    Title pretty much says it all. Below is a video from the Josh Tolley show. He interviews the marines mother. You get all the details.

    Here's his FB page, http://www.facebook.com/brandon.raub & this one, https://www.facebook.com/raub.brandon?sk=wall

    He's a 9/11 truther :laughing:, but seriously :mad:

    Most of here are aware that DHS is now targeting veterans as being potential domestic terrorists. Be afraid fellow vets, they are looking at you and now we know they will come for you for FB comments!

  2. They've been aressting a lot of patriotic people lately. But that's one of the best way to let America collapse
     
  3. Our government is so dirty it's crazy
     
  4. What were the posts?
     
  5. Land of the free alright...
     
  6. I want to see what he actually posted. Depends what he said. His mom didn't really sound like she knew what she was talking about.

    Something to keep an eye on.
     
  7. I've been updating my OP, I posted one comment. He also posted a pic of the pentagon after 9/11 and said,

    And no matter what he said what was done to him is not at all right. If they came for him they're coming again for you, me, anyone, because now no one is safe to speak their mind, on the internet ironically enough.
     
  8. I just wanted to say thanks for bringing this to my attention, I have shared it on twitter and my friends have in turned shared it as well.

    I'll be doing my best to follow this situation as well...

    they watching us

    *closes blinds*
     
  10. Nah, just disconnect your webcam. It's way easier to spy on your from you PC than in front of your house. It's cost effective too.
     
  11. He has 420 friends lol.
     
  12. What he posted on fb is preety dumb. Yea let's talk about starting a revolution on fb. He should know the gov has no bounds and will do anything they want. If you wanna talk about that shit go to a empty bar not Facebook.
    I'm not saying he's the problem our gov is but he should know better. Since the ndaa passed they don't take this too lightly. I wonder what their goal is though. They got tons of the population fooled and brainwashed, all the money they need… whats next.

    Whether I agree with him or not, why did he post about having a gun that's bigger than a babies arm? He's making himself look like a nutjob. "Yes, hello my facebook friends. It's me again. I like comparing potentially dangerous weapons to babies limbs. I'm not a crazy person. I would like to start a revolution. Here's my adress. Please bring snacks. Tee hee."

    People these days.
     
  14. ^Ya what I thought too pretty much.

    Yeah I wondered about that. I mean how big is babies arm to compare it to a gun? Dudes compare their cocks to a babies arm but a gun the size of a babies arm is a small fucking gun, unless he's talking about handguns only. I wonder if he meant his biceps and has tickets to the gun show? Either way, still small :laughing:

    Update: The talk of a babies arm and another quote about sharpening an axe are actually song lyrics.

    You're embarrassing yourself..

    Edit: It seems some others share the opinion of 'xpixiex'. Do you even realize what this means? It really doesn't matter if he's insane or sane, or whether "he's making himself look like a nutjob." Obviously he's intelligent enough to write a coherent manifesto on his beliefs. But that's besides the point.

    This is a matter of freedom of speech, simply put. It's quite obvious, and I see people spout crazy shit all day everyday and none of them are being forcibly committed to a mental ward by the FBI.
     

  17. So we should just accept this government the way it is?
     

  18. I don't think xpiexiex was suggesting what they did to him was justified. Just that it does make you look a little nuts and doesn't help the "movement".

    You should be able to put whatever crazy stuff you want on your profile obviously :p
     
  19. Not to condone what happened to this person but people should reconsider calling for revolution while making arguments about gov't. That word has a specific meaning in relation to gov't.

    Revolution, noun: an overthrow or repudiation and the thorough replacement of an established government or political system by the people governed.

    I saw one line in his manifesto that would have sufficed. "Freedom is called a lot of things. But there is a true meaning. It means very simply that you have the right to do whatever you want as long as you are not infringing on the feedoms of other people."
