Mass Shootings

[JEEP]

Just reading Jim Stone's writing, he comes across as a juvenile sensationalist, like Alex Jones on steroids. But aside from that, a few things to consider about the Connor Betts thing. The obituary, assuming it is genuine, says this man died when he was 22. That would make him 27 today. Articles say the Dayton shooter was 24, 3 years younger, also that the shooter was from Bellbrook, not Hartford. Also the names of the parents are different - Moira and Steve, not Kathleen and Robert.

For sure Jim Stone's website rates low on the reliability scale and the info came from godlikeproductions (which has a very negative history here) but was presumedly pulled from Legacy.com where the obit is located. But it is more than strange that the Garlic shooter looks like the first pic of the El Paso shooter and the second pic of the El Paso shooter looks eerily similar to a deceased 22 year old (who also had a sister named Megan) who has the same name as the now dead Dayton shooter. Hard not to think the original pic of the El Paso shooter looks less like the second one presented than does the obituary pic of Connor D. Betts.

This anomoly appears to be getting legs as other sites are also making note of this odd coincidence of the two Betts.

Here's more on Patrick Crusius' father:

Follow The Dots: MKUltra & The El Paso Shooting
By Kurt Nimmo - August 6, 2019

It takes about five minutes of research to connect Patrick Crusius to the CIA and its notorious MKUltra mind control program.

John Bryan Crusius is Patrick’s father. He is a counselor involved in “Infused Being Therapy” in Dallas, Texas. He specializes in trauma and PTSD. Crusius’ web page notes he worked for the Timberlawn Mental Health System in Dallas.

Timberlawn closed down in early 2018. The psychiatric hospital was investigated for patient abuse, including rape. Timberlawn is owned by Universal Health Services, a Fortune 500 corporation in the hospital management business.

In 2016, Buzzfeed ran an expose showing the corporation is responsible for a number of questionable practices at its nationwide facilities. In addition to accusations UHS defrauded Medicare, the report lists a number of other serious violations, including holding patients solely for financial gain.

The FBI and DoD teamed up to investigate billings to Tricare, the insurance plan for active military and their families.

“Concerned by the use of psychotropic drugs on military personnel and veterans, [Citizens Commission on Human Rights International]’s complaints noted that UHS developed a Patriot Support Program, providing treatment for active dutymembers in the Armed Forces. Veterans and their families are also treated in UHS behavioral facilities.”

Researchers at Yale School of Medicine reported in the American Journal of Geriatric Psychiatry that 30% of veterans prescribed psychotropic drugs had not been diagnosed with a mental health problem.

The military psychiatrists and physicians continue to hand out psychotropic medications like candy to active duty soldiers and veterans with or without a diagnosis of a “mental health problem.” The drug companies continue to ignore off-label use of their drugs and are glad the military co-operates in promoting them. Neither group confronts the clear evidence linking increased psychotropic drug use in the military with the increase in suicide and violent murders committed by our soldiers.

On April 30, 2007, The Massachusetts Daily Collegian announced the University of Massachusetts hosted a lecture by Colin A. Ross.

The founder and president of the Colin A. Ross Institute for Psychological Trauma, Ross is well-known for treating patients for multiple personality disorder and associated trauma disorders, including depression, self-mutilation and suicide at Timberlawn Mental Health System of Dallas, Texas.

During an interview with The Higherside Chats podcast, the Canadian academic psychiatrist talked about taking up residency in Texas “that became the gateway to his involvement in the study of Satanic cults, and the first-hand accounts from patients detailing their victimization through military intelligence testing programs.” Ross began investigating Project Bluebird, Project Artichoke, MK Search, and Project MKOFTEN.

Ross describes his previous interactions with Sydney Gottlieb. Notoriously accredited with spearheading the CIA’s efforts to control the human mind, Gottlieb took part in numerous military intelligence experiments, from using LSD on unsuspecting Americans, to leading the charge on MK ULTRA.

In 1960, Gottlieb worked with the Eisenhower administration on a plot to overthrow and discredit Fidel Castro. The CIA under Richard Bissell asked Gottlieb to come up with a plan to make Castro unpopular with the Cuban people. “Plans included a scheme to spray a television studio in which he was about to appear with a hallucinogenic drug (LSD) and contaminating his shoes with thallium which they believed would cause the hair in his beard to fall out,” writes John Simkin.

Back in 1999 on Gottlieb’s death, The New York Times wrote

Friends and enemies alike say Mr. Gottlieb was a kind of genius, striving to explore the frontiers of the human mind for his country, while searching for religious and spiritual meaning in his life. But he will always be remembered as the Government chemist who dosed Americans with psychedelics in the name of national security, the man who brought LSD to the C.I.A.

