Bigfoot DNA

[LTC8K6]

Ben Schneider, a 1996 IUS alumnus, asked about how the Bigfoot freezer hoax affected studies where real evidence had been found. Meldrum said it made a mockery of their efforts.

When asked about his personal beliefs, he said if he had doubts, his career would have been different.

“Of course I’m personally convinced,” he said. “I think what were looking at is many branches of hominids. Rather than assuming they all went extinct some persistent branches exist today in remote areas.”

Meldrum has interesting thoughts...wonder what he'll make of these DNA reports?

Also, I didn't realize Meldrum had met Patterson.

OK, which one of you Skoftics is behind the cyber attack that's shut down the BFF?

 

[Correa Neto]

We used an EMP weapon shot from one of our stealth fighters. Nasty stuff. Can even erase DVDs. Ask Historian.

 

[LTC8K6]

The BFF was getting too close...

 

[The Shrike]

Well we have to fix it. Mulder hasn't insulted me in a few hours now, and I'm sliding toward withdrawal.

 

[Correa Neto]

Didn't you get the memo?

Some of our agents work udercover, pretending to be one of their crowd. They impersonate wild loons to discredit bigfoot research, so our sponsors can keep going with their loggin and mining stuff, the public remains ignorant and the secrets about the species which could debunk evolution is kept hidden.

Don't be too tough on him, OK?

Why, just last night I was out howling back at footers...in the deep dark woods...at least 15 feet from the highway. I was carrying 2 bags of concrete and wearing alderfeet too...you shoulda' been there.

The back pain gave the howls authenticity...

Paulides again and more explicitly says the "Bigfoot" DNA is human and Native American.

I think a few of the footers may begin to wise up. But cult behavior theory would predict that the majority will find a way to buy into the new information; controversy may occur but breakaway groups will probably not form, since, in the past, there has not been any requirement of strict adherence to a single dogma.

I found this comment rather prescient:

"Comment by R.W. Ridley on August 20, 2011 9:04 pm

Yeah, as I indicated in the post, I think it’s weeks away as opposed to months.

I think the entire BF community is about to pop. If this turns out to be nothing, Prozac sales will go through the roof."

"Bigfoot" DNA is human and Native American.

That means that Bigfoot has human rights but is also subject to local and Federal laws. Bigfoot can actually be arrested for trespassing, illegal squatting/homesteading, harassment, public disturbances, etc.

Maybe one indication of acceptance of the "Paulides theory" is that Bigfooters stop calling them Bigfoot or Sasquatch and convert to calling them "people". This one just happens to be covered in hair from head to toe and might have really big feet. The names Bigfoot and Sasquatch may now be racist like "slant-eyes" and "redskins". You just have to start calling them Native Americans.

If you see one on your land you can call the police and say that a Native American is trespassing and you want an investigation with arrest. Wood knocking and loud vocalizations are disturbing the peace. Throwing stones is now illegal for them to do. It isn't Bigfoot committing these illegal acts; it's simply a person breaking the law.

Paulides is guessing as much as anyone else.

He's likely trying to bolster sales of his books which espouse the bigfoot-as-lost-tribe theory.

How was this alleged DNA obtained?

 

[LTC8K6]

Yes, how did they get DNA/bones/body parts from a human/native American?

Did they shoot these humans/native Americans?

That's what I wanna know.

 

[ScannerHead]

go to the bff and read all about it. it's called something about "the sierra kills" or shootings. some guy claims he shot 2 and cut part of a thigh out of the big one and some other stuff.

So then why doesn't he just produce the entire bodies, instead of just some bull ****?

Exactly.

If they do come out and say they have Bigfoot DNA, and offer a study for analysis, the entire scientific community will issue a "Put up or shut up" notice. They'll have to come up with more than just some tiny samples.

If you shot a creature with human/nA DNA, didn't you commit murder?

You're reading wayyy to much into this. You know as well as I do there is no body. This is all part of the game to generate interest and dollars, and good ole legend fun.

You are actually reading way too much into my posts. I know what I'm doing.
