Los Angeles, CA —I’ve never been fond of the FAA or the TSA because of the inept and horrifically wasteful way they deal with airline security. The searching of passengers without probable cause or a search warrant is a direct violation of the Fourth Amendment to our Constitution. The system they put in place is un-American but accepted by the sheep, but that does not make it right. The TSA was nothing more than a jobs program that was established through the exploitation of fear in America. The TSA has been ineffective, intrusive, rude, unnecessary, expensive and illegal. That being said today I wanted to capture some footage of the TSA in action for this blog and did so without incident. After I got the video I wanted, I left the terminal and saw LAX police making a routine arrest. I started taping and then a large Black woman wearing a TSA worker’s uniform began to order me around and when I rebuffed her commands she began shoving me with her hands and aggressively pursuing me. ...

Chicago, IL —This would not be an issue but for the miserable and unconstitutional gun laws of Illinois. Carrying a gun while not authorized by law in Illinois is a felony. The law-abiding folks can’t carry because they risk everything important like their job, reputation and citizenship. Dangerous felons on the other hand have nothing to lose. We ask our cops to go out and investigate crimes and arrest the offenders. That is indeed risky business. However the risk does not end with the arrest. Sometimes the cop is the only witness that can prove a crime and if he or she is murdered that old case evaporates and the offender must go free. Sometimes a cop is recognized on a public street and swift retaliation for making the arrest happens. These ugly things can result months and even years after an arrest. When an officer is off on disability either temporary or permanent the right to carry a concealed weapon ends. Perhaps the officer has an injured leg or back and running or even w...

Honolulu, HI —Conservative radio talk show Guru Rush Limbaugh was taken by paramedics from the Kahala Hotel and Resort to The Queen's Medical Center in serious condition. Limbaugh was set to celebrate his 60th birthday on January 12 is said to be fighting for his life over heart attack symptoms. The Hospital: The Queen's Medical Center, located in downtown Honolulu, Hawaii, is a private, non-profit, acute medical care facility. It is the largest private hospital in Hawaii, licensed to operate with 505 acute care beds and 28 sub-acute beds. The medical center has more than 3,000 employees and over 1,200 physicians on staff. As the leading medical referral center in the Pacific Basin, Queen's offers a comprehensive range of primary and specialized care services. Queen's is accredited by the Joint Commission on Accreditation of Healthcare Organizations (JCAHO) and affiliated with VHA Inc., the national health care alliance. The medical center is also approved to partic...

Yep! TSA goons that can’t follow up leads to stop real pantybombers have no difficulty going after bloggers like me that are critical of their unworkable mess. The TSA losers hate to deal with informed passengers that can refuse to get pushed around because they know the rules. Subpoenas have been issued and served seeking to learn who leaked the following: U.S. DEPARTMENT OF HOMELAND SECURITY Transportation Security Administration Aviation Security Directive Subject: Security Directive Number: SD 1544-09-06 Date: December 25, 2009 EXPIRATION: 0200Z on December 30, 2009 This Security Directive (SD) must be implemented immediately. The measures contained in this SD are in addition to all other SDs currently in effect for your operations. INFORMATION: On December 25, 2009, a terrorist attack was attempted against a flight traveling to the United States. TSA has identified security measures to be implemented by airports, aircraft operators, and foreign air carriers to mitigate potentia...

Washington, D.C .—With the current discussion of those horrifically expensive and intrusive full body scanners for airline travelers Fox News is doing a survey. The results so far indicate airlines will lose much more business yet. Can our mortally wounded economy take yet another massive hit? Would you be willing to undergo an airport "full body scan"? Yes 71% 146252 No 29% 60717 Total votes: 206969 You need to examine this 2008 report about Americans and their response to the TSA and their security screening: According to the Travel Industry Association , 41 million airplane trips were avoided last year by fellow Americans. That in turn dealt a $67 Billion cumulative cost to our economy. A landmark survey revealed shocking information that points directly at the TSA and the misery they pile on to travelers with mindless security screening games and indignities that do nothing more that provide an illusion of security. Flying today is a truly miserable experience. Air...

