Happy 4th of July, the day where Americans celebrate imaginary freedom, and police departments nationwide make millions of dollars violating the rights of nonviolent individuals. Under the pretense of catching drunk drivers, police will be patrolling the streets and setting up checkpoints all over the country this weekend. In some cases they will arrest drunk drivers, in others they will search and arrest nonviolent drug offenders, while other people may get citations for problems with their vehicle or registration. Especially for people who haven’t even done anything wrong, these checkpoints are a gross violation of privacy and other natural born rights. Free people should not be ...

Today is the day we celebrate our Independence from England, the day we celebrate the adoption of the Declaration of Independence on July 4, 1776, by the Continental Congress. Declaring that the thirteen American colonies regarded themselves as a new nation, the United States of America, and no longer part of the British Empire. In Romans chapter 13:1-6 we read: 1 ¶ Let every soul be subject unto the higher powers. For there is no power but of God: the powers that be are ordained of God. 2 Whosoever therefore resisteth the power, resisteth the ordinance of God: and they that resist shall receive to themselves damnation. 3 For rulers are not a terror to good works, but to the evil. ...
Google Photos Mislabels 2 Black Americans as Gorillas

The image recognition software built into Google Photos is impressive. Show it a photo of the Eiffel Tower, and it will know that picture was taken in Paris. Snap an image of a dog or a tree, and it will automatically put them in a group with all your other pictures of dogs or trees. But the software is far from foolproof. And when it fails, it does so in a spectacular way — as when it recently processed a photo of two black friends and labeled them “Gorillas.” Jacky Alcine, a 21-year old programmer who lives in Brooklyn, N.Y., was checking out his Google Photos account last night when he saw that the service had automatically generated a folder titled ...

A Conservative Firebrand From The Start, Ted Cruz Always Had A Plan

This story is part of NPR's series Journey Home. We're going to the places presidential candidates call home and finding out what those places tell us about how they see the world. Boldness comes more naturally to Ted Cruz than compromise. Barely through his first year in the Senate, the Texas Republican bucked his party leaders and became the public face of a government shutdown while standing up for conservative ideals. Rewind three decades back, and you'd find Cruz selling a similar message as a teenager in Houston. You could say Cruz ran with a gang in high school. Their colors were blue jacket, white shirt, red tie. They called themselves the Constitutional Corroborators. ...

Court Tosses Truck Owner’s Parking Citation Because Of A Missing Comma

(SarahMcGowen)It pays to read everything carefully — or rather, you might not have to pay a fine if you’re as sharp-eyed as one Ohio woman. She ended up having a parking citation tossed by an appeals court, all because she noticed there was a comma missing in the local law. As anyone who has ever written a sentence knows, punctuation is of the utmost importance. And in one Ohio village, English teachers are likely sighing and shaking their heads at a grammar mishap involving the local law on parking regulations. The Columbus Dispatch reports that the 12th District Court of Appeals overturned a parking violation [PDF] for a woman living in West Jefferson. She’d been convicted ...

They’re drooling over this one. All the scenarios they’ve been working on converge very neatly if they pull what they’re threatening “might happen” this Fourth of July weekend.If you listen to these two so-called warnings by these insiders you’ll hear the same talking points carefully repeated but all based on vague suppositions and strangely weak and no doubt made up facts and statistics. The “ex” CIA guy goes so far as to say he won’t be surprised if next week they’ll be sitting there talking about an attack that happened over the weekend, although they both reference “multiple attacks”, a type of false flag spree we’ve long ...

On June 19th, an accidental shooting involving a police officer was reported in Whitehall, Ohio. The officer was responding to an unrelated case, when a girl rushed over to him from a house down the street. Her sister Ava had been badly injured by a broken piece of glass, and was hoping the officer could help her. He decided to investigate the situation before calling an ambulance. Once inside, the family dog apparently charged at him, causing him to open fire on the dog. But instead of hitting the animal, he accidentally struck Ava in the leg (She’s currently in stable condition, and is recovering from her injuries). As bad as that sounds, the family has revealed their side of the ...

CNNAs Americans prepare to celebrate Independence Day, officials in the FBI and the Department of Homeland Security are warning us that there's a heightened threat of Islamist terrorist attacks. CNN is reporting that law enforcement officials believe that the Islamist threat is "the highest in years." CIA deputy director turned CBS security analyst Michael Morrell declared, "I wouldn't be surprised if we're sitting here a week from today talking about an attack over the weekend in the United States. That's how serious this is."So just how "serious" is the risk? Well, the risks to American lives aren't very big. Things don't look good, ...

The 46-year-old polygamist said he decided to act in the wake of recent Supreme Court decision Nathan Collier said he was inspired by the recent Supreme Court decision that made marriage equal. He said he was particularly struck by the words of dissenting Chief Justice John Roberts who claimed giving gay couples the right to marry, might inspire polygamy. And so this week, Mr Collier and his two wives, Victoria and Christine, entered a courthouse in Billings, Montana, and sought an application to legalise the trio’s polygamous union, “Right now we're waiting for an answer," Mr Collier told The Independent. “I have two wives because I love two women and I want my ...

