Just so the next topic is not Loose Change, I am locking this until there is a credible source.

Actual crime at Cosmic Ping Pong!

I suppose this is the political reality we live in and have to get used to. Ridiculous conspiracy theories becoming too close to mainstream and causing like this to happen. Not that its really anything new. Its just more visible I suppose.

Less than intelligent man cant wait for trump to get in office to starts investigations properly so goes and gets himself arrested while scaring the bejeezus out of customers and staff of pizzerea, simultaniously tainting the concept of a possible paedophile ring to the general public with the veneer of crazy.

This is annoying because it's not as much of a ridiculous conspiracy theory than Hooahguy says; the Podestas are into some freaky stuff such as hanging borderline bondage art of preteen girls in their home not to mention the spirit cooking stuff.

All of this being exacerbated by really questionable events such as an email saying "old gang" would meet at a farm with a guarantee of three girls, aged 11, 9, and 7 would be there in a pool for "entertainment". The Pizza thing comes in with another email where Podesta's friends apparantly spent $65K in one night on "pizza" with some really bizzare deliberation over what they want to get.

But from your reply, I presume you are a follower of the Conspiracy theory.

Although this seems very far fetched, some things that eventually became reality were equally, if not more far fetched - be that the Snowdon materials or historic cases of abuse in the UK where we are doing the traditional sort of enquiry that keeps on going on until everyone involved is dead.

I find it quit interesting that any thing termed a conspiracy automatically acquires theory at its end when it reaches public discourse.

Pizzagate came into the public’s view from hacked emails and so far as I know it is still a part of a real federal investigation. That investigation may or may not become known, dependant on what is found and the power and influence of those involved.

That a crazy became involved, because of internet investigators was inevitable.

Most of these “so called” Conspiracy Theories only arise because some people actually READ documents, books, or other information put out by the actual people or organisations implicated in the conspiracies and watch it as it becomes public policy or is acted upon by the groups or government.

Once someone brings it to the public it either becomes a victim of a misinformation campaign or wild speculation. Very few are made up out of whole cloth.

Easy example: The Trilateral Commission, in their original mission statement, they said they were working to bring about a New World Economic Order. When George H.W. Bush & Bill Clinton (members or former members of the Trilateral Commission) started making speeches about the New World Order people began to investigate in order to see what they stood for and to scrutinise its membership. The group’s own publications have lead to almost every “Conspiracy Theory” that is out there and that everyone finds so outrageous, with the possible exceptions of Alien Invasions and the Bavarian Illuminati.

When someone says Globalists are working to bring about a global fascist state, it brings you back to David Rockefeller, The Trilateral Commission, and all the other organisations he is the founder, or long time high ranking member of.

Naturally there is much that is only speculation or down right misinformation but at least you could know enough that when groups or organisations are viewed with suspicion, that this is the why and the wherefore of it all.

Of course they don’t use the word fascist anywhere but the political philosophy alone leads one to that conclusion.

It is exactly what he said: "Ridiculous conspiracy theories becoming too close to mainstream"

With the use of the word "mainstream" not "reality", unless it was a typo, hooahguy said ridiculous conspiracy theories that become widely known about, not proven to not be ridiculous.

And yes I am a follower of the conspiracy in that I have read through it and find reason to suspect some awful things have been happening behind the scenes in the Clinton campaign, whether this resteraunt has anything to do with it is a minor detail and something the feds should be looking into not the denizens of reddit or this gun toting imbecile.

Just a couple of words for this - beyond worrying. When facts are all of a sudden irrelevant, we have a huge problem on our hands.