“Within Technical Services MK-ULTRA projects came under the control of the Chemical Division, headed from 1951 to 1956 by Dr. Sidney Gottlieb, a New York Jew who received his doctorate in chemistry from California Tech. Born with a clubfoot and afflicted with a severe stammer, Gottlieb pushed himself with unremitting intensity,” write Jeffrey St. Clair and Alexander Cockburn.

Gottlieb himself said that the creation of MK-ULTRA was inspired by reports of mind-control work in the Soviet Union and China. He defined the mission as an investigation into how individual behavior could be “altered through covert means.” He gave this description in 1977 during the Kennedy hearings, testifying via remote speaker from another room. “It was felt to be mandatory,” Gottlieb went on, “and of the utmost urgency for our intelligence organization to establish what was possible in this field.”

Let’s summarize. The father of the accused El Paso shooter, John Bryan Crusius, worked with Colin A. Ross at the Timberlawn Mental Health System in Dallas. Ross is said to have shared a relationship with Sydney Gottlieb, the father of trauma-based CIA MKUltra LSD mind-control experiments, including brainwashing Manchurian candidates for assassination operations.

Patrick Crusius is three degrees removed from the CIA and its mind control program. Is this a coincidence? I don’t think so. FDR supposedly said, “In politics, nothing happens by accident. If it happens, you can bet it was planned that way,” and despite a problem attributing this quote to Roosevelt, it is absolutely true.

Mass shootings are highly political. I don’t believe the El Paso shooting on the heels of the FBI declaring white supremacy a top domestic terror threat (along with conspiracy theories) is a coincidence. Most of these shootings are classic problem-reaction-solution events. The solution being restrictive firearms laws contrary to the principle of the Second Amendment and the evolution of new enemies considered a threat to the state.

Certainly, these three shootings are achieving their aim of advancing gun control/confiscation of guns, plus moving the Jeffrey Epstein potential bombshell revelations - along with calls to reopen 911 investigation - off the purposely muddled minds of the public.

Last but not least, what's the deal with the Dayton victims' shoes all gathered together? I can't figure why their shoes would have been removed and left behind like this - is someone trying to make a psychological connection to the Holocaust?

Maybe these violence episodes are directed at children. Schools coming up and people are doing their back to school shopping, wondering how schools going to be... And some gun violence, combined with governmental 'rescue' step in and make things better.

I say this because: who believes the narrative about these shootings? Not very many. And so if every instance of violence and consequential political moves amount to nothing, what purpose does it serve?

Well, it isn't directed at adults... It is to condition the children. And so they are being raised and educated to worship the state that gives them safety and security from your fellow citizens. It is remedial enforcement of anti-social state worship. And it happens under our noses because we think when we send kids off to school, they are being educated, but moreso are being indoctrinated into cellularized individuated cogs under a premise of being free and liberated. But the only freedom offered is 'free from violence' and if you want peace, you must turn to the government for it. According to their teaching, we are violent and non-cooperative as a natural trait. But that is a falsehood they perpetrate by conducting these terrorist acts. Only through them can we have peace and security. And that is how they operate... To distract you with false flags while they use this empowerment violence gives them to condition the kids, and it doesn't matter what you think, because every generation is in the process of being phased out.

The plot thickens.

I don't think so. I don't think those are the same people.

Ross is said to have shared a relationship with Sydney Gottlieb, the father of trauma-based CIA MKUltra LSD mind-control experiments, including brainwashing Manchurian candidates for assassination operations.

I think Nimmo is barking up the wrong tree here. These are very tenuous 'connections'. We interviewed Colin Ross and know his work. There is nothing to suggest he was ever directly involved in Gottlieb's CIA work or that he had any significant professional relationship with him. Gottlieb is much older than Ross and left the CIA in 1972. Ross only really came to prominence as a therapist in the late 80s and 90s, when Gottlieb was long since retired and raising goats on a farm.

That's not to say that some form of mind programming wasn't involved in this shooting, there likely was, but I think such techniques have evolved well past the point where you need to have physical access to the dupe to do the mind messing.

YIKES!!! Conner Betts was an off-the-charts misogynist!

Connor Betts: 5 Fast Facts You Need to Know

Connor Betts, who was named by police as the body armor-wearing, masked gunman who fatally shot at least 9 people, including his own sister, in Dayton, Ohio, had shown red flags since high school, when former classmates say he drew up a hit list and was a bully.

