Jobs and Tax Tyranny Don’t Mix--We Must Choose Our Sides and Fight.

Washington, DC—I don’t know for sure what Barack Obama was thinking when he and his Socialist pals in Congress, bailed out very crooked bank, Wall Street firm and failed auto maker they could. Who knows who these clowns thought would pay for their new reckless runaway spending orgy?

After their destructive tactics we have no economic growth, no jobs, and a bankrupt nation with no hope.

So many American businesses saw the handwriting on the wall and fled Tax Tyranny that was getting more extortionate by the second.

Some so-called Americans want to find ways to force Americans to keep their businesses and jobs here. Historically tyranny creates refugees that are compelled to flee. This is exactly what’s happening.

America has become hostile and now threatens business instead of protecting its very life blood. The change to Socialism has always created refugees why should it be different here?

The American experiment of 1776 has run its course with the likes of illegal aliens, career Entitlement Zombies and the others that have invested nothing at all in this nation. When the freeloaders can out-vote the producers the producers can either flee or become slaves.

I don’t see a solution that ends without Civil War for America. History has already written this chapter so many horrible times before.

Some of the luckiest survivors in the world fled their nations before these things began to unfold.

Charging for Prison Visits Should be a Crime

Phoenix, AZ—There is a movement in the Legislature here to begin charging visitors $25.00 every time they visit an inmate. I call that cruel and unusual punishment and its downright stupid.

There is probably not a psychiatrist on the planet that would endorse this terrible idea. Cutting off inmates from the outside world and their families would make them even more dangerous than they are already.

Visitation is not a right but a privilege and is in and of itself a behavior management tool. Inmates that want to receive visits have no choice but to behave. Taking this management tool away will cost lives in the long run. Immediately this bureaucratic brain-fart will create more fiscal problems than it will solve.

Prison officials complain that they must conduct expensive background investigations on visitors for security reasons. They claim they are looking for a way to reduce costs. I can help them in this area a lot by suggesting they take advantage of new technology that would eliminate and reduce their costs significantly.

Skype.com is a free telecommunication site that allows even international video calls to be made for free. Sometimes just the distance that the prisons are from civilization is a real hardship on prisoner's loved ones. Skype.com would actually increase visits without requiring all of that labor-intensive screening, frisking and visitor crowd control.

Either the inmate is brought to a simple Ipad or the Ipad is brought to the inmate. The video call is made and they can visit as long as the prison will allow. Of course the prisons will want to take steps to insure the Ipads are not used for nefarious purposes. That’s easy to monitor. Additionally the audio from the visits can be collected and stored for prison investigative purposes.

I know of at least one inmate whose mother has to spend a significant amount of money to visit her inmate/child because she lives in Germany. Now that’s a hardship. Skype.com calls are free.

Let’s say for the sake of argument that it still costs money for the prisons to maintain the equipment. Charging the Skype.com prison visitor a small fee under $7.00 would prove to be much cheaper for prisoner’s families than paying current transportation cots with the high price of fuel these days.

The idea of punitive punishment for prison inmates will always be popular no matter how poorly these things are thought out.

Malaise and Depression is Hitting Obama Like a Brick in the Head

Washington, DC—He promised Hope and Change. Things have changed, but for the worse and his amateur Marxist methods have made things virtually hopeless.

Under Barack Obama we have more, not less war, a secret rather than transparent government and a full-scale Whitehouse war on our wallets and Liberty.

The hated Patriot Act has been expanded not reduced and the Obama Administration TSA thugs have been allowed to run wild. His Homeland Security Secretary, Janet Napolitano has not so quietly adopted many of the frightening methods used by the Stazi and Gestapo.

What began as a covert operation to supply a massive amount of guns to known Mexican and Central American criminals was exposed by whistle-blowing BATFE agents. Those agents became horrified when two American federal agents were murdered with those same guns. The body count related to Operation Gunwalker and Fast and Furious is still being tallied.

The motivation for the shocking criminality by the Whitehouse was to create a crisis of violence that would demonize American gun rights through a propaganda campaign. Obama has long favored amending our Bill of Rights, by signing a UN Civilian Gun Ban Treaty.

Obama actually told his friends at the Brady Violence Center he was working behind the scenes to facilitate gun bans. The Brady people were so giddy with excitement they spilled the beans about Obama’s stealth approach to gun control.

