Chicago, IL —Protecting his country in both World War Two and the Korean Conflict was no problem for LaFerena Batchelor, 84 but now he is not even allowed to protect himself. You see in this city run by officials that gratuitously violates the Constitutional Rights of their citizens as they label Batchelor and others criminals. The McDonald and Heller cases issued by the U.S. Supreme Court made it abundantly clear that all Americans not convicted of felony crimes or those witout a history of mental illness have the absolute right to keep and bear arms for self-defense purposes. In Batchelor’s case he was denied the right to obtain a gun because he once fired a gun within the city limits to chase a pack of wild dogs away from his home. That was no felony but a very minor transgressio that happened 15 years ago. Chicago officials now simply refuse their “permission” for Batchelor to own a firearm. To Batchelor’s rescue is Chicago lawyer Joel Brodsky who is prepared to take the ci...

As we approach the Fourth of July we need to reevaluate why we bother to celebrate our pretend independence. Fireworks, parties and flag-waiving are wasted on a couple of generations of propagandized and brainwashed Americans that never experienced real freedom. Americans have always assumed they had right to travel unimpeded by government. Who’d have thought in the days of the Continental Congress that we’d allow government to erect checkpoints where traveling Americans would be forced to submit to constant X-Rays and groping by an ignorant underclass of government workers? People sigh and say times have changed and the world is somehow more dangerous. That is the big lie. Times or the dangers we face have never once changed since this country was founded. There were always bombs, guns and terrorists throughout this nation’s history. We’ve endured wars and even a Civil War without throwing our liberty away. We have allowed some insignificant 13th Century minded Muslim crazies t...

Chicago, IL —Having a time consuming assignment in this fine old neighborhood is not bad considering many great restaurants in the area. Taylor Street was the location of one of my all time favorites, Genero’s but that great place closed down. I became addicted to Genero’s when I was assigned to the Monroe Street District in my youth Not to be dismayed I set out in search of some older looking; in the know neighborhood types and found a small group that might give us a recommendation. They told us to go to Salatino’s nearby at 626 S. Racine. Getting a parking spot was not too difficult and we were seated quickly considering it was a Friday night. We were greeted by General Manager Jimmy Psyhogios who was a friendly take charge type guy intent on making sure we had an enjoyable experience. When I think of Italian dining there is an image of red-checkered table clothes and a candle stuck in an empty basket-bottle of Dago Red. Of course there should be the Mario Lanzi, Eddie Fisher...

Phoenix, AZ —First let me say that Gays and Grannies need love too. Those that must work also deserve comparable wages as everyone in similar skill levels. They all have worth and rate fair treatment along with genuine respect. Here someone dared suggest that Gay men and older women may be better received in occupations other than that of flight attendants. Yes a Southwest Airlines pilot got caught on an open air traffic microphone ranting about the “New Breed” of flight attendants working for the airline. He made some unflattering remarks about the Gays and Grannies that have taken over the domain once reserved for young and friendly pretty ladies. First of all the ousting of the Southwest Airlines eye candy is disheartening for any straight male. The law, corporate attitudes and political correctness have changed in America. Is this for the better? I don’t think so. We are today a nation or crybabies that can’t accept anyone criticizing their culture, lifestyle, sexual preferenc...

Chicago, I L—Surveillance cameras will be doubled for Chicago’s public transportation system. That was today’s announcement from city officials as a treatment for the rash of cell phone and IPod robberies. The wonderful thing about surveillance cameras is not their effectiveness to reduce crime but the political contributions generated by the contractors providing them do great things for re-election campaigns. Cameras are really not that helpful. There are thousands of images of dangerous criminals that never get identified. Video recordings are worthless in and of themselves. Most people are unaware that a picture or video in and off itself is hearsay and therefore inadmissible as courtroom evidence without an, eyewitness and or DNA evidence. No jury will never be given the task to determine if the subject in the video is the suspect charged with a crime absent the testimony of a human at the scene. One by one traffic photo Robocams are being removed from American streets as the c...

