Jeff Sessions is appointed as the Attorney General. The squinty eyed bigot.
Jeff Sessions is confirmed as the next Attorney General of the United States.
Formerly a federal prosecutor and senator, Sessions will run the U.S. Justice Department. He will likely make the department even more polarizing. The confirmation vote came with a partisan vote.
Sen. Joe Manchin (D-WV) joined the Republicans in putting Session in the department. Manchin who is up for reelection in 2018 is the second most vulnerable Democrat running for reelection. He is disliked among Democrats and poorly among West Virginia residents.
Sessions couldn't vote on himself. So he voted present.
The fuhrer Donald J. Trump fired acting attorney general Sally Yates, who didn't back the fuhrer's executive order banning Muslims and immigrants from entering the country.
Sessions was opposed by many civil rights groups, who have concerns about his record on voting rights and hate crimes. Many Democrats doubted that Sessions would stand up to the fuhrer.
Democrats can oppose all they want, the Republicans got the advantage when former senator Harry Reid got rid of the 60 vote majority rule on cabinet nominees.
The trial is on. Betty Shelby will face a jury for the death of unarmed man.
Betty Shelby was hoping to have the grand jury throw out her murder charge on the grounds of self-defense. She thought wrong. Trial's on.
She is accused of shooting Terrence Crutcher in the summer of 2016. She was responding to another call when she spotted his vehicle in the middle of the road. She immediately investigated the situation. Crutcher at first seemed to cooperate with her order but refused to listen because he was allegedly high on PCP. She would shoot and kill Terrence upon him getting near his vehicle.
Upon inspection, he had no firearm on him.
Again, I highly doubt she'll be convicted given the track record. The track record of officers getting away with murder is why it's sparking tension between police and the communities they're supposed to protect.
Will his family see justice?
Assured that for every bad cop, a good cop will likely be killed. It's the damn truth. If the police departments refuse to root out the wrong, then the wrong will get them.
These high profile police shootings of unarmed Black people has sparked the Black Lives Matter movement. And it's told that many activists are concerned that the court system is rigged to let cops get away with murder.
Shelby wants to get this dismissed on grounds of self-defense. She wants the court to dig up his past convictions to justify her use of deadly force.
She could face LIFE in the iron college for the charges. She is innocent until proven guilty in a court of law.
Denzel Washington and Viola Davis stars in the movie Fences. The movie is nominated for an Academy Award.
For the Oscars, it's going to be a tad bit diverse. After two consecutive years of all-White nominees, the Academy Awards has decided to get things right.
The Academy nominated 10 black actors and filmmakers. It also has six-African American themed films, an Indian adventure, and Pacific Islander-themed movie.
Name recognition goes to Barry Jenkins, who scored a nomination for Moonlight. Ava DuVernay's 13th was nominated for her documentary as well as Raoul Peck's I Am Not Your Negro and OJ: Made In America from Ezra Edelman.
The black themed movies for Best Picture include Moonlight, Fences and Hidden Figures.
Denzel Washington, Octavia Spencer, Viola Davis, Ruth Negga, Mahershala Ali, and Naomie Harris were nominated for an Oscar.
Birth of Nation was snubbed. Nate Parker's hit movie was scarred by allegations of rape being brought to light.
Hollywood is trying to make strives in diversity. Of course, during the 2014-15 session, #OscarsSoWhite became a lightening rod in the entertainment industry. Many actors of color denounced the awards for not advocating diversity.
Terrorist was caught after he murdered his girlfriend and an Orlando metro cop. He also blamed for the unintentional death of an Orange County deputy.
While I was busy, I heard about the tragic death of an Orlando police officer gunned down after responding to a domestic violence call. The killer was caught without a shot fired but he was sure roughed up.
Now as he is facing trial for capital murder, the conservative agitators and the white extremists are now pointing the finger at BlackLivesMatter, Barack Obama and Black America.
So if they want to blame BLM and Obama for the selfless actions of this terrorist, then I should just turn it around and blame conservatives, the fuhrer Donald J. Trump, Mike Pence, Rick Scott, Marco Rubio and the Republican Party for the actions of this terrorist. He has used his Second Amendment remedies to end the life of his pregnant girlfriend and a dedicated officer.
For the first time in 2017, a Black suspect in a cop killing lives to face trial.
For every corrupt cop, a good cop loses their life to the senseless gun violence. When they start charging cops for the murder of unarmed citizens, then the people of color will speak about criminal activity. When cops decide to breakthrough the Blue Wall of Silence, then it's possible for the community they've serve to get their respect. No one says thank you enough. And for good reason.
Now the terrorist Markeith Loyd was the most wanted man in Florida. He had assistance in his nine day escapade. He managed to slip the feds and state boys for that long. He had help.
The terrorist managed to kill 24 year old Sade Dixon after a dispute over him being the father of her child. He would put her brother in the hospital as well. He would survive the injuries.
Debra Clayton was gunned down after responding to the disturbance.
He was spotted at Walmart when officer Debra Clayton responded to the disturbance. He would put a bullet in her. She would die of her injuries. That sparked a police chase. While trying to elude authorities, an Orange County Boy Norman Lewis was killed in a motorcycle crash.
The terrorist is held in medical ward with armed police presence. He will be facing charges of first degree murder, unlawful killing of an unborn child, attempted first degree murder, and two counts of aggravated assault with a firearm stemming from that incident. The shooting of Clayton will likely be capital murder. He may face charges for the involuntary death of Lewis.
The deaths of Sade Dixon and Norman Lewis rest on the feet of the terrorist.
The driver of the vehicle that killed Lewis will likely face involuntary vehicular homicide charges.
The driver of the vehicle was a 78-year old man. Billy Jarrard will face the charges for that act.
