DENVER (Reuters) – Colorado’s governor will sign three gun control bills into law on Wednesday, including one banning ammunition magazines with more than 15 rounds in a state that has experienced two of the deadliest mass shootings in U.S. history.

The measures that Democratic Governor John Hickenlooper will sign also include a bill requiring universal background checks for gun buyers, and another that requires gun buyers to pay for their own background checks, said the governor’s spokesman, Eric Brown.   Continue reading “Colorado governor will sign 3 gun control measures on Wednesday”

In 2002, author Martin Lee wrote an article for Common Dreams: “Truth Serum and Torture.”

It could have been written yesterday, because now a Colorado judge has stated that, if James Holmes pleads not guilty by reason of insanity to the Aurora murders, state psychiatrists can subject him to drugs that will “help him remember his state of mind” at the time of the shootings. The drugging will reveal whether he really was insane that night last summer at the Aurora theater.   Continue reading “The CIA, James Holmes, MKULTRA, and truth-serum torture”

Authorities believe Lanza targeted Sandy Hook Elementary School because a school would provide little resistance, allowing him to rack up victims in a quest for notoriety. NY Daily News – by Mike Lupica

It is three months since the killings in Newtown, since 20 children and six adults were gunned down at Sandy Hook Elementary School less than two weeks before Christmas. And as bad as the story was, and will always be, it is even worse than we originally knew because now we discover that this was slaughter by spreadsheet.

It has been reported previously that law enforcement found research about previous mass murderers at the Newtown, Conn., home the shooter, video gamer Adam Lanza, shared with his mother, the first victim of Dec. 14.   Continue reading “Morbid find suggests murder-obsessed gunman Adam Lanza plotted Newtown, Conn.’s Sandy Hook massacre for years”

Assistant Attorney General Thomas Perez is scheduled to be nominated as Secretary of Labor on Monday.Examiner – by JIM KOURI

In an effort to fill another second-term Cabinet vacancy with someone who is loyal to his agenda, President Barack Obama on Monday will nominate Thomas Perez, the current assistant attorney general for civil rights, to be the next secretary of labor, according to a White House source. But several Justice Department co-workers and citizens groups believe Perez is a fanatic with a radical agenda that was on display during the Justice Department’s inaction against the New Black Panther Party for voter intimidation.   Continue reading “Obama to elevate alleged Black Panther sympathizer to cabinet post: Critics”

Well the 2016 election is upon us.  Strange, seems like only five months ago that we had our last presidential election.  I’m telling you, we have entered the twilight zone wherein the every four year presidential election process has become like the movie, “Groundhog Day”, with a perpetual campaign to foster perpetual hope for perpetual change.

Then there is reality wherein nothing changes except the faces on the commercials as the international corporate mafia continues to suck out the wealth of our nation.  For the past four years and twenty before that, fewer and fewer have a whole lot more while a whole lot more have a whole lot less.   Continue reading “CPAC Neo-Con Con”

When we are involved in a traffic accident, the so called law requires that we fill out an accident report and exchange insurance information and if we fail to comply with this so called law, we face stiff fines and penalties, and even possibly jail time.

On February 26, 2013, Department of Homeland Security Director Janet Napolitano directed ICE to begin releasing foreign criminals from our jails that were on their way to being deported back to their home countries as US law dictates they must be. Napolitano gave the excuse that because of the sequester the finances just weren’t there to carry out the law.   Continue reading “The American National’s Responsibility Under the Law”

The question is continually being presented as to when World War III will begin and when the United States will join in on the bloodletting frenzy.  Technically the war has already begun and the United States is already engaged on three fronts.

Invasion into a sovereign country, contrary to popular propaganda, is an act of war; thusly the US invasion forces in Mali are engaged in war in Africa.    Continue reading “World War III Breaking Out”

GREELEY, Colo. (AP) — A Colorado sheriff says he won’t enforce two aggressive gun-control measures waiting to be signed into law by Gov. John Hickenlooper.

Weld County Sheriff John Cooke told The Greeley Tribune (http://bit.ly/141Ee2z ) that Democratic lawmakers are scrambling after recent mass shootings, and the bills are “feel-good, knee-jerk reactions that are unenforceable.”   Continue reading “Colo. sheriff refuses to enforce gun-control bills”

The sequester deadline came and, lo and behold, the United States did not turn into a pumpkin or suffer an economic collapse. That isn’t surprising to those who know history and economics: Reductions in federal spending (real reductions, that is, not just smaller-than-planned increases such as we debate today) unleashed powerful economic growth in the 1920s and then again in the late 1940s. Both of those periods featured reductions in federal spending that were far more radical than anything even being proposed today. The booms that followed those shrinkages of government illustrate the basic principle, confirmed time after time both here and abroad, that economic growth is far more robust when government gets out of the way than when it intervenes in and interferes with the private sector.   Continue reading “Obama’s Disturbing Spending Priorities”

Panic Grips Europe as Cyprus, EU, and IMF Confiscate SavingsThe New American – by Alex Newman

Panic-stricken bank depositors in Cyprus emptied ATM machines across the nation after the surprise announcement Saturday that, as part of an extremely controversial European Union and International Monetary Fund bailout deal, authorities would seize up to 15 percent of all savings deposited in Cypriot banks. Markets across Europe plunged as fears of contagion or even a large-scale bank run in the region plagued investors, with the single euro currency falling to multi-month lows and gold rising back above $1,600 following news of the $13 billion scheme.    Continue reading “Panic Grips Europe as Cyprus, EU, and IMF Confiscate Savings”

BoomsThe Daily News – by Scott DeSmit

ALABAMA — It was about midnight on a night last week when Randy Smith took his dog outside and for the third time this year, heard the mysterious booms.

“Three times in a row I heard it,” Smith said. “It sounds as loud as a sonic boom. Maybe louder. As soon as it goes off, the dog starts growling and gets startled.”

Smith and his father, Laverne Smith, live at 748 Lewiston Rd. (Route 77) and have been hearing the booms for nearly two years now.   Continue reading “Mysterious ‘booms’ still unexplained”

The American Thinker – by Tara Servatius

Less than two weeks ago, Sen. Rand Paul’s demanded to know whether the president believed he had a right to kill an American citizen on American soil with a drone, finally getting an answer that had to be dragged out Attorney General Eric Holder.  An equally important, but still unasked question is whether the president intends to build a federal, drone-based “public safety” force to police local communities.

Somebody had better ask the president about this quickly, because it appears that his administration intends to use drones to actively usurp what were once local police and sheriff’s department functions.   Continue reading “The Other Drone Question: Is Obama Building A Federal Police Force?”

The FBI has suffered a dramatic setback in its use of hyper-secret gagging orders in the name of national security to obtain the private data of US citizens, after a federal court struck down the practice.

A judge in a California US district court ordered the US government to stop issuing what are called “national security letters”. Susan Illston said the letters, which have mushroomed since 9/11 under the Patriot Act, were unconstitutional as they breached the first amendment rights of the parties being served the orders.   Continue reading “FBI’s demands for private data struck down by federal court”
