Crazed gunman arrested at Trump Tower

August 3, 2016 By: Stephen Dietrich

An armed man at Trump Tower refused to cooperate with authorities Tuesday night and barged into a restricted area — and the Secret Service was forced act.

Thankfully, no one was hurt in the incident and, according to The New York Daily News, the unidentified man was taken into custody by New York police officers after the confrontation.

Authorities say that Secret Service agents stopped a man armed with a gun at the Trump Tower on Fifth Avenue in New York City just after 10 pm EST after the man walked through a restricted area. It has been reported that the man was removed in handcuffs for refusing to comply with authorities, but authorities say he has not yet been charged.

It remains unclear if the man was a threat to Republican presidential nominee Donald Trump, or if Trump was even present at the building during the time.

Trump is due to give a speech in Florida Wednesday afternoon, following an appearance at a rally in Virginia on Tuesday.

      First, reading the article does not fit with the titlel of “Crazed Gunman”. It says he did not copoerate with authorities and was arrested. That doesn’t prove him to be a “Crazed Gunman”. I hate it when the press, Conservative or Liberal try to Sensationalize subjects. Many people are too quick to jump to conclusions without knowing the facts. We all have the right to Presumed Innocence until Proven Guilty. Too often authorities try to put a label on someone to criticize or demonize them to win the public opinion to their side before the facts are known.

    The banksters need a war desperately right now. They’ve tried so hard in Syria and it just hasn’t worked. Now they’ve got crazy Trump actually saying we should stay out of the Middle East and focus on our own problems, and people are listening… What’s a self-respecting globalist financier to do?

    Without the US military killing people and breaking things, there is no future growth path for them. So they send their puppets like Kasich and Romney out to talk up the fight against “evil” and threaten Russia and China, hoping to fool those dumb white ‘Murkins one more time into sending their sons off to die for God and Country and Goldman Sachs.

    The IMF is in bed with the Turks, Saudis and NATO, they are worried about a Trump audit of the Federal Reserve… and about Trump and Putin teaming up to destroy them once and for all… Trump is a vote for peace, and peace does not make money for the weapon industry. The pseudo secular media and their globalist masters profit from destabilization.

    Sódom Hussein Obama could not get Congressional support for an invasion of Syria. If he could, he would…

    Puzzle piece number 1. Why are we being told about these 51 State Department dissenters ? Obviously because Obama’s State Department wants us to be told.

    Puzzle piece number 2. Why was this story being pushed as the Saudi Prince who would be king was visiting with Obama ? Sauds want Assad gone so an oil pipeline can be built. Russians have stated that attacking Assad means war. Why start war with Russia ?

    Puzzle piece number 3. Hillary still controls the State Department. Or at least her people are still there. Russia was on the verge of releasing the emails they hacked before Hillary deleted them. The oil pipeline is what drives the Sauds and Qataris.

    Retaining control of US foriegn policy is what drives Hillary’s flying monkeys… Along with the millions the Saudis and Goldman Sachs have paid her.

    When someone knowingly barges into a restricted area I believe it is safe to call them “crazed.” I would’ve chosen another word but crazed is not off the mark. Most would not break into a building or any restricted area. Most respect our laws.

    When Trump is elected, I believe he is going to uncover massive corruption in our government…..massive. Trump will tell us all the truth. He tells the truth. Unfortunately, we have had decades of lying politicians to include POTUS’s. It is time to clean house after Obama leaves….really clean it!
