  1. County employees, almost all of them, come on. These were very cheesy descriptions of these victims, does not sound real to me.

  2. Please notice the timing of this announcement.

    Right after “NoDisinfo” released their disinfo regarding all the victims being dummies, we have a list of name of real people, just to make the dummy theorists look like dummies themselves.

    I hope you didn’t send the dummy news to everyone you know, because they’ll probably never believe you again.

    Of course, we don’t know if these are real people, or if they’re really dead (they’re probably fake names, or people willing to play along), but I’m pretty certain we’re going to hear from people who allegedly knew them, and will insist that they were certainly not dummies.

    There’s a lot of BS out there (it’s intentionally endless), and it’s out there for the purpose of discrediting you in the eyes of people you’re trying to educate.

    Credibility is everything in a propaganda war, and if we’re not careful, we’ll be shot down by our own info-bullets.

  3. Witnesses are claiming 3 white muscular built men in military attire were the killers. So, who knows what happened. What did not happen is , a middle eastern couple did not murder 14 people. The only people making that claim is the government and their propaganda msm arm.

  4. The “victims” will be basking by the pool in Israel, while “distraught” family members collect millions in hush money, ripped off of the few working Americans still producing wealth.

  5. Shannon Johnson, 45, Los Angeles: His girlfriend, Mandy Pfizer, is a longtime member of the mayor’s crisis response team.

    Bennetta Bet-Badal, 46, Rialto: Government inspector. Refugee from Iran after US-Coup Shaw was cast out in the revolution. Age 46, time to retire with some fresh cash. Married to a police officer.

    Larry Kaufman, 42, Rialto: Gay Jew who staged Renaissance fair (crisis acting).

    Nicholas Thalasinos, 52, Colton: Another health inspector d Messianic Jew, who worked with shooting suspect.

  6. Saw an article with photos posted. They were all alive in those photos, however.

    Show me some bodies (and REAL blood), I’m not squeamish.

  7. “She was blooming from day one that I met her and, until last day, until yesterday I saw her and she went, she was just an angel,” Verdehyou said at a vigil.

    “I love hanging out with friends and I love my blooming career in public and environmental health,” Clayborn wrote on her Facebook page. “I am a creative individual with a fun outlook on life. I love my life.”—–Quote from “victim” Sierra Clayborn

    The real author of both these quotes should find a thesaurus.

    You’d have to be a “blooming” idiot if you can’t see the kosher connection in the names and backgrounds coupled with promoted fundraising pages in msm reporting.