Betts was also in a “Pornogrind” Band that, according to Vice News, “released songs about raping and killing women.” Vice called it the “extreme metal music scene.” The bands he performed in sometimes were called Menstrual Munchies and Putrid Liquid, and the songs contained vile names like “6 Ways of Female Butchery” and “Preeteen Daughter Pu$$y Slaughter,” Vice reported.

A woman he briefly dated, Caitlyn “Adelia” Johnson, told The Toledo Blade that he took her to gun ranges and showed her body camera video footage from a mass shooting, causing her to break off the relationship by text message. She also told the newspaper that Betts confided that he was bipolar and had Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder.

The tragedy left at least 27 more injured in a popular bar and restaurant district in Dayton, Ohio.

Connor Betts on the right in a screenshot from YouTube.

Betts was 24 and from Bellbrook, Ohio. He’d attended some college, and he lived with his parents and sister. Witnesses said he was wearing all black when he opened fire. Betts was killed by police, with six officers firing at least one round, and officials said the carnage might have been even worse were it not for their quick response.

Betts’ own dad weighed in on the Sandy Hook massacre on his Facebook page in 2012. “Saying that discussion about the causes of the massacre is petty is exactly wrong. Trying to understand the causes of this tragedy is the only way to keep it from happening again. And keeping all the other children safe from this kind of crazy is the goal. How many more children have to die before we can have a rational discussion about this?” Steve Betts wrote.

[...]

[...]Former high school classmates took to Twitter and Facebook to describe Betts as a bully who liked to scare women.

According to Daily Beast, Betts’ sister, Megan, 22, and an unidentified male “were found shot” near the mass shooting scene. Betts arrived in the Oregon District with his sister and her “companion,” before the shooting, police said. At some point prior to the shooting they separated. Betts’ sister was not the first victim of the shooting, but was one of the initial victims. Police have not said if he was targeting his sister. Her companion was wounded, but not killed, and has talked to police, authorities said.

The shooter in the Dayton, Ohio mass shooting was named by CBS News as Connor Betts.

Excerpts from another article:

There were serious red flags that all was not well with Connor Betts. That news has come from former high school classmates, who have taken to Facebook, Twitter and the news media to claim that Betts had a hit list in high school and it wasn’t taken seriously enough.

“This isn’t a mystery to me,” one of Betts’ classmates told the Dayton Daily News. “I’m furious.” Spencer Brickler, a classmate of Betts’, told CNN that he was told his sister was on the hit list, and another classmate said the list had two columns, a kill list and rape list."

It’s not clear what his parents did in response to that, and the school system isn’t saying much, either, but classmates painted Connor Betts as a bully who mistreated women. Chenoa Sandoval wrote on Facebook, “Before the Media portrays this full grown man as an innocent kid who was damaged in high school due to bullying I want to set the record straight right now. Connor Betts had a history of serious harrassment (sic) towards fellow female students. Some of which were my friends or siblings of friends. He had a notebook with detailed information on how he wanted to hurt fellow female students.”

Betts was also in a “Pornogrind” Band that, according to Vice News, “released songs about raping and killing women.” Vice called it the “extreme metal music scene.” The bands he performed in sometimes were called Menstrual Munchies and Putrid Liquid, and the songs contained vile names like “6 Ways of Female Butchery” and “Preeteen Daughter Pu$$y Slaughter,” Vice reported.

Connor Betts' Family: 5 Fast Facts You Need to Know

Connor Betts' family includes mother Moira Betts and father Stephen Betts. He killed his own sister Megan Betts, police say.

From another article:
"Jesse Creekbaum, who was in the “pornogrind” scene with Betts said to Vice that he considered the music a joke, but now worries “how much of this was like real life for him (Betts)?” You can see some of the extremely disturbing music here. He described Betts to Vice as an emotionally withdrawn loner."

According to online records, Connor Betts ran track at Bellbrook High School. Daily Beast reported that he lived with his parents and sister.

Demoy Howell told the Dayton Daily News that Betts was in the Junior ROTC program in high school, and the newspaper also reported that he was a lead in “A Midsummer Night’s Dream.” However, there was a dark side. A classmate told the Daily News that Betts had “fantasized about tying her up and slitting her throat” and he told her he was scared he had those thoughts. She said she was included on a hit list, but her concerns weren’t taken seriously when she reported them.

Former high school classmates described him as a misogynistic bully. “I went to high school with the shooter. He made a hit list of fellow students and was arrested. Somehow he was still able to legally purchase a gun, which he used to kill at least 9 people. Something needs to be done,” wrote one.

