1 00:00:03,000 --> 00:00:05,240 Hello and welcome to the program UFO Warning. 2 00:00:05,360 --> 00:00:09,680 In this episode, we're looking at an 1878 Texas UFO sighting. 3 00:00:09,680 --> 00:00:13,640 That's correct, an 1878 Texas UFO sighting. 4 00:00:14,000 --> 00:00:17,600 Now, what I love about these old sightings is that we can rule 5 00:00:17,600 --> 00:00:25,600 out drones, weather balloons, hobby balloons, top secret war 6 00:00:25,600 --> 00:00:27,520 machines, all that kind of nonsense. 7 00:00:27,960 --> 00:00:33,440 We can just. We can just take those tools out 8 00:00:33,440 --> 00:00:37,760 of the tool bag of the debunker, because 1878 was a long time 9 00:00:37,760 --> 00:00:41,080 before any of that stuff was even conceived of. 10 00:00:42,080 --> 00:00:45,000 Also, what I like about these is that so often the reports are 11 00:00:45,000 --> 00:00:49,400 just printed from the witness's mouth to our ear. 12 00:00:49,680 --> 00:00:52,840 We don't have a lot of this interjected stuff from the 13 00:00:52,840 --> 00:00:54,680 government. We don't have a lot of this 14 00:00:55,080 --> 00:00:57,920 nonsense from the debunker, so we get some of our very best 15 00:00:58,320 --> 00:01:01,280 reports of and sighting of sightings and counters I think 16 00:01:01,600 --> 00:01:06,080 from this pre purely modern era. Now this first article comes to 17 00:01:06,080 --> 00:01:10,560 us from theufocasebook.com ufocasebook.com. 18 00:01:10,560 --> 00:01:14,240 I'll put a link to their site at the Kofi and Locals website. 19 00:01:14,720 --> 00:01:16,200 A lot of really neat stuff over there. 20 00:01:16,360 --> 00:01:21,040 A very detailed, very full site over there. 21 00:01:21,040 --> 00:01:23,160 I definitely recommend you go over and take a look for 22 00:01:23,160 --> 00:01:27,680 yourself now. This article says January 1878 23 00:01:27,680 --> 00:01:32,480 Denison, TX Daylight UFO got a little illustration here and 24 00:01:32,480 --> 00:01:36,120 then it says the term flying saucer was made popular by a 25 00:01:36,120 --> 00:01:39,440 journalist covering Kenneth Arnold's sighting of nine flying 26 00:01:39,440 --> 00:01:44,360 disc in June of 1947. The Journal misquoted Arnold, 27 00:01:44,440 --> 00:01:48,680 who did not describe the objects as saucer shaped, but describes 28 00:01:48,680 --> 00:01:52,840 their strange movements as similar to a saucer thrown on 29 00:01:52,840 --> 00:01:55,440 the water and bouncing several times. 30 00:01:56,400 --> 00:01:59,560 Quote, they flew like a saucer would if you skipped it across 31 00:01:59,560 --> 00:02:02,560 the water. But a Texan farmer, John Martin, 32 00:02:02,800 --> 00:02:07,480 used the term saucer 69 years earlier to describe the flying 33 00:02:07,480 --> 00:02:11,280 object he saw on a hunting expedition in the surroundings 34 00:02:11,280 --> 00:02:14,640 of Denison, TX on January 2nd, 1878. 35 00:02:15,040 --> 00:02:19,240 In this case also, saucer does not refer to the shape but to 36 00:02:19,240 --> 00:02:23,960 the size of the object observed. As its shape was described as 37 00:02:23,960 --> 00:02:28,480 that of a balloon, John Martin saw the dark object high in the 38 00:02:28,480 --> 00:02:33,000 southern sky. He first noticed it to be about 39 00:02:33,000 --> 00:02:37,240 the size of an orange that grew in size as it got closer to him. 40 00:02:37,720 --> 00:02:41,760 After he had to rush his eyes, it had increased considerably 41 00:02:42,000 --> 00:02:45,280 and size and appeared to be going quite fast. 42 00:02:45,480 --> 00:02:49,800 When it was over him, it was the size of a large saucer and at a 43 00:02:49,800 --> 00:02:52,680 great height. So even though he says this is 44 00:02:52,680 --> 00:02:55,480 