Looking Ahead For YouTube and Video Sharing

Los Angeles, Westwood Village—Film Independent’s Los Angeles Film Festival is here until June 29th. YouTube is here sharing tips and needed information with film makers.

To begin, YouTube owes its life to the pornographers that paved the Information Highway with gold for them. Had there not been a huge market waiting to pay in order to see cyber broadcast displays of affection the technology may have been behind a decade or even two.

YouTube managed to put themselves out front despite shortcomings and stiff competition. The possibilities for this 800-pound gorilla are endless and the next generation is just beginning.

They are unveiling a new higher resolution format to take us out of Data Compression Hell. The new images you’ll be seeing are not the kid stuff of Coke and Mentos fame.

They’ve added a remarkable tracking feature that allows you to see the demographics of your audience and the destination your viewers came from. Of all the videos I’ve uploaded mostly for this blog I was absolutely shocked to learn two of them have a 100% male audience. The obvious question is, what did I do piss the ladies off?

Getting your video featured by YouTube is like winning the lottery. A really entertaining video may never get the attention it deserves and some pathetic juvenile offering will get a gazillion hits. There are just too many videos for anyone to really look for the good stuff to feature at Youtube. The only answer here is using good TAG words to bring in people using search terms.

Copyright infringement if a giant buzz word right now and the subject of a mountain of litigation. The copyright holders are finally realizing that their protected products that have been pirated have actually generated new and unexpected revenue! It’s not YouTube but their users who brought new life to performances long forgotten and new money for the victims of the infringement.

I have talked to two performers who are somewhat retired today about this phenomena. Neither star owns the rights to what was posted on Youtube. They both told me they were really happy to see their fans had done this and has sparked new interest and sales of material they created decades before YouTube ever existed.

YouTube has opened the YouTube Screening Room to serious film makers. They will be showing four new films every week. Aside from sharing revenue I would not be surprised to see YouTube providing needed capital to their own proven box office winners.

Here’s a Great Target For The Bad Guys

This little tanker holds 9000 gallons of liquid gold. This is truly a hot commodity for any terrorists or armed robbers. This vehicle has a single and guaranteed by law to be unarmed driver. At least that’s the case in California, Illinois, New York, Wisconsin and New Jersey where concealed weapons are non-existent or simply just refused.

These drivers must risk their life as they avoid fires and accidents and now the skyrocketing price of fuel will make these drivers marked men.

Killers, robbers and terrorists need to know that so many American politicians are looking out for their welfare!

The L.A. Film Festival, Is Up and Running!

It’s time for Screenings, seminars, friends and lots of fun in Westwood Village. . It’s all here at least through June 26.

Watch your Back Mr. Obama…

Juan Perón: “Dice are rolling - the knives are out. Would-be presidents are all around, I don't say they mean harm, but they'd each give an arm... to see us six feet underground.” That quote from Andrew Lloyd Webber’s, Evita could be expected today from Party Nominee, Barack Obama to his wife Michelle when talking about their fellow Democrats.

This is the quite before the storm that I expect to erupt during the Democratic National Convention in Denver. The Machiavellian, Second Place Winner did not get a wooden stake driven through her heart and has only suspended her campaign.

Mrs. Clinton has legions of people out digging for her and she has or will get the information to sink Obama’s ship. The former First Lady has used the services of Anthony Pellicano the convicted wire-tapper who kept C-4 explosives and at least one hand grenade in his office safe. Pellicano and Mrs. Clinton share the same philosophy, to find out no matter what it takes. Pellicano may be behind bars but there are plenty others that look just as fashionable in wiretapper's headphones as he ever did.

The Obama’s have a graveyard of skeletons in their closet that are only starting to rattle. Their associations with known criminals, corrupt officials, racists, and terrorists have just begun to gain attention.

The Obama financial portfolio has lots of forensic accountants digging for political gold nuggets that are waiting explode in Denver. I expect that the Democratic ticket will be re-slated with, guess who?

Chicago--Dr. Suzanna Gratia-Hupp is best remembered for her having lunch with her parents at a Luby’s cafeteria in Killeen, Texas when an armed madman crashed his pick-up truck right into the cafeteria and began random executions of innocent people on October 16, 1991.