Imagine that you’ve been given an assignment. Bring 1 ½ pounds of simulated C-4 plastic explosive, blasting cap and a battery onto an Airplane. You will be rewarded by the government with $10,000.00 every time you can do this without getting caught. For those who don’t know C-4 pictured above is merely a chemical compound that could be manufactured by anyone with a basic knowledge of chemistry. It you’re smart enough to make the illicit street drug meth, you’re also smart enough to make C-4 explosive. I’d like that job because I know I could successfully pull that feat off once or twice per day, always avoiding detection. I’d also want to make sure that the materials are inert so there’s no danger should the materials somehow fall into the wrong hands. If a reasonably smart person researched this they too could easily defeat the TSA and commit mass murder in the process. We are in fact at the mercy of those who would do us harm. If someone wanted to place the C-4 on an airplane wit...

Phoenix, AZ —Accused in the abduction and molestation last week of a five year-old girl, Larry Jon Ladwig is ordered held without bail. He was appointed a public defender. This courtroom is located in the basement of the Madison Street Jail. It is very rare to see even one jail guard next to a defendant in this video there are two.

Washington, D.C .— That quote is a favorite of a long time Sacramento news anchor and my friend, Dale Schornack . This is always the first statement made by government propagandists after a dangerous or threatening event. The modern day media genius that all government press spokesmen emulate is not that famous American news anchor, Walter Cronkite , but the legendary Nazi propaganda minister, Josef Goebbels . Of course our own government bureaucrats always follow the Goebbels formula when their own performance is on the ropes. Homeland Security Secretary, Janet Napolitano also learned from the Goebbels’ model when she faced the media over the bombing attempt on the Amsterdam to Detroit flight last week. Napolitano proclaimed that, “The system worked.” She of course dared to suggest that the public was never in any danger. Today we know a heroic Dutch passenger, not a government agent saved the lives of countless people both in the plane and on the ground. In this case the governmen...

It was indeed long ago that Christian soldiers were sent to cleanse the earth of Muslims. It cost untold lives on both sides of every battle. Now radical Muslims are at war with the United States and Western Europe. Their attack that September 11th day is not out of our minds or hearts. We have moved on but we keep getting brought back by recent terror attacks. Fort Hood and now that Detroit bound full airliner have become fresh reminders. Islam has left deep wounds in America. Many Americans have grown to hate Muslims over their terrorist acts. Muslims may find themselves on the endangered species list if they continue. There is serious Muslim problem and it better cease before numerous nations band together for a FINAL SOLUTION TO THE MUSLIM PROBLEM.

Washington, DC —With airlines having lost millions of passengers that refuse to waive their personal privacy and freedom the few remaining passengers can expect more aggravation. From the Whitehouse, Homeland Security down to the losers employed in the TSA jobs program , making passengers more miserable is the order. No longer will passengers be able to have objects in their laps or enjoy in-flight entertainment for the last hour of their flights. Need to use the lavatory? Better put diapers on your next shopping list. This is all because government officials would not heed the warning of a father who warned them about this radical Muslim son. The airlines are barely able to stay in the air now with the cost of fuel, taxes and the cost of running their operations. We can count on millions more passengers avoiding the encounters with those low wattage, uneducated or trained TSA workers. Our TSA bureaucrats want to prove to us they are concerned about our safety so their little storm tr...

Just who are the first responders? If you think it’s those guys in the picture your dead wrong! They simply come and clean up the mess. They are, except in rare circumstances, glorified garbage men and nothing more. Acts of violent crime or terrorism can be stopped cold. Not by government since there is never a cop when or where you need one. The first responders at every unthinkable event are everyday citizens. When the authorities are not there the citizen becomes the authority by default. What duties do we have? As humans we all have a duty despite handwringing cries from those who won’t face up to their responsibilities. Evading that responsibility is both contagious and dangerous. Resistance to violence has been redundantly proven to saves lives. Of course age, ability and training is no small part of this equation. Our creator gave us three gifts. The first one was fear and the second is the instinct for survival. The third is the ability to make tools such as firearms and...

