New York Times – by SAMIR NAJI al HASAN MOQBEL
ONE man here weighs just 77 pounds. Another, 98. Last thing I knew, I weighed 132, but that was a month ago.
I’ve been on a hunger strike since Feb. 10 and have lost well over 30 pounds. I will not eat until they restore my dignity.
I’ve been detained at Guantánamo for 11 years and three months. I have never been charged with any crime. I have never received a trial. Continue reading “Gitmo Is Killing Me”
Staying out of the raging national debate over guns, the Supreme Court on Monday declined to weigh in on whether gun owners have a constitutional right to carry handguns outside the home.
The court decided not to hear a challenge to a New York state law that requires those who want to carry a concealed handgun to show they have a special reason before they can get a license. Continue reading “Supreme Court declines to hear gun rights case”
GeoEngineering Watch – by Russell L. Blaylock, M.D.
The internet is littered with stories of “chemtrails” and geoengineering to combat “global warming”; and, until recently, I took these stories with a grain of salt. One of the main reasons for my skepticism was that I rarely saw what they were describing in the skies. But over the past several years I have noticed a great number of these trails and I have to admit they are not like the contrails I grew up seeing in the skies. They are extensive, quite broad, are laid in a definite pattern, and slowly evolve into artificial clouds. Of particular concern is that there are now so many – dozens every day are littering the skies.

An unusual surge of stranded dying and dead sea lions (seals) have littered Southern California beaches from Santa Barbara to San Diego since earlier this year. Most of the area newspapers and media outlets have been alarmingly reporting this unusual phenomenon.
It’s unusual because this is the season when sea lion pups flourish. Instead they’re struggling ashore in starved, emaciated conditions, if they’ve managed to stay alive. Scientists say almost half the sea lions born this past winter have died. Continue reading “Dead sea lions washing on shore in California appear to have died from radiation poisoning”
Hmmm…A fan shoots himself in the head during a race sponsored by the NRA. Is it just me, or is there something Very “Fishy” about this?
FORT WORTH, Texas — A medical examiner says a man who died in the infield during Saturday’s NASCAR race at Texas Motor Speedway shot himself in the head. Continue reading “Death of NASCAR spectator at Texas track ruled suicide”

A Florida police officer fired over his use of shooting targets with an image resembling slain teenager Trayvon Martin is defending himself on YouTube, saying the target was intended as a “no shoot” training aid for an instructional session.
Former Port Canaveral police officer Ron King said in a video on YouTube this weekend that the targets, which appear to depict Martin the night he was killed, were meant to prevent such tragedies in the future. Continue reading “Florida police officer fired over targets with likeness to Trayvon Martin”
The Captain’s Journal – by Herschel Smith
I asked my former Marine son Daniel if the Marine Corps taught him to shoot uphill. He has in fact shot at ranges with elevations before, but mostly there was little formal instruction, even for designated marksmen like he was (other than things like Kentucky Windage type adjustments). I suppose that Scout Snipers go through some sort of training on shooting up or down elevations, but most Marines do not. I have also talked with our reader Jean (who commanded troops in N2K), and there was no particular training for Soldiers to teach them how to target Taliban up a hill.

President Barack Obama claims his proposed 94-cent-a-pack cigarette tax will significantly reduce consumption, just like it did when he passed his 62-cent-a-pack tax in 2009. But that “significant reduction” is all smoke and mirrors, being used to distract you from the real reasons for this new tax increase: It gives Congress approximately $78 billion worth of breathing room in their budget and further enslaves middle- and low-income Americans who are already suffering under the weight of the new higher payroll taxes.

The head of a national gun rights group is supporting the Manchin-Toomey background check bill, an email sent today to a group of Second Amendment activists, scholars and journalists revealed. Alan Gottlieb, Chairman of the Citizens Committee for the Right to Keep and Bear Arms and Founder of the Second Amendment Foundation also staked an authorship claim in the email, which he confirmed to Gun Rights Examiner is a for-the-record statement that can be shared and published.

This isn’t a leak. It isn’t a timid flow. It’s a flood.
I’m talking about about the criticism of Monsanto’s so-called science of genetically-engineered food.
For the past 20 years, independent researchers have been attacking Monsanto science in various ways, and finally the NY Times has joined the crowd. Continue reading “Even the NY Times is now rejecting Monsanto GMO science”
The Common Sense Show – by Dave Hodges
Where is PETA? Where is the Sierra Club? Where is the EPA? There is a new endangered species on the planet and heads of state, like President Obama, are joining in the persecution of this group.
The most persecuted species on the planet are Christians. Obama is the lion-master and the FEMA camps are the future cages of Christians. Continue reading “Obama Puts Christians in the Crosshairs”
Excerpted from WHEC: There are growing concerns from some parents with children in elementary and middle school. They’re asking has the state gone too far when it comes to standardized testing.
Next week, students in third to eighth grade will have to take the statewide exam called Common Core Tests. It’s designed to get students ready for college or a career after high school.

Excerpted from The Los Angeles Times: One of the senators behind the compromise proposal to expand background checks on gun purchases will mount a Senate floor sales pitch Monday, part of a lobbying effort to ensure passage for the key piece of a larger guns bill when it comes to a vote this week.
When the Senate convenes Monday afternoon, Sen. Joe Manchin III (D-W. Va.) plans to take to the floor to go through his proposal piece-by-piece to dispel what he considers misrepresentations from critics of tighter gun laws. He’ll then challenge colleagues who have any questions to come to join him in the chamber for an open debate, and stay there for as long as it takes to satisfy concerns.

According to this breaking story out of Connecticut, the newly passed Connecticut gun law will soon be struck down due to a ‘technicality’ that occurred due to the rush too pass this bill. According to attorney Peter Sachs, the governor of Connecticut just signed “a blank piece of paper.”
A Branford attorney has uncovered a legal and legislative technicality that he says has rendered the state’s new gun law null and void. In an exclusive interview set to air Sunday on “Face the State with Dennis House” on WFSB-TV, Peter Sachs says state lawmakers made a key mistake in their rush to get a bill passed, that he claims will leave them no legal choice but to begin the whole process over again.

The Economic Collapse – by Michael
Did you know that the greatest period of economic growth in American history was during a time when there was absolutely no federal income tax? Between the end of the Civil War and 1913, there was an explosion of economic activity in the United States unlike anything ever seen before or since.
Unfortunately, a federal income tax was instituted in 1913, and this year it turned 100 years old. But there was no fanfare, was there? There was no celebration because the federal income tax is universally hated. Sadly, most Americans just assume that there is no other option to an income tax. Most Americans just assume that it has always been with us and that it will always be with us. Continue reading “100 Years Old And Still Killing Us: America Was Much Better Off Before The Income Tax”

Walking up to a department store’s fabric counter, the pretty girl said, “I would like to buy this material for a new dress. How much does it cost?” “Only one kiss per yard,” replied the male clerk with a smirk. “That’s fine,” said the girl. “I’ll take ten yards.” With expectation and anticipation written all over his face, the clerk quickly measured out the cloth, wrapped it up, then teasingly held it out. Continue reading “One Kiss Per Yard”
