Not my area. But I find it interesting how The "Mothman" and all the tragedy that happened in that Point Pleasant area.

I live in Ravenna OH near a National Guard training facility. It was built as a WWII bombs and ammunitions testing and storage facility and is about 21,000 acres of land. In 1966 there was an 86 mile police chase with a UFO that went all through ravenna and all the way into PA after that with sitings and descriptions from multiple officers and civilians who spotted it throughout the day. It seemed as though at many points in the chase the UFO would stop and wait for them to catch up just to keep going with them. The Air Force scrambled jets but they were too fast as the UFO slowed down to stay near the cars. Officials later redacted the fact that jets were scrambled although there are papers to prove as much.

Kek I just picture someone piloting a prototype intentionally screwing with the police.

Didn't Iron Man pull that move exactly in his first movie?

I just moved out of a hill town that supposedly a satanic cult in the 70s was killing children with DCF assistance. The whole damn town was Masonic as shit.

DCF?

Dept of Children and Families.

The collusion of our local government, with I believe Goldman Sachs, to make us pay for the new Raider stadium here in Las Vegas.

What's the goal of this?

Make money for rich people off the backs of the taxpayers

This may be a dumb question, but doesn't Goldman already have all of that money? What would they gain from this... a massive asset in a new stadium? Serious questions.

Why do the Rothschilds still do more shitty things to make more money when they already own half the world? For some people the world is never enough.

dang.

I just want a house and a good life for my family and I'm happy.

This blows my mind that people want this much

Shoot, my wife got me a new pair of shoes the other day that I have wanted for a long time, and I about lost my mind haha.

Hopefully this will change for the better in our lifetimes.

Great question! Goldman does have the money (in the form of their customers money, they are a back) but instead of using their customers money to generate returns they are using taxpayers money to generate returns. That way when (not if) the construction costs end up being more than first estimated the taxpayers money will once again be used to cover the overages.

It's just another blatant example of the US/NV government and laws being used as a vehicle to generate corporate profits

Beautiful answer. Thank you.

The law allowing this tax very specifically states that we are responsible for a specific dollar amount ($750M) and the taxpayer money cannot exceed that. So hopefully, if it goes over, BoA and Davis will actually foot the bill.

Still not sure why they don't just privately fund this, if it's gonna be as amazing of an "investment" as they say it is.

That's it. I didn't say it was an especially interesting conspiracy. But how they had handled this with secret board meetings, and unelected officials making the decisions with our tax money, all who are in the casino industry's pockets. It is shady af. I don't have anything specific to point anyone at, but if you look into a few of the articles about this transaction it will be easy to see why us natives are pissed.

Jesus Christ, fuck The Trump Administration Goldman Sachs

It is no longer GS. They backed it with Adelson. It's now BoA iirc

Thanks, I always like to at least know whose dick it is.

I'm in bucks County and we have a lot of bizarre history involving the Rosicrucian order. In Upper Black Eddy, the order built 3 large pyramids that the public isn't allowed near. I did find a video on YouTube of someone managed to walk up to one without being chased off, and what's inside is even stranger. Just outside of Bucks County is the cave of Kelpius, located in Roxborough. Kelpius is thought to be the first Rosicrucian to come to America, and led a sect of something like 40 monk Templars. The order was based around Kelpius' strange machines and magical practices.

We also have 2 buried treasure legends in Bucks County, but that's not exactly a conspiracy.

Oh, and Ringing Rocks, which is a large field of anomalous stones, that literally ring like a bell when hit. The conspiracy part is that it's always been a ufo Hotspot, dating back to colonial times.

Got a link to the video of the pyramids?

https://youtu.be/LIliXRz2jL4 You see some of the surrounding structures in this one

https://youtu.be/TFNW-3FUmFM This one gets inside one.

What?? This is crazy! Have you ever been to any of the sites?

