COLORADO: Latest CEO Toys? Signs of the Times? Other? | |
| UncleMonkeySez Offer Upgrade  User ID: 728979  United States07/13/2011 06:45 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Being as how this is GLP, gotta feeling if you'll take the time to look at the pics, you'll have some food for thought. IMAGE ( [link to i1190.photobucket.com] ) These cellphone pics were taken recently from a public highway in the mountains of Colorado. The ranch in the pic is privately owned by a wealthy industrialist. Everything in the pics was visible from the public road as one passed by, and no trespassing or other crime was committed to take the pictures. When the workmen in the pics realized that a vehicle had stopped and photos were being taken they became obviously agitated so the photo-shoot was stopped and travel re-commenced. IMAGE ( [link to i1190.photobucket.com] ) IMAGE ( [link to i1190.photobucket.com] ) I thought perhaps GLP would be interested in viewing, speculating and discussing about such things. If so, there's a bit more to be said. If a Mod is able to put the pics actually onto this thread, and feels it worthwhile to do so, I'd be pleased if you did, thanks.

| UncleMonkeySez (OP) User ID: 728979 United States07/13/2011 06:51 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Yep, you definitely got the right forum of people to analyse this weird set up. Maybe a freedom fighter! Quoting: Anonymous Coward 1455291Inquiries with a local sheriff yielded: he knew the property owner was having such vehicles hauled in, and had been for a month already. The sheriff wasn't concerned, expressed no anxiety, and had no idea what it was about. Seemed disinterested in investigating. Other inquiries in the area yielded: the landowner had for some time been having old buildings hauled in by road. The local concensus was that these buildings were being placed in the extensive wilderness of the property, as they weren't visible from the highway. Too dumb to die. Too stupid to go insane. |

It's got to be very tough for any patriot group to try to prepare themselves in a military sense. I mean how do you keep this stuff from the public eye? Are they all going to go into hiding at a certain point or do they just suddenly attack the NWO powers swiftly when the time is right and just play coy until then? Then again maybe the guy just likes big guns, lol. |

| UncleMonkeySez (OP) User ID: 728979 United States07/13/2011 07:03 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | I don't know a lot about tanks, but isn't the one in the picture an antique? Quoting: Anonymous Coward 1466182It might well be. I suspect you know more about them than me. I've been told, though, that tanks sold to collectors have the barrel(s) filled with cement. If you download those pics and magnify them, you'll see that even the machine gun barrel in the hull of the tank at left is covered with a mothballing material, perhaps "protectapeel". That seems rather odd if the barrels are plugged with cement already, doesn't it? Regarding the possible antique status of a tank--doesn't really matter how old they are, if the bores not cemented, does it? Decommissioned tanks that are officially off the books but never were deactivated would be perfect to quietly pre-position in case of enemy attack or TEOTWAWKI.

Quoting: Anonymous Coward 1466329somebody is preparing for something.... lucy you got some splainin to do! I know nothing about tanks, so I couldn't say.

I know the markings are US. Someone who saw the pics thought it might be a Brit tank in US garb. The barrels in the vid still look a bit too close together to be the tank in the linked pics.

| UncleMonkeySez (OP) User ID: 728979 United States07/13/2011 07:36 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | I rather doubt its a patriot group. More likely something else. Quoting: UncleMonkeySezThe industrialist in question is a known associate of a certain Democratic senator. The plot thickens! The plot's thick in several directions, too. This area is near a dam and a high-mountain pass and magnificent ag-land. Places that might be worth fighting to hold. It's not far as the crow flies from Vail-Aspen. I knew a construction dude a few years ago who worked up in that area for a decade. Total hippie he was, a nice guy to have a cup of coffee with and chat in the mornings at the diner. He swore up hill and down that Vail-Aspen had tanks already in place to control or blow the passes in event of TEOTWAWKI. I always just figured "yeah, right, go light up again." Now I'm wondering if maybe he hadn't known what he was talking about. Too dumb to die. Too stupid to go insane. |

| UncleMonkeySez (OP) User ID: 728979 United States07/13/2011 07:46 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Maybe these tanks will be part of his security force when TSHTF? Quoting: Anonymous Coward 1465515All the wealthy can afford to spend big bucks on their security while the rest of us will be left fending off looters with our baseballs bats and glocks. Boy, that's the truth, isn't it? I suppose an AA tank would be ridiculously effective at crowd-control against baseball and Glock-wielding hordes or controlling a mountain pass with autos trying to come over it. It'd be horrendous.

in case any longwalker dudes or avian friends happen to be perusing the forum. Gotta feeling they'd have some thoughts on this.
