"Media Narrative: Witnessing Boston’s Mass Casualty Event
By James F. Tracy
Global Research, April 22, 2013
Does a compelling description of a terrorist attack replete with “eyewitness accounts” of the terrifying scene and official pronouncements constitute an actual event? The available video evidence reveals an explosion occurring at 2:50PM across Boylston Street from the finish line bleachers, the exact point where the national media’s camera lenses were transfixed. The abundant media presence alongside personal cellphone cameras have provided abundant footage of the event and its immediate aftermath.
Despite the seemingly formidable explosions very few bodies and no severed limbs are observable on the ground, even though there are numerous people exhibiting bewilderment and apparent injuries. In short, the event closely resembles a mass-casualty drill, many of which are for training purposes designed to be as lifelike as possible. Since it is mediated, however, and primarily experienced from afar through the careful assemblage of words, images, and the official pronouncements and commentary of celebrity journalists, it has the semblance of being for all practical purposes “real.”
****************************
Reports arising in the Boston bombing’s aftermath suggest how local authorities in possible coordination with the Department of Homeland Security were in the process of carrying out such drills, complete with the announcement of bombs being detonated and bomb-sniffing dogs present at the start and finish lines....
Alternative news media have also pointed to the presence of what appear to be private military contractors in matching civilian apparel operating in coordination with an unmarked SUV close to the Marathon finish line. Identically-dressed men are observable before the bomb blasts in the immediate proximity of where the first bomb exploded and across the street thereafter....
With the above in mind, photographic evidence of the event suggests the possibility of play actors getting into position after the detonation of what may in fact have been a smoke bomb or similarly benign explosive....
Much is still unknown about the tragic bombing to draw any concrete conclusions. However, much like 9/11, Oklahoma City, Aurora, and Newtown, an official storyline complete with the execution and/or capture of bad-guy culprits has been forged and vigorously drummed into the public mind.
In the law enforcement panic that followed martial law was declared and militarized police were unleashed in a paradoxical attempt to reestablish the order that was disrupted through their own incompetence or coordinated intent, another startling flash of the unfolding police state’s severity.
The upshot will be a continued program of more intensified repression at taxpayer expense alongside a corresponding erosion of civil liberties. All the while, future terror-inducing events magnified through the corporate news media’s falsifying prism reinforce our cursed tendency to welcome the illusion—to define first, and then see.

"Are You Just A Believer Or Do You THINK?
I’ve studied and graduated EMT-B certification with the state of Oregon.
I’ve been on calls with heavy arterial bleeds, internal bleeding,
fatalities, doa’s. I am speaking from direct personal experience with
severe trauma.
Here is a telling photograph of the amputee actor. I encourage readers to view the photo side by side with my analysis.
http://www.kaotic.com/media/pictures…42b556ee65.jpg
If you loose both your legs from explosive trauma half your blood is
gone in one minute via the femoral arteries, youre dead after two.
Bleeding out is worse with blunt force trauma (like shrapnel) because
flesh is torn rather than cut, exposing more arterial and vascular
tissue. The human body holds 5 to 6 LITERS of blood. If that really
happened you would see blood EVERYWHERE, the guy would be drenched in
it. You would also see what’s called arterial spurtting from the injury.
Most likely he would vomit after turning ghost white from shock, then
turning delirious or passing out. As for the “tourniquet”…
Its not even tied off, its suspended via gravity, which would literally
do nothing to an arterial sever. There’s no pressure applied. There’s no
knott with a turn stick for leverage. You can clearly see a gap in the
nonexistent wrap job on his left inner thigh (left anterior proximal for
you experts) His hands have no blood on them. There’s no blood on the
ground. The color in his hands and lips shows good circulation.
This is an actor. This is staged. How did they pull it off though? I can show you....
This image was taken by a third party photographer seconds after the
first explosion. There is clear evidence of false flag staging here. The
man in the red coat and baseball hat on the right is kneeling down
giving directions to the guy in the white T-shirt. Also looking to this
pair for direction are the woman sitting to the right and the man in a
hood and sunglasses who set up the double amputee prosthetics.
Notice the relaxed posture and face of the hooded man. Notice also the
calm prepared posture of the woman sitting down on the bottom right. See
how her shirt sleeve is severely torn, yet her skin underneath is clean
and clear of injury and blood. From where she’s sitting look right to
the bottom right corner and you can see an unmarked bottle of fake
blood.
