It seems to me, that, every time someone gets close to the truth, they die.

Yes, I believe George Carlin was killed for his outspoken beliefs.

Are you serious? Carlin did so much drugs in his life, it's possible that he only had a tiny bit of blood in his cocaine stream! This guy took horrible care of himself, and was not a young man at all at the time of his death.

Can't find a conspiracy in EVERYTHING, can you?

GEORGE CARLIN IS RESPECTED AND ADMIRED BECAUSE........

He was funny as hell. Thats it folks. He was a real funny guy, perfect comedian.

Was this guy the SAVIOR, like yall are posting here..........

Definately not. He may have had inspired moments during his routines, but lets not forget folks, that he was also an addict, and probably didnt have very many moments of actual "CLARITY."

Was this guys mold cut for something greater than being a comedian....

NO! Get over it people!

Dude.....He was so misguided. He thought we're owned by the elite, lol. That's just the American mentality created by the sudden rise in paranoia due to 9/11. You have to understand how Americans think when it it comes to freedom to really understand this police state bs.

There is no police state, no elite controlling you. America was pretty relaxed before 9/11 but soon after because of the terrorist attack they now have security beefed up beyond belief. This sudden rise in paranoid security includes military grade weapons for police and this idea that the government was behind it all. It creates a fear in the people that provokes thoughts of a police state - which is just 9/11 heightened security and a government inside job - which is just the same conspiracy they put in jfk. It has to be bigger then it is 'it must of been the government.....

I'd point you in the direction of these well made (and sometimes award winning) documentary films.
Without sounding too alarmist they quite clearly show the unprecedented 'rise to power' of multinational corporations;their plans for unequivocable commercial totalitarianism and their insidious,manipulative effect on mankind and the environment - I don't think George
was too far off the mark.

Some of my favourite Carlin quotes.
could go on all day, so I'll keep it short.

"The day after tomorrow is the third day of the rest of your life."

"I think it’s the duty of the comedian to find out where the line is drawn and cross it deliberately."

"I’m completely in favor of the separation of Church and State. My idea is that these two institutions screw us up enough on their own, so both of them together is certain death."

"Fighting for peace is like screwing for virginity."

"I have as much authority as the Pope, I just don't have as many people who believe it."

"If lawyers are disbarred and clergymen defrocked, doesn't it follow that electricians can be delighted, musicians denoted?"

I liked Carlin, but....

Like a lot Comedians they poke fun at politics and politicians
and People laugh. Which takes the edge off what Pollies are
actually doing.

I believe if comedians had not poked fun at Dubya on a daily
basis, people may have seen the serious side of Bush and probably
would not been re-elected.

Unless somebody has a better theory why Dubya was re-elected?

circus has left town"

Peace is NOT boredom!
Freedom DONT come with half a day slavery quota!

WAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAKE UP! (not for christ sake, thought

)

Its all programming!!! Its a parent-child cycle, with unquestioned
social condition passed on! You dont believe me? Check a children
eyes when you ask if they believe Santa Claus exist.... they accept it
as reality!!! If this is outrageous, and most certainly DOES NOT EXIST,
imagine the parents repeating over and over their religion and the
seriousness of going to church.... they accept it EVEN MORE!

I think G.C tried to play the exact opposite of certain views, sort of the anti-everything, to invoke thought processes, thought processes which tend to settle into a calm unchanging pattern if not disturbed. The world, like the universe, is all about change, otherwise it would be boring and lifeless.

I like his method, but that doesn't mean I agree with everything he said.
And not everyone relates their own personal methods to other people's methods(although, in this case, I've used this method) and not everyone who points out an issue in a person has experience with the issue they're pointing out. Although, if you spend enough time observing a group of people's behaviors and the factors involved in their behaviors, you'll have an easier time pointing out similarities. For example, his scruffy voice is similar to most people I've observed who smoked cigarettes their whole life.

You gotta love Carlin.

If he were alive today and posted on ATS, having his colorful and descriptive words censored, I'm sure would more than piss him off, which would lead to his circumvention of these automatic censors, then to a confrontation with the staff, and perhaps he'd be banned.

BUT, we will never know for sure.

The internet is a different beast all together, and depending on the forum and its "owners" what is or isn't acceptable is questionable.

Freedom under the control of the "owners" means forever having your balls yanked, just to be sure you always know they are still in control.

Some of us have the ability to analyze something said by the content of what was said. Others don't, and must judge the content by whether or not the person did drugs, or some other factor about their lifestyle.

i love Carlin's bit on "sun worship" - how he worships and prays to the sun because it's the only thing that he can count on being there every day...

...most, if not all, religion is based on sun worship - yes, Carlin knows a lot more than he appears to know!

Unfortunately "No" *sigh* I didn't ever get the chance. He has been to places of where I was or had been, but the fact that my family was continually moving about, and me helping my father with our trucking business, the times and places did not allow for that to happen. But, my father enjoyed his insights as much as me "RIP both of you guy's."

I did, however get to see Sam Kinison(SP?) and Andrew Dice Clay in Tulsa OK. It was shortly after we lost Kinison to a car accident that decapitated him, very funny show though, I got drunker than a sailor on shore leave!!

I always regret not seeing GC in the flesh, but the fact that that will never happen now is the reality of this event ever taking place.

(Off topic) Did anyone hear of some newspaper headlines leaking a "Iranian Covert operation by Obama"? It was on Fox this AM, but I can't find anything on this issue, they said they (Fox) were going to discuss it, but it was never talked about after the announcement of this event, "Very strange indeed."

I think the "i pray to joe pesci" bit from his religion rant in "you are all diseased" is genius... "he's a stand up guy".
He doesn't **** around...

Absolute comedy genius.

makes dawkins spaghetti monster seem silly in comparison.

I don't know what can be done. I can't even get my wife to listen to me..

She doesn't want to hear about it until it absolutely affects her. She also says that it depresses her...which i admit..it is all pretty damn depressing.

Many people are like this. They'd rather just let it all play out..keep doing the same old same old..watch their favorite tv shows and gossip about celebrity's newborns.
