Alleged gunman Paul Ciancia, shot in the face and handcuffed:
Because who would ever think conspiracy kooks are anti-government?
Quote:
The 23-year-old man who allegedly killed a TSA official at Los Angeles International Airport yesterday was carrying a one-page ?manifesto? that included references to the ?New World Order,? the Federal Reserve and ?fiat currency,? according to a knowledgeable source with ranking law enforcement contacts.
Paul Anthony Ciancia, who allegedly wounded three other TSA workers before being shot and critically wounded himself, also expressed antagonism toward the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) and its chief until she resigned in August, Janet Napolitano, the source said. Ciancia?s note called former Secretary Napolitano a ?bull dyke? and contained the phrase ?FU Janet Napolitano,? the source said.
Ciancia?s language and references seemed to put him squarely in the conspiracy-minded world of the antigovernment ?Patriot? movement. The New World Order refers to a longstanding conspiracy theory that today, in its most popular iteration, claims that global elites are plotting to form a socialistic ?one-world government? that would crush American freedoms. Often, the root of the alleged conspiracy is traced to the 1913 creation of the Federal Reserve and the adoption of fiat currency ? paper money that is not backed by gold, as it was once was in the U.S.
