Video: Cops Set Up Trap to Generate Revenue, er…Catch Dangerous Criminals
Right here is where “public safety” meets revenue generation.
Are you familiar with the term “highway robbery”? Check out what the cops are doing in this short video:
Brilliant, no? They apparently get some guy (probably undercover cop by the way he keeps seemingly looking for a signal) to hold up traffic by crossing the street at this crosswalk 100 times, then a patrol car waiting in the wings pulls over the people who don’t stop when this man repeatedly crosses the street over and over.
He just walks right out in front of traffic multiple times here, not even waiting for a break in traffic flow or looking both ways first like our mommas taught us.
What about this is “protecting and serving,” by the way? This is more like a criminal racket set up to extort money from people who are otherwise minding their own business just trying to get where they’re going on an American street.

MSNBC Shocker: Nearly 9 in 10 Support Constitutional Carry
For those who wonder why MSNBC has lost nearly half of its viewers, this might serve as yet another example. A poll, hosted on MSNBC.com, asked a simple question:
Do you think people should be allowed to carry guns in public?People were given three options for answering and, with 90,000+ votes cast, here are the current numbers (as of July 6, 2014):
- 88% – Yes! The Second Amendment guarantees it. (79,000+ votes)
- 8% – No, it’s too dangerous. (7.266 votes)
- 4% – Only for self defense. (3,636 votes)
I would not look for these poll results to be featured on any network shows in the near future. Remember, this is the same network that defended Rhode Island State Senator Josh Miller after he told a gun rights activist to, “Go F*ck Yourself.”

Roastnears

"*I was home –don’t know if I was married or not. Mother was writing letters at her desk and I was in the library. She called to me and asked if I knew how to spell roastnears. I called back and said r o a s t i n g e a r s . There is silence and she appeared at the library door in shock. She had never realized where the word came from!"
*Anne graduated from UNC Chapel Hill in 1951 back when it was still sane. My mother graduated from St. Mary's back when it was the last two years of high school and the first two years of college. She was almost expelled because she crossed the street in front of the school with her male cousin, but without a chaperone! :)

Ben Carson: America now in 'pre-fascist' era
Saul Alinsky or Alexander Solzhenitsyn? Whose path will America follow?
Dr. Ben Carson, a noted author, brain surgeon and possible Republican candidate for president, says the country has already gone far down the path of Alinsky, but it’s not too late to pull back from the brink of authoritarian socialism.
As Americans prepared to celebrate their freedom this Independence Day, Carson sat down with WND founder and CEO Joseph Farah and offered a sobering view of the current state of the country.
In the light of NSA spying, government taking over health care and the IRS intimidating tea-party activists, Farah asked if there were any lessons that could be drawn from Solzhenitsyn’s experience living under Soviet communism during the Cold War.
“I remember back in the day, Solzhenitsyn was asked ‘what went wrong in the Soviet Union’ and what made it the nightmare police state that it was?” Farah said. “And he said, ‘We forgot about God.’”
Carson agreed with that assessment. He said he encourages people to read the works of not just Solzhenitsyn, but those of his historic adversaries – Vladimir Lenin, Karl Marx and Alinsky.

General: Border crisis threatens U.S. existence
America’s porous southern border and the recent surge in illegal immigration is more than just a “humanitarian crisis,” claims the top U.S. general in charge of Central and South America, it’s a threat to the United States’ very existence.
Marine Corps Gen. John Kelly is commander of the U.S. Southern Command, or SOUTHCOM, charged with responsibility for the Caribbean Sea and all lands south of Mexico.
Particularly in regards to the drug trade, murder rates and terrorist activity brewing in Central America, Kelly says, the waves of Latin Americans sweeping through Mexico and illegally into Texas presents a threat to the U.S. every bit as serious as Iran or North Korea.
“In comparison to other global threats, the near collapse of societies in [this] hemisphere with the associated drug and [illegal immigrant] flow are frequently viewed to be of low importance,” Kelly said in an interview with Defense One. “Many argue these threats are not existential and do not challenge our national security. I disagree.”

