Lawyers will ask the U.S. Supreme Court today to absolve a former Roanoke policeman of a federal firearms conviction and hope to highlight what they see as a problem with gun store paperwork requirements.
In 2009, Bruce Abramski Jr. used his law enforcement discount to buy a pistol at a Collinsville gun store and resold the weapon four days later to his uncle, who wanted a gun for protection, had a clean background and was legally entitled to have one.

LOS ANGELES – Minutes before a gunman opened fire in a Los Angeles International Airport terminal last fall, killing a security screener and wounding three other people, the two armed officers assigned to the area left for breaks without informing a dispatcher as required.
The Los Angeles Airport Police Department officers were outside Terminal 3 when authorities say Paul Ciancia opened fire with an assault rifle in an attack targeting Transportation Security Administration officers, two law enforcement officials told The Associated Press. The officials requested anonymity, saying they were briefed on the shooting but were not authorized to speak publicly about the ongoing investigation.

Wall Street’s fat cats will be just fine with Americans rolling fat joints en masse once the other 48 states go the way of Colorado and Washington on the marijuana legalization issue. Sure enough, as Capital New York’s Joanna Molloy put it, “Marijuana is going corporate.”
Investors are becoming emboldened and putting their money into an expected $3 billion cannabis market this year—double that of 2013—from sales in medical dispensaries in 20 states and D.C., and in retail boutiques in Colorado and Washington, where recreational use is now legal.

“As has been well documented, I smoked pot as a kid…” — Barack Obama
“You smoke that shit, everything kind of gets weird, you know what I mean?” — Bunny in Platoon
Despite having spent a good many years in the Sixties (ten, to be exact, although I only remember about half of ‘em), I was never much of a pot head. Any substance which led me to believe that Gilligan’s Island was a masterpiece of the performing arts was not to be trusted. Grass gave most people the giggles; for a tiny minority of us, it provided the certainty we were on the verge of a massive heart attack. Body paranoia was the doper’s term for such unease. It was an affliction which led chronic sufferers back to the conviviality of the closest taproom where they could inebriate themselves legally until they keeled over into a puddle of their own effluvia and were dragged home by their designated drivers.

An Indiana police chief’s day ended with a bang when he accidentally shot himself in the leg on Saturday – the second time in his career that he’s turned his own gun on his body.

A new report states that pollution from China is causing smog on the West Coast of the USA.
Now you’ll have to forgive my confusion here but if we take Beijing as the starting point, the distance to The West Coast is 6,266 miles. That’s a long way for pollution to travel on the wind.
It’s farther, for example, than the 5,363 miles the wind has to travel from Fukushima. Continue reading “If Pollution From China Affects The West Coast How Come Pollution From Fukushima Doesn’t?”
The Daily Sheeple- by Chris Carrington
Residents in North Texas have discovered that their water is contaminated with methane gas. The Texas Oil and Gas Regulator has started an investigation after independent tests proved there was a high level of the gas in residential water supplies.
Range Resources, a natural gas company, says there is no evidence that the methane in the water and the methane from their well is the same, and they state that their own tests do not indicate that there’s a problem.
