I was asked to be careful in how I share.
Yes, we went. You know that feeling you get when you feel like you are being fed a lie? It's not the first time we have checked something out for ourselves.
We drove around the area 20 times over two days to try to help us understand. We spent hours observing.
We did not see evidence of 25k. Hundreds, yes. A few thousand, we could see our way to believing that.
There are not the bodies, the vehicles, the support system, or the movements for that many. What is present seems far less.
There is the "money shot" that you are seeing from different sources with the C building that is the topic of so much conversation in the background. That particular spot is very clearly set up for the photo op.
The other roads which are closed do not have any where near that same presence. Some only have a snowplow. Another road had a box truck. Some roads had a police car. Some roads only had traffic cones. The BP people who guard the fence down south were guarding one road.
Logically thinking, if there were that many there, wouldn't you also see the vehicles needed to move that many around there too? And, if in such numbers, would they need to use the snowplows, box trucks, etc? Wouldn't they just use their own vehicles to send a stronger message?
We are sharing our observations and thought processes. That does not mean we are right. There could be something we are missing. Maybe they flew the builk of them in and they are all inside buildings or underground? Maybe the other 95-98% aren't coming until tomorrow and Tuesday? That would be a massive undertaking in a short amount of time. Still could be possible even with reports saying most of them are there NOW. We can't figure out where they could hide all of those bodies and vehicles and support tents, food, bathroom facilities, etc for that many out of sight. 25k is a massive number.
If there were even close to that many there, we would have seen some kind of evidence to support that.
The traffic in that Damaged City was heavy so people definitely are not avoiding the area out of fear. The people were relaxed and living life as normal pushing baby strollers, walking their pets, biking, jogging, and just standing around and talking. There were scattered buildings boarded up but not as many as it was made to seem.
The Natural Guardians :-) were relaxed, joking around with each other, a few were dancing due to the cold, one was smoking, some were sleeping in the trucks, others eating, etc. I danced in my seat with one. I waved and smiled at several, and they returned the same greeting.
The main place "for the crews" had the weapon out, but the majority did not have them in view. Why is that one spot "done up" so well while the others are present but definitely relaxed? Why would only that one spot be so well protected while others even closer to some of the areas had much less? Was it because of the view of the building behind it? Does the media use sensationalism? For what purposes?
I overheard one citizen reporter talking into his phone as he recorded a street that had very little in place. He was saying pretty much the same as you are reading here.
Clint and I were doing a run when we decided to just go see for ourselves. I took some pictures, but I only had my cell phone. As soon as I can, I'll share those separately.
Dear Reader, I do not often share my opinions on politics simply because I am not here to convince anyone of the rights or wrongs of any political party. A focused soldier does not muddy the mission. My mission is to share God's great love for mankind through His redemptive plan of salvation. That being said, I encourage you to take what the media says with a grain of salt. This is not the first time we have investigated and found contradictions in a big story. Be as wise as serpents and harmless as doves. Our enemy is very cunning, and one of his trademarks is deception.
Also note how you respond to things you see on the news. Are they informing you or are they telling you what to think? Does what you learn from the news make you question, research, investigate, observe, and think for yourself? Or, does it trigger an emotional response from you? Makes you FEEL a certain way? People are so very easily led by fear and other emotions. That's why our enemy uses those tactics. Ask God to protect your heart and mind and to give you insight to the truth. Love to all.
