talk about the Silicon Valley 18 00:01:06,670 --> 00:01:04,129 sniper and it's update we actually 19 00:01:09,310 --> 00:01:06,680 talked about this bound what year and 20 00:01:12,789 --> 00:01:09,320 half go two years ago and the story was 21 00:01:15,850 --> 00:01:12,799 that there was apparently a sniper team 22 00:01:18,969 --> 00:01:15,860 that shot out this is in Silicon Valley 23 00:01:22,930 --> 00:01:18,979 they set up a sniper team and shot out 24 00:01:26,350 --> 00:01:22,940 the oil drums that I guess cooled or 25 00:01:29,320 --> 00:01:26,360 fueled the power stations causing power 26 00:01:32,020 --> 00:01:29,330 shutdown at a large for a large portion 27 00:01:36,580 --> 00:01:32,030 of Silicon Valley and they found shell 28 00:01:39,340 --> 00:01:36,590 casings and evidence of sniper activity 29 00:01:41,020 --> 00:01:39,350 but they really couldn't determine who 30 00:01:44,230 --> 00:01:41,030 it was this wasn't on the news but the 31 00:01:45,640 --> 00:01:44,240 FBI was investigating for a long time 32 00:01:49,060 --> 00:01:45,650 and this is one of those things this is 33 00:01:51,190 --> 00:01:49,070 an actual genuine terrorist event that 34 00:01:53,320 --> 00:01:51,200 could have impacted a lot of large 35 00:01:56,890 --> 00:01:53,330 portion of the of the Internet economy 36 00:01:58,929 --> 00:01:56,900 and there is no real mention of it they 37 00:02:00,880 --> 00:01:58,939 weren't hyping it like they do mass 38 00:02:03,160 --> 00:02:00,890 shootings they weren't hyping it like 39 00:02:05,620 --> 00:02:03,170 all these fake retards that the FBI 40 00:02:08,350 --> 00:02:05,630 ropes in the to be terrorists this is a 41 00:02:10,389 --> 00:02:08,360 real terrorist event and no mention of 42 00:02:13,110 --> 00:02:10,399 it but we did and we have a follow up 43 00:02:17,050 --> 00:02:13,120 and I think clown baby found this one 44 00:02:18,610 --> 00:02:17,060 clown baby take it away I just finished 45 00:02:20,440 --> 00:02:18,620 a clip but um 46 00:02:22,300 --> 00:02:20,450 I really didn't read that much but i 47 00:02:24,520 --> 00:02:22,310 believe the DHS came out said it was 48 00:02:26,470 --> 00:02:24,530 someone that was within that was him 49 00:02:28,509 --> 00:02:26,480 they said it was an inside job yeah 50 00:02:31,539 --> 00:02:28,519 that's what I read they they thought it 51 00:02:34,089 --> 00:02:31,549 was an inside job somebody that was 52 00:02:38,470 --> 00:02:34,099 working at that facility but all of 53 00:02:41,140 --> 00:02:38,480 Silicon Valley didn't yet they were to 54 00:02:43,420 --> 00:02:41,150 blame for the sniper shooting which I 55 00:02:45,130 --> 00:02:43,430 found to be interesting because it is 56 00:02:47,410 --> 00:02:45,140 this sounded like somebody who would 57 00:02:51,009 --> 00:02:47,420 call in a bomb threat to get off of work 58 00:02:52,270 --> 00:02:51,019 like I mean that is that like oh my god 59 00:02:53,559 --> 00:02:52,280 I
