Think you have me blocked (lol)

You cannot reply to entire big posts, you have to select the part you wanna reply to.

 

[Oxyjen]

Think you have me blocked (lol) so I can't reply directly, but traveling 6-7 hours to get somewhere in the united states is pretty common depending where you are. For reference that's about how long it takes to travel across Colorado west to east.

Travelling 6-7 hours each way multiple times to re-deliver some Amazon parcels, a couple of boxes of shitty alpaca wool and one (1) short-bed of illegal firewood? Is that really normal in the United States?

No, it isn’t. Penny had another reason to be up there and tacked on the Indian Giving as a shallow fund raising stunt.

And nobody has you blocked.

I wasn't making a statement on Penny's idiotic grift of wasting gas to drive stuff that could've been mailed, just that it isn't out of the ordinary to have to drive that far here in the states.

Wasn't aware the rules for replying to comments changed to stop someone replying to large ones, last time I logged I had no issues doing so

The trip was so Penny could stay at his parent's house and right off the mileage as tax deductible charity.

I know a guy who has a rental property near his parents for the express purpose of writing off trips back home to visit mom & dad as a business expense to "inspect his property".

Null changed it cos people were replying to massive posts of images and essentially it was re-entering all that data again and again. Occasionally it just doesn't like a certain post with no images tho and bugs out. Possibly cos i edit my posts a lot.
But if you highlight a sentence from a post, and hover, or right click, it comes up with a quote option, so you can reply to everything.

I would understand if the tranchers were miles away from everything else, but there are a lot of other closer indian reservations and other worthy recipients (of their absolute junk), between the two locations.
They had specific reasons, likely a few different ones, for their retard roadtrip. All of them nefarious.

Their entire set up was pretty nonsensical - it wasn't just the stuff could have been mailed, it's that literally everything had already been mailed. The donations weren't from the local community, they were from an Amazon wishlist that people all over the US bought random items off of. Those people then paid Amazon to ship those parcels to the Tranch. I understand people living on Pine Ridge can have issues with receiving Amazon deliveries, due to not having conventional addresses, but if they'd just arranged with a community site that did have an address, then donors could pay to have the Amazon parcels shipped directly there, with no need to send them to the Tranch or the Tranchers to drive them up themselves. The reservation still gets the goods - but the Tranch saves petrol money and doesn't have to neglect the highly profitable enterprise of alpaca ranching, so can offer further aid. Win-win. This is without going into the point that a mile down the road from the Tranch is the Boyer Ranch, an outpost of the Navajo Nation.

I'll bite, I'd also question why it'd be that common for Americans to drive for 6-7 hours with any regularity. That's like driving from Boston to Baltimore, or Albuquerque to Phoenix, or Orlando to Atlanta. I can understand Americans are accustomed to travelling longer distances but I'm unclear how anyone would have the time to regularly do that (and the journey back). The Native American guy they met did offer to just pick up the goods to save the tranchers the journey as he was "regularly in Colorado", but he didn't seem to have much to do (and I also suspect he was just saying that to stop the mentally-ill open-carrying unwashed white saviours from making their weird videos outside his house).

One we never got an answer to -

This was Penny handing over $2200 in cash in an envelope to a random woman in Denver he seemed to know, as the "first instalment", whose mother was from Pine Ridge. He claimed it was because she was "in trouble" and needed help with rent. I believe this was the "evidence" that the Oglala Lakota GoFundMe was going to Native people and not straight into the Tranch kitty, but really just a cash bung to his friend to help with the grift.

Well that and it meant they had an in to dumping all their unprocessed dirty alpaca roving while making grift videos.

It's one thing if you're regularly traveling for business, or you're some kind of truck driver. But regardless, you'll probably be staying overnight (the one exception is for the truck driver, and even then only if you leave immediately after). And when I say "truck driver" I mean someone who drives those 18-wheeler trucks, as opposed to some pickup truck or UPS brown delivery truck. I have no clue what they expected, unless they ordered a literal house's worth of furniture.

 

[ExsanguinateHorizon]

Look I don't want to be a dickhead, but can we make sure we don't spread misinformation? Kindness wasn't a blind robot baby bird.

She was a blind robot baby. She was voiced by birds, a crow and a parrot, because babies can't speak but the birds have psychic connections to the robot baby so they can translate the thoughts into words, since they're alters.

The specifics make it so much more insane.

I can't be arsed to find it but for those not in the know, there's videos of Kindness larping as the bird in this thread with the squawking voice like the MadTV Chicken Lady.

What the fuck is that pose Phil is doing? The woman in a winter coat is standing straight, with both booted feet firmly on the ground, while Penny is doing his best "teehee girl needing a piss" pose with his dainty holster causing his leg fat to bulge out. The man's got more teeth than brains, and we know Ol' Chewin' Side is running low on the former.

So very, very greasy, and awkward as fuck to film yourself giving over money.
It's obviously to look good, bit also it is a little tell that they know they need proof of them doing it, they know deep down that their intentions aren't pure and there's swirling doubts, of various nature's.
Greeeeeeeeeeeeassssy.

Or they didn't do it at all, and they just took a picture of handing him an envelope without even telling him it was supposed to have money in it. I mean even why do that if you actually did it? Either it wasn't as much as they claimed or it wasn't even money at all.

A shooting over property line dispute near Westcliffe leaves several dead, one wounded, suspect on the lam.

Around 2:30 p.m. Monday afternoon, Custer County law enforcement issued a shelter-in-place order for the Rocky Ridge Road area in the northern part of Custer County, northeast of Westcliffe.

I’m curious where this is relative to the old Tranch property.

Quite a way to the north:

Pre-trained before leaving the ranch, this is where the other Alpaca ended up.

i know they're llamas

 

[Procopius]

That's made me have another peek at Google maps. Interestingly, another animal rescue place has opened up down the road, the Veterans Rescue Ranch who describe themselves as an "animal rescue services as well as a sanctuary for veterans suffering from Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD), Traumatic Brain Injury (TBI), and/or Military Sexual Trauma (MST). The ranch spans 75 acres and is home to a variety of rescued animals, including dogs, cats, goats, and other farm animals." Rather sensibly they've avoided saving alpacas. The Tranch is the barren lot on the left, although it does seem to be recovering.



Zooming in, Sky seems to have done a lot of cleaning up. The trash piles and old mattresses are gone, and he's even got rid of Paul's beaten up car. This also shows clearly the missing outside terrace that went up in smoke when the propane tank was repossessed.



Also visible from space is the old tarp barn/slaughter pit/mass grave. One day it will surely reveal its secrets.

Nice update.

So, more mentally ill men with lots of guns and sheep in a remote desert compound. At least they’re honest about it though, good luck to ‘em.

I haven’t seen it come up on Zillow yet, although Bonnie did mention he had found someone interested in buying it, so maybe it won’t get listed.

Here’s how it looked when they bought it. Someone’s life work building that…







And there’s the estimate of what they paid, and what it’s theoretically worth now. Colorado prices seem to have topped out, so even given the sad state the place is in now, I think he’ll still come out ahead if he can close before the real estate bubble pops.

 

[Sexy Senior Citizen]

Hopefully, he doesn't. It'll be some small justice for those poor alpaca.

 

[Stupid Sexy Flanders]

I think the biggest issue is the alpaca massgrave. I can't see Boners excavating that and he'd have to tell a potential buyer about it being there if he doesn't want to risk more legal trouble in the future regarding the sale.
