Well 2 out of 3 isn't bad. I will leave it to you to figure out which two you got right.

Ok, so on this thread I am hoping for help from everyone. I'm pretty well versed on conspiracy theories and such, but a feel a lot of CTs lack evidence and are just speculation. A list of the former is what I want to start compiling. Once we can seperate the fact from fiction maybe a better picture of how bad things truly are in the US goverment will form.
If you think this is a terrible idea ignore it and move on with your life.

It's not a terrible idea. BUT, I have to say I came to a kind of chilling conclusion some time back that I think you should at least consider.
And that conclusion was that we have a very poor definition of words like "facts" and "evidence".
Hear me out. The thing about it is that the vast majority of the population does not see, hear, read or "know" anything that was not communicated to us by the people who own the MSM. As such, all TPTB have to do in order to own our minds is simply to own the MSM.
Unless you see it happen with your own eyes or someone you personally know very well saw it or unless you see a video that would be very hard to fake, you cannot be sure that ANYTHING is a fact simply because it came through the MSM. Just because all these people acknowledge it as such, that does not necessarily make it so.
But this kinda means we're pretty much screwed if we don't just automatically believe the media. They are the only people with any real credibility but their credibility only goes as far as you feel you can trust them. Unfortunately, I don't trust them.

1. NSA spying, Obama lying, Snowden flying.
-We know the NSA had access to our electronic communications on a massive scale. I won't eleborate on all the details, but this is big, big, overstep of power.
-Obama came and out and told the American people that no one was listening to the content of phone calls. This was a lie. A bold face slap in the face lie from our president.
