jonestown massacre death tape

the thing that makes it fucked up is the fact that people took their entire families down with them including children and babies. also, they died for no real reason other than accompanying their leader who was a coward to face prosecution for murdering a congressmen. 900 people. 900.

It was the largest loss of american civilian life in a non-natural disaster up until 9/11.

 

My dog is bugged out a little, his ears keep pinning back like he knows something is wrong

life has no real reason. when you break it down to eat, sleep, and creat offspring, life is pretty damn meaningless

 

Not necessarily. Here it is:

Many believe that this whole thing was a CIA operated experiment to test mind control over a mass of americans.

Scary.

 

Its strange, this is oddly close to a fundamental christian church service. Aside from the sacrificial part. But the brainwashing and groupthink is shockingly similar

 

turns out they weren't a religious commune at all. they were a socialist commune along the lines of the USSR, North Korea and such.

 

This is frustrating, this guy needs to be shot in the face. And yeah, I feel horrible for the children

 

He didn't drink the poison. You know what he did? He shot himself in the head after all his sheep were dead and gone.

 

Why didnt we hear that in the clip? That was a morbid situation.

Hmm. Im thirsty.

This photo is quite haunting to me. I guess because you know those children will most likely die for him.

 

I've heard it. another reason that people are dumb.

 

I love tapes like that

Unfortunately it is morning here but tonight when it is dark I'll make sure to listen to it

 

your one crazy kiwi man

 

That was actually really interesting imo. And the interviewer has the coolest second name.

 

DANGIT. i can't help it, jim jones' son is beautiful. it's amazing to see someone that pretty (and i don't mean sexy) come out of someone that evil. it's just WEIRD.

 

george stroumboulopoulos is a cool interviewer. Canadian TV is great! Liberal media, hilarious comedies, and cheesy dramas. You gotta love northern television!!

 

MSNBC is running the Jonestown documentary this weekend.

It seems so unreal