Look to the left and see the cowboy hat man standing there doing
nothing. This is the same man who will pretend to hold the tourniquet of
the fake amputee actor later on. Look to center of the photo and you
will see the african woman moving herself away from the amputee actor
since her shielding him from camera’s job is over. Next to her is a
woman with red hair leaning on her elbow.
Compare this now with another photo taken seconds later. Putting them side by side is very helpful.
The man with the hood and sunglasses, who was just sitting up looking
fine and healthy after fixing up the amputee actor’s prosthetics, is now
on his back being evaluated by two people. Notice the rips in his jeans
have no sign of blood or injury on the skin. The woman with red hair
however is in the exact same pose as a minute ago. Meanwhile the double
amputee actor is completely ignored by everyone when he is clearly in
the most dire need of attention. There is a small amount of fake blood
around him where the african lady shielding him used to be, she has
dissappeared. What happened to her? Compare this photo with the first in
my post.
The african woman who was sitting up, shielding the hooded man and
amputee actor’s prosthetic rigging, giving hand signals, looking left
and right, having no visible blood or injuries, is now covered in blood
and strapped into a spine board stretcher.
In a real medical scenario the amuptee would receive immediate treatment
or die from bleed out. The fact this actor woman is removed from the
scene via stretcher while the double amputee is left on the ground is
ludacris. He would be dead from blood lose before they could even begin
spinal assessment procedures involved in moving a patient to a
stretched. Not to mention his blood lose would be over five liters,
enough to cover the entire scene around these people in a thick puddle.
From firsthand experience with trauma in the field of EMS work, this is not real. These are actors. This is all staged.

"The Boston Massacre
In the film Children of Men, an explosion takes place in an urban center. Later, the characters blame the government and passively explain how whenever a politician is losing their grip on power, they resort to dictatorial tactics.
Boston Marathon eyewitnesses report heavy police presence and activity prior to the bombing and the fact that the government was running a drill having to do with explosives. This has gone on long enough and those of us who have done our academic research are aware of strategies of tension (i.e. Operation Gladio) and the use of government drills as a method to execute terrorism. Drills have taken place just before nearly every recent bombing in the West.
So I send information that implicates the government to my stateside family, thinking yegads, they must realize it by now! To add to the Twilight Zone, a recent episode of the Family Guy depicted the lead character blowing up the Boston Marathon, which is now being scrubbed off the Internet and TV. I don’t know what to think of it, but wrap your mind around that one! It was just like the time the X-Files put out the 9/11 scenario six months prior to the event itself (maybe it’s that Hollywood-CIA connection?). Yet my family tells me they’ve had enough of me. Me too, I’ve had enough of trying to shake them from their “American Dream” stupor....

"Many Bostonians Love And Worship The Militarized Police State
04/24/13
Lee Rogers
The video and images depicting the havoc caused in the aftermath of the Boston Marathon bombing were undoubtedly a disturbing sight. Even more disturbing were the sights and sounds of Bostonians
celebrating and cheering the capture of suspect number two following the implementation of a full blown militarized police state in and around Boston. These mindless sheep were cheering the suspect’s capture despite the fact that the FBI and local police forces have still failed to produce any concrete evidence proving that either of the two suspects planted the bombs. Even worse was how many of these mindless zombies were cheering the
militarized police forces that put the city under a state of martial law in the name of capturing a single 19 year old young man.
It is a documented fact that these militarized police forces conducted warrantless unconstitutional door to door searches and restricted travel for no justifiable reason. These types of warrantless searches are a clear violation of the
Fourth Amendment which guards against unreasonable searches and seizures. The actions taken by Governor Deval Patrick and the militarized police goons were unlawful according to the supreme law of the land and a misuse of government resources. Even after conducting these unlawful searches for hours on end the storm troopers still failed to find the suspect that they were looking for. Once the so-called lock down was lifted the suspect was found minutes later by a man who saw something suspicious near his boat after he was allowed to leave his home. If these idiots didn’t roll out full blown martial law throughout the area and simply asked for the public’s help in locating this person, the suspect would have been found much sooner. This is just one reason why it is disgusting to see how so many brainwashed robots were cheering the police forces who conducted these illegal operations.
