There were like what 9 more copy-cat warehouse fires? And when my friend was working for a company that did Tik-Tok moderation, he had mentioned how he had to censor news on like 3 other CEO's having either an attempt made, or actually gunned down. Should have drilled them for more answers at the time.

You're not wrong, we aren't see the whole picture online, there is a lot of data missing while the data they want us to see gets amplified.

Or as it has been put in the past: The Revolution will not be televised.

Its been going on for a few years now. There was someone who put some rounds in a substation to stop an event at a gay bar or some other equally silly reason, and while that was stupid and bad, they never found out who did it and quietly stopped talking about it.

Is that the one that happened up in Sacramento or something where the security camera caught the bullets hitting the chain link fence or are you referring to a different instance?

It was in North Carolina. Moore county I think.