They are innocent until proven guilty in a court of law.
I won't offer condolences and sympathy. Words can't bring these people back. Locking these dirtbags up won't stop the ongoing violence here in the United States. Blaming everyone but the shooter will keep the cycle of violence going. So if you want me to show sympathy, it's not going to happen.
I would like to see Congress do something about the gun violence in the United States. But that's asking too much from a bunch of worthless lawmakers.
Rep. John Lewis (D-GA) isn't attending the fuhrer's ceremony.
I will be watching something else on television if possible. I will not watch any events in honor of this man.
Nearly 40 Democratic lawmakers vow to oppose the fuhrer. They refuse to give credence towards a man who engaged in the most divisive man to ever run this country.
Jennifer Holliday bows out after many of her supporters vowed to boycott her shows. She cited that she had a scheduling rearrangement. The B Street Band backed out. They said they bowed out outta of respect towards Bruce Springsteen. The pressure is on 3 Doors Down and Toby Keith.
Keith is unapologetic. He said that he's done it for the two previous presidents. He will perform for the fuhrer.
Now the inaugural tickets are being passed out for free. It's not going to be HUGE event as he once promoted.
Trump's rhetoric has turned people off. He will not respect the polls or the public opinion about his policies.
Do you miss Barack Obama already?
We've taken a step forward putting a person of color in the White House. The Democratic Party has overcome the racist past. Now it's got to get away from the corporate capitalism that keeps the rich richer and the poor poorer.
The Republican Party was then the party of change. Yet, it's only change is the color of the hair on most of the White men and women who represent the party as a whole.
Cleveland Police officers Frank Garmack and Tim Loehmann may have escaped a state and federal murder charge but they're not out of the woods yet. They have an internal investigation they are dealing with.
This could eventually have them fired out the cannon. They both have been in the freezer pending the outcome of the federal civil rights investigation. In November 2014, the two approached Tamir Rice at a park. They responded to a call of a young male with a firearm. Loehmann within a few seconds of contact shot and killed Tamir as he exited the cruiser.
William Cunningham was also named in this investigation as well and he could be fired out the cannon.
They have hearings at the end of the month, according to local media.
Loehmann faces six charges for falsifying previous employment history on his application for the Cleveland Police Department. Loehmann did not disclose that he “was allowed to resign” from his prior job at the Independence, Ohio, Police Department, local media reported.
He may have also failed to mention he had been insubordinate and dishonest to a superior, and that the department had concluded that he had, “an inability to emotionally function.”
Garmback, who drove Loehmann to the scene, faces two charges stemming from allegations that he drove too close to Rice while responding and did not let the dispatcher know when he arrived. The third officer, Cunningham, is alleged to have been off-duty and working an unpermitted second job at the Cudell Recreation Center at the time of the shooting, and is accused of completing and signing a false report.
If found guilty, they can be suspended without pay or their jobs could be terminated.
The Cleveland Police Association President Stephen Loomis issued a statement defending the officers.
“There is no question, and there has never been, that the death of Tamir Rice was tragic,” Loomis said in the statement. “Nevertheless, all agree that Officer Loehmann was not wrong in reacting the way he did.”
He added that it was disappointing that Garmback was being charged for driving too close to Rice, “when it is apparent that the car slid in the ice and mud well beyond what he had intended.”
Loehmann and Garmback, who are white, had responded to a report of a “guy with a pistol” at the Cudell Recreation Center on Nov. 22, 2014, where Rice, who was black, had been playing. While the person who called police had mentioned the gun was “probably fake,” that description was not mentioned to the responding officers, according to local media.
More than a year after a grand jury declined to criminally charge Cleveland police officers for the fatal shooting of 12-year-old Tamir Rice, who was carrying a toy gun at the time, the police chief announced Friday that they are facing internal disciplinary charges.
Loehmann, who shot Rice, faces six charges for falsifying previous employment history on his application for the Cleveland Police Department. Loehmann did not disclose that he “was allowed to resign” from his prior job at the Independence, Ohio, Police Department, local media reported.

He may have also failed to mention he had been insubordinate and dishonest to a superior, and that the department had concluded that he had, “an inability to emotionally function.”

While the person who called police had mentioned the gun was “probably fake,” that description was not mentioned to the responding officers, according to local media.
Within a second of exiting the car, Loehmann shot Rice, who at that point had an airsoft pellet gun in his waistband. The shooting triggered a national uproar, resurfacing a history of black boys and men dying at the hands of police and spurring several investigations.
The next month, U.S. Attorney General Eric Holder released an unrelated report that Cleveland police had consistently exhibited unnecessary and excessive use of force – even in cases where police were simply called for a mental health check.
“Accountability and legitimacy are essential for communities to trust their police departments,” Holder said in a statement at the time, “and for there to be genuine collaboration between police and the citizens they serve.”
Details of Loehmann’s previous employment history also emerged in local media outlets.
Corrupt cop Frank Garmback tried to cover for Loehmann.
One year later, a Cuyahoga County grand jury decided that Loehmann and Garmback should not be charged, a decision that the county prosecutor upheld.
Since then, an internal police committee has spent a year focusing on the two officers, which led to the charges police announced on Friday.
The Justice Department is also reviewing the case to see whether they violated any federal civil rights laws.
Rice’s mother told the Associated Press after the announcement on Friday that she was upset that Loehmann is avoiding charges for a second time for his use of force, and that both officers should be fired.
“I think this process has taken entirely too long,” Samaria Rice said.
They are innocent until proven guilty by a grand jury.
10 day vacation for corrupt Fort Worth cop who busted mom after she told him a stranger assaulted her boy.
We know the name of the cop who arrested Jacqueline Craig in December. His name is William Martin and the Fort Worth Police placed him in the freezer pending an internal investigation.