I've been to ringing rocks, didn't know about the conspiracy at the time. If you live in the area it's right across 78 in New Jersey. Each rock has a different tone if you hit it with a hammer. Also there is a cool waterfall on the opposite side of the rocks

I've been to the pyramids, but we were chased off by a very aggressive SUV. I was at ringing rocks as a kid, but would like to go back someday to check it out.

Also from Bucks County PA... Never heard of any of this!! Any links for more info?

https://youtu.be/TFNW-3FUmFM

That's the video i saw where the guy gets inside

The Ringing Rocks don't "ring" after you move them from their original resting place, too. Very strange.

When I bought my house off a 90 year old couple, their family couldn't be bothered to clean up their belongings other than what they thought was valuable. I found books, diagrams, panphlets, sheet music for chants, and a whole slew of other documents for the rosecrucian order. Apparently they were members.

Bucks County also had a major UFO flap back in the 90's where dozens of ufo sightings occurred some including pictures and physical evidence. A UFO dropped glowing glitter on a tree and when the leaves were analyzed they found that they had been hit with some kind of radiation that mutated the leaves.

Huh? Lived here my whole life, all through the 90s. Don't recall any of that.

I may have mixed up my Bucks Countieses....

Lol, Pennsylvania?

Yup. That's it. Haha. Sorry, the show was on in the background and I only caught the Bucks County UFO Flap.

I remember Bucks being a hot spot for a little while. My favorite UFO story from nearby was a UFO with tentacles dangling out from under it, seen hovering over what's now the Buffalo Wild Wings. vid in link. http://theparanormalpastor.blogspot.com/2008/07/ufo-flap-over-bucks-county-pennsylvania.html

Your friendly local water authority is always a good place to start for a conspiracy theory. The history of the acquisition of water sources and rights is an interesting one to follow, and it breaks down a little differently no matter where you live.

This is so true. I work in a consulting firm for water and waste water treatment plants. Every city has its own crazy conspiracy behind it.

We have the Department of Water and Power here in LA and Mulholland was shady af. Stole water rights from farmers in Central California resulting in farmers dynamiting the aqueducts. They built an unsafe dam that collapsed and killed over a thousand people. Whole bunch of stuff on that dude but they have a complete monopoly here.

That's what I was thinking it had to be playing.

I suggest you all go to your city's sub (or any city you are interested in) and ask there. I did and got pretty cool answers.

https://np.reddit.com/r/milwaukee/comments/521d9m/what_is_your_favorite_milwaukee_related/

Concord NC, there is the Stonewall Jackson school for boys. it still open today, but its much smaller. The older buildings are really cool ruins, def worth a google, but anyway. The school operated as a place for trouble makers and kids that basically were thrown aside. The conspiracy that I have found about it was that some kids were taken from there and sold across the US/World into a pedo sex ring, this was from the 40-70s IIRC, there are some small message boards and groups on FB about it.

Kingston, Ontario. Place is fucky. Lots of money get thrown around and the trains are running but no one is buying anything. A bunch of experimental power generators came online in the area in the past 5 years with loads of capacity. New factories are popping up outside of town and there's a very active military base.

There was also a big building fire a while back I think was a ritual.

I live in the midwest. In my state, we have this urban legend called Haunchyville. It's supposedly a secret village of migets or gnomes. Tiny houses, tiny chairs, & tiny beds, the whole village miniaturized. I've went to search for it multiple times with no success. I know many people who claim to have seen the village & looked inside of windows & saw a miniature version of everything, but no one has ever provided evidence for its existence. It's pretty weird, almost everyone knows what Haunchyville is here, but only handful truly claim to have seen it firsthand. Just thought I'd share for anyone who cares.

This is in Muskego, a friend and I are going to check it out this weekend.

A fellow cheese head! Make sure to bring a camera in case you happen to stubble upon it, lol.

Awesome, you should make a thread after you check it out.

