Thanks to Alex Jones for supporting Rutherford Institute and Brandon Raub

This is a powerful statement that raises important questions - and demands swift actions.....link here

"The petition is so devoid of any factual allegations that it could not be reasonably expected to give rise to a case or controversy," said the release order signed by Sharrett, vacating the order of Special Justice Walter Douglas Stokes to detain Raub for 30 days. Stokes, who presides over commitment hearings, also ordered Raub's transfer to the VA hospital in Salem, about 180 miles from his home. Judge Sharrett said he was shocked to find the commitment order contained no grounds for holding Raub."

I've picked on Alex Jones in the past - but that is because I have assigned myself the position -  official gadfly - to keep everyone to the same standards.

Who am I to judge anyone?  Just another taxpaying American citizen.

I've heard all kinds of criticism of Alex Jones - but it is absurd to conclude anything - in my evaluation at least - but that Alex is doing everything he can - more than most - and beating the formerly "mainstream media" literally to death with truth.

His organization is growing and is one of several key players reshaping the battlefield upon which we infowarriors fight.  Success speaks for itself  - as evidenced by the actions of the former dominators of the media - as they incorporate Alex's media products into their info-menu. 

 The video linked below is yet another example that Alex is supporting our troops, not with a bumper sticker, but with timely information where one of OUR MARINE VETERANS was locked up without reason or facts - Brandon Raub - by FBI and local police in Virginia.

Alex brings much-needed attention to the Rutherford Institute and Brandon Raub's case at a this critical time - a time of power-grabs by those intent on disposing of the Bill of Rights.  

I also applaud Judge W. Allan Sharrett for doing the right thing in this case - and hope the Judge does not face harassment for standing up for ALL OF OUR RIGHTS.  

After you watch the excellent interview below I ask you, reader, to consider some questions that arise from this incident* :  

1.   "Something's happened to the police" John Whitehead says in the interview.  Is it possible that the psychological testing used in the past to vet police candidates has been abandoned for a process that favors hiring psychopaths?

2.  "How can we support the Rutherford Institute?" - the answer is DONATIONS from YOU.  Your financial support is required if the Rutherford Institute is to continue their work.  

3.  Why are the participants of Brandon Raub's arrest* - FBI and police in the video - not charged with false arrest?  After all, Judge  W. Allan Sharrett stated that there was no factual basis to Brandon Raub's arrest.

4.  WHO ordered this arrest?  Yes - the FBI and local cops are responsible for actually arresting Brandon Raub - but who gave the orders?  If these orders were not based in fact - then what were the charges based upon?  

5.  If there was no factual basis to Brandon Raub's arrest - on what information were the conclusions of the government psychologists based on?  Why are they not held accountable?  

6.  Why haven't the local police and police chief that justified and participated in this illegal arrest not fired?  Since they have demonstrated via their ACTIONS that they are not concerned with facts when executing arrest orders - shouldn't we ignore their WORDS and fire them RIGHT NOW to SET THE EXAMPLE THAT ANY LAW ENFORCEMENT PARTICIPATING IN ILLEGAL ARRESTS  WILL BE TERMINATED.

7.  If the second judge found that there were NO FACTS to support Brandon Raub's arrest - upon what did the first judge that locked him up base his decision?

8.  Since the question "Have you been committed to the custody of the commissioner of behavioral health and developmental services?" appears on the Virginia application to obtain a concealed carry permit - and some other questions implying mental health - isn't it logical to suspect that such arrests under mental health pretexts are a great way to ensure that "unpopular speakers" can be preemptively disarmed by smearing them with such charges?

9.  Why hasn't there been an immediate inquiry into those submitting false charges against an innocent Marine veteran who did us all a favor by exercising unpopular free speech?  Why?

For those condemning Alex Jones...

Commenters to this blog have attacked Alex Jones.  I've stated that he provides relevant and important updates regarding issues that are at the vanguard of the push by the Feds to restrict our unalienable rights.  One of those rights forbids unreasonable search and seizure.  


"Amendment 4 - Search and Seizure. Ratified 12/15/1791.
The right of the people to be secure in their persons, houses, papers, and effects, against unreasonable searches and seizures, shall not be violated, and no Warrants shall issue, but upon probable cause, supported by Oath or affirmation, and particularly describing the place to be searched, and the persons or things to be seized."

I found these stories today on Alex's site - following through on the "TSA PROBLEM"  :

Another TSA Employee Accused of Rape

TSA Searches Dallas Woman’s Hair for Weapons

TSA official charged in slaying of worker

TSA officer sentenced for theft from passengers

TSA workers seeking ‘secret’ security clearance face new background checks

-----
Is it fair for me to say he's helping get the word out regarding the corruption of the TSA - and following through so the public is reminded how rotten that agency is?  

Is Alex Jones for real?