Martin arrested Craig after a brief argument that turned ugly and it was filmed and shared on Facebook over 3 million times.
He's "snarky" comment on parenting got him in some deep shit. He was on camera saying to Craig that she should be a better parent. Craig called the law on an accusation of a man placing his hands on the neck of her 7 year old son.
Martin who was called to the area didn't pursue charges against the man. He instead arrested Craig and the 15 and 18 year olds who were in the vicinity.
Immediately after the incident, the officer was placed on "restrictive duty status by order of the Chief of the Police" pending an outcome from Internal Affairs.
Martin would apologize for the incident. Martin is a 10 year veteran with the department.
Craig's attorney said that the punishment was not harsh enough.
"You would get more justice if someone kicked a dog," said Jasmine Crockett, Craig's attorney.
Craig was tearful when the news of the punishment came.
His superiors and the police union disagreed with the freezer burn. They believed that the chief's demand to place the officer in the freezer was too harsh. They wanted the chief to be more lenient.
Joel Fitzgerald, the chief of Fort Worth Police said that Martin violated some its rules. He cited that Martin had a neglect of duty and discourtesy, noting that there was "some inappropriate contact with two of the females." Other findings include excessive force, failing to thoroughly investigate and conduct prejudicial to good order.
Fitzgerald said that the arrest was legal and the grand jury will decide whether he continues to be on the force or be loaded into the cannon and be fired out of it.
The Greater Dayton Regional Transit Authority covers the Dayton, Ohio and Montgomery County with a portion of the bus lines going into Greene County. It has 29 routes and also a mobility line for seniors and special need riders. The RTA also has overhead trolleys. The trolleybuses cover a portion of the city and inner suburbs.
Dayton is the smallest city in the United States to still have overhead electric trolleys. Other cities include Philadelphia, San Francisco, Seattle, and Boston. These cities have populations with over 500,000 residents.
In a city with 139,000 residents, the RTA is necessary for the 30,000 riders who use the public transit.
The RTA is facing a crisis within its ranks. The Amalgamated Transit Union Local 1385 is getting tired of dealing with the leadership's ineptness. Mark Doughney, the president of the RTA is facing calls for resignation after many drivers complained that the new rules imposed on drivers limit their break periods, their restroom breaks and time off.
Many of the drivers voiced frustration with the way RTA is working them. They now operate from 4:15 am on opening routes to nearly 2:30 am.
Now at the stroke of midnight, the city bus drivers will end their routes and walk off the job.
Dayton's mayor Nan Whaley and city's commissioners are pleading for RTA and the union to work out the differences for the sake of the community.
A strike could make life difficult for riders who need to get to work, school, or shopping districts.
A strike could cost RTA millions of dollars.
A strike could spell doom for union workers because if Republicans pass a NO STRIKE CLAUSE state law when it comes to public sector work, the RTA drivers could be fired out the cannon.
Ohio is a "right to work" state. The worker's unions across the country are being weakened by Republicans. They feel confident that they could destroy the unions and make employers hire people at lower wages and longer hours.
Ohio governor John Kasich and the federal government might get involved in this situation.
Some unfortunate facts about the RTA.
Many of the residents in this community support the fuhrer Donald J. Trump. So it won't be any surprise that some online white extremists are seething with glee watching others suffer. Most of the people who comment about the RTA often push racial stereotypes about the riders and the bus lines.
Many of them are assuming that many of the bus riders are geekers and druggies. Some openly call the workers, the riders and the people who support the RTA a bunch of NIGGERS or NIGGER-LOVERS. Some even resort to the childish name calling supporters LIBTARDS.
The junk food media here often sensationalize stories for ratings. I don't watch the news anymore because they allow Trump to win.
Beavercreek, Ohio a city that is located six miles from Dayton was a vocal opposition to the RTA and Greene County Area Transit Service having routes serve the Mall at Fairfield Commons.
The U.S. Department of Justice and Transportation warned Beavercreek that if they continue to deny bus service to the community they could lose funding for the city. Once the fuhrer Trump takes over, Beavercreek city leaders could ask for Rep. Mike Turner (R-OH) and Sen. Rob Portman (R-OH) to ask the DOJ to relinquish their recommendations. And Beavercreek could reinstate their public transportation ban.
RTA has wasted money big time on hydro-buses that hardly run, trolleybuses that don't often run and passing the expense onto the riders. I live in the rust belt city of Dayton. The city has trolley lines that are hardly used. I mean there is probably 100 miles of trolley line in the city and only 45 miles of the lines are used. The city fare is $1.75 for an adult. You can get a transfer for $.25 and it's good for a connecting trip for up to 1 hour and 30 minutes.
It's one of the highest fares in the state.
Compare that to larger Columbus with 80 routes and Cincinnati with 50 routes. You are paying up to $35 a week on public transit. The average bus pass for a month is $95.
Dayton has only 29 routes.
Routes 3,4,5,7 and 8 are the bus lines that have trolleybus service. Route 1 and 2 have trolleybus service on limited service.
Since 2013, RTA returned bus service to the Dayton International Airport. For 15 years the bus never went to the airport. You had to have take a bus near the area and walk to the local shuttle buses that serve the airport when air travelers had to leave their vehicle overnight.
Route 1 and 16 are the only buses that serves Greene County. The bus has 90 minute commuters to Wright State University and the Mall at Fairfield Commons. In 2016, Route 16 was realigned to serve Costco Wholesale, Kroger Marketplace and Miami Valley Hospital South Campus.
The U.S. Department of Defense and the RTA worked out an agreement to have special buses serve the Wright Patterson Air Force Base in Montgomery and Greene County. The buses operate two times a day.