The state of martial law in and around Boston undoubtedly resulted in a tremendous amount of revenue lost for businesses in and around the area. Of course the stooges in the corporate media won’t talk about that or the legality and the wisdom of such a boneheaded operation. The reason they won’t is because the roll out of a militarized police force in the name of safety and security is now an accepted norm in America.
People just don’t seem to understand that operations like these do not guarantee your safety or security. As I’ve pointed out in previous articles covering the Boston Marathon bombing, there was a huge police presence at the Boston Marathon. Despite the vast number of police and security forces, they still failed to prevent the bombing. When one understands that the government has a historical track record of staging attacks like these in order to justify different agendas, it makes perfect sense as to why all of these security forces couldn’t prevent the attack. However, if we were to assume that this was a real attack that wasn’t sanctioned by official channels, this was a huge police failure. Of course we don’t see anybody in the media questioning the failure of the police to keep people safe do we? Instead, we see talking head propagandists calling for more police, more security, more searches, more cameras and other assorted bull shit.
What we are witnessing is similar to what we saw after the September 11th attacks when the corporate media failed to scrutinize the obvious incompetence of military officers who failed in their duty to protect the country. Instead, many of those people who displayed gross incompetence in dealing with the September 11th attacks were given promotions. Undoubtedly this was done to keep these people happy and discourage them from blowing the whistle on the countless anomalies that occurred that day.
The bombings have also presented new opportunities for re-emphasizing the worship of the militarized police state at professional sporting events. Worshipping members of the military and police at baseball games, football games and other breads and circus spectacles has become a quasi-religious experience for people ever since the September 11th attacks. We were able to witness this in full force at the recent Boston Red Sox game at Fenway Park that took place following the capture of the 2nd suspect. A pre-game ceremony remembering the victims of the Boston Marathon bombing included a video presentation combining sappy music with images of American flags and police. Not surprisingly, the presentation drew a pavlovian like reaction of cheers and applause from the fans. Red Sox player David Ortiz would even come out thanking Massachusetts Governor Deval Patrick and Boston Mayor Tom Menino proclaiming that it was their fucking city and that nobody was going to dictate their freedom. Perhaps Ortiz forgot that the same people he was thanking were responsible for putting the entire city under martial law just a short period of time ago. Footage showing the actions of SWAT teams forcing families out of their homes without any warrants or probable cause have been posted all over different video sharing web sites. Here's a clip from CNN reporting on the specifics of the unlawful searches including how they were breaking into people's homes.
Photo: A line forms to shake the hand of officer Raymond Coldero, right, as a crowd reacts to news of the arrest of one of the Boston Marathon bombing suspects during a celebration at Boston Commons, Friday, April 19, 2013, in Boston.
The worship of police officers and members of the military being portrayed as heroic figures has become a national mental illness perpetuated by exaggerated media propaganda and fear mongering. Even though there might be a few good police officers who do their job and uphold civil liberties, there are far too many cases of the police abusing their authority and engaging in an assortment of illegal activities. Many police officers are nothing more than common criminals who enjoy bullying people around. People in third world countries already have a general understanding that the police are corrupt and shouldn’t be trusted but unfortunately it looks like most Americans haven’t quite grasped this concept yet.

"Boston Terror – Another Red Pill / Blue Pill Moment for America
April 23, 2013
By Dylan Charles
Sigmund Fraud
Waking Times
Americans love to be entertained, and we love watch other people’s
lives unfold in chaos, scandal and violence. We love narratives about
conquering evil with overwhelming firepower. We love scripts and
adventures, and swashbuckling gun battles, underdogs, dead bad guys and
heroic gunfighters. We love to suspend disbelief and open ourselves to
fantasy.
Lately the mainline media narrative offered up by the big few media
companies has given us a lot to take in. Just a couple of weeks ago,
North Korea was targeting us with nukes, then on we went to the terrible
Boston bombings and ensuing manhunt. The prevailing message is that
Americans are increasingly being targeted for political reasons, we are
insecure and vulnerable in a dangerous world… so get used to it.
By keeping ideas like these at the forefront of our consciousness,
and constantly switching up the narrative to add more boogeymen, more
intrigue, more detail, and more potential for disaster, our mainline
media directs our collective conversation and steals our attention away
from whatever it does not wish for us to discuss. It fills the role of
24-hour culture-creator and idea-nanny, forever plotting the course for
our
social anxieties, ensuring that we are never without big, big concerns.
