If you are unfamiliar with the Georgia Guidestones look it up. I’ll wait. Most people have heard about them -especially since they’ve been blown up.
They are, or were, perfect for any theory you wanted to propose. They were big, meant to last a long time, were inscribed in multiple languages and had a mysterious origin. To this day no one knows who paid to have them made and installed. It is important to remember they were put up in 1980 during the height of the cold war. A civilization ending nuclear war was pretty much expected.
I’ve known about them pretty much since they were installed. While mildly curious about seeing them it never happened. Mainly that’s because they were located in the middle of nowhere. There was no other reason for me to make the trip. I suppose Elberton GA just lost its only tourist attraction.
The stones were always a sort of conspiracy Rorschach test. You could interpret them to fit your pet theory of the day. I’ve heard arguments from the left that it was a right wing conspiracy. The right claims it’s a left wing project. Frankly, there’s a little in there for everyone. All you have to do is mix and match, stir, simmer and serve while hot. I’m not going to go into that.
However, and it’s always a however, there are some curious things. One thing that bugs me is that someone is willing to solve issues with explosives. This time it’s just a bunch of stones. Who knows what will get blown up next? The other curious thing is how quickly the rest of the monument was torn down. One would think a long in depth forensic investigation would be ongoing. Nope, it was quickly torn down with heavy equipment.
One more thing: there’s supposed to be a time capsule buried six feet under the stones. I wonder if that’s been dug up while all that equipment was on site?
Curious.

While nobody knows who put the stones up it's become pretty apparent recently that certain parties of the left have embraced at least ONE of it's tenets....the admonition to limit population to 500,000,000 people. The left is working hard to starve millions of us, poison millions of us with the "faux vax" and by shutting off energy sources freeze and bankrupt millions of us. As for the willingness to resort to violence in this case. Again recent history would indicate the left being involved. They have...through their BLM minions and others committed massive amounts of violence against average America(ns) over the past couple of years.
ReplyDeleteCould be, but according to the FBI most violent acts are right wing based. There were enough tenets on the stones for anyone to get upset. I couldn't agree with the vast majority of them -also, the devil is in the details.
DeleteSince the lefts epic meltdown from 2016 onwards destroying monuments and statues, burning, looting and rioting are now acceptable forms of protest. Unless, of course, the right do it. Then it's insurrection.....

Deleteanswers not found anywhere: who owned the land? who put them up? but your question of why no extensive forensics on the explosion tells something.
ReplyDeleteIndeed, but what?
