She says the prisoners from Coleman were going to be transferred to the federal prison in Marion County and TV was going to buy Coleman Prison. This sounds improbable to me because I can’t imagine why would the federal govt. sell their largest prison to TV. It’s not like the property is owned by the county or the state, but by the federal govt. who could care less about TV. But maybe the prison was for sale? I might be a blockhead, but I don’t see the problem with having the school across the street from the prison. Anyone know the facts of this situation?
Were you able to get any facts on those Jewish space lasers?
Who helped your friend to compile this wonderful conspiracy theory?

Thank you all for confirming that I’m not crazy, in this moment anyway. The idea was so nonsensical to me that I couldn’t believe my friend was repeating it. Soon as I have a chance I’m going to drive out by the new school just to see how close it actually is to the prison. Maybe I’ll see the new Costco/Trader Joe’s construction.

I have a 200-page expose about those Jewish space lasers. I collected data from cameras strategically placed in the microwave ovens of certain government officials.

Of course I'm keeping the document safe in an unmarked pizzeria basement, buried under 1000 pillows.

Do drive down. You will be amazed how much they are doing in the area, many homes already constructed

New roads almost completed. The schools are impressive and commercial buildings are going up.

I know what a laser is. But, how can you tell what space is Jewish?

We took a ride out that way the other day. We were so far away from BROWNWOOD that I expected to have to show a passport at some point on the way back. Out of nowhere we came upon the telltale signs of The Villages Construction. Just amazing. In keeping with my personal rule of not criticizing where anyone lives I will reserve any judgement but I will tell you it’s far far far away! These people are really something else. I guess developers, develop! Good for them and good for the people who get those nice homes at a reduced price!!!! Just amazing stuff!

LOL, a whole 6 mi to pioneer territory from Brownwood must seem like the other side of the world relative to the beautiful, mature legacy areas ;-)

Isn't it grand to live here?

The prison in Joliet outside of Chicago, was converted to condos. Anything can happen.

Coleman might be 6 miles but we were much further away than that. It was unbelievable that we ran I to our guys developing so far away from the area we are familiar with. No facts or mileage on where we were. Don’t have a clue but it was a hike. Beautiful ride.
