Washington, DC —What is past is prologue. It won’t be any different this time around but government has more effective weapons to use on its own population. Both Bush and Obama gave the crooks running Wall Street, banks and some Michigan automakers bailouts. They handed out loads golden parachutes to politically connected criminals that have gotten invested in off-shore bank accounts, gold, diamonds and better vacation properties. American taxpayers on the other hand hemorrhage their jobs, homes, retirement and insurance policies because of extortionate taxation that has destroyed their businesses. We have only one way to revive our economy. We must quickly force government to roll back its growth to 1980 levels. Then, government should be slowly reduced to 1960 levels. Our national defense and foreign aid budget should be reallocated to deporting illegal aliens that have bankrupted our schools and medical providers. We could suspend all employer taxes for those businesses that...

Washington, DC —Before Janet Napolitano left Arizona as Governor she entered into a massive corrupt contract with a company called Redflex for robot speed cameras on the highways. Redflex had great lobbyists that knew how to grease the political wheels to fleece Arizona’s drivers out of millions of dollars. Thankfully, Napolitano is gone and now so are her cameras. Left behind are the sordid campaign contributions and junkets at five-star hotels for Arizona’s politicians. For the robot camera system to work, longstanding rules barring hearsay evidence were sidestepped to allow this so-called evidence to be used in courtrooms. This was and is a violation of the Fifth and Sixth Amendments of our Constitution. Politicians thrive on the power of money under their control. Few politicians avoid special perks and corruption when it comes to government contracts. Politicians and their bureaucrats love making government grow because of simple corruption too. They can abuse the patronage syst...

Washington, DC —Anyone who ever thought that Barack Obama was going to improve freedom and liberty in America was horribly mistaken. Many Liberals think that those Ultra-Left-Wingers are somehow the guardians of our Civil Liberties and they are and were gravely mistaken. The Patriot Act was the product of the Liberal George Bush Administration, not Conservatives. Real Conservatives loathed Bush for his Mideast war adventures, his creation of Homeland Security and of course the Patriot Act. Many people voted for Obama thinking he'd undo some of the Bush damage to freedom, liberty and of course the national debt. I also have to say that that pretend Republican John McCain was a pathetic offering by the GOP for a Presidential candidate. Americans would lose the 2008 election no matter who won. As for any hope of undoing any damage to America brought on by Bush, Obama has made things substantially worse. Obama kept nearly every rotten Bush policy in place and he has broadened an...

Mexico, City, Mexico —Mexico is run by a corrupt and pathetic group of criminals. Government whores thrive financially with the drug trade and the obscene profits as they conspire with the criminals. Caught up are some police and drug rivals into a violent world of mass murder. The guns involved are often of German and American manufacture. They are supplied to the gangsters, not by American gun dealers but Mexican government officials. The guns are either sold or stolen in raids on government installations. Most of the weapons are fully automatic rather than the semi-automatic variety available at American gun dealers. The Mexican government is whining about the guns that fall in the hand of “unapproved” drug cartels. They claim that is the result of American gun freedom. If Mexico does not like American freedom they are free to erect along their border. Of course the gun rights haters living in the United States want to use Mexico’s mess as a reason to take freedom from America...

Joliet, IL —Behind bars is an American citizen whose been there for nearly one and one-half years. He is innocent having never been convicted of so much as littering in his life. With paper thin evidence, bail for this man has been set at $20 million. Honorably retired Bolingbrook police sergeant Drew Peterson stands accused having been indicted for murder on mere hearsay evidence. This is the very kind of evidence that the Fifth and Sixth Amendment to our sacred Bill of Rights has precluded from trials for 234 years. Illinois politicians have created a new law to lower the bar of justice to mirror The People’s Court of Germany in 1943 . Peterson has by all accounts been a great father to his children and at the same time a lousy husband throughout four marriages. Being a lousy husband does not make a killer. One estranged wife died apparently in the safety her, locked home in her own bathtub. That death was investigated and determined to be an accident by the coroner and police. Th...

