Colorado Batman shooting shows obvious signs of being staged

In any theater I went to in Colorado, there were not really "ushers" per se. Just people who clean up between the shows.

The real problem is that people who are prone to conspiratorial thinking have not learned to think critically. It is almost as if they expect a conspiracy and seek them where none exist. They fail to use Occam's Razor; rather than following that the simplest explanation that explains the facts tends to be the correct one. They would rather look to a large number of people keeping a huge secret. Hence we get those who look for a non-existent gunman on the grassy knoll. Those who seek confirmation that the Apollo astronauts never visited the Moon. Those who think 9/11 was a government plot. Those who insist beyond all reason that the President of the US was born in Africa. That AIDS was created by the government.
Notice a pattern? Many conspiracies place the blame for bad things at the government's door. These people tend to go beyond a healthy skepticism about the role of government, but have an overriding dislike and even hatred of our government that borders on treason. The ultimate outcome of such thinking leads one down a bad path. The same journey traversed by Timothy McVeigh, who acted on his hatred of our government to the point of parking a fertilizer bomb underneath a day care center at a federal government office building in downtown Oklahoma City.
Since the mass media doesn't lend credence to their bizarre and twisted plot lines, they also distrust and dislike them as well, preferring to get their misinformation from fringe radio programs and internet blogs.
I am beyond being amused by such people. I find them sad, out of touch with reality, and in extreme cases, a bit dangerous.

Don't forget the day we were disenfranchised:
"We have to pass the bill so you can find out what's in it"

What would be the government's purpose in staging the Colorado shootings?
Anyone?

That's not the issue here, as that is a no-brainer. If the government staged it, it would be to cause people to clamour for more gun control. That much is easy to see.
The issue is whether or not the government had anything to do with it.
Well, it's pretty stupid to stage a mass murder as an attempt to pass gun control laws with an election less than 100 days away. Also, Obama has already said he was not going to press for gun control laws this year.
That's because he saw the polls AFTER the shooting. Guns sales are up BIG time since this shooting, folks want to be able to defend themselves against this sort of thing. James Carvelle has advised the Democrats that gun control is a losing issue with most Americans. This is why Obama has said he will not pursue gun control at this time.
I believe Fast and Furious was a plan that backfired the Dems were going to use to promote gun control. Hundreds of people are dead, including a Border Patrolman. Would Obama and the Dems stage a shooting like the Batman shooting? I think they would, I wouldn't put anything past this bunch of gangsters in the White House.
That said, I have no idea who was involved in this shooting besides Holmes. That does not mean much, I have always been convinced the government was involved in the JFK assassination. I believe this was a professional hit job, and all evidence was suppressed. The #1 witness, Oswald himself was gunned down two days later in a police station with literally hundreds of police officers guarding the joint. Ruby walked right up and shot Oswald from inches away. He was dying of cancer and kept his mouth shut till he died in prison. I am convinced this was a hit job.
We like to believe there are good folks in government, I think most would be shocked if they knew the truth.
Who cares?:laugh:
I can't resist tuning in just to find out what nonsense you are peddling in your latest exercise in paranoia.
This one is a doozy! I'm glad I stopped by.:wavey:

No one answered my question.
Who here could make a positive ID of a person wearing a gas mask in a dark smoke filled room while being shot at?
Anyone?
Mandy, as Christians aren't we all supposed to be "truthers"? Is there something evil about seeking the truth? The government and mass media has been caught in so many lies how can anyone in their right mind believe anything they say? Which is more sane, to question what they tell us even if it sounds crazy or just take their word at face value? They lied about Iraq. They lied about Afghanistan. They lied about Libya. They're lying about Syria. They lied about "Fast and Furious". They lied about the Maine. They lied about the USS Liberty. They lied about the Gulf of Tonkin. They lie constantly. So how then has seeking the truth become a taboo? Because they say it is?
I know if it can't be blamed on a democrat you aren't interested in it. And the same goes for those on the "other side". If it can't be blamed on a republican they aren't interested.
Our world looks as though it only has two sides doesn't it? Neither seems interested in the truth unless it can be used as ammo against a political opponent. I always thought as Christians we were different. I thought we loved the truth for truth's sake but my time here has shown me otherwise. I am a whole "truther". Why aren't you? Because it's not politically expedient? Because it doesn't fit in with the "mainstream consensus"? Because we're told it's unbiblical to question the "authorities"?
The former University of Colorado graduate student accused of killing 12 people and wounding 58 others in a shooting rampage at a cinema last week had been under the care of a psychiatrist who was part of a campus threat-assessment team.
The disclosure came in court documents filed yesterday by lawyers for James Holmes, 24, who is accused of opening fire last Friday on a packed showing of the latest Batman movie, "The Dark Knight Rises," in the Denver suburb of Aurora. SOURCE
What drugs was Holmes on?
People don’t get it. The media don’t get it and they don’t want to get it. Billions of dollars are riding on the drugs Dr. Lynne Fenton may have prescribed to her patient, James Holmes, the accused Batman shooter.
And when billions of dollars in potentially lost revenue are hanging in the balance, the interested parties take action. They’re serious about their money. They don’t screw around.
You see, if James Holmes was, for example, taking Prozac, all of a sudden no one wants to take it. If doctors prescribe it to patients, the patients say, “Hey, wasn’t this the drug that nutcase took before he killed all those people in the theater?”
