The Washington Navy Yard Shooting Isn't About Gun Control. It's About Lunatic Control...

President Obama and democrats would like to use the Navy Yard shooting to revive gun control, but gun control clearly isn't the issue here. Like Newtown shooter Adam Lanza  and Tuscon shooter Jared Lee Loughner, Aaron Alexis appears to have been batsh*t crazy. Apparently, the Navy knew about this. The question isn't how he followed VP Joe Biden's advice and "Bought a Shotgun." The question is how he has a secret security clearance. It's time to revisit the policy of de-institutionalization of the mentally ill.

Via The Smoking Gun:

Six weeks before going on a killing spree at the Washington Navy Yard, Aaron Alexis told Rhode Island police that he was being followed by individuals who were using a "microwave machine" to send vibrations into his body that kept him from falling asleep, according to a bizarre police report.
On August 7, Alexis summoned Newport cops to a Marriott hotel where he was staying. During a 6:30 AM interview, the 34-year-old--who said he was a "naval contractor" who traveled often--told officers that voices were harassing him through a hotel wall, adding that he was fearful he could be harmed.
Alexis explained to police that he had previously gotten into an argument prior to boarding a plane in Virginia, and believed that the person with whom he quarreled had dispatched three individuals “to follow him and keep him awake by talking to him and sending vibrations into his body.” While he had not seen these individuals, Alexis said he “believes they are two black males and a black female.”

Sad Irony: Navy Yard shooter followed Joe Biden's advice....

Liberals and some media were quick to claim the Navy Yard shooter Aaron Alexis used liberals most hated weapon: the AR-15. 

So it takes nine months and two days from Newtown, from 20 dead children and six adults, for someone else to carry the same kind of AR-15 that Adam Lanza carried into Sandy Hook Elementary School into the Washington Navy Yard.

This idiot joined in...

The Wash Navy Yard shooter had 3 guns including  AR-15 assault rifle - same killing machine used at Aurora and Sandy Hook.

That doesn't not appear to be true.

FBI Washington field office just confirmed gunman was NOT armed with AR15. Spokesperson says 1 shotgun and 2 pistols recovered

And from USA Today:

WASHINGTON -- Navy Yard gunman Aaron Alexis cleared a security checkpoint with his contractor ID and carried his shotgun, unassembled, into Building 197 within minutes of starting his bloody rampage Monday, federal investigators said Tuesday.
Investigators revised and refined the details of events at the Naval Sea Systems Command headquarters that left 13 people dead, including Alexis, who was shot to death in a showdown with police.

 Instead of using an AR-15, Navy Yard shooter Aaron Alexis followed Joe Biden's advice:

You don't need an AR-15...buy a shotgun, buy a shotgun...

Obvious: Friend of Navy Yard shooter Aaron Alexis reveals he was a liberal Obama supporter...

At least this is one they won't be able to blame on right wing extremists...

Via Breitbart:

Tuesday, on CNN’s “The Lead with Jake Tapper,” Michael Ritrovato spoke at length about his friend, suspected Navy Yard shooter Aaron Alexis. After expressing his condolences to the victims and their families, Ritrovato then expressed his shock over the actions of a man he described as being “like a brother to me” and a “good-natured guy.”
Ritrovato  went on to explain that two of them had a close relationship based in part on their differences, specifically race and politics. Alexis was black, Ritrovato is white. Ritrovato described himself as conservative and Alexis is “more of a liberal type” who supported Barack Obama:
I would say things like, ‘You know, you are my brother from another mother.’ And he would say things like, ‘You’re my Italian mafia guy from New York.’ So we had things we joked about: Aaron wasn’t conservative like I am. He was more of a liberal type; he wasn’t happy with the former [Bush] administration. He was more happy with this [the Obama] administration — as far as presidential administrations.
