Confusing states?

Not surprising. I reside in Alabama but live in a state of confusion.

Just got word thru the grapevine that Alexis’ work had taken him to the Navy’s NUWC facility in Newport, RI before DC.

Fox just reported he’d been hearing voices.

So who ordered his medications? VA?

I cannot figure this out. One could almost conclude we are dealing with two different people; one that lived in Ft. Worth, with run-ins with police in TX, GA, WA, and RI. Meanwhile, he was a government contractor previously working in Japan, spent a year in Thailand and was working as a waiter for Mr. Happy Bowl.

Now anonymous US officials say Alexis received an honorable discharge reversing earlier reports of a dishonorable discharge for insubordination. He was addicted to video games, a heavy drinker, and was hearing voices, yet twice was cleared for secret clearance.

Family had not seen him in five years. There was no AR-15, but a shotgun and two handguns. Two persons of interest were subsequently cleared ... what is to be believed?

Is MSM purposely being feed misinformation to create a narrative, or coverup? Exactly what was his contract job?

Good questions! Also, we were first told that he used Rollie Chance’s ID to get in facility, then told it was mistake because that ID had been found near his body, then we are told today that he used his own ID to get in to facility!!

Where is Rollie Chance? Why was his ID there to begin with? I read he was retired. We also read that his family said he was receiving mental health services , yet they had not seen him in 5 years???

At this point I am actually wondering if he was the shooter at all!

Greta gets his military records:

Information from Aaron Alexis’ military records – click to read
Information sent to me by FNC Justin Fishel:

Fox News has exclusively obtained Aaron Alexis’ military records.

Among the most interesting information is the positive evaluations he often received from his superiors.

In an evaluation dated Spring of 2008, his immediate supervisor wrote:

-AEAN Alexis has been onboard a short time and has established himself as a “get-it-done” addition to the work center. Possesses unlimited potential and can become a valuable asset to the command with the proper guidance and self-discipline.”

-Talented technician. Meticulously completed over 20 MAFS, including four EOC-coded discrepancies, directly contributing to his exceptional mission readiness of the command

-Eager trainee

-Community minded. Dedicated over 10 hours of off-duty time to the Atlanta Food Bank distributing food to needy individuals in the metro Atlanta area

The Spring evaluation concludes by checking a box that says “must promote.”

In the Fall of ’09 Alexis received more positive praise:

-Proven technician

-Motivated

-Essential Team Member

The evaluation similarly concludes that “he is progressing well and recommended for advancement to AE2.”

It’s not until and evaluation in Spring of 2009 that Alexis gets his first negative review. The review is based on a punishment and reduction in rank he received in August 2008 when he missed a day of work after he was arrested and thrown in jail in Atlanta for “disorderly behavior.”

The evaluation reads:

AEAA Alexis has had a severe lapse in judgment on a number of occasions, and has been counseled several times for inappropriate conduct.

it goes on to say he was “awarded Non Judicial Punishment in July on 2009.” That is a reference to his reduction in rank and forfeiture of half his pay for two months.

Later that year, though, Alexis appealed the punishment and in December the Navy granted his appeal, reinstated his rank and paid back the money he lost. The violation was essentially expunged from his record, one Navy official said.

So by his next review in February of 2010 he was back to getting high marks.

-Team player. Highly motivated technician, an asset to the Avionic Division and Aircraft Maintenance Efforts.

-Motivated Sailor

-AE3 Alexis continues to displays (sic) great strides and a determination to excel. A future key asset to the Command’s continued mission success. On track for AE2!

March 2011:

-A competent mechanic who possesses the potential to achieve great things.

-AE3 Alexis will be a valuable asset to any civilian organization.

Yeah, what's up with Rollie Chance? Was NBC first to report?

I've been away most the day, any idea if witnesses have been forced to sign non-disclosure statements. Last I heard buses enroute for transportation to another location.

If same man, he appears more troubled than Alexis. I read in a couple of reports that Rollie had been on administrative leave for over a year too.

Sounds like the could have met in “group”
Krauthammer was on O’Really. Said he had contacted police in RI reporting people talking so he couldn’t sleep. K said typical of paranoid schizophrenia That usually set in during late teens or twenties unless drug or alchohol induced. The fact his family had not seem him for five years is consistant. Usually they are unable to hold down a job. Know of two that the navy sent home at the first sign. So were they using his disability or did they help create it?

Mad scientist syndrome?

He is a bit too old for onset of schizophrenia and a bit too young for alcohol psychosis I would think. Also looks like he was employed most of time. Who knows though! I wish I did not distrust my government so much or I would just chalk it up to another crazy. It just doesn’t make sense. Something is off. Media doesn’t help. They never ask the logical questions...like why was Rollie Chance’s ID next to his dead body when Chance had been on administrative leave for a year. ???

I am not sure if you were listening to Glenn Beck today but in the first hour he had a producer tell about his visits to the Happy Bowl. He remembered the perp and said he was a normal person. What was very interesting was the perp would talk to them about shooter video games. He said he was obsessed played up to 16 hours a day. Told them about the new games and how he loved them,

The shooter in mass also played these games along with the Az shooter. I am doing some digging on some of these games. I found one that gave points for killing unarmed people and the most points you could get was to then kill yourself. They are sick.

The mainstream media is eager to have another one-sided discussion about gun control in the wake of Monday’s Navy Yard shooting.
One fact quickly emerged from the biography of the man who killed 13 people in Washington, D.C., and it’s likely to stoke a renewed conversation about how much entertainment factors into mass shootings.
The Washington Navy Yard gunman Aaron Alexis played violent video games including Call of Duty for up to 16 hours at a time and friends believe it could have pushed him towards becoming a mass murderer.
The role action-packed video games like Call of Duty play in violent crimes surfaces in the early hours of most shooting episodes.
This time, the person who apparently did the shooting has a clear record of embracing these games.

It is about time that the ‘entertainment’ industry gets some of the heat. Some of these games sound sick! Let us know what you find out. I do think some of these gamers immersed in such sickness can lose their humanity.
