By Phillip Smith / Independent Media Institute — A 78-year-old Niagara Falls man using a wheelchair was thrown out on the street last week for using medical marijuana in the federally subsidized housing unit he called home. Under harsh federal regulations, operators of such facilities are free to evict tenants who use medical marijuana—even if it legal in the state where they reside, as it is in New York.

According to the Associated Press, it went down like this: The man evicted, John Flickner, had lived for two years at federally subsidized Niagara Towers and obtained marijuana from Canada to use for back pain. In June, inspectors found marijuana in his apartment and called police. They declined to arrest him but instead advised him to get a doctor’s recommendation. He did so.   Continue reading “78-Year-Old Man in Wheelchair Evicted to Freezing Streets for Treating Pain With Legal Medical Pot”

Conventional chemical medicine purveyors are pushing hard for gun control in America, and it’s not a push for safety, despite what they claim. It’s official: “Gunquacks” are now calling for the ban of all guns in America for our own “safety,” while prescribing the very drugs that are linked to nearly every mass shooting over the past twenty years. It’s the ultimate hypocrisy, but emotions run high after every shooting, thanks to the mass media frenzy that’s backed by gun-grabbing Democrats who want a totalitarian, communist-style, nanny police-state-America as soon as possible.   Continue reading “Same doctors that push SSRI drugs linked to nearly all mass shootings claim all guns should be banned because they cause “violence””

After reading Gallier’s comments from the previous post, I became intrigued with this latest “terror” incident. It’s so well packaged. Marketable. Terror. Christmas. What’s with the repeated occurrence of Christmas attacks? Who hates Christ-mas that much?
Certainly not the retailers..    Continue reading “France: Along Comes A Suspiciously, Conveniently Timed Christmas “Terror” Shooting…”

South Tahoe Now

SOUTH LAKE TAHOE, Calif. – It was a normal day of skiing in South Lake Tahoe on Friday, December 7, 2018 for a couple from Oakland, California. They had parked their car on the top floor of the five-story parking garage at Heavenly Village, left their two dogs Titan and Comet inside and hit the slopes for three hours.

Upon return to their car they let the dogs out and played with them for a while, then stopped to remove their ski gear. Other people in the garage were playing with the dogs as well when, for unknown reasons, Comet jumped off the garage and fell five stories below. The couple grabbed Titan and ran to the edge of the garage and looked down to see Comet. Titan jumped out of their hands and also jumped.   Continue reading “South Lake Tahoe police jump in to assist two dogs who jumped from 5th floor of parking garage”

PG&E has acknowledged to regulators that it found bullet holes, a broken transmission-tower hook and other flaws with equipment at sites where the catastrophic Camp Fire is believed to have started last month.

In its most detailed accounting yet of the problems that might have led to the Nov. 8 wildfire that consumed most of Paradise, the beleaguered utility told state officials that its inspectors have found a “broken C-hook” on a high-voltage tower near the community of Pulga, northeast of Paradise. Lawyers for Camp Fire survivors suing PG&E have suggested the broken hook might have allowed a live “jumper” cable to make contact with the tower itself, showering the dry ground below with sparks.  Continue reading “Camp Fire: PG&E finds bullet holes, broken equipment at sites where blaze likely started”

No longer content to tinker with the genetic design of crops and humans, scientists – at the behest of the U.S. Military – are now turning their attention to the world’s oceans. As reported by Defense One, the Pentagon is looking at various ways in which to genetically engineer marine microorganisms into living surveillance equipment capable of detecting enemy submarines, divers and other suspicious underwater traffic.

The Military is also looking at using genetic engineering to create living camouflage in which creatures react to their surroundings to avoid detection, along with a host of other potentially nefarious applications.   Continue reading “U.S. Navy to release genetically engineered organisms into the ocean, unleashing mass genetic pollution with devastating consequences”