The real events and interests in our lives seem to have little
connection with, or impact on, the events taking place in the mainline
media narrative. Yet, this ongoing story certainly does have a real
effect on our lives. The narrative instructs us, and speaks at us, while
our interests and desires have zero effect on the direction the
narrative takes.
It works this way to dispempower the individual, so that the
collective can be more easily moulded by those with the intent to
exploit us.
With all this high production media security theater how do we know
what’s real and what is not? How do we know what genuinely affects our
lives and what does not?
After last week’s tense drama over the Boston bombings, a few key truths about
life in America have emerged so far.
Distrust Is Higher Than Ever
Distrust of the media and government is at an all time high, and rightfully so, since they continue to discredit themselves by arrogantly refusing to discuss
details about the bombings that are questionable to even novice internet sleuths. Equally notable, however, is the distrust that Americans are showing for one another these days. Our society is deeply fractured, and for every movement big or small there is an equally motivated group of people working in direct opposition. For every belief out there, there is a corresponding and fanatical anti-belief. The proliferation of values in our world is so diverse that unity in any area is an enigma. Distrust, skepticism and paranoia carry the day.
The Media Narrative Works
The general public’s willingness to believe, identify with and internalize media events like these is also at an all time high. The ongoing story effectively induces people into a hypnotic state of shock and paralyzing fear. It occupies us completely by gripping our lowest levels of consciousness. This too, is understandable, as Americans are under an increasing amount of stress, while experiencing record poor mental and physical health. Record numbers of people are ‘snapping’ these days. Entertainment is our great escape from the madness in this world, and the unbeatable drama of being at the mercy of evil-doers while having an ever-watchful guardian protect us from all possible harm is too tantalizing to pass up.
What Is Truth?
Truth is more difficult than ever to identify. It looks different to everyone, and it changes from day to day. With so many perspectives on current events, and so many actors and agendas involved, it is impossible for a single truth to gain momentum. A stalemate. The fracturing of trust and truth means that the biggest, loudest and most repeated lies will fill the void and become truth for most.
Security Is an Illusion
There is no such thing as security. At the Boston marathon, security
was the highest it had ever been at a marathon when the bombs went off.
The temptation to keep increasing security, meaning the presence of
armed agents and surveillance, won’t address the fundamental problems
with the world that make people commit violence and stage
terror. Furthermore, from the moment we take our first breath, we are
cast into entropy and on our way to death, spit into a world of harm and
hurt and pain. There is no level of armed security or guardianship that
can prevent discomfort, demise, and doom. In this revelation is true
freedom from
fear of death, doom, and unfavorable outcomes.
Do we take the red pill, or the blue pill?
In light of these emerging truths, Americans are left to choose their
own reality based on their personal media choices and however it is
they interpret them. We get to choose our relationship with this ongoing
script of endless crises.
Do we choose the view that encourages us to believe what we see,
ignore what we don’t see, and do what we are told, when we are told? Or
do we look at the outcome of events like these in the past and view this
unfolding story with skepticism and as being part of another trojan
horse usurpation of authority perpetrated against a mesmerized
populous? Which pill do we swallow this time?
While we construct our own versions of reality, picking and choosing
what we want to believe in and what we are skeptical of, some very
concrete things are certain to happen, and are already taking place.
Whether we buy into the reasoning behind this, or agree with any of it
is entirely irrelevant. Whatever we personally believe, America is
certain to soon see…
- An expansion of the police state.
More officers, recruits and resources, more military grade equipment and
training, further increases in cooperation between law enforcement,
federal agencies and the military.
- More surveillance of the American public, more cameras, more data
collection and internet surveillance. More questions, checkpoints and
public safety emergencies.
- Increased public presence of agents of the Department of Homeland Security and the TSA, including at sporting events, transit lines, malls and public events.
- An increase in the domestic use of drones and the justification for
the use of more war technologies in America, against America.
- Military like forces in heavily fortified armored vehicles will be seen in our communities with increasing frequency.
- More public safety ‘lockdowns’ of American cities and towns, including suspensions of rights and due process.
