I’ve read his online last blog entry and that’s what convinced me.

I think they caught him using illegal means, and I think they fabricated evidence. The political pressure to catch him was insane and none of the evidence makes any sense.

If he was as smart as I assume he is they probably couldn’t get parallel construction of evidence to add up, so they had to go further. Or they couldn’t disclose the illegal methods used to find and track him.

The McDonald’s employee noticing him from the masked photos also is bizarre.

Ultimately the government needs to prove he did it, and the blog post alone is circumstantial.

Literally the first time a mcdicks employee gave a single flying fuck about anything was this? Sus.

The political pressure to catch him was insane

Specifically because Brian Thompson was a member of The Big Club.

I was never big on George Carlin the comedian. He was pretty average at being funny in my opinion. George Carlin the philosopher is pretty fucking great.

I agree; it took him a while to find his niche.
