Obviously, it DOES matter what you want to post. Many are the posted comments that are later deleted based on what information was posted.
Both Lanza and Holmes (the Aurora shooter) have dads.
Holmes' dad is the man who designed a computer program that successfully exposed Barclays Bank for LIBOR fixing. Barclay's has already admitted to their part in this criminal activity and are cooperating with investigations of other banksters, and have been fined 420 million dollars.
Lanza's dad is also a LIBOR scandal whistleblower. What are the odds on 2 men blowing the whistle on a 300 trillion dollar-plus banking scam both being the fathers of serial killers? What? 300,000,000,000 to 1? (eyebrow raised)
You are perpetuating the hoax, and you have still not learned the difference between a serial killer and a mass murderer.
Please provide credible proof of a hoax, and learn the difference between the two terms I gave you.
Surely you folks have all seen videos of a second gunman being chased off school property and arrested by now.
That Lanza was a lone gunman is a lie. (eyebrow raise)
Yesterday, you stated it was the third gunman being arrested in the woods.
Which is it?
Eyebrows raised, indeed.
Will you please provide either the link to the video site, or the keywords?
I cannot find it.
I would be most interested in seeing this.
And, again, WHY wouldn't the gov't not take the easy way out and just kill the dads instead of launching an elaborate hoax to turn their sons into mass murderers?
Please present credible evidence that this is what the gov't did.
Supposition is just that: supposition.
Or vanity writing.
Which one?
La la la la da de, la la la la da di
Good afternoon banasy.
Both of the Fathers (Auroa shooter Homes and Conn shooter Adam Lanza) were set to testify in the LIBOR SCANDAL before a Senate panel. How many eyebrows would be raised if BOTH men were killed. *Enter*, the shootings, to silence the fathers. Usually the *lie* gets more and more elaborate to cover-up the previous lie.
Good afternoon, Rawr.
Yes, the beat goes on.
I am wondering which theory is the true one: that the shotters were hopelessly overmedicated and just snapped, that the shooters were overmedicated, just snapped in conjunction with one to two others in CT, that the gov't is the overlord of a vast conspiracy to silence a couple of whistleblowers, or if, in fact, there are only six degrees of separation between the world and Kevin Bacon.
Mary:
I am asking for evidence that any of this happened.
It has been asserted, but there has been no evidence other than supposition.
I have asked this several times now; there are six degrees of separation between the world and Kevin Bacon, also.
One can find a conspiracy in any scenario if one tries hard enough.
I am not saying it didn't happen, just give me some credible evidence that it did.
Again, repeating what I asked evidence for is not evidence...please supply me with credible evidence that isn't 6 degrees of Kevin Bacon.
*Both* Fathers were set to testify at the *same* hearing on the *same* subject; the LIBOR scandal
the idea that these men so widely located would be called to testify, and that each would have a son accused of mass murder defies statistics, @ bobcat (in a hat)©
Yes, Mary, you have repeated that several times, but that is not evidence, that's coincidence.
First, it was SSRI's, then it was 3 gunmen, then 2 gunmen, then it's a conspiracy to get these two men to shut up... without one shred of credible evidence.
Although it may defy statistics, your theory, without evidence, defies logic, @Mary.
Where's the video?
Mary, repeating the same thing over and over isn't evidence.
Where is the evidence?
6 degrees of separation is not EVIDENCE!
And statistical probability does not equal statistical impossibility...nor does it prove that somebody deliberately turned these kids into mass killers.
A boy was constantly nagging his father to get him a Christmas tree. Each year, the father told him, "I don't want to pay for it." At last, son finally managed to exasperate his father and he went out with his axe. Thirty minutes later, he returned with a great big Christmas tree. The son was amazed that his father returned so soon and asked, "How did you cut it down so fast?" The father replied, "Oh! It's from the tree lot." "So why did you took the axe with you?", the son asked. "Because I didn't want to pay for it.", the father replied.
Cute, Rawr!
Merry Christmas!
@ bobcat (in a hat)©, What's your take on the shooting (Auroa and Conn) with respects to the connection of both Fathers set to testify in the LIBOR scandal ?
@ Mary
Actually I can't see the connection of one young man in Colorado shooting innocents in a theatre and one on the otherside of the country in Conneticutt walking into a school and killing babies having anything to do with their repective fathers being whistleblowers and being called to testify.
What does that have to do with anything ?
@ bobcat (in a hat)© , Read my 2:47 post and you'll see
Evidence. Please back up your statements with something more than tenuous coincidences.
I am asking for evidence.
I haven't gotten any yet.
I wonder why?