There's a place where I live that's kinda like this, don't think everything is miniaturized but I know it's a community that's exclusive to midgets.. some of my buddies have gone there and said the people there are very hostile towards visitors.. especially teenagers who think a community of midgets is funny to trespass on aha

The stories vary from person to person. I've heard from some people that it's just community living for midgets. One guy I know said he was exploring it late at night, when all of a sudden he was hit by a rock. He said they came out of the bushes screaming & chased him away. We may be talking about the same place.

The one I'm referring to is in California, somewhere by Long Beach I think

there are several little person communities like that. dwarfism is genetic, so i guess these groups end up building up their area. They're often referred to disparagingly as midgetville. teenagers go in to check out the urban legend, and then the little people chase them out and throw rocks.

This is a pretty common urban legend for many states. Here's some more info about this in New Jersey

Not really a conspiracy, just crooked as fuck city leaders where I'm at. Constantly doing shady shit with money. I believe almost every department head is colluding with our shitty city manager who is thankfully leaving in August.

I live near the NY state capitol. I'm not sure about conspiracy theories but a lot of shady things happen when you mix powerful NYC folks with a small capitol city such as Albany. There is A LOT of corruption, particularly with union driven construction projects, payoffs for favors, collusion, etc... Couple that with gobs of money that comes near here for the horse racing industry and you've got a party.

Should make note that because of the gambling interest in the area and it's close proximity to NYC there was and probably still is heavy mob ties.

There was a quadruple homicide near a local mall on busy road not that long ago. You'd think that the first reported quadruple homicide within a municipality which has an average violent crime rate 87% below national average would garner some steadfast crime investigation. No, unsolved. Word around the campfire is that it was some asian mob angry over a debt.

Albany is a funny place.

I do know out west multiple mining towns and factory based towns, the mayor owned the local stores AND the news paper so he'd make more money off of the citizens and they didn't kmow better.

Hmmm... there was a hamburger/hotdog place that was supposed to open up in a vacant building... turns out the guy in charge was a heroin trafficker and went to jail before renovations were complete... that was over a year ago, but his Wifi signal is still coming out of the building... which is now the home to an Italian place that certainly doesn't get enough business to stay open for long... and installed a bunch of really teched out surveillance and security. I'm guessing it a front for heroin trafficking.

And something weird is going on at a decommissioned Navy airbase... I think the Navy dumped a bunch of hazardous materials in the woods decades ago which are contaminating the groundwater. I ventured out there a few summers ago and ran into a bunch of out of state guys that were with the EPA... and they had no fuckin' sense of humor at all... I dunno if all EPA guys are like that, but it was really strange and they had some pre-printed explanation pamphlet to hand me in case some weirdo like me found them in the woods in the middle of nowhere.

Said there were there to check out an old dump site that didn't pose any threats because it was just fuses and spent blasting caps out there... no danger of detonation... but I saw an old banged up ammo can they had on a table... there were several sets of fences set up in addition to the old rickety ones that were always there so I couldn't get any closer... but when I looked at the area on Google Maps there was a huge perfectly circular area of dead foliage out there... nothing growing there like decades later when everything else was covered in trees.

Screenshot?

Wow that is very interesting. How close to this area did you meet the workers?

Pretty close... this must be an older picture cause they had graded a little driveway/parking area in the dirt connected to the road that you see in the lower left hand corner... I wish I still had the little pamphlet, it was pretty shoddily made... like on a regular color printer.

I made a throwaway because it involves a family member and my main account is known.

My local government is corrupt severely, I'm talking sex, drugs, and using their power to their advantage against the law. I know this because someone in my family worked in the court house and other government buildings. The DA and some of the higher up people are cocaine users and have hotel sex parties, like cocaine fueled orgy sex parties. My family member is a female and was solicited for sex by the DA on many occasions, which she accepted and I'm pretty sure is part of the reason she got in so deep (not just the DA either, several other officials). Another is she was going to law school to become a lawyer and I think they saw something in her that could help them. She's seen shit I could only describe as something I've seen in movies. We're also pretty sure the DA is collaborating with drug leaders to lock up their little guys as scapegoats so they stay in business and the law gets their busts. Let's just say she told me Christmas parties include some odd guests, and drug sweeps happen 3 months after it every year. Always 30 people taken in, sometimes 32 or 33. I almost always know someone in the line-up every year (it's a pretty small historical town compared to others), and it's like they find the dumbest people they can to run drugs for them which makes sense.

