Far Left Activist Slashes Throat of Man He Mistakes For Governor – Media Silent

Casey Brezik – a leftist slasher you’ve never heard about.

22-year-old Casey Brezik, a far left student at Metropolitan Community College — Penn Vally, thought he had stabbed the governor in Kansas City and was disappointed when he learned that the victim was actually the school’s dean of instruction, Al Dimmit Jr.

Ed Driscoll reported:

Ever hear of Casey Brezik? Neither did I, until now. At the American Thinker explains how a story that doesn’t fit the accepted MSM template doesn’t bubble up to the national news:

In September 2010 Missouri Gov. Jay Nixon was scheduled to speak at Penn Valley Community College in Kansas City.

At some point, wearing black clothes and a bullet-proof vest, 22 year-old Casey Brezik bolted out of a classroom, knife in hand, and slashed the throat of a dean. As he would later admit, he confused the dean with Nixon.

The story never left Kansas City. It is not hard to understand why. Knives lack the political sex appeal of guns, and even Keith Olbermann would have had a hard time turning Brezik into a Tea Partier.

Indeed, Brezik seems to have inhaled just about every noxious vapor in the left-wing miasma: environmental extremism, radical Islam, anti-capitalism, anti-Zionism and Christophobia, among others.

In his “About Me” box on Facebook, Brezik listed as his favorite quotation one from progressive poster boy, Che Guevara. The quote begins “Our every action is a battle cry against imperialism” and gets more belligerent from there.

On his wall postings, Brezik ranted, “How are we the radical(s) (left) to confront the NEW RIGHT, if we avoid confrontation all together?”

i remember that. and that’s a reason they might want to neuter the net – if something falls down the memory hole someone will remember and bingo people will be reminded with a click of a computer key. competition to the msm shaping of the news to fit their storyline.

The MSM only tells us what they want us to know, everything else just isn’t important!

The sin of omission is just as bad as the sin of spin! One day, not sure when, the MSM will just destroy it self. That day I hope is close. This is exactly why they are trying to destroy talk radio and to have the enternet regulated with one of their own as overseer. WE MUST STOP this right now or we lose.

OK, it is understood these “truth to power” news worthy items never make it to State Run Media, so why don’t we make sure it gets out there via more Right Media sources?

Will this be on Hannity’s show? How about Bill O’Reilly? Of course Geraldo and Shep would NEVER let this get on their shows.

Seriously, trolls come to conservative sites to regurgitate their puke, they don’t take away from stories such as this one, and spread the news back to their Leftists sites because they are the ones who make up these people’s mentality.

I do not care for Bill O but he has the largest viewership of all cable opinion shows, let’s get this news out their where the Moderates and Independents can see.

Moderates and Independents tend to live in their own little worlds. Bill O is one of them, however, if enough facts are there, he will report on it.

Jim, please ask your media friends to get this out there. I try to post your articles on blog sites but it isn’t enough.

As soon as I saw the story, the source, and after the first sentence I knew it had to be Jack Cashill’s work. The man is an American treasure being wasted at Ingram’s Magazine.

The upside to Ingram’s is that Bob Ingram left one helluva trust fund to keep it going.

While I still watch Fox, I now view them with some suspicion. It seems they only offer up just enough to stir the pot, and thus help with the rapidly spreading discontent within the nation. I fail to believe the insidious force’s bent on our destructing, would fail to miss the one outlet that did not help their cause.

Which would explain the Commies in D.C. drive to control the internet.

I wonder why the media didn’t cover the story in depth? Sure would go well with the hate filled rhetoric story.

Are you serious? The media was not silent. This is old news.
He was a schizophrenic, not a leftist. Not that Hoft ever had any credibility but he makes us conservatives look worse all the time.

Worth noting there’s a story on Brezik right now at well-respected right-of-centre Canadian news aggregator http://www.NewsWatchCanada.ca which questions whether there was a media cover-up and links to an American Thinker article from this past week

This clearly should be better covered by media and maybe it will happen now as more and more mainstream media are exposed to it and pick it up

*Rep. Gabrielle Giffords is a moderate “Blue Dog” democrat, who was specifically targeted by the hard left for voting with the Republicans to pass the FISA Amendments Act of 2008. Caitie Parker, who knew Jared Loughner personally in both high school and college, has described him as “quite liberal”, “left wing”, and a “political radical”. Loughner had spoken with Giffords at an event in 2007 and criticized her afterward. The Tea Party didn’t even exist yet, and Sarah Palin was virtually unknown outside Alaska.
*The Pentagon metro station shooter, John Patrick Bedell, was a registered Democrat who had spoken out strongly against George W. Bush, the U.S. military and the Iraq war, and was an advocate of marijuana legalization.
*Patrick Edward Purdy, drug dealer, homosexual prostitute, strong critic of the Reagan administration–walked onto a Stockton, CA schoolyard in 1989 and killed 5 children with his Chinese-made AK-47. Purdy had carved the word “Hezbollah” into the stock of his firearm, and on his flak jacket were the words “Libya”, “PLO” and “death to the Great Satin” [sic], i.e. America.
*James Oliver Huberty, whom according to acquaintances had complained about how Ronald Reagan and his administration were “hurting the poor”, and were also allegedly to blame for Huberty losing his job–walked into a McDonald’s in San Ysidro, CA in 1984 and killed 21 people, including a baby and elderly individuals.

Gimme a break. A simple Google search reveals that this story was duly reported in the Kansas City Star after it happened and was picked up by the Wichita Eagle, the Riverfront Times, a blogger in South Carolina and many other news sources, and RFT is as in the tank as NYT. Guv’nor Nixon was not even there. It’s really hard to even attempt murdering someone who is elsewhere. The stabbing victim was not fatally injured. Beck constantly admonishes us to trust but verify. So please do. I used the following seeds to learn the truth:
jay nixon assassination attempt
Casey Brezik
Man described as anarchist is charged in attack on Penn Valley dean

If I can do it, so can you.

This story hardly rates the attention it’s getting 4 months after the fact. Yes, our biggest threat to National Security is the loonie left anarchists and union thugs like those that did the mugging at the rusty karniemon Townhall, but let us not be distracted by hype such as this and maintain our focus.
