George Noory Sucks! - The Definitive Compendium

[blackshap9]

Sadly, Sir, I am not exaggerating things.  My thought was that this guy should be stoned to death outside the courthouse.  He's a sicko.  I felt dirty typing this.  Ugh!

I can't post it to You Tube, but here is the transcript.....



Call starts around 13:51.  Jay in Hamden?, CT



Jay it's your turn on Coast to Coast, Hi Jay

Hey George it's a pleasure to speak with you. I'm a former inmate in CT prison and that's where I learned about your show and I have to say on behalf of all CT inmates listening to C2C has helped us get through many long nights in prison, so thank you very much for that.

You're welcome.  We get lots of letters, I - I get personal letters from inmates who are in prisons all around this country and I hope all of you the best and that you're able, when you get out, if you get out that you can rehabilitate yourself and go on and have a great life

Yeah, and that's exactly what I've been trying to do and I guess one thing that's encouraging me to call you tonight is George you are a very open minded person and that's something that you should be commended for.  I guess I've heard you talk about prisoners before and correct me if I'm wrong but overall you believe that most prisoners can be rehabilitated

YES

But you don't believe that internet pedophiles can be rehabilitated.  Is that correct?

Uh, well, I didn't get into the specifics of internet - I just said pedophiles.

Just pedophiles, ok.  

Yeah, I have a very difficult time thinking they can be rehabilitated. 

Well that's what I wanted to talk to you about today because George, unfortunately, I do fall into that category. 

HE SHOULD HAVE DUMPED THE CALL AT THIS POINT!

What did you do?  Can I ask you?

Yeah, I had some illegal images on my computer - child pornography - and I've had some other issues too, but I'm not going to go into that, detail about them.  I have not molested anybody but nonetheless I am in the child predator category.  

Do you think, Jay, that you were capable of molesting someone?  A child?

You know, I'm definitely, I'll always, be capable of that and that's part of the treatment process.

Sure.  When you were growing up, as a kid, as a young man, as a boy, did you get molested?

I was not molested, no.

You were not.  What was the trigger that got you into this area?  Something had to have happened.

What happened was, well there are different triggers to my offense nature, however, I can tell you that I dealt with deviant thoughts and fantasies since my early teen years and unfortunately I chose to make bad decisions and not manage those in proper ways.  Which unfortunately led me to chose to break the law. 

Would you say that you had a pretty good upbringing as a kid or a bad one?

I had a very good upbringing. My parents are the most loving wonderful people on the face of this earth.  They believe in unconditional love and that is something that I believe in as well.  I guess what the biggest point that I want to say too is that first of all this does not justify my behavior or anybody else's behavior but with that being said there are two sides to every story.  As far as the type of things that I've had to go through in my life and the difficulties - and the bad decisions that I've made because of these difficulties in my own life.

Well, there's no question about that, Jay and I hope that one day you prove me wrong in terms of my thoughts about that, uh, because I really want prisoners, you know I'm not talking about people who go out and murder people and stuff like that obviously, but I really people that when they finally get out of prison to get their lives together -  to get rehabilitated.  I've got a friend of mine.  He's a security guy in St. Louis - great guy - he would watch over people at clubs and stuff, make sure everybody was ok but he had some priors when he was a young person growing up in the inner city.  You know, nobody dealt him a great hand and so he had priors and apparently he had a gun - he wasn't supposed to.  He had it in his house and apparently somebody called the police on him when they saw him breaking into his car HIS CAR.  He was trying to get into it, I guess, and the police came and said what are you doing and they arrested him.  He said this is my car.  Well, they somehow went to his house and found the gun, realized that he was not supposed to be carrying one and the poor guy gets seven years in a federal institution for this.

Oh, the amount of time that's given for all kinds of crimes, and let me tell you when I was in prison, I've heard so many stories like that and it does, it blows my mind and finally we have a governor here in CT who is trying to avoid that because not only are people going to jail for situations like that but there's also people who are getting their probation violated for all kinds of things where they should not be violated - they should be reprimanded and given another chance and because of the budget issues that we're having in CT which I think is true of every state in the union, you know, they have to cut it down because it costs a fortune to take care of us whether we're in for life or whether we're in for a couple of years. 

