(Apr. 10, 2023) — Once again, our country is deeply saddened by the wanton slaughter of innocent and defenseless school children.  Once again, we’re hearing the emotional cries from the misinformed and uninformed blaming the lack of adequate gun control for the carnage.  Once again, we’re sickened by those feckless politicians who use the horror for political gain.   

Any honest-thinking person knows full-well that a gun is an inanimate object and has never killed anyone.  People kill; we know by viewing the FBI’s website who the killers are in general categories and their weapons of choice.  We also know, with a few exceptions, the category in which the assassins of the innocent fall.

Since the 1960s Texas Tower massacre through last week, every single case of wanton slaughter (two exceptions, one in CA and one in FL, both inspired by terrorists) were committed by persons suffering with mental disorders.  In every single instance, the troubled person was known to be a danger by family members, fellow workers, fellow students, school administrators, local police and in one case, Parkland, by the FBI.  Yet in each case, the troubled person was allowed to own guns that they used to slaughter the innocent.  

Sadly, this horror will continue to be repeated over and over again until such time as our elected legislators address the matter directly by crafting legislation to keep guns away from the mentally ill and to charge those helping the mentally ill obtain guns with a felony.

I have watched the shootings in this Country for decades now and my view is that the CIA and their civilian psychiatrists/psychologists are choreographing the killings. Just like with the Agency’s Operation Mockingbird where they co-oped the MSM to shape society’s mindset, the Agency has on contract psychiatrists/psychiatrists on payroll working in the civilian medical community to shape society on the ‘gun control’ issue. Note how the gun control mantra has seemingly been pre-cocked to launch after each of these episodes. Most if not all the shooters are mentally challenged and seek ‘counseling’. Little do they know that some will fall into the hands of CIA-contracted head shrinks. The mentally disturbed individuals make perfect candidates for programming to conduct hari-kari. Most people would be shocked if they knew what these doctors can do with hypnosis and mind programming, especially with vulnerable individuals.