"As someone who is a regular in-studio guest on the Alex Jones Show -- and an occasional fill-in host on the few days when Alex isn't hosting the show himself -- I've had the opportunity to spend some time with Alex Jonesbehind the scenes. Off the air.

And that's where this story begins to get even more interesting. Because Alex Jonesis the same authentic person off-air as he is on-air. Alex isn't an act, in other words. He's the real deal, and the authenticity of who he is and what he believes comes through 100 percent whether he's speaking to an audience of millions or just chatting with you in the hallway."

?: Glenn Beck And Alex Jones Working Together To Destroy Debra Medina's Campaign For Texas Governor (Rogers Report)

Read entire article here:

" The Debra Medina for Texas governor campaign is clearly being sabotaged by both Glenn Beck and Alex Jones in a carefully staged divide and conquer operation. Medina’s campaign of limited government, lower taxes and state sovereignty has not made the establishment powers happy. When Medina was interviewed by Beck on his show he used the issue of the 9/11 truth movement in an attempt to make her look bad in the eyes of Republican voters. It was an obvious operation by Beck to try to sabotage her campaign in favor of other establishment cronies like Rick Perry and Kay Bailey Hutchinson who are running against her in the Republican primary. Although this sort of action was to be expected from someone like Beck who is an obvious paid propagandist that engages in all sorts of dishonest journalism, it was of more interest to see Alex Jones use the same issue to also demonize Medina. "

Alex Jones: Too Big for us Peons?

Alex Jones hijacks an ongoing protest in an arrogant display of megalomania. Rather than being an ally of the protesters on the scene he becomes a divider bringing confusion to an event already underway. While a "speaking platform" for the event had already been established - with a speaker on a megaphone already talking - Alex Jones appears with his own megaphone, walks up with a small entourage and begins shouting into his own megaphone effectively drowning out those who already had a good thing going.

Why?

My compliments to the balsy folks that confronted Alex Jones - this is exactly the information the public needs to see how "divide and conquer" works.

Jesse Ventura Conspiracy Show

----------------
Take the time to listen to the first segment. Alex Jones challenges viewers to question him on the facts.
Paraphrases from the show:
JV "I can't think of a single benefit of these wars"
JV"If we didn't fight these two wars we would have enough money for health care."
JV"I cannot believe that people are not protesting these wars..."
AJ "The real objective is to launder drug proceeds"
-----------------

-------------------
Quotes paraphrased from the discussion on the 911 episode number 2:

JV "When it came to 911 no one from the govt. would talk to the show, no one from the 911 Commission would talk, no one representing any kind of government agency would talk to the show"

JV "A victim pleaded with me, a victim who lost her daughter and her potential grandchild, her daughter was pregnant the infamous day of 911, and her Mom came to me feeling I could bring about a real investigation of 911 and not the one they did"

Say What you want about Alex Jones - but he nails Big Brother down if you are a traveler - Audio (PCRobert interview at end Excellent)

Good description of Orwell Travel courtesy USA by Alex Jones At the beginning Alex Jones' description of US travel identically matches my own experiences and properly states my identical attitude toward the nanny Orwell-Stalag-Amerika of today.

Also, at the end of the audio clip Paul Craig Roberts speaks with AJ - worth listening to good Q and A. Some paraphrased highlights:

-This year interest rates will go up.
Those whose survival depends upon 0% interest rates will take hit.
Unemployment Increases as result
-16,000 kids in homeless shelters in NYC right now while Goldman Sachs will give out $800,000 bucks to each of its 5500 London staff. Top execs up to 10 Million Pounds.
-Alex asks PCR about Peace Prize Award to Obama - PCR says Orwell's 1984 timing was off - it just took longer for "War is Peace" to become reality in America with the award of the Nobel to a Warmonger. To the guy who started the Pak part of the AFPAK war.
-Alex: Fox News says Obama took 50,000 troops out of Iraq then added contractors instead, code pink endorsing the war - what's going on with this agreement to go into a place no army has ever defeated?

PCR: The worst part is the people over there that are killed (by our actions) . One fifth population in Iraq if you include the dead and displaced resulted from our actions. We seldom kill any of the fighters, we have no right to kill as invaders anyway, but mostly elders and people not in the fight essentially. We are committing a crazed act of murder as occupiers.

Alex: If nobody ever conquered this place why are we there? Opium? 2,300 years of war why why why?

PCR: We are there because of 911, which you and I regard as an inside job...they wanted to invade Iraq - but it was the beginning of a war they could spread ... but now Israeli's have interests there (they have influence), officers in our military get fast upward rise, now they want ten more years which would result in an 18 year-old war - higher pensions, people getting rich...how do you get out, stop - can't claim victory - Obama can't pull out 'cause of the right-wing-crazies - politics of all sorts giving this war momentum may prevent getting out - we will just expire there...

Alex mentions we are in Korea over 50 years and others...