In your particular case, do you think you can win - that you can defeat this, these demons within yourself?

The way I look at it is I try to compare myself to someone who battles alcoholism.  There's no magic pill that can stop alcoholism although there are medicines that can suppress the urges and in my situation it's very similar.  There's no magic cure and I'm aware of that but I'm also aware that my activities are against the law for a good reason - because I've hurt people, not just the victims that I've created but also my family, my friends, everybody has been hurt by my situation.

Were people shocked when this happened to you, when you got arrested?

Oh they were shocked, and actually, I'm glad you brought that up because I have had a lot of friends that are still supporting now that they know about my situation.  However, they are supportive, but one of the things they said was we didn't think you were like that.  That's kind of my whole point because George, let me tell you there are a lot of people like me.  I have a college degree but unfortunately for one reason or another I have these temptations and these urges. 

All right Jay, I want you to hold on because I want to get your number, if it's ok with you - I may want to do a much more in-depth program with you and some other people about this, but prove me wrong, friend, prove me wrong on this...I hope you do.

Thanks for the transcript...this is some gross stuff

[kf5iwe]

Have any of you listened to Friday's open lines?  During the first part of hour 3 George gets a call from someone who says he did time for kiddie porn.  George asked him lots of questions and was courteous to him.  Before the call was over he asked to put him on hold because he wanted to get his number for "a future show."  WHAT THUH FUUUUUCK??

George Noory sucks!!!

[Agent : Orange]

I can't post it to You Tube, but here is the transcript.....

Thanks for taking the time to post this.

Wow.

If Noory wants to do a show that focuses on this, I think he would be better off talking to a psychiatrist and someone who has had direct involvement with treatment and rehabilitation plans for this kind of thing. Which could potentially be an interesting show.

But opening the floor to a convicted pedophile is damn disturbing...

[McPhallus]

It IS an interesting topic, i.e., what makes them tick and how society is supposed to deal with them.  A guy i grew up with just got nine years for child porn.  With a skilled host such a show could shed new light on the subject, but George of course would make it a mess.

[McPhallus]

This has caused me to cross over and actually hate George Noory.

Really?  You've said such awesome things about him in the past.

[b_dubb]

Doing a show with a pedophile guest would be career suicide. God damn do I hope he does a show with pedophile guest. And he isn't reading this thread

[Marc.Knight]

Doing a show with a pedophile guest would be career suicide. God damn do I hope he does a show with pedophile guest. And he isn't reading this thread

Any kind of interview would be a form of reward for a pedophile. 

[Sardondi]

(Re: Sylvia Browne)...Can you imagine how bad a person would have to be to be banished from a carnival freakshow like Coast to Coast AM?...

...But opening the floor to a convicted pedophile is damn disturbing...

Think about it: Sylvia Browne gets banned (rightfully, IMO), and George wants to do a show featuring a pedophile.

I have some experience in this area, having been a state and federal prosecutor for over 25 years, and also having had experience as a defense attorney. And when it comes to pedophiles (true pedophiles, who believe that children as young as 18-months are mature beings fully capable of giving consent to sexual activity; and not some 19-year-old who believed his 15-year-old gf when she said she was 18), they cannot be "cured", period.*

Whether by trauma or by the complexities of genetic coding, pedophiles are different from regular people. They're bent out of true; their wiring is different; they are a different subset of human. They see a five-year-old girl (or 10-year-old boy, etc.) and their biological and physiological response is what the average healthy male's would be at seeing a naked 21-year-old girl - fantasies of sexual activity.

I leave it to someone else to determine causes and treatment. I can only suggest what our response, as members of a society which values both freedom and security, should be to pedophiles. And that is, we can only be safe if true pedophiles are shut off from contact from the subject of their sexual desire, essentially forever. Long after the physical ability to act on any sexual impulses is past (which with the coming of Viagra, Cilalis, etc., is later and later), pedophiles will still attempt to be with the objects of their desire, and will try to perform acts which, if not strictly considered rape or sexual assault, are still coercive and traumatic for children.

That probably means some form of incarceration is the only response. In a perfect situation we would have "maroon islands" where sexual predators of similar tastes could be kept so as to give them maximum freedom, but to keep them away from those they would abuse. Because if they get a chance, almost all of them will.

