrative…but not pedophiles, hard core porn, and phishing scam accounts?

Why were they manipulating a virus to be fatally contagious to humans in a lab in the first place? This was a manmade disease, and yet no man has answered for it?

Why are we using voting machines that no one trusts that “glitch” all the time, that can be hacked by a 10 year old, when paper ballots and publicly observed hand counting are actually cheaper…plus people trust them more?

Why is Congress sending money overseas when we need here? Why will they defend Ukraine’s borders…but not our own?

Why is a foreign enemy like China even allowed to buy up all of our farmland? No one sees why that’s a bad idea?

When did we stop prosecuting people for child abuse? Call me old fashion, but back in my day if someone’s parent put their son in dresses and convinced him to chop his dick off…we’d make a horror movie about it.

Now,….. what is that Agenda YOU are so fucking tired of?

Every good conspiracy theory has a tiny little kernel of truth

At this point if you refuse to acknowledge this shit show is putting the American people and our American Republic in the crosshairs. How does one stop at that kernel of truth? One stops at the kernel of truth, because of the sheer inability to handle what lies beneath.

“Conspiracy theory” is why human child trafficking is allowed to continue, rampant, because people think there are good people who have our backs.

That is the biggest conspiracy theory of all

Government funding to not plant farm land. Oh the billions that dissapear. Every time they take trillions to combat the latest crisis. Open your eyes people. Amen to corporate serfdoms. Onservation

Then theres the erasing our history. The woke want all statues and books gone. They are racist you see. No they are what happened. Then there is the industrially produced RIVER. of pure drugs. That biden wont lift a finger to prevent or even slow down flowing in thru mexico. Drive around eureka of san fran. Or any major city in this nation. There are people completly obliterated by these drugs. And many die of overdose every day. And we are teaching our youth. About swapping their f@?;” ng gender around ???? As a people we have lost our minds. Our youth is the future. We need to be teaching about. Honor, compassion , integrity, work ethic. All those old outdated thing that worked for centuries that dont seem to be important to the woke

There is absolutely no sane defense of this. You must be insane to be acclimated to this propaganda.

This government needs to stop spending our children’s future, if we are asked to more with less, so can the administrative state

Nah. He looks like a mental patient who has an arson problem. Read that is a mental problem which is hard to cure. As for bigots, you should ask your President ol Joe of the Whitehood and his like minded minion supporters, the epitome of modern white racism today, hands down.

these are the kind of people that are currently or have been previously on the Humboldt County’s bookable arrest warrant list, which he was on for an arrest on 2-24-20. you might want to take a look at that list which is updated every week. it’s currently 97 pages long.

What all the arson fires the last couple years?

Seems like arson is become more rampant these days. Could it be left over from the crowd chanting BURN IT DOWN continuing their terror campaign?

A pyromaniac father and son were setting the woods on fire to watch the world burn.

The kid asked his father “Are we breaking the law Dad?”

The father replied “Yes we arson.”
