Ok so I joined survivalist boards yesterday, ya know just to get some fresh thoughts and ideas into my head. Most people on that thread are pretty level headed and good people. But there are a few that are just, well, off their rocker.

I copied this from a thread that was titled "American Death Camps". Sorry I'm laughing already as I type this. I know there were a few people here that were making the same claims that the government was building death camps, etc...


So first someone posts this:

"Recently I have noticed BOTH a red and blue disc, about the size of a nickel, and placed on the outside of my mailbox. They are relatively newly placed. They can be removed but are stuck really well. They are reasonably thick and would weather well. They are not just paper. They are reflective. I live off the main road, and I drove to town tonight carefully eyeing all the mailboxes along the way. The vast majority had yellow discs, which are reflective, and show up well in the car headlights. As I got into town, I noticed some larger colored discs on the curb at several houses. I would imagine they could be placed on door posts as well, or most any hard surface such as a wall. Go outside at dark with a flashlight and check it out, and see if they are in your area also.

Then someone replies with this:

LOL...those are for newspaper deliveries. Red if you only get weekday deliveries...blue if you get weekend deliveries as well. They are reflective because most deliveries are in the dark.....what a crackpot.


ROFL Some people are SOOOO paranoid

The following 3 pages of posts are people making fun of him and joking how the dots might to mark who gets shipped of to the death camps

Good day from Pheba, from the farm:
Don't have much time right now for posting. Between trying to do hay, tend veggie garden, tend roses, and AI cattle, there is no free time.
But I have been witnessing something eerie.
For some reason this has my paranoia bells clanging like crazy.
Pilgrim and i watch very little television. We do not have cable TV, but on occasion we watch local news.
Two nights ago we were waiting for the local news to come on. We happened to see a commercial advertising for police officers for the city of Columbia in Missouri.
We were both shocked. Since when do police departments need to advertise on television for recruits?
This kind of creeps me out. Aren't police officers supposed to be carefully screened, etc.
Then, just yesterday I was on my way to Mexico Missouri, and right there on the service road is a gigantic billboard advertising for recruits for the Hannibal, Missouri police force.
Okay folks. Can anybody give me a logical reason for this.
In my 53 years in Missouri I have never witnessed this type of recruiting for police departments.

How many police officers in Missouri are also in the National Guard or Army Reserve? Howmany National Guard and Reserve units are doing back to back tours in Irac? Just curious. That jut might have something to do with ads for new folks to join police forces. So far 719 Americans from Missouri have been injured in Iraq and 78 have been killed, I wonder how many of them were Missouri police officers?
