World War 3, U.S. False Flag Front: Idaho Sheriffs demanding Armored Fighting Vehicles!

17 May 2013 (11:17 UTC-07 Tango)/07 Rajab 1434/27 Ordibehest 1391/08 Ding-Si (4th month) 4711

Local southeast Idaho news media reporting that the Sheriff of sparsely populated Bear Lake County is begging residents to fork up the bucks to buy an expensive BearCat Armored Fighting Vehicle, supposedly to fight the growing violent crime in the county.

According to the U.S. Census Bureau, 2010 data, there were only 6001 people residing in Bear Lake County.    According to FBI Uniform Crime Reports data, from 2001 to 2008 there was a total of 312 crimes reported in Bear Lake County, only 15 were considered violent!

In fact, the Federal Bureau of Investigation is reporting that their 2012 UCR data shows a continued drop in violent crime across the United States, so what is this Sheriff from Bear Lake County, Idaho, talking about?

But wait, there’s more!

North of Bear Lake County is another bigger county, and the Sheriff is demanding a BearCat AFV for his deputies as well!

Bannock County Sheriff Lorin Nielsen is making the same claim; violent crime has climbed so high that “This has been, as I refer to it, the year from hell. We have been involved in three officer-involved shootings in the last year.”

For most metropolitan areas of the United States, three officer involved shootings is a good year!

Because of the three officer involved shootings, Nielsen wants to get a tank on wheels to protect his deputies.  That’s strange because it was his officers that were doing the shooting!!!  Do they plan on more shootings and they’re afraid people might start shooting back?

The BearCat AFV is claimed to be able to withstand a .50 caliber (12.7 mm) bullet.  To date there have been no officer involved shootings where the suspect was using an expensive and big .50 caliber gun!!!

The BearCat can carry 12 Boston Strong false flagger take your rights away from you paramilitary cops.  Some local law enforcement agencies in Idaho don’t even have that many cops!!!

The 2010 Census Bureau data for Bannock County, Idaho, shows a population of 83691.  From 2008 through 2009 there were about 11000 ‘crimes’ (including false calls to 911).  The overwhelming majority of those crimes were not violent crimes!  So why does the Bannock County Sheriff really want a tank on wheels?   (he already has an older one, but it lacks a heater and it gets cold in there in winter)

But wait, there’s more!

Next door, in Power County, Jim Jeffries the Sheriff said “Anything that can happen anywhere else will eventually happen in our hometowns, and in our counties. If you are going to have a team, it’s important to train that team to do the tactical things that they need to do.”

Sounds to me like Idaho Sheriffs are prepping for a little Boston Strong police stateism in the sparsely populated Gem State.

According to the U.S. Census Bureau, 2010 data, there were only 7766 people residing in Power County, Idaho.   Unfortunately Power County does have more crime than Bear Lake County.  According to FBI Uniform Crime Reports data, from 1999 to 2008 there was a total of 1257 crimes reported.  But only 83 were considered violent!

But wait, there’s more!

In toto, all six southeastern Idaho county Sheriffs are begging the underemployed residents to fork up the bucks to buy the AFVs.  And that’s even after they get grants from the U.S. Department of Homeland Security, and use money legally stolen from people who were arrested for drug related crimes.  (how expensive are these damned Lenco BearCats? About $260000 for one)

World War 3, War on Terror: So they killed bin Laden? So what! U.S. says the war will go on for 20 more years!

“This is the most disturbing hearing I’ve been to in some time.  You guys have rewritten the Constitution today!  You guys have invented this term, ‘associated forces’, that’s nowhere in this document.  It’s the justification for everything, and it renders the war powers of Congress null and void!“-Angus King, U.S. Senator from Maine, upon hearing the U.S. Defense Department’s plans to continue the War on Terror

A year ago John Brennan, U.S. CIA boss, said “…the al Qaeda core is no longer relavant.”  Two months ago James Clapper, director of U.S. National Intelligence, testified to the U.S. Senate saying al Qaeda is “…probably unable to carryout large scale, complex attacks on the west.”  But, just a couple days ago Michael Sheehan, assistant secretary of defense for special operations and low-intensity conflict, said the U.S. led War on Terror will last another “…10 to 20 years.”

Senator John McCain revealed one of the new fronts in the War on Terror: “…North Africa…”

Sheehan also revealed a new front in the War on Terror, the United States, when he said the War on Terror stretches “…from Boston to the FATA [Pakistan].”

The U.S. Department of Treasury has ordered the halt to sales of federal government bonds to state and local governments.  This is an attempt to keep the federal government from hitting debt limits, despite the fact that on Sunday the limit is supposedly to be raised.  Bonds are a form of debt.

The Treasury is also ending the investment of funds for federal employees’ retirement programs, as well as considering raping the federal retirement system for needed cash!

Treasury officials blame the U.S. Congress for not fixing the debt problem.

And Justice for All, Bull Shit!: Investigation reveals massive Sentencing screwup in U.S. prisons!

15 May 2013 (01:08 UTC-07 Tango)/05 Rajab 1434/25 Ordibehest 1391/06 Ding-Si (4th month) 4711

In the U.S. state of Colorado, it’s been revealed that hundreds, if not thousands, of prisoners have had their sentences screwed up for years, supposedly because of a lack of communication between the courts and the prisons!

