Russian force to provide "security" at US events

[BigK]

This was a headline on Drudge. Somebody tell me they're joking about the Russian soldiers on US soil providing security at the Super Bowl!

 

 

As part of a deal signed last week in Washington DC between the Russian Emergency Situations Ministry and FEMA, Russian officials will provide “security at mass events” in the United States, a scenario that won’t sit well with Americans wary of foreign assets operating on US soil.

Infowars alert!

[Joseg]

Consider the source first.. Just saying, I seriously doubt you will see Russian Police or Mil guard event on US soil, you might see Russian Security protecting Russian Nationals.. There's no way in hell that will flow..

I'm not familiar with Infowars. Were they supposed to issue me a tin-foil before I read the article?

Alex Jones. You need to wrap your entire body in tin foil.

Alex Jones. You need to wrap your entire body in tin foil.

 

But that isn't enough. After wrapping your body in tin foil you should technically wrap yourself in alternating layers of plastic wrap and more tin foil in order to create a Faraday like affect. Of course this won't work if you leave any gaps, so you must cover yourself completely.

that bad, huh?

Well, I'm not saying that he is always wrong, I think he may be right about some things. Maybe more than we would like to admit in some cases. Just be aware that he is pretty much the definition of tin foil. 

[mikegideon]

He's not always wrong. With that said, he's more the definition of batshit crazy.

... and a stopped clock is right twice per day, at least the analogs are...

..... in order to create a Faraday like affect.

 

Dang, had to look that one up. 

 

Michael Faraday was an English scientist who contributed to the fields of electromagnetism and electrochemistry. His main discoveries include those of electromagnetic induction, diamagnetism and electrolysis.

Making a Faraday cage is hot survivalist topic, to protect everything from wristwatch to vehicles from EMP, assuming that happens before the zombies. Or even concurrent with them.

If I read on Infowars that the sky was blue and the grass was green I'd step outside and confirm with 3 other sources before I'd repeat it to anyone.  Yes, they're that friggin nuts.

Yep. It's pretty hard to be the biggest douchebag in the room when Piers is there, but Alex pulled it off.

[knewcomb]

First time ive ever seen Piers not say a word.

You can build a faraday cage or you can throw your items in a metal trash can. They are supposed to work.

Any steel can

[Dolomite_supafly]

Yeah, you just need to make it "air tight" with aluminum foil.

 

Here is a pretty good video on it.

[mikegideon]

Aluminum doesn't work well for an electromagnetic field. Probably doesn't matter anyway. An EMP isn't going to be the devastating thing that some folks think.

[vontar]

First time ive ever seen Piers not say a word.

 Yes, but he invited Alex Jones because he knew Alex would sound like a nut case to anyone listening which in turn Piers figured would strengthen his argument that pro-gun people are nutz.

Not for nuthin', but here's another source:

Tin foil or not, this stuff is a bit scary, if POTUS cant get our troops to fire on us, he found some that will.

Given that we've been buying Rooskie arms and ammo to help support them for decades, the most cheerful word I can think of is "ironic."

speaking of tin foil hat theories...a guy I used to work with swears that the Reagan administration flooded the small arms market with ARs below the price of AKs to speed up the bankruptcy of the USSR that we started with the nuclear arms race.

wondering if anyone has ever heard of that theory before?