Get this. She recently left law school because she decided it wasn't for her and she wanted to continue her current job within the courthouse. Well she no longer has her job, and the DA or any other of her "friends" won't so much as answer a text, and if they do it's literally one word. She's been entirely cut out of the circle.

I love about an hour and a half away from the Illuminati Stones in Georgia http://www.rense.com/general16/georgiaguidestones.htm

You mean the guide stones? I've always wanted to check them out, but how often does "Hey wanna go to Elberton?" Come up in casual conversation? I used to live next to the the Virgin Mary lady, that was a weird time!

Rofl! I've run into the same issue. Doesn't help that there's literally nothing else to do around there so driving out there just to look at some rocks and then drive back doesn't seem appealing to most people, lol!

We could make a conspiracy roadtrip. Where exactly is the "love shack"? & what the hell is that huge stadium in athens for? I've been to the morgue in Elberton, but it's not that intresting.

I'm going to be honest, I have no idea what the love shack is! The stadium is the UGA football stadium. What can I say, we take our sports seriously in the south lol

That's just what Kirby wants you to think...& the love shack is the mythical place the B-52's told us about "you see a faded sign on the side of the road. It says 15 miles to the loooove shack"

Well played, sir. Well played.

I just DuckDuckGo-ed "love shack Georgia" (that doesn't have quite the same ring as "Googled it", does it?) and turns out there's a sex toy shop in Norcross named The Love Shack. Not sure that's worth your trip though lol!

That's not the one. The song states "we're heading down the Atlanta hwy" that is 78, which doesn't go thru Norcross.

Well damn. Worth a try.

Girl in Kansas City was pulled over at 3am and goes missing. A few months later she was found dead in the Missouri river. Many locals believe the officer is the main suspect.

(original article) - http://fox4kc.com/2017/01/30/woman-tells-kc-police-that-man-impersonating-officer-tried-to-pull-her-over-twice-on-71-highway/

(conspiracy) - https://nationalcrimebeatnews.com/2017/03/12/killer-cop-prime-suspect-in-toni-andersons-disappearance/

Came here to say this. It's really odd that police claim they did sonar on the river, found nothing, and then an independent organization came in to do sonar and found her

"We investigated ourselves and found nothing wrong."

^If the Pentagon/CIA gets audited

Grew up in KC and have to say that case was odd from the beginning

In my province, one of the largest companies here owns most of the province's popular newspapers and several TV stations. A lot of their oil is Saudi as well.

Nb?

Yep. The armpit of the maritimes. I say that, but I do love it here.

I miss it there. Nothing beats the pizza and beer at the pump house in Moncton. I don't miss the Irving overlords though.

Cheers man!

You're definitely not missing out on much. It's unfortunate to see the stranglehold on the economy here. The amount of pollution in the Irving cities is allegedly akin to a couple packs of cigarettes a day. I had a teacher in high school who taught us about the Irving family in a critical manner, including their ties to Saudi Arabia. He also had people who visited Saudi Arabia in to the class to speak about the civil rights atrocities.

I like to think it was so we as fresh, young minds would put it together and effect change as he was a teacher who taught how to think not what to think, but I was the only counter culturist in the class so I think I was the only one to pick up on it. It was a rather affluent community that the school was located but I was bussed in from the surrounding countryside to attend that high school.

Kudos on picking up that it was NB though. Hope you're doing better wherever you're at.