DO NOT believe the media when they tell you that the shooter in Dayton was “bullied”. He was a violent misogynist.

Chenoa Sandoval wrote on Facebook, “Before the Media portrays this full grown man as an innocent kid who was damaged in high school due to bullying I want to set the record straight right now. Connor Betts had a history of serious harrassment towards fellow female students. Some of which were my friends or siblings of friends. He had a notebook with detailed information on how he wanted to hurt fellow female students.”

A woman named Aubrey Williams wrote, “He loved scaring people. He thought it was funny and got off on it. He scared my sister so bad once, I think he held her in his car against her will. She started crying and he laughed at her. He was sick.” Another wrote, “wasnt our responsibility!! We WERE just kids!! It should not be a kids job to sfop a killer!! People did report him!!”

[...]

The woman he briefly dated also told The Toledo Blade that Betts had bragged that he knew a lot about mass shootings. She shared a text message exchange with the newspaper, in which she asked, “Do you know tragedies from every city?”

“A fair bit of them! :D [smiley face],” he responded. She told the newspaper he was charming and outgoing, but said he told her he had put a gun in his mouth before and he once called her drunk and said he wanted “to hurt a bunch of people.”

[...]

Dayton 24/7 Now spoke to classmates of Betts who alleged that “Betts was supposed to write a letter of apology to the people on the list. After being expelled, Betts was allowed back to school.” The site reported that Betts was not described as a loner. This site says the school incident occurred when people “found a notebook where he reportedly wrote a list of people who he wanted to rape, kill and skin their bodies.”

A former classmate told CNN the list was divided into a “kill list” for boys and a “rape list” for girls. Another classmate told CNN: “He loved to look at you and pretend to shoot with guns, guns with his hands.”

According to the Dayton Daily News, Betts “didn’t have a violent criminal background.” He had a couple speeding tickets in Centerville and no concealed weapon permit, the newspaper reported.

[...]

The Dayton Daily News reported that the shooter also had a very old MySpace account that contained “notebook sketches showing odd phrases handwritten in screamo music-style font” and contained captions saying things like: “All Shall Be Annihilated,” “Bloodlust,” “Absolute Carnage,” and “Bloody Massacre.”

A dangerously disturbed person! Wonder if he was on psych meds for bipolar and OCD? No mention of any counseling. Thankfully, police on hand prevented what most likely would have been an incredible massacre.

OK, so there is a movement to disarm us, and it is becoming apparent that while they pretend to act in the interest of safety and security, they are manufacturing these situations.

And so since there is resistance, they perpetuate and channel their agenda onto the children.

But still, humans are inherently decent. And though you can make them move one way or another they will be the same essential people, and so whatever goal they strive for is in futility, because it is an attempt to change our nature.

So, maybe these people have high ideals, but the manner which they go about trying to mold us guarantees failure.

You know those master plans about 3 world wars, or the Protocols of Zion... Those scenarios where they successfully got us to kill each other... In a internet age cannot happen, and so they are banging their heads against a wall, and stuck in a repeating cycle, because - in their schemes - their plans should work.

So, maybe these would-be puppet masters are dealing with something that isn't included in the literature, and are going: 'Ok, this time we'll do it like that... then humanity will erupt in fire!... Moo-hoo-ha-ha-ha!'

So, though the death tolls are horrible, you can look at it as: compared to what they want ultimately, they are limited and constrained in their desires, and will go nuts little by little, and life goes on for humanity.

Boy thrown from London’s Tate Modern is French tourist visiting UK

French boy thrown from London gallery suffered brain bleed and spine injuries, court told

A teenager appeared in court on Tuesday charged with attempted murder after a six-year-old French boy was reportedly thrown from a 10th-floor viewing platform at the Tate Modern art gallery in central London.

The 17-year-old male, who cannot be named for legal reasons, was arrested on Sunday shortly after the boy, who was visiting London with his family, was found on a fifth floor roof.

Bromley Youth Court was told the boy had sustained a bleed on the brain and fractures to his spine, legs and arms, Sky News reported. He is in a stable but critical condition in hospital.

Police said it was being treated as an isolated incident and that there was no link between the boy and the 17-year-old.

The teenager was remanded in custody until Thursday when he is due to appear before London’s Old Bailey court.

Interesting to hear her describe his "uncontrollable urges" to hurt people. One doesn't need to be created by Greenbaum doctors in a psychiatric ward in order to have those kinds of feelings created within the susceptible ones IMO.

