Heh well said.
Jaz is an intelligent man so I find it slightly - what's the word -
mystifying? - that
he believes this Fema Camp nonsense. The fact is, if you go on
YouTube/Google/whatever,
as Jaz urges, you can swiftly discover how the whole thing is a crock of
shit. 
The Fema Camp conspiracy theory is one of the more interesting ones in that,
as 
with the fake moon landing conspiracy, the effect seems to be that the
bigger and more
rediculous the lie is, the more people seem willing to believe it.
Of course, when the conspiracy started they were Clinton death camps, then
Bush death
camps, now they are Obama death camps. Funny how all these administrations
agreed on
one thing - we really need lots of death camps!
And yet no matter how secret these places are meant to be, people can just
drive around, 
film them, put up videos on YouTube and get away with it. Spooky.

The video I posted earlier

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0P-hvPJPTi4

is well known, its 17 years old and shows an old train-repair facility which
is apparently in
the process of being turned into a new Auschwitz. Listen to the commentary -
along the lines of 
"This is a big building, it could be used to process prisoners" - and try to
keep a straight face.
The video was shot by this woman

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Linda_Thompson_(attorney)

who is, surprise surprise, a bit unhinged. She was disowned by the US
militia movement 
because they thought she was too extreme (she planned an armed march on
Washington
to put senators on trial for treason).

Glenn Beck, of all people, actually debunked the whole thing here - guess
what? It actually
is a train-repair facility.

Popular Mechanics also have their own page on it

http://www.popularmechanics.com/technology/military/news/4312850

(see point 3 for the train-repair facility)

This features the infamous photo supposed to be a US death/internment camp.
It is actually
a prison camp... in North Korea. If more people got worked up about real
death camps instead
of imaginary ones, the world might be a better place.

Well, it goes on and on, its all out there if you want to read up on it.
Sorry but this particular
facet of Jaz's paranoia gets on my frigging nerves and I'm pissed off that
he's clogging up valuable
album space with boring songs about it. If it had been a great song, I
wouldn't have minded so much.
