was in 2004. And the reason is that it held a number of predictions about what was going to happen, and the predictions are close enough to reality that it's going to freak you out. It freaked me out just reading it because I didn't remember all the things I'd written. And as I read it I thought, "Oh jeez, its relevance just increased." So I might read it. I don't know. I have the digital rights t…
← Previous segment →'re seeing evidence that the Mars rover is not real. It's never been real. Clearly it's just another puppet show and one of the strings fell off the puppets and then got captured on camera. And now they're doing this scramble. You know, NASA's like, "God what are we going to do? They got our string." And so now they're trying to sell you that some of your finest Mars missions do involve string as part of an important part of the engineering.
So note to Elon Musk. Elon Musk, if you're building rockets to colonize Mars and you have no string, well maybe you should work on better materials because this string made it all the way to Mars. It's good stuff. So there's that story.
Are you noticing that there's a sort of a, oh let's say a gap or something missing in the headlines of some of the news but not all of it? Because I looked on Fox News and I saw this fairly, what I would consider pretty major story of importance, and then I looked for it in other news sources. I didn't see it. I didn't see it. Now see if you could come up with any kind of a theory why this story, which I believe is true, looks like a true story, why would it only be on Fox News?
Here's the story. There was some kind of a shooting incident not too long ago in an Indiana mall. And there was a fellow named Elisjsha Dicken who was in the restroom when it all started and he happened to be armed. So he was just a customer at the mall. He did not have military or police training but he was armed. I guess he had a concealed weapon. And he steps out of the restroom to find that there's a shooting in progress from a distance. I didn't hear what the distance was. From a distance this guy put eight out of ten shots into the shooter with a pistol from distance. I don't know what the distance was but you don't have to get too far away. Somebody said 40 or 50 yards. 50 yards? Are you serious? 40 yards? All right, trying to visualize that. 100 yards is a football field, right? So 40 yards of a 100-yard football field. Do you think you could shoot somebody eight out of ten times from 40 yards? Somebody says feet. I don't think it was feet. If it was feet he would have been outgunned, right? Because the guy had two rifles and stuff.

40 yards. All right, but it was a good distance. But here's the thing. Apparently this guy was tactically correct. Like he was getting bystanders behind him and he closed. He actually closed on the shooter. And here's the fun part. He neutralized the shooter with eight out of ten bullets into the body of the shooter in 15 seconds. It took him 15 seconds to leave the restroom, assess the risk prop…