Feds to Bring in Riot Squad Against Illegal Immigration Protesters
Via comment by Sioux on Border Meltdown: Obama Delivering 290,000 Illegals...
As illegal immigrants continue to spill across the U.S.-Mexico border, federal authorities are attempting to relocate the migrants from South Texas to housing facilities in states across the nation. One such facility is located in Murrieta, California, where a large group of protesters recently blocked a bus full of migrants from arriving. The protesters remain there, adamant that illegal immigrants don't get dumped in their town. But soon the concerned citizens may be forced to step down--Breitbart Texas has learned that federal agents plan to arrive in Murrieta on Monday with riot gear to ensure that another busload makes it to the housing facility.
Jeremy Oliver, a resident of Temecula, California--a town that neighbors Murrieta--told Breitbart Texas that local police officers warned the protesters that "it's going to get ugly."

Agreed 100%. Just let me die in my bed.
What's wrong with just leaving old folks alone to live out their last days as they wish?
I will slightly, ever so slightly concede the point about driving as older folks are sometimes dangerous to others when they drive but I just don't remember any old folks out shooting randomly at innocent people in the street. No, it's young folks, mostly already felons, who are doing that.
As for family deciding what is best for their parents, there is a bit too much of that as well. Oh mama we don't want you living alone, it's not safe. So they lock mama up in a place she doesn't want to be to endure the rest of her years when all she wants to do is live out her life in her own home. Death is inevitable. If you are in your 90's why would you want and why would your family want to take away your freedom just to extend your life for a few more months?
The truth is, most folks put their parents in some sort of "facility" so they don't have to be bothered with them any more. My mom will be 96 this month. She still lives at home alone. She still drives. Her license was renewed last year and is good until she is 99. She has already limited where and when she drives on her own without me having to tell her to do it. She's earned the right to live out her years as she pleases, where she wants to live. If she tells me it's time for her to move to a facility I'll do what I can to help her. Until then I try to make sure she has what she needs and is safe. If something happens to her at home and she dies there, so be it.
She'll go the way she wants to go and I only pray that I'm allowed the same dignity.
Border Meltdown: Obama Delivering 290,000 Illegals To U.S. Homes
The vast majority of 50,000 unaccompanied youths and children who have illegally crossed the Texas border during the last few months have been successfully delivered by federal agencies to their relatives living in the United States, according to a New York Times article.
A second New York Times article report revealed that officials have caught an additional 240,000 Central American migrants since April, and are transporting many of them to their destinations throughout the United States.
The 290,000 illegals — so far — are exploiting legal loopholes that allow them to get temporary permits to stay in the United States.
Experts say that President Barack Obama’s administration has failed to close the loopholes and is unlikely to deport more than a small percentage of the illegals, despite the high unemployment rates among American Latino, African-American and white youths, and the strapped budgets of many cities and towns.

Wheelchair-Bound Man Kills Home Invader
A South Carolina homeowner would have been at a distinct disadvantage to a man who invaded his home early Thursday.
Orlandous Brown, 33, suffers from cerebral palsy and is confined to a wheelchair.
But the Easley, S.C. man had a gun and used it to defend himself against 26 year-old Atlanta native Darin Lowe, according to The Greenville News.
Both exchanged gunfire in Brown’s living room. The wheelchair-bound man prevailed, however, shooting Lowe several times, killing him. Brown was shot as well but suffered non-life-threatening injuries.

Brandon Smith 2013: The Real Reasons Why The Liberty Movement Is Preparing To Fight
Via WiscoDave
Regardless of what they might say about us in the future, these are the reasons why we will fight, and our pledges to resist are not empty assertions. We will stop the course of tyranny from completing in this country and in this era, one way or another. If this makes us “extremists”, or “terrorists”, then so be it. I, for one, am tired of the long running game of lies and reserved rhetoric. They know a fight is coming, and we know a fight is coming. Let’s just admit it and be done with it. Their greatest weakness is that they have to use deceit, propaganda, media monopoly, and false flag violence in order to convince the public that they are the “right side”. All we have to do is continue telling the truth, and stand fast…

Sheriff, feds: Rancher must be held accountable
Via LH
*Did you expect to have rifles trained on the crowd of men, women and children and not to have them pointed back at you?
U.S. Bureau of Land Management officials say they agree with a Nevada sheriff's position that rancher Cliven Bundy must be held accountable for his role in an April standoff between his supporters and the federal agency.
Clark County Sheriff Doug Gillespie said *Bundy crossed the line when he allowed states' rights supporters, including self-proclaimed militia members, onto his property to aim guns at police.
"If you step over that line, there are consequences to those actions," Gillespie told the Las Vegas Review-Journal. "And I believe they stepped over that line. No doubt about it. They need to be held accountable for it."