Detroit, MI— Northwest Flight 253 Passengers did what the government could not. They protected themselves from a deadly attack by a Muslim suicide bomber. The father of the human bomb, identified as Umar Farouk Abdulmutallab , 23, a Nigerian national warned US and Dutch officials of the danger his son posed because if his radical actions and beliefs. Obviously that was no help at all. When there is no law enforcement present during an emergency we need to take the law into our own hands and survive. Had this not happened nearly 300 innocent people and a multi-million dollar aircraft would have been destroyed. The TSA searching and aggravating passengers is only effective in creating more inventive ways of getting bombs and weapons on airplanes. If they can’t keep weapons out of maximum security prisons, how can they possibly keep them off airplanes? A determined terrorist will hijack or blow up planes until he’s stopped by alert and capable citizens. Of course the law-abiding citizen...

Las Vegas, NV —The largest exhibition of guns and gun related items in the world will be held January 19-22, 2010 at the Sands Convention center . This show is only open to people in the trade and media. So don’t go there unless you have applied for registration and received the show badge to attend. There is a law enforcement/military section that has the latest and greatest small arms ordinance. Also present are the makers of, knives, hunting supplies, camping gear, off road vehicles, and fishing equipment. It is common to see celebrities who are invited special guests and every well-know gun magazine or book author. No, you can’t buy a gun here but, you can arrange to have whatever you want shipped to your local gun dealer and purchase it there. Visit the SHOT Show Website for more information.

Detroit, MI —Once again a Muslim tried to murder innocent men, women and children. Blowing up a full airliner as it descends on a large populated city would surly kill many more as the wreckage hits the ground. Thankfully this action was halted by plane passengers who took the law into their own hands. How do we protect ourselves and families from this kind of menace? Prophylactic justifiable homicide is the only answer. Can you kill someone that is a threat to you or another person if they have only used hateful words? Our laws do provide for the defense of necessity. Although if you’re caught, you may stand trial and risk a jury substituting their judgment for yours as they find you guilty. We are at war and the rules change during war to survival. Americans must begin to stalk and kill religious leaders and members of their flock when they preach or display hate. Waiting for these criminals to commit their deadly sneak attacks before taking action is risky. I’m not talking about ta...

Phoenix, AZ —Things are looking grim as Phoenix police frantically search for five year-old, Natalie Rose Flores who police say was taken from the Saddleback Mountain Apartments in the 12400 block of N. 19th Avenue this afternoon. The child was playing with other children when the suspect described as a 30 to 40 year-old white male with blond or gray hair, 5-feet-8- to 5-feet-9-inches tall, 180-190 pounds, wearing a gray shirt and peach knee-length shorts snatched the child. The suspect was seen driving a Ford Ranger Pick-up truck. Witnesses supplied two license plates 3HG774 and 3HG377 both plates however are not on file with DMV in Arizona. The plate is believed to be made up of similar numbers that witnesses did not get quite right. KTVK-TV (3-TV) is all over this breaking story and will be keeping us updated. Update!! PHOENIX – A 5-year-old girl was found safe over seven hours after being abducted from a Phoenix apartment complex, and police have a suspect in custody. A Phoenix ...

Detroit, MI -- a Delta Airlines flight approaching the Motor City from Amsterdam was the target of a Christmas al Qaeda, suicide bombing attack. Reportedly the bomber was on the infamous NO FLY list and was allowed to fly anyway. Passengers subdued the bomber as he was trying to detonate the device. The plane was greeted by law enforcement, fire and paramedic crews. A man believed to be the suspect was taken to a local hospital under guard for treatment of burns. This is another case where simple criminal profiling by police would have prevented an incident far more effectively than the silly frisking procedures employed by the world’s airports. I’m quite sure that the TSA will ramp up the punishment against our own travelers as a result of another attack by a Muslim whack-job. The airlines could really use millions more passengers refusing to fly in order to avoid the un-American indignities forced on them when they travel. When are we going to stop letting people on our planes...

Tempe, AZ —Underwear might not be a bad idea for women shopping at their local Target stores in this college town. It seems at least one man, Jason Cottis has a way with hand baskets and mirrors that got him arrested for the felony charge of, surreptitious viewing . I’m not suggesting that this activity isn’t creepy, but is this charge constitutionally valid? The women he apparently were viewing were not in a place where there was any expatiation of privacy. I have strongly suspected for many years that women and their clothing designers provided plunging necklines and short skirts, some even with splits or vents for the viewing pleasure of men. Should a man be arrested for looking? Police say Cottis a serial peeper having done this numerous times in the past but always disappeared before police could respond to the calls. I am convinced that Cottis confessed to his peeping ways because no security camera can determine exactly what his field of vision was or where his eyes were ...