Everyplace has its skeletons in the closet. Nb is just a little more messed up than most. On the plus side you have a beautiful province with wonderful people. I miss the highways in nb, northwestern Ontario lacks divided highway, although we do have access to a much better craft beer market. Hardly a trade off though.

The residents of Cobb county GA will pay over 65% of the new braves stadium & the city counsel has restricted "new" business owners from direct profit from the stadium in favor of established business & corperations. This was agreed to 3-4 years ago w/ the initial agreement & just released last week, less than 20 days from opening night.

The police are told to watch the poor communities and only pull them over. I walk around in town all the time and the cars they pull over are always the beat up Honda's. I live downtown where there is a lot of wrongdoings but get pulled over for questions for what I'm up to for the night or if I've seen anyone they are looking for when I'm just walking to the store. The way they approach is clearly not a sign for my safety, they want to know what I'm up to. It's extremely irritating. I'm just living with my siblings from a middle class family and it's half the reason I hate living on my own. I solely want to move because of their harassment.

Same here. Police were infamously told to stay out of rich neighborhoods and not to arrest the rich kids for drugs. All while pushing for more drug raids in poor neighborhoods.

Its quite common in my home town for people in council houses to illegally sublet them out per room to desperate families. For example, there was one case of a woman who had been allocated a council house but she actually lived abroad and she'd rented out each room to family members and friends for an extortionate amount of money. She was caught out and they pulled around 25 people out of a tiny 2 bed house. That one actually did make local papers, so everybody knew about it, but its common to find busts like this happening with immigration showing up in parts of town in the middle of the night to "flush out" houses. I guess it does count as a conspiracy because there are rumours that the local authorities know that this kind of thing happens all the time but they sit on it, as long as the "Tenants" keep themselves to themselves and they pay their rent on time they are happy to ignore it. The only really step in if there's a health and safety problem or the house is unfit for living. Also related, There is an old branch of Woolworths which is now a cash & carry and rumours around town is that there have been people living there since it became a cash and carry and its been one for 8 years now.

I might be plotting against myself

You can never tell whose voices belong to who when you have so many of them following you throughout the day

That is concerning and I would recommend talking to a doctor.

Local to me and others but definitely has larger affects: the Denver Airport.

The secret tunnels story is fake. I'm a contractor for several airports handling the badge handling systems in Denver. Those "tunnels" were created for an unproven baggage system developed by BAE that failed to properly sort and move the bags when it was installed in the "tunnels". The system was ripped out and replaced by a more conventional system which left a few empty "tunnels" under the main TSA checkpoint area.

Now for that demonic horse out front...yeah that thing is creepy and cursed

The murals are pretty rad too. Always fun to study.

When I was a plumber's apprentice in college, my company got several jobs at DIA. The only thing that's crazy about the underground is how easy it is to get lost... Our lunch breaks were usually an hour and a half because we'd get lost going to and from our various runs of steam pipe.

I live in South Carolina. There is no end to the conspiracies in local government.

http://www.wistv.com/category/239168/lexington-county-sheriff-james-metts-indicted-by-feds

In Maricopa County, AZ, the superior court judges were in collusion with Sherrif Joe arpaio to rule certain ways on Dui appeals cases in order to put more people away. Local PD allows video evidence to "expire" meanwhile while defense judges are requesting it every week. They then say they never got the requests and they cannot provide the evidence as videos were automatically deleted by the program. This was deemed unconstitutional in the Youngblood vs Arizona case that went up to the US Supreme Court, yet the judges will still convict. Upon appealing the unconstitutional condition, the appeals courts decide not to hear the case and slap you with extra time in tent city because "the appeals court has longer minimum sentences"

Source: my dui case. Served 8 extra days in tent city for showing the Maricopa County superior court that the local PD deleted evidence that would have proven my innocence.

Sorry, still a little salty.

No need to apologize. Your story deserves to be heard, too.

That guy is super corrupt. Meeting him made my skin crawl after all the terrible things he had done that were shared with me. Ugh:

The usual bullshit with councils and back hander contracts to friends and family etc.