Whichever view of the truth we personally pursue, or whichever
narrative we choose to believe in, America is changing rapidly. It is
more critical than ever to be honest about what is happening and where
this narrative is leading us. Choosing to internalize these public
scripts, taking the fear as our own, then allowing an authoritative
armed force to manage our anger, hate and revenge for us, leads to
greater dependence on authoritative institutions and less input into the
kind of future we will get.
Whether we like it or not, or vote against it or not, we will be
provided with greater and greater levels of security, while becoming
increasingly less safe from violent terror and abuse of power by
authorities. So, pick your pill, they are both hard to swallow.

"Actors, Directors and Bloody Squibs: Was the Boston Bombing Pure Hollywood?
April 22, 2013
By
21wire
RELATED STORY: Boston Bombing Stage: An ensemble cast of soldiers, spooks and ‘cleaners’
21st Century Wire asks…
Can we put these crazy internet rumours to rest once and for all?
Now we can’t say one way or the other, whether some aspects of – or if the whole of the Boston Bombing ‘event’ was staged – few people can.
Speculation is rife, yes, but we can look at what we see in pictures
and ask relevant questions. The question everyone is asking is:
Is it possible that any of the events of April 15th were staged?
Many
people’s first reaction to scenes of the bombing were that of disbelief
– it was gruesome like no one had ever seen before – not even from war
photos. Truly horrific and shocking. So much pain and suffering for so
many victims and their families.
Still, there are skeptics, but
not as much as to what happened (most people tend to take the bombing
itself on face value), but rather, how
perfectly it was was
captured on film and in picture, from the stunning colorful plume cloud
explosion which shot perfectly into the street – almost like a Hollywood
film, or the ripped and torn cloths of victims, and the bright red
colored spatters of blood on the pavement, or like the icon images of
victims with legs and fingers blown off, being rushed away in wheel
chairs where they would be photographed perfectly.
It almost seems staged.
Indeed, as with 9/11, we heard the members of the public tell to the media the same thing, “It was like a scene out of a movie…”
From
the photos, to the FBI suspects, to the homilies by law enforcement and
Washington officials – and unlike post 9/11, many more people this
time are heard to be saying, “It just doesn’t add up.”
AWARD-WINNING PHOTO: Man with torn cloths, but no sign of any cuts or wounds. Is this really possible?
Some
are saying it was designed for full public and emotional effect, and
some may also argue that the most celebrated and famous scenes and
pictures seem to defy the laws of physiology. So we’ve asked some
professionals who work in trauma surgery and emergency response.
We
are merely inquiring, so as to learn more about such events. Judging
purely on the photographic evidence and some of the painfully dramatic
interviews on US national networks like MSNBC, it would be ignorant not
to revisit some of these images and soberly ask the questions:
- Why are so many EMT’s, and police wearing sunglasses, on such an overcast Boston Marathon day?
-
Who is the man wearing a hood and sunglasses who was seen helping the
double amputee, and why was he so keen to conceal his identity?
- How could someone who had both their legs blown off still remain fully conscious and awake after so long?-
Why are amputees and bombing victims all being carted off in wheel
chairs? Doesn’t this break the first rule of basic first aid, let alone
that of professional EMT or EMS workers on site? Why not use backboards
or gurneys?
- Why does the blood on the pavement look like bright red paint, and not like real color of blood?
In
real life, when caught in any serious or traumatic situation and
especially when attending to the injured, the first thing that a person
does is to
take off their sunglasses in order to better see and to make eye contact with those who need help. But that’s just our opinion…

"How The Boston Bombing Is Already Being Exploited To Introduce Tyranny
Brandon Smith
Activist Post
I have no personal experience in the business of false flag terrorism, but I imagine that engineering a successfully staged terror attack to be blamed on innocent or semi-innocent parties with the goal of psychologically manipulating a population requires that one also be an accomplished storyteller. It demands an avid imagination and an organized sense of foresight. And, most of all, it requires a consistency of narrative. Without consistency, the audience’s ability to suspend its disbelief is damaged, and they become disconnected from the fantasy being portrayed.
If I were the “writer” behind the “story” of the Boston Marathon Bombing, I would consider my efforts an abject failure.
