The best predictor of future behavior are past events. History is a great teacher and the upcoming Operation American Spring, to be held on May 16, 2014, stands as an example of why we need to pay attention to our history.

I have received quite a few requests from people who want me to endorse Operation American Spring by expressing the belief that all we need to do is to stand up to tyranny, expose the tyranny and tyranny will run for cover. When American protesters show up in DC on May 16, 2014, the government will indeed run. They will run to retrieve their guns. This event, if carried out in the proposed fashion, will end very badly for when the people rise up and aggressively oppose governmental tyranny, the government will strike back. And this group will be ill prepared to handle the backlash.   Continue reading “Operation American Spring Is Doomed to Fail”

MIDLAND, Texas (AP) — Two police officers in an oil-rich West Texas city spent weeks competing to see who could take the most cardboard signs away from homeless people, even though panhandling doesn’t violate any city law.

Nearly two months after the Midland Police Department learned of the game, the two officers were suspended for three days without pay, according to findings of the internal affairs investigation obtained by The Associated Press through a public records request.   Continue reading “Texas officers suspended for homeless sign contest”

Astronomers have announced that 715 new planets have been discovered outside the Earth’s solar system, including four planets that are more than double the size of our own. This discovery boosts the number of known planets in our galaxy to over 1,700.

The newly discovered planets were all found in multi-planet systems and most are relatively small. Scientists found planets – all of which orbit 305 stars, making up what are known as planetary systems – when they were analyzing the observational data obtained by NASA’s Kepler space telescope.   Continue reading “NASA discovers 715 new planets, including four that could host life”

A federal appeals court judge excoriated states that have resorted to secretive and unproven methods for lethal injections, calling the source of the drug Missouri used Wednesday for an execution as “nothing more than a high school chemistry class.”

Judge Kermit Bye, of the US Court of Appeals for the Eighth Circuit, ripped death penalty states for their increasingly closed approaches in carrying out capital punishments with the aid of anonymous compounding pharmacies that supply drugs.   Continue reading “Federal judge rips death penalty states for secretive execution methods”

We no longer have to ask foreign refugees what it is like living inside a police state. All we have to do is to read the daily accounts of innocent Americans being abused and murdered through the excessive use of force being used by local police who have been federalized by the Department of Homeland Security.

What used to be the beacon of hope, has rapidly become the spotlight of tyranny. I am speaking of America, both then and now.   Continue reading “What is it like living in a police state?”

Media Control

Schooling plays a big role in programming the population, but the most potent and prevalent educational tools are the mass media. These are devised to reach a large audience via the broadcasting of information through natural means (spoken or written language, posters) or technological ones (radio, television, cinema, the Internet). With time, the elite has come to control all the important mass media outlets and are now able to dictate their contents.   Continue reading “Brain Washing, Social Control and Programming – Why You Should Kill Your Television”

It was America’s most notorious prison.

Perched on a rocky outcrop in the middle of San Francisco Bay, from the 1930s to the 1960s the Alcatraz Federal Penitentiary was reserved for the “worst of the worst”.

A who’s who of the criminal underworld were incarcerated there: George “Machine Gun” Kelly, Mickey Cohen and Al Capone all spent time locked up in the tiny cells.   Continue reading “Hidden history found beneath Alcatraz”

People remember Thomas Jefferson for the Declaration of Independence, which he wrote in 1776. A few will remember that he served as president from 1801 to 1809, but aside from that, they know almost nothing of his life and work. In actual fact, he lived till 1826, when he died on July 4, fifty years to the day after the ratification of his Declaration.

During those fifty years, Jefferson’s intellectual life bloomed. He was an inventor, a horticulturalist, and especially a philosopher. In fact, he was a brave and excellent philosopher.   Continue reading “Jefferson’s Final Warnings”

As far-fetched as it may seem to some, many sober-minded news outlets in Israel in the past week have been reporting the existence of a secret deal now being negotiated ahead of the Pope’s visit to Israel in May. If true, it would be the single biggest advancement of bible prophecy since May 14, 1948. Interesting side note, the Pope’s visit in May will coincide with the 66th anniversary of Israel becoming a nation again. Hmm, now that’s interesting…   Continue reading “Israeli News Outlets Reporting Secret Deal To Give Temple Mount To Vatican”

Google must remove from YouTube a polarizing anti-Muslim film that incited international demonstrations, as leaving it online would infringe on the rights of an actress who was coerced into starring in the movie, a split federal court ruled Wednesday.

Actress Cindy Lee Garcia argued that she had not signed a release regarding her appearance in “Innocence of Muslims.” Garcia filed suit, claiming that she therefore owned a copyright in her performance and that when she sent a take down notice to YouTube (which is owned by Google) the site was legally compelled to remove the video.   Continue reading “YouTube given 24 hours to remove ‘Innocence of Muslims’ film”