The RTA doesn't connect to Miami County, Warren County, Butler County, the remaining portions of Greene County and Clarke County.
The Southern Ohio Regional Transit Authority (Cincy Metro), Transit Authority of Northern Kentucky (TANK) and Central Ohio Transit Authority (COTA) have buses that serve multiple counties, many business venues, their local airports and local attractions.
Dayton RTA has five transit stations. One that is located at the Westown shopping center. One that is located at the Eastown shopping center. One that is located in Trotwood which also serves at the Dayton Greyhound transit terminal. One located one mile from the Dayton mall. The final one is the downtown transit station which is located near the RTA headquarters.
The Dayton Mall has been under fire for banning the buses from the property. The only buses that serve the mall are routes that have very few riders. Route 23, 60 and 61 are crosstown buses that avoid downtown Dayton. The buses operate on a limited schedule and often are completed by 10pm.
Many of the county buses and crosstown Route 24 avoid the mall. They head to the transit hub or have a local stop about 1/2 mile from the mall.
Ohio State Route 741 known as Springboro Pike was reworked to have sidewalks. The speed limit was previously 45 mph. Now it's localized to 40 mph. They moved the pedestrian crosswalks to an area that is 1/2 mile from Ohio State Route 725. The Miami Township Police maintain a heavy presence around the mall. The Ohio State Patrol maintains traffic control on most roads around the mall.
Lyons Road where the South Transit Center is located is 1 mile from the Dayton Mall. The road has sidewalks and a bicycle lane. The speed limit around the area is 45 mph and the nearest light with a crosswalk is 1/4 mile from the transit center.
Dayton is still one of the most segregated cities in the United States.
An Ohio cop is being charged for public intoxication, inducing panic, reckless endangerment and felonious assault. Shauna Lambert works for the Cincinnati Police. The police department is facing a DOJ investigation.
Reminder: The Blue Wall of Silence is no different than the No Snitching philosophy. The dirty cops make it more dangerous for the good cops.
Expect more of this stuff happening in Fuhrer Donald J. Trump's America.
Cincinnati Police are placing one of their own in the freezer after she was accused of leaving her firearm inside a movie theater. On top of that, she was intoxicated. The cop beat an OVI charge last April.
Milford Police and the Clermont County boys arrested District 2 officer Shauna Lambert after she left her service weapon inside Rave Movie Theaters on Friday. She was off-duty when this all happened.
Cellphone footage of the arrest was done by a viral seeker.
Moviegoers were watching the Rouge One: A Star Wars Movie.
Someone panicked when the burner was found on the floor.
Lambert was lying across the seats and witness said that she was acting a tad bit odd and not normal of a moviegoer.
Not a good night for a Cincinnati officer.
Lambert has a history with the booze. She was busted in Blue Ash for being on OVI. The "Blue Wall of Silence" gave her a lesser charge. She plead guilty to having a reckless operation.
The Cincinnati and Milford Police have no comment on the matter other than she will face a disciplinary hearing. The possibility of being fired out the cannon is LIKELY.
On top of that, she will banned from Rave Movie Theaters for LIFE.
And she will have a court date in Clermont County.
The corrupt cop is innocent until proven guilty in a court of law.
Back in 2015, a teen was body slammed to the ground after a pool party got out of hand in McKinney, Texas. Now a federal lawsuit is thrust upon the city and the officer who was filmed slamming her to the ground.
When the cops came, they weren't handling the situation properly. Eric Casebolt, the officer who was filmed barrel rolling, pointing his gun at some of the teens and arresting Dajerria Becton was the guy who set off a week of national outrage.
In a complaint filed in December, Becton and her legal guardian, Shashona Becton, allege that Casebolt violated her constitutional rights by using excessive force and holding her without probable cause. The family also claims that the city and the police department are to blame for her injuries.
The federal lawsuit seeks $5 million in damages. She was 15 when this all happened. She was crying face down in the grass while Casebolt pinned her with his hands and knees.
Casebolt didn't get charged for the act. Casebolt claimed that he was stressed after helping save a Black man from committing suicide. This was a deflection tactic to say "I'm not racist."
The video which was filmed set off weeks of discussion of how the police are treating minorities.
The people who called the law were outed by social media. Tracey Carver-Allbritton and Sean Toon were the people who instigated the fight by saying racial slurs at the teens. The website RacistsGetFired got them and Casebolt fired out the cannon.
Casebolt is allegedly working for the Maricopa County sheriff's department.
Val Demings, Congresswoman-elect from Florida. The former Orlando Police Chief will be a shield from the relentless attacks from Black coon cop David Clarke.
The Democrats have a badge. As of January 3rd, Val Demings will take her position as U.S. Representative from the great state of Florida. She is African American. She serves the Republican strong 10th Congressional district. The district was once held by insurgent Rep. Daniel Webster (R-FL). She lost against Webster in a 2014. Webster retired from Congress this term leaving the seat up for grabs.
Before she was a Representative-elect. Demings was the police chief of Orlando, Florida.
She the daughter of a maid and janitor, Demings knows how the toughest route to success.
According to Ballotpedia, Demings is devoting her term as a lawmaker to making laws that are designed to creating and retaining good paying jobs. She vows to protect Medicare and Social Security.
Demings being a former police chief should resonate with the ongoing issues with gun violence and the police shootings of unarmed suspects. Hopefully she supports police reform.
Democrats hate this guy. David Clarke, Jr., the Milwaukee County sheriff is constantly elected as a Democrat but talks like a racist Republican.
She could defend or attack Black Lives Matter. I don't have no peg on her yet.
But certainly she could serve as the counter balance to another African American lawman who spits nothing but racially charged bullshit.