The caller talked about his rehab and therapy, and about his prior "choices" as not having being good, etc., just like any AA or NA member would. That's all well and good. It can't hurt. But you cannot we-wire these people. They can of course deny their natural inclinations and refuse to act on them. Roman Catholic priests...both heterosexual and homosexual, and even pedophiles...have done so for millenia by remaining celibate. But at their core they are what they are. It may have been a terrible tragedy of abuse which made them into pedophiles, and it may be terribly unfair. But the bottom line is, society must protect itself. I'm not about to sacrifice my children's physical, mental, emotional and future sexual health and well-being just to make a recovering pedophile feel good about himself. I'm all for a guy trying to do the right thing, but I'll never let him babysit for me.

So far society's response to pedophiles who have acted on their impulses has been prison for a number of years and then psychological counseling and behavior modification. And that may work for some. Unfortunately it doesn't work for all. And worse, we know that a great deal of sexual abuse of minors goes unreported. There's no doubt that many "cured" pedophiles, for whom there is no record of improper contacts for the rest of their lives, in actuality did molest children who kept silent. IMO it is to prevent that horrific outcome that, until we learn how to truly fix them, we must separate pedophiles from society for the rest of their lives. Some might think that's very harsh, but it's what experience tells us. And I think the physical safety and emotional security of children is more important than making a pedophile on parole feel like we trust him.

Now, as to George Noory making a show available for a pedophile...WTF?!



* When I say "they", I mean males, for something like 95% of offending pedophiles are male. As to what % of the population are pedophiles, figures are all over the map. Unfortunately this issue has been highly politicized and groups who have an agenda other than pedophilia use it to further their pet issue. For example, some lesbian feminists have exaggerated the incidence of pedophilia to "show" that males are genetically predisposed to sexual predation. Some fundamentalist religious groups have tried to use pedophilia to attack homosexuality in general; while on the other hand some homosexual groups have presented concocted and fraudulent studies of same-sex pedophilia to try to minimize the bad press for homosexuality, etc. So I generally avoid % unless there is no disagreement at all.

[meanmug247]

sardondi your absolutely correct by saying that pedophiles are a different subset of human.  I had a friend that I was pretty close to reveal to me that he's attracted to children. he was actually sitting there in front of me telling me how a two year old knows what's going on and can decide if they want to or not. I had no idea he was about to drop that bomb on me. I was in complete shock. it got ugly I ended up threatening his life. I didn't know what to do I was freaking out. I felt like if I didn't do something I would be just as guilty if he acted on it so I talked to a police friend of mine. he told me there's nothing he can do unless there was evidence. I can't wrap my brain around how someone can be attracted to a little kid. I don't want to. I looked into it of seems the only possible solution is chemical castration.

[analog kid]

I'm quite world weary enough without delving into this subject matter on C2C. Do believe I'd skip that one, if I still listened to George. It's like the deluge of murder entertainment on cable - I'd rather just not know about these things.

[UnscreenedCaller]

Now, as to George Noory making a show available for a pedophile...WTF?!

I can only shake my head in absolute disbelief over that phone call. Unfortunately, I know first hand what lifelong damage a molester can do, just as I know that the caller was trying to gain Noory's and the audience's sympathy. Rule #1: Pedophiles are manipulative. They'll threaten kids and ingratiate themselves with the adults around them, but in t he end, it's all a ploy to get to the child. He can't stop being a pedophile; giving him a platform is playing right into his hands, not to mention any other pedophiles who happen to be listening. If he's trying to change, good for him. Sorry to be cynical, or rather realistic, but the chances of him being anything other than a sexual predator of children is slim to none. Someone like  him should be interviewed by a professional; Noory is hardly that, and I could easily see this deteriorating into a sickening attempt by Noory to get the gory details, while the guy gloats that his story is going out over the airwaves.

Yeah, I had some illegal images on my computer - child pornography - and I've had some other issues too, but I'm not going to go into that, detail about them.  I have not molested anybody but nonetheless I am in the child predator category.