similar to a balloon, it doesn't sound at all like a balloon to 45 00:02:55,480 --> 00:02:57,400 me. Hard to believe somebody would 46 00:02:57,400 --> 00:03:01,360 have had the resources to place, you know, a large hot air 47 00:03:01,360 --> 00:03:06,800 balloon down there in this part of Texas, almost what 150 years 48 00:03:06,800 --> 00:03:09,720 ago. Because this UFO was dark and 49 00:03:09,720 --> 00:03:13,440 not a mysterious light, reflective or silvery, many 50 00:03:13,440 --> 00:03:17,040 scientists believe he saw a solid object against the sky 51 00:03:17,480 --> 00:03:21,160 with the light behind it. The sighting was reported by the 52 00:03:21,160 --> 00:03:26,440 local newspaper Dennison Daily News on January 25th, 1878 with 53 00:03:26,440 --> 00:03:30,800 the title A Strange Phenomena. The article was a first hand 54 00:03:30,800 --> 00:03:34,600 report from the farmer and its full text is and read it, it 55 00:03:34,600 --> 00:03:39,080 says from Mr. John Martin, a farmer who lives some 6 miles 56 00:03:39,080 --> 00:03:42,480 South of the city. We learned the following strange 57 00:03:42,480 --> 00:03:45,080 story Tuesday morning while hunting. 58 00:03:45,320 --> 00:03:48,160 His attention was directed to a dark object high up in the 59 00:03:48,160 --> 00:03:51,360 southern sky. The peculiar shape and velocity 60 00:03:51,720 --> 00:03:55,480 with which the object seemed to approach riveted his attention, 61 00:03:55,800 --> 00:03:58,120 and he strained his eyes to discover its character. 62 00:03:58,840 --> 00:04:01,360 When first noticed, it appeared to be about the size of an 63 00:04:01,360 --> 00:04:03,960 orange which continued to grow in size. 64 00:04:04,480 --> 00:04:08,280 After gazing at it for some time, Mr. Martin became blind 65 00:04:08,280 --> 00:04:12,800 from long looking and left off viewing it for a time in order 66 00:04:12,800 --> 00:04:16,720 to rest his eyes. On resuming his view, the object 67 00:04:16,720 --> 00:04:21,640 was almost overhead and had increased considerably in size. 68 00:04:22,120 --> 00:04:25,640 It appeared to be going through space at wonderful speed, went 69 00:04:25,640 --> 00:04:27,800 directly over him. It was about the size of a large 70 00:04:27,800 --> 00:04:30,240 saucer, and was evidently at great height. 71 00:04:30,680 --> 00:04:33,680 Mr. Martin thought it resembled, as well as he could judge, a 72 00:04:33,680 --> 00:04:36,040 balloon. It went as rapidly as it had 73 00:04:36,040 --> 00:04:39,920 come, and was soon lost to sight in the heavenly skies. 74 00:04:40,280 --> 00:04:44,680 Mr. Martin is a gentleman of undoubted veracity, and his and 75 00:04:44,680 --> 00:04:48,520 this strange occurrence, if it was not a balloon, deserves the 76 00:04:48,520 --> 00:04:52,040 attention of our scientists. Of course, old reports somehow 77 00:04:52,040 --> 00:04:54,920 lack inaccurate information and no witnesses interviewed. 78 00:04:55,160 --> 00:04:58,440 It's possible to get the missing information or check the witness 79 00:04:58,440 --> 00:05:02,080 reliability, but these old reports exist and even lacking 80 00:05:02,200 --> 00:05:06,200 of clear data, they sometimes cannot be easily interpreted in 81 00:05:06,200 --> 00:05:09,680 terms of commonplace phenomena. And goes on, it says. 82 00:05:10,080 --> 00:05:14,440 Who knows, maybe some even older report can still surface where a 83 00:05:14,440 --> 00:05:18,960 UFO is described as a saucer, like in some aspect written by 84 00:05:18,960 --> 00:05:21,840 BJ Booth. Yeah, that's kind of gives you a 85 00:05:21,840 --> 00:05:24,480 short synopsis of what happened there. 86 00:05:24,720 --> 00:05:26,520 Now let's take a look at this next article. 