unsinkable Posted October 26, 2018 Share Posted October 26, 2018 The van covered with stickers and with its dashboard filled with what looked like garbage... I would have parked faaaaaaaar away from it if I ever came across it in a parking lot. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TravelingChris Posted October 26, 2018 Share Posted October 26, 2018 Yes, and he has a lengthy criminal history too including a previous threat to bomb his utility company back in early 2000's. Seems like a real mental case. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Crosshairs on people and CNN Sucks and everything else posted on every window? I guess laying low wasn't on his agenda, because you can't get much more out than that van. I'll be honest, if this were a movie I'd have rolled my eye at how unrealistic it seems. I'll be interested to hear more about him. This whole thing has been beyond weird. the cops were aware of him . . . he'd been arrested for making previous bomb threats. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TravelingChris Posted October 26, 2018 Share Posted October 26, 2018 Apparently, he has claimed to be a Seminole at some time and also Filipino at others. Has done bodybuilding.

Bluegoat Posted October 26, 2018 Share Posted October 26, 2018 Well, he obviously wasn't very good at bombing people. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd say that's why I live in the country but I think we also attract our fair share of what some may regard as his philosophical ilk out this way, so you can't really say that. I don't know, when I lived in/near DC and the suburbs there was a lot of stuff like that van driving around that I saw. There was a van like that in my neighborhood in suburban Northern VA...actually it was more cardboard with scrawling and less shiny stickers. There were people outside the White House all the time with obscure causes that I didn't understand or thought were..strange...but they were protesters and it was DC. Now I live far, far from DC and there are people with wacky-looking spray painted billboards of all political persuasions around (in fact I'm pretty sure there is some kind of Hatfield-McCoy thing going on in one spot on the highway where they spray paint over each other's billboards). While it is wack-a-doo, it doesn't really scare me at all. It's not really nightmare-ish to me even though I wouldn't normally approach someone driving around with a van like that for a friendly chat. But being around political zealots of stripes in DC inured me to thinking it was something to be afraid of. I mean, you can look back and say, "Of course it was that guy," but not all people who do stuff like that are going to act out of violence. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, maybe it's a DC thing, but the whole van covered in "off" political stuff is not an unknown sight. We have a new conspiracy guy in our neighborhood. Homeless. Twenty odd signs covering our little public plaza most days. Pizzagate, government implants style stuff. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TravelingChris Posted October 27, 2018 Share Posted October 27, 2018 And he had all kind of crimes too. Like 2 x for anabolic steroids (not corticosteroids like I have to take, but ones to build muscles and can lead to roid rage), domestic violence, theft, other type of drugs- I believe It was meth, etc. But I certainly understand all those piping in about people with signs, and decorated vehicles. I have seen these people and vehicles in even small towns sometimes. Some are harmless, some aren't. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm hoping I don't have my boardie details mixed up- but didn't you/don't you have the drug dealers down the road mixed in on the same street with the new crazy money trying to renovate a historic house into a monstrosity? And now conspiracy guy too! Lol. Yeah. That's totally my 'hood. The neighbors dialed back and didn't do the pop-up on their house though. Whew. Lots of others in my neighborhood have though. The conspiracy guy seems harmless. But hilariously, my yoga teacher and I were talking about "the new conspiracy guy" only to realize later that we were discussing totally different new conspiracy guys. Oy. But forget the conspiracy guys. This guy is by far my favorite neighborhood "character." He's really nice too. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chiguirre Posted October 27, 2018 Share Posted October 27, 2018 There's a name for the sticker covered vans: Vanifesto!!! 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Faith-manor Posted October 27, 2018 Share Posted October 27, 2018 I would never honk at or approach that van, but it wouldn't be abnormal to see something like that here. We have a lot of really "off" political conspiracists, and the local Flat Earther's pick up truck is insanely decorated. The guy two blocks over has neo nazi as well as confederate stuff all over his house and car, flies the nazi flag on his porch, and openly carries. No one approaches him. I can't wait to leave this area! I hope this guy is never paroled. Clearly he should not be walking amongst us. But, I also think it is just a tad crazy in 2018 to NOT have a definition of domestic terrorism encoded in the law under which people can be charged. That's crazy.