Dear Visitors, We have had another year of fun and frustration that is part of living in our world. Some things went wrong and yet it was not all bad. I hope that 2010 sees our freedom, constitution and economy restored without another Civil War. Crimefile wishes all of our visitors a safe, happy, healthy and enjoyable holiday season and a Happy New year.

ABC News has suggested that Sig Arms has endangered the nation by revealing that the Air Marshall’s service pistol is now the P 250 Compact in .357 Sig . Their sensational claim is that the bad guys could somehow benefit from this information. All semi-automatic handguns operate in similar fashion and law enforcement stopped using revolvers long ago. There are no secrets about these semi-automatic firearms that have not changed much in nearly 100 years! This knowledge is nothing special and releasing it in no way places anyone in harm’s way. This will however cause silly people who don’t know better to wring their hands because the “experts” at ABC news did this story. As for the weapon and caliber chosen, I’d have rather picked the .45 ACP version but have no problem since the Air Marshall’s ranks include metrosexuals and women that might find the more powerful caliber intimidating. I can’t imagine why they chose the double action only option. That reduces the ability of user of ...

Click on Pictures to enlarge them! Berlin, Germany —I’ve been on a lot of major cities thought the world. Of course I compare all of them to Chicago where I was born and raised. I have my own list of great cities I could live in. Being a city boy I do prefer the fast pace of large cities. I love entertainment, nightlife, history and any place where the locals work to make their city a fun, safe, and inviting place to live. Most of all freedom and liberty must prevail. I’m an adrenalin junkie and would never survive in a job where every day is the same with little challenge. I guess that’s why I do the kind of work that I do. The challenges, excitement and competition are usually found in the world’s big cities. Yes the people of Berlin were fooled by a Socialist politician that promised Hope and Change during an economic crisis. That was during the age of radio where millions were mesmerized by the new media that had few choices. Any politician that could control microphone time was t...

Los Angeles, CA -- The California 2nd District Court of Appeal announced today it had denied the petition to dismiss the case against fugitive film Director Roman Polanski . Polanski will now have to litigate these matters in Los Angeles when and if he is extradited from Geneva, Switzerland. Polanski is currently fighting extradition while under home arrest in his Geneva Chalet. Here is their opinion: Polanski Appeal Denied

Berlin, Germany —When I was visiting Berlin last month the realization of Hitler’s escape seemed more logical and believable than that old suicide story. Adolph Hitler back then was 56 years-old and had access to untold wealth. He could easily have placed funds, gold and or diamonds in different places just in case of his forced exile. There can be little doubt that Hitler knew all about the allied forces exact movements and the inevitable fall of Berlin. Hitler’s self-preservation instincts and understandable desire to protect Eva Braun must have been a priority for him and those around him, who all swore an oath to their Fuhrer. I can’t possibly imagine that there were no plans for escape. Hitler reportedly married Eva and dictated his last will and testament. The news came to Hitler that crowds had beaten Italian dictator Benito Mussolini and his sixteen year-old mistress to death and hanged their bodies by the heels. The claim was that on April 30, 1945 as the Russians were a...

Los Angeles, CA —Former LAPD cop turned author, Joseph Wambaugh captured police work on paper like few other authors. Wambaugh’s work gave millions a realistic view inside the crime scene tape that shuts out prying eyes. Many of Wambaugh's works were made into feature films or episodes of his hit TV series, Police Story . When I met Wambugh a couple of years ago I asked him a question he could not answer. Where are the DVD’s of his best stories that made the large and small screens? These days almost anything is in print and available at Netflix. Absent are copies of my two favorite Wambaugh films, THE ONION FIELD and ECHOES IN THE DARKNESS . Also missing are any episodes of Police story. Some of the actors that rocked on Police Story included Tony LoBianco, Don Meredith, Vic Morrow, Chuck Connors, James Farentino, Jan-Michael Vincent, Danny Bonaducci, Ralph Meeker, Diane Baker and Hugh O’Brian . There has to be film and master tapes somewhere. It can’t be that difficult to...

