Yeah if it were any other band I’d say that was a made up story to try and give them cred. I just can’t imagine someone being intimidated by GYBE.

Their first EP had a diagram inside of it with instructions on how to make a Molotov cocktail. That part about them having photographs and writings that were anti-government made me chuckle, I’m not really surprised by that at all. They’re definitely not intimidating but if I was some random cop opening their van I would probably think they were a cult or something.

The way cops spin poo poo to save face it could have been anything, but I'm betting the photos of infrastructure are their drat album covers.

This basically, like I see how the cops got there it just makes me laugh that some dorky Canadians were out there enough to make some small town clerk pass a note to get someone else to call the cops he was so freaked out.

Oh, haha, absolutely. My "if I were a cop," in that statement was definitely more, "if I were a dumb, small-town cop looking for something to do".
A guy in my town got busted for "potentially having terrorist supplies" that turned out to be a bag of camera equipment. :jerkbag:

A friend of mine was walking around with a six-foot-long custom-made samurai sword and completely panicked the small-town police officer that drove by.

WE ARE SMART
I'm less surprised that small-town Oklahoma cops put them through the ringer after getting a call than I am that some random guy suspected a bunch of normal-looking white people were terrorists enough to call the cops on them. Even in the context of post-9/11 hysteria, I have no idea what could have prompted that.

I have to imagine GY!BE had some really choice stickers on their cello case and amps in 2003. You see a van of canadian hippies with instrument cases with lefty stickers on big boxes and a poo poo ton of cords and I can totally see someone with a stick rammed up their rear end calling the cops.

The photos of communications towers was 100% just their merch. Album covers, posters, etc. And given how anti-state they are, yeah I bet all their cases and crates had some stickers that would get a peckerwood cop all bothered. I can also see a little more sensitivity about that in Oklahoma given the OKC bombing.

What's the PPC? Are they right-wing, left-wing or one of those single issue groups (that are often mostly right wing when not talking about that single issue).

Dude definitely gives off a "Men's Rights" vibe.

The PPC is a very right wing conservative group started by a francophone who is mad he barely lost the Conservative party leadership vote to sentient milk scum because the vote was held in a conference centre with an anime convention and people got confused.
