Birmingham, AL — Although the governor of Alabama formally apologized to the Indian government last year and promised that justice would be served, Madison police officer Eric Parker, the cop who left an innocent elderly grandfather paralyzed, not only escaped justice — but is now back on the job.In what can only be described as the epitome of everything wrong with police in America today, this brutal monster, who attacked and left severely disabled, an innocent old man out for a walk, will have his badge reinstated, his gun given back, and put out on the streets to strike again.In a statement Tuesday morning, by Major Jim Cooke, the acting Madison police chief, it was ...

I, for one, welcome the unofficial end of summer. I’ll miss the Olympics and fancy tomato salads. But it’s an election year, and Labor Day is usually accompanied by a return to more substantive news cycles — along with a significant increase in the amount of polling. That was certainly true Tuesday morning, which brought a bevy of new data, including about a half-dozen new national polls and a 50-state poll from SurveyMonkey (conducted in conjunction with The Washington Post). People are focusing on the flashier results among these polls: that CNN’s poll shows Donald Trump narrowly ahead among likely voters, for instance, while SurveyMonkey has Hillary Clinton tied with ...

A safe space for Black CSLA students …’ California State University Los Angeles recently rolled out segregated housing for black students. The arrangement comes roughly nine months after the university’s Black Student Union issued a set of demands in response to what its members contend are frequent “racist attacks” on campus, such as “racially insensitive remarks” and “microaggressions” by professors and students. One demand was for a “CSLA housing space delegated for Black students.” “[It] would provide a cheaper alternative housing solution for Black students. This space would also serve as a safe space for Black CSLA ...
WikiLeaks Exposes Hypocrisy Of An Alcohol Industry Fighting Marijuana Legalization

Not that this came as a big surprise, but “Big Alcohol” is fighting the marijuana legalization movement. If marijuana were to become legalized in all 50 states, alcohol manufacturers would see a large loss in revenue. As Jeremy Kossen with Clear Choice reported: It should be no surprise: “Big Booze” hates cannabis. Cannabis, notably safer than alcohol (by every measure), poses a threat to the alcohol industry’s bottom line. So it should come as no surprise that a recent report by Marijuana.com citing leaks from infamous whistle-blower website — WikiLeaks — shows that the alcohol industry is spending big bucks to get members of Congress to promote ...

A man identifying as a sovereign citizen resisted arrest during a traffic stop and attempted to reach for a gun, a news release from Slidell police says. According to the release, officers initiated a traffic stop after observing a green Ford Ranger driven by James Doyle Webb violating several traffic laws on Fremaux Avenue. Webb, 54, 5129 1st Ave. D, Bay St. Louis, Mississippi, ignored the officers’ request to see his driver’s license, registration and insurance, instead asking for the officers’ names and badge numbers, the release says. After providing their names and badge numbers, the release says, the officers again requested to see Webb’s documents, which he ...
Looking through the smokescreen: Hillary Clinton’s foreign policy record deserves scrutiny

ANALYSIS/OPINION: Former U.S. Secretary of State Hillary Clinton, her allies, and others have declared Donald Trump unfit for the presidency because of his lack of national security credentials. American voters should carefully look through that smokescreen to see the global damage resulting from President Barack Obama and Secretary Clinton’s “smart” foreign policies, and how she behaved in office before casting their presidential ballots. On the surface, Mrs. Clinton’s resume appears impressive. She served the nation as first lady for eight years, as twice-elected U.S. senator from New York for eight years, and as the 67th U.S. Secretary of State during President ...

HANGZHOU, China -- President Barack Obama said San Francisco 49ers quarterback Colin Kaepernick is ‘‘exercising his constitutional right’’ to sit out the U.S. national anthem, but the president acknowledged that the silent protest is a ‘‘tough thing’’ for military service members to accept. At a news conference in China on Monday, the president said he did not doubt Kaepernick’s sincerity in his decision not to stand for the anthem ahead of the team’s games to protest the treatment of African Americans by law enforcement authorities in U.S. cities. Obama noted a ‘‘long history’’ of sports figures protesting political or ...

