Aaron Alexis, the 34-year-old suspect in Monday's shooting rampage at the Washington Navy Yard, had "secret" clearance and was assigned to start working there as a civilian contractor with a military-issued ID card, his firm's CEO told Reuters.

"He did have a secret clearance. And he did have a CAC (common access card)," said Thomas Hoshko, CEO of "The Experts," which was helping service the Navy, Marine Corps intranet as a subcontractor for a Hewlett-Packard Enterprise Services contract.

You’re right. One hates to bring race into this, but does anyone really believe that a white guy with that kind of baggage would have been cleared?

No one in authority seems to be responsible. Ever.

as we all know asking for ID is racist

The fact that the guy had any ID at all should have raised a flag. Eric Holder says minorities can't get ID....

This is beyond ridiculous.

Alexis had previously worked for The Experts in Japan from September 2012 to January 2013, he said.

"We had just recently re-hired him. Another background investigation was re-run and cleared through the defense security service in July 2013," Hoshko said.

Hoshko said he believed that Alexis' "secret" security clearance dated back to 2007.

The Navy said Alexis enlisted as a full-time Navy reservist in May 2007. He was discharged in 2011 after a series of misconduct issues, a Navy official said.

Another celebration of diversity by the affirmative action advocates in the government.

People should lighten up on the NSA. They're too busy checking our emails and phone records to worry about national security anymore.

Have you noticed how often a setback for the gun grabbers is quickly followed by some horrific event like this?