When the word holocaust is used most Americans think only of the six million murdered under National Socialism by Adolph Hitler’s Third Reich . Yes, that was a monstrous event of extreme hatred and cruelty. At the same time Americans simply fail or refuse to recognize the hundreds of millions of people murdered under all the other Socialist flags. It was the Socialists and Communists in our own country and government that enabled and facilitated the Killing Fields of Pol Pot. The real war criminals were those Americans that wanted the Communists to control South Viet Nam. Stalin, Mao, Castro , and Pot , have led the way in mass murders. They were followed by so many other lesser publicized Socialist nations. Socialists know only one way to deal with dissent and those that want out of their utopia. That is to murder those who they can’t convince to accept this failure of a government plan. It’s apparently alright to simply not recognize the killing fields of Pol Pot, the endless ...

If you thought American school teachers were infusing our children with knowledge considering the amount of taxpayer’s money the government spends you are delusional. The teachers unions have sold us a bill of goods. Meet three people we allow to vote in America. I’m amazed these folks can even find polling places or the bathrooms of their own homes. These are stars of a popular reality TV show being quizzed on really basic things in our world. I’m beginning to believe in euthanasia. These people are too stupid to live. They’re beyond any help or even hope.

Berlin, Germany— I was delighted to be in Berlin for the 20th Anniversary of the collapse of the infamous Wall and Communism. Getting to the celebration involved taking the subway because of street closures and a lack of parking facilities. My dear friend Andrea was kind enough to show me around Berlin. Her brother Klaus is a history buff who met us later giving me the rundown on the historical sites. All the video I captured in Germany and Switzerland was on the Flip HD camera . Enjoy the highlights of the subway ride.

Phoenix, AZ— It was 21 years ago when an elderly man was robbed and murdered by a drug addicted neighbor. The case went cold and unsolvable. The killer fled to California, got clean, sober and employed. Kenneth Jackson joined the world of the hard working and taxpaying folks. He was finally living the American dream. I think every religion allows sinners salvation and redemption without surrendering to earthly authority. Jackson could not live with his deeds and more than two decades later he returned to Phoenix and gave a full confession of First Degree Murder to police. His shocking confession included unpublished facts and that has created a seemingly air-tight noose around Jackson’s neck. The minimum amount of time Jackson can get will be 25 years with no parole . That will be served in one of Arizona’s miserable prisons. Jackson deserves man’s punishment but under the circumstances taxpayers will now have to support and keep Jackson secure for perhaps more time than he has l...

Chicago, IL —This is one of those stories you just can’t make up. Cook County Circuit Court Judge Edward Jordan has ordered Christmas taken away from a three year-old girl! Despite our Constitution’s First Amendment Judge Jordan has stepped into a religious dispute between parents and ordered the Catholic father not to expose the child to any non-Jewish religious activities. The child’s mother Rebecca Reyes an apparent devout Jew, petitioned for and won the restraining order From Judge Jordan. That order in effect steals Christmas from her daughter. The dispute between Rebecca and Joseph Reyes is not really a trivial issue. Both parents are divided on their daughter’s religious education. Who should mediate this case? No American court has jurisdiction over religion. Is there an acceptable compromise when both the Jewish and Catholic religions claim their supremacy? Judge Jordan is playing the Part of Dr. Suess’ Grinch and the little Reyes girl is none other than Cindy Lou Wh...

Chicago, IL —In this city rich with draconian and unconstitutional gun laws the public is at more risk of deadly criminal attack and monetary loss than ever. The newly appointed Democratic governor, Pat Quinn has secretly opened the floodgates releasing career criminals back on the streets. The move is said to cut costs but all of our politicians know that experience says this move will end up costing hundreds of millions more when the criminals reoffend. It will cost lives as insurances companies are bankrupted paying out claims related to crime. Of course that will keep the courts, prosecutors and public defenders very busy. This will cause state and local government’s treasuries to hemorrhage. Of course by creating a crime crisis this government will take advantage and eliminate freedom in the same way the Nazis did when somebody set fire to the German Reichstag. That act ultimately gave Adolph Hitler absolute power and the legal authority to kill millions. Hitler never let ...

