The description for the video contends that Hart blocked Tatkowski’s driveway while stopping Meyers, and that the confrontation began after Tatkowski asked Hart to move his vehicle."

Did You Know: YOU Are Responsible for the Washington Navy Yard Murders

"ABC Radio this morning broadcast the voice of a 'Pentagon official' who explained that the maniac who murdered all those people at the Washington Navy Yard was not able to just walk in with a shotgun and begin blasting away because of the government’s asinine gun-free-zone-on-military-bases policy, or its grotesquely inept 'security' policies, but because of 'budget cuts.' It is you stingy, selfish taxpayers who are at fault here for not paying enough taxes. Shame on you. How much more blood will be on your hands?" Continue reading →

The Purpose of Government is to Exploit — and Exacerbate — a Crisis

"[..] A similarly skewed set of priorities was displayed in the official response to the killing spree at the Washington Navy Yard. A SWAT team from the Capitol Police was dispatched in response to the shooting – but was reportedly ordered to stand down, rather than intervene in an attempt to save the victims. Twelve people were killed before the shooter was stopped. There are roughly 200 SWAT deployments each day in this country – almost none of which involve the protection of innocent people. Apparently, SWAT teams are reserved for low-risk drug raids and killing 107-year-old men armed with pistols, rather than for responding to actual danger." Continue reading →

Media Buries Psychiatric Drug Connection to Navy Shooter

"Alexis 'had been treated since August by the Veterans Administration for his mental problems.' Alexis also suffered from PTSD, blackouts and anger issues – all of which are treated with SSRI drugs. The most common form of treatment for PTSD is Paroxetine, which is listed as the number 3 top violence-causing drug by the Institute for Safe Medication Practices (ISMP). Despite it being reported that prescription drugs were found in the apartment of ‘Batman’ shooter James Holmes days after the Aurora massacre, it took nine months to find out exactly what those drugs were. Like Columbine killer Eric Harris, Holmes had been taking Zoloft, another SSRI drug linked with violent outbursts." Continue reading →

U.S. missed ‘red flags’ about gunman

"The security clearances issued by the government are under intense scrutiny as the gunman, 34-year-old Aaron Alexis, had a valid pass that enabled him to enter the sprawling Navy Yard, located blocks from Congress. Alexis had a security clearance despite a record of misconduct in the Navy and run-ins with the law, including two shooting incidents and a Rhode Island police report showing he had severe delusions. The 10-year security clearance, which was granted during his stint as a sailor from 2007-2011, remained valid once he left the service under an honorable discharge, according to the Navy."