Las Vegas, NV — In America, if you are mentally challenged, you have a 1,600 percent higher chance of being killed by police. Because of this shocking truth, a Las Vegas mother has gone to extraordinary lengths to ensure cops don’t kill her autistic son. She has spray painted her garage door with huge lettering that states, ‘Autistic man lives here cops no excuse.’ Judy McKim made the choice to label her home in such a manner after she says police nearly killed her son a few weeks prior during an interaction. Although Judy’s son, Zachary is 28-years-old, he has the mentality of a toddler. If fact, her son still uses a pacifier and wears diapers. ...
Arizona Republicans fear Trump will turn their solid-red state blue

The idea that the Republican presidential ticket could lose red-state Arizona is gaining steam amid a number of troubling signs for Donald Trump. Sen. Jeff Flake, one of Mr. Trump’s staunchest Republican critics, warned Sunday that the state is “up for grabs” and advised members of his party to distance themselves from the real estate mogul. “It shouldn’t be up for grabs. Mitt Romney won it by, I think, 8 points” in 2012, the Arizona Republican said on CBS’ “Face the Nation.” “But frankly, it is.” Mr. Trump promptly dismissed the senator’s worries in the manner he often does: on Twitter. “The Republican Party needs ...

From FBI fragments, a question: Did Team Clinton destroy evidence under subpoena? By Byron York Washington Examiner 9/3/16 7:14 PM The incomplete records of the Hillary Clinton email investigation released by the FBI raise questions about the conduct not only of Clinton but of her top aides and the staffers working under their direction. Perhaps the most serious is whether the Clinton team destroyed evidence which they were under legal order to save and produce to congressional investigators. Out of a massive investigation, the FBI has released just two documents: a heavily-redacted version of its summary report and a writeup — the so-called 302 — from agents' July 2 ...

Aric Babbitt, 40, and his spouse, Matthew Deyo, 36, were under investigation for allegedly having sexual contact with several boys, court papers show. Police arrived at the couple's home and tried to speak to them after a 16-year-old boy claimed he was involved in a sexual relationship with the pair. However, neither Babbitt nor Deyo agreed to provide a statement, instead borrowing a relative's gun and leaving the city, it is reported. Nine days later, they were discovered dead by a kayaker on a beach thousands of miles away, with ...

Police officers have threatened to boycott the home games of the NFL's San Francisco 49ers if the organisation fails to take action to halt protests by its quarterback Colin Kaepernick. Kaepernick has refused to stand for the national anthem in a protest against the plight of black people in the US. A letter from Santa Clara police says Kaepernick's actions and statements are "false and insulting". It accused the 49ers of failing to take any action to stop them. Kaepernick's protest has stemmed from the racial tensions that increased across the nation this year amid a string of police killings and subsequent revenge attacks. The player stayed seated during The ...

Here is Trump Despite many polls showing him with historically low support among black voters, Trump cast himself as a Republican in the tradition of Abraham Lincoln. “Becoming the nominee of the party of Abraham Lincoln, a lot of people don’t realize that, Abraham Lincoln, the great Abraham Lincoln was a Republican, has been the greatest honor of my life,” Trump said. “It is on his legacy that I hope to build the future of the party but more importantly the future of the country.” Moments after Trump spoke, Hillary Clinton’s campaign, which has sought to tie Trump to racist elements of the “alt-right” and some of his white-nationalist supporters, ...

Grants, NM — As the Free Thought Project pointed out many times before, police departments in America can legally discriminate against hiring individuals if their IQ is too high. Couple this with the fact that thieves aren’t always the sharpest tools in the toolbox, and you get the makings of a scenario like the one that unfolded in New Mexico last week. A Grants cop was caught on his own body cam stealing weed. Grants Police Department Sgt. Roshern C. McKinney, 33, was arrested last week after an investigation found that he’d stolen both money and marijuana from the police department. McKinney has since been charged with marijuana distribution, ...

USATSI What do you think about his swing?I think there are things to like about the swing, and a lot of things to cause concern. There's obvious bat speed, and the loft in the swing along with his ridiculous strength gives him a chance for plus-plus power. The question is, can he tap into ...

On a 70-degree day in July, Julie Koehler was driving her three girls, 8, 5, and 4, to a bouncy house in Evanston, a suburb of Chicago. She needed coffee, so she pulled up in front of a Starbucks, opened the minivan's windows and even its sliding door to let the air in, and left the kids watching a video. She was gone for three minutes. Thus began her ordeal with the Illinois Department of Child and Family Services. Through the window of the Starbucks, Koehler saw a police officer walk over to her car and strike up a conversation with the girls. She assumed he was saying hi. He then disappeared. Thirty seconds later, the officer was back—and now Kohler's 8-year-old was crying. ...