This is the part where you can see the manipulation going on. He has "some illegal images". He's had "some other issues" that he's not going to talk about, and he never directly calls himself a child predator and owns to the fact says he's in that category and Moron fell for it hook, line and sinker, accepts it all without questioning it,  and ends up with his vacuous speech about people getting their lives together after jail. What a class A gullible schmuck he is. This is the interview that will be sure to bite him in the ass.

I heard this show as well, and just when I thought Coast to Coast couldn't possibly sink any lower, George proved me wrong.

I have a legitimate question for everyone here:  Why would George want to do a show with a convicted internet pedophile as a guest?  I just can't wrap my mind around it. 

[punkinpie]

I have some experience in this area, having been a state and federal prosecutor for over 25 years, and also having had experience as a defense attorney.

Are they, generally speaking, validated by attention?  What do you think would motivate this guy to call up a radio show and confess to his perversion?

[punkinpie]

I'm quite world weary enough without delving into this subject matter on C2C. Do believe I'd skip that one, if I still listened to George. It's like the deluge of murder entertainment on cable - I'd rather just not know about these things.

The interest in speaking to him again bothered me.  I don't want to know!  It doesn't feel like a Coast to Coast topic to me.  C2C should be more X-Files and less evening news.

The part of the conversation that really bothered me was "I'm not talking about people who go out and murder people and stuff like that obviously, but I really want people that when they finally get out of prison to get their lives together -  to get rehabilitated."

Many times murder is justifiable.  Kiddie porn and child molesting is something that you can never argue was acceptable or a misunderstanding.   He was too much of a pussy to stick to his guns that he didn't believe that child molesters could be rehabilitated because he was on the telephone with one.  What an asshole. 

Who screened that call?  Is Tommy-boy just fucking with him now? 

[Sardondi]

They'll threaten kids and ingratiate themselves with the adults around them, but in t he end, it's all a ploy to get to the child.....

You're absolutely right. It goes without saying pedophiles are unbelievably selfish. Most are incredibly manipulative, and display an ego and a kind of entitlement attitude and narcissism that is usually seen only in sociopaths, They will screw with a kid's head in ways that can literally ruin the child for life, playing on natural feelings of guilt and twisting the child's naive fears that there was something wrong with or bad in the child that the pedophile could see; or that the child is responsible for having seduced the pedophile. Oh, it is wretched, hideous stuff, and the wrongful guilt which follows so many molested kids has been enough to make their entire lives miserable, driving countless numbers to even take their own innocent lives out of shame, which was put there by these animals.

Noory is a cretin if he falls for this user's line. It's all about the pedophile getting "understanding", which will turn into ignoramus callers telling him he's "brave" and applauding him for getting help", and "reforming". Which plays into him feeling he was done wrong, and so that now he's owed something. Like that cute little 4-year-old that has been giving him the come on, and wants him to take it into the bathroom....God, if Noory tries to capitalize off this travesty he needs to be horsewhipped.

Unscreened, you have my most heartfelt sympathy and hope that you have the support and love you need.

Thinking the exact same way you are in every respect.   This is absolutely, positively not a topic I want to hear discussed on Coast to Coast - especially by George Noory.  Topics like this are best left up to professionals in another form. 

What direction is this show going in? I seriously do not understand it. What sort of audience are they trying to gain?  I want Bigfoot, X-Files, Mel's Hole, Shadow People, even aliens in the closet - not guests who are addicted to kiddie porn.

You have expressed everyone's frustration perfectly.

[coaster]

so i'm sure you gabbers know coast has a facebook page. Where they throw a random picture thats irrelevant to the nights show and I usually go on a nightly Noory tangent. (When Im drunk) A lot of people like it, a lot of waterheads dont. Ive been blocked a time or two. I'm worn out from it.  But I let em know. I dont know what Im trying to say. Other than  Porgy Noory sucks, his fb sucks,and coastgabs still bringin me back. thats saying something.
sincerely, your fulltime drunken coast troll,

About an hour ago I wrote a (totally futile) email to Premiere's public relations address, making this very point. I said I had noticed a trend to what passes for "serious" topics at C2C, with Noory having many more "fear porn" guests like Alex "Slavery Is Upon Us And There's Nothing We Can Do" Jones. I said IMO that was useless, since people have never come to C2C to get their news - they come for paranormal, UFO, weird, spooky, goofy, silly stuff that is escapist.

