Most of us know on a grand scale things are not as they seem. JFK was a huge conspiracy, SIrhan Sirhan was under mind control mk-ultra and drugged by some woman in a black polka dot dress, James Earl Jones did not act alone if he in fact he even pulled the trigger ect. I could go on and on. But I am curious if anybody knows any great conspiracies in the Lehigh Valley Political-Social scene.

I have always had one fundamental problem with conspiracy theories. They seem to go against human nature. People have too much to gain by spilling their guts.

I agree, the only conspiracies that hold water for me, are ones that involve very few people (like 2 or 3) anything much larger and there is going to be a leak somewhere. The ones that really get me are the government conspiracies that supposedly involve thousands of people. So how exactly would that work with something as corrupt, inept, and backstabbing as our government? LOL!

I am trying to keep it local. You always are welcome to research my friends like Jesse Ventura and Alex Jones on your own. But lets talk local conspiracies.

Occam's Razor. The explanation with the fewest assumptions is usually best until others can fulfill the burden of proof.

Locally I know of none, although there certainly are plenty of urban legends in the Lehigh Valley.