There's been a lot of divisive rhetoric on Twitter around these shootings. I keep hopping around and pointing out on posts about the shootings and mentioning the possibility that they aren't what they seem. Little jabs at the hydra of lies and misinfo on Twitter and elsewhere online feel meaningful to me.

Love referencing the history of the FBI handling terrorists. Just think of how hard they must work to keep things covered up and some nobody on Twitter comes along and pokes holes in their near-perfectly manufactured terror with allusions to what they're doing. The comments are getting handfuls of likes, so there's definitely folks out there thinking about these events skeptically.

Granted, it's likely not all of these events are being directly handled by human agencies. However, when the FBI takes over an investigation (like in El Paso) it's an indicator that adds weight to that hypothesis in that particular case.

That's one of the entrances to Dillard's. People ran there from the Walmart, and ABC reported that police directed them first to JC Penny, and then outside. Far as I can tell, there were no reports of injuries taking place in Dillard's. Guy on the right looks like SWAT, guy on the left looks like he's wearing what some of the cops on the scene were wearing (blue t-shirt, black bulletproof vest, khaki cargo pants). You can see them in this video:

So I'm guessing these were cops clearing the store after the shootings had taken place.

Man attempted to attack multiple people with a knife in busy Sydney streets. Reports from the scene claim he looked mentally ill and he was screaming "Allahu Akbar", although police later say they found a USB on his person with white supremacy material... He stabbed one woman in the back (and a man can be heard in one of the Twitter video's stating this). He was taken down by a number of citizens who held a milk crate over his face whilst waiting for police to arrive. Also that day a woman's body was found in an apartment which may or may not be related to the incident.

Warning: The Twitter videos contain strong language.

Knife attack by man screaming "Allahu akbar" in Sydney, Australia



CBS
Tue, 13 Aug 2019 04:27 UTC







Australian police and witnesses said a knife-wielding man yelling "Allahu akbar," or "God is great," attempted to stab several people in downtown Sydney on Tuesday before being arrested. At least one woman was brought to a hospital.

Police said later that "all the evidence points to" a man with mental health issues lashing out, but they would not rule out any potential motives as the investigation was still at an early stage. Given the information they had, however, they said the incident was not being classed as terrorism and that the suspect was believed to have acted alone.

Witnesses say the man, wielding a long knife, tried to stab multiple people near a busy intersection. New South Wales state police said in a statement that the man was caught and the woman was in stable condition.

Not far away, the body of a woman believed to have been an acquaintance of the detained suspect was found in a home.

A witness told reporters the man was screaming comments about religion before yelling to police that he wanted to be shot. Police said he used the Arabic phrase "Allahu akbar." However, police later said the man also had in his possession a thumbnail USB drive containing information related to white supremacy.

Asked by a reporter whether the conflicting religious references suggested to him a mental health problem at the root of the crime, New South Wales Police Commissioner Michael Fuller said, "certainly all the evidence points to that" at this stage of the investigation.

The incident brought the central business district of Australia's biggest city to an early afternoon standstill, the Reuters news service reports.

Australian Prime Minister Scott Morrison praised members of the public who helped subdue the suspect during the attack.

Reuters quotes Police Superintendent Gavin Wood as telling reporters in Sydney the woman was stabbed in the back but her wounds weren't life-threatening and that the attack on her seemed to be unprovoked.

Knife attack at French train station leaves 1 dead & 9 wounded

A suspected knife assault near a train station in Villeurbanne, France, has left one person dead and nine wounded, according to reports. Police are said to have arrested one man.

The attack occurred on Saturday afternoon at Laurent Bonnevay station in Villeurbanne, metropolitan Lyon. Local media reported that two alleged perpetrators attacked people at random in the parking lot, with the latest tally of casualties standing at one 19-year-old dead and nine wounded.
One man has reportedly been arrested, and the presence of a second attacker remains unconfirmed by official sources.
The city’s Metro service was suspended as police descended on the scene.

Footage shared on social media purportedly shows a crowd of onlookers surrounding and subduing one of the suspects at one of the station’s elevators. Another man, seen holding a long, thin object, may also be a suspect, as one of the alleged attackers was reportedly armed with a kitchen skewer.

Police have not yet said whether they believe the incident was a terrorist attack. They have asked people nearby not to disturb their operation.

DETAILS TO FOLLOW

The Mirror (fwiw) reported that the attacker was an Afghan asylum seeker

The knifeman claimed to be from Afghanistan as he was confronted by witnesses, including four bus drivers, after the attack, Le Progres reported.

There was no indication from the authorities that it was a terror attack.