Aslo every now and then the remains of ritualistic killings are found on the moors.

Skinwalker Ranch in Utah is fun. I don't really think anything is legit with it, but it's an interesting place to research.

Ottawa War Memorial / Parliament Shooter The Cancellation of the CF-105 Arrow

The city I grew up in was home to several fabrication plants that did steel pressing and casting, and frequently had cold war-era government contracts. Most of those factories are now shut down.

One factory abuts a residential area that has been deemed a "cancer cluster", as the rate of cancer in that neighborhood is far higher than the mean. I never though much of it, until I worked on an amateur film crew that used one of the abandoned buildings (without permission) as a location. We all had sunburns on our feet and ankles the next day.

'Squatch, bro.

PA uses the township form of local government, which means that every 4 houses is a different township complete with its own government and police. It is having your own factory for making corruption.

There's an abandoned underground RAF base by a small village near where I live. In the 80s it was used by a satanic cult and the tunnels were covered in pornographic images. In 2010, a teenager went missing in the area and he supposedly researched the base just before. He was never found and the entrances to the tunnels below have been sealed.

Me and a few friends visited it last summer. The buildings above ground are still accessible, though they're pretty much empty.

Not really a conspiracy but it's still a very weird and interesting series of events. The base is called RAF Bempton for anyone interested in learning more. There's videos on YouTube/ pictures on the web of people exploring the tunnels before they were sealed. The 'artwork' is seriously fucked up.

My old town in BC Canada, if you have the time watch all 7 parts.

Local concert venue and it's general manager are a big part of my hometowns drug ring. It's like an open secret almost. They mostly pedal coke in large quantities and occasionally other stims. Every one in management positions is a drug peddler.

It's fucking annoying if you don't do drugs, and have had addiction issues in the past. My own demons are behind me, but working in that city is impossible because of it. I currently live in LA, but MN has a fuckin problem.

Living in Kelowna, British Columbia, Canada. Not a lot from what I've heard except for many reported UFO abductions and sightings. I've seen one here myself as well. Apparently Kelowna is really fucky in a lot of cases but I don't know what about. If anyone cares to provide more please reply

College-aged kids keep "falling into" and found dead in the Mississippi/Minnesota/St. Croix/nearby rivers around MN and western WI late at night & during bar close. There have been so many instances that I'm convinced it's not a coincidence. These bars don't sit on a pier (like ocean-side areas, for instance). I've been around said areas and heavily intoxicated at times. Doesn't add up.

New England too, it's very weird

Hmm, things off the top of my head. Because I can, and because r/Con is 80% CTR astroturf. Some are true, some are not. Names and people are changed to protect the guilty.

1. Mayor ran for office to clear his debts to the Odessian mafia. During his run for office he had Russia prostitutes (they could not speak any english, just showed up to cheer in Cowboy hats) act as his election crew. He lasted 1 term, during which all the major infrastructure contracts were broken with local SME's and given to a large conglomerate run out of Cypress. This is a city of (x)mm people so his activity was not a small event. On his last day in office he changed the by-laws and gave himself 2 million acres of land right beside an Olympic Park where the IOC previously zoned it as "natural habitat" during the Olympics. 2 days after leaving office he sold half a city park to Russian banked developers who are now facing lawsuits for building McMansions on the side of a escarpment, of which 7 mansions have fallen into the river. His son is now running for Federal office.

2. During the 1980's the Chief of Police was the related to the local chapter head of the Hells Angels. Hells Angels were the largest property tax payers in the city as well as the second largest charity providers (Shriner days were hilarious), so everyone was cool with this. Police actively told people they would not enforce certain sectors of down-town lest they be fired for "internal affairs". When the Koreans and Italians started to move in, gang wars started and the City had to "clean up" the biker problem. The biker gangs are still reliable informants and friends to the city to this day.