Chicago, IL —With the nasty rash of Black on White crime in the trendy Magnificent Mile area the media has fallen down miserably on their job of reporting news. If you’re going to responsibly inform readers, listeners and viewers you must give the, who what, where and why or you fail. The recent bold attacks by roving gangs of Africa-American thugs on White residents and tourists have been covered up by the long established mainstream media until local cop bloggers forced the issue with their own reports. The reasons for the cover up may well be designed to keep officials from sending more aggressive cops into strike force style units to combat this very real urban terrorism. The other issue is inflaming the community into demanding a strong police presence that would offend Chicago’s Liberals. The ignorant population can't take simple steps to avoid victimization unless they are informed. The city administration on the other hand wants these stories killed so that tourism and t...

Orlando, FL —To call this case sensational is an understatement. Little Calee Anthony was reported missing by her grandmother in July of 2008. The fact was the little girl was not missing, but in fact dead. How she got that way is still a mystery. What’s not a mystery is that the child’s mother, Casey Anthony knowingly covered up a tragic accident or worse with a complicated series of lies and peculiar behavior. Accidental deaths are covered up all the time by those involved especially when they are ignorant and frightened. Nearly every human on the planet tells lies freely simply because they can. It is sad but profoundly true. Thankfully not every liar is not a murderer or the human race would have killed itself off long ago. The sordid details of this case, has been fueled by delighted gossipmongers and the vast network of true crime buffs. What should be a dignified search for the truth in a courtroom has degenerated into a disgraceful circus. The jury is charged with deter...

Chicago, IL —If you have a business in the now Flash Mob targeted Magnificent Mile insuring safety is vital. There are effective steps you can take to deal with theft and violence. Armed security is the most effective way to deal with thugs. These criminals are cowards and you can use their fear against them. If you can hire off-duty cops that will use their training and experience to effectively control the situation. Security cameras are meaningless except to warn you of what’s going on outside your front door or in difficult to monitor areas. Catching the images of thugs for potential later identification and apprehension does not protect anyone. If you have adequate training including the law and liability of the use of deadly force arm yourself with a heavy caliber handgun for self-defense. Keep valuable and unprotected merchandise away from the front door that might tempt such criminals. If you are the subject of a Flash Mob attack immediate and violent resistance is the easie...

Chicago, IL —White folks on the Gold Coast have been smug for a long time as they supported the “Nanny” government programs and all that Liberal claptrap. Black violence was nearly always confined to the ghetto. White people are beginning to learn about the violent and bankrupt African-American culture of Chicago the hard way. The Black Flash Mob crime pattern is targeting Chicago’s White people in incredibly hateful new ways. These thugs easily overwhelm the outgunned, overworked, underpaid and totally demoralized police department and evade arrest by their sheer numbers. Those ignorant White, Gold Coast Liberals that don’t believe in gun rights or self-defense are getting what they deserve, a very painful education. The cowardly thugs know the law-abiding Gold Coast dwellers would never violate those un-constitutional guns laws and accordingly are soft and easy targets. They say a Conservative is a liberal that was mugged. There’s a lot of truth in that old saying. The concealed weap...

Los Angeles, CA —When I’m in L.A. it’s in Westwood Village this is what I see. It’s primarily the land around UCLA and there are students everywhere out celebrating their youth. Needless to say there are some smashing looking coeds among the ordinary. Westwood is on the West side next to toney Brentwood. There are four large movie theaters here that are the scene of Hollywood film premiers. There are many restaurants, stores and places for ice cream and yogurt competing for the student trust fund accounts. Westwood Memorial Park is here that houses the remains of some many well-known actors, including Marilyn Monroe, Dean Martin, Don Knotts, Burt Lancaster , and Jack Lemon . The area is well protected by both L.A.P.D. and the UCLA Police Department . Serious crimes here are rare accordingly. Sit back and enjoy two short videos I shot, one and night and the other in daylight.

