I’m sure you’ve heard by now that Parkland’s own Wesley Crusher appears to have been less than truthful about where he was during the shooting at Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School.
Either that or he has a bad memory.
Because his story has radically altered.
CBS news will be broadcasting a documentary about the “survivors” of the Parkland shooting. And in it, Wesley claims that he was home when he heard about the shooting.
Here’s Wesley’s quote from CBS News:
On the day of the shooting, I got my camera and got on my bike and road [sic] as fast as I could three miles from my house to the school to get as much video and to get as many interviews as I could because I knew that this could not be another mass shooting.
He was home?
Or does he mean that he left school, rode his bike home, then returned to school all before the police got there? Does his bike have a rocket on the back?
And if he was home, clearly he was less the truthful about being a “survivor” of a school shooting. After all, if you’re three miles away when you hear that there’s been a shooting, chances are, by the time you got to school the shooting was over. It only lasted six minutes for crying out loud.
But there’s a problem with this “Junior Reporter Rushing to the Scene” tall tale.
Because it wasn’t the story he told the day of the shooting.
As Weasel Zippers points out, in a Sun Sentinel story from the day of the shooting, Wesley’s account was radically different:
Senior David Hogg was in an AP Environmental Science class at about 2:30 p.m. at Stoneman Douglas High School when he heard a gunshot.
The fire alarm then went off for the second time that day. Students started to run out of the school. Hogg said he saw a “flood of people” running toward him.
He said students had been warned the school would hold a code red drill at some point in the future, and thought maybe that’s what was happening.
Dozens of students, including Hogg, were gathered into a tiny classroom by Ashley Kurth, a culinary instructor at the school. He praised Kurth’s actions and said “she definitely saved lives.”
Hogg, a TV production student, pulled out his video camera while on lockdown because he said he wanted people to tell their story.
“It’s horrifying,” Hogg said. “My sister talked to people yesterday that she’ll never talk to again.”
Now, if he was locked in the culinary instructor’s class, nobody would believe that she would say to him, “Yes, Wesley. You may ride your bike home and get your camera then I will let you back into this locked-down room.”
So which is it, Wesley?
Were you home that day? And were you really able to peddle your bike three miles to the school before the police even arrived there?
Or were you in Environmental Science class when you heard a gunshot then went into a locked-down room until the all-clear?
Unless he’s a Cylon and there’s more than one copy of him, it simply can’t be both.
So clearly Wesley isn’t being entirely truthful about his experience on February 14, 2018.
Now, I’m not floating a conspiracy theory. This isn’t the “he’s a 25-year-old crisis actor from California” nonsense.
These are Wesley Crusher’s own words with links to the stories in question.
I think his shifting narrative is a sign that Wesley Crusher has been less than truthful.
Look, it was only a matter of time before this scrawny little gremlin’s fifteen minutes of fame would super nova.
This is what happens when a child is shoved into the bright, glaring spotlight; he simply cannot handle it.
As I said the other day, he’s like Icarus flying too close to the sun.
Will any reporter or CNN host challenge Wesley’s shifting narrative?
My guess is no.
Instead, the news media will do their best to gloss over it and pretend that Wesley’s story isn’t falling apart like grandma’s sweater in the spin cycle.
But if his story is already unraveling, it’s only a matter of time before Wesley’s inconsistencies coupled with his vitriolic rhetoric makes him a liability for the anti-gun movement.
And when that happens, the news media won’t challenge him; they’ll simply pretend he never existed.
that pic alone will bring Trump about million more votes...keep it up jerks..
Wesley Crusher was an insufferable character on Star Trek The Next Generation, played by Wil Wheaton. Wil Wheaton now plays a lesbian talking head on PMSNBC named "Rachel Maddow."
(Some of this is /sarc)
He has a most unfortunate face......:(
.....it matches his jerk like personality
It has been confirmed that she does not work for cnn, but does carry some VIP noteworthy thing from them having to do with her Teaching job. When first came out they thought the VIP thing stood for VP of cnn. Read that earlier here somewhere today.
Sheesh...
Right to the Top!
He is one wound up tight, angry person. If you pricked him with a pin he would explode. Deliverance with a hairdo
Face worthy of a roundhouse kick.
That's what every "typical high school kid" thinks right off.
I can see that. But that's no detriment to George Wallace, who's record stands on its own.
What the HELL doesn’t some reporter as the teacher Ashley Kurtz if he was in the classroom???
Wesley Crusher meets the Gorn Queen!
Hoggs’ Tale can come totally apart and MSM will not notice.
Maybe Daddy gave him a head up of a false flag operation by the FBI?
He’s a kid who’s being manipulated. It’s clear he’s getting off on it and it’s embarassing. But he’s just a mouthy, naive 17-year-old. His parents and the media are the ones who should be criticized.

Ashley’s been too busy giving interviews so everyone knows, in case there’s any doubt at all, that she was holding her door open and every teacher should be able to make that judgement call.
And the ears are not quite pointed enough.
I don’t agree with this young man. But good gosh, can’t you focus on his statements? What he looks like is irrelevant. How old he is is irrelevant. I am astounded at your immaturity. What a pathetic comment.