87 00:05:26,520 --> 00:05:32,040 This is from texascooppower.com. It's like the date on this is 88 00:05:32,040 --> 00:05:38,560 March 2016 by ER Bills. It says the first flying saucer 89 00:05:39,080 --> 00:05:42,440 description of Dennison. UFO in 1878 became archetype for 90 00:05:42,440 --> 00:05:46,000 alien space travel. That goes on, it says. 91 00:05:46,120 --> 00:05:49,120 When I was growing up in the late 1970s, the Star Wars and 92 00:05:49,120 --> 00:05:52,480 close Encounters of the Third Kind practically owned the big 93 00:05:52,480 --> 00:05:55,640 screen, and Hollywood followed up with a mork and many takeover 94 00:05:55,640 --> 00:05:58,240 of network TV. Folks were captivated by 95 00:05:58,240 --> 00:06:01,200 galaxies far, far away, and I was no different. 96 00:06:01,480 --> 00:06:04,720 But Texas seemed light years away from everything that was 97 00:06:04,720 --> 00:06:07,560 going on in deep space. I recently stumbled across 98 00:06:07,560 --> 00:06:10,360 something that dispelled this youthful misperception. 99 00:06:10,680 --> 00:06:14,360 Mork, Han Solo, Chewbacca and the visitors pertayed in close 100 00:06:14,360 --> 00:06:17,400 Encounters were all space travellers, and the modern 101 00:06:17,400 --> 00:06:20,720 archetype for alien space travellers is the flying saucer. 102 00:06:21,200 --> 00:06:23,880 As it turns out, the first recorded flight of a flying 103 00:06:23,880 --> 00:06:28,280 saucer was not in Roswell, NM, or Boulder, Co or at the Devil's 104 00:06:28,280 --> 00:06:31,720 Tower in Wyoming. One was spotted in Texas on 105 00:06:31,720 --> 00:06:35,160 January 22nd, 1878. Now the other article said 106 00:06:35,160 --> 00:06:37,440 January 17th, so just keep that in mind. 107 00:06:37,720 --> 00:06:42,120 According to a January 25th, 1878 front page report and the 108 00:06:42,120 --> 00:06:45,840 Dennison Daily News, which was attributed to the Dallas Herald 109 00:06:45,840 --> 00:06:49,360 and headlined a strange phenomena, a farmer named John 110 00:06:49,360 --> 00:06:53,000 Martin was hunting 6 miles north of the city when he spotted 111 00:06:53,000 --> 00:06:55,880 something in the distance. Martin's attention was directed 112 00:06:55,880 --> 00:06:58,920 to a dark object high up in the southern sky, the story said. 113 00:06:59,200 --> 00:07:01,760 The shape and velocity with which the object seemed to 114 00:07:01,760 --> 00:07:05,680 approach riveted his attention, and he strained his eyes to 115 00:07:05,680 --> 00:07:09,200 discover its character. At first, the object appeared to 116 00:07:09,200 --> 00:07:11,800 be the size of an orange, but it got bigger and brighter as it 117 00:07:11,800 --> 00:07:14,040 approached. Martin stared at it so long. 118 00:07:14,040 --> 00:07:17,640 He was temporarily blind, he was temporarily blinded, and by the 119 00:07:17,640 --> 00:07:21,040 time his vision was restored, the object was almost directly 120 00:07:21,040 --> 00:07:23,040 overhead. Kind of wonder if that was from 121 00:07:23,040 --> 00:07:25,840 staring or if that was from some sort of light this thing was 122 00:07:25,840 --> 00:07:28,440 emitting by then. It was about the size of a large 123 00:07:28,440 --> 00:07:32,200 saucer, quote UN quote, and was soaring across the sky at high 124 00:07:32,200 --> 00:07:34,200 altitude and with incredible speed. 125 00:07:34,440 --> 00:07:37,480 Martin said it resembled a balloon, and the Herald reporter 126 00:07:37,840 --> 00:07:40,440 noted that if it was not a balloon, it deserved the 127 00:07:40,440 --> 00:07:43,040 attention of our scientists. The story appeared in the Dallas 128 00:07:43,040 --> 00:07:46,560 Weekly Herald on January 26th, and the Daily Oklahomans soon 129 00:07:46,560 --> 00:07:49,160 after that. There is no evidence this 130 00:07:49,240 --> 00:07:52,320 incident ever actually received examination from local, state or 131 00:07:52,320 --> 00:07:55,160 national scientists at the time, but it did grab the attention of 132 00:07:55,160 --> 00:07:58,040 stargazers and researchers decades later. 