James Holmes: A Member of Occupy's "Black Bloc"?

After the spate of baseless accusations claiming Aurora gunman James Holmes was a member of the Tea Party,. I hesitate to report on speculation.  However, should the connection between Holmes and OWS bear out, the media will frantically try to cover it up,  so as to protect themselves and other Occupy supporters such as Barack Obama and Nancy Pelosi.  Based on that eventuality, I figure let's throw the evidence out there, without making a declarative  statement, and let's see what happens next.  Not really brave, I suppose, but better than turning away in fear from the next Occupy march....

You want a motivation for James Holmes' murderous rampage during the midnight showing of Batman? Here's one, from PI Bill Warner:

Based on my investigation of the Occupy Black Bloc terrorists, that began in November of 2011, and my interaction with Occupy Movement members in Florida, it is my opinion that James E. Holmes fits the profile of a 20 something Black Bloc terrrorist and that his shooting up of the Aurora Co movie theater was payback for the Batman movie slaming the OWS.


Hmmm...certainly, some people really do have their nose out of joint about the way the Occupy movement has been portrayed (accurately?) in The Dark Knight Rises.  Is the Aurora attack a friendly warning from the harder edge of the Occupation that cultural dissent from the party line will be punishable by death?

But what exactly is Black Bloc?  From earlier this year:

A black bloc is a tactic for protests and marches, whereby individuals wear black clothing, scarves, ski masks, motorcycle helmets with padding, or other face-concealing items.[...] The clothing is used to avoid being identified, and to, theoretically, appear as one large mass, promoting solidarity.


A tactic that the organizer of OWS appeared to endorse.  But where's the proof that Holmes was Black Bloc?

Check out the beginning of this video, where for a short time Occupy seemed to claim Holmes as their own. Certainly Holmes dressed the part as well. His behavior certainly would be in character; the “Black Bloc” faction of Occupy has targeted law enforcement in other instances, and three members of the group are facing charges of attempting to kill cops in Chicago. It has become clear the “booby-trapping” of his apartment with trip wires and bombs was intended to kill the most likely next persons to enter that apartment, namely law enforcement.





So Holmes had a motivation, he dressed the part & played the part, but where is the smoking gun?  Where is the definite photo/blog post tying him, as currently rumored, to Occupy San Diego?

Currently, there is none.  Which doesn't mean it doesn't exist, only that is hasn't been discovered.  Yet.

Unless, of course, there is no tie to "Occupy" at all.  Although even Occupy San Diego refuses to make that claim in their statement on James Holmes and the Aurora Massacre - instead, they use it as an opportunity to bash the Tea Party:

If it turns out that the individual had ever participated in any Occupy activity, along with millions of Americans, in a unique forum where NO ONE was denied the chance to contribute, then it means as little about the Occupy movement as the many acts of violence connected to known Tea Party supporters mean about the Tea Party movement's goals.

 Actually, it means LESS, since Tea Party sympathizers have been found trying to bomb the border after hearing calls for landmines along the Rio Grande at a Phoenix Tea Party formal speech, for example, whereas the Occupy movement has always stood TOTALLY AGAINST ALL VIOLENCE against people, in every statement, every GA and among the organizers of every major event.

Well, the last sentence in that statement is false, even though they add the disclaimer "against people", so as to keep their street cred with Occupy Oakland.  Still, see below...are cops not people?  Ask James Holmes, I suppose...



What else is Occupy San Diego lying about?

And for the real conspiracy theorist, I give you this:

THIS WAS STAGE, THEY WANT TO PASS THE UN TREATY, IN TWO WEEK”S OBAMA WILL WANT TO TAKE ALL YOUR GUNS, AWAY FROM YOU. I FEEL FOR ALL THAT HAVE LOST THEIR LOVE ONE”S I DON”T TRUST ANY GOVERNMENT THESE DAY”S THEY WILL DO ANY THING TO HAVE CONTROL OVER US. AND IT IS COMING SOON. I FEAR FOR THOSE WHO ARE RAISING CHILDREN IN THIS DAY, LIVING IN DANGEROUS TIMES.

Not to mention the fact that OWS did not really start until Sept 17 2011. When Homes was in Colorado attending the University of Colorado. So Holmes is better than Houdini himself. Holmes can also be in 2 places at once!!! AMAZING!! Oh no that means he can be somewhere else right now!!! The right wing was upset about Tea Party relation. But they JUMP all over OWS? PATHETIC!