When anyone knowingly supplies a deadly weapon to a criminal and it’s used in a crime the person furnishing the weapon is always prosecuted for that crime whether it’s armed robbery or murder. Any day a special prosecutor will have to deal with that investigation and prosecution.

Local prosecutors in Arizona are certainly not precluded from presenting the facts to a Grand Jury and obtaining Indictments.

Obama’s worst political nightmare was well chronicled by Dr. Charles Krauthammer who said, “Obama Is President Zero - Zero Economic Expansion, Zero Jobs and Zero Ideas.”

I seriously doubt that Obama will be allowed to even finish his first term. Obama has proven to be a ruthless great divider. Obama’s lawlessness is about to finish his tortured presidency.

Approaching the Tenth Anniversary of 9/11 and All We’ve Accomplished was the Surrendering of Our Liberty…

We were already a Nation of Cowards and too frightened to allow passage into our government buildings, airports without suspending our Constitutional rights. Instead we search each other like criminals. We didn’t trust the pilots that we count upon to safely transport us with firearms to combat airplane hijackings.

Had we allowed the pilots their right as citizens to carry a gun or for that matter those disarmed sworn police officers that were passengers on two of the four planes 9/11 would have been just another day.

The TSA program and other “safeguards” will never work to prevent mass murder and mayhem committed by terrorists. The government’s “fix” has been intrusive, humiliating, and un-American. Despite massive and lavish efforts they have yet to stop a single terrorist event.

The massive amount of cash we must hand over to support these liberty stealing security programs has gone straight down the toilet along with our privacy and freedom.

None the less most Americans feel so good after an exhaustive groping by some unemployable slug working for the TSA. Anyone that thinks the TSA program can have any effect at all on terrorism is nothing less than a complete fool.

Terrorists by their nature seek heavily populated, soft targets. They simply sneak in killing and destroying during surprise attacks. Even if you could protect one or more venues terrorists will always find another one to inflict their horror.

Somehow Americans seem to think that terrorists need sophisticated or exotic weapons that are difficult to obtain. Gasoline and explosive fertilizer are cheap, virtually impossible to regulate and incredibly deadly.

Attacking a crowded shopping mall, convention center or tourist magnet is hardly a difficult challenge. No amount or searching, snitch programs or government efforts could stop a motivated terrorist.

On the other hand armed Americans with minimal training could better deal with terrorists as they commence an attack. Calling 911 and waiting for the “authorities” to act will bring help too little and too late.

The best example of government response to a terror attack was when two twisted teens attacked Columbine High School. Responding to numerous and desperate 911 calls the Jefferson County Sheriff’s Department sent their officers to parade around the school with the jackboots and bucket helmets until every last victim bled to death. The cops finally entered the school only after the two whackjobs took their own lives.

Had there been even one minimally trained and armed teacher, janitor or cafeteria worker in the school, lives could have been saved.

We have learned nothing about combating terrorism and have let politicians steal massive amounts our cash, along with our precious and hard won liberty.

I can’t help but despise people who willingly line up like helpless sheep and submit to anything the government tells them. I can’t help but think of how it took only a handful of Nazi guards to coral a thousand concentration camp inmates into the gas chambers.

Even more disgusting was the reality that other camp inmates would knowingly assist the Nazis commit mass murder rather than to fight for their own lives.

It’s really very simple once you study history enough to know that the greatest mass murderers on earth are always governments. Sooner or later every government in history turns on their own people.

The only way to insure survival is to ferociously resist any government attempt to take any liberty for any reason. The moment right to keep and bear arms, is suspended or eliminated you soon can expect to be on the receiving end of government terror.

There’s A New Kind of Television News. RIGHT THIS MINUTE Begins September 12

Phoenix, AZ—Television news has not changed much since it was pioneered by Edward R. Murrow in the 1950’s. It’s done now in color and with more video but little else has evolved. Today we are well into the information age however, things are finally changing as evidenced by at least one new show called, RIGHT THIS MINUTE.

The best brains I know in TV news have quietly put together their team that will explode RTM on the screens in more than 40 Cox, Scripps and Raycom stations from coast to coast.

This will be an exciting mix of social media, citizen journalists with only a dash of traditional reporting. They will bring you the latest news with stunning video from around the world in a daily one hour show.

News, entertainment happenings and those important events that change our lives will not escape RTM’s coverage. This show will change the way news is delivered.