133 00:07:58,560 --> 00:08:00,880 It was discussed in the influential book The Flying 134 00:08:00,880 --> 00:08:04,560 Saucers Are Real Faucet Publications, 1950 by Donald 135 00:08:04,560 --> 00:08:09,080 Kehoe Revisited in the Dallas Morning News on August 6th, 1965 136 00:08:09,400 --> 00:08:12,680 and examined in close Encounters of the Lone Star Kind and The 137 00:08:12,680 --> 00:08:17,320 Texas Monthly in 1969. It says although mysterious 138 00:08:17,320 --> 00:08:19,360 objects in the sky have been recorded throughout human 139 00:08:19,360 --> 00:08:21,880 history. The sighting in Dennison led to 140 00:08:21,880 --> 00:08:24,880 the first ever mention of a flying saucer, and flying 141 00:08:24,880 --> 00:08:28,800 saucers have been a staple of UFO lore ever since. 142 00:08:29,280 --> 00:08:32,320 Where Martin saw the saucer is not exactly clear. 143 00:08:32,600 --> 00:08:37,120 According to the 1880 US Census, there was a tenant farmer named 144 00:08:37,120 --> 00:08:40,600 John E Martin living in Grayson County, where Dennison is 145 00:08:40,600 --> 00:08:43,039 located. But there were five John Martins 146 00:08:43,039 --> 00:08:45,760 working as farmers at Collin County just north of Dallas and 147 00:08:45,760 --> 00:08:48,080 Dallas County. Three Johns, two of whom are 148 00:08:48,080 --> 00:08:52,440 listed in 1870 census, 1 John P and one John W in the 1880 149 00:08:52,440 --> 00:08:55,720 census listed no John Martin in the Dallas County. 150 00:08:56,000 --> 00:08:59,560 So definitely there were people there by that name and and it 151 00:08:59,880 --> 00:09:03,000 even in that very near location where this was reported to have 152 00:09:03,000 --> 00:09:05,480 happened at, it says. Regardless of which John Martin 153 00:09:05,480 --> 00:09:08,320 saw a flying saucer in North Texas in 1878. 154 00:09:08,720 --> 00:09:12,880 At least three local newspapers reported it at a time when no 155 00:09:12,880 --> 00:09:17,520 one had even heard of a UFO, much less base aliens, close 156 00:09:17,520 --> 00:09:20,960 Encounters or R2D2. The sighting occurred before 157 00:09:20,960 --> 00:09:24,480 there was a genuine context or compelling rhetoric for such 158 00:09:24,480 --> 00:09:26,640 events. It also took place before the 159 00:09:26,640 --> 00:09:29,800 sightings themselves became cliche, lending credence to the 160 00:09:29,800 --> 00:09:32,640 original account and firmly submitting the notion of 161 00:09:32,640 --> 00:09:35,680 visitors from galaxies far, far away, right here in our own 162 00:09:35,680 --> 00:09:37,840 backyard. That much is true. 163 00:09:37,840 --> 00:09:41,120 I mean, you weren't hearing about UFOs and the papers all 164 00:09:41,120 --> 00:09:42,680 the time, and it certainly didn't have the Internet or 165 00:09:42,680 --> 00:09:45,800 television or cell phones. This guy was just out hunting, 166 00:09:47,560 --> 00:09:50,320 trying to make ends meet, trying to put food on the table, and he 167 00:09:50,320 --> 00:09:54,280 sees this UFO that he describes as about the size of a saucer. 