Mind Control And Gun Control

Just a week before the National Rifle Association has its annual convention in Denver, Colorado, two or more insane teenagers (just four miles south of Denver) shoot and kill 13 of their classmates with firearms and then kill themselves. This seriously challenges the law of chance. Anyone familiar with the history of so-called “gun control” in America, beginning with the “Texas Clock Tower Sniper”, to Lee Oswald, to Sirhan Sirhan, to James Earl Ray, and through to Patrick Purdy (Stockton schoolyard shooter), and Colin Ferguson (Long Island railway shooter) will smell a rat.

How many of these senseless “random” incidents will it take for the American people, in their fear, naivete and ignorance, to willingly surrender their right to keep and bear arms? If you wanted to disarm the citizenry of America there is no better way than to barrage the excitable public psyche with horrendous acts such as the Colorado High School massacre. Hitler disarmed his opponents, including all Jews, also promising “public safety.”

It is time for concerned Americans, whether they own guns or not, or whether they support or oppose “gun control,” to seriously consider the possibility that the murderers in many, if not most, of these bloody incidents were under the mental influence of “handlers,” or, to put it bluntly, mind control experts.

Before you toss me off as a conspiracy kook, I ask you to take the time to research the below listed clinical studies and scientific discussion on hypnosis. These will not meet your standard Psych. 101 assurance that “you cannot be hypnotized and forced to do anything that is against your moral fiber.” Most obviously, who can say what the moral fiber of those two Denver teens actually was? Not much, we can agree on that. I’ll let the scientific papers listed below make my case. You decide about how you feel about “gun control” and “victim disarmament” after you’ve contemplated this material. You should be able to retrieve all these papers on the Internet. Additionally, search keywords “hypnosis/coercion” and “hypnosis/antisocial behavior” for other material. Improved search engines will turn up far more than what is listed.
