Weird Pitchfork Incident #2

There's been another encounter of the pitchfork kind, and it happened before the Ohio authorities released the information about T. J. Lane escaping from prison with a pitchfork. Lane had a pitchfork with him during his 9/11 escape, but the public did not know about it until the evening of September 15, 2014.

Oklahoma City resident Shaun D. Walsh, 41, was arrested much earlier (around 12:30 am) on Monday, September 15, 2014. He was charged with punching his ex-girlfriend and chasing her with a pitchfork - technically domestic assault with a dangerous weapon and malicious injury and destruction of property.

The events occurred in the 2800 block of SW Grand Blvd, near South May Street, on the south side of Oklahoma City, Oklahoma.

According to the victim, Walsh said, “F*** you, b****. You get what you deserve,” as he punched her. After he stopped punching, the victim told police Walsh went into another room of the home and grabbed a three-prong pitchfork. She said he began chasing her around the house before she could make it out the front door. Once outside Walsh demanded the victim give him the keys to her car. She refused, and that's when she said Walsh used the pitchfork to break the passenger side window to her car. He then dropped the pitchfork and left the scene on foot, according to News9.com.

Police caught up with Walsh and took him to Southwest Medical Center to be medically cleared before he was transported to the Oklahoma County Jail.

Pokémon Invades White House Lawn, Two Navy Jets Crash, And Other 9-11 News

September 11th came and went without any major events occurring, thankfully. Or maybe something did happen and it was just kept off the media's radar. Or perhaps a dangerous probable incident was discovered, and we will never hear about it.

A few items that did catch our attention that made it to the news include the following.

Pokémon come calling at the White House...

There was an intrusion into the White House lawn of a man in Pokémon gear. The trespasser was wearing a bright yellow Pikachu hat and carrying a plush doll of the Nintendo franchise's mascot.

Not a smart thing to do anytime, but on 9/11, of all days, really? Not funny, actually.

The Daily Mail noted:

Secret Service officers have apprehended a man who jumped over the White House's North Fence and appeared to be heading in the direction of the presidential residence.
President Obama was not in the White House at the time of the incident, as he and wife, First Lady Michelle Obama, were performing community service to commemorate the 13th anniversary of the September 11 terrorist attacks.
The incident occurred at 6.20pm local time, forcing the White House into a lockdown which ended less than an hour later.
The unidentified man, who was allegedly dressed in Pokemon merchandise, entered the grounds on the Northern side of the Presidential grounds and was immediately apprehended.
The officers with their guns drawn ordered the man to lie down.

The intruder was arrested. He has not been identified. For more, read "Moment armed secret service agents took down intruder in Pokemon mask on White House lawn on 9/11 anniversary". Or here or here. (H/T C.W.)

On 9/11, two U.S. Navy fighter jets crashed into the Pacific Ocean while carrying out an unidentified mission, Navy officials reported Friday. The two F/A-18 Hornets were operating on the USS Carl Vinson carrier when they crashed, the Navy said. The two jets were from Strike Fighter Squadron 94 ("Mighty Shrikes") and Strike Fighter Squadron 113 ("Stingers").

Other events that we know about, which occurred during the Sept. 9-11, 2014 window:

9/11 - Albany International Airport bomb scare, false alarm: "About 6:30 a.m., deputies were called to the Transportation Security Administration checkpoint by the TSA bomb appraisal officer for a person with what appeared to be an IED, deputies said. Matter of fact, Albany County Sheriff Craig Apple said, it was just a circuit board with wires. Also, the person carrying this device was an active member of the Navy accompanied by two others from the service. The three were training at Knolls Atomic Facility in Milton, and are stationed at a Trident Training Facility [Bangor] in Silverdale, Wash." Source.

Submarine Group Nine is stationed at Silverdale, Washington State.

9/11 - New Albany, Indiana Univeristy of Indiana shooter scare, false alarm: "Students on the campus at Indiana University Southeast said it was one of the scariest hours they've ever experienced, especially after commemorating 9-11 on campus. Just before 1 p.m. Thursday after an alert went out that there was a gunman on the grounds." A student had reported a rifle sticking out of a camouflage backpack. "School surveillance cameras found the student and the umbrella that was sticking out of the backpack. He had no idea he was the target of a massive lockdown with state, county and campus police." Source.

9/11 - School shooter escapes, then captured: Prison officials at the Allen Correctional Institution said Lane managed to scale a perimeter fence around 7:30 p.m. along with two other inmates. Those inmates were also captured. Lane was found almost six hours later near a church just north of the prison in Lima, about 200 miles west of Chardon. See more, here.

9/10 - Drudge Photo Bombs Obama: An apparent conservative photo hoax of President Obama's appearance during his ISIL speech shows him with Devil horns, and is spread by the Drudge Report. See more, here.

