Robert Lewis Dear

Robert Lewis Dear (born 1958) is the accused killer of three people on November 27, 2015 in Colorado Springs, Colorado. Reported to news outlets immediately as a white male shooting from a Planned Parenthood clinic, the case quickly ballooned into a “Christian,” “pro-lifer,” and “Republican,” story as demanded by the left, despite details emerging that he was anything but.

## History[edit]

Dear had lived in North Carolina, and since at least 1997 he had prior run-ins with the law in that state as well as South Carolina, which included domestic violence, animal cruelty, voyeurism and leering.[1] Neighbors would describe him as either unremarkable or delusional; some would state he was aggressive.[2][3] He was aloof and alone; his home living included a North Carolina cabin and a Colorado trailer, both without electricity or running water. Contacts with neighbors were few, and they would describe rambling topics on any subject except religion or abortion.[4]

The shooting incident took place just before noon local time, when Dear was alleged to have begun shooting indiscriminately; according to witnesses the first shots were fired from behind a Chase Bank branch at 3306 Centennial Blvd.[5] The three dead included University of Colorado, Colorado Springs police officer Garrett Swasey, 44, as well as the wounding of five additional police officers and four bystanders.[6] Just over a quarter mile up the street at 3480 Centennial Dear broke into the lobby of a Planned Parenthood clinic and barricaded himself there for over five hours; he could not make it from lobby into the main part of the clinic due to secure doors, and he would randomly fire what had been described as a “long gun”. It was during the sixth hour of the crisis that he calmly surrendered to police.

## Liberal distortions[edit]

Before Dear was booked, the liberal media weighed in on the incident to push a version describing Dear as a “right-wing” fanatic, based on a white male with a gun gaining access to an abortion clinic and shooting, despite the fact that Dear began the incident well to the south of the clinic, a distance of over a quarter-mile. Rather than as a Republican or conservative, Dear listed on his voter registration card “unaffiliated”, officially meaning he subscribed to no party. He also bizarrely listed himself as female (the Colorado Voter page for this information was taken down on November 28),[7][8] with a liberal blogger creating the impression that it was the right claiming that Dear was a trans-gender.[9] He was also claimed to have said to arresting officers “no more baby parts,” according to NBC News.[10] Vicki Cowart, president of Planned Parenthood of the Rocky Mountains, rejected speculation and went straight to dogma, stating Dear "was motivated by opposition to safe and legal abortion" and a "crime against women receiving health care services."[11]
