Bill Hicks Interview

Thursday, September 16th, 2010

DaveTV
Bill Hicks on Austin Public Access with DaveTV. Originally Broadcast on October 24th, 1993.

Message from DaveTV-
I have to give Bill Hicks full credit for waking me up to how the world really works, and this, his last interview includes the footage which proves the Branch Davidians were murdered at Waco, a Bradley tank with a flame thrower attached. This interview was shown on Austin Public Access and has been on Google before, only to be pulled for some spurious reason. If Bill’s friend Kevin Booth is still selling this video then please support his good work (along with Alex Jones) exposing the New World Order, but the information Bill puts across in this interview is too important for humanity to be perceived as having “intellectual copyright”. Bill hardly swears in this interview so there’s no reason for it to be removed for obscenity reasons, if it gets pulled again then it’s the evilarchy, not his friends, followers or disciples requesting it’s removal. Please watch, learn and WAKE UP – There IS a war on for our minds… R.I.P. Bill, you’re my messiah, Vernon was a false prophet!

Video produced by CapZeyeZ Digital Media, all things Dave. Music videos from bands you wont see anywhere else. Dave’s websites are at http://www.rawtime.com/ and at http://www.davetv.org/ After 20 years on cable tv, Dave has taken the freedom highway known as the internet to showcase his works.
