Pete Williams: Suspect Has Been Identified
— Ace

I'm a little less skeptical of Pete Williams' reporting because in the early morning after the Boston Bomber chase, when many (including me) were still reporting Stupid False Things, Pete Williams came up to the camera and said those reports were false, and the FBI knew who the real bombers were.

He was extremely confidant. As soon as I saw how confidant he was -- and was pretty sure he knew the names of the bombers, but had been forbidden from reporting it yet -- I scrambled to update my own post. He clearly knew what he was talking about. He wasn't guessing; he knew.

And, indeed, in an hour all of the media was reporting the bombers' actual names.

Still, I don't want to report this guy's name. But John Nolte collects up the most recent tips and tweets.

Others (not Pete Williams, apparently) say the shooter was looking for specific targets, as in the case of a grudge killing, but as that's not Pete Williams I put less stock in it.

2:41pm - NBC 4 says one of two potential suspects-- the white male -- is no longer "person of interest," not a suspect. Black male is still a suspect.

2:40pm - NBC 4 reports [suspect's name redacted] ID's by fingerprints. Outlet re-emphasizes that [suspect's name redacted] was targeting specific people.

2:39pm - Per Pete Williams shooter is [suspect's name redacted] of Fort Worth Texas who just started working for the Navy as a civilian contractor. Still, he used the ID card of someone else who had recently been demoted, so badge was still working.

2:37pm - Police want people to call 1-800-CALL-FBI with tips on two suspects still at large. A black man, 40-50 years old in olive drab military uniform. Also a white man in tan khaki Navy uniform wearing a beret.

To reiterate, Pete Williams says that police are questioning the man whose employee badge was found near the body of the shooter (or by the body of one of the shooters, if there were several). Based on Notle's updating, it looks like Rollie Chance had recently been demoted, but his badge was still working as far as granting access. The shooter used that badge. The question on that score is how did he get it and why did he have it.

Video: Mediaite has posted video of Pete Williams' report.

“What his motive was is a long way from determined,” Williams continued.

Ah-he-hem. I am always very suspicious when they start talking about complex and mysterious motives which we may never quite fully understand. I'll leave my speculation at that.

13 Some facts I know about the Navy Yard shooting: - The suspect is black. - The suspect is white. - There is one shooter. - There are two shooters. - There are three shooters. - His name is Rollie Chance. - His name is definitely NOT Rollie Chance. - The Navy Yard shooting was part of a coordinated attack, including one at Bolling. - There was no coordinated attack, no incident at Bolling. - The suspect is dead. - The suspect is at large. - Two people are dead. - Four people are dead. - Six people are dead. - Ten people are dead. - The mainstream media, in the rush to be "first" reporting rumors and inaccuracies, has lost all credibility.

The question on that score is how did he get it and why did he have it.

 

This is just a blue sky theory, but if the guy was recently demoted he may have been issued a new ID to reflect taht demotion,  and the old ID may not have been    rendered inactive yet.     If he had to turn over the old ID it may have been   lying around somewhere for this punk to pick up. 

 

That's just one    idea.

Posted by: WalrusRex at September 16, 2013 03:22 PM (Hx5uv)



****************************


It's 72 virgins, but in fact "72" is not an exact number. As in the Old Testament, those ancient tribal cultures used dozens to count sometimes rather than tens, particularly for sacred things -- you can find references all over the OT to 72 this and 144 that, when what they really mean is "a large number." And "virgin" is synonomous with "young unmarried woman," virginity being a given. And I'm also told (not being an expert on the Koran) that the attention of (a large number of)(young unmarried women) is supposed to be metaphorical -- that if you die in jihad, when you go to heaven you get anything you want, and this is an example, not literally true.

203 I worked as a contract security guy on base (Ft. Lewis before it became JBLM). Part of the problem on bases is that the Provost Marshal has all sorts of restrictive rules on who can carry, even if you have a CCW permit. You have to jump through a LOT of hoops. Basically most people just say, "Eff it, won't carry on base."

204 From the link:

3:10pm - NBC 4 says security video shows shooter entering building with a shotgun. Police believe he might have stolen a semi-automatic 9MM pistol from the first security guard he shot with the shotgun.

Is it too soon to blame Biden for this?

223 It's 72 virgins, but in fact "72" is not an exact number. As in the Old Testament, those ancient tribal cultures used dozens to count sometimes rather than tens, particularly for sacred things -- you can find references all over the OT to 72 this and 144 that, when what they really mean is "a large number." You mean it didn't rain for 40 days and nights, and Jesus didn't fast for 40 days and nights? I'm going to have to reconsider my faith! ; )

269 “What his motive was is a long way from determined,” Williams continued. Ah-he-hem. I am always very suspicious when they start talking about complex and mysterious motives which we may never quite fully understand. I'll leave my speculation at that. -- ace -- Given that the victors write history, no kidding. Obama has made the US Military mercenaries for terrorists to hire; and not just any terrorists, but the same organization responsible for 9/11/01. Given the size of Obama's campaign announcement "personal army just as" well trained, armed and funded as the US Military (eliminating any distinctions), there is less audacity in the creation of a single shooter's story, determining the shooter's motive on his behalf. The media are among the top most generous donors in that way.

323 Here's my speculative theory.  There was one shooter.  There were two people who worked in the building who, contrary to regulations, had brought handguns with them into work because they are paranoid gun nuts worried about the absurd possibility that some gunman might come into their workplace and start shooting people.

I expect that those people who brought guns to work are going to experience adverse career consequences.

"I don't think he'd do this," said Suthamtewakul. "He has a gun but I don't think he's that stupid. He didn't seem aggressive to me." Alexis's motive remains unknown.

394 Allow me to put forth a theory as to Aaron Alexis’ motivation here. Mr Suthamtewakul said…he did not believe Alexis had a grudge against the government. Mr Suthamtewakul said he saw mail that indicated Alexis was receiving regular cheques from the government for “some problem with his feet.” http://tinyurl.com/ku3q8r6 If we can take Mr Suthamtewakul at his word, then Aaron Alexis did not have any right wing anti-government motivations. Indeed, the government appears to possibly have been supporting Aaron Alexis by sending him checks in the mail. So what is the motivation then? By looking at the statements from various articles, which are thus: complained about the Navy and being a victim of discrimination http://tinyurl.com/m7jtvby “He thought he never got a promotion because of the color of his skin,” http://tinyurl.com/kefchjn He also felt racially discriminated against, http://tinyurl.com/ku3q8r6 we see that Aaron Alexis seems to have bought, hook, line and sinker, the Left’s indoctrination with regards to racial victimization. That I contend, was Aaron Alexis’ motivation. So once again we seem to have found, that it’s not so much gun control in general that we need. Rather, what we need to to figure out a way to keep firearms out of the hands of Leftists, because they’re the ones that seem to be unable to handle the adult responsibility of bearing firearms.
