White House Shooter & Occupy DC Protester Oscar Ortega-Hernandez Arrested in PA
Posted by Jim Hoft on Wednesday, November 16, 2011, 12:11 PM
The White House shooter and Occupy DC protester Oscar Ortega-Hernandez was arrested this afternoon in Pennsylvania.
WTOP reported:
The Secret Service says the man wanted in connection with Friday’s shooting near the White House has been taken into custody.
Oscar Ramiro Ortega-Hernandez was arrested at the Hampton Inn in Indiana, Pa. at about 12:35 p.m. Wednesday and is currently in the custody of Pennsylvania State Police. When reached by phone, an employee at the hotel said he’s been instructed by police not to speak to reporters.
Ortega-Hernandez was sought by federal authorities after reports of gunfire near the White House on Friday night while President Barack Obama was traveling to a summit in Hawaii. Witnesses heard shots and saw two speeding vehicles in the area. An assault rifle was also recovered.

People are shot in this country all the time , and most of them die too. No one makes it a big deal, just look at Chicago’s history of daily violence .
What is so special about this shooting ? No one got hurt . Why the over-reaction?

Great that it only took a few hours for the Feds to identify and apprehend this perp – but somehow a year after Brian Terry’s murder, we have no idea who authorized it, when, or why.

Shooting at the White house is considered to be in bad taste. They will probably process him through night court and release him on his own recognasense, especially if he is here illegally.
tommy mc donnell commented:
shooting at the white house, fire bombing a building, rapes, murder, drug overdoses, and acording to the democratic politicans(like frank lautenberg aka the cadaver) the tea party was a violent dangerous group. still have not heard one member of american tass refer to the OWS people as violent or dangerous.

Phony. Who leaves an assault rifle at the scene of a shooting?
‘Initial reports are indicating that a suspect or suspects fired at the White House, then left a gun on the ground while fleeing the scene. No reason has yet been given why the perpetrators of the shooting would leave a large assault rifle at the scene that would make it far easier for authorities to implicate them in the crime.
It is interesting to note that as soon as the story broke earlier this morning, comments poured in sympathetic to President Barack Obama – almost as if a group was at the ready prepared to manufacture those comments when given the order.
…
Insider: No…that card will be played out sooner. And it’s too broad. They would need something much more…specific to Obama. The ultimate in a sympathy vote. And it’s been talked about. I assure you of that. These people are laying out every conceivable possibility to remain in power. Gettin’ real serious now…
Ulsterman: I don’t know.
Insider: All the ingredients are in place. Falling approval ratings. A big uptick in divisive racial talk…the GOP primary race gettin’ on, which has upped the anti-Obama rhetoric. Occupy Wall Street stuff. An aborted terrorist attack in America. The president crisscrossing the country talking the same old sh-t, except playing the victim card even more than before…don’t tell me for a second some of this isn’t all being played out for a very specific possibility. If needed, they will try and pull it off. I got no doubt about it now. None.
Ulsterman: So what is it? Pull what off?
Insider: A manufactured threat against the President of the United States. Something easily digested by the media and the American public. Not a real threat – something totally of their own making. They will use it if they need to – got no doubt whatsoever about that. Jarrett has approved the idea…and did so a long time ago. There were whispers of it during the 2008 campaign. McCain was so god-awful it never reached a serious consideration…but the plan was discussed. If needed – they were willing to go that route. It would be the ultimate use of the race card in the history of American politics. And…it would likely work if they got away with it.
Ulsterman: They would go that far? Risk something like that?
Insider: You don’t need to ask that question. Not after what we’ve discussed this past year. Not after what I’ve told you has proven out over and over again. So stop asking the fu—ing question. You need to accept the fact…if you haven’t done so yet – you need to accept the fact these people are playing for keeps. I told you – how many times? How many times have I said it? These are not Democrats. These folks are something else entirely. And they are willing to push the country – all of us, right against the fu—ing wall. Hard.’

John H Dorge commented:
Now you’re just labeling everyone who does something wrong as an “Occupy DC Protester”? You might notice that the link provided explains that the nearby OWS was searched. Which makes sense, since it’s a gathering of people nearby. All reports, however, explain that OWS was completely unconnected. So. Really excellent “reporting.”

‘The case against the alleged killers of Border Patrol Agent Brian Terry has disappeared from federal court records, apparently sealed by a federal judge.
In May, federal prosecutors won an indictment against Manuel Osorio-Arellanes and others, and they announced it with a press release. Only Osorio-Arellanes’ name was visible in the indictment, but there were blacked-out words where other defendants’ names go.
Osorio-Arellanes was charged with second-degree murder and was not considered the likely shooter. He had been wounded during the gunfight that left Terry dead.
But in the ensuing months, the case disappeared from court records.’

How convenient for Holder and Hussein.
Elkins commented:
Where does it say, in any report, that he was an Occupy DC protester?
All I see is that they searched the ODC camp for him, unsuccessfully, because they
believed he might be crashed out there.
He wasn’t, so labelling him as such is a leap.

dunce commented:
The perp is said to have a criminal and mental health record. If he has a mental health record by law he can not buy a gun. If he has a criminal record he can not buy a gun by law. With these two strikes against him he is unlikely to land or hold a good paying job. Ak47s are very expensive and he should not have been able to buy one even if he had the money. The question of who abandons a car and an expensive weapon is answered by , someone who did not have to pay for them, which raises the question of who did and why. His name also raises the question of his immigration status. Does he ,regardless of his status , have ties to mexican drug cartels or American based gangs? Enquiring minds want to know.
Howey commented:
Why are no dems calling for his resignation. Surely that cant ALL think this was ok.

Who wrote the reports? The Fort Hood shootings weren’t terrorist related either. Admit it. The scum was an OWS follower.

Your demand for journalistic integrity is a little late. Jared Loughner was called a Tea Party member, even though he had nothing to do with the Tea Party. What’s good for the goose is good for the gander. Enjoy what your side has wrought.

‘Nothing about this is real.
Obama wasn’t even in town when the “shooting” happened.
I heard that the shooter was supposed to be 700-800 yards away. The muzzle velocity of an AK-47 is 715 meters/sec, making him have to aim 35+ feet over his target. Dooes he look like he knew that?
Does he look like he can aim and shoot at a target that far away?
If he was on the run from Occupy DC, and ended up in Pennsylvania, how did he get so clean, well dressed, and well fed looking? If I was on the run, I’d look like crap.
Before the shooting he was detained by the Police? HUH?
“Police believe Ortega-Hernandez is mentally ill. He has an extensive record, ranging from domestic violence to drug charges.”
So just where did he get an AK-47 in Wash DC?
We are being scammed.’

Sheffield Dave commented:
@BuffaloBob. You wondered how he got to Pennsylvania? One theory might be that he hopped a train. A fellow railfan (train enthusiast) posted this photo on Monday, thinking nothing of it:
http://members.cox.net/dbdavies/news/news.htm (Go to the last full-sized photo).
The railroad in question goes from Washington to Cumberland, Maryland, and then into Pennsylvania (though this particular train diverges at Cumberland into the mountains of West Virginia).
Tell me that this guy doesn’t look similar to the suspect.

Another occutard commits a crime that is disassociated with the movement itself, as soon as it occurs. He is portrayed as a religious nut, rather than a occupy D.C. Nutjob. Liberals are pathetic.