Joliet, IL —We are watching the second anniversary of retired Bolingbrook police sergeant Drew Peterson’s arrest without a trial. An appeal taken forth on a judicial ruling by prosecutors has prevented Peterson from getting his day in court. He’s been held on an unusually high bail of $20 million. This might not be so egregious had Peterson been held on more than a promise of producing normally inadmissible incriminating hearsay evidence. The hearsay consists of nothing more than versions of conversations provided by people who have financial incentives to see Peterson convicted. Some of the hearsay is nothing more than third-part gossip. This garbage does not belong in an American courtroom. There is not a single shred of physical evidence that Peterson harmed anyone. The evidence of the cause of death of Peterson’s third wife, Kathleen Savio is by no means settled scientifically. If the cause of death is somehow a homicide there still is no meaningful evidence that sheds light...

Carol Stream, IL —I recently suggested to my friend Raj Singh , President of Eagle Grips that he needs to shake up the gun world with some color. I had no clue what rich materials he’d find or just how fantastic they'd look. The material is so incredible that photo images can’t seem to capture the true luster and beauty of the gem quality material that must be cut shaped and polished into the finished product. Of course the traditional materials of rosewood, ebony wood, stagg, elk Mother of Pearl and ivory are still available but there is that special occasion handgun needs something different. Visit Eagle Grips at www.eaglegrips.com and see the entire line. American Handgunner Magazine editor Roy Huntington recently gave me his impression of the new material.

Phoenix, AZ—The TSA is at it again. The TSA thugs grope a woman who begs for help from the police. The immediate response from the TSA goons was to obstruct the efforts of the woman’s son to document the event by making a video recording. They make a phony clain that shooting video at the airport is somehow a crime. There is no law of any kind that prohibits video recording in any of our civilian airports. The TSA’s own regulations for their baggage screeners make that fact abundantly clear. Even the audio gathering in a public area is reasonable because those talking have the choice to simply shut up since they know there is a live video camera. The TSA workers have no expatiation of privacy. Why must we tolerate this kind of assault on our American freedom and liberty? In the last 235 years so many Americans have given their lives in mortal combat to prevent the formulation of a police state in America. Don’t be deterred from resisting the TSA. Video record these out-of-control ...

Berlin, Germany —Kitchen cleanliness in Europe, especially in Germany generally exceeds that of the US. Scientists found a previously unknown form of the deadly bacteria on vegetables and now people are dying as a result. Panic is setting in as other nations ban vegetables exported from Germany. The only explanation for this that makes sense is terrorism. I hope that this real possibility is not being overlooked.

Yuma, AZ —Today six people connected to a nasty divorce are dead. Apparently a divorce that was adjudicated two years ago did not sit well with one man and he methodically killed those who made his life Hell. I have not and won’t investigate the event other than to say someone was really pissed off. Was he justified to kill everyone? In this case is there was only one opinion that counted, that of the man exacting revenge. There are the mentally disturbed people that are set off by little transgressions. They over-react and sometimes commit mayhem. There are those that feel justified in violently assaulting or killing others for annoyance or envy. As a private investigator I have been inside the worst divorces, swindles and abuse of citizens by government officials. I have seen more than one life destroyed by wrongful prosecutions and convictions. I’ve found it to be a monument to our civilization that there aren’t more killings of some really deserving people. I have tracked ma...

Chicago, IL —They are calling them “Wildings”, the latest fad for idle young Blacks. They use texting and social networks to form large groups to take control of stores, businesses and now beaches. The plan is simple, to rob, beat and molest as many non-Blacks as they can. Police resources are very slim and the thugs have easy and cheap transportation to the areas they have victimized. Make no mistake these are serious and violent hate crimes. Intended victims are justified in using deadly force to end attacks involving multiple offenders. White Chicagoans should stay away from the Gold Coast, beaches, or other entertainment spots for the entire summer. The police can’t do much but write reports after the violence. The news media and city officials are in a conspiracy of silence about this perhaps to avoid the fiscal ramifications a boycott would bring. They laughably shut the two most popular beaches claiming the heat injuries made them too dangerous. Nobody’s buying that propaganda...
