Iowa Safety Drill Portraying Shooter as 'Anti-Immigration' Pro-Gun Student Canceled

Why did it have to be an "anti-immigration, pro-gun" guy? Why didn't they go with something that is realistic? Seriously, there are all kinds of actual threats out there. They could have made it a scumbag muslim terrorist - very believable. They could have made it a bat-shit crazy dumbass who has had several run ins with the law that were ignored because a family member works for the government - also believable. They could have made it an idiot liberal teacher about to lose their tenure or forced to pay a fair share of their benefits - very believable. Or they could have made the bad guy an seiu thug - also very believable.

But instead, they made it a pro-gun person. Hmm, when, exactly is the last time we heard of a person fitting this description freaking out and mowing down a bunch of innocent school children? Let me see... How about never.

These anti-gun goons can try to spin things anyway they want, but the evidence just doesn't back them up. It's sad really. Why can't they put all that effort into something that is going to make a difference in the world?

An emergency drill that was to play out the scenario of an “anti-immigration” pro-gun student going on a racially-motivated shooting spree at an Iowa school has been canceled due to threats, officials said Friday.

“During the last 24 hours, the Treynor school system has received threats to their employees and buildings due to the planned 'active shooter' exercise, " PottawattamieTreynor School District and the Pottawattamie County Sheriff’s Office, we have jointly decided to cancel the exercise due to these threats which we must consider viable.”

Operation Closed Campus was designed to ensure school officials, emergency responders and support organizations are prepared in the event they face a school shooting, according to the Pottawattamie County Emergency Management Agency.

The agency, along with the Homeland Security Exercise and Evaluation Program, distributed an exercise plan Wednesday to detail exactly how the drill -- to be held at Treynor High School and involving roughly 300 people, local police, hospitals and the Red Cross -- would be carried out.

Along with logistics, the exercise plan also detailed the fictitious backstory behind the mock shootings, which began with the premise:

“In the past 6 months, the City of Treynor and Treynor Community School District has received a significant influx of minority residents,” causing “controversy regarding national immigration policies as well as racial tensions with a few embedded, typically silent, white supremacy affiliates.”

Based on those tensions, a white 18-year-old high school senior who “has been seen with anti-immigration demonstrators” and whose family “is known to be firearm enthusiasts, if not fanatics” starts a fight with a group of minority students “blurting racial slurs and that he is tired of them moving in and stealing jobs and money from Americans” then “pulls a handgun from his waistband, shooting one of the minority students.”

A 17-year-old friend of the shooter then joins him in "firing upon anyone in their path and chasing down anyone who is against their ill-perceived stand,” the plan said.

Critics said organizers were clearly using the drill as a way to portray gun owners and opponents of illegal immigration as terrorists. And some question whether the same motives are behind the cancellation, too.

If Wishes Were Horses...

This some scary stuff. Be sure to check out the link and read the anti-American garbage being spewed by this assclown steven lerner. It's an view inside the mind of a union thug, and it's dangerous. If it's not treasonous they should change the definition.

And T.L.'s description of the media couldn't be any more accurate or troubling. These are the people we have counted on in this Country since there was a Country to provide us with an unbiased view of the events of the day. Those days are over, they have been for a while. Every word they utter is tainted. We can't even trust the weatherman. T.L. may not begrudge them feeding us a skewed view of the world, but I do...

My intent was to write a post about liberty and the delicate nature of it. I intended to make the distinction, at least in my opinion, between liberty and freedom. I was going to talk about the recently released tape of Steven Lerner and the SEIU thug mentality, the absolute un-American nature of this group. (believe me, they let Mr. Lerner go so that he could conduct this operation without ties to SEIU)

In contemplating that, I hit a couple of snags. First, it all ties into Obama and his milieu, how they have conducted themselves. When you consider that his friend is Bill Ayers, who is at least a domestic terrorist, and his former associates are ACORN and SEIU, what else is there to say? Perhaps Barack Obama has not sat in on a discussion like that given by Steve Lerner, but he certainly may have. Those are HIS people. Second, none of this would even be discussed if the press had done its job a long time ago and actually vetted this president while still a candidate.

So, here is what has come out of that soup that has been roiling around in my head: If the press were not un-American themselves, they would have been watching out for guys like this, they would have reported honestly on his shady background, his ties to such organizations. The trouble always arises when we look out at the NBC, CBS, ABC programming and see that most of it supports a liberal point of view. I don't begrudge them that. They own the studios, they can do whatever they want. I stopped watching these channels a long time ago because I was constantly bombarded with liberal messages, liberal encouragement of the decline of the America. They drove me away...