That coon David Clarke, Jr. is a pain in the ass. The controversial Milwaukee County sheriff is gleeful that his master won the election. The fuhrer Donald J. Trump and vice fuhrer Mike Pence are preparing for transition. They will rollback progress and cause such chaos when they take over.
For you see, I don't want Trump and Pence to succeed. I want them to fail. I want them to fail miserably and want the world to suffer because of them.
Hopefully I will hear more of Val Demings in the coming future.
This is New York Police Department's finest using our taxpayer dollars to mock a family being handcuffed.
The power of social media has a New York Police Department officer in the freezer. I guess it must have been really funny using Snapchat to take a picture of a woman and her family under arrest.
This knucklehead wasn't named in the junk food media, but the person who was arrested was.
Kimberly Santiago was embarrassed to see herself along with her family handcuffed in her living room and it was shared on social media.
The Brownsville, Brooklyn woman claimed the NYPD broke into her mother's third floor apartment during a "NO KNOCK". The NYPD forced her and six other family members out of bed while pointing guns at them.
She said the reason they were given by police for the lockdown was "so no one will go crazy or act up," while they were searching the place.
Santiago and her family were handcuffed for three hours, while an officer who was watching them decided to take a picture and post it through social media. Santiago's friend saw the pictures and contacted her immediately.
One of the postings said "Merry Christmas it's NYPD!!" and the other "Warrant Sweeps it's still a party smh."
According to the warrant, they were looking for a suspect named JD Blue. The apartment was the last known location or the place where his mail was sent. The officers were searching for him and decided to rouse all those who were inside the apartment. The person was allegedly having tattoos on both arms and a mole on his face.
Santiago said none of the family knew the man. They were shaken by the event. "My mom almost got a heart attack," she said. "I told them 'leave me in handcuffs but take my mother's off please.'"
The officers at least had a heart. Her father passed away and was cremated. She begged the law not to search the ashes. They obligated to that request.
Once the photo was sent to her phone, she made a formal complaint and said that officers took or damaged property in this "NO KNOCK".
Santiago is now fearful that the same event could occur again.
NYPD arrest a woman who is topless .
"Every time here's a knock on the door we're nervous, it messed us up," she said. "How did my mom's apartment become a situation they had to raid? Did they have any proof or cause to lead to all of this? I need answers, they got to do more than suspending?"
Placing my bets on that racist dick Patrick Lynch of the NYPD Union to defend this scum. I bet you money that an internal review will just net him less than 45 days off the beat and loss of pay. But after a few weeks of retraining, he'll be ready to buck an unarmed homeowner.
NO KNOCK WARRANTS are controversial. The judge issues a late warrant for law enforcement to engage on an individual or a property. This allows law enforcement to enter a property without notification. It is under the belief that the law could expect the individual could destroy evidence or be packing heat.
Some people are mistaken for the suspect and it could be deadly for the homeowner or the law.
Oftentimes its considered lawful and constitutional by a federal judge to issue these warrants.
It is truly a controversial issue that will merit a Supreme Court challenge. It goes against the Fourth, Fifth and Eight Amendment.
But if you're a Black, Hispanic or Muslim homeowner, the Constitution doesn't matter to the law or the concern trolls who automatically assume guilt before innocence.
A mother from Texas was arrested after she smarted off an officer. The officer was called on a report a man put his hands on her child and she wanted to press charges.
Thankfully nobody was killed in this incident.
I wonder if the next mass shooting of law enforcement will be the fault of this officer and not Black Lives Matter.
Because 40 miles east, the Dallas Metro Police were ambushed by this terrorist. This terrorist murdered five officers. Later that year, Baton Rouge was the scene of a mass shooting. Three officers were murdered.
Expect more police incidents with people of color. Expect more good police officers being killed because of the bad officers.
Expect Black Lives Matter to be a player in the fuhrer's term. Will it go away? Maybe. But given the power of cameras and public shaming, this group will be around. The White extremist movement they labeled the alt-right and all the players of the conservative junk food media will denounce this group.
They will call BLM it a "terrorist organization" and the "murderers of cops".
Is it time to call conservatives, the enablers of "genocide" and the enablers of "corruption?"
I place the blame of this incident on Fuhrer Donald J. Trump, Mike Pence, Greg Abbott, John Cornyn and Ted Cruz. They refuse to support police reform and advocate for the genocide of Americans through gun violence. They defend the actions of corrupt police officers and agencies. They would endorse the notion that a person's minor criminal history is deservence of death. So I expect that one of Fuhrer Trump's minions underneath the bandwidth will make note of the criminal history of the victim.
An incident where a Fort Worth mother called the law on a neighbor after he put his hands on a child became an altercation between her and the officer. The officer would arrest her and two of her daughters. The daughter while recording the officer was arrested. She would bond out of county lockup and post this video and demand for the officer to fired out the cannon. She would also demand the man who put his hands on the child be arrested.
Jacqueline Craig, can be heard telling an officer that she called the law on a neighbor who assaulted her son.
Craig tells the officer the man who accused her son of littering was choked. The man choked the boy after he ignored him. As the officer and Craig talk, things got escalated when he decided "lecture" the mother about how to raise her child. That eventually led to the arrest of Craig, Brea Hymond and the person filming Porsha Carver.
According to the junk food media, the women are still in county lockup pending charges. The man who put his hands on the boy wasn't arrested.
The officer was named by last name in the video. The Forth Worth Police hasn't released his name to the junk food media. But it's noted his name is Martin. So it won't take long before the name and social media of the officer be put in the junk food media.
They'll defend his actions for the most part. It will take the comments he addressed to the woman to undo him. It will be the officer ignoring a serious crime that will undo him. He had no business speaking an opinion to a victim. He should have taken all the information from the woman about the man who put his hands on that boy.
