Or the Alex Jones is a downright liar post

I have been asked by a friend to post my own little “Alex Jones’ story on the web, just for the record. It’s not a very long story, so I’ll get right down to it.

Quite some time ago I used to listen to the Alex Jones show as a PodCast whilst driving around. What can I say, I didn’t listen for more than six months and found most of it to be incredulous nonsense, the sort of ranting diatribe you might expect from a show that only makes money from sensationalism. Much like all of the news these days.

Alex Jones is the sort of person who says he loves Latino people and then goes on to stereotype them as anti-American, murdering psychotics. I don’t like that.

However, my real problem with Mr Jones was a piece he did about a ‘talking police camera’ in Manchester, England. He read out the original article along with his usual Anglophobic comments that we are all too scared to fight oppression blah blah blah.

Well, I live near that talking camera and after less than a month of operation and the local Government had to admit it was useless. In an article published, again in the Manchester Evening News, over half those reprimanded simply ignored the voice in the box. And... frankly, what do you expect. It’s a piggin’ box! What’s it going to do, talk LOUDER TO YOU.

So, one up for freedom! I contacted Alex Jones’ show to spread the good news. Nada. I tried again, making sure it get a receipt of delivery and reading. This seemed to prompt Alex to read the original article again, only this time with a full 10 minute monologue on how everybody in England was a coward, to “yella” to stand up for their rights or those of our fellow man. Mainly because we lack a constitution.

Small point here;
a) We do HAVE a constitution. It’s just not a single document called the “constitution of the United Kingdom”.
b) The blue print for the US Constitution has been widely accepted as being Magna Carter. Signed in 1215 by King John of England at Runnymede.


My next tactic was to call the show. But despite “Foreign callers and decenters” being put to the front of the queue I was put on hold then dropped. Called again the next day, different name. This time I got to speak to somebody who worked at the show. Told him what I knew. Mild interest but would pass on the message. Needless to say, he never read out the latest peace on the downfall of the camera. Or the subsequent covering on the local news program which stated it was going to come down and be replaced by a voluntary police officer known as a Special Constable.

It should be noted that Alex also suggests that the recent creation and rise of the “Special Constable” was as a result of New World Order forces, with the “Special’ being akin to a member of the Stazi. Of course (as I emailed to him) the fact that Special Constables have been around since 1673 might put a little dampener on them being recently created.

But that’s the thing with facts, that get in the way of a good story.

The Alex Jones show is purely based upon the idea that the world is going to hell in a hand basket. Giving you the idea it’s likely to happen in the two to three hours it’s on.
