Do “blue lives” matter more than other lives?According to Louisiana Governor John Bel Edwards, they do. He signed a new law last week making attacks on armed government workers – you know, cops – a “hate crime” subject to harsher and additional penalties than would otherwise apply.Edwards – a former armed government worker himself – has an interesting view of crime and punishment, as well as of rights. These vary in degree according to such things as the color of the uniform one wears.Punch a mere peon (not uniformed) in the face because you hate the guy’s guts and it’s still a crime, but a lesser one. “Hate” enters into it ...

WASHINGTON — Edward Snowden performed a "public service" in stoking a national debate about secret domestic surveillance programs, but he should still return to the U.S. to stand trial, former U.S. Attorney General Eric Holder said in a podcast released on Monday. As a National Security Agency contractor, Snowden leaked classified details in 2013 of the U.S. government's warrantless surveillance of its citizens before fleeing the country. He now lives in Russia and faces U.S. charges that could land him in prison for up to 30 years. In a podcast interview with CNN political commentator David Axelrod, Holder said that Snowden had grown concerned that the domestic spying ...

For several days, I’ve been corresponding with a 22-year-old Donald Trump supporter. He is white, has a bachelor’s degree, and earns $50,000 to $60,000 per year. He lives near San Francisco. “I recently became engaged to my Asian fiancée who is making roughly 3 times what I make, and I am completely supportive of her and proud she is doing so well,” he wrote. “We’ve both benefitted a lot from globalization. We are young, urban, and have a happy future planned. We seem molded to be perfect young Hillary supporters,” he observed, “but we're not. In 2016, we're both going for Trump.” At first, we discussed Bill Clinton. Last ...

LONDON (AP) — Stephen Hawking understands the workings of the universe — but says he cannot fathom the popularity of Donald Trump. The British astrophysicist told ITV's morning show Monday that the presumptive Republican Party candidate for U.S. president "is a demagogue who seems to appeal to the lowest common denominator." Hawking also appealed to British voters to vote to keep the United Kingdom inside the European Union in a June 23 referendum. He said remaining within the EU provided essential support for British scientific research as well as its economy and security. He said: "Gone are the days we could stand on our own against the world. We need to be ...

However, he would not get a check up that day — instead, he’d be brutalized and arrested.Because of the injuries Olivia sustained during the assault, Olivia says he’s had to undergo two separate surgeries — one on his throat and one on his shoulder.On February 16, as the elderly veteran attempted to walk through the metal detectors at the entrance to the VA clinic, the guards tell him to empty his pockets, and he does. That’s when things go south.The VA police officers then tell Olivia to put his ID in the bucket. He informs them that his ID is in the ...

San Diego, CA — When considering how riots start, it is important to note who comes dressed for a riot. All too often, police tactics ostensibly designed to protect and calm citizens end up having the opposite effect. Tactics such as “kettling” push non-violent peaceful protesters to their limits by forcing them into tight spaces where they are surrounded by storm troopers in body armor banging on their shields with batons.Who wouldn’t take this tactic as an aggressive move meant to provoke?Many officers know that this response to protests has a stressful, intimidating, and provoking effect on those it’s employed against and this was recently ...

Houston police responded to a report of a shooting in progress at 10:15 a.m. and arrived at Memorial Drive where at least one suspect repeatedly shot at officers, Police Chief Martha Montalvo said at a Sunday afternoon news conference. "Our primary responding officer is lucky to be alive and was unhurt when the suspect opened fire on his patrol vehicle as it arrived on scene," police wrote in a Facebook post alongside photos of the car riddled with bullet holes. Local residents were told to stay inside or "avoid the area." An officer ...

As Hillary Clinton seeks to rebound from a highly critical report from the State Department’s inspector general, Senate investigators and a conservative group are zeroing in on newly revealed evidence about the activities of a now retired State Department computer specialist in orchestrating what they charge was a “cover-up” of the former secretary of state’s email practices. The role of John Bentel, whose identity as a key figure in the email probes was first reported by Yahoo News on Wednesday, is expected to be one focus of questioning today when Clinton’s former chief of staff, Cheryl Mills, is deposed in a lawsuit brought by Judicial Watch over the State ...

C3 Corvette Barn Find Represents Awesome Americana at Its Best

One aspect that I find most entertaining about being a Corvette Forum member is seeing all the noobs come in, and how quickly our members are able to spot which ones are for real, and which ones are the weak and timid pre-teens borrowing their parent’s Hewlett Packard. The latter provides some entertainment, where as the former is what keeps growing Corvette Forum into what it is today. In this example of a new guy looking for advice, we are greeted not only with a barn find, but one with significant drag racing history (or so it seems), and also an accompanying Corvette that was used as — get this — a tow vehicle. Awesome Americana doesn’t really come more pure than ...

Why doesn't the media call this dickhead out? The atrocities the Japanese did during WWII were probably worse than the Germans. The war had to be ended. If we just played around, the war would have gone on for decades. He is a lame duck president with only the approval of dumb ass blacks, queers, sluts, and communists. He does this while jetting around in style. He is pandering to the lowest element. Why isn't he exposed for the trash he is.

Boston, MA — An infuriating video was uploaded to Facebook this week showing an off-duty Boston cop tackling a small older man in a fit of road rage. According to multiple witnesses, the cop nearly hit the older gentlemen as he drove through a crosswalk.After almost being run over by the incompetent cop, the older man, who was on foot, simply tapped the cop’s window with his umbrella to alert him to the fact that he nearly hit him. This tapping on the window set the cop off into a fit of rage, leading to him chasing down, tackling, and assaulting the innocent man.When the older gentleman saw the raging lunatic jump out of his vehicle and chase him, he naturally ran.

If the prospect of being investigated by the criminal justice system is enough to drive police officers to suicide, why should those of us not protected by “Blue Privilege” have any trust in it?“I think cops are more afraid of the [criminal justice] system because they are close to it,” Professor Eugene O’Donnell of the John Jay College of Criminal Justice told Newsday columnist Antony M. Destafano. “Outsiders” cannot sympathize with the burdens of police officers who are investigated for official misconduct or criminal offenses, O’Donnell insists, because they face “three threats: loss of job, loss of reputation and loss of freedom if ...

New legislation dubbed the “Criminal Justice Reform Act” was passed by lawmakers Wednesday, giving miscreants a get-out-of-jail-free card by eliminating the criminal penalties on a raft of quality-of-life crimes. The disgusting and disturbing acts that the council voted to decriminalize include drinking alcohol out of a paper bag, lurking in parks after hours, urinating in the street and making enough of a racket ...

Triumphantly armed with a majority of his party's delegates, Republican Donald Trump unleashed a broadside attack Thursday on Hillary Clinton's prescriptions for energy, guns, the economy and international affairs, shifting abruptly toward the general election with his likely Democratic opponent locked in a divisive primary contest. The New York billionaire shrugged off signs of discord within his own campaign hours after sewing up the number of delegates needed to clinch the GOP nomination, a feat that completed an unlikely rise that has upended the political landscape and set the stage for a bitter fall campaign. "Here I am watching Hillary fight, and she can't close ...

Dana Rohrabacher (R-CA) made the comments at a meeting of the National Organization for the Reform of Marijuana Laws (NORML).Cannabis Radio reported:““I haven’t been able to go surfing for a year-and-a-half and ...