The narrative of the event has changed multiple times in only a few days, following a hailstorm of conflicting observations from the government and the establishment-run media. The “villain” of the original plotline was clearly meant to be “rightwing extremism” as numerous mainstream talking heads, led by federal agency inferences, began repeating the “homegrown right wing terrorist” meme everywhere. This meme was partly abandoned after the alternative media and the Liberty Movement began its own investigation, revealing a large federal presence on the scene, including military Civil Support Teams often tied to the DHS and NORTHCOM, as well as the witnesses who observed what on-scene officials called “training exercises” during the marathon. I have no doubt that these citizen investigations forced the establishment to change the direction of their crime tale, and use Plan B patsies instead. This, however, complicated the momentum of the fiction, and created even more questions.
The Chechen brothers now implicated in the attack have been revealed as long time FBI contacts. This is a bit awkward for the FBI considering they asked the American public to help them “identify the suspects in on-scene photos” while they failed to mention that they knew EXACTLY who the two young men were already (this is what we might call a contrived story arch). Today, the older brother, Tamerlan Tsarnaev, is conveniently dead. The younger brother, Dzhokhar Tsarnaev, had his throat conveniently shot out. The feds are now supplying the media with “written confessions” from Dzhokhar to which there is no proof of legitimacy. For all we know the boy hasn’t written a word.
The new “villains” get no voice in this drama, and thus become two dimensional characters. They exist so that we can hate them. Understanding them, or hearing their side of events from their own lips, is certainly out of the question. Poorly fleshed out antagonists are a sure sign of a poorly constructed story.
Finally, we get to the “heroes”. Though the criminal elements of our federal government and adjoining alphabet agencies did not yet get the right wing patriot patsy they obviously wanted, they have still so far gleaned considerable social capital from the bombings. The point of a false flag is to frighten the population of any given nation into relinquishing freedom in the name of safety, which in the process gives the central government even more control. In the wake of the Boston attack, the establishment is having a field day….
Martial Law Conditioning
For a few days, Boston became an Orwellian nightmare. The city lockdown and subsequent militarization was swift, though any intelligent and guilty suspect could have easily left the area before hand. This kind of response to catch only two supposed perpetrators is outlandish, unless you understand that it was not about catching the bombers. Rather, it was an exercise designed to test the malleability of the American people during a crisis scenario. In Watertown, residents were not only forced into lockdown; they were also subjected to house-to-house searches without warrant, pat downs, and numerous other violations of their 4th Amendment rights. Take note that almost everything you see in the video below is an illegal and unconstitutional action on the part of Boston authorities:
As this was occurring, officials were consistently pushing media cameras away from the area in the name of “safety”, even though media cameramen are sent into domestic shootouts and foreign warzones on a regular basis. The only real purpose that I can see to removing them from the scene was to reduce the amount of video footage depicting these illegal searches and seizures:
For those who can’t grasp what has happened here, let me explain; the
dynamics of liberty have just been erased. This kind of behavior on the
part of government will not be limited to disasters like Boston, or New
Orleans during Katrina; a precedence is being set to use martial
law-style tactics anywhere for any reason at anytime. The “national
security argument” is being used as a free license to institute any
measure regardless of law to achieve a particular combat objective. The
environment we saw in the dark days of Boston is an environment we’ll
soon see all over the country, and here is why…
Escalation
Boston represents a clear escalation of the use of NDAA and martial law
measures in the aftermath of a security event. After the arrest of
Dzhokhar Tsarnaev, who became a naturalized U.S. citizen in 2012, his
Miranda Rights under the Constitution were denied due to “extraneous
circumstances of national security”. Numerous lawmakers called for the
suspect to be treated as an “enemy combatant” so that he could be
interrogated under the laws of war without due process: (
Source)
The Obama White House has cleverly called for a civilian trial of
Tsarnaev in order to reduce criticisms of its support for numerous
unconstitutional measures, including the NDAA and the use of
assassination against American citizens. The White House has always
claimed that it would not use the combatant provisions against American
citizens, but has never denied that those provisions could be applied to
us. The idea is that while the president does have these powers at his
disposal, we’re supposed to have “faith” that he will not abuse them.
