Since the U.S.-led invasion of Afghanistan in the wake of the 9/11 attacks, the area under opium cultivation in the country has increased 23 fold to an area nearly ten times the size of Washington, D.C., while production of the illicit drug has skyrocketed 18-fold, from 185 metric tons to 3,300.

Opium cultivation and production has thrived over the course of the Afghanistan war despite a dramatic drop after the U.S. and NATO ended their combat mission in Afghanistan and withdrew most of their troops at the end of 2014.   Continue reading “Post 9/11 Afghanistan: Opium Cultivation, Production Increases Nearly 20-Fold”

One out of four Americans will develop cancer in their lifetime. More than 350,000 people die every year from cancer in this country. And the sad truth is, it is entirely preventable, due to one simple fact: GREED.

For hundreds of years, British sailors died by the thousands every year from scurvy. Physicians were completely baffled by this dread disease. They believed it was caused by a virus or bacteria of some type. It wasn’t until 1747 that John Lind, a surgeon’s mate in the British Navy found that citrus fruits (lemons, oranges)  could counteract the effects of scurvy, but his recommendations would not be implemented for another forty eight years, thus finally ending the scourge of this disease. It was simply nothing more than the lack of vitamin C.   Continue reading “Big Pharma’s Lies Exposed – Cancer IS Curable”

Exactly as many suspected, the overly judicious first use of Louisiana’s new Blue Lives Matter law proves the measure will be abused to give police the status of protected class — as a man who verbally insulted officers has now been charged with a hate crime.

Per the ridiculously unnecessary Blue Lives Matter legislation, the voluntarily undertaken occupations of police officer, emergency responder, and firefighter are protected against hate crimes the way historically persecuted categories like race, gender, creed, religion, and sexual orientation have been — making crimes specifically targeting cops hate crimes with enhanced penalties in the eyes of the law.   Continue reading “It Begins: First Man Charged with Hate Crime Under New Blue Lives Matter Law for Offending Cops”

One of the side effects of a nihilistic society — a place that covers babies in clothing with skull designs on it, a place where police and military host “zombie apocalypse” drills, a place where everyone is dehumanized from the time they are born — is that you wind up with the younger generations becoming obsessed with death.

This isn’t your average child’s play. We’ve seen kids killing or almost killing themselves in a number of utterly idiotic ways. The duct tape challenge where a kid almost died tried to escape from purposefully having himself duct taped to a tree. The fire challenge where young adults hit record on a video camera, then douse themselves in alcohol or a liquid containing it before lighting a match or a lighter. The knockout game.   Continue reading “Another Deadly, Dumb Kid Trend: Eleven Year Old Hangs Himself Playing “The Choking Game””

The U.S. House of Representatives passed legislation by voice vote on Friday that would allow the families of victims of the Sept. 11, 2001, attacks to sue Saudi Arabia’s government for damages, despite the White House’s threat to veto the measure.

The U.S. Senate passed the “Justice Against Sponsors of Terrorism Act,” or JASTA, unanimously in May. Opponents of the bill said it could strain relations with Saudi Arabia and lead to retaliatory laws targeting U.S. citizens or corporations in other countries.   Continue reading “House votes to allow Sept. 11 families to sue Saudi Arabia”

An illegal alien and convicted child rapist was able to shoot two California corrections officers on Saturday because Hillary Clinton’s State Department refused to enforce the law and take actions that would have forced his home country to repatriate him.

On Saturday, Thong Vang, a 37-year-old Laotian national, shot and critically injured two corrections officers in Fresno, California. Vang had previously served sixteen years in prison for gang raping three girls under the age of 14.   Continue reading “Meet Thong Vang: Illegal Alien Child Rapist Hillary’s State Department Did Not Deport, Shoots Two Officers”

As if the world couldn’t get any crazier, the committee in charge of nominating prospective recipients of the Nobel Peace Prize has recently nominated a terrorist organization for the award. The White Helmets, the notorious mop-up wing of Nusra (Jobhat al-Nusra or Jobhat Fatah al-Sham) will now be in the running for not only the cash prize that comes with winning the Nobel but also the undeserved and cult-like appreciation of winners  as if, in some parallel universe, the award was actually given to people who promote peace.[1]  Continue reading “Terrorist Support Group Nominated For Nobel Peace Prize”

The FBI became one of the nation’s largest distributors of child pornography last year during an investigation that critics are comparing to Operation Fast and Furious.

The Seattle Times is alleging that the FBI, for two weeks, operated a confiscated server that allowed the distribution of 48,000 images, 200 videos and 13,000 links to child porn – with as many as 100,000 people logging on during the time in question, between Feb. 20 and March 4.   Continue reading “The FBI DISTRIBUTED Child Porn Last Year During Top-Secret Investigation”

Denver, CO — Calling law enforcement for assistance has been a fatal mistake for thousands of American families — but that painful reality didn’t occur to Colorado mother, Tobi Ferguson, until her son joined the astonishingly long list of those killed by police.

Instead of the much-needed assistance Tobi hoped her call to officers would provide for her troubled son, Michael, police showed up and killed him.   Continue reading “Mother Called Police Because Her Son Had a Warrant — Cops Showed Up and Killed Him”

As millions of Americans struggle to decide whether to elect a volatile narcissist or a calculated warmongering criminal as their next leader, one Minnesota town is doing politics right — they just re-elected a dog to his third term as mayor.

Duke, a nine-year-old Great Pyrenees, was first elected mayor of Cormorant, Minnesota in 2014. The first time he won, it was by accident. The small town of just over 1,000 people held an election in which residents could pay $1 to vote. Duke won the race with twelve write-in votes and was treated to an official inauguration.   Continue reading “A Dog Is Re-Elected Mayor for a Third Term, Proving Politicians Are Useless”

Apparently in South Carolina, a million dead bees are not enough. Fresh on the heels of the annihilation of millions of bees in Dorchester County, as a result of the zika hysteria, Charleston County Mosquito Control is planning to conduct aerial spraying from Sept 7 – Sept 12 “on standing water.”

Philadelphia, PA — A 19-year-old man is in critical condition suffering gunshot wounds inflicted on him by his father — a Philadelphia cop. In spite of the officer admitting that he fired the weapon, no charges have been filed against him — for obvious reasons.

Monday afternoon, at approximately 6:30 pm, police responded to multiple calls about shots fired at a northeast Philadelphia residence; home of the unnamed police officer. Police say the officer got into an argument with his son, which then escalated into a physical altercation. During the altercation, the officer brandished a gun and fired, striking his son in the torso.   Continue reading “Cop Gets Into Fight With His Own Son, Shoots Him TWICE — Dept Says it Was ‘Accidental’”

To famed and celebrated American author Mark Twain, there are three types of lies: lies, damned lies, and statistics. After all, facts are facts, and that’s all we need to rely on. Everything else is panis et circenses.

The notion that public policing has failed us is a fact — not a statistic. But looking at the numbers may help us attain a better understanding of where they have failed and what led these institutions to pursue policies that not only incentivize crime but also create it out of thin air — so much so that police officers are at the top of the list of threats the common American faces today.   Continue reading “One Third of All Americans Killed by Strangers Are Killed by Police: The Real Story”
