You will be targeted, called names, and slandered if you do not adhere to the government narrative. Moreover, the trolls have invaded the Substack comments sections as they have everywhere else. They are usually recognizable by their adjectives (ridiculous, looney, et al) and their utter surprise that you could believe such conspiratorial nonesense. It's usually a sign that your writing has become significant when they show up. Anyway, I am sure you already know all of this. Keep telling the truth, you are appreciated.

Think back. Most assassinations of our presidents and key politicians have been attributed to young males in their early 20s.

Is it just by chance that they knew where to go and be in the right position to assassinate the individual?. in my mind it is managed and manipulation of young impressionable men that are still finding their way in life. Susceptible to hypnotic sessions..

Not only that, their resources include very sophisticated data harvesting allowing them to identify the unstable/easily manipulated, socially marginal while possessing the basic skills needed. Crooks and Robinson were IMO ID'd and channeled as ideal patsies.

I've maintained a lot of these 'domestic terrorist' types are in some manner unstable, possibly in need of attention and some recognition, and possibly on pharmaceuticals (SSRIs being at the topofthe list). 'Terrorist' itself is a political term.

Many of these so-called 'explosive device' would-be manufacturers were fed a diet of propaganda and inert materials. Realistically, imo they couldn't successfully detonate a firecracker on their own.

This theory has some validity. I would carry it a bit further to include others in the age group who either performed or attempted to perform attention-getting violent acts. It ned not be exclusive to presidents and key politicians. James Holmes in Aurora, CO is just one example. Age at the time: 24.

Absolutely agree. Sticks and stones....we can handle it!

Thank you for your thoughts on the Kirk assassination. What's your view on the claims by documentary film maker John Hankey, who thinks that POTUS Trump faked the assassination attempt on himself at Butler PA and murdered Corey Comperatore? ( Trump in the Crosshairs? Murder in Butler PA | https://youtu.be/rq2QFvWFUC0?si=uiCkhYmzom96n_gu )

Hankey claims that the tractor in front of the stage meant that Trump was never in the trajectory of a bullet, although Corey was.

Consider what's known about Thomas Crooks. Was he an autistic patsy, and easy to hypnotize? ( Those resistant to 'love hormone' may also be easier to hypnotize | Nature https://share.google/66nbtnUhVqJvGHHWN)

It literally took me (no exaggeration here) 30 seconds to see that Butler Pa. was fake/staged. This stuff comes easily to some of us, and is quite shocking when others refuse to grasp and question the elementary school level play and its actors.

No way! Risk of MIs calculation and death very high!

If you wasted time on Candace Owens videos (I've now wasted 2+hrs of time on) or you wasted time writing an article about this, or you are still here wasting your time trying to convince me.... You MUST have the time to waste watching this:

A very well construed article about an individual's perspective and the need for scrutiny in truth. I would agree that American's in general should always hold a candle to the truth. After all, was our Republic not founded on the necessary basis on an individual's rights and the freedom/liberty those rights should embody? Also true, in my opinion, is staying loyal to the basic principles of our founding. If someone is uncomfortable or unwilling to answer legitimate questions, particularly those who hold any authority in public service, then there is certainly room for skepticism. Political speak and legalese are definitely not synonymous with truth. Without truth, there can never be real justice. I truly know little about Charlie's assassination. The event was beyond tragic because he was making real progress in helping to enlighten younger generations with Christianity, healthy and spirited debate, conservative values, and common sense. He was uniting young people and reigniting those fires of liberty that have been glossed over far too long by complacency and ignorance. Did those things have any connection with his murder? I do not know. But I will say gifted people who make connections as he did with large groups of young people have a storied history of being silenced. That alone convinces me to stay interested and hope that justice is truly served with the truth. Charlie will be missed and his memory is best served in continuing to pursue those inalienable rights for which he stood so well. God has his soul, we have his legacy. Thank you for a great article. May God continue to bless you and yours. God help US and God bless America.

Thank you, John. I appreciate the principles by which you govern your life. And there is a cost we all face for choosing truth over a government's narrative. This was seen during the Covid period. Any person that has a conscience cannot be made to do anything against themselves. But people make choices out of their own self interest or because they are afraid or both and compromise themselves and then feel victimized because of the choice they made.

What you wrote reminds me of a quote written in 1903 by the author, Ellen White, where she said, "The greatest want of the world is the want of men—men who will not be bought or sold, men who in their inmost souls are true and honest, men who do not fear to call sin by its right name, men whose conscience is as true to duty as the needle to the pole, men who will stand for the right though the heavens fall."

John Leake's avatar

Already missing from public affairs in 1903!

Grace Travesser's avatar

Yes. And in 1866 it appeared in a paper, but not in this form that it is in.