I have had the pleasure to work with some of the incredibly talented people that are behind the curtain creating this groundbreaking project and I’m personally very excited for them. Magic Dust Television of Phoenix is out in front on this one.

Official Crimefile review of, THE DEBT

Los Angeles, CA—I refuse to write reviews about films that stink. I've seen far too many stinkers over the last several years. Today, I have a winner for you.

I don’t recall a bad film with Helen Miren or Tom Wilkenson. They are great actors that somehow cast in better films. The Debt is right there on top!

This is a terrific script brought to life by a superb ensemble cast. It’s a period piece that begins in 1966. This is ripped from the story or the infamous physician from Hell, Dr. Josef Mengele known as the Angel of Death (German: Todesengel). Mengele was a German SS officer and a physician inflicting horror at the Nazi concentration camp, Auschwitz-Birkenau.

In reality the fugitive Nazi was nearly captured a few times but always slipped away. Mengele died on February 7, 1979, in Bertioga, Brazil, where he accidentally drowned or possibly suffered a stroke while swimming in the Atlantic.

This film is loosely based on a fantasy Israeli Mossad Aldolph Eichman style kidnapping operation that takes place in East Berlin in 1966. It fast forwards to 1997 as we watch the young virile agents find themselves middle-aged.

The story is thrilling and deeply explores those thoughts we all have about going back in time and undoing past mistakes. Of course you can’t go back but can you sometimes repair things later in life? The thought process of the writers is amazing as they bounced back and forth through time. The film sports a dual cast playing the young and now aged characters.

The Nazi fugitive is masterfully played by Jesper Christensen. Oh what I’d give to have his acting chops!

There are five phenomenal writers attached to this film, Matthew Vaughn, Jane Goldman, Peter Straughan, Assaf Bernstein and Ido Rosenblum.

I say spend the bucks and enjoy yourself!

Chicago Police Operating Budget Gets Slashed by $190 Million?

Chicago, IL-- Police Supt. Garry McCarthy has been ordered to make catastrophic cuts into the police budget. I feel obligated to help him with suggestions.

Police bodyguards of Chicago’s current and former officials must end altogether. Sworn and trained city cops are not needed for this duty anyway. Those who believe they need that kind of protection, for a lot less can hire civilian security guards at their own expense. City officials are not royalty. Perhaps if they are afraid they should resign and drive cabs or work in convenience stores instead.

Police have been protecting Barack Obama’s empty Hyde Park home for nearly three years around the clock. If that must be done let the Secret Service handle it. It would be far cheaper for the city to purchase his home and find him a new one if and when he returns.

There is really no other solution here but to end this perk for good. Even the Mayor, Aldermen and Superintendent of Police should be capable enough to commute to work like everyone else.

The aldermen have the coveted city enforced Second Amendment right to arm themselves for self-defense. Perhaps they should arrange to get some training at one of the newly authorized firing ranges.

End all resources dedicated to vice enforcement except those in place that are designed to protect children from exploitation.

Misdemeanor cannabis possession should never result in booking. Complaints and release should be the standard enforcement. That alone will all but end cannabis enforcement because cops won’t bother to write those citations.

Any misdemeanor offense where the officer feels the peace is not endangered should be resolved with a complaint and release rather than booking.

That will result in far fewer arrests and the massive amount of court time they consume.

Reinvent the status of light duty to utilize the skills of officers that can perform limited functions like manning the communications center, call back and desk duties.

I can remember a uniformed, sworn officer with both of his legs amputated working in the communications center in the 1960s. He was thrilled to continue on in a place where he felt useful and needed. Today he’d be forced to stay home and collect money. I also think he’d have gone to an early grave as a result.

It’s time to end the practice of spying on officers suspected of living outside the city.

The city should stop the redundant and unnecessary function of gun registration. It never solves crimes and the Supreme Court has ruled twice that felons are exempt from filling out registration forms because it violates their rights against self-incrimination. I suspect that the city will be forced to return all the fees they unlawfully collected from people engaging in constitutionally protected activity of keeping or bearing arms.

The city should also end their unwinnable efforts to defend city gun ordinances in court.

Video teleconferencing should be used whenever possible to reduce wasted time in commuting and unnecessary fuel usage.

John Wilkes Booth Came to the Aid of his Country

Washington, DC—He was labeled as the devil but was he really just an American patriot? One thing for sure John Wilkes Booth (May 10, 1838 – April 26, 1865) was the victim of so much revisionist history by writers with an agenda to wrongfully canonize that despot, Abraham Lincoln as a saint.