I just finished reading it a little while ago Sardondi, and I agree - what ever happened to "things that go bump in the night" ?

Let us know if you get a response. 

[blackshap9]

Let us know if you get a response.

I read it as well and althoughI take my hat off to Sardondi for writing the letter it is very unlikely and almost assured he will not get a response;

a) The letter was written improperly. Complaint letters should be short and to the point being no longer than 9-12 sentences divided into 3 organized paragraphs. I remember reading about complaint letters in some business psychology class years ago however just punching "how to write a complaint letter" in google results in a plethora of pages giving similar advice.

b) There is no immediate solution. It is not as if they can send you a coupon or anything like that.

If they are making money nothing will change. Writing the companies that advertise on C2Cam has a better chance at gathering attention. There is not a company on earth that wants to be associated with child molesters.

[Sardondi]

....Let us know if you get a response.

Heh, Aheheheh, bwwwwWAAAAAAHAAAHAAAAHAAAAAHAAAAA!!!!


Okay, but is there anything about Premiere which makes you think they're concerned about what listeners think?

You're absolutely right about letter length and likelihood of response from Premiere and reason therefore. I wrote the letter for me. But occasionally a black sheep sneaks through, and someone might say, is there something going on we're not tracking?

[tmock00]

Heh, Aheheheh, bwwwwWAAAAAAHAAAHAAAAHAAAAAHAAAAA!!!!

[Sardondi]

Ah, but see my answer just above yours, which keeps hope alive. 

[blackshap9]

This whole website is one big complaint letter 

[Minni]

I said IMO that was useless, since people have never come to C2C to get their news - they come for paranormal, UFO, weird, spooky, goofy, silly stuff that is escapist.

Actually, i'm cut from totally different cloth than most members of this forum, and what I used to visit C2C for, were topics like stem cells, Bible Codes, Evelyn Paglini, and Crop Circles. Also there was this one European (Swedish?) physicist who actually spoke layman's language in a drawling/thoughtful layman's terms, who I used to love hearing.

Whereas anything complicated, esoteric & impractical, such as time travel, aliens, Bigfoot, math, numerology, astronomy, Area 51, crime-related such as political assassinations, always bores me. The reason Paglini (and others like her) interest me, is because my real-life experiences caused me to relate to same. Ditto re: stem cell topics, due to severely chronic ill health.

But even though my interests probably bore most of you, I still share one thing in common with y'all, and that's that Noory bores the h out of me, unlike Art Bell used to. I also used to like most of Bell's music, unlike Noory's.

[Ben Shockley]

Totally off-track from the real meaning of the post, but:

... I also used to like most of Bell's music, unlike Noory's.

I think that, like it or not, the music played on NoorCoast has little to do with Georgie.   He probably insists on the occasional playing of "Red Rubber Ball," which is as close as his mom ever let him get to "socially relevant '60s music" --because it vaguely sounds like Simon and Garfunkel (if those names could even be mentioned in the Noory house ... you know~) -- but otherwise, he has no idea what is played as bumpers nor could he comment on them even if he knew.

Art (Bell, not Garfunkel) used to be a music DJ and at least knows old music and how to intro it and comment on it.

[WOTR]

I leave it to someone else to determine causes and treatment.

Screw the causes.  Castration is a perfectly reasonable treatment (and not even chemical- outright surgical.)  You get the one free pass where you attend prison, treatment and attempt to rehabilitate yourself.  After that, you have proven you no longer need to be a complete man.

George may not realize it, but comparing a pedophile to an alcoholic is unfair.  Unlike the pedophile, when an alcoholic slips they generally do not have a lasting effect on somebody's life.  I am so happy to hear George unable to even manage to maintain a single position.  When faced with somebody who he has always claimed is not able to be rehabilitated he folded like a cheap lawn chair and decided that it is now just murderers (though I suppose that when a murderer calls in it will just be those guilty of genocide who are bad people.)  What a spineless, useless waste of skin.  I suppose he is wanting to interview this guy to find the troooth?

