    Story has now made Glen Beck. Should be on Drudge soon.

    What a 91-Year-Old Man Has Been Keeping in His Basement Got Him a Visit From the FBI | Video | TheBlaze.com



    What is interesting is the tunnel tents in the front. Looks like something from the movie ET

    Gotta love the comments from TheBlaze.:laugh: Makes INGO look like a Sunday School picnic.:D

    Hey, that's a pretty nice shack for a 91 year old retired school teacher. Maybe the FBI should invite the IRS over to snoop around.:tinfoil:

    One of the great things about our government is their honesty and diligence in being sure that the wealth of individuals is protected....I rest easy in the knowledge that our Federal overlord will deal fairly with this subject.

    Put up your foil hats. The guy spent most of his life traveling and collecting, not always legally. Apparently according to an atf spokesmen on the news. The countries want their artifacts back.
    They are not saying he did wrong yet, but the people he bought from did.

    What is atf's angle in this? Antique tobacco? Sounds like a dog pile of alphabet agencies with bloated budgets.

    The guy had five PhDs, worked on the fourth atomic bomb while an enlisted soldier during WW2 and helped design the communication equipment on the MIR space station. Not just a high school teacher. I believe he owned his own company as well. That property has 700 acres.

    There have been a number of friends and family calling into the Garrison Show this morning talking about it.

    Soooooo, what you're sayin is he's building an atom bomb in his basement for the aliens he's in communication with to use on the great state of Indiana!:runaway:

    Of course, as a TRUE believer in the 2nd Amendment, I see nothing wrong with any of that and the Feds should suck it!:cool:

    So an old WWII hero who worked on the project that saved thousands of GI's lives in the war can get jacked up by the brownshirts because he likes to dig up old crap?

    No is safe...no one.

    In Trooper's second post, the link indicates that he did not contact the FBI. But at this point, who knows.

    Probably what happened was the old guy posted some "selfies" on Facebook wearing some old Indian ceremonial wear, and waving shrunken heads around, along with captions like "You think YOU got a collection?, well check this sh*t out b*tches!"

    Other than a couple of small mentions about his background in the atom bomb, there are other very interesting facts about this gentleman that is not being reported. He owned Wyman research, developed communication technology used by the Russians in the space station as well as Apollo program. Plus he is one of the most knowledgable people in the world of HAM radio technology. He had a number of 50 foot towers on his property. What happens if for some security reason the government decides to shutdown telephone and internet services. For the safety of it's citizens.....HAM becomes one of the few communications tools available to people. Especially a HAM operator that developed the communications system for the space station.

    The artifact news is a cover for what is actually happening here. Why all the unmarked black buses. image.jpg