Truly, humans haven't been able to change themselves. The results of the cause is clearly seen by everyone.

Thank you for this clarity. I am in agreement on the distrust for the powers that be. Understood.

This brings to mind one of my favorite quotes:

Well, I'll tell ya, in all my years I ain't never heard, seen nor smelt an issue that was so dangerous it couldn't be talked about. Hell yeah! I'm for debating anything. Rhode Island says yea! - Stephen Hopkins in 1776

From the first time I saw this video I questioned the official narrative of the murder. If the defense does not bring all of your questionable points into discussion than I can only assume the defense has been bought off as part of a coverup for protecting the real murderers.

Joze's avatar

This should only serve as guidance for the Prosecution to be prepared to argue every possible insanity….

If you want common sense after wasting time on Candace Owens videos (I've now wasted 2+hrs of time on) or you wasted time writing an article about this, or you are still here wasting your time trying to convince me.... You MUST have the time to waste watching this:

Right on, John. It's best to be a cult of one. 🤣

Amen!

Stephen Joncus's avatar

I agree 100% with your assessment. I do not trust the official narrative and I feel that there are too many questions about the physical evidence. It feels like an Op to me.

I'm a "rogue bovine" too, John. ;-)

I think we need to wait for the trial to see all the evidence. I understand images of the bullet fragments were presented during the preliminary hearing. If you get hit by a bullet traveling beyond the speed of sound, do you think the energy at contact would cause the tee shirt to flutter? Let’s see what is presented at trial.

John Leake's avatar

I could imagine a shock wave rippling through his t-shirt -- what strikes me as odd is that it billows up in the direction of the wound apparently before the wound appears, as though it was acted upon by gas ejecting from a source under the t-shirt. My point is that the defense should examine this closely and try to ascertain what happened to the device visible under his shirt in the video.

Mabel Parrilla's avatar

How about his security grabbing the chair he was sitting in and got up and removed the tape from the security camera and put it in his pocket. He took the evidence. Aside from that, the arena where his funeral was held, was booked a few months in advance.

Appreciate all the work you do. Blessings!!

Maria's avatar

I wasn’t disagreeing I was merely pointing out that there are a multitude of possibilities. I mean, would a t-shirt ripple in that fashion as Charlie is hurled backward from the bullet’s energy? I don’t know. However, I do agree with your analysis that the defense needs to review all possibilities. Thank you.

Lori's avatar

how do we know they are the real bullet fragments?

Nnikk's avatar

Define "all the evidence". Are you referring to that offered by the state?

Nnikk's avatar

Hmm...no big deal, but meant to reply to Maria, not Lori.

David Schmitt's avatar

Bingo. The State has already demonstrated its willingness to deceive by omission on the witness stand. The crime scene was spoliated as was the vehicle that transported CK, the disposition of CK's clothing and that of those initially attending/contacting him. I have not reason to ascribe great confidence in either the autopsy report or the purportedly-recovered bullet fragments.

If one understands the Periodic Table and why it was not merely a list of the chemical elements, but rather is a tool--based on underlying physical rules--regarding what should have existed and what properties it should have had even if it was yet to be discovered, then you will understand why I presented the following hypothesis of the means of homicide in the case of CK.

I intend it to be one hypothesis among many to be considered ("the Multiple-Working Hypothesis Method well known to scientists and philosophers of science, and by practice, to good police detectives).

Yet it appears that this hypothesis is being disregarded-ignored-suppressed despite the fact that it accounts for the observed injuries. My background includes being a neuroscientist that studied spinal cord mechanisms controlling movement, instructor of cadaver anatomy, teaching physiology, and emergency room work during my education.

No one, not Baron Coleman, not Candace Owens, not "TriggerSmart," not John Cullen, not Chris Martenson, not Jason Goodman or others--though I have highlighted the very real strengths of their ideas, will even examine this publicly. They are difficult to contact or are unresponsive or--in a couple cases--belligerent. That's fine, I am not easily offended, I still respect what good they do. Indeed, I believe that multiple means of assassination may have been employed.

I find the silence curious.

With the significant irregularities occurring throughout this event, you might be interested in this proposed cause of the "flutter" by an ammunition designer. It is a well thought out alternative: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yhyFpi5ywhM

Fair!

Shona Duncan's avatar

My work gets maligned sometimes, in my Substack post comments. Or the work of those I cite. Often though the people attacking us do not have even an example they can use. They make sweeping assumptions or unsubstantiated judgements and expect I will just blindly agree. I don't play that game either.

sandy's avatar

You asked questions in your previous post that need to be shared with Tyler Robinson's defense team.

Deb's avatar

Your closing five points are so good and should be put to memory by all! Thank you for your work, John! God bless you and may the TRUTH prevail in this case and so many others!
