There’s stunning security camera footage of a barbershop robbery in South Carolina that was thwarted by not one, but two concealed carriers who took on a pair of armed robbers and decisively won.
A 35-year-old New Jersey man has been identified as the armed robbery suspect who was shot and killed in a shootout during a botched robbery attempt at a Fort Jackson Boulevard barbershop.

In October 2008, as the repercussions of the financial crisis were starting to ripple through the global economy, I noticed a press release from Swedish truckmaker Volvo saying that its European order book had fallen by more than 99 percent between the third quarters of 2007 and 2008 — to just 155 from 41,970. That prompted me to study various other real-world activity measures ranging from shipping to air freight, and to conclude that “the news is all bad and getting worse, fast.” The same exercise today, I’m afraid to say, leads me to a similar conclusion about the growth outlook.

Today, the Virginia House of Delegates passed a bill to authorize the farming, and production of industrial hemp in the state for commercial purposes, setting the foundation to nullify in practice the unconstitutional federal prohibition on the same. The vote was 98-0.
Introduced by Del. Brenda Pogge (R-Norge), House Bill 699 (HB699) would amend current state law on hemp by removing a provision that authorized the licensing of hemp farming only upon approval of the federal government.

Sebring, OH — Residents in Sebring, Ohio, can commiserate with those in Flint, Michigan, considering their water supply has also been contaminated with lead that “exceeds the action level,” according to the state’s EPA. Like Flint, the case of Sebring — involving some 8,100 water customers in Sebring, Beloit, Maple Ridge, and parts of Smith Township — already has the appearance of criminal negligence and a possible cover-up.

A hugely important paper has just been published in the Epidemiology: Open Access science journal. It is authored by Kevin Mugur Galalae, Founder and Director of the Center of Global Consciousness in Ontario.
In it, Galalae correctly points out that the entire medical-agricultural complex as it exists today is intentionally engineered to deliberately reduce human population. Overpopulation of the planet is a very real and very serious problem, he believes, but the current strategy of world governments to reduce human population via covert infertility, immune suppression and “death by medicine” is unethical and insufficient to achieve the desired level of depopulation.

This should not be in the “land of the free.” It is a sad graphic. And remember, much of your tax money is siphoned off by the cronies in industries which are connected and by those in government itself. You are basically an annuity.

A police officer, who accidentally shot an unarmed motorcyclist in Eden Prairie, Minnesota, on June 20, 2015, blamed his actions on “high stress” and “muscle memory.” Video (below) of the incident, filmed by the officer’s dash cam, was recently released.
Sergeant Lonnie Soppeland reportedly pursued Matthew Hovland-Knase in a chase that sometimes exceeded 110 m.p.h. After Hovland-Knase pulled over on the side of the road, Soppeland got out of his police car, pulled his gun and fired, notes Fox 9 News.

An “investigative summary” posted this month by the Justice Department’s inspector general criticizes the Drug Enforcement Administration (DEA) for hiring a federal airport security screener to help find seizable cash in passengers’ luggage. Under the arrangement, the DEA designated the screener a “confidential source” and promised him a cut of any money he found while rummaging through people’s bags.

Many have speculated whether or not the pharmaceutical industry has something to do with the continued prohibition on marijuana. It’s easy to see where these suspicions are coming from, considering the fact that marijuana has been proven as an effective treatment for so many maladies that “Big Pharma” treats with synthetic medicines.

WASHINGTON (Reuters) – U.S. security officials intercepted a record 2,653 firearms – 83 percent of them loaded – from carry-on bags at airport security checkpoints in 2015, a 20 percent increase from the previous year, a federal agency said on Thursday.
The 2,212 firearms seized in 2014 was itself a record, according to theTransportation Security Administration. The firearms seized last year were intercepted at 236 airports, 12 more than in 2014, TSA said. Continue reading “20% Increase in Confiscations of Guns—Most Loaded—at U.S. Airports in 2015”

The Economic Collapse – by Michael Snyder
It’s official – global stocks have entered a bear market. On Wednesday, we learned that the MSCI All-Country World Index has fallen a total of more than 20 percent from the peak of the market. So that means that roughly one-fifth of all the stock market wealth in the entire world has already been wiped out. How much more is it going to take before everyone will finally admit that we have a major financial crisis on our hands? 30 percent? 40 percent? This new round of chaos began last night in Asia. Japanese stocks were down more than 600 points and Hong Kong was down more than 700 points. The nightmare continued to roll on when Europe opened, and European stocks ended up down about 3.2 percent when the markets over there finally closed. In the U.S., it looked like it was going to be a truly historic day for a while there. At one point the Dow had fallen 566 points, but a curious rebound resulted in a loss of only 249 points for the day.

With the biggest number of refugees per capita in Europe, the Swedish government’s goal to have the lowest unemployment level in the EU in 2020 is unfeasible, says a government analyst.
“It’s not realistic. It will be very hard to reach that target,” Mats Wadman, head of analysis at the Swedish Public Employment Service told Bloomberg. Continue reading “Immigration surge pushes up Swedish unemployment”
