Don't Pick Up The Phone.

[fightforfreedom]

If you believe you have seen the height of stupidity watching Trump and the Trump voters, you haven't seen nothing yet.

Last night I watched Don't Pick Up The Phone on Netflix. It is a true event. I may have to seek therapy.

I will not give away what it is about. If you watch it be prepared to be shocked and sickened.

1. Looks really weird.

Thanks.

2. I can't believe I never heard about it and I can't believe it happened.

I can't believe how stupid some people can be.

13. It's amazing what instructions people will follow

when they believe the requestor is in a position of authority.

Some years after the McDonalds incident there was a call made to a KFC somewhere in New England, if memory serves. The caller identified themselves as KFC management and instructed the manager to spray fire suppression foam all over the store. The caller advised that to decontaminate themselves from the chemicals, the three female store employees would then need to go outside, completely disrobe and then urinate on one another, which they promptly did. Police were tipped off when a customer called them to complain about the naked employees

14. What's amazing is this was happening everywhere across the country.

I can't believe we never heard about it. I never did and nobody I have talked to has heard about it.

3. There is something interesting brought up in this series, It's a three part series.

People, from a young age, in small towns, small communities, are taught to trust people, people in authority. That can have consequences. I was brought up to not trust anybody, question everything that's doesn't seem right. That protects you.

4. Added to the list. Thanks...I think.

One more dog damn thing. How pissed and I going to be?

5. You will be disgusted. I don't know how pissed you will be.

9. I absolutely admit that pissed is my go to these days.

In more ways than one. For an eastern philosophy guy this is not ideal. I will try to watch without a word to the TV.

12. I guess you really will be pissed off then, Lol.

There was one moment, one act, watching this that truly shocked me because it can't happen, It's impossible. But it did happen. It is so sick. I got angry.

6. Yep....

7. There is a good movie based on this, Compliance

Ann Dowd from The Handmaid's Tale is in it. It's disturbing and I was shocked it was based on a true story.

8. 1+

10. I finished it last night.

The program was well done. We really do have some extremely gullible people in this country. It's no wonder that someone like Trump was our president.

11. I haven't seen it, but had heard of it

Spoiler - don't click on link if you haven't seen "Don't Pick Up the Phone"

Actually there's an interesting sidebar story about this mini-series on ScreenRant, which is a movie and TV review blog.

(link) https://screenrant.com/what-happened-to-walter-nix-dont-pick-up-phone/

The mini-series is about real events, it's a true-crime documentary so the characters and victims are based on real people. This ScreenRant story does a follow-up on one of the people in the movie, he was actually sent to prison.