He should not have arrested her because she "smarted off" to him. He should have taken his parenting skills to his own children. I thought police officers were not your parents. He is a public servant and he can be filmed by civilians. Photography is not a crime. Cussing at an officer is not a crime.
I want to know the name of the guy who put his hands on that little boy!
That officer needs to be fired out the cannon. His actions were out of line and conservatives are going to defend this scum.
I know you want to vent off about this issue. No comments here. The only opinion that matters to me is mine and S. Baldwin. But if you feel that it's not right, let your voice be heard. After all, I want to know what the opposition is thinking. I want to know how to take on such stubbornness and such vile individuals who don't value the lives of all humans.
Starting Friday, I will leave a post for you to "shout out". Any posting I made will have no comments made on it. I will make a page specifically for comments. Please leave a name and a message. Offensive or not I will read it. I will address it.
Anonymous comments will be deleted. There's no trolling here. So if you want to drop a comment without leaving a name, it's deleted.
Here's a bonus feature. One of the officers on Fort Worth's victim and crimes unit was fired out the cannon after botching up a child rape case. A 15 year old girl was raped and the former detective Dennis Hutchins in July 2016 mishandled multiple child abuse cases.
Maybe Martin might join Hutchins in the unemployment line.
Murder suspect Geronimo Yanez faces trial. He is trying to have it dismissed on grounds the victim was high. Yanez was a cop for the St. Anthony Police He fatally shot Philando Castile after a traffic stop.
So I guess being on THC, having a busted taillight and looking like the guy who robbed a convenience store because of a "wide set nose" is grounds for death.
The Minnesota cop who murdered Philando Castile is trying to have the case dismissed on the grounds of the victim being "stoned". Geronimo Yanez and his attorneys are trying to blame the victim for his own death. The St. Anthony Police officer and his union believe that this is politically motivated through outcry from the public and Black Lives Matter.
Castile was pulled over for busted taillight. According to Yanez it was the victim who didn't follow a police order and prompt the fatal encounter.
Corrupt cop trying to place blame on the victim.
The traffic stop happened in Falcon Heights, which the St. Anthony Police aids for. His girlfriend livestreamed the aftermath of the fatal encounter.
Even with video of Philando's girlfirend Diamond Reynolds saying that Yanez shot him for no reason, the grand jury may allow this corrupt cop off.
In a statement, attorneys for Castile's mother said, "This is the designed play for the defense of police officers who kill citizens, always blame the victim," and "They want to say and have you believe that Philando was the negligent one and somehow that matters in excusing or defending the officer. It does not."
The deaths of unarmed Black men has been a big issue. The corrupt cops get off with justifiable murder.
The city of Belding is looking for a new firefighter.
Now in the fuhrer's America, a White firefighter can get into an ALL CAPS rage over Black Lives Matter and NFL's Colin Kaepernick taking a knee during the national anthem. Now he learns that he's out of a job and the junk food media will take out the trash.
Someone had to put this dumpster fire named Ryan Hudson out. He was fired out the cannon after he posted racist comments on social media. He is a former U.S. Marine turned firefighter for the city of Belding, Michigan.
Belding is 30 miles from Grand Rapids.
He got into a heated conversation with a black woman named Tarvenia. She is from California and she was none too happy to read the word vomit from this dumbass.
The New York Daily News report that a posting about Donald J. Trump going after Sen. John McCain (R-AZ) prompt Tarvenia to comment that her brother was also a veteran and her support for San Francisco 49ers' Kaepernick when he kneeled during the anthem to protest police brutality.
"Your brother can pack up and leave this country. I don't care if he is a vet or not. I am a vet and what [Kaepernick] is try to represent is wrong," said Hudson.
California woman let Belding know that a member of the team has racial hatred towards Blacks.
Tarvenia said, why should my brother leave the country. What set this asshole off was a mention of Black Lives Matter, the group who protests against racial injustice.
"Fuck Black Lives Matter. You are the epitome of a NIGGER. All lives matter. And if you think it's just Black lives, kiss my ass bitch and go back to the fields that use in the north fought to free you from," said Hudson.
When she posted that on HelloRacist, it went viral. Now Belding's fire chief Greg Moore had to place Hudson in the water cannon and fire his ass across the street.
Troll picked a fight with the wrong woman.
"Yes we do have free speech in this country, but free speech does not mean you're safe from the consequences of your free speech and your decisions," the woman told WXMI-TV. "We don't just get to spout off at the mouth and spew hatred and ignorance."
Hudson claimed he was drunk at the time. Yeah, right. I bet you money he trolled the social media to drop the NIGGER word around Black commentators.
His non-sincere apology.
"It's very out of character for me," said Hudson. "I'm truly sorry from the bottom of my heart because it doesn't reflect everybody."
He's sorry only for the fact he got caught.
Hudson didn't check out those websites called HelloRacist.com and racistgetfired.tumblr.com .
I blame fuhrer in waiting Donald J. Trump, Mike Pence and Rick Snyder for the actions of this asshole and those who troll social media. These people in the public sector are showing their true colors when it comes to the lives of all Americans.
Iowa man was paralyzed by a cop's bullet after a minor traffic violation. Jerime Mitchell and his wife Bracken (right).
When the controversial billionaire/racist/sexist/pussy grabbing/immature reality television star become your next fuhrer, I bet you money his squinty eyed Attorney General if confirm will not pursue charges against corrupt police officers.
Having a burnt taillight and a pound of weed might end up being a death sentence for a Black man.
Yeah, fleeing an officer was pretty stupid but to use deadly force instead of backing away from a fleeing vehicle is bad training in my opinion, I would not try to stop a vehicle fleeing the scene.
Cedar Rapids Police and Linn County Sheriff are doing an investigation into the shooting of Jerime Mitchell. The Iowa State Police and U.S. Justice Department are also determining if the officer used justifiable force. He was an unarmed motorist.