9/9 - Devil appears, then is removed: In Vancouver, British Columbia, a 9-ft-tall statue of the Devil made a very dramatic appearance in that city on Tuesday morning, September 9, 2014. The Devil was erected on a location that had formerly held a statue of Christopher Columbus. It was taken down the same day by city officials. See more, here. 

David Icke-Inspired School Shooter T. J. Lane Escapes From Prison on 9/11

Update: T. J. Lane was taken into custody about six hours after his prison break.

Convicted school shooter T. J. Lane -- serving life in prison for killing three fellow students at Chardon High School in Chardon, Ohio on February 27, 2012 -- has escaped from prison, Ohio law enforcement officials reported. Lane escaped at 7:40 p.m. on September 11, 2014, with another inmate, Clifford Opperud, from the Allen Correctional Institution in Lima, Ohio. Both currently remain at large.

Lane, who was 17 at the time of the rampage, was sentenced in March 2013, to spend the rest of his life in prison without parole.

During Lane's 2013 trial, he wore a tee-shirt to court that said "Killer." When he addressed the court, he flipped his middle finger and used profanity toward those in the audience, including the victims' families.

One of the most intriguing items of media interest at the time of the shooting was that T. J. Lane had posted that he was "inspired" by David Icke (shown below). It created an uproar from Icke followers.

DavidIcke.com noted in 2012, "Twilight Language may have been one of the first sites to note that according to the Facebook profile of T. J. Lane, one of Lane's favorite books is The David Icke Guide to the Global Conspiracy." 

Yes, I believe I was first, as I merely researched his background on his Facebook page.

The following is my report on the shootings, with updated information, at the time, as it was happening:

Columbine copycat? A cafeteria shooting. Photos on the Internet. Name game links to the Valentine's Day NIU shooting. On February 27, 2012, there was news of a classic school shooting.

Three students eventually died and one was arrested and was identified as Thomas J. Lane.

At noon on February 27, 2012, Chardon Police Chief Tim McKenna announced in a news conference that one of the victims had died. The first deceased student was identified as Daniel Parmertor, a 16-year-old high school junior, by a spokeswoman for Cleveland's MetroHealth Medical Center. His family issued a statement requesting that their privacy be respected. When Lane opened fire, Parmertor was in the cafeteria waiting for a bus to the Auburn Career Center vocational school in nearby Concord Township, where he studied computer science.

At 12:42 a.m. the next day, a second student, Russell King, Jr., 17, was pronounced brain dead at MetroHealth Medical Center. King, a junior, studied alternative energy technologies. He was enrolled at both Chardon High School and at the Auburn Career Center. King's family released a statement thanking the public for support and offering sympathy to the families of the other victims. They also said that his organs would be donated as he had wished. A witness, Nate Mueller, said that King had recently started dating Lane's former girlfriend. Other student witnesses said that it appeared as if Lane was specifically aiming for King, indicating that he was the first to be shot. The students stated that King had previously threatened to beat Lane up. They told reporters that Lane had taken up weightlifting with the intention of fighting King.

On February 28, it was reported that Demetrius Hewlin, the third student who was transferred to MetroHealth, had died. His family also expressed their sorrow for their loss in a statement to the press. Friends of Hewlin said that he liked to work out and wanted to be on the football team. Hewlin's mother, Phyllis Ferguson, in an interview with ABC News said of her son, "He wasn't a morning person and he was late for school. But that one day he wasn't late. We were running a little late, but we weren't late enough. But it's okay. It's in God's hands. Let His will be done." When questioned about what she would say to the assailant, she said that she would forgive him, because most school shooters did not know what they were doing. She explained that her son's organs would be donated and that one of the recipients was a child who was within days of death without a transplant.

How about names? Looking a bit closer, you will find that the "name game" dwells here too. If you translate the monikers of the tragically deceased victims, you will discover literally, the fact that "three kings" (The Holy Trinity?) were killed in Ohio in Chardon, supposedly randomly. 

The three young men (shown above) who were killed in the Ohio school shooting of February 27th, were named Demetrius Hewlin, Russell King Jr., and Daniel Parmertor.

So, what we find is this:
Demetrius = King of Macedonia 294–288 BCE
King = King
Parmertor = Of Irish origin, from an Old Celtic word meaning "high" or "noble."

The first Chardon victim was identified as Daniel Parmenter, (as well as Daniel Parmentour in one earlier confused report). Others use the spelling Daniel Parmentor and Daniel Parmertor. In a strange coincidence, the victims of the February 14, 2008, Northern Illinois University shooting were students Gayle Dubowski, Catalina Garcia, Julianna Gehant, Ryanne Mace and 20-year-old Daniel Parmenter.