We all know too many out of work folks now for sure. Especially hard hit are those at or approaching middle age. These are the very same people that just in the last few years had promising jobs and put their savings into beautiful homes that they have lost or are losing. Americans can’t afford to keep their children in college or spend money their neighborhood businesses need to keep their doors open. Resumes are everywhere but jobs have dried up. Lots of foolish People with jobs are still spending with the blind faith that somehow things will be better soon. They can’t or won’t face the inevitable reality of the financial collapse of the free world. Law firms everywhere are seeing their clients retainers evaporate and but for debtor’s lawyers the legal industry is getting to the breaking point. Criminal law is slowing down because financial resources are drying up and cases are quietly not being prosecuted. People are getting desperate as their worlds and businesses are crashing...

Phoenix, AZ —After leaving Chicago to open my detective agency in Phoenix I learned that over-reporting crime was all the rage in this city. This sent me into a police culture shock. I had spent my prior years learning that as a policeman my job was to kill crime with my pencil rather than a gun. The City of Chicago wanted to create an illusion of low crime and at the same time show our uncanny ability to solve the more serious crimes at a much higher rate than the national average. Crime reporting nationwide by police is done through the Uniform Crime Reports made to the FBI . There are the more serious Part One Crimes and then there are the lesser Part Two crimes. The whole thing becomes complicated with those abused, wasted and mismanaged federal funds created and maintained during 50 years of political progressives controlling Congress. The most common examples for Chicago cops are as follows. 1. You respond to a call of a burglary and find no suspects or viable leads to solve ...

In keeping with tradition of Americans to travel for the Christmas holidays. Here is the latest offering in Christmas music! The TSA has a very special Christmas "gift" for you! Enjoy the newest Christmas song!

Washington, DC —After nearly 2 ½ years of legitimate questions there is mounting evidence that shows Barack Obama was born not in America but, Kenya, Africa. Obamas lawyers have earned some $1.5 million dollars successfully protecting his birth, passport, school loan and IL State Bar records from exposure. The only answer for that is obvious and that is Obama was born in a Kenya maternity hospital as his very own paternal grandmother publically proclaimed. United States Army, Lt. Colonel Terrence Lakin refused to deploy to his duty assignment in reasonable belief that Obama is unlawfully holding office. If Laken was correct in his assertion any order from Obama would be null and void. We will not learn anything from this prosecution since the judge refused to order the records open or to even put Obama under oath. Lakin was convicted on one charge and pled guilty on another related to this issue. Now this physician/soldier who previously had a stellar service record faces three and ...

Europe--In as many days The United Kingdom, Italy and today Greece has exploded in mob violence. This dramatic video shows a deadly effort to kill the local cops. When will this unrest come here? It’s a just matter of time.

Panama City, Fl —When Clay Duke , 56 took the floor at the local school board meeting Tuesday he did so with spray paint and a gun. What followed can be seen below in a somewhat graphic video. Duke’s wife was fired from her job by the board. It’s obvious that Duke did not see justification for the firing and there can be no doubt that the tough economy would have a substantial impact on the Dukes. Hiring lawyers to undo wrongs by boards and commissions is financially crippling to most Americans. When boards and commissions fire people they are often reckless with the due process rights of the employees. The basis of firings are far too often, rooted in sexual, racial, or pure personality conflicts between employees and superiors. He who has the political clout win these battles far more often than when simple justice prevails. Those with the financial ability to fight arbitrary board actions very often win in the courts winning reinstatement and back pay. Duke served five years on...

Rome, Italy —Europe is taking on the same look as it had prior to World War Two. Past is prologue. Can civil unrest in America be far behind in light of the Obama Administration corruption? At least 50 police and 40 protesters have been injured as hundreds of students clashed with police near the residence of Silvio Berlusconi in Italy's capital on Tuesday. The riots came as parliament decided on the prime minister's future. Berlusconi secured a comfortable victory in the no-confidence vote at the senate, but survived a similar motion in the lower house by just three votes. Demonstrators marched through Rome's historic center, throwing firecrackers that boomed as lawmakers cast their votes. Similar protests took place in other parts of the country.

I guess it was going to happen since Internet free speech is just too free. People are using YouTube to suggest violence as a way to deal with government tyranny. YouTube will resolve complaints by viewers of political content that suggest those routine and historical ways to preserve freedom. YouTube has said they will begin disabling accounts. This is a simple and pure effort to tightly control Americans, and YouTube and its Google parent are taking sides against thought and speech. Free speech is considered by too many in this world as too powerful a tool for Americans to possess. Every criminal political regime in history has found it necessary to control thought and speech. YouTube should butt out and simply let the law and our courts decide what’s over the top rather than become a part of a repressive political force. Perhaps this is a move by Google to gain favor with impending regulation via the so-called and misnamed, Net Neutrality Internet control effort by the Social...