168 00:09:54,640 --> 00:09:57,800 Now this last article here is from boxton.com. 169 00:09:59,040 --> 00:10:03,640 Looks like it's about four years ago and it says 69 years before 170 00:10:03,640 --> 00:10:08,800 UFO Pop culture. January 1978 Denison, TX Well, 171 00:10:08,800 --> 00:10:12,760 most researchers attribute the term flying saucer to a 1947 172 00:10:12,760 --> 00:10:16,160 sighting of several disc shaped objects by pilot Kenneth Arnold 173 00:10:16,160 --> 00:10:19,120 at Mount Rainier, Washington. The term saucer was actually 174 00:10:19,120 --> 00:10:23,960 first used for a UFO in 1878 when Texas former John Martin 175 00:10:23,960 --> 00:10:26,880 described a flying object he saw during a hunting trip. 176 00:10:27,360 --> 00:10:29,680 Martin was hunting on his property north of Dallas, TX on 177 00:10:29,680 --> 00:10:32,760 the morning of Wednesday January 2nd, 1878. 178 00:10:33,200 --> 00:10:37,160 Suddenly he noticed a dark object in the sky to the South. 179 00:10:37,400 --> 00:10:40,760 When the farmer first saw it, the UFO was spot the size of an 180 00:10:40,760 --> 00:10:44,120 orange, but it grew in size rapidly as it approached his 181 00:10:44,120 --> 00:10:46,360 position, the local newspaper said. 182 00:10:46,360 --> 00:10:49,240 The peculiar shape and velocity with which the object seemed to 183 00:10:49,240 --> 00:10:52,280 approach riveted his attention and he strained his eyes to 184 00:10:52,280 --> 00:10:55,720 discover the character. Since it was morning and yet the 185 00:10:56,400 --> 00:10:59,840 the object looked dark. It seems like the UFO did not 186 00:10:59,840 --> 00:11:02,440 have any lights. Instead, it appeared as a dark 187 00:11:02,440 --> 00:11:04,840 shape against the bright blue of the sky. 188 00:11:05,320 --> 00:11:08,080 Martin kept staring at it as it moved rapidly toward him. 189 00:11:08,520 --> 00:11:11,240 Martin said the UFO appeared to be going through space at a 190 00:11:11,240 --> 00:11:13,640 wonderful speed. Let's think about this. 191 00:11:13,640 --> 00:11:15,560 This is back in the time of horse and buggies. 192 00:11:15,960 --> 00:11:19,120 I mean, not that long, but a dozen years after the Civil War. 193 00:11:19,120 --> 00:11:22,360 Ten years after the Civil War. I mean fastest thing around 194 00:11:22,360 --> 00:11:23,880 would have been a locomotive, I suppose. 195 00:11:24,280 --> 00:11:27,240 The brightness of the sky temporarily blinded Martin and 196 00:11:27,240 --> 00:11:29,560 he lost track of where the object was. 197 00:11:29,920 --> 00:11:32,040 He rested his eyes for a few minutes. 198 00:11:32,280 --> 00:11:34,560 By the time he could see it again the UFO was right on top 199 00:11:34,560 --> 00:11:37,200 of him and it was much larger than before. 200 00:11:37,400 --> 00:11:40,120 Some magic in this fellow being out there looking up into this 201 00:11:40,120 --> 00:11:44,000 bright sun filled sky, absolutely free of chemtrails I 202 00:11:44,000 --> 00:11:45,920 might add. And I suppose this the 203 00:11:45,920 --> 00:11:49,560 brightness of the sun behind this you know beautiful blue sky 204 00:11:49,720 --> 00:11:51,840 might have been enough to strain his eyes while he was staring at 205 00:11:51,840 --> 00:11:55,360 this UFO for a little too long, the newspaper article said when 206 00:11:55,360 --> 00:11:58,040 directly over him. It was about the size of a large 207 00:11:58,040 --> 00:12:00,760 saucer and was evidently a great height. 208 00:12:00,840 --> 00:12:03,280 So he knows this thing's big, but it's just way up there. 209 00:12:03,520 --> 00:12:07,280 So although it was huge in size, it was also very high up in the 210 00:12:07,280 --> 00:12:09,520 sky. This means his true size was 211 00:12:09,520 --> 00:12:11,480 even larger than what it seemed to be. 212 00:12:11,760 --> 00:12:14,480 Martin described the shape of the objects as sort of like a 213 00:12:14,480 --> 00:12:18,360 balloon, but although hot air balloons already existed, they 214 00:12:18,360 --> 00:12:21,320 were extremely rare and they did not move very fast. 215 00:12:21,640 --> 00:12:24,400 Martin kept watching the UFO until it moved completely out of 216 00:12:24,400 --> 00:12:27,000 view. It went as rapidly as it had 217 00:12:27,000 --> 00:12:30,200 come and was soon lost to sight in the heavily skies, the 218 00:12:30,200 --> 00:12:34,280 newspaper said. A report about the sighting 219 00:12:34,280 --> 00:12:38,720 appeared in the Denison Daily News on January 25th, 1878. 