Yet, underneath, it’s clear to those who can see that this is the furthest thing from reality.   Continue reading “Secular Humanism is Changing the Constitution into Something it was Never Intended to Be”

Today [December 10] is International Human Rights Day. So here in the United States, it’s worth revisiting a debate that nearly every other developed nation has already sorted out: Is it a human right NOT to be legally murdered by your own government?

The United Nations thinks so. In February, UN Secretary-General Ban Ki-moon said, “Capital punishment is inconsistent with the mission of the United Nations to reaffirm faith in fundamental human rights and the dignity and worth of the human person.”   Continue reading “The US executes more people every year than Yemen, Sudan and Afghanistan.”

It appears EAA is moving away from their Turkish manufacturer SAR ARMs
in favor of their Italian line of “Witness” models.

Both are CZ 75 knock offs.  The one at the link has nothing but high remarks

While TPP negotiators had hoped to finish off the negotiations in Singapore over the past few days, it appears that did not happen, though they claim to have made substantial progress and will meet again next month. From the reports of people there, the negotiators made sure that public interest groups were excluded from even the press briefing about the negotiations, which should tell you all you need to know about what the negotiators think of the public. But, in case you weren’t sure, the USTR, Michael Froman, has finally explained why the TPP negotiating positions must be kept secret. Apparently, all of us in the public, are too fucking stupid to understand the important work that he’s doing, and we might “misunderstand” it. Therefore, we peons must be kept in the dark, while important people like himself negotiate on our behalf. According to Jamie Love:   Continue reading “USTR Says TPP Must Be Kept Secret, Because The Public Is Too Stupid To Understand It”

An American man who went missing in Iran more than six years ago had been working for the CIA in what U.S. intelligence officials describe as a rogue operation that led to a major shake-up in the spy agency.

Bob Levinson, an ex-FBI agent, traveled to the Iranian Island of Kish in March 2007 to investigate corruption at a time when he was discussing the renewal of a CIA contract he had held for several years. He also inquired about getting reimbursed for the Iran trip by the agency before he departed, according to former and current U.S. intelligence officials.   Continue reading “Ex-FBI agent who went missing in Iran was on rogue mission for CIA”
