Mock School Shooting - Info

Sad Girl


A number of listeners asked me to post this and info on how they can get involved in protesting what they see as politicizing school shootings and slathering them with political correctness.

I'm also including the letter from listener Rick (in green) who has taken the time to list contacts, if you'd like to make your protest more concrete.

This is a direct attack on the Tea party, among a number of other things. - cd


Rick's letter:

RICK FAIRINELLI WRITES: I sometimes wonder whether the objective of studying the human mind is to help or defeat mankind. Probably both. There can be no doubt mainstream media is a psychologically-guided psyops. One of the many things discovered by psychologists is the human mind cannot discern between the real world and a real-looking false world. Thus, people's beliefs about the world can be entirely shaped by TV, movies, and the like. Completely false stereotypes can be manufactured and accepted as reality - the Matrix. The proof of this came from Orson Welles' famous War of the Worlds episode on October 20, 1938. It did not matter that everyone did not buy into the story about an alien invasion. What mattered was that a significant portion of the population did. What follows is an imaginary exercise by Homeland Security designed to create real racial tensions against whites. Whites may not be affected by these exercises, but the affect on minorities can be profound.

Hello Everyone, This is an urgent request to take action. This Saturday, Pottawatamie County and Homeland Security are conducting an exercise with the Treynor, IA Community Schools and will simulate a school shooting. The premise of the mock shooting has been changed to suggest that a student, whose parents oppose illegal immigration comes to school with a gun and shoots a Latino Student.



This was sent to Joan and Michael Becker, whose child was sent home with a permission slip to participate.

Here is the original email from the Becker Family..



To all,

I am praying that this forward actually goes through to everyone. It is really
important.
Attached is the planned mock school shooting exercise scheduled for Saturday,
March 26, 2011, at Treynor Community Schools. The premise is that a white teen
boy, whose family is involved in anti-illegal immigration rallies and favor
guns, goes to school and shoots a Hispanic in a rural school. This premise is
politically motivated, as it is the view of the Democrats in power that white
American citizens who believe in all of their Constitutional rights are
extremists and terrorists. It is an act of silencing my family, and it is an
act of intimidation

of
all American citizens who believe in our rule of law.

Details: my teen daughter had signed up to participate in the mock school
shooting with the approval of my husband, who is in law enforcement. He thought
it would be good for her to know what would happen in the event of a school
shooting. Today, he received the attached e-mail and attachment outlining the
details of the exercise. Upon calling Mr. Reeds, the EMS coordinator in charge,
my husband used facts as the basis for requesting that the scenario be changed.
My husband was told that my daughter was no longer able to participate in the
exercise and that they were not welcome to be one site on Saturday!

As I said, this is government intimidation, it is framing white people as
gun-crazy racists, and Constitutionalists as extremists.

I have forwarded this information to U.S. Representative Steve King, who has
fought against

illegal
immigration and values our Constitution. I am contacting
all of you to let you know of this travesty, so you can spread the word. I am
also going to contact Greg Forristal, my Iowa Representative. I do not know
what else to do other than notify the local newspapers of this event. I would
love to contact the Drudge Report, Glenn Beck, and Fox News, but my e-mail
format is not consistent with theirs.

Please respond so I know
if you got this in its entirety,
what you can do to help spread the word,
what else I or we can do, locally and nationally in bringing attention to this
attack of American citizens and our liberties.

Joan Becker



Please read this entire email and the PDF file linked above. There has NEVER been an incident such as the one they are manufacturing here in the State of Iowa or any other for that matter. This is highly politically motivated, racially inflammatory, and completely egregious.



What message does this send to those students and families in that school district? It very powerfully suggests that any student with parents that have a certain viewpoint are racist and dangerous. It is completely politically motivated unbelievable egregious and has no place in any school.



I would love to organize a protest rally for that day but will be in Des Moines for the CPAC conference. I am urging everyone to at least email and call the organizer of this exercise, the superintendent, and the school principle to let them know how unacceptable this is on many levels.



Please call as many reporters, radio, TV and newspaper personalities and web sites as you can. Please forward this to your mailing lists as well! Here are some of the Contacts;

"Please leave a message Thanks!" so I did!

This kind of propaganda would have made even the likes of Stalin and Lenin blush. It’s really frightening the direction our public officials are talking against the American people, who simply want our laws enforced against those who have violated those laws and continue to inflict harm upon this country.

Our government has chosen to side with illegal invaders and vilify American citizens in the process.

Amazing!

ive called all three numbers and will do so again before the end of the business day

and here is the link to the original Des Moines Register story

http://www.alipac.us/ftopict-232318.html

I called Mr. Reed and left him a message expressing my concern that this negatively portrays activists who have legitimate concerns about illegal immigration and asking him to change the scenario.

i place a second call to mr. reed's office and said that i support all emergency responders getting training. the fact is that most americans support the constitution, 2nd amendment, and oppose illegal immigration are not the problem.

I referred to the SPLC/ADL report from mid 09 report that says that americans are the new terrorists for liking the constitution, 2nd amendment, and oppose illegal immigration
