Another reason why I’m falling in love with Texas! A jury decided not to pursue capitol murder charges against 28-year-old Henry Goedrich Magee, who claims he was protecting his home and family from what he thought were would be robbers, instead turned out to be police for a no knock raid. This is a feather in our hats, ladies and gentleman, on being able to defend ourselves against these psychos!   Continue reading “Victory! No Charges Against Man Who Shot And Killed Cop During No Knock Raid”

A Mississippi police dog has been fired from the force after he was found playing instead of aiding in drug busts.

The Beligian Malinois dog known as “Fred” will be sent back to the training facility where the came from after the city of Gulfport paid between $12,000 and $13,000 for him and his training, the Sun Herald reports.

The Gulfport Police Department says Fred was “slacking off,” despite being given a chance to shape up.

The City Council unanimously approved a resolution on Tuesday that considered Fred to be “surplus property.” The Police Department will now sell Fred back to K-9 Unlimited, where they originally got him from.

“We’ll get some of our money back for the dog when we bring him back to the facility,” Chief Leonard Papania said. “I can’t speak specifically about what will happen with Fred. I can tell you nothing terrible will happen to Fred.”

Despite reports of Fred slacking off on the job, Roger Abshire, owner of K-9 Unlimited, told KATC Fred is only leaving Gulfport because he did not work well with his new canine handler.

Fred will soon be moving on to the Harrison County Sheriff’s Office, and the Gulfport Police Department will be purchasing a replacement dog from K9-Unlimited, KATC reports.

Business is business, but Chief Papania knows letting go of Fred won’t be that easy.

“Your K-9 handlers do have a bond with these animals,” he told the Sun Herald. “They spend a lot of time with them. These animals are kept in their homes. You do have that working bond. But they also are aware of the ultimate responsibility we have with these animals.”

HARRISBURG — Imagine buying a house, but having someone else pay the mortgage. It sounds great, right? Well, what if that someone else was you?

It sounds unbelievable. But CBS 21 has learned some of our elected officials may be using a flawed per diem system as an investment vehicle to buy houses – courtesy of the taxpayer.

“I’m disgusted,” said Susan Newcomb. “We’re struggling, barely making it. And somebody is going to do that? It’s just wrong.”   Continue reading “Per Diem Loophole Allows Lawmakers to Abuse System”

Along with campaigns against fracking and climate change, perhaps the largest and most dynamic grassroots movement in North America today is the anti-genetic engineering, Millions Against Monsanto food movement.

Last May and October, as part of a global “March Against Monsanto,” over a million protestors, many for the first time, marched and picketed in hundreds of cities and towns across North America, calling for mandatory labels or bans on GMOs (Genetically Modified Organisms).    Continue reading “Food Fights, Corporate Trade Agreements, and States’ Rights: Democracy or Corporatocracy?”

According to Dr. Leonard Horowitz, 528 Hertz is a frequency that is central to the “musical mathematical matrix of creation.” More than any sound previously discovered, the “LOVE frequency” resonates at the heart of everything. It connects your heart, your spiritual essence, to the spiraling reality of heaven and earth.

The Love frequency is the “Miracle” note of the original Solfeggio musical scale. Independently confirmed by researchers, these core creative frequencies were used by ancient priests and healers in advanced civilizations to manifest miracles and produce blessings.   Continue reading “The Love Frequency 528 Hz”

Friday, the Bureau of Labor Statistics released yet another disappointing jobs report.

Employers added 113,000 jobs in January, well below the 185,000 economists expected. The unemployment rate, which is drawn from a different survey of households, was down slightly to 6.6% from 6.7% in December. The labor force participation rate ticked up to 63% from 62.8%, which was the lowest rate in more than three and a half decades. The employment-population ratio was up to 58.8% from 58.6% in the prior month.   Continue reading “Jobs Report: U.S. Economy Added 113,000 Jobs In January, Unemployment Down To 6.6%”

As Americans in the economic middle struggle to keep up, many retailers and other businesses have decided to focus on the demands of the wealthy.

