Just damn Laz... I hate that he shot anyone but I especially hate that he shot an MP. How long do you think that it will be before it is determined that this was black on white or muslim terrorism?

More black mayhem presided over by dykes (and I don’t mean pliers), queers and more blacks.

Revolting. It all turns my guts.

The United States is no more.

“Something not adding up here”

Same here:

More:

While the motive of Aaron Alexis, the heavily armed gunman who shot dead at least 12 people in cold blood this morning at the Washington Navy Yard has not been revealed, speculation is growing his dismissal from the U.S. Navy for ‘misconduct’ in January 2011 may have inspired him to commit a deadly revenge.

Alexis, 34, has been revealed to have a prior arrest for letting a gun off that could have harmed his neighbor while he cleaned his own weapon at home in Fort Worth, Texas, 2010.

Despite the lack of acknowledged motive, one U.S. official has been quoted as saying Alexis was kicked out of the Navy in 2011 for ‘misconduct’ as a direct result of his gun arrest three years ago.

Law enforcement said that Alexis’ identity was confirmed by fingerprints and that he served in the U.S. Navy between May 5th, 2007 and January 31st, 2011, the date he was dismissed from the service.

He was awarded the Global War on Terrorism Service Medal and the National Defense Service Medal prior to his discharge in January 2011.

“I would bet that the AR15 will not be confirmed.”

I agree. Every MSM outlet was quick to say this morning that the guy was using an AR15, yet after all the press conferences this afternoon, there is no comment on the weapons used.

How interesting.

His first name is Aaron. You are incorrect. Alexis is his last name.

Other reports that he was an assistant mechanic at NAS in Fort Worth. How does a mechanic get a terrorism service medal? Bizarre.

(Reuters) - Aaron Alexis, the 34-year-old suspected shooter behind Monday’s rampage at the U.S. Navy Yard in Washington, received a general discharge from the Navy Reserve in 2011 after a series of misconduct issues, a Navy official said.

The official, when asked by Reuters, declined to detail the types of misconduct in Alexis’ record.

Those videos are looooong gone. Just more LEO and DA judicial discretion in allowing for a few “mistakes” also known as legalized murder and target practice for the cops.

Why didn’t the guy whose ID was stolen report it IMMEDIATELY? If he had that kind of clearance he should have reported it ASAP!

Well, right. I have a much-less cleared badge, good only for one campus and only a few buildings on it. When I dropped my badge, I reported it right away... partly because it was my duty, but also, to get the badge re-issue process restarted. The badge access was electronically suspended right away.

Aaron Alexis, the 34-year-old suspected shooter behind Monday’s rampage at the U.S. Navy Yard in Washington, was at some point a civilian contractor for the U.S. Navy in the information technology area, Navy Secretary Ray Mabus said. “At one point, he was a Navy contractor. Whether he was today, I don’t know,” Mabus told CNN.
