I just watched a feature on Jim Bishop "Castle Builder" from Colorado on Discovery Channel. I found an interveiw of him on youtube. I thought I'd share...

yikes
At least he's not wearing a sandwich board on a street corner.
And I wish he'd speak up, he kinda hard to hear, LOL.
More power to him. I guess he's no crazier than those that think Obama deserved the Nobel Peace Prize.

treason...sheriff...retaining all rights and remedies...
Who knows what he's talking about here?
Isn't this related to the "UCC1 sovereignty" debate?
He got them to back down with something that sure sounds similar!

Jim Bishop should go viral
as a mason I have the highest respect for Jim anybody who works outside and creates and accomplishes real goals can relate . The message of liberty should be spoken about knowledgeably and passionate to convey its purpose . If Ron Paul would have spoken this way during the primaries he would have outshined all the slime that surrounded him .Please dont say they would not have taken him serious because newsflash they didn't . Our freedoms and sovereignty are and have been at stake and your not going to win them back with wishy washy talk . Jim could not literally have moved mountains if he did not walk and talk with fire . I teach all my customers a little accurate history and when I speak of our cause I dont mince words . People of the corporate world , take my advise watch office space and learn a trade you cant be outsourced and and will walk right with liberty . Please speak passionately it is crunch time.
LOL

Is this what we want to represent our movement?
Look, I'd shake this guy's hand in a heart beat. But let's be realistic: stuff like this makes us look like kooks, and makes it very hard for us to wake up the ignorant/indifferent masses.
It's called cognitive dissonance. I suggest everyone learn that concept.

disagree
I am not endorsing Jim Bishop to be the figurehead of the liberty movement, we all know who that is (not beck ha); but guilt by association holds no water with me. so he's "kooky", he is also a human being who has obviously had a stressful life. The reason i dug this up is because a lot of my buddies (ignorant/ indifferent) in construction/ carpentry are amazed by his story, and inspired... you pick and choose what you want to spread based on how you think it will be recieved. a kook (crank) is someone who believes something which most others believe to be false... so are we all, as individuals, kooks to some degree? if there never were any kooks throughout history the truths and innovations would not have arisen.

But being crazy doesn't help us! I mean, good for him... (...Golf Clap...)

I disagree
He said Ron Paul was the only honest man in congress.
I agree with him.
Jim Bishop Endorsed Ron Paul!

100% certified patriot

I went through the castle
I went through the castle around 1998. It is a fantastic sight to experience. A castle and probably the only castle not built by slaves. The day I was there Jim was probably welding for a living. To bad 37 years of fighting the beast has made him so livid. I guess Moses got pretty livid hanging out with God alone. Makes me realize Dr Paul walks with Jesus everyday.
My wife and I visited his castle this summer...
...Unfortunately Jim was away from home at the time so we didn't get to meet him, but we got to explore his castle anyhow. People from all walks of life were stopping by to see the castle.
Some parts were still under construction, the globe at the top was scariest part.
He is like an Old Testament prophet...
Like God put him on earth just to spite the "powers that be", and to be a testimony of achievement...
He's Bumpworthy!
Just watched this again and thought I'd dig it up and mention that many of my friends have been awoken by this video (the one with john elway and roger staubach...). quite popular among people who actually know what manual labor is.

I watched
nearly every video on Google about this guy and I have to say I agree with him on every point, just not the way he goes about making them.
The ranting is scary.
The DP is proof that the grassroots support for Ron Paul and his peaceful message of individual liberty is large, real, and not going away!
Not sure if anybody else covered this but ...
this is completely scripted.
Q-cards and everything.
Watch how he responds to questions before they are even finished.
WAHOR!!

Wrong, Rhino. I know the man
Wrong, Rhino. I know the man personally and I've been there when he cuts loose. He is 100% authentic and speaks from his very patriotic heart.
Have you got proof Rhino?
.
You really think so???
I've watched a number of his videos and they didn't seem scripted to me. Maybe I'm just not good at spotting that sort of thing. It seems to me more like he has spoken to so many people about these things, he can almost tell what their counter-argument is going to be just from the first few words they spit out, and has his responses ready.
My own father was just like this guy. After a while he would
say the same thing over and over. It could drive us all mad. But his heart was in the right place. I feel I understand this man. Its just that he is so exasperated by all the trauma he has experienced by government goons.
WOW
That was one of the wildest, strangest, coolest,most interesting videos, I've seen on DP.
I thought he was gonna crush that smirky cameraman for a second.
"ARE YOU TRYING TO TAKE ME TO TASK!!!!!"
I think the cameraman almost shite himself. I bet for a second he thought he was fixing to get buried in the back yard, of the castle.
Just look at that guys back muscles, and hands. He could punch you in the face and you'd feel like you got hit by a rock. You can just tell his body has been engaged in hard, hard , labor, by the way he's developed.
I've got to go visit this place sometime.
That was wild...

I love this guy. He's my Hero!
Its like he is a culmination of all the great American philosophers and artists. He has never asked permission to be his dreams, as he reminds us its all our God given right to be free and live our creative destinies!
He is an example of what a true 'sovereign' individual is! When this parasitical system dies away, we will all be like this man. Free.
I believe he was referring
I believe he was referring to the Bohemian Club when talking about the Grove and worshipping of a Mo-loch.
Here is some info.

You never hear people that are genuinely pissed off in our mainstream media.
Our sanitized media won't allow strong emotions and god forbid any cussing. This reminds me of people in my own family. This is a real human being who isn't getting paid to promote the status quo.
Plus, he's comical.
