ATF Moves to Outlaw Shotguns

ATF to accept public comments prior to outlawing shotguns 

The Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco and Firearms is taking a rare step of allowing public comments prior to issuing a decision on a study that could result in outlawing certain types of shotguns currently available to citizens.

The ATF completed a study regarding the importability of certain shotguns. The basis for a possible ban is based on a loosely defined “Sporting Purpose” test. Using the vague definition almost all pump-action and semi-automatic shotguns could be banned as they are all capable of accepting a magazine, box or tube capable of holding more than 5 rounds. Other characteristics determined to be “military” by the ATF can also be used as a basis for a ban.

Ironically, many shotguns with “military” features are currently being used in shooting competitions held by the USPSA, IDPA and IPSC. The rules could also result in obscure regulations where an individual would be unsure if he is violating them or not.

Dudley Brown, Executive Director of Rocky Mountain Gun Owners, said if the ATF succeeds with the banning of tactical shotguns it “will be the most dangerous interpretation of the 1968 Gun Control Act ever envisioned and will outlaw thousands of perfectly legitimate home defense shotguns.”

The ATF is currently allowing public comments on the study until the end of the month. Those wishing to express concerns about the study can send an email to shotgunstudy@atf.gov

Disgraced Pedo-Priest Patting Down Passengers in Philly as TSA Supervisor






I-Team: Priest Removed From Ministry Due To Sex Abuse Allegations Now Works At PHL 

PHILADELPHIA (CBS) – The CBS 3 I-Team has learned that a Catholic priest who was removed from the ministry over sex abuse allegations now holds a sensitive security post at Philadelphia International Airport. 

The security checkpoint between Terminals D and E is a busy place where thousands of people – including lots of kids – pass through every day. But you might not believe who the I-Team observed working as a TSA supervisor at that checkpoint this week: Thomas Harkins.

 Until 2002, Harkins was a Catholic priest working at churches across South Jersey. But the Diocese of Camden removed him from ministry because it found he sexually abused two young girls. Now, in a new lawsuit, a third woman is claiming she also is one of Harkins’ victims.

Article continues at link above.  

Now in this piece the TSA is saying that they do background checks on their people, but that this persons' record is "too old" for them to uncover the details on. So I suppose if you blew up an airliner back in the 70's, they would miss that too. But we also know from this previous report, that the TSA is actually letting people work without any background check at all. Read about that here:

Kenneth, What's The Frequency?

Stumbled across this old post from my buddy Jack that he posted years ago on a conspiracy forum. Bizarre stuff:
 

I have had some really strange synchronicities in the past two days surrounding “What’s the Frequency Kenneth?” I can’t get it out of my head, so I looked into it a bit. Now I feel like my brains are scrambled.

Here are some oddities I have noticed as I started digging. First stop, YouTube. The video itself is filled with all sorts of strobe effects. I shouldn’t have to tell any serious CT about strobes.






The song is based on a bizarre event which took place on October 4, 1986. Anchorman Dan Rather was approached by two men, while he walked down Park Avenue at abou 11 p.m. One of the men attacked him from behind and began beating him, shouting in demand, “Kenneth! What’s the frequency Kenneth?!!!”

Now let’s skip back to the previous month. Rather had signed off his newscasts for a week somewhat enigmatically, with the single word “courage.” That same week in September, Arab extremists had threatened to “become familiar with your skyscrapers and extend the terror campaign to the United States.” Coincidentally enough, the topic of Dan Rather’s last piece was the 9/11 attacks, and he signed off his final broadcast with that word “courage.”

Anything odd related to Dan Rather specifically linked to the date of September 11? Well, yes there is actually. On September 11, 1987, the year after the “Kenneth” attack, Dan Rather up and walked off the set leaving the networks scrambling to fill the slot. There was a full six minutes of dead air. A huge no no for television.

A few months later, Rather publicly assailed then Vice-President, and frontrunner for the Republican nomination, George H.W. Bush over the Iran-Contra scandal during a live on-air interview. It turned out to be a pivotal point in both of their careers. Rather’s ratings began a steady decline from that point on, while many believe this was a pivotal point in Bush’s successful run for President. The animosity between the anchorman and the Bush family was permanent. Neither President Bush has ever granted Dan Rather another interview.

Dan Rather was also intimately involved with news surrounding Afghanistan, when it was the Soviets who were invading. The following article has some insights there. Obviously I don’t have to point out the connections with 9/11, Afghanistan, and the Bush’s.

Back to the main topic. On the last day of August 1994, the day before September, a man named William Tager murdered NBC stagehand Campbell Montgomery outside of the “Today” show studio. The motivations for the murder take several tracks, but supposedly the murderer believed that the media had him under surveillance and were beaming hostile messages to him. In 1997 a writer for the NY Daily News claimed to have solved the mysterious attack on Dan Rather, saying that it had been William Tager, demanding to “know the frequency,” all those years earlier. Dan Rather positively identified the man from a picture.

But apparently there is much more to the story. Read the following…

This article really blew my mind when I found it, because I had a synchronicity yesterday in relation to the downright bizarre movie “12 Monkeys.” So, now we have Tager supposedly arriving in New York City on September 1, 1986 from a parallel universe in the twenty-third century. (Born 2265. Half of 22 is 11.) One day shy of eight years later, on the last day before the month of September, Tager commits murder. Twenty two days later (11 x 2) R.E.M. releases the single “What’s the Frequency Kenneth”

Then there is a completely different explanation for the attack on Dan Rather that is full of its own synchronicities. Notice the word “world” in here, I think it’s toward the end. And remember that Dan Rather used to sign off saying, “…and that’s part of your world tonight."

Now we have the death of Dan Rather’s career over the documents relating to Bush Jr. and his service in the National Guard. I don’t have to rehash that whole scandal, but it seems pretty clear that Rather was set up with phony documents, that were probably actually telling the truth. The Bush’s decided to finally crucify him. Rather broke the story, on September 8, 2004. On September 19, 2007, Rather filed a lawsuit against CBS. The following article spins him into the land of “bizarre conspiracy” and irrelevance.

My brain is pretty fried at this point, so I’m going to post, and come back later to try to make a little more sense of all this.
