Florida Atlantic U. Prof Claims Navy Shipyard Assault Staged
Florida Atlantic University topped the 2013 list of “Worst Placed to Attend College.”
The following story shows that the institution is pulling ahead in the race to the top….of the same list for 2014.
A Florida Atlantic University communications professor known for conspiracy theories has posted a series of pictures, audio clips, memos and news reports on his blog that he believes adds up to indicate the Navy Yard shooting in Washington D.C. was staged.
Professor James Tracy, who argued the Sandy Hook Elementary School massacre “did not happen as reported — or may not have happened at all” and called the Boston Marathon bombings a “mass casualty drill” has posted his finding under the headline “Artifacts From The DC Navy Yard Shooting” on his Memory Hole Blog.
“Nothing seems to be adding up,” Tracy says in one of the videos on his blog post, adding terms like “crisis actors” to his analysis. He calls his “smoking gun evidence” an Associated Press article on the shootings date-stamped September 15, 2013–one day before Navy Yard shooting. He says he doesn’t buy the idea it could have been “just a glitch.”
The blog is not affiliated with Florida Atlantic University.
Much of his data was sent in by his blog’s readers, and includes photos that “depict one apparent shooting victim being attended to by pedestrians, as police officers stand by and an individual in plainclothes zones off part of the scene with crime tape,” Tracy states.
Other alleged evidence cited on the blog includes a 45-minute audio from the shooting that “at the very end it is determined that they will not be needing a large staging area for non-existent (my words) casualties.”
He describes another series of pictures as sketchy as well: “In this photograph pedestrians attend to an apparent shooting victim while a police officer (or soldier) looks on close by. Another figure that appears to be in plainclothes is visible demarcating area with crime scene tape. … First responders at the scene exhibiting perplexity and/or boredom.”
The blog also notes: “Witnesses have been documented stating that evacuation drills were known to have been taking place at the Navy Yard in the lead-up to the September 16 shooting event.”
Most news outlets, however, have identified the gunman as 34-year-old former Navy reservist Aaron Alexis. Police say he shot and killed 12 people in a Washington Navy Yard on Monday.

Couldn’t have been staged. The “actor” is all wrong for the show. Black, liberal, Obama voter and mentally ill. With a shotgun, Biden’s proclaimed preferred weapons.
Now, if it had been some white, conservative, militia minded, tea party guy with an AR-15, yeah…staged would be a possibility.
But generally those tea party movement people are armed and dangerous but they aren’t nearly as emotionally vulnerable as your average liberal when it comes to firearms.
You posted,”But generally those tea party movement people are armed and dangerous”. That is an interesting thing to say. If you have any evidence to support that statement, other than your own fears and opinion, I would like to see it. All of the crime statistics that I have seen indicate that tho people with concealed carry licenses have a lower incidence of illegal weapon use than the general public at large. I would definitely agree, however, that they make life more dangerous for criminals.