Dr. Gratia-Hupp, a chiropractor and competitive handgun shooter regretfully obeyed the Texas law forbidding the carrying of concealed weapons. Gratia-Hupp’s gun was in her car instead of with her when she needed it most.

The result was the gunman was never challenged as he shot 43 people killing 23 including both of Gratia-Hupp’s parents. The carnage finally ended when the crazed killer, George Jo Hennard shot himself dead. None of us can imagine the horror of seeing our own parents savagely slaughtered.

Dr. Gratia-Hupp answered her call to duty and became an incredibly articulate speaker and powerful gun-rights advocate.

Soon Gratia-Hupp took on anti-gun-rights zealot, Senator Chuck Schumer during a gun control bill debate in a televised Senate committee hearing. Gratia-Hupp was nothing less than heroic in the way she shamed the pathetic politician for his position.

Dr. Gratia-Hupp went on to serve several terms in the Texas Legislature where she brought Right To Carry legislation all the way home and improved it considerably in latter sessions.

I’m proud to say I was able to met this hero at an NRA convention in 1993 and give her a hug. Now it’s your turn!

Tell your neighbors and friends to make this a peaceful event Midwest politicians will never forget.

This great lady can be seen in this video.

Hollywood Movie’s Gun Images and Public Perceptions

Hollywood—Guns are sexy, powerful and contraband for all except spies, police and the military. Of course we want Hollywood’s sexiest stars to sport them for movie posters. Get Smart star, Anne Hathaway seen here is truly a movie babe with a gun.

The power of guns, especially hand guns is amazing as the movie makers have demonstrated. A single shot kills nearly every time as the victim is blown over a car and sent crashing into a plate glass window. At least that’s what those talented special effects guys repeatedly demonstrate for us.

The truth is the Hollywood’s magic bullets don’t exist and handguns aren’t nearly as effective as most people including gun owners believe. Most gun owners have never been in a shooting or have ever seen anyone shot.

In the films special people, like San Francisco police detective, Dirty Harry Callahan and the Death Wish Vigilante, Paul Kersey seem to do more than their fair share of population control or what some call retroactive abortions.

It’s the guns that are too often the real stars of Hollywood, they are so exotic and flashy like the human stars they are seen in the film with.

Guns have their own star-power; just ask any gun dealers what happens after a hit movie with a gun in a starring role hits the screen.

The real star of Dirty Harry was never Clint Eastwood. Eastwood was chopped liver compared to the Smith & Wesson .44 Magnum. Dirty Harry sold many thousands of Smith & Wesson Model #29s that simply sat on store shelves until, “Make my day” became one of the most parroted movie lines in history.

Movies cause people’s imaginations to run wild and don’t count on screenwriters to abandon guns anytime soon. Guns sell movies and movies sell guns. Hollywood’s representations of guns have also sold politicians on making many more gun laws.

The best example I can give you of Hollywood’s power to influence lawmakers was how the Broadway play turned into a movie, West Side Story brought us the near total ban of switchblade knives in America in the early 1960s.

See A Very Fair CNN Report On Gun Control In America

More Americans per year are killed by cigarettes, booze and bacon than firearms. It's the gun deaths get the highest possible visibility and redundant news reporting.

In recent time the truth about guns and the failure of gun bans to even slow down violence is starting to see light.

The NRA Wants You To Fight In a Courtroom!

With the expected success of D.C vs. Heller in defeating the Gun Ban in our nation’s capital the NRA is setting their sights on vigorous challenges to jurisdictions that violate the gun rights of their citizens.

In the best case scenario, jurisdictions like Chicago and New York will read and obey the law of the land without wasting tax dollars trying to enforce laws that have been struck down by Heller.

We know from experience that will not be the case. Instead too many politicians will try to stall and delay following the Supreme Court’s edict. Instead they will continue to prosecute gun owners engaged in constitutional protected activity. Those politicians will abuse tax dollars as they fight the very constitution they were sworn to protect.

In order to force certain jurisdiction to end handgun bans similar to that of the District of Columbia. Law abiding plaintiffs must be located that have been impacted by guns bans. The fight will continue in courtrooms until the unlawful government activity is ended.