Some prisoners got out early, while others are still languishing in prison for minor offenses.

According to the Denver Post, the sentencing errors were revealed when a prisoners who should not have been released was so, and then allegedly committed murder.

Governor John Hickenlooper ordered an audit (investigation).  Already massive amounts of improper sentencing has been found in 349 cases, another 8415 cases identified as needing review!

Judges are now scrambling to make corrections to the corrections facilities foul ups.  Court clerks are being blamed for not properly communicating the court sentences to the prison officials (how can you screw that up?).

For decades, in past jobs I’ve had, I had co-workers who were ex-convicts and they all talked about this kind of bullshit.  Most claiming to being treated as if they were murders when they committed minor crimes, like burglary.  They would claim that prison officials ignored their pleas to check their court sentences, most could not afford an attorney.  At first I though ‘yeah, typical ex-con’, but I’ve heard the same stories from California, to Arizona, to Idaho, and started to wounder why so many across several states had similar stories?

(when I was a local TV news producer in Arizona I would get calls from prisoners all the time asking for help because they were still in prison when they should have been released. But guess what folks, it’s an unwritten rule in U.S. TV journalism not to cover prisoner issues, that’s what my news director told me when I asked about investigating the prisoners’ claims!!!)

Now the state of Colorado admits to screwing up prisoners’ sentences.  What was that about the U.S. justice system being the fairest in the World?  Bull shit!

If you can’t trust the current justice system, how the hell can you trust Obama and the U.S. Congress (republicans & democrats) with their War on Terror, Gitmo, NDAA 2013, and virtual martial law?!

In New York, Rapid-American bankrupt.  Company officials blame asbestos related personal injury lawsuits.  The Bruckner Bar and Grill shut down, owners blame damage from hurricane Sandy and a landlord that doesn’t want to abide by his own lease.  The Mahopac Falls Elementary School being closed: “The reason we are closing the building is not because of the budget, but because of the changing demographics.”-Raymond Cote, Board of Education President

World War 3, Gun Control Front: Elitist Techies admit they want to ban guns! No more mobile purchases of guns!

“By creating a Square Account, you also confirm that you will not accept payments in connection with the following businesses or business activities:…..(23) sales of (i) firearms, firearm parts or hardware, and ammunition;  or (ii) weapons and other devices designed to cause physical injury….”-Square

Quietly, about a week ago a mobile payment service called Square decided to ban all gun/weapon purchases.

Previously their gun/weapon purchase ban was in regards to internet purchases, now it applies anywhere.

Jack Dorsey, a co-founder of Twitter, swears it has nothing to do with the anti-gun/anti-Constitution policies of President Obama and New York mayor Michael Bloomberg.

However, Dorsey admits he loves New York mayor Bloomberg and would like to follow in his anti-Constitutional footsteps: “I think that Mayor Bloomberg has done an amazing job, and I and a lot of Silicon Valley look to him as a guiding light because he’s completely rethought what it means to be mayor.”

World War 3, Gun Control Front: DoJ & CDC Data proves Anti-Gun False Flaggers are full of shit!!!

14 May 2013 (21:39 UTC-07 Tango 13 May 2013)/04 Rajab 1434/24 Ordibehest 1391/05 Ding-Si (4th month) 4711

Going by the U.S. main streamer news media, and our exalted ‘elected’ leaders, you’d think the United States was being hit with record increased levels of gun violence.  Not so, according to the U.S. Department of Justice (DoJ) and the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC).

In fact, the DoJ and CDC says the U.S. is experiencing record low levels of gun violence!!!

According to the Pew Research Center 56% of people living in the U.S. think gun violence is at an all time high.

According to the CDC and the DoJ, across the board gun violence is way down from the peak in 1993.   And the CDC data shows current gun violence rates are even lower than gun violence in 1981.  That includes intentional criminal violence and unintentional accidents!

Depending on which report you look at, the percent of murders by gun dropped 39-49% from 1993 to 2011!

Percent of criminal gun injuries dropped 69%!

And for those anti-gunners who want to go after individual sales at gun shows (like they’ve done in California) the stats prove their arguments fallacious.  Less than 2% of convicted gun using criminals acquired their gun at a gun show, and 40% got their guns from already illegal sources!!!

And for those anti-gunners who want to get rid of military type weapons (which is actually what the 2nd Amendment guarantees our right of access to) the DoJ data (Firearm Violence, 1993-2011) proves them full of shit.   Up to 90% of gun violence is done with a pistola!  Only 2% of state convicts, and 3% of federal convicts used military style weapons!

What’s also amazing is that many anti-gunners have been demanding the CDC study gun violence, well dummies, the CDC (16 states under the National Violent Death Reporting System, and WISQARS) has been studying gun violence!  It’s long been assumed by pro-gunners that the CDC was anti-gun and would skew any data they collected, but surprise, surprise, surprise.  The CDC data actually proves gun violence has been dropping!

The DoJ and CDC refuse to explain why gun violence has dropped. Could it have something to do with the ever increasing (and seemingly corresponding) gun ownership of Constitutional abiding U.S. citizens?