A routine pull over because of a license plate light led to a Black man being shot three times. He is paralyzed from the waist down. Now his family and the NAACP are demanding answers to why a simple stop could lead to this.
According to Officer Lucas Jones, Jerime struggled with him and his Belgian mulatte partner. Jones and the police dog were on him. Jones activated his door latch to release his police dog. But Jerime managed to slip through and got into his pickup truck.
Cedar Rapids Police are doing damage control after a routine stop turned into a near fatal shooting.
Jones would reach for his service weapon and start popping off while Jerime was driving.
Jerime who is a 37-year old father was being searched for possession of marijuana. Jones was "trying to search" the vehicle with Jerime saying forcible no to the search. Jones claimed that Jerime was the instigator.
Jerime disputes the account, he said that Jones was the aggressor. His supporters and civil rights activists have blasted the prosecutor for the ending the secret grand jury inquiry without obtaining any statement or testimony from him, who is now hospitalized with a bullet lodged in his neck.
The pull over was around 1:17 am. Investigators says Jones initiated the stop because the light bulbs that illuminate the license plate on Jerime's truck were burned out. A minor infraction.
This issue has touched a nerve to the lives of Black men.
Once again, Jones's testimony was more important than the victim's. The grand jury decided to not indict the officer. They also decided to not indict Jerime for the charges of marijuana possession and fleeing and eluding an arresting officer.
The city of Augusta gave Dun Deal a bigger studio to produce his hits.
Make America Great Again!
Not so for great for rap producer Dun Deal and the city of Augusta, Georgia. He was detained by the state boys for a crime he didn't commit. The city loses money that could repair the roads, bridges and fund city workers. It seems like they'll have to do some retraining on them police officers involved.
Matter of fact, it might cost Augusta police recruits.
Dun Deal, born David Cunningham doesn't live in Augusta. But he's now a resident after he was awarded $300,000 in a settlement by the consolidated city county of Augusta/Richmond County. The feds and Richmond County Sheriff's office swore out a false warrant against the producer. They claimed his fingerprints were on a getaway vehicle involved in a geeking of an Augusta Costco back in 2014.
Dun Deal had no connection to the crime, despite a witness allegedly identifying him from his artist page on social media. The geekers were involved in stealing nearly $100,000 in jewelry from a display case.
In addition to the settlement, the Sheriff's office formally apologized to the rap producer and placed those involved in the freezer pending an investigation.
Geeker fingered Dun Deal in a jewelry heist he didn't commit.
When he was on social media he accepted a friend request from a fan. That fan was an alleged ringleader in the group. The alleged geeker Ronnica Westmoreland rented a vehicle. She let her fellow geekers bolt off with the loot.
Instead of reading the woman her rights, the law let her sung like a canary and she fingered Dun Deal. She should have clammed up and got an attorney before speaking to the law.
"She said, 'I loaded it to a guy named David.' David is a pretty common name so they went to her Facebook page, found everyone named David. They found a Black man who wears a lot of jewelry. So they jumped to the conclusion, that must be him," said James Radford, the rap producer's attorney.
"The picture that they showed me of me was with Birdman. They asked me who that was. He was wearing a lot of diamonds and they slid me the picture, and they asked, 'Who's this? I'm like, that's Birdman!" said Dun Deal.
In the warrant, police said Dun Deal looked like one of the men in this security video. They even said they had his fingerprints, which turned out to be a total lie because he has no criminal history.
While in Dallas, the FBI and U.S. Marshals intercepted Dun Deal. Undercovers arrested him while he was with his family. They went to his studio in Atlanta and swarmed the place during a 6AM Knock-Knock. That's a controversial no knock warrant. It's a tactic that prevents alleged criminals from hiding evidence or obtaining firearms while being detained.
"They threw tear gas over the gate, put guns in people's faces," said Dun Deal.
He spent 10 days in the county lockup and wasn't given a reason why.
The suspects were detained and pled guilty to the criminal geek. Dean Summers, Nikevion Curtis, Brian Bickman and Demetrius Pennamon were given nickels in the iron college. Westmoreland was charged for making false statements to federal officers. She is innocent until proven guilty in a court of law.
Dun Deal hasn't talked much since the incident. Matter of fact he is now extremely cautious on social media. He hasn't accepted the friend request from people on Facebook. So I rather follow and see his developments. I am not trying to get him in anymore trouble.
"If he was someone else, someone else without family, without means without a father who understood the process, that 10 days could have turned to 50. It could have turned to 100. That's how people get sucked into the system," said Dun Deal's second attorney Caleb Gross.
Dun Deal produced tracks for The Migos, Gucci Mane, Young Thug, Future, Young Dolph, Blac Youngsta, Juicy J, Rich Homie Quan, Kevin Gates and others.
Known hits produced by Dun Deal are The Migos' single "Hannah Montana."
Here's the single Still Beating from Gucci Mane featuring Peewee Longway and Young Dolph.
The controversial billionaire/racist/sexist/pussy grabbing/immature fuhrer in waiting Donald J. Trump is building his cabinet full of well-established billionaires and lawmakers. He may put that controversial Black coon cop David Clarke as his Homeland Security secretary. He already put that pro-Confederate squinty eyed bigot Sen. Jeff Sessions (R-AL) as the Attorney General.
See in Donald Trump's America, a rap producer is automatically a criminal.
New York Fire Department firefighter burns his property and tried to pin it on #BlackLivesMatter
The New York Fire Department is putting the fire out on a member. Jason Stokes, a member of the FDNY is off the force after he set his own house on fire and tried to blame #BlackLivesMatter for the act.
Stokes pleaded not guilty to the arson in connection to the August fire in Endicott, New York.
