Yeah, just a quick glance through the subsequent reports on William Alemar shows the media is taking it’s cue from the prosecutor who is apparently racing to cover her tracks on this;<\/p>\n

Fox News<\/a> loves a veteran with a gun story;<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/center><\/p>\n

The Charleston Daily Mail<\/a> quotes the prosecutor;<\/p>\n

The Martinsburg Daily Journal<\/a> quotes the prosecutor who says Alemar was “highly intoxicated”;<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/center><\/p>\n

Yeah, that sounds likely. I know I always got “highly intoxicated” and then threw on a ruck and body armor and ran my ass off. If he was so dedicated to attending Ranger School that he was actually training for it, I doubt he was getting sloshed.<\/p>\n

Even if he was drunk, how is that “terroristic”? Berkeley County Prosecuting Attorney Pamela Games-Neely says in the Journal article;<\/p>\n

“First of all, it is the correct charge. We are aware of it and it is the correct charge under the circumstances. That is not to say that there are not other issues going on with this young man. We are coordinating that between multiple agencies at this point. He was highly intoxicated at the time in addition to this and that gives everybody great cause for concern, especially around children,” Games-Neely said.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Yeah, bring up “the children” – must be an election year. Since when is being around children with a toy gun a “great cause for concern”. Ditz. If the Martinsburg Police is going to start locking everyone up who gets near kids while they’re drunk, there won’t be anyone left in the State.<\/p>\n

Commenters to The Journal<\/a> are already blaming PTSD for his runs and reported state of intoxication. Idjits. Hollywood has made us all practicing mental health professionals, apparently.<\/p>\n

And having empty “clips” isn’t a crime, no matter how many he had even in the bluer states. Especially empty “clips” for a toy gun. Never mind that the word is “magazines”, media dumbasses.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
