OH MY GOD! You wo't believe what my 17 yo grandson just said about Hillary!

[napi21]

He asked his dad who he's going to vote for. He said he hadn't decided, but THEN said "I hope it's not Hillary because she wants to chip everybody!" His dad asked if that made any sense to him, and that's how all these vicious stories start. Some idiot says something and others repeat it without checking it out, or even asking themselves if it makes any senmse that someone running for president would ever say such a stupid thing.

I've heard a lot of arguments against Hillary, but this one is a FIRST!

[ibegurpard]

1. what does that even mean?

[winter is coming]

5. Embedded data chip? I've seen the idea tossed around as a way to always have

your medical data with you, but I don't recall that being something HRC has ever spoken about.

So many people carry smartphones that I have difficulty imagining why even the NSA would want to chip us. We're already carrying around friggin' beacons.

[napi21]

6. RFID chip.

You know...ark of the devil, permanent tracking device.

Obviously the reason this scares me so much is that he will be able to vote in the General Election in 2016!

[tymorial]

2. I don't get it.

Chip?

[TexasProgresive]

4. An RFID tag

Radio Frequency Identification Device. You know the mark of the beast without which you can't buy anything. put on your

11. Hillary Rodham Clinton

See- "Rodham" and "Clinton" both have 6 letters in them. She spells her first name with 2 "Ls" to throw us off

[cherokeeprogressive]

21. No silly she spells her name that way because that's how Sir Edmund spells it.

You know, Sir Edmund Hillary, the first guy to climb Everest. She's named after him in honor of the feat.

[awoke_in_2003]

22. I was trying to sound like a right wing looney

I had humor fail, I guess.

[cherokeeprogressive]

23. T'was I who failed...

Because that's what I was trying to do as well LOL.

[awoke_in_2003]

29. Ahh

One bad thing about forums- you can't catch inflection or other cues

[SheilaT]

32. He didn't climb Mt Everest until 1953. Hillary was born in 1947.

I rather doubt she was named after him, unless her parents were incredibly prescient.

[Juicy_Bellows]

3. I too am confused by chip. Nt.

[Lancero]

8. Another evil government(tm) program that Conservatives have been warning about for years.

A RW hoax that's being pushed against Hillary? Color me NOT surprised.

It's a variant of this - https://obamacarechip.com/

[Juicy_Bellows]

15. Wow. Thanks.

That's some outer space type wackery there.

[NV Whino]

7. Fargo comes to mind.

[frylock]

13. thanks..

I just spit IPA all over my phone.

[Fred Sanders]

9. Well that clinches it, Clinton will obviously be fictional toast now!

[rurallib]

10. did you ask where he heard or read, whatever, that?

really curious.

[napi21]

20. Yes I asked him. All he knew was that he heard it on TV.

He lives with his Mom & her current husband during the week and spends the weekends with his Dad. Because he plays on 2 hockey teams on the weekends they stay with us (his grandparents) on the weekends during hockey season because it's a lot closer to the rink. My guess is that his Mom had FOX on and that's where he heard it. Both his Dad & I told him "When you hear something that doesn't sound logical to you, no matter WHERE you hear it, you need to check for some kind of proof or debunking before you just believe it.

His Mom has always been a gullible Pub fool and I'm sure she still is. I'm doing the best I can to prevent her from creating another Pub idiot!

[rurallib]

24. so many people believe that there is some kind of fact checking done before

a story or a statement is carried on TV. So if you hear something on TV it has a seal of truth so to speak.

[RobertEarl]

12. They do chip animals

But really, I kinda sorta doubt Hill would think chipping people is a good idea. That's science and when you think about it a good way to control those who don't, well you know....

[postatomic]

14. You won't believe what my Dog said about Hillary

I would tell you but I don't speak Dog.

[hootinholler]

16. Wasn't that Gore's wife?

They called her chipper or something?

[sufrommich]

17. Did you tell him to stop listening to Alex Jones? nt

[IVoteDFL]

18. I wonder where people get this shit from

When MN flooded up north a couple of acquaintances were trying to convince me that PBO was taking advantage of the situation or that he even controls the weather and caused it on purpose so he could set up FEMA camps and shove a chip in everyone.

[One of the 99]

19. It's what I call a 'FAUX News Fact'

Meaning it is BS.

[hedgehog]

25. Sorry to say this, but your grandson has been running around with the wrong crowd!

[napi21]

34. Well, we do ive in Ga. I do ,y best to get him to THINK and check instead of just

believing what he hears, but I only see him on weekends...the righties wee him every day...all day.

[hedgehog]

35. I hope you know I was joking. Keep up the good work on weekends!

[Vinca]

26. Wasn't that one used against Obama, too? LOL.

You've got to wonder who starts this stuff.

[MuseRider]

27. It's always going to be something but

that is one from way out there!

[tularetom]

28. There's enough valid reasons to oppose her without making up Twilight Zone shit

Then again, if somebody wants to believe that stuff...

[Gidney N Cloyd]

30. Well, I for one think chipping everybody is a _great_ idea.

Who's with me?

[Eleanors38]

31. Wants to send in the California Highway Patrol? Out of jurisdiction.

[Motown_Johnny]

33. The same Hillary who does not know what wiping a server means?

Seems unlikely.