3. The largest sex brothel is being run out of a condo complex owned by the Consulate of China's local Foreign Affairs Officer. You can find some of the Staffers "Friends" on the local Backpage. A far cry from the old 007 movies.

4. A famous gold mining fraud (now a movie) was a front for the Italian mafia, run out of Vancouver. To this day the 3 brokerages are known fronts for Italian/French dark money. One guy faked his death and now lives in Hong Kong as a consultant. He rolled on the mob backed institutional investors and was allowed to "vanish". He still pays his dues to the local geology society.

5. Two of the richest men in the city met their wives when they were sex workers. The pimp is now a judge on the court bench.

6. The local state police force (yes the entire Detective and Gang Crime Units) was arrested for moonlighting to rich oligarchs and using police databases for personal side-jobs.

7. A Triad branch was caught trying to bribe a sitting SEC commissioner with 4 hockey bags full of fresh (as in uncut from the US Treasury) $100 bills to allow them to continue building condo's in a major city. The sting operation was more interested in how they got uncut bills out of the USA.

8. A local native village was a Illuminati sacrificial site from 1830 to 1960, local state police identified half the missing children from native schools likely ended up in this bone pit. Every year a Crown Royal (various countries) just happens to visit the site and stay there for 2 or 3 days around the Summer Solace.

9. When the Canadian Government ordered the Avro program destroyed the KGB paid local Russian/Estonian agents to smuggle parts out which became the basis of the MiG-23/25. Every 4 or 14 years a new part is "donated" to the local aerospace museum from somebody who wants to remain anon. Rumor has it there is a 80% complete Avro Aero disassembled somewhere in State.

   1. The first leader of the Conservative movement in this State came from a family of notorious cattle rustlers. His family was a main shipper for the Chicago mob during prohibition. He keeps a tommy gun on his ranch as a prop for the story. To this day, their family is involved in "odd-lot" cattle sales to Montana.

10. Before he was arrested, Al Capone purchased large (large estate tracts) of land outside of Moose Jaw in Canada. There are stories going back to 1970 of local scavengers finding old US mint coins along the old riverbed. Many believe Capone hid his stash amid old freehold farmsteads.

11. The KGB would send agents as Orthodox priests to scout and recruit in local villages. When state police got wise they would vanish, leaving behind their kit in the Parish who in turn would donate them to the local CIA/Counter-intelligence branches. Many Orthodox churches survived as "honey pots" long after their children moved away.

12. In the late 1990's Federal government started targeting local crime prevention. As a part of this there was a required violent crime quota which required each year less capital offenses and homeless people to be documented then the previous year. After serious debate, the national council of Mayors decided to draw lots amid themselves and agreed to send all their homeless and violent criminals to 1 or 2 major cities. Those city mayors agreed to "quarterback" civic programs so long as the other mayors endorsed him. Subsequently, 3 cities saw over the 1990 to 2001 period a 200% increase in homeless cases and a spike in violent crime arrests, well above the national average. When 1 mayor went whistleblower he said "we got the idea from the Americans".

13. The local oligarch hangouts were all financed on city land, gifted to the clubs in exchange for bailouts of the city coffers, which were paid for by using off the books slush funds.

14. The largest payer of highway tolls is the Drug Runners going into the USA. Its easier to pay a "tip" and the toll then be pulled over for cargo inspection.

15. A former State Governor saw that an Aspestos Class Action Lawsuit was going to win based on Judge & public opinion so They fired the DA and appointed their Husband to be the DA, despite having no experience in this field as a JD. The case favored the State and the Govenor & the SO pocked the money. They have yet to be prosecuted to this day and are hiding out of country.

16. A sitting member of government is the largest slum land lord and crystal meth dealer in the state. When his town burned down, over $100 million in cash went up in smoke, that is why he went back to check on his city that day with a trailer hitched to his truck. Nice guy, but he's literally Walter White.