The Pentagon and Lockheed Martin have defended the F-35 Joint Strike Fighter after it lost a mock dogfight with an old F-16, saying report of encounter is 'misleading' The £620bn F35 was seemingly no match for the vintage F16 (right) An extraordinary defence of the troubled F-35 Joint Strike Fighter has been issued by the Pentagon and Lockheed Martin, the lead company building the jet. The response came after influential military blog “War is Boring” published a story claiming the new “5th generation” jet – which Britain is buying a fleet of – was unable to beat a 1970s design F-16 “4th generation” fighter in a mock dogfight.

It's funny how many times Senator Rand Paul finds himself running away when the topic of immigration reform pops up. Rep. Steve King, one of the most xenophobic Republicans in Congress, recently defended Donald Trump's anti- Mexican rants on CNN. “I’d say in Donald Trump’s defense, someone’s doing that to these kids that are being raped and abused,” King continued. “And, when they’re coming across Mexico, it’s a reasonable assumption to conclude the people doing that are Mexicans.” So when Rand Paul was having lunch with Rep. Steve King and an Iowan voter asked if he agreed with Donald Trump and Rep. King on the Mexican rapists ...

Former Texas Gov. Rick Perry on Thursday disavowed controversial remarks about immigrants from fellow Republican presidential hopeful Donald Trump. "I don't think Donald Trump's remarks reflect the Republican Party," Perry said during a speech in Washington outlining his economic plan to support poorer communities. "I think the Republican Party is reflected in people like me," Perry added, turning to his economic agenda to argue Hispanic voters should look to the GOP come 2016. "I think we have a great message for the Hispanic community," he said. Few Republicans have spoken out over Trump's remarks, which sparked outcry among Hispanic groups and ...

Fifty-seven percent of Americans said they see the flag as evoking Southern pride in the CNN/ORC poll released Thursday, compared to 33 percent who believe it is racist. Those numbers show little movement since a similar poll from 2000. Click for Full Text!

When Donald Trump said something not exuberantly enthusiastic about Mexican immigrants, the media’s response was to boycott him. One thing they didn’t do was produce any facts showing he was wrong. Trump said: “When Mexico sends its people, they’re not sending their best. They’re not sending you. They’re not sending you. They’re sending people that have lots of problems, and they’re bringing those problems to us. They’re bringing drugs. They’re bringing crime. They’re rapists. And some, I assume, are good people.” The first thing a news fact-checker would have noticed is: THE GOVERNMENT WON’T TELL US HOW MANY IMMIGRANTS ARE ...

A US Girl Scouts group has returned a $100,000 cheque after the donor wanted an assurance that the money would not be used to support transgender girls. Megan Ferland, chief executive, said returning the money was "one of the easiest decisions I've had to make. It was a sad decision, but a really quick one," she added. Ms Ferland said while not many participants in their programmes are transgender, it was the principle of the matter which made the decision so straightforward. "Girl Scouts is for every girl. It always has been and always will be," she said. "I could not be put in a position where I would have to turn girls away." Girl Scouts USA, the ...

It’s really weird to see one of the more masculine and patriarchal professional sports keep making politically correct steps to convince America that it isn’t masculine and patriarchal. I guess this year they’re gonna ramp it up with the first ever LGBT (Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, Transgender) celebration! And of course it had to be the Detroit Lions: The Detroit Lions are set to host what is believed to be the NFL’s first LGBT night, according to a report in the Detroit Free Press. The Detroit Regional LGBT Chamber of Commerce says it will hold a pride event during the Lions’ game against the Minnesota Vikings on Oct. 25 at Ford Field. It would follow similar LGBT ...

Former Federal Judge Slams Drug War, Compares Effects to Aftermath of World War II

This weekend, a former federal judge delivered a scathing rebuke on the Drug War—the same one she spent 17 years waging. In a brief talk at The Aspen Ideas Festival in Colorado, Nancy Gertner—who was nominated to the bench by Bill Clinton in 1994— highlighted many elements of the failed federal policy. She even went so far as to compare the effects of the Drug War to the aftermath of World War II, suggesting a similar post-war strategy to deal with the modern catastrophe. Gertner said she handed down 500 sanctions during her tenure, the vast majority of which were unjustified. (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}); “80 percent I believe were unfair and ...

http://www.nationalreview.com Progressive Mass Hysteria by Victor Davis Hanson June 30, 2015 4:00 AM One of the most harrowing incidents in the Athenian historian Thucydides’ history of the Peloponnesian War is the democratic debate over the rebellious subject state of Mytilene on the distant island of Lesbos. Thucydides uses his riveting account of the Athenian argument over the islanders’ fate to warn his readers of the fickle nature of democracy. Outraged by the revolt of the Mytileneans, the frenzied Athenians suddenly assemble and vote to condemn all the adult males on the island, regardless of the role any of them may have played in the revolt. They are to be executed ...