Since the end of the Great Recession, the nation’s top earners have been doing a significant portion of the consumer spending during the weak economic recovery, which is great news for high-end businesses that cater to this class.   Continue reading “Retailers Adjust to Rich Getting Richer and Middle Class Fading”

A former member of Michael Bloomberg’s gun control groupclaimed this week that the group’s objectives are far more radical than it has let on.

John Tkazyik, the mayor of Poughkeepsie, N.Y., said he quit the former New York City mayor’s group, Mayors Against Illegal Guns, after he realized its objective was outright confiscation of firearms from law-abiding citizens.   Continue reading “Former Bloomberg Ally Says ‘Mayors’ Group’s Goal Is Gun Confiscation”

It is as if we are living in total “idiocracy” – that any human being would even consider any medication advertised on television with all those crazy side effects, like internal bleeding, loss of vision, coma, feelings of suicide and death. It’s literally insulting to intelligence, yet millions of Americans still run to their doctors with health problems and take whatever the doctor prescribes, without question, and then wonder what went wrong. If food commercials had to list the side effects, including the short- and long-term adverse health effects of eating the “garbage” that’s served up like it’s actual food with nutritive value, then maybe people would start waking up and realize that the medicine they take is prescribed to cover up the symptoms of the disorders and diseases that they get from eating “idiotic” junk science food and synthetic, processed, genetically mutated trash.   Continue reading “What if food ads had to list the side effects like prescription drugs on TV?”

Over the past few years, several authors have taken up the mantle writing articles exposing the connection between Saul Alinsky and Barack Hussein Obama. As a community organizer, Obama was schooled in the “Alinsky” method, and as we all know, Saul Alinsky authored a book that might as well be considered the golden rule book of the left, “Rules for Radicals.” The Alinsky method of community organizing, which is a gentler way of saying communist agitating, was based on the idea of creating hate and discontent in order to create a power base in which to push a socialist agenda (Think Occupy Wall Street). Barack is well schooled in this method, as his entire presidency has been referred to by many commentators as one continuous campaign. President Obama has been the master of creating discontent among his base as his entire presidency revolves around accusing white Republicans of being racist, greedy and wanting to push grandma off a cliff. In his recent interview with Fox News’ Bill O’Riley, he even went so far as blaming Fox News for his low popularity ratings. If only they would stop bringing up those scandals everyone would love him, right?   Continue reading “Barack Hussein Obama Only Has Whatever Power You Think He Has”

CHICAGO (AP) — The question of when a planned protest becomes conspiracy to commit terrorism was the focus of closing arguments Thursday in the trial of three men accused of hatching a plan to throw Molotov cocktails at President Barack Obama’s campaign headquarters and other Chicago sites during the 2012 NATO summit.

Prosecutor Tom Biesty argued two weeks of testimony from undercover police officers and wire recordings proved the three out-of-state activists conspired to attack the campaign office in Obama’s hometown, Mayor Rahm Emanuel’s home and police stations.   Continue reading “NATO trial asks question: Who’s a terrorist?”

ATLANTA (AP) — Facing the latest in a string of legal battles with her brothers, the daughter of Martin Luther King Jr. is seeking to portray herself as the true heir to her father’s legacy.

Bernice King has been outspoken this week in her opposition to what she said is a plan by her brothers, Dexter King and Martin Luther King III, to sell their father’s Nobel Peace Prize medal and personal traveling Bible. Bernice has possession of both items, and her brothers asked a judge last week to order her to turn them over.   Continue reading “Martin Luther King’s children battling over estate”

My masters degree did nothing to save me from being unemployed and destitute.

I write to you today because I have nowhere else to turn. I lost my full time job in September 2012. I have only been able to find part-time employment — 16 hours each week at $12 per hour — but I don’t work that every week. For the month of December, my net pay was $365. My husband and I now live in an RV at a campground because of my job loss. Our monthly rent is $455 and that doesn’t include utilities. We were given this 27-ft. 1983 RV when I lost my job.   Continue reading “Mr. President, My America Is Now Life in an RV Park With No Running Water and Not Much Heat”
