Fifth Graders Charged With Murder Conspiracy Are 'Danger to Others' (ABC News)Yahoo News – by CHRISTINA NG | ABC News

A Washington prosecutor who is charging two boys aged 10 and 11 with conspiracy to commit murder concedes that it is “very rare” to try someone so young, but said the felony charges were necessary because the boys’ crime was premeditated and experts determined they were “a danger to others.”

The fifth graders from Colville, Wash., were arrested in February and Steven County Superior Courtjudge ruled recently that the boys are competent to stand trial on murder conspiracy charges, witness tampering and juvenile possession of a firearm.   Continue reading “Fifth Graders Charged With Murder Conspiracy Are ‘Danger to Others’”

It is very simple: the resistance will not be organized. There is no way to get people together on anything at this stage and there aren’t many more stages left.

Obama is “constrained” by the Constitution. He considers that wrong, but we know that constraining people like him is the whole purpose of the Constitution. Of course he feels constrained by it, he is supposed to and so is everyone else in a position of immense power. He is constrained by our rights and so has done everything he can to obliterate them.   Continue reading “That Magical Moment”

Leftists in Connecticut and Maryland have pushed through extreme and unconstitutional gun laws in the past 24 hours. The question now becomes whether or not firearms manufacturing companies in those locations will now leave states which will not allow their employees to own the very guns they build for American citizens.

Colt, Marlin, Mossberg, Stag Arms, and Sturm Ruger are major firearms manufacturers in Connecticut.   Continue reading “Maryland, Connecticut pass sweeping gun control laws. Will major gun companies leave now that their products have been made illegal?”

Barack Obama. President. Tyrant.Bob Owens

During a stop on his permanent campaign last night at a private residence in San Francisco, President Barack Obama claimed that the Sandy Hook shooter used a machine gun:

Now, over the next couple of months, we’ve got a couple of issues:  gun control.  (Applause.)  I just came from Denver, where the issue of gun violence is something that has haunted families for way too long, and it is possible for us to create common-sense gun safety measures that respect the traditions of gun ownership in this country and hunters and sportsmen, but also make sure that we don’t have another 20 children in a classroom gunned down by a semiautomatic weapon — by a fully automatic weapon in that case, sadly.   Continue reading “During a San Fran fundraiser, Serial Liar Obama claims Lanza used “fully automatic weapon.””

The biggest problem that comes with the body armor is their uncomfortable structure. Efforts have been made by many companies to make them comfortable and improve their structure. The improved facility helps in moving easily and reducing the problems during summers.   Continue reading “Body Armor: Just Protective Clothing”

Legislation currently being finessed by Majority Leader Harry Reid and Senate Democrats poses threats to privacy rights as well as a danger of creating unintentional criminals, American Civil Liberties Union “top lobbyist” Chris Calabrese told The Daily Caller’s Vince Coglianese in an exclusive article posted early this morning.

Senior U.S. administration officials held secret talks in North Korea on at least three occasions in 2011 and 2012, The Asahi Shimbun has learned.

Corporate tax breaks, corporate profits mean higher taxes and cuts in social services for everyone else.Examiner – by Gregory Patin

It has been widely reported since at least 2010 that U.S. corporations and the wealthiest Americans have taken advantage of tax loopholes by hiding their assets in offshore subsidiaries (a.k.a. tax havens) in order to avoid paying U.S. income taxes. The amount of money hidden in these tax havens and what the lost revenue means to the American people has not been so widely reported.

According to several sources, including the BBC, the non-partisan Congressional Research Service (CRS) and James Henry, former Chief Economist at McKinsey & Company, the top 1% of wealthiest Americans and corporations have deposited between $21 and $32 trillion in tax havens in order to evade U.S. taxes. The top seven U.S. banks, furthermore, account for over $10 trillion in assets in more than 10,000 overseas subsidiaries.   Continue reading “Closing corporate tax havens: The solution to the sequester (and world poverty)”
