1. Enlisted 1992, less than honorable, 1998.

FYI---free republic turned off their member search.

[winstars]

2. Oh, this could get interesting.... Plenty of years post Army career for all kinds of activities... I

wonder if Sludge will have his sirens on with the "DEVELOPING" banner all huge at his sewer/site...

Freepers move could be a tell, maybe they found him there and scrubbed the books already???

[msanthrope]

6. Not a chance...this dude was one of their own. They will bury it. nt

[sofa king]

13. It looks like they are trying to bury it already.

It would be nice if those people would feel a collective sense of embarrassment and sadness for the victims.

But if that were the case, they would not be what they are.

[Ganja Ninja]

3. FOX is probably busy trying to scrub Hannity's forum. n/t

[winstars]

5. This is no joke, with enough time can they do that effectively???? n/t

[johnfunk]

4. No surprise there -- this would be the last nail in their coffin

Naturally, we'd all "haz a sad" over not being able to mock Rimjob's perpetual scamathons...

[davepc]

9. how many freepers register under their real name?

[msanthrope]

10. You'd be surprised. But that's not how you'd find him on

Freeperdom.

[davepc]

11. How would you find him?

[msanthrope]

15. Come on now, dave...

You think a girl's gonna give away all her secrets to any boy who asks her?

[ChairmanAgnostic]

18. yes?

[msanthrope]

19. Not this girl. nt

[ChairmanAgnostic]

28. sniff. my sad.

[MADem]

17. He managed to miss all the Nahn Wun Wun heavy lifting, didn't he?

Oh wait...he DID get a tattoo!

[Gman]

7. Nothing on Facebook

[msanthrope]

8. I found a Wade Michael Page bouncing all around

the country....from South Milwaukee to Littleton, CO, to an AFP, to Fayetteville.

[unapatriciated]

12. He was stationed at Fort Brag at one time according to this report.

The law enforcement official, who spoke to AFP on condition of anonymity, said the alleged shooter was once assigned to Fort Bragg, North Carolina, and was no longer on active duty at the time of the killings.

[msanthrope]

14. Yep. nt

[unapatriciated]

16. I made the mistake of searching free republic and Michael Page

They are busy trying to connect the Fort Hood, Aurora and Wisconsin shootings to a government phys-op conspiracy.

20. An interesting freeper post...

Claims to be a post on ATF board from shooter:

A letter from Wade M. Page is posted on the ATF website...

“From: Badman400
Sent: Thursday, February 10, 2011 7:19 PM
To: Terrell, Barbara A.
Subject: No registering of long guns
Wake Up!!!!
No more restrictions on law abiding gun owners! These restrictions do nothing about the criminals they are meant to
affect. Why punish and render defenseless the very people that deserve to be protected while HELPING the offenders
with such laws? The only other use for such laws is for government to gain control over the people. This is America, and I
AM THE GOVERNMENT, not you! Remember who you work for, and your oath!
“Laws that forbid the carrying of arms... disarm only those who are
neither inclined nor determined to commit crimes. Such laws make
things worse for the assaulted and better for the assailants; they
serve to encourage rather than to prevent homicides, for an
unarmed man may be attacked with greater confidence than an
armed man.”
-Thomas Jefferson
Sincerely,
Wade M. Page
Stop tying the hands of the good guys!”

27. Sadly, I've seen stuff like that right here in RKBA group. Fortunately, it's rather limited here.

[whathehell]

21. According to the Chicago Tribune...

Some neighbors were questioned as to his original area and at least one

thought it was North Carolina, but no one, at that point was sure.

What they did know was that he had recently broken up with a girlfriend.

You'll find that sort of personal rejection/disappointment rejection frequently

preceeding these types of incidents.

22. Buzzfeed running this pic of him

The Southern Poverty Law Center identifies the man in this photo as Wade Page. Page was apparently the lead singer of the skinhead band End Apathy. The photo is also on the End Apathy MySpace page.

23. The 14 tattoo:

14 representing 14 words written by David Lane, "We must secure the existance of our people and a future for white children."

24. Celtic cross used as white supremecist symbol

http://www.adl.org/hate_symbols/racist_celtic_cross.asp

This is one of the most popular symbols for neo-Nazis and white supremacists. First popularized by the Ku Klux Klan, the symbol was later adopted by the National Front in England and other racists such as Don Black on his Web site, Stormfront, and the racist band Skrewdriver to represent international "white pride." It is also known as Odin’s Cross. It is important to note that the Celtic Cross is used widely today in many mainstream and cultural contexts. No one should assume that a Celtic Cross, divorced from other trappings of extremism, automatically denotes use as a hate symbol.


Stormfront Logo

25. illinois Nazis....

[Lone_Star_Dem]

26. now I'm wondering if that 911 tattoo the witnesses saw wasn't actually a 311.

Not that it matters at this point. He was definitely a raging white supremacist/skinhead POS. I hope all the other POS associated with are having fun dealing with their ATF & FBI investigations.

[freshwest]

33. What's the '311' mean to them? I think Hitler's b-day is big for them, though.

[Lone_Star_Dem]

34. 3x the 11th letter of the alphabet.

KKK.

[freshwest]

35. Thanks..

[louis-t]

29. I have to believe that the Hannitys, Limbaughs, etc

breathe a sigh of relief every time one of these mass murderers turns out to NOT be a right-wing wacko. It was only a matter of time. And it won't be the last time. 'Course they'll call him a 'leftist'. Wait for it.....

[billky]

30. Temple shooter

I find it strange, the time he was in service, I just heard on the news that the FBI had been watching him since 2000.

[TalkingDog]

32. If white supremacists are using the service to train and arm their militias

It is possible he only joined the army for that reason. Which means he might have already been on the FBI's radar.

31. Still need a link on the OP here...

[Rhiannon12866]

36. Thank you!