220 00:12:39,080 --> 00:12:42,240 It was titled A Strange Phenomena and consisted of a 221 00:12:42,360 --> 00:12:44,080 first hand report from the farmer. 222 00:12:44,400 --> 00:12:47,200 The newspaper article confirmed that Martin was a very 223 00:12:47,200 --> 00:12:49,680 trustworthy person. He was not the kind of person 224 00:12:49,680 --> 00:12:52,760 who would make up a false story. Mr. Martin is a gentleman of 225 00:12:52,760 --> 00:12:55,320 undoubted veracity, and his strange and this strange 226 00:12:55,320 --> 00:12:57,880 occurrence, if it was not a balloon, deserves the attention 227 00:12:57,880 --> 00:12:59,440 of our scientists, the article said. 228 00:12:59,800 --> 00:13:04,440 It's got a picture of this old newspaper here, pretty cool, and 229 00:13:05,120 --> 00:13:06,880 it also gives you the links to the actual. 230 00:13:06,880 --> 00:13:09,080 The actual newspaper article goes on. 231 00:13:09,080 --> 00:13:11,200 It has the quotes here from. It talks about when he's when, 232 00:13:11,200 --> 00:13:14,440 you know when he saw the this UFO Hut was the size of an 233 00:13:14,440 --> 00:13:17,200 orange Hut came up over him. He looks up, it's the size of a 234 00:13:17,200 --> 00:13:19,760 saucer and then it darts off. Then it goes on down here. 235 00:13:19,760 --> 00:13:22,120 Talking about Doctor J Allen Heineck, it says in the early 236 00:13:22,120 --> 00:13:26,240 1970s, Doctor J Allen Heineck, a famous astronomer and UFO 237 00:13:26,240 --> 00:13:28,520 investigator, studied the Martin sighting. 238 00:13:29,280 --> 00:13:32,280 Heineck classified the incident as a daylight disc. 239 00:13:32,680 --> 00:13:35,840 These types of UFOs usually travel very fast and make almost 240 00:13:35,840 --> 00:13:38,560 no sound. They sometimes make sudden sharp 241 00:13:38,560 --> 00:13:40,960 turns while traveling extremely fast. 242 00:13:41,320 --> 00:13:44,400 Daylight disk are often described as shiny or metallic. 243 00:13:44,760 --> 00:13:48,080 They usually display no lights. Sometimes the witnesses may hear 244 00:13:48,080 --> 00:13:51,040 a very faint swooshing sound. Daylight disk are mostly 245 00:13:51,040 --> 00:13:55,400 reported after 1940, so this is is a very unusual case from 246 00:13:55,400 --> 00:13:57,920 1878. It is extremely rare. 247 00:13:58,240 --> 00:14:01,200 It remains one of the most interesting UFO cases of the 248 00:14:01,200 --> 00:14:03,480 late 1800s. When you think about that, this 249 00:14:03,480 --> 00:14:06,120 guy's seen the same thing back then that we're seeing today. 250 00:14:06,280 --> 00:14:08,880 OK, but the difference is, is 1878. 251 00:14:09,960 --> 00:14:12,720 We don't have automobiles. We don't have cars that have 252 00:14:13,200 --> 00:14:14,360 airplanes that haven't been invented. 253 00:14:14,920 --> 00:14:17,400 So what was the UFO that this Mr. Martin's actually saw? 254 00:14:17,400 --> 00:14:20,440 Well, we know it wasn't a drone. We know it wasn't a Chinese or a 255 00:14:20,440 --> 00:14:24,520 Russian warplane or spy plane or spy balloon for that matter. 256 00:14:24,920 --> 00:14:27,800 It was a UFOI. Just think, this is so cool to 257 00:14:27,800 --> 00:14:30,600 go back and look at some of these old articles, especially 258 00:14:30,640 --> 00:14:33,000 in light of some of the stuff that's been going on. 259 00:14:33,600 --> 00:14:35,600 I think I'll cover it next week. Possibly. 