Roanoke, VA —Most of my readers know that aside from being a private eye,  I’m also a freelance investigative TV news producer and have an extensive history working in this field. I’ve been blessed to work with some pretty terrific and talented people over the years. TV news people are a special breed that thrives on creativity to show their viewers what’s going on in their world.  TV news hires a diverse selection of people where race, gender, sexual preference is controlled by strict efforts to reflect Liberal ideals. They strive to meet strict diversity quotas rather than simply finding the most qualified candidates. Thankfully in the end it all seems to work out. Saying that I find the minorities they hire to be dedicated and gifted professionals that simply enjoy doing news.  I’ve been on the receiving end of kindness, lifetime friendships and the privilege of simply knowing like-minded people that are different.  We’re not really different because at ...

Los Angeles, CA —Many people consider the airspace  above the property that they own or lease is theirs.    Some have actually used firearms to shoot at drones somehow thinking that was somehow justified. Federal and state laws universally ban shooting at aircraft.   There are heavy penalties for shooting at drones or any aircraft, even UFOs.   Many drone operators operate on ignorance and have bought into the idea that there is or may be private ownership rights to airspace above private property. The law is simple, our airspace is shared public property.   Exclusively, the FAA regulates aircraft including drones operating in our airspace.   State and local governments cannot make or enforce laws regulating aircraft in our airspace.   Many local jurisdictions have tried out of the simple ignorance of their lawmakers.   Those laws they have already placed on the books are unenforceable due to the FAA preemption. Have the helicopt...

Los Angeles, CA --Those with less than honorable motives have distorted real public opinion on the immigration issue for decades. Now comes Donald Trump .   He has vowed to remove all the immigration trespassers. This will bring him a landslide of votes from both parties.   For sure he will get the Conservatives that have not had a candidate worthy of voting for, for decades! When you examine the issues like I have you will see why Trump can’t lose!   The single largest offender has been the major media that took the route of faux political correctness aiding the political Left.   Communism and Socialism can only survive with an unproductive, ignorant and needy majority lower class . Needless to say without out those votes those two evil political cancers would die. The obscene profits of large businesses are somewhat protected by a massive force of cheap labor.   Job competition always depresses wages. Big business supports the political campaigns...

Los Angeles, CA —Television news has been a 60-year exercise in monkey see, monkey do plagiarism. Today’s TV executives are playing to the lowest common denominator.   The unproductive and ignorant seem to be the current TV news target audience.     Does this serve the sponsors that thrive on financially sound viewer’s buying power? Is this more about guiding the lame, dependent and ignorant to vote for the Liberal political ticket?   I have no doubt that’s too often the reality.   It’s not the number of viewers but rather their spending power that counts in the end.   How can anyone sell new cars to brain-dead and impoverished underachievers? TV news would have died long ago but for lucrative political ads during elections.   My recommendations? I will begin with the abuse of the Breaking News label.   Last night’s news is not breaking in the morning.   Are viewers so dumb they can be convinced yesterday’s news is breaking? ...

Los Angeles, CA —Officials here recently claimed that drone operators endangered lives by halting firefighting efforts.  Angry local politicians vowed prosecution and new legislation to remedy this “huge and life threatening ” problem. Photographic evidence supporting those reports is non-existent .  You’d think the crew members presumably are all armed with smart phones would have captured images to help identify the drones to assist investigators.  There are no pictures because this never happened!  Needless to say there are no captured drones either. As for those helicopter pilots making these reports they seem to forget that their massive propeller’s, prop wash would simply blow any little cameras drones away from their aircraft into oblivion.  A near miss happened? Really?  The high cost of these camera drones makes their owners very protective of their investments.  If they are reckless and crash them, all the the fun is over. According...

Los Angeles, CA :  This morning (Aug 9, 2015) LAPD has a triple fatal accident on their hands.   This was at Roscoe Blvd and Haskell Avenue in the North Hills area.   Riley John Holman ,19   of Mission Hills was arrested on three counts of suspicion of gross vehicular manslaughter while intoxicated.  

Washington, DC--Hillary Clinton's constant corruption has created an real opportunity for the Lame Duck First Lady to stay in the Whitehouse for as much as another eight years. Suddenly the Obama Justice Department has begun an investigation into the Clinton e-mail activities thar clearly are at least technical violations of law.  Any prosecutor could present a case to a Federal Grand Jury and secure a multi-count indictment against Clinton in a heartbeat.  That would creat an instant opportunity for the overly ambitious Mrs. Obama to step up and offer herself up as the party nominee.  Democrats will see it as a way of gaining two more terms of Omana rule. But would she actually do that? I say sure she would! 

Los Angeles, CA —Let me offer this lifesaving idea for the thousands of watercraft both large and small sailing the seas. Drones are perfect as a backup to radar for observing watercraft in the area.   Drones won’t be affected by watercraft power failures. Additionally the drones can be sent up with special flashing emergency lights.   Unlike sending up a flare drones can stay in the sky for extended periods of time.  The only real issue is educating boaters about recognizing the drone distress signal indicating a boating emergency.