Late on the day of the shooting, The Guardian in London wrote the name as "Daniel Parmertor, 16." Intriguingly, some of the Guardian's wording also reflects material here, including this sentence: "In an odd twist, another similarly named student, Daniel Parmenter, 20, was killed four years ago this month in a shooting in Northern Illinois University." Furthermore, also during the evening, Reuters was using the spelling "Parmentor."

On Tuesday, February 28, 2012, officially, the names of the victims were announced: "The students who died from their injuries have been identified as Daniel Parmertor, 16, and Russell King Jr., 17."

What of February 27th? It is also a date of some significance in Nazi history. February 27, 1933, was the date of the Reichstag fire: Germany's parliament building in Berlin, the Reichstag, is set on fire. (BTW, the cornerstone of the Reichstag was laid on June 29, 1884, by Kaiser Wilhelm I, who was the patron of the three Berlin Grand Lodges. Wilhelm I died in 1888, Dreikaiserjahr, the Year of Three Kaisers.)

The Reichstag fire on February 27, 1933, is seen as pivotal in the establishment of Nazi Germany. It is the one incident leading directly to the increased power for Hitler and his party.

According to the Facebook profile of T. J. Lane, one of Lane's favorite books is listed as The David Icke Guide, and a person that inspired Lane is noted as "David Icke."

The father of suspected Ohio school shooter TJ Lane has been busted several times for violence against women, including TJ's mom, according to court records. He had been warned to stay away from the boy and his mother, reports the Cleveland Plain Dealer. Dad Thomas Lane Jr. and TJ's mom were each charged with domestic violence against each other, and Lane served time in prison after trying to suffocate another women he later married. It's not clear what kind of relationship the father eventually maintained with his son. Friends said TJ was being raised by his grandparents, according to the newspaper.

As the news was breaking...

A school shooting has been reported at Chardon High School near Cleveland, Ohio, local law enforcement officer says (Monday morning, February 26, 2012).

Civil deputy Erin Knife with the Geauga County Sheriff's Office says the shooting was reported at Chardon High School. Gunfire at a high school outside Cleveland injured a number of students Monday morning, and at least one suspect has been taken into custody, officials said.

FBI agent Scott Wilson said that there was one suspected shooter, who is in custody. He said four students were wounded in the shooting and one died.

CBS This Morning correspondent John Miller reports that at least one of the students was critically injured.

The shooting was reported around 7:30 a.m. at the 1,100-student Chardon High School about 30 miles east of Cleveland, said Civil Deputy Erin Knife of the Geauga County Sheriff's Office. CBS affiliate WOIO-TV in Cleveland reports the shootings happened in the cafeteria before classes started for the day.

Television news footage showed anxious parents escorting children away from a school building, and ambulances could be seen outside. WOIO-TV reports the high school was evacuated and students were taken to an elementary school to be picked up by their parents. Students on school buses were dropped off back at their homes.

A spokeswoman for Cleveland's MetroHealth System said a medical helicopter was dispatched to the high school. Schools in the area were locked down.

Bob Herp, a Chardon trauma nurse, was at a command scene at a local Wal-Mart store where he said helicopters were on the ground.

+++++Name Game+++++

Chardon is a city, about 30 miles east of Cleveland, of about 5,100 residents.

The name "Chardon" has two meanings of note. As a French word, it means "thistle." As a Sioux word, it means "sand bar."

The town of Chardon was named after one of the wealthiest men in America, Peter Chardon Brooks, who gave the land to Ohio. Peter Chardon Brooks was the son of Rev. Edward Brooks and Abigail (Brown) Brooks. Rev. Brooks was one of the "high Sons of Liberty," the elite of the Masterminds of the Boston Tea Party, who assembled at the Green Dragon Tavern in Boston. Reverend Brooks was at "Lexington on the 19th of April, 1775, with his gun on his shoulder, in his full-bottomed wig." Peter Chardon Brooks established his first insurance business at the corner of King Street (today's State Street) and Kilby Street, at the Bunch-of-Grapes Tavern , the site of the first grand lodge of Masons in America.

After the Siege of Boston ended in March 1776, "General Washington was handsomely entertained" at the Bunch-of-Grapes Tavern, as was Marquis de Lafayette (see also, the Fayette Factor), and General John Stark (who fought at the Battle of Bunker Hill, a site denoted today by a Masonic obelisk, seen above).

"I Like Icke" Fans, T. J., and the Chardon Shootings

T. J. Lane, the alleged shooter at Chardon High School, Chardon, Ohio.

You have read much here lately of the Chardon shootings. Twilight Language may have been one of the first sites to note that according to the Facebook profile of T. J. Lane, one of Lane's favorite books is The David Icke Guide, and a person who inspired Lane is noted as "David Icke."