Family members said at the time that they believed their home was targeted because they support #BlueLivesMatter and that controversial billionaire racist/sexist/pussy grabbing/immature fuhrer in waiting Donald J. Trump.
Of course, the wrote on their home "lie with pigs, fry like bacon". It's kind reminds me of the endless loops of protesters chanting "Pigs in a blanket, fry 'em like bacon". It was constantly looped on that ridiculously ass kissing annoying conservative agitator Sean "Softball" Hannity's show.
The incident happened in August 2015.
Racist firefighter in an attempt to blame Black Lives Matter tried to bobby trap firefighters.
At the time, Stokes and his allies claimed that Black Lives Matters were a terrorist group and they advocated hate against White people.
Prosecutors now believe Stokes deliberately burnt his home down and tried to pin the blame on the civil rights group.
"We don't need to show a motive, we need to show intent," said Steve Cornwell of Broome County prosecutor's office.
Stokes tried to boobytrap the home by leaving barriers around the properties. His family escaped and he claimed that the vandals targeted him for being a supporter cops and Trump.
He's being held on a $10,000 get out of jail card. He is innocent until proven guilty in a court of law.
In the court of public opinion, he's another reason to why Donald J. Trump is a cancer to the United States. Now as the first Fuhrer of the United States, Trump will spit and shit on the U.S. Constitution.
His allies like that annoying conservative agitator Sean "Softball" Hannity will waste no time trying to defend his unconstitutional proposals and reckless decisions.
People like this Stokes guy will be a reason for why Black America must be on high alert. These White extremists are plotting for the mass genocide of Blacks, Hispanics, Muslims, LGBT, progressive Americans, immigrants, and those who support these group.
Republican governor Pat McCrory has conceded. The inept governor of North Carolina was defeated in the recount. It marks an unique feat. The Republican governor doesn't cruise along with the fuhrer in waiting Donald J. Trump and Sen. Richard Burr (R-NC).
His defeat to Roy Cooper was a nailbiter. McCrory's legacy will be tarnished by the Bathroom Law that he supported. The bathroom law led to a boycott of the state.
The Republican incumbent had filed for a statewide recount last month, but lost virtually all hope of eking out a reelection victory when Cooper's lead had surpassed 10,000 votes last week -- and the threshold whereby state law allows McCrory to ask for a recount. As of Monday, Cooper was up by 10,563 votes, according to the North Carolina Board of Elections.
The concession marks the end of a drawn-out process that saw McCrory's campaign and supporters raise multiple questions about the legitimacy of the election results -- accusations his critics saw as an attempt to undermine the will of the voters.
McCrory filed complaints in about half of the state's 100 counties but no evidence of widespread voter fraud ever came to light. All of those complaints were rejected by McCrory's own Republican appointees serving on local county election boards.
Last week, the State Board of Elections -- also Republican-controlled -- ordered a recount in Durham due to a delay in the county's returns being added to the statewide tally. According to the Raleigh News & Observer, the delay came because election workers entered information from ballot tabulators' paper tapes after they were unable to read data from six memory cards that also came from the tabulators.
North Carolina Gov. Pat McCrory conceded the close gubernatorial race on Monday to his Democratic challenger, Roy Cooper, concluding one of the last outstanding contests of the 2016 election nearly a month after voters cast their ballots.
The Republican incumbent had filed for a statewide recount last month, but lost virtually all hope of eking out a reelection victory when Cooper's lead had surpassed 10,000 votes last week -- and the threshold whereby state law allows McCrory to ask for a recount. As of Monday, Cooper was up by 10,563 votes, according to the North Carolina Board of Elections.
In a YouTube video released Monday, McCrory said it was "time to celebrate our Democratic process" and respect "the ultimate outcome of the closest North Carolina race in modern history."
"Despite continued questions that should be answered regarding the voting process, I personally believe that the majority of our citizens have spoken, and we now should do everything we can to support the 75th governor of North Carolina, Roy Cooper," McCrory said.
Cooper released a statement in response, thanking McCrory for his service to the state and noting, "while this was a divisive election season, I know still that there is more that unites us than divides us."
The concession marks the end of a drawn-out process that saw McCrory's campaign and supporters raise multiple questions about the legitimacy of the election results -- accusations his critics saw as an attempt to undermine the will of the voters.

According to the Raleigh News & Observer, the delay came because election workers entered information from ballot tabulators' paper tapes after they were unable to read data from six memory cards that also came from the tabulators.
Experts on the equipment told Durham officials that the paper tapes were reliable, and several political watchers believed the results would be unchanged after a county recount. Durham is one of the strongest Democratic counties in the state, and Cooper won it by a wide margin of 79 percent to 20 percent.
Having signed a spate of unpopular legislation that restricted voting, reproductive and LGBTQ rights, McCrory was greeted with a number of cheers following his decision to accept defeat on Monday.
"Pat McCrory's reign of discrimination is finally over," said the Human Rights Campaign president Chad Griffin in a statement. The HRC had aggressively campaigned against House Bill 2, a measure McCrory signed that blocked transgender people from using government building bathrooms in accordance with their gender identities.
HB2 sparked a national backlash, with numerous boycotts from businesses, musicians and sports organizations. In one of the biggest repercussions for a state where college sports is almost a religion, the NCAA and ACC earlier this year relocated several championship games out of North Carolina over the discriminatory legislation.
"McCrory's stubborn and reckless support of HB2 cost him this election, and his defeat sends a powerful warning to lawmakers across the country that targeting LGBTQ people will not be tolerated," added Griffin. "We look forward to working with Governor-elect Roy Cooper and fair-minded lawmakers to repeal HB2. It's way past time to repair the harm inflicted on North Carolina's people, reputation and economy."