I got a simple rebuke of sorts on Facebook from a journalist friend I knew since she was a TV news intern. She defends the TSA as necessary and says traveling is a privilege, not a right. I have an answer for her that follows: First of all let me say that millions of brave Americans died and were maimed in war so we could have a Bill of Rights that is the basis for our freedom. Nobody including our Presidents, Congress or popular opinion trumps our Constitution short of using the Amendment process. Americans cannot be forced to waive their rights to in order to travel, breathe or raise their children. The TSA cannot stop explosives or terror with the means they have employed anyway. The TSA has still never stopped a single terrorist event despite billions of our tax dollars and thousands employed by that Socialist inspired TSA Jobs Program. Any terrorist incidents to date that have been interrupted were only stopped by alert and courageous passengers. The TSA program is all only a ...

Phoenix, AZ —Arizona this past summer lifted virtually all restrictions on the possession and carrying of firearms by all but convicted felons, wife beaters and mental defectives. Today, Arizonans can pack as many loaded weapons on their persons or in their vehicles as they can carry. There is no registration of either the guns or the owners. There are no waiting periods or other obstructions to buying firearms. There remains the federal instant background check and other requirements involving transfers and sales of firearms. The state’s largest newspaper, The Arizona Republic has announced a substantial reduction in homicides for Phoenix and it surrounding communities. That’s despite a large increase in illegal alien drug violence and human trafficking related behavior. Somewhere since statehood (1910) Arizona’s gun hating politicians outlawed concealed weapons for all but active peace officers. Citizens could make an end run around the ban simply by joining their local Sheriff’s Po...

Washington, DC —The Obama Administration and their Czars have control of the banks, industry, health care, fuel and our food supply. They have neutralized our military by prolonging their presence two unnecessary wars. The Perfect Storm needed by the Obama Administration to suspend the Constitution may have arrived. I have written previously that the time of such a move would take place in the short time between the election and the time the deposed politicians are evicted from the Capital. The Congressional investigations brought on by the new Conservative majority would quickly result in Obama being impeached or otherwise removed. That hour is approaching and the rejected Socialists are now desperate. Controlling the information is the last frontier for any revolution. The First Amendment with the rest of our Constitution is ripe and ready to be suspended and Wikileaks is the excuse they’re looking for. The signal for the start of America’s second Civil War will be the shutting dow...

London, England --The UK has spent itself into Socialist Bankruptcy . They have no money and now it’s time to shut off the handouts to the now heavy Muslim population. It won’t be pretty as the damage puts taxpayers against the wall for even more deprivation. Today is only the beginning of what may sweep the formerly free world. The next step is the suspension of all civil rights and Civil War. Enjoy the video:

Beverly Hills, CA --Here is some theory, science and investigative issues police must deal with is this killing of Hollywood publicist, Ronni Chasen . Someone could have searched for and recovered the empty brass ejected by a semi-automatic pistol but at night that seems unlikely. The reality is that the cops simply never determined the shooting location so they did not know where to look for the brass. Ballistic firearm identification science can be easy or impossible. In the case of revolvers there are only the expended projectiles. Soft lead that had been sent into flesh, bones and heavy clothing are often damaged beyond recognition. This is especially true for smaller caliber high velocity ammunition. Slower moving larger bullets suffer less damage and are more easily identified. Most of the modern center-fired ammunition have copper jackets covering the softer lead. This material is more likely to have identifiable rifling marks for the examiner’s microscope. With semi-automati...

Beverly Hills, CA —In fairness to the Beverly Hills police they don’t have lots of homicides they can use to hone their skills. They must rely on help they ask for from other agencies. First the BHPD thought that ex-con, Harold Smith’s gun was not involved in the Chasen killing. Today, they’ve changed their story saying that it was the same gun. It seems on its face that Smith was not a hit man but a habitual criminal that among other crimes served time for robbing two Beverly Hills women in the past. Police now think that Smith shot Chasen from his bicycle in a botched robbery. That is their best guess right now until they finish their investigation. I have problems with that theory in that it looks like Smith shot Chasen through her closed passenger door window rather than threaten or rob her. I’m not buying the robbery angle. Smith strikes me as an irrational, dysfunctional and violent criminal. He’d be a really poor choice as a hired hit man. Smith may have had an accomplice a...