Mao Zedong made this famous quote in a 1938 publication. This was part of a larger statement that discussed public gun ownership as a hindrance to the world’s Communist Revolutions. One thing for sure Communist and Socialist governments all love to use their guns liberally on their own citizens. Everywhere there has ever been a Communist or Socialist flag waiving there’s been a holocaust. For some reason world history only seems to recognize the Nazi Holocaust and nearly ignores the hundreds of millions murdered in places like China, Cambodia, Cuba, Russia, East Germany, Romania and every Eastern European country. Communists uniformly slaughter civilians for political or trivial reasons. Socialism, National Socialism, and Communism all share the same concepts of wealth redistribution, the need for absolute power within the government and the violent elimination of those citizens that dare demand freedom. The Barack Obama Administration is rampant with proud Marxists. The other ad...

Chicago, IL —The brand new parking meter kiosks are everywhere now. They accept cash and credit cards. Your failure to feed these monsters will get you in a world of hurt. It’s pure and simple extortion. Chicago’s weather has not been agreeable with these machines. They have been freezing over. I have an idea! Perhaps we can help these devices with simple spray bottles. That will melt the ice for sure. Insert the nozzles into any and all openings and simply spray the ice away! I’m sure this will be helpful to the sensitive electronics inside! Do this for your city!

Phoenix, AZ —Are some judges, politicians, lawyers and vendors involved in criminal conspiracies to loot taxpayers? Maricopa County’s presiding judge, Barbara Rodriguez Mundell has refused to turn over e-mails and other records. She has taken the unheard of step by seeking and getting a temporary court order preventing a search warrant from being served on her home and judicial chambers. Two members of the County Board Mary Rose Wilcox and Don Stapley along with Judge Gary Donahue are under indictment. It looks like there are going to be more indictments on the way. Maricopa County Sheriff Joe Arpaio and County Prosecutor Andrew Thomas have pulled out all the stops in learning what’s been going on with the deal making and glad-handing surrounding the over-priced court project. It is inconceivable that in a state drowning in red ink that such a fantasy court palace could win voter's approval. The project was approved by the County Board and for some connected folks there are n...

Phoenix, AZ —Maricopa County, Arizona has always been a hotbed for corruption. The legendary land fraud exploits of Ned Warren and later massive savings and loan fraud of Charles Keating could have never happened without the total cooperation of corrupt public officials. Arizona has long been for sale to the highest bidder. The AZSCAM indictments only snared some low level members of the Legislature because the late Director of Public Safety and former Phoenix police boss, Ralph Milstead tipped of the real legislative power brokers. Law enforcement bosses sans the elected Sheriff must cooperate with the crooked politicians or be unemployed. As always, the lion’s share of political corruption comes from the Left wing of American politics. The free-spending Liberals throw around the most tax money and that invites the deal makers, lobbyists and criminal underbelly to feed like sharks. Corruption investigations always go nowhere and local and every level of government wallows in a s...

I had a marvelous time in Germany last month. I enjoy the people, their lifestyle and the wonderful food. I can’t wait to return! Investigation, film making or covering news is what I love best. Doing that in Germany really rocks. Getting drafted into the Army was made really sweet when I was sent to Germany and worked as an Army medical corpsman. I’m looking for any excuse at all to return!

Washington, DC —The Internet posting of the TSA 93 page, airline passenger screening playbook was a real eye opener. Not only have TSA’s screeners made up their own rules, politicians get special treatment ! No American should be searched in the absence of a search warrant signed by a judge or at least probable cause. That was supposed to be a Constitutional guarantee. Without a Constitutional Amendment our cowardly courts have allowed this vile practice. Americans are frisked like criminals to enter a train, plane or government building. That’s wrong and un-American. The politicians that have allowed this travesty have apparently provided themselves and families freedom from this indignity. Members of Congress, governors and lieutenant governors, the mayor of Washington, D.C., and their immediate families all get special treatment. These people must be required to live under the same conditions as every taxpayer. No American should get special treatment. If the TSA assault on ...
