About a year ago, after a lot of pressure from Senator Ron Wyden, the government finally admitted (late on a Friday) that, yes, indeed some of its surveillance efforts had been found unconstitutional for violating the 4th Amendment. But they didn’t explain what, nor did they reveal the FISA court ruling which made that assessment. Since that time, the EFF has been fighting the government to get it to reveal the ruling.   Continue reading “DOJ Argues Secret Ruling Over Secret Unconstitutional Surveillance Must Remain Secret Because It’s Secret”

The Supreme Court ruled unanimously Thursday that human genes cannot be patented, a decision that is likely to shape the future of medical and biotech research.

WASHINGTON — A top State Department official stymied investigators trying to get to the bottom of four killings in Honduras involving DEA agents and local police — yet another revelation from internal memos leaked by a whistleblower claiming a pattern of coverups.

The incident ended in the deaths of two pregnant women and two men last year, after Honduran national police opened fire from a State Department-owned helicopter on a small boat.   Continue reading “State Department stymied probe into shooting of four Hondurans, whistleblower says”

If you ever wondered what results a controlled experiment of Monsanto farming methods would yield, look no further than the unwilling residents of Molokai.  Until 1969, by fact of its geographical isolation, Molokai was home for over 100 years to a leper colony.  With the arrival of Monsanto’s test fields, the beautiful island has become a laboratory and the islanders are being treated as the lab rats.   Continue reading “Crimes Against Humanity: How Monsanto is Turning a Hawaiian Island into a Petri Dish Complete with Human Lab Rats”

Many of us cannot home school our children because both mother and father have to work two or three jobs just to pay the bills. The cost of living to keep the lights on, food to eat and fuel in our vehicles keeps rising no matter how much we pinch pennies. We have no choice but put our kids in the public school system.

It is common knowledge now that the Public School System has become indoctrination centers. They are trying to ram down our throats a Soviet style collectivist agenda. They are trying to get children to turn in their parents if they talk against the government. They ask how many guns are in our homes. They want to know if their family is bad for the environment because they want to take hot bath.   Continue reading “Are Public School Anti Bullying Policies Part of Slave Training?”

WASHINGTON — American and European intelligence analysts now believe that President Bashar al-Assad’s troops have used chemical weapons against rebel forces in the civil war there, an assessment that will put added pressure on a deeply divided Obama administration to develop a response to a provocation that the president himself has declared a “red line.”   Continue reading “Propaganda Alert: Syria Has Used Chemical Arms on Rebels, U.S. and E.U.

A proposed law on the verge of approval by the Belgium parliament would allow children to decide for themselves whether they should be euthanized (“killed”) by medical personnel. Currently, Belgian law limits euthanasia to persons 18 and older, but with the rise of autistic children thanks to biopesticides, GMOs and vaccines, nations are increasingly trying to figure out what to do with all these children who have been permanently damaged by the medical and biotech industries.   Continue reading “Euthanasia for children nears approval by Belgian Parliament; doctors to mass-euthanize children and Alzheimer’s patients”

Here are some things to consider about the use of slings.

I have no experience of using a sling as an actual aid to marksmanship, other than with .22 target shooting in the cadets at school. This post is not about that. I would suggest that it is not an option unless you are set up in a static position, in the role of a sharpshooter.   Continue reading “Tactical Tip – Sling Use (+ comment on muzzle flagging)”

Chinatown CounterfeitHuffington Post – by VERENA DOBNIK

NEW YORK — Bargain hunters from around the world flock to Manhattan’s Chinatown for legally sold bags, jewelry and other accessories bursting onto sidewalks from storefronts along Canal Street.

But hidden around the city are goods labeled “Prada” or “Louis Vuitton” or some other luxury brand – counterfeits sold for a pittance. In some cases, handbags going for $2,000 on Fifth Avenue can be had downtown for, say, $20.   Continue reading “Chinatown’s Counterfeit-Goods Economy Targeted In New York City Council Bill”