We all know this 27 year-old prominent stage actor ambushed Lincoln at Ford’s Theater. Unlike the others that either assassinated or made attempts on the lives of our presidents Booth was no deranged loser. He was bright, popular and talented. Booth was driven by the massive suffering of a struggling of his nation that was trying to break free from a brutal Union.

The revisionists all want to sell us that bill of goods that the Civil War was all about slavery. Slavery was on its way out for a multitude of reasons especially with the invention of the cotton gin. Cotton growers needed more people to pick cotton but slavery was actually much more trouble than is was worth. Hiring freed slaves as cheap labor was certainly a better alternative. They had to feed and house the slaves anyway. History shows us that after the slaves were freed many thousands opted to continue on as employess of their former masters. Soon more advances in technology stole most of the cotton worker's jobs.

The war was really about iron fisted Union rule and later the sudden suspension of the Constitution by a lawless Abraham Lincoln. The real issue was one of state’s rights for local control. The Lincoln Administration was un-American and monstrous as they shut down newspapers and simply jailed their critics without trial.

Back then slavery not withstanding Americans enjoyed freedom like never before. Union corruption and political greed became a serious threat to liberty as an ever increasing federal government stepped up their tyrannical rule. The southern states resisted the tyranny and the result was a total bloodbath when the North began to punitively deal with the resistance.

I’m one of those that believe that the war was completely avoidable by the Union simply respecting the rights of the states. American people could vote with their feet and every state would have to compete for and attract the most productive citizens.

Waging war on secessionist states brought unparalleled carnage and finally the cruel and sadistic burning of the south by Union troops. This savagery scarred the very soul of sympathizers like Booth.

The plot to kidnap Lincoln went wrong and killing him was much easier than taking him prisoner. Booth is only guilty of doing too little too late. Killing Lincoln was more of an act of revenge because the war seemed to be over and Union dominance would continue.

Was it really booth that was shot in that northern Virginia barn? Did they foolishly trust the identification of Booth by his surviving family members? Identification of another man’s corpse would certainly insure the escape and survival of this proud southern family’s now infamous son.

The troops had strict orders to take booth alive. Had they obeyed orders, I wonder what grotesque torture they would have used on Booth in order to pry the names of his co-conspirators out of him?

The Union needed closure and heralding the death of booth along with that sham military tribunal to cinch the killing of every arrested conspiracy suspect gave them what they wanted.

In the end Booth acted for what he knew to be for the good of his country.

Cops’ dealing with curbside photographers is just another learning experience.

Los Angeles, CA—Most veteran cops never got training on handling this situation in the academy. There are from time to time informal station discussions and most of those involve creative methods of confiscating cameras and arresting the photographers. Generally it’s best to ignore the photographers other than to make sure you have the best evidence that will support your reasonable conduct.

We all hate the idea of wise guys with cell phone cameras that want to show cops in the worst possible light. They seem to be everywhere.

The First Amendment allows anyone to gather visual, audio material, make notes and broadcast or otherwise publish what they wish. There are legitimate private property issues and of course issues arise when the events occur in places where there is a reasonable expectation of privacy.

On the street where you are enforcing codes, making arrests or aiding people in distress capturing video and audio is absolutely constitutionally protected activity. That is as long as you’re not being somehow hindered from your duty.

Because the cameras are everywhere today you’d be a fool to make a bogus arrest or use excessive force. Police sometimes must use physical force as they are trained. Of course some officers manage to get compliance with polite requests and others are prone to more masculine and dramatic ways to assert their authority.

The cameras can either be your best friend or worst enemy. I know cops that have prayed for some video to somehow surface that would prove their reasonable conduct. The sad truth is the lies of citizens have cost many a cop his career and pension. I have seen that happen with my own eyes.

I want you to know that I’m never without a video camera and will use it whenever possible to record professional cops for this blog. I have no interest in capturing video that shows cops in a poor light. I’m learning how to deal with cops so they don’t fear or become annoyed with my efforts. I have to count on their patience and professionalism as they must with mine. So far there have been no problems, just a few questions.

I would be thrilled if my video could save a career or at least get some outstanding officer special recognition for a job well done. The last thing I want is to embarrass some cop doing his job. So when you see me out there please cut me some slack.

