Applications for gun purchases in Maryland are soaring ahead of the start of a tough new firearms law that sets new magazine capacity limits and bans the sale of certain types of assault weapons.

The Washington Times reported that state police received 85,141 gun-purchase applications this year through Aug. 31. That’s compared with 70,099 applications in all of 2012 and 46,339 applications in 2011. Maryland State Police have increased staffing to cope.   Continue reading “Maryland gun applications soar as stricter control law looms”

A number of Sen. John McCain’s constituents are not happy with the Arizona Republican’s support of President Barack Obama’s plan to take military action against Syria. Voters made that much perfectly clear when they confronted him at a town hall in Phoenix on Thursday.

“We didn’t send you to make war for us. We sent you to stop the war,” one man said to applause, CNN reports.   Continue reading “Voters Explode on John McCain at Phoenix Town Hall: ‘We Didn’t Send You to Make War for Us’”

The US military has killed, maimed and made homeless well over 20,000,000 people since the Vietnam War.

Very few countries have violated as many humanitarian laws and codes of war on such a large scale, and for such an extended period. The vast political leverage of the United States, the rising indifference of media coverage, and the alleged need of secrecy for matters of national security have largely enabled one of the bloodiest 50 years in human history.   Continue reading “Infographic: War Crimes in America”

The August Forecast and Review, 06/05/13

The posi­tion of National Secu­rity Adviser acts like a gate keeper to the Pres­i­dent. This fact has never been lost on the Tri­lat­eral Com­mis­sion, where Zbig­niew Brzezinski was National Secu­rity Adviser to Pres­i­dent Jimmy Carter in 1976. Brzezinski chore­o­graphed Carter‘s every move, even brag­ging about it years later.

When it comes to national secu­rity issues (over­seas and domestic), nothing reaches the President’s eyes or ears without being fil­tered and screened by his Adviser. You can imagine pos­si­bility for manip­u­la­tion if the NSA has a secret agenda to use the Pres­i­dent in order to pro­mote goals favor­able to the mem­ber­ship of a pri­vate organization.   Continue reading “Trilateral Commission Continues to Dominate Obama”

Are American Jews raring to get this war started with Syria? Well a newly-published article at a well-known Jewish media outlet would suggest this indeed is the case. But one small problem. People remember that Israel supporters were among the biggest backers of the war in Iraq, and they’re kind of starting to put 2 and 2 together. So what to do? Well…go ahead and openly advocate for the Syrian war, but, uh…ahem…just don’t say anything about Israel while you’re doing it! The following comes from the JTA:   Continue reading “US Jews Back War on Syria but ‘Downplay’ Israel Angle”

Barack Obama appointed eleven members of the Trilateral Commission to top-level and key positions in his administration within his first ten days in office. This represents a very narrow source of international leadership inside the Obama administration, with a core agenda that is not necessarily in support of working people in the United States.

Obama was groomed for the presidency by key members of the Trilateral Commission. Most notably, Zbigniew Brzezinski, co-founder of the Trilateral Commission with David Rockefeller in 1973, has been Obama’s principal foreign policy adviser.   Continue reading “Obama: Trilateral Commission Endgame”

Internet privacy safeguards known as encryption technologies promised by email, online banking, and other such online databases have been virtually ‘defeated’ by the U.S. National Security Agency, according to new documents obtained by the Guardian, New York Times, and ProPublica.

According to the Guardian—which has reported extensively on the NSA’s dragnet surveillance practices revealed by NSA whistleblower Edward Snowden—the NSA and its British counterparts the GCHQ have used “covert measures” to control and manipulate international encryption standards to the benefit of the NSA, largely through building “industry relationships” with many technology companies and internet service providers.   Continue reading “New NSA Revelations: Internet Privacy Encryption Virtually ‘Defeated’”

Imagine one ring, rather, one bracelet to rule them all, allowing you to leave your keys and wallet at home and banish lengthy, character-filled passwords from your mind.

That’s what the Nymi bracelet would let users do. But what if someone took your bracelet, would your valuables be vulnerable?

Not likely because the keycode Nymi uses to unlock your car, log on to your computer and pay for your groceries is your own unique heartbeat.    Continue reading “This Bracelet Lets You Forget Your Keys, Wallet, Passwords… Uses Your Heartbeat Instead”

DERRY, N.H. — Gun Rights Across America, a gun owners organization, has called for a nationwide demonstration by every gun owner in the country on Oct. 19 to highlight what it calls the right of citizens to own arms under the Second Amendment to the Constitution.

“We want you to strap on a holstered handgun to your hip, and give one hour of your day to make our presence as law-abiding gun owners known,” the group said.   Continue reading “Gun group organizing nationwide rally”

Investigators believe a hunter sparked the monster wildfire which spread into America’s world-renowned Yosemite National Park and became California’s fourth biggest blaze ever, officials said Thursday.

They dismissed earlier reports that the so-called Rim Fire, which is now 80 percent contained, was caused by activity on an illegal marijuana farm near the US landmark park.   Continue reading “Hunter sparked massive Yosemite fire: investigators”
