Another shooting, this time a hospital!

[neema]

Wow, this is getting really bad, really fast.

A man who opened fire Saturday at a hospital in Birmingham, in the US state of Alabama, was shot dead, police said, dpa reported.

The man shot at a police officer and two employees of the St Vincent's Hospital. Their injuries were not life-threatening, the Birmingham News reported.

The assailant was shot dead by a second police officer.

Police said they believed this was a "totally isolated incident" and that no one else was "involved with this shooter".

Really odd to make those statements this fast no?

And police apparently stopped an Oklahoma teenager from a similar school shooting on the same day as the Connecticut tragedy when a friend of his informed police of his plans:

Hours after the bloodshed at a Connecticut school, police stopped what would have been a second mass school-shooting on Friday, arresting an Oklahoma teenager plotting to kill dozens of his classmates.

Sammie Eaglebear Chavez, 18, told friends at Bartlesville High School that he wanted to lure their schoolmates and teachers to the gym and then open fire, according to officials.

He also claimed to have explosives he planned to detonate once police arrived.

A classmate overhead Chavez scheming on Thursday and cops arrested him early Friday before he could carry out his plan. A judge in the small city of Bartlesville, which lies about an hour north of Tulsa, ordered that Chavez be held on $1 million bail.

Investigators believe Chavez owned a Colt .45 handgun and had been researching how to obtain explosives and higher-powered firearms. He also frequently discussed the 1999 shootings at Columbine High school.

The motive for the plot was not immediately known. Investigators do not suspect the scheme was linked to or inspired by the shooting in Newtown, Conn., that left 20 children dead.

Jeez, they seem to want to push this gun control thing very strongly.


Added: and all this is definitely ramping up the fear factor.

Another shooting in California, luckily no one was seriously injured. The PTB are ramming things up big time! :/

What the hell.. It seems like they (government) are pushing the agenda of creating fear and disarm the american people and get more control very fast maybe because they are running out of time for some reason (new world order?) (comets?) hmmm..

 

[loreta]

Can it be that this phobia for "the end of the world" produce this type of acts? People are loosing control of themselves? A final of the times that makes people become violent? What I mean is: when you think that the End of the world is very near, are certain human beings more susceptible to react in a desperate way?

While this is happening, in Syria and Gaza the violence continue.... :(

 

[webglider]

I think that some people copy the behavior they see in the media. It doesn't surprise me that there a spate of shootings following the one in Connecticut.

Many years ago I live for several months in Costa Rica with the aim of learning Spanish. My teacher and I had a conversation concerning the influx of Americean television programs into Costa Rica and the rise in crime that he was noticing since those programs had been introduced.
I was aware, even as a child, that the behavior shown on TV was anti-social and dangerous.

I'm not saying that there is not more than meets the eye going on here, but the romanticising of violence in America may have a part in violent behavior.

I definitely think that assault weapons should be banned. I can understand people owning a gun for protection or a rifle for hunting, but why would anyone need an arsenal of guns unless they meant to use them against others on a mass scale?

Could this be the time those who are "programmed to all go off at once" are going off? When is the last time there have been this many of these incidents in this short an amount of time? Either they are losing their grip because of the "end of the world" propaganda + signs or it is part of an agenda and this could be "the big one".

I'm not sure, but I just can imagine what would be if ALL of them activate at the same time, thousands of them shooting like mad right and left. And then, the PTB having the perfect excuse to impose a completely overt totalitarian world government.

It seems like they are trying to make us afraid to go anywhere...school, the mall and now hospitals! Next it will be the grocery store

Maybe, but I'm not sure how they would do that and keep any illusion of normalcy. It would be a big-time nightmare scenario. Right now everyone is asking "What is happening with the world?!" but start talking about Manchurian Candidates as an explanation and they will shut you out. If they were everywhere you looked, grocery store, laundromat, etc. it would start to seem like the movie "They Live" or something and I'm not sure the imposed consensus reality could hold. I wonder what the minimum number/frequency of these incidents is for people to submit to totalitarian control. And I don't think it's a done deal already, as I'm sure we are all hoping it's not.

Geez. What has happened to America? did someone activate some mysterious sequences for all those mad folks to go on a killing rampage all simultaneously? God help us

God help us indeed. I just see no way to prevent these tragedies that seem to seep in on a day-to-day basis. This is not normal. This is not natural. Sometimes all you can feel is powerlessness against the monsters that control the world... or at least that the efforts put forth so far by average people are nowhere near enough... But I sincerely hope I am wrong.

This is by far coincidence... Anyone who can see, knows about psychopaths and think properly will conclude that the government is preparing the country for something in the coming months through these acts..