You must learn from the mistakes of others that have made creative but bogus arrests for crimes like eavesdropping. You are aware of the camera and you also have the ability to simply not donate your voice for recording. Reliance on that kind of basis for an arrest may cost you dearly before it’s over.

Many people with cameras are fulltime news employees or contractors. I gather video for television news routinely but rarely jump out of those news vans and live trucks. My news video cannot generally be posted here on the blog for legal reasons.

In short get used to the cameras because they are here to stay as long as we maintain a free nation.

Here is an ACLU video that shows two scenes. The first is wonderful. Three officers make an arrest of someone violently resisting. They use minimum force and nobody is injured. Things however went wrong as they arrested the cell phone camera man.

The second video shows one officer giving jabs and punches to a prone subject also resisting. I really can’t judge from the video whether the force was excessive but once the fact of the arrest unfold it may all come clear. The cell phone cameraman was arrested in the second event. Will that cameraman’s arrest lead to allegations of evidence tampering or covering up excessive force? We all know the answer to that one.

In both cases arresting the cell phone cameramen was anything but productive. The reality may bring disgrace, unemployment and a nasty civil judgment against some working cop.

Here is the Opinion:
Court Opinion of Recording Police in Public

Drunken Dad Throws his Seven Year-Old Son Off of a Cruise ship

Newport beach, CA- Orange County Sheriff’s spokesman. Jim Amormino told a shocking story of 35-year-old Sloane Briles hitting and then throwing one of his children into the ocean off of a cruise ship. Witnesses said that Briles was arguing with a female companion and that argument ended with the assault on the little boy.

Briles soon jumped into the water himself in an attempt to rescue the boy but several passing boaters had already had intervened and one of them pulled the boy to safety. The child was reportedly uninjured but shaken-up by the attack.

Responding Sheriff’s officers had to subdue the combative Briles who was said to be intoxicated. Briles was booked on various charges and later released on bail pending his appearance in court.

Why are TSA Screeners Showing up at Police Funerals?

Chicago, IL—These days when a cop dies in the line of duty, the TSA pays their passenger and baggage screeners to attend the funeral as “members of the law-enforcement Family.”

They show up with black bands on their badges as they wear police style uniforms. TSA workers are not law-enforcement, nor do they have similar duties or any of the training. They are non-sworn civilians, who are marginally qualified to inspect the soiled underwear of air passengers.

Adding to this waste of our tax dollars is the sad truth that TSA workers have stolen guns from cops that entrusted their service weapons to them during routine travel.

If some TSA workers are so moved to attend a police hero’s funeral they should do this on their own time and without their uniforms.

If TSA workers want to become police officers they are free to do that but the vast majority can’t qualify because of inability to pass intelligence tests, background investigations and psychological screening. TSA workers have nothing what-so-ever in common with cops.

The sad truth is that the TSA workers are nothing more than part of a federal “jobs” program for the unemployable. They are so reminiscent of a horrible time in German history where undesirables were given brown shirt uniforms and encouraged to assist local police by a new federal, Nazi government. Even back then the professional German police all despised the brown shirted pretenders.

Understandably most cops have a very low opinion of TSA screeners and don’t want them at their funerals.

Billing The Drug War as Way to Save Lives was a Big Lie

Washington, DC—They warned us that without a war on drugs our children would all be sticking themselves with dirty needles and dying young from overdoses. That scare tactic worked very well and the people manufacturing and peddling narcotics got very wealthy.

Along with the drug dealers, government contractors, prosecutors, judges, cops, corrupt politicians, drug treatment contractors and defense lawyers got really rich. That does not take into account the corruption by the so-called, good guys.

The artificially high price of narcotics is keeping criminals on both sides of the Drug War incredibly wealthy.

They billed the drug War as a life saver but just ask the families of the thousands murdered simply because we created, fertilized and perfected narcotics commerce, what they think.

If narcotics could be sold without restrictions they’d cost no more that sugar tea or coffee. The profits would diminish and put all the drug warriors out of business the very day the prohibition ended.

Contrary to what we’ve been told legalization will reduce, not expand experimentation with drugs by our children. The strongest attraction to narcotics experimentation is the fact that they are the forbidden fruit of our age. It’s only natural for humans to resist society’s rules.

In the meantime deadly drug violence will continue along with an endless supply of cash to both sides to the endless and unwinnable Drug War. The only war won so far was the one against our battered Bill of Rights.

