Aaron: Time To Unarm U.S. Police!

By James Donahue

Psychic and Prophet Aaron C. Donahue launched a scathing attack Sunday on what he called a gang of boot-jacked thugs that gunned down a frightened child in a Florida school restroom last week because he brought a BB gun to school.

Donahue said the Florida police and the media are spinning the facts in the case in defense of the police. He said what occurred in that Longwood, Florida school, however, was a cold blooded act of murder by a gang of more than 40 helmeted, armed members of a police S.W.A.T. team who ganged up on a frightened and defenseless child.

“They knew it was a BB gun,” Donahue said. “The parents were pleading with the police not to kill their child. The boy was scared and hiding in a bathroom stall. There was no reason to shoot him.”

Donahue said as a psychic he envisioned the event as it happened and it infuriated him. “I can’t let this go. He was surrendering. He came out with his hands raised, but he was still holding the BB gun. They blew his brains out.”

The only reason the news has not called it a death is because the body was being mechanically kept alive so that the boy’s organs can be donated for transplant.

What happened in Longwood, Donahue warned, is a clear sign that our society is falling apart. “The officer that shot him should be put on trial for murder one. He should go to prison for what he did,” he said. “And we should take the guns away from our police. They have been given too much authority and they have shown that they lack the responsibility that goes with it.”

Donahue said one of the reasons America is a violent and barbaric nation is because the police are generally people of low mentality who are given all of the equipment needed to go to war against the people. They not only carry handguns, police now are equipped with protective bullet-proof vests, bullet-proof helmets, and military-type automatic weapons with banana clips that can fire off shots like machine guns.

This is what confronted 15-year-old Christopher David Penley once school personnel reported that the boy went to school packing a pellet gun and displayed the weapon in a scuffle with other students.

Donahue said Penley was a young boy who was confused because he had just broken up with a girl friend and he felt threatened by another boy in the school. It was a typical teen-age conflict among children during those awkward years between puberty and adult-hood.

Instead of dealing with the situation and perhaps counseling Penley, school authorities panicked, evacuated the school, and called the police.

Police told reporters the youth was suicidal and brandishing a handgun that looked like a 9 mm Beretta. They said a red tag on the barrel, that would have helped identify the weapon as a pellet gun, had been painted over. When the boy raised the gun he was shot.

But Donahue said there was nothing to stop the police from painting the gun in their own defense. And he said the boy’s weapon was not aimed at the police, he simply pointed it straight upward when he raised his arms and stepped out of the bathroom stall  to surrender.

“That child was trapped in the bathroom. There was no reason they couldn’t have tossed a stun bomb in there, or smoked him our, or maybe talked to him,” Donahue said. The police have non-lethal weapons now. There is no reason to ever have to shoot anybody. What were the negotiators? What were they doing while this was going on?”

“Here we had a highly trained S.W.A.T. team, over 40 armed, armored and dangerous grown men plus the local police and professional negotiators hunting one pellet gun toting child. They chased him into a bathroom where he was hiding in a stall when they charged in, their guns drawn.”

Donahue said the incident has made him so angry he feels that he cannot let it rest. He said he wants changes made in the way American police departments operate. Not only should the officers have their guns taken away from them, he said he thinks all candidates for police jobs should show an IQ of at least 100.

He said the great danger in America today is confronting armed thugs in uniforms who have been given too much authority.

“There are very few times when any of us ever need a police officer,” he said.