260 00:14:35,960 --> 00:14:39,120 There's an article out talking about Representative Tim 261 00:14:39,120 --> 00:14:44,040 Burchett being approached by I don't know if it's a congressman 262 00:14:44,040 --> 00:14:48,160 or what, but this person telling him, unnamed person telling him 263 00:14:48,520 --> 00:14:52,520 that he needs to quit pursuing disclosure on UFOs because 264 00:14:52,520 --> 00:14:56,240 Americans can't handle the truth, can't handle the truth? 265 00:14:56,480 --> 00:14:58,800 Well, look what happened in 1878. 266 00:14:58,800 --> 00:15:01,640 They handled the truth. They just reported what they 267 00:15:01,640 --> 00:15:04,320 saw. But today we have this huge 268 00:15:04,320 --> 00:15:06,760 apparatus that I call the Deep State. 269 00:15:06,760 --> 00:15:10,800 Some people, I guess, call it the BLOB of these dozens, if not 270 00:15:10,840 --> 00:15:15,840 hundreds, of agencies and departments and whatnot filled 271 00:15:15,840 --> 00:15:19,040 with bureaucrats. Most of them pretty well pay, by 272 00:15:19,040 --> 00:15:23,720 the way, the living living off of the taxpayer largesse. 273 00:15:24,280 --> 00:15:27,760 And they're the ones telling us that only they should know about 274 00:15:27,760 --> 00:15:31,040 the UFOs. Only they are allowed to have 275 00:15:31,040 --> 00:15:33,520 this information. Now, in 1878, we didn't really 276 00:15:33,520 --> 00:15:37,240 have that. We didn't have all of the 277 00:15:37,240 --> 00:15:40,440 bureaucracy that was created under Woodrow Wilson's 278 00:15:40,600 --> 00:15:43,240 administration. And after that we didn't have 279 00:15:43,720 --> 00:15:48,040 the whole modernization of of society being taken over by 280 00:15:48,360 --> 00:15:52,600 these government bureaucrats. So information did seem to flow 281 00:15:52,600 --> 00:15:54,760 somewhat more freely on a lot of levels. 282 00:15:55,280 --> 00:15:59,320 In this case, we had a guy who claimed to see a UFO, and the 283 00:15:59,320 --> 00:16:02,640 reporter simply reported what the man said. 284 00:16:03,040 --> 00:16:05,080 He didn't take it upon himself to debunk him. 285 00:16:05,080 --> 00:16:07,240 He didn't take it upon himself to try to deperson this 286 00:16:07,240 --> 00:16:11,160 individual. He didn't print lies about him, 287 00:16:11,160 --> 00:16:14,760 or innuendos or rumors, or didn't accuse him of being 288 00:16:15,320 --> 00:16:20,480 mentally ill or having some other design on the situation to 289 00:16:20,480 --> 00:16:22,760 profit from it. He simply reported what the 290 00:16:22,760 --> 00:16:25,920 witness told him. He saw a simpler, better time. 291 00:16:26,840 --> 00:16:31,000 So when people say that we can't handle the truth, I would have 292 00:16:31,000 --> 00:16:33,800 to say, well, perhaps some people couldn't handle the 293 00:16:33,800 --> 00:16:35,200 truth. I mean, after what we've been 294 00:16:35,200 --> 00:16:37,000 through the last couple years, I think that's obvious. 295 00:16:37,440 --> 00:16:40,480 But I do believe that the majority of the people can 296 00:16:40,480 --> 00:16:42,600 handle the truth. And we can handle it the same 297 00:16:42,600 --> 00:16:48,400 way it was handled in 1878 when John Martin seen this UFO fly 298 00:16:48,400 --> 00:16:50,400 over his farm while he was out hunting. 299 00:16:51,040 --> 00:16:53,600 Just report the truth. Nothing but the truth. 300 00:16:54,280 --> 00:16:56,240 As they say, the truth will set you free, right? 301 00:16:56,680 --> 00:16:58,600 Until next time, this is UFO warning. 302 00:16:58,800 --> 00:16:59,400 Over and out.
