Fair enough. Wish my girlfriend at the time had woken me up sooner so I'd been able to get out there before he hooked it up to the truck lol.

Thank you man.

This is unrelated to this particular situation, but I do have a question for you; is it normal for a tow truck operator to demand cash (wouldn't accept any other form of payment) of 250$ "because it's already hooked up to my truck?" And tell me if I didn't get it in 30 minutes he was going to drive off with my car and I'd have to pay more to get it out of the tow yard? I had that happen to me once because I accidentally parked in the wrong spot at an apartment complex I used to live at. I've always wondered if the tow truck operator was swindling me and pocketed the cash himself. He seemed like a shady little mother fucker.

I suppose it's probably safer not to ignore it. Worst case scenario I will just have to sign over the title to them. Thanks I will need it 🤣

Thanks for the advice. How lovely that the tow company is closed before I even get off work -_-

Thank you

It just doesn't make any sense. You don't need to shoot up four separate power stations to rob a store first of all, and the potential payout for it wouldn't be worth the risk. Power substation attacks were investigated by the feds and are considered domestic terrorism so they carry a significantly higher risk and way higher legal penalties.

Yeah, you got me there. I'm sure there's some kind of tactical reason behind it.

Amen brother.

They know. They just don't want to alarm the public. There is definitely some reason they're not saying that they know, but I guarantee they do. They're not stupid.

It hasn't even been a month since the attacks so how would that be possible for them to have been under surveillance for a month if it's a typo?

If it was coordinated at even dozens of places across the country, it would absolutely have grave implications. To be honest, I believe this is connected to the recent swath of fake active shooter calls that have been called in to schools all over the US and even in Washington. I think someone is testing armed police/SWAT response times. Maybe I'm just crazy but I believe there is truly something big going on here below the surface. I suspect it's probably white supremacist terrorists because they're almost always the culprits behind this type of stuff.

Agreed.

I'm not gonna say I believe it didn't happen or anything like that, obviously it did, but there's always been something really suspicious about that Las Vegas shooting. I'm not someone who ever believes in conspiracies about mass shootings but that one something just doesn't add up.

Do you still believe it after reading this?

>The two men were known to authorities, and had been under FBI surveillance for more than a month in late 2021 and early 2022, FBI special agent Mark Tucher said in an affidavit filed in federal court on Tuesday. The agent did not give reasons for that surveillance, but Tucher described himself in the affidavit as an expert in domestic terrorism assigned to the FBI Seattle division's joint terrorism task force.

Who knows. They've already basically admitted it's a lie.

Cute.

Thanks for this.

Clearly they aren't masterminds because they got caught easily.

>Stop trying to make the crime fit the MSM narrative.

Lol ok bud. Clearly the mainstream media narrative is that it was for a robbery, so I'm not really sure what you're on about.

Exactly. Never underestimate the destructive power of stupid people in large groups.

That's what they want you to think.

You're probably right about that. These guys are just the idiots who were stupid enough to agree to do it.

Fair enough. I do think you're probably right about the fact that they don't do anything without the "OK" from up top, and I'm really baffled the only guns they found were those sorry excuses. That's part of why I find it bizarre though. I just really don't see how doing this attack would serve any kind of left wing goals at all though.

I hope you're right. I'm sorry for your loss man. Hopefully my comment didn't come across as rude. I'm just frustrated that people don't take the threat these groups pose seriously.

Don't be disingenuous. Do you know anything about white supremacists? Well I do, and this type of thing is right out of their playbook. There's a famous fiction book that's been very popular with white supremacists for decades called The Turner Diaries and power substation attacks and terrorism are a huge part of how the characters in the book bring about a race war. Yes it is fiction, but they treat it like a manual. "Left wing" terrorism is extremely uncommon these days. Anyone who's paying attention can see that at least 90% of the time the far right fascist groups are the ones doing terrorism in this country.

Sure, there are a lot of white supremacists that do run drugs, but a lot of them actually hate that stuff because they think it's "hurting the master race" by getting white people addicted to drugs. Fuck both kinds, they're are equally bad and dangerous but that's just the way some of them think.
