“President Obama and most democrats represent and are working for the betterment of our country and ALL Americans. Republicans just cater to rich and influential benefactors!”  

So why did Obama remove access to the White House for the general public in March but still entertained lobbyist? So who is really catering to rich and influential benefactors! These broad statements are just parroting the party line. I wish more people would educate themselves on what's really going on in Washington and not just repeat what they hear! Democrats and Republicans alike! These politicians, all of them are only thinking of staying in power and then catering to whoever can help them achieve that! You say, “President Obama and most democrats represent and are working for the betterment of our country and ALL Americans.” Does that include NRA Members, Pro Life Americans? What about Americans who for whatever reason don’t support gay rights (whatever that means!)? How about Americans who think Global Warming is a shame? And let’s not forget Americans who are fundamental Christians! Once the president is elected he or she should represent ALL Americans and try to bring everyone together through compromise and respecting everyone’s opinion! Obama’s approach is his way or the highway! If he doesn’t agree with a law he ignores it or goes around it like he has done with immigration! He can’t get the American people to support his plan to provide amnesty to the 20 million ILLEGAL aliens in our country! So he through executive order changes policy which tells his ICE agents NOT to arrest and deport most of the illegals currently here! Thus providing them amnesty! Politicians today are like magicians and used car dealers. They work on illusion and bait and switch! Using smoke and mirrors and always selling you the upgrade you/we cannot afford! Most Americans today can tell you all about American Idol or Real Housewives from wherever then they can tell you who their representatives in congress are! The United States use to be the best country in the world, it isn’t any longer! We don’t have the best bridges or highway infrastructure, the best railway systems, the best education system, or the best skyscrapers, and so on and so on! We used to be a country that had faith in a God that helped us though wars and depressions!  Whether you believed in the Bible or the Torah, they had good guidelines to live by! The Ten Commandments were pretty simple! But we threw them out and have turned on  the Bible and the Torah! What we are using to today to drive our country is unknown to me! If we are not careful we may all be living under Sharia law because these people are zealots and we no longer have the backbone to stop them! Let’s  pray for our grandchildren and the children of our grandchildren because they way we are going they will probably be living in a third world country that had fallen apart both physically and spiritually!

Gunman's Path to DC Emerges, but Questions Remain

Gunman's Path to DC Emerges, but Questions Remain

WASHINGTON September 18, 2013 (AP)

By ERIC TUCKER Associated Press  

“Through a wall at his Rhode Island hotel, Aaron Alexis could hear them — voices harassing him, wanting to harm him. He couldn't sleep. He believed people were following him, using a microwave machine to send vibrations to his body. He changed hotels once, then again. But he called police and told them he couldn't get away from the voices.

On Aug. 7, police alerted officials at the Newport Naval Station about the naval defense contractor's call. But officers didn't hear from him again.”

I don’t understand why he wasn’t stripped of all his access to the building immediately?! Political correctness gone wild?

“ ………. as the workweek dawned, Alexis entered the sprawling Washington Navy Yard, a 41-acre labyrinth of buildings protected by armed guards and metal detectors where employees must show IDs to get past doors and gates. Authorities believe he drove a rental car there.

He was equipped with his pass for base access — and the shotgun. Within minutes, it would create mayhem.”

Where were the ARMED GUARDS? How did he get through the METAL DETECTORS? Was he exempt for some reason? How come no one saw him carrying a shotgun from the parking lot then into the building, here again where were the ARMED GUARDS!?  

“Trained tactical officers arrived, bursting through the building within seven minutes of the first 911 call, and Alexis shot at them, too.” 

Here again where were the ARMED GUARDS who were already in the building? Were they not allowed to fire their weapons? Are where they off hiding somewhere? Trained Tactical Officers arrived in SEVEN MINUTES, you can kill a lot of people in seven minutes! How come heavily armed and trained officers could not bring done one long gunman? Couldn’t they shoot straight? This was a FUBR! 

“Fire alarms blared, and officers had a hard time hearing one another…….!” 

This is a lousy excuse for them not doing their jobs! These are supposed to be a HIGHLY TRAIND Tactical Team!?  

“Once inside, Alexis picked a handgun off an officer and, armed with two weapons, terrorized the building's occupants.” 

Was the officer wounded or dead? Was he/she totally by themselves? Were there no other officers in the vicinity? This needs to be explained? 

“The FBI, which launched a nationwide active shooter training program for local law enforcement after last December's Connecticut elementary school massacre, says the average mass shooting is over within minutes and often ends once police arrive” 

The FBI better review this training program if these teams couldn’t isolate and take this guy down faster than they did???? OH, that’s right they couldn’t hear each other because of the fire alarm! GEEEEZ! 

“Twelve victims died — a body count that police say could have been much higher, even after they determined that the gunman had worked alone. Eight were injured, with all expected to survive.” 

Twelve victims died and eight were wounded, the body count could have been much lower if the VICTIMS were able to carry guns to protect themselves! OH, here again I forgot Washington D.C. has some of the strictest gun laws in the country which lets the bad guys be armed and innocent citizens go unarmed to be preyed upon! Let’s think about a lion chasing a water buffalo and the buffalo has his hoofs and horns to protect itself which they use efficiently and effectively! Gun control is like taking away the buffalo’s horns and hoofs which in their logic would make the African plains much safer for everyone! Especially for the lions! What do you think!? 

"What caused this individual to kill so many innocent men and women? He was crazy!  How did he carry out and plan this attack? There was no plan, he just went to work and by passed the metal detectors and the armed guards and then shot people! How did he get access to the weapons? What could have been done to prevent this tragedy?  This is a stupid question! Make everyone use the metal detectors, train your armed guards how to isolate and take out these nut balls! And most importantly, whether anyone else aided or assisted him either wittingly or unwittingly in this tragedy?" No one assisted him! 

Of course every gun control advocate will be on all the news shows blaming the gun! Where the problem was obvious! Make sure you use the existing security procedures! Some of the questions that need to be answered are how did this guy walk from the parking lot to the offices with a shotgun and not be noticed by anyone?? How did he get though the metal detectors? And does this building really have armed guards and where were they? Or was the security personnel just lowly paid watchman with radios?

THIS SHOULD HAVE NEVER HAPPENED FOR GOD’s SAKE! OH! I FORGOT AGAIN THAT GOD IS NOT ALLOWED ON OR IN A FEDERAL FACILITY!!!!
