Let's Talk Conspiracy Theory...!

Sometimes so many theories pop up about a particular event, we become almost immune to them.

There are times, however, that all the facts come to light and the conspiracy theory is proven mostly correct! As much as we hate to admit it, recent events are pointing more and more to our very own government being involved in some very nasty activities. From illegal wiretapping, to surveillance drones being used to spy on average citizens, there are way too many incidents to mention here! However, here is one story from the folks over at Listverse that you might just find interesting!

Heart Attack Gun

Theory: The CIA’s Heart Attack Gun




This weapon exists. The CIA actually invented it with taxpayer money in the late 1960s to early 1970s. It was not disclosed until 1975, when Senator Frank Church displayed it to a subcommittee investigating the CIA’s illegal activities. They are specifically forbidden from directly killing anyone in the performance of espionage and intelligence-gathering. The gun was designed to be untraceable. It fires a bullet made of ice, about 0.11 inches wide, less than the diameter of a BB, which has been brushed with a minute amount of shellfish toxin. This toxin induces a myocardial infarction in any human, regardless of size or physical fitness. The bullet then melts leaving no trace of any kind. Autopsies would discover the presence of shellfish toxin in the bloodstream, but if the victim has died of a legitimate heart attack, unnaturally induced or not, an autopsy is unlikely. The entrance wound of the dart would appear about as minor as a mosquito bite.

There is no consensus on who, if anyone, the CIA has assassinated with this gun, but it is most likely that they have used it. Theorists point to Andrew Breitbart, a conservative media mogul who published less than flattering stories and details about President Barack Obama. He had promised in the months prior to his death that he would publish proof that Obama’s presidency was illegitimate. Breitbart collapsed on the sidewalk in a Brentwood neighborhood of Los Angeles on 1 March 2012 and was taken to a hospital where he died of a massive heart attack at the age of 43, despite being relatively fine health. He was not seriously overweight, but the coroner report states that cardiomegaly caused his heart to fail.

It is possible that the gun was used to assassinate Mark Pittman, the financial journalist who, in 2007, predicted the ongoing American economic recession, which was caused by subprime mortgaging. During the subsequent federal bailouts of major financial companies, Pittman famously sued the Federal Reserve for mishandling taxpayer money. The case is still on appeal. Pittman, however, died on 25 November 2009 in Yonkers, New York, in the very same circumstances as Breitbart. He was walking down the sidewalk and collapsed from a heart attack. He was 52. but possible victims notwithstanding, the heart attack gun does exist, and the CIA invented it. They could have had only one purpose in store for it. The conspiracy theorists got this one right.

Certainly is some food for thought here, isn't it? That's the thing about a good theory...it gives us pause to think!

How about we have coffee on the patio this morning? I'll rustle up some biscuits and sausage, OK?

Always thought there was something very fishy about Breitbart's death, as did a lot of people. I guess we will never know for sure.
I'll bring eggs from the girls to round out your great breakfast, Mr. Hermit!

Definitely "food for thought". Every I know thought Breitbart's death was most unusual. Of course after everything that has happened lately it wouldn't surprise me at all if the gun was legitimate.

Strange world we live in when the tin foil hat crowd are often proven right.

Some times things should not be spoken of. Those men should have been quiet until they had all the proof and then spilled it all.

Coffee and a wonderful sounding breakfast too.