There seem to be sufficient plaintiff for Chicago and the suburbs that have banned guns but more are needed. Specifically Oak Park, Illinois residents that wish to challenge the ban there must come forward. There are certain requirements for the plaintiff’s as follows:

1. Must not have a criminal record.

2. Must have an IL FOID card.

3. Must live in Oak Park, IL.

4. Must cooperate and assist the lawyer assigned to the case. This will only take a minimum amount of time.

5. Must be over 21 years of age.

6. Must be sane and sober.

7. Must want to register or re-register an existing gun currently stored outside of the jurisdiction, or obtain a new one.

Benefits:

1. You will help restore liberty, freedom and safety to your household.

2. You may possibly win money damages against the city or town that's violating your rights.

3. There will be no cost for legal services.

Sheriff Joe Is On The Right Side Of Our Illegal Immigration Debate

Phoenix, AZ—Sheriff Joe Arpaio is in the middle of a re-election campaign and a firestorm of controversy. Arpaio is steadily rounding up those who dare violate our borders by sneaking into our country.

The looney Liberals and open borders people are going nuts with their massive and well publicized campaign to stop the popular Sheriff. I’m not without criticism of this sheriff, I don’t agree with all of his methods or publicity stunts. For the most part I support his aggressive stand on crime and the fact that he’s truly fearless.

On the illegal Immigration issue Arpaio is preventing a never ending theft of medical and educational resources from taxpayers. Illegal immigration is exactly why too many Americans don’t have proper health care and our schools are in a mess. The sheriff’s policy also impacts the crime and illegal drug trade which behind poverty are Mexico’s largest exports to our country.

The majority of Americans want the mass violations of our borders and the plundering of our taxes by these invaders to end. Our politicians have not responded to the will of the people and have not been held accountable for their failure to protect America.

If the primary campaign issues for an elected official is over real immigration law enforcement I fully expect that Arpaio will be re-elected in November.

Supreme Court Hotline

This morning the Court issued some opinions and D.C. vs. Heller was not one of them. I'm learning that the court may even release Heller a few days later then Monday, June 23, 2008. Let's just hurry up and wait!

The Biggest Obama Gaffe Yet

I’ve never considered President George W. Bush very bright. There was a foul odor in the voting booth that caused me to hold my nose as I read the candidate’s names. I punched out my chad and left the polling place.

This coming election will bring even a stronger odor so I’m voting absentee this time. Bush is no genius but Obama is incredibly dumb.

With Americans in total shock at what they see at the gas pumps, the war between the tree huggers and the rest of us is over. 300,000,000 people in this country are facing massive inflation on everything we consume because of the price of fuel. That problem compounds our existing massive mortgage loan foreclosure crisis

Once John McCain came out and said it was time to drill here, Barack Obama shot from the hip with the same old Bolshevik talking point about saving the planet. The Bolsheviks should be smart enough to recognize that the environmental issues are not going to change because we drill on one part of the earth as opposed to others.

Obama accused McCain of flip-flopping on this issue and dug his heels in that he is opposed to oil exploration within the United States.

This is simple Obama would rather Americans pay extortionate prices to his Muslim friends that want us dead. Obama really put himself on the wrong side of this issue.

The New Sheriff In Town Wants Your Gun…

There’s a new Sheriff in Orange County, California and she’s vowed to review the concealed weapon permits issued by her deposed predecessor. Sandra Hutchens says she’ll yank all permits where she does not feel there’s a “good reason” for them.

Hutchens’ old boss L.A. County Sheriff Lee Baca never found a good reason to issue a permit in Los Angeles to anyone other than politicians and government bureaucrats. I expect Hutchens to revoke most of the permits issued and the local stalkers will read in the newspaper just who is no longer protected with a “legal” concealed weapon.

This is where common sense has to step in and civil disobedience needs to take over. The good citizens of Orange County need to ignore the Sheriff’s arbitrary power over their very own life and death. For the sake of the lives of your family simply carry your gun if you feel the need to do so with or without a permit. Don’t let some bimbo decide if your life and that of your family are worthy of protection outside of your home!

The Heller case is FIVE DAYS away from becoming the law of the land. I expect it will rewrite bans against the bearing of arms in the Bolshevik Republic of California.

Citizens of Orange County should tell their new Sheriff to pack her bags and get out of town, by sundown!