Beverly Hill, CA —When Hollywood publicist, Ronni Chasen was gunned down in her car last month police had a mystery on their hands. The sad truth is that these days with all our technology and tools there is not more that a 35% chance that this or any other murder will be solved. To get to the bottom of this investigation we have to speculate whether this was, or was not a random crime. There is at least one woman e-mailing and making comments on my site suggesting that there was a similar random gun assault where she was the victim. There is no such reported attack and I refuse to buy into this diversion. Crimes like the Chasen murder are almost never random. There is a motive that led to this killing. Greed, jealousy, revenge, hatred are common in every murder since Cain killed Able. This is no carjacking since Chasen was safely locked in her car. No carjacker wants to take a car with a shot out passenger window and a dead or gravely wounded driver strapped in a seatbelt behind th...

Washington, DC —There were the infamous Gestapo, Stazi and Red Guard . They all sought and maintained civilian armies of snitches to help their rogue governments maintain absolute power. These government thugs wanted any information they could use against the victims they selectively targeted. Today we have the Department of Homeland Security that is quickly stepping into this role in the United States. They are massively expanding their authority, reach and budget to smash dissent, and any resistance to government repression and violation of our Civil Rights. If you have not noticed, our government has suspended the Fourth Amendment in the name of anti-terrorism. If you haven’t noticed, It’s our own government that has become the terrorist. Now Homeland Security is beginning a massive recruitment drive to get people to snitch on their neighbors. When this happens they suggest they want information about crime or terrorism but this always degenerates into what these criminal regimes ...

Chicago, IL —Tuesday, December 7 at noon inside Plumber’s Hall located at 1412 W. Washington, St. Lodge 7 of the FOP will meet with the membership. Up for consideration and suggestion at is the return of the right to keep and bear arms of disabled cops throughout the state of Illinois. We can only guess how this happened. Perhaps it was a police boss that thought by disarming injured cops he’d cure potential malingering and get them back to work quicker. The Illinois UUW statute is in serious conflict with the Second Amendment since both the Heller and McDonald decisions of the Supreme Court. The days of prosecutions of law-abiding people carrying guns on the streets for self-defense are numbered as various challenges wind their way through the court system. In the meantime cops who are ambulatory, walking around the city where they worked and were forced to live, are running into violent criminals they’ve arrested in the past. Any one of these criminals could believe that some d...

If I owned or controlled a TV station in let’s say Chicago I’d being doing TV news just a little differently. I have a gritty crime reporting unit that is separated from general assignment reporting. As always the news casts leads off with whatever segment has the most importance of that day. Weather always leads when it’s severe or the broadcast could be hinged on a major sports story. However when it bleeds, it leads. The crime, courts and corruption segment would have its own name like Crimebeat, special graphics and faces. Reporters in this group need an attitude and style set apart from general assignment correspondents. They’d be using certain cop slang terms such as perp-walk, pinched, collared, and mug-shot. These reporters would be recruited from the ranks of cops, prosecutors and defense lawyers. TV news viewers need to believe the crimebeat reporter understands his or her business. In the end it’s all about credibility and trust. No news department can function without ...

Hollywood, CA —It was apparently defective information supplied to the TV Show, America’s Most Wanted and talkative but unreliable neighbors that made an ex-con an unlikely suspect in the Ronni Chasen murder. When police obtain search warrants they are placed under oath. The rub is those who provide such information to police are never under oath. Accordingly search warrants are routinely issued on unreliable hearsay or even gossip. We will have to wait until the Smith search warrant is unsealed to know for sure. California’s public records laws are some of the worst in the nation. It’s unlikely that warrant will ever see sunshine especially now. Had there been a connection between any weapon in Harold Smith’s possession and the Chasen murder, Beverly Hills police would know by now and they’d be interrogating other investigative leads and closing in on the real story. Smith was already a two time loser and apparently his ongoing criminal conduct was making him a solid candidat...

