The "upper echelon" has removed as much power as possible form the locals for decades. "states rights" used to be considered important things...now they are considered to be a euphemism for racism. States rights have been trampled. Everything has been federalized and the NSA/FBI has complete blackmail control of the Senate and legislative bodies....so the local control is eliminated there as well. Look at the assassination of Wellstone and others. Smear campaigns against any local officials that dare oppose the "upper echelon". too much to talk about.

The US government funded ISIS in Syria, so he is right to view them as a enemy.

Whether or not this is sincere I can't say. But, it looks like he is reading from a script or prompter given the pauses and head turns he makes while speaking. Especially here and here . It's quite rehearsed for something so emotionally charged and seemingly "unstable".

Edit: It looks like the time code is ignored through the embedded links. To see the referenced sections just open the YouTube links in a new tab or window.

I think you mean, then you are the next shooter.

TLDW:.... mentally unstable vet asks for like minded individuals to contact him for vague violent response to violent world affairs.... This is so sad on so many different levels

He's either a brainwashed idiot or a mentally disturbed individual, instead of blaming the actual reasons why we are hated in the Middle East (imperialism, Israeli support, drone attacks, the creation of ISIS, invading their countries etc.) he wants payback and violence in the US.

This sort of behavior will only make the situation worse. Israel wants us to fight their wars in the Middle East, its about time we stop getting involved in that region.

He seems emotionally unstable. Upset that marines were killed unarmed, how many Iraqi or Afghani citizens died at the hands of US forces? Or even worse the (double tap)drone strikes in Pakistan and Yemen - Countries the US has not even declared war with. I cannot feel any sympathy for this guy or the dead marines, in fact I feel guys like this create more terrorists by being part of the 'war on terror', something that cannot be won with firepower alone.

It might be the video but that car look kinda small..