This blog's publishing of the initial Icke details caused quite a reaction among David Icke followers, who left comments filled with anger and disgust that this blog would merely report these facts and other hidden data.

Yet, not even the surface of the David Icke phenomenon was touched.

David Icke (above) reminds some folks, in appearance and in his cult following, of Marshall Applegate (below, seen as part of UFO's Bo and Peep) of later Heaven's Gate infamy.

Furthermore, T. J. Lane left other clues about his David Icke affection that were not mentioned.

Deeper exploration of T. J. Lane's "likes" reveals that many of his preferences reflect his David Icke (born April 29, 1952) leanings. For example, the only other person who "inspired" T. J. Lane is listed as Credo Mutwa (born July 21, 1921), a Zulu Sangoma or Shaman from South Africa. David Icke produced an interview of "his friend" Credo Mutwa, in which the Zulu shaman reveals "the story of the reptilian takeover of Planet Earth."

The February 27th notes on this blog about the Icke "favorites" of T. J. Lane resulted in fiery remarks (see comments here). To gain more insights about the Icke fan reaction, I interviewed the authors of a new book, Ritual America that is getting much attention among twilight language and conspiracy readers:

Adam Parfrey's and Craig Heimbichner's Ritual America.

Adam Parfrey & Craig Heimbichner

Loren Coleman (LC): In your new book, Ritual America, you mention a guy named David Icke. The alleged school shooter in Chardon, Ohio, T. J. Lane wrote on his Facebook page that one of the people who inspired him is David Icke. No one has blamed Icke for the Chardon shootings, but nevertheless, in a preemptive strike, there's been an amazing outpouring of Icke fans who have come to Icke's defense even though he's not been accused of anything. Why do you think this has occurred? 

Adam Parfrey (AP): It seems to me that the charismatic and compelling speaker David Icke mixes up believable concepts of high corporate crime with strange conceits that open up those risky ideas to derision—the reptilian alien villain, for example. The result of all this is to isolate Icke's audience into a cultic group of truth seekers who feel privileged to know and believe this strange mashup, and as cults are want to do, protect their charismatic truth-sayer from people who just don't "get it."

Craig Heimbichner (CH): One of the phenomena of American ritual culture, including the larger sociological "ritualizing" of response described in our book, is the intense emotionalism surrounding both secret brotherhoods and those who criticize them. We include several dramatic examples of this in our chapter, "Raising Tubal-Cain," which title is a play on the Master Mason password derived from Genesis 4:22 in the Bible, referencing the descendant of Cain, first killer. We also include David Icke in this chapter along with an excerpt representing his thinking on the Illuminati, the Matrix, the Lower 4th Dimension, and Satanism. 

Icke positions himself as an uber-critic of the Brotherhoods, tying them in to accusations of Zionism and alien intrigue. Those who are devoted to his thinking would naturally see criticism of Icke as part of that grand plot and hence I am not surprised that they are reacting as though a battle is on. Icke has cultivated that high-stakes mind-set, although I hasten to add that I don't blame him for any violence or shootings.

LC:  Despite what Icke admirers state about Icke being peaceful in his writings, doesn't Icke promote some bizarre notions that some humans are shape-shifting reptilians? 

CH: David Icke certainly does. We quote Icke in our book: "The reptilians and other manipulating entities exist only just outside the frequency range of our physical senses. Their own physical form has broken down and they can no longer reproduce. Thus they have sought to infiltrate human form and so use that to exist and control in this dimension. They chose the Earth for this infiltration..."

Kent Tayler cartoon

LC: How might a teenager internalize Icke's theories?

CH: Throw in hormones, video-games, drugs, social/family problems, and the belief that some X-Files style nightmare is the truth--aliens are leading the country--maybe even the classroom--and it's anyone's guess. It's conceivable that someone might decide to fight a nightmare by creating another one. It's a great tragedy however we finally explain it.

LC:  In what context does your Ritual America place David Icke?

AP:  Ritual America includes David Icke's material to show the modern day version of the anti-Mason, a lot of it risky and believable, and some of it is just so "out there" to cultivate its believers as wacky and isolated cultists. 

CH:  As I mentioned above, we place David Icke in a context of over a century of anti-Masonic authors, specifically quoting him on the Illuminati (after quoting James Wasserman, a current Epopt of the Illuminati in the OTO who gives an entirely different perspective). We write: "People don't quite know how to interpret the work of David Vaughan Icke, the 1952-born speaker and writer who famously describes leaders like George W. Bush and Queen Elizabeth II as being reptilian aliens. For Icke, borrowing from Nazi literature, situates Freemasonry as a Zionist-Illuminati structure with unlimited resources to drain human beings' energy and resources."
