Ed Rob Menard's FOTL Claims

[solzhenitsyn]

I agree with that, though much time was spent showing how those in OTHER COUNTRIES have been violent.

Know what I did not see? Any lawyer stating on the record that our perspective was wrong. No elected officials saying THEY have the right to govern without individual consent. The only cop who had the balls to speak, hid their face.

You can look at what was there, and what was not.
What was not there was any lawyer disputing our perspective.

I guess the CBC does not have lawyers eh?

;d

Its funny. In a way, I agree with you. I would have liked to have seen that (perhaps a law professor or something explicitly and unequivocally warning people that it is all nonsense) as well. However, I imagine that it was simply deemed unnecessary to spend a lot of time addressing/denying things which are so obviously untrue? Who knows.

Very powerful, that imagination thing...

But seriously, unnecessary? We are talking about law, and they could not find a lawyer to speak?

Keep imagining, and use your imagination to justify the fact that they did not interview EVEN ONE lawyer....

Likely the people here will ignore that fact...

Well, yeah. For the same reason that we don't accept "we don't get thousands of prominent engineers rebutting every single one of our claims" as proof that 9/11 was an inside job, or the fact that biologists don't spend every moment debating young-Earth creationists on the subject of evolution as proof that the YECs are right.

What you're arguing simply isn't worth their time.

Why don't you get thousands of lawyers and judges to agree with you instead? Because with just one lawyer saying FMOLT is nonsense, you'll just say he been bought and he is merely one - now wouldn't you?

Why don't you get a few thousand on your side.........we'll wait

Just got round to watching it...

Your feet must be so painful by now Menard.

ETA: Can I apply for this job Rob?

Society Soiree

New Servers, Plus Rob Needs An Assistant

Hello people.

The admins apologise for lack of timely updates lately, but many things are happening.

First, at any moment the WFS and all her servers are about to be moved to dedicated servers... the first of MANY... yes, our traffic was melting chips in Amsterdamn, so we got our own machine so no one can complain.

Second, we are about to announce something really revolutionary and we need a volunteer.

This volunteer must be fluid in English and have a taste for interpretation with precision, must have tenacity, endless energy and a high tolerance for various social abuses and insults, etc. A media-aware freeman with time on his or her hands, in short.

Your job, should you decide to accept it, will be to operate as Rob's press secretary. You will follow him around and repost at least a precis of whatever he says in a variety of websites and social media locations. You will be the official Rob Menard echo-chamber. You will be Uhura to his Captain Kirk, that's as best I can put it, but the short skirt is optional. You will have at your disposal the WFS art dept and whatever else you need to do the job, unless we can't afford it.

This is probably thankless, but you will go down in WFS history, and depending on how fast sanity overtakes the world, might look good on your resume.

No kidding, this is a high-energy, social position and you MUST be comfortable with Wordpress, Twitter, etc, etc.

To apply, send a message to

freemanmenard@gmail.com (rob menard)



You MUST include the subject exactly like this

MEDIA-MASTER POSITION

and you must be or become a member of the World Freeman Society.



Cheers,

The Night Weasel

 

[jargon buster]

But the good news is that (according to some here,) the FMOTL movement is 'dead in the water', right?

Its dead in the water for you mate.
Every cop in Canada will be looking to make a name for himself by locking you up now.
Tread extra carefully from now on Mr Menard and watch the booze intake.

Menard has been exposed to a wider audience and as such his snake oil will be harder to sell.

Great news, well done D'rok.

 

[jargon buster]

and you must be or become a member of the World Freeman Society.

So, who wants a job with no salary and a start up fee of $250????

You couldnt make it up.

It would be positively adorable that Rob is trying to spin up his internet e-fame like this is it weren't for the fact that his efame is based entirely on factless theories and bankrupting people dumb enough to take his advice.

 

[Mojo]

Thank you! And none of you here seem to question the power of editing eh? lol

Unfortunately for them, we taped the whole interview, not just the edited parts you watched and will put together a piece showing the entire interview, and will compare it to what was broadcast.

I look forward to your successful complaint against the programme.

Aww... do you feel a like you have been mislead and tricked by the programme makers?

Sit down Rob and just let that feeling wash over you a few times, now, thats exactly the same feeling Lance, Terry, Josh and many others have felt after listening to your advice.

Not a nice feeling is it?

PS. I wonder if its Karma come a knocking?

PPS. Rob, why dont you get your team of crack legal sharks on the case and sue the station for misrepresentation?

 

[Cocana The Second]

Let's just say that didn't go so well for Menard.

I'm happy to say that Adrienne used a great deal of the material I sent her, including the document that she used to confront Menard.

Yes, I had extensive communication with her producer about all of this, and I am bragging about it.

Well done D'rok. I'm really looking forward to checking out that link later.

 

[Toke]

Well done D'rok. I'm really looking forward to checking out that link later.

It will be 3 weeks before I am home an able to see it.

 

[BobHaulk]

I thought you came across well rob. I especially like the care in the community jumper you had on. Where you playing for the sympathy vote?
Does it make you angry rob? they made out that the American freemen where a bit dangerous and you Canadian freemen were just lightweights, Coke Zero to their Coca Cola if you will.
Good effort though and i hope a few new marks....er sorry customers come your way.

That depends. Are you "fluid" in English?

This volunteer must be fluid in English and have a taste for interpretation with precision, must have tenacity, endless energy and a high tolerance for various social abuses and insults, etc. A media-aware freeman with time on his or her hands, in short.

I like to think I'm merely solid in English, so I guess I wouldn't qualify.

Of course, precision is not the same as accuracy.

This reminds me of David Brent in 'The Office'.

 

[Horatius]

With all the hot air, I'd have expected them to require someone gaseous.

 

[D'rok]

The thought of following Menard around every day and hanging on his every word makes me nauseous.

How dare CBC portray nonsense as nonsense.