Sadly, Sir, I am not exaggerating things.  ...uh, because I really want prisoners, you know I'm not talking about people who go out and murder people and stuff like that obviously, but I really people that when they finally get out of prison to get their lives together -  to get rehabilitated.

Thanks for taking the time to type that out.

I doubt that I am alone in this.  I have less problems with a murderer getting out and getting a honest shot at a second chance.  Most murderers at least had a reason and are not just drawn to kill people (unlike somebody who likes kids who will always be drawn to them.)  Most do not just prey on the most helpless people they can find.

[Camazotz Automat]

   Well, I vehemently disagree with everyone here.  Child predators can easily be rehabilitated.  The human brain can always be readjusted.  While capable of lifelong imprints, it is, according to the latest research on neurogenesis, a fantastically plastic organ and not nearly as static as once believed. I can't cite all the facts and I may not be as aware of the various statistics, but I know without a doubt I am correct.

Even as recently as last month, I was in personal communication with the two brilliant men responsible for the groundbreaking application and I listened adroitly as they expounded on their successful project. They illustrated, with deadly accuracy, their well tested theory and the application of the healing neural probe.

I will refrain from getting into a useless electronic catfight here about it, so you may Google them at your leisure.... Then you will know the unadulterated truth - that Drs. Smith and Wesson have a 100% cure rate. I am confident your personal research will prove me right and that I can convert the non-believers present in this forum.

I've never seen such a coagulation of pessimists, but I do have faith in you and that is why I returned to share the above information.

(Not to mention Vandevan bribing me with the promise of a wholesome family picnic beneath the St. Louis Arch if I would but stir things up a bit "In that Cam-style you do" he said, "because whatever you're doing is generating a nice, but anomalous web traffic spike. Are those black ops suits after you again, Cam? Are they aggressively trolling the site? What did you do? Did you piss someone off at The Lone Gunmen Convention again?")

Now back to the topic of these fucking perpetually dying light bulbs if I may.....

Has it not occurred to the Great Snoremeister that he should order his bulbs from C Crane Company?  You know, the bulbs that last practically forever ... the bulbs they once pushed so hard mid-interview on show after show?

What, precisely, is up with Noory not making that choice? Doesn't it reflect badly on C Crane Company that George doesn't utilize their miraculous products? Has the C Crane Company/Coast to Coast relationship deteriorated? It may have. I am a bit out of the C2C loop, what with evading various authorities so much.

I suppose he could blame it on the "fixtures" not taking X type of bulb, but what with the claimed frequency of bulb changing going on, I'm inclined to believe they are not fluorescent long tubes burning out.  If they are indeed basic incandescent bulbs, then what better commercial for C Crane's LED bulbs?  If it's halogen track lighting, then let C Crane pony up the remodel for LED spotlights.

This could be C Crane Company's golden moment of intervention. What am I missing here?

(Were it up to me, I would have George's "somewhere deep underground" location fitted with mystical argon gas tube workings of a decidedly Jules Verne/Captain Nemo/Nautilus derivation, replete with submarine doors - but that's just me and my romantic side. I'm afraid I've enjoyed one too many viewings of Cy Endfield's and Ray Harryhausen's "The Mysterious Island." But who can forget the ineffable Herbert Lom rising from the sea as Captain Nemo? What a fantastic old Sci Fi flick. I fear the 94 year old Lom is not long of this Earth, so out of respect, consider viewing and appreciating this classic while he lives and do so SOON. Harryhausen's brilliant stop motion in this film blows CGI out of the water if approached in the correct "frame of mind."  Get it?  Did you notice that? "Frame of mind?" Even now, I can see that promised Vandevan Family picnic under the Gateway to the West as if it were already occurring, such is the magnetic power of my soon to be rewarded prose.)

Did someone say something?

Anyway, back to the light bulbs.  It sounds like a win-win-win situation to me - especially for the listeners who wouldn't have to suffer through the burned out bulb story ever again.  (assuming CCC's products held up. That would be even more entertaining if George complained that CCC's bulbs "keep burning out! I don't understand it! I don’t understand it at alllll!")

Cam out

(P.S.  I half suspect George is hinting to his audience that his aggressively acute telekinetic ability is blowing out the current bulbs. He just can't help it!  Too... much... power.... Too ... much.... VRIL....)