17. More then 1 former Head of State was on the Chinese or KGB payroll. It was not even a secret, you just knew your report was going to be photocopied and sent back to Beijing. It got so bad in the 1970's the CIA and US Government just stopped asking this NATO ally for insight until the entire government was turned over.

18. NHL and NBA games are not fixed per-se, but like Wrestling or UFC the fights are scheduled for maximum "story arc" potential. Every season the league reviews the salary cap, which teams are best to present in a Sports "package" of highlight clips to ESPN/FOX and narratives are crafted. Every major sports star since Wayne Gretzky has been stage managed. No player will ever admit they took a "dive" to allow a star forward to score a Hat-Trick, but no player will also waive their NHLPA pension to whistleblow the system. Its the same in the NBA.

19. Nearly every environmental foundation in this country is a money laundering scheme for a major offshore family or country. Ask your favorite institute to present their NGO financial statements and you will figure it out. No auditor, no disclosed bank accounts, no disclosed consultant contracts. But plenty of left-wing government Directors on their Board and plenty of paid protestors with $100/sign photo-ops.

Dothan, AL

This has been in this sub before, but I believe quite a few people in the area believe these girls had dirt on local police and paid for it.

I am kind of surprised no one has talked about Lynchburg VA and how the university owns the whole town. Or Utah with the religious cult's that only hire there own.

Random ass small town on the east coast. We have our urban legends of course, but they are not that interesting.

Our local government is wholly incompetent and or corrupt. Rumor has it that A LOT of money has disappeared in the last 10 years.

The free masons pretty much run shit around here. There are a boat load of rumors and myths about them. I've always heard that, you don't mess with a free mason or you might find a rattle snake in your mailbox.

Am I saying free masons will put a rattlesnake in your mail box? Absolutely not, but rattlesnakes man. You gotta watch out. They could crawl into just about anything.

-theory that a local chinese fusion restaurant was actually a brothel to explain the overly attractive asian waitresses in our 99% white town. -theory that several state legislators have severe alcohol dependency but the police are complicit in covering up drunk driving incidents

My local town was host to Britain's biggest serial killer.....

The official total he was charged with was 15, they think it could be 250.

The people around here think it's way....way more.

Conspiracy I don't know.......fucked up I do know.

My area is famous for high profile killers, it's weird because it's quite a nice place

I believe tire dealers are dropping screws and nails in the surrounding neighborhoods to drum up business.

I believe gas stations are lobbying the city to put in more cement center dividers so you have to drive all the way to the end of the block to turn around, thus burning more fuel.

I always wondered if tire/windshield businesses did this in smaller towns... pretty much guaranteed cash if ya got some bills to pay.

Our old mayor lives on the first road off the main strip. In order to take the shortest route to his house, you would head east on the road, but you would hit stop signs every intersection. Well after his election, lo and behold, the stop signs now face north/south directions! Smooth sailing home, definite corruption for personal gain.

Could've sworn this post had a comment thread on a weirdness in China that beards can't be long because of islamic radicals. Found this:

Said there were there to check out an old dump site that didn't pose any threats because it was just fuses and spent blasting caps out there... no danger of detonation... but I saw an old banged up ammo can they had on a table... there were several sets of fences set up in addition to the old rickety ones that were always there so I couldn't get any closer... but when I looked at the area on Google Maps there was a huge perfectly circular area of dead foliage out there... nothing growing there like decades later when everything else was covered in trees.

Rofl! I've run into the same issue. Doesn't help that there's literally nothing else to do around there so driving out there just to look at some rocks and then drive back doesn't seem appealing to most people, lol!

Well played, sir. Well played.

I just DuckDuckGo-ed "love shack Georgia" (that doesn't have quite the same ring as "Googled it", does it?) and turns out there's a sex toy shop in Norcross named The Love Shack. Not sure that's worth your trip though lol!

Same here. Police were infamously told to stay out of rich neighborhoods and not to arrest the rich kids for drugs. All while pushing for more drug raids in poor neighborhoods.

DCF?