Let me say that my blog visitors don’t consider me a bleeding heart or a Liberal by a long-shot. I believe that those who prey upon and victimize their fellow man deserves swift and severe punishment. There was a recent story of a prison inmate that created a Facebook page with a contraband Blackberry cell-phone. Cell-phones are considered a big no-no by the wardens of our jails and prisons. They are so wrong about this. These can become privileges that foster good behavior. Inmates can be induced to perform well in educational or job training programs with a small perk like that. Prison visitation can be accomplished through the use of Skype.com’s free video teleconferencing service. There would be no risk of contraband being brought into our correctional facilities. Let’s face it inmates will be released someday and it’s better if they have the support of friends and loved ones. Prisons are nearly always difficult for visitors to travel because of distances. Those important bonds...

Beverly Hills, CA —When Ronni Chasen was gunned down in her car last month in Beverly Hills it became obvious there was some very bad blood between her and someone else. TMZ.com has published a report that included a copy of the 1994 Last Will and Testament of the murdered women. This very wealthy murder victim stiffed her niece, Jill Gatsby , a near-do-well actress, singer etc. in the Will. Chasen willed her a measly ten-spot as quoted in the document, "I have intentionally and with full knowledge of the consequences omitted to provide for my niece, Jill Cohen, also known as Jill Gatsby , except for the gift of $10." It is customary to leave something to relatives you hate so they can’t later claim they were somehow forgotten and get a piece of your pie from some sympathetic probate judge. Gatsby chose an entertainment career that has been stuck in park just as many thousands of others seeking fortune and fame in Hollywood. Ronni Chasen had the ability to promote anyone w...

Beverly Hills, CA —My analysis of the scant publicized facts connected to the November 16th murder of Hollywood publicist Ronni Chasen has proven to be correct. I said this was no random killing and that Ms. Chasen had pissed off someone in a big way. I properly predicted police would quickly zero in on the offender and clear this case. Tonight the Associated Press published the story that the yet to be identified suspect shot himself dead as police were closing in on him to serve a search warrant. I call him a suspect rather than that nebulous. “Person of Interest” term because of the existence of the search warrant. In order to obtain a search warrant police need to establish Probable Cause under oath that a crime was committed and provide the judge with, the who, what and where facts of the case. There is a very thin line between obtaining a search warrant and making an arrest. Now we know the police have at least one gun in their possession to rule in or out of the Chasen m...

Washington, DC -- The sudden and shocking use of naked pornoscanners and incredibly offensive genital groping of American men women and children at airports is just a test. This has nothing to do with anti-terrorism and everything to do with incremental efforts to establish absolute power. The TSA controversy has oddly become a loyalty test. Those Americans that favor Barack Obama are generally okay with the new program. The Conservatives and Libertarians on the other hand are preparing for Civil War. It all boils down to the suspension of the Bill of Rights by a rogue President. You can be sure there are plans to take the pornoscanners to American streets to enforce United Nations Global Gun Control that Obama and his cronies have openly favored. Obama has control of the Internet and will be soon shutting down loud voices or resistance like Alex Jones and prisonplanet.com . As the voices of resistance are shut down, brave Americans will have no choice but to use the same tactic...

Chicago, IL —When we think of government secrets we think of intelligence agencies and their spies. Military secrets are paramount to any nation’s defense and that’s not what I’m talking about. Secrecy in state and local governments is out-of-control. The secrecy advocates are all Left wingers that thirst for power over citizens and their money. Yes, those in government that hate transparency are nearly always on the Left. Those who demand open records are nearly always the Conservatives and Libertarians. Corruption in government is always rampant wherever records are buried from public view. The excuse always offered for the secrecy is a bogus claim of privacy. What they really want is privacy from prying eyes that will expose waste, mismanagement, theft, extortion and bribery. Hiding public records promotes the abuse of Americans by power hungry and corrupt bureaucrats. The Left fought the release of sex offender records for decades, again citing privacy. What they really wer...

Los Angeles, CA —He was a Public Information Officer (PIO) for the Los Angeles County Superior Court. It was a well paying job with great benefits. His job was to provide public information to the masses through the media. This sounds simple enough until the public records being revealed have a certain odor to them. His name is Allan Parachini and he came from the ranks of working reporters at the L.A. Times to be named as PIO for the court. He was hired to do a sort of tap dance between judges and administrators who often hate each other. They all demanded that Parachini be their personal cheerleader. The most infamous PIO of all times was a real media genius we remember as Joseph Goebbels , who was the Minister of Enlightenment and Propaganda for the Third Reich . Goebbels kept the secrets and fed the world’s news media a steady diet of disinformation. Instead of serving the German people, he served and was a huge part of a criminal regime. When it comes to American court rec...
