CHICAGO (AP) – A father, mother and daughter from a posh Chicago suburb stole $7 million in merchandise during a decadelong shoplifting spree – traveling to stores nationwide and targeting dolls, toys, cosmetics and other valuables – according to a federal complaint released Wednesday.

The three were arrested earlier this week at their $1.3 million Northbrook home after returning from a three-day trip through Oklahoma, Texas and Louisiana, where authorities say they shoplifted from stores. Working in tandem, the family traveled from their Chicago-area residence to hit businesses in multiple states, including Maryland, Tennessee and Florida, according to the 20-page complaint.   Continue reading “Mom, dad, daughter accused in $7M shoplift spree”

Should police be able to kill a man for shooting at a police robot?

Sherry Booth thought she had a good, if nosy neighbor, in the man who lived in the other side of her Grays Hill Court duplex. Then her daughter called her a little after 8:30 p.m. Tuesday.

“She was scared to death,” Booth said. “The police (sic) was banging on the door. Told her to hurry up and get out because he had a gun.”   Continue reading “Did Kentucky State Police Kill A Man For Shooting A Robot?”

WASHINGTON (AP) – President Barack Obama’s choice to lead the Justice Department’s Civil Rights Division was blocked by bipartisan opposition Wednesday in an emotional postscript to the long-ago murder of a Philadelphia policeman and the legal help his killer received.

The vote against advancing Debo Adegbile toward confirmation was 47-52, shy of the majority needed under new procedures Democrats put in place late last year to overcome Republican stalling tactics.   Continue reading “Senate blocks Obama’s pick of Debo Adegbile for civil rights post”

Freedom Outpost – by David Zuniga

In our Constitution, We The People empower Congress to make laws within its federal aegis.  But most Americans are oblivious to the bedrock fact in American civics:

We The People created our supreme law and through it, we created government.  All of government is under the Constitution, and We The People are sovereigns over it.  We The People created, defined, and severely limited our servant congresses, presidents, and supreme courts.    Continue reading “Can the Cartels Be Stopped? – The American People are the Sovereigns of the Constitution”

TRIPOLI, Libya, March 3, (AP): Libya’s parliament moved into a five-star Tripoli hotel Monday, a day after rioters armed with knives and guns stormed the legislature building, torching furniture, killing a guard and wounding six lawmakers in the latest episode of turmoil in the country. Tensions have been mounting between the country’s biggest political blocs, each backed by militias, adding to the potential explosiveness of political disputes. Protesters demanded that parliament be disbanded immediately after its mandate ran out in January. In Sunday’s violence, dozens of protesters swept into the parliament chamber while it was in session, shooting guns, throwing bottles at lawmakers and setting fire to furniture. They took the seat of the parliament’s president — the head of a main Islamist bloc — tied it to a lamppost outside and set it on fire.   Continue reading “Libya Relocates Parliament After Rioters Storm Building”

When a historic earthquake created a massive tsunami that destroyed part of the Fukushima Daiichi power station in northern Japan in March 2011, causing meltdowns at three of the plant’s six nuclear reactors, a radiological disaster ensued.

As part of the effort to control damage and lend assistance, President Barack Obama ordered the U.S. Navy to respond to what would become the worst nuclear accident since the Chernobyl disaster in the former Soviet Union in the mid-1980s.   Continue reading “More than 100 Navy members struggle for justice as radiation slowly kills them”

There is something seriously wrong in the fertile Yakima Valley region of Washington. A surging number of babies are being born with major birth defects, and the reasons why are eluding state health officials.

As reported by CNN, a nurse in the area, Sara Barron, was the first to report on a particularly horrifying condition: anencephaly — a condition in which babies are born without much of their brain and skull.   Continue reading “Surge in babies born without brains in Washington State”
