Title: Camp over by Independence?
Post by: Sarah on December 08, 2009, 09:17:13 PM
There's a strange place that would look to be an internment camp over east of Independence.  Does anyone know what this place is?   Has anyone heard of it or seen it or know what it might be?

  Is it the juvenile boot camp over by Oswego? If it is they closed it last year.

No, he doesn't think that's what it is.  He (my husband) said this is a new facility put up in the last year or so?   I guess this place is about 5 or so miles east of Independence?  He said he knows where the boot camp is and this is a different place.

It's a place where frequent visitors of the Political Section of the Elk County Forum will soon be locked up.

I'd say write letters to Santa Claus and complain. Or maybe Tiger Woods. Or at least somebody at Fox News.

We gotta stop this thing!

Well, maybe not so bad --- depends on who they drag out of here.

I just called a good friend of mine that lives over there, and he said he has never even heard of any thing like that.  And besides, all of that land over there is private owned land, isn't it?

The reason I ask is that my husband had a locate ticket over there.  They were running new phone lines to it, but there was nothing on the ticket to say what the place was.  Generally his tickets always say what the place is.  Anyway, this was shortly after they put in the new city wide PA system there in Independence?  Anyway, the whole thing was a tad odd and we were curious.  He said he couldn't remember precisely where it was except that it was east of 169 highway.  Sort of back in the middle of nowhere.  No major roads nearby.  shrug

Teresa, stop thinking about my tush.

Oh ... and would you mind taking your name off your cell phone?  My wife has been going through my calls and it's creating problems for me. Huge. Quickly. Bye.

A lot of people believe that FEMA is building internment camps across the midwest.  There are differences as to whom they are actually intended to lock up.  Of course the government denies any such camps exist, but who knows.

I guess it wouldn't be as much fun if one of you looked on the tax records to see who owns it, or actually went and looked to see what it is.

My husband said next time he goes out there he's taking the camera.  :-)

I think it is true.  A friend of ours in Arkansas has a friend that drove past one and looked it up to see what it was.  It was indeed a FEMA camp with a crematorium.  So, at least one really does exist.

Sarah. Be of good cheer, my friend.

We live in a wonderful nation where goodness still abounds and none of your neighbors want to lock you up.

I'm sorry if my attempts at humor created anything but a few smiles.

That's where "they" are going to take the horses captured on public lands. After they butcher the animals and send the meat overseas, they'll cremate what's left.

Or maybe it's where they're going to lock up all the liberal democrats.   :angel: :angel: ;D

I have no idea what it might be.  I don't ever go east of 169.  However; if I ever get to travel during daylight, I'll take a gander that way.

Sarah, you might just be right, but I liked my story too. Perhaps they'll put the "detainees" there. Target practice?

Aargh!, Janet, you let me down.  How can I maintain the myth of your infallibility if you admit you don't know the answer?

See, Janet never goes over there, especially after dark. SHE KNOWS!   ;D   I really think it's where the Elk County publicist keeps the Creeper and only lets him out once in awhile. Since its a vegetarian, they incinerate the potato peelings carrot tops and such to heat water and keep it warm on really cold nights.

Okay, you guys, now I'm starting to think road trip.  I can't decide if I should try to scout the Arkansas camp or the Independence one first.

I just ran a search for FEMA Camps...............yikes.  I don't have time to read them because the place I am doing my internet at is closing for the holiday.  Anyway, if you want to spend Christmas with the creeps....google away and read it all.  Ha, ha.

Roma, I wouldn't scout any of them.  Believe me when I say that there are things afoot in this world you don't want to know about.

Highly doubtful diane.  Even if it was it would be no big deal.  Although a little "off" the Branch Davidians were a peaceful lot.
