Enforce our Bill of Rights
Gun Watch – by Dean Weingarten
Vox recently published an article by German Lopez that makes a logical error. The article conflates an increase in “gun deaths” with a decrease in public safety. The jump is made from an article published last year, in 2018, where the Rand Corporation published a chart based on a number of different and dubious studies on “gun deaths”. From the previous article: Continue reading “The Logical Fraud Conflating “Gun Deaths” with Public Safety”

I receive the following email from Paul today in response to my inquiry as to his condition:
Hello Henry.
Yes as well as can be expected. Have had a number of health issues. Barb as well. Have been trying to get to the bottom of them. When I am coherent enough have been trying to find out how to handle them: Migraines, nausea, lightheaded, balance issues, active tremor, to name a few.

They believe human actions are changing the environment. They believe we need to take urgent action to save the planet for future generations. So why do so many chemtrail conspiracy theorists think climate change is a big hoax?
For weeks, attacks on teenage climate activist Greta Thunberg have been the most popular posts on the most popular Facebook page for the chemtrail conspiracy theory. At nearly 183,000 members, the page is a stronghold for people who believe the government or other agencies are spraying chemicals out of planes for nefarious purposes (perhaps mind control, perhaps weather control, depending on which believer you ask). And as Thunberg and American school children rally for climate action, they’re becoming a favorite target of the conspiracy crowd.

The Religious Right was born during the ineptitude of the Jimmy Carter presidency and came to maturity during the Bill Clinton years. It got old and feeble during the G.W. Bush years. And now under the Trump presidency, it is nothing but a rotting corpse. The Religious Right was created to be a cure, but it has become a blight. Continue reading “The Religious Right Is A Blight”

Chicago, IL — Because of their gross negligence and incompetence, the city of Chicago is facing a slew of lawsuits for raiding the homes of innocent people — allegedly by mistake. TFTP has reported on several of these lawsuits in which cops raided a four-year-old’s birthday party and held other children at gunpoint. One of these families has even been raided — mistakenly — three times. One family’s recent mistaken raid, however, is exposing a blue wall of silence and showing how far the Chicago police department is willing to go to cover up their crimes.

SACRAMENTO, Calif. (Oct. 9, 2019) – Yesterday, California Gov. Gavin Newsom signed a bill into law that bans police from using facial recognition and biometric scanners with body-worn cameras for the next three years. The law will not only help protect privacy in California, but it would also hinder one aspect of the federal surveillance state. Continue reading “Signed as Law: California Bans Facial Recognition on Police Body Cameras”
The Church of England is demanding that the United Kingdom use force and violence to ban pointy knives. A religious organization is now insisting that crime be reduced by further enslaving the population. Continue reading “Church Of England: The UK Must Ban “Pointy Knives””
I like this idea! I know as someone with severe social anxiety a crowded and loud place can cause extreme discomfort and panic attacks. From The Gainsville Sun:
The zoo — with its screeching, howling and caterwauling inhabitants — can be a noisy nightmare for a child with autism or other sensory issues. Continue reading “Santa Fe College Teaching Zoo Wants to Make the Zoo Accommodating for Those With Sensory Issues”