During the debate over the passage of the NDAA, Obama opposed certain
language within the legislation that REQUIRED him to treat accused
domestic terrorists as enemy combatants, not because he thought it was
wrong, or unconstitutional, but because he wanted the OPTION to decide
whether he would or would not black bag a citizen and throw him into an
unspecified hole. He has simply exercised his “option” for a citizen
trial, at least this time around…
In the meantime, a simultaneous and so far poorly verified “train
attack” has been averted in Canada, opening the door for more discussion
on something the establishment has been trying to squeeze out of the
populace for years: consent for the federalized lockdown of travel and
public events. Whether through TSA, or the use of state authorities
under the watch of the DHS, the government has been desperately
clamoring to expand the control grid out of airports and federal
buildings into the bus stations, subways, trains, highways and sidewalks
of America: (
Source)
I believe that we will soon see much greater presence of TSA VIPR teams
at large public arenas and in transportation venues outside of airports,
and that the Boston Bombing will be used as a primer for this
expansion. Recent comments by NY Mayor Michael Bloomberg only reinforce
my belief. Bloomberg, in reference to the marathon attack, stated
that:
…we live in a complex word where you’re going
to have to have a level of security greater than you did back in the
olden days, if you will. And our laws and our interpretation of the
Constitution, I think, have to change.
Look,
we live in a very dangerous world. We know there are people who want to
take away our freedoms. New Yorkers probably know that as much if not
more than anybody else after the terrible tragedy of 9/11…
We
have to understand that in the world going forward, we’re going to have
more cameras and that kind of stuff. That’s good in some sense, but
it’s different from what we are used to…
Ironically, the
only enemy out there that appears ready to “take our freedoms away” are
men like Bloomberg; snakes in the grass that pay lip service to the
Constitution while constantly trying to undermine it.
Free Speech Is Next
The bombings in Boston took place, apparently by coincidence, just
before Oath Keepers, a national organization of current serving
military, police officers, and veterans promoting adherence to their
constitutional oath was to hold a large rally at Lexington Green. The
Lexington Green board, one member of which had been openly hostile to
Oath Keepers in the past, decided to use the crisis as an excuse to deny
the rally permit already attained by the liberty minded group.
The Lexington Selectmen claimed that under the suggestions of “state
officials” the rally had to be cancelled due to the “lack of police”
available to secure the area and ensure public safety. However, when
Oath Keepers held a brief oath ceremony at the Green in protest of the
decision, a police force was sent to watch them: (
Source)
This means that public safety was not the issue. Rather, safety and
security were being used yet again to deny a constitutional right, and
this time it was the most vital and valuable right of all – free speech.
During the height of the civil rights marches of the '50s and '60s, the
exact same tactics were used to silence dissent. Black protesters were
told that they could not obtain proper permits for peaceful marches
because their “own safety” and the safety of the public could not be
ensured. This matter of using broad hypothetical dangers as a catalyst
for censorship was finally argued before the Supreme Court in
Shuttlesworth v. Birmingham. The court sided with the protesters
pointing out that the use of undefined safety concerns and “prior
restraint” to silence speech was unconstitutional. Unfortunately, the
decision has not prevented the U.S. government from slowly undermining
public protest rights ever since.
The fascinating thing about incremental tyranny is the way in which
naïve members of our society try to rationalize it. They debate using
logical fallacies like:
How have your rights been violated in particular? If your rights haven’t been violated, what right do you have to complain?
And how about this gem…
Yeah, there are problems in this country, but
at least we have some freedom. In many countries, you wouldn’t be
allowed to complain the way you are…
This is statist
psychology at work. Freedom, in their minds, is a privilege doled out
by governments, rather than an inborn attribute outside of the realm of
law. They do not understand that the violation of the rights of one
American is a violation of the rights of ALL Americans. They do not
understand that the destruction of some constitutional protections will
one day lead to the destruction of ALL constitutional protections.
The establishment and the useful idiots they manipulate want to make the
“threat” the center of attention, but ultimately, the threat is
irrelevant. There will always be the danger of terrorism and death.
Always! And, if our government is following the Operation Gladio false
flag model (look it up, folks, it was openly admitted government funded
terrorism), as I believe they are, then we can count on Boston-style
bombings all over the U.S. very soon.
True crisis lay in what we refuse to see, and the greatest crisis today
is not the bombing of a marathon, but the destruction of our freedoms in
the name of “security”. The bottom line? Our civil liberties are not
up for compromise. Period. Shootings, bombs, nukes, nothing! There is
no rationalization that will ever make tyranny a moral enterprise. I,
like many other Americans, do not care what boogeyman fantasy is paraded
in front of me. We are not frightened, and we are not ignorant. No
attack, no matter how heinous, will ever convince us to hand over our
freedom.
