More blood, more tears, more knee-jerk rhetoric about finding a solution for a bunch of different problems.
Those who knew Aaron Alexis -- the shooter who killed 12 and injured eight more at the Washington Navy Yard this week -- said he was a quiet, shy man.

It looks like he was honorably discharged.
The story has changed. Again.
In Obama’s America? How dare you!!
There was only one individual in all of history who was “always accurate” and I don’t think he uses the nickname “Gondring” on FR. Do you?
FOX has a copy of his Military record. Glowing reviews. Was busted from E3 to E2 over being missing, but was reinstated on appeal due to his being in jail for accidentally firing his firearm. Glowing reviews resume. Honorable discharge.
No banning AR15s after this??
Or at a gun store.
“Another day, another mass shooting in America.”
Stopped reading as soon as I saw that line of bullcrap.
Probsbly had them reissue the story so his son wouldn’t look bad and lent them some of his forgery templates to assist...
Is that gobeldy-speak for “medical?”
Maybe i’m missing something but the reports are saying he moved to DC just one month ago and within the month got a job that gave him access to the Navy shipyard and a security clearance? Does Lee Harvey Oswald getting a job at the Book Depository sound familiar?
From the article:
“With his honorable discharge, Alexis apparently was issued a government contractor access card that would have allowed him into the Navy Yard and other military installations, said Thomas Hoshko, chief executive of The Experts, a Hewlett-Packard subcontractor for which Alexis was working. His security clearance was updated in July.”
And
“The honorable discharge could help explain why Alexis, 34, apparently had no difficulty landing a civilian job. He moved from Fort Worth to Washington about a month ago, friends said, and was hired as an hourly tech employee for The Experts, which is updating computer systems at Navy and Marine Corps installations worldwide. He was scheduled to begin work at the Washington Navy Yard this month.”
Starting to smell a little fishy. I wonder if someone in the administration paid him big time to create a national incident that would get the knee-jerk type reaction from the public they need to move farther along on gun disarmamnt? Makes you wonder...
No, it means one didn’t quite meet the standards required by that branch of the service, had minor disciplinary, hygiene, attitude or behavioral problems, couldn’t adapt to military or naval service or is redundant.
And anyone who thinks it is, is a complete idiot.
“Outlaw” used to mean, back in merry olde England, that an egregious miscreant had been deprived of the protection of the law (by which killing him without benefit of trial was a crime in itself) and that any worthy citizen was then free to kill him in the name of the Crown.
In effect, declaring someone an outlaw made the rest of society into a posse. Made the Sheriff’s job easier.
I guess “Wanted: Dead or Alive” is the U.S. equivalent.
At least two of the dead were in IT. He “had a pass” according to presser woman. Was the floor he went to the floor where he was going work?
For a while I wondered if he was the real shooter. So far, the only person I have seen that claimed to have seen him shoot was a Major. I saw many that said they did not see the shooter because they were too busy running to take time to look.
The story is so convoluted that I don’t know what to make of it. Something reeks. Horrid reporting is probably the cause of the stench, but nothing surprises me anymore.
The elitist NWO fascists are absolutely horrified by these random mass shootings because they fear some nut could show up at one of their East Hampton cocktail parties and spray the punchbowl with evil AR-15 bullets.