How Big City Politicians Incite Fear and Loathing against their Own Cops

Chicago, IL—Former Mayor Richard M. Daley’s tyrannical rule of Chicago endangered the lives of cops. How so you may ask? Daley built an economic wall between citizens and cops thorough his extortionate traffic fines.

In the corrupt greed that financed as much as a $1billion in unneeded public works projects like endless miles of dangerous, traffic snarling concrete planter boxes generated campaign contributions from the contractors.

I don’t need to tell Chicagoans about taxpayer flight in avoidance of Tax Tyranny. The reality is depressing to say the least.

The shady parking meter fiasco along with those mercenary fines, have punished every working citizen of Chicago. Imagine trying feed a family during these difficult times. That as you collect parking tickets because the politicians are ever increasingly creative in their zeal to trap you into various violations. Soon your car gets booted, towed and you’re pushed well beyond the breaking point.

Everyone automatically associates this extortion program with the police. That’s even if its civilians not cops writing the tickets. The cops are the hammer the city always uses to victimize the public.

In the old days the local courts had a policy if dismissing virtually every ticket issued if the recipient bothered to show up and contest the citation. That was a PR program designed to protect those who could least afford these fines. That program was ended long ago and the somewhat friendly courts are places that citizens must fear today.

The most serious problems are in the African-American communities. They are the most impoverished and handing them a citation is just not the same as for wealthy folks that can easily pay for private parking at the rate of $35.00 per day.

Of course it’s the police that are required to be the ultimate extortion agents and their enforcement activities are viewed as racial profiling and hate. Of course the cops that don’t do as their commanders demanded face punishment for not citing everyone for absolutely everything possible.

The only way the City of Chicago can survive is to end the extortion. They have not figured out how to build a wall around the Windy City with guards to keep taxpayers from fleeing. The cancer of Tax Tyranny must be eradicated and taxpayers need to see Chicago as a place to prosper or Chicago’s magnificent buildings will soon be vacant.

Instead of being respected, cops are feared like any mob collection agent. Cops presently are not viewed as being there to protect the citizens but to rob them at every opportunity. I don’t think that kind of policy and perception improves the quality of life anywhere.

Mayor Rahm Emanuel can simply plod on making the same mistakes as his recent predecessors. On the other hand he could surprise us all as a great Mayor that returned Chicago to being a great place to live, work and raise children. Imagine all the room for free parking that could have been saved without the hated concrete planter boxes.

A great place to begin a good faith effort is by reducing fines, parking fees and taxes by half.

Reality Television Exposes the Sad State of American’s Collective Intelligence

Los Angeles, CA—I’m beyond sick of hearing about the losers made into televisions icons through reality television. Crap like Big Brother, Jersey Shore and Keeping Up with the Kardashians has encouraged the ignorance and total degeneration of our culture.

Those bubble-butts Snooki and Kim are the new role models for young American girls. Here the bar for an American role model has been lowered below sewer level.

The role models we promote should be educated, talented and driven to excellence. Instead they have showcased these pathetic losers that could never support themselves without wealthy parents, a pimp or a lucrative television contract from some low-brow, voyeuristic, reality television producer.

I dumped my Cable TV company well over a year ago choosing to get my entertainment from various internet sources.

The most frightening thing about Reality television is that the millions of pitiful viewers of this programming are allowed to vote. It’s so easy to understand how all these thieves, thugs and extortionists are elected to Congress and the Whitehouse.

Drew Peterson well into his third year behind bars with no trial in sight

Joliet, IL—Gadfly Will County Prosecutor James Glasgow could not find a scintilla of evidence that implicates Drew Peterson in a crime. Peterson has been suspected in the disappearance of his fourth wife and the death of his estranged third spouse. That case was ruled an accident but reclassified years later when the fourth wife vanished.

Peterson has become a very unpopular man especially with middle-aged women. Peterson’s seems to move on to younger and prettier women rather than to watch an unappreciative wife get old and unattractive. That alone makes him worse than a murderer in some people’s eyes. That however does not make him a killer.

Glasgow’s zeal found fertile political hay in getting the so-called "Drew Peterson Law" passed by the Illinois Legislature that would allow gossip and hearsay testimony. Glasgow hopes to get the self-serving testimony admitted in Peterson trial by people seeking to cash in if Peterson is convicted.

The Illinois Legislature is well known for having more intellectually and ethically challenged members than almost anywhere. These dim bulbs passed the law that has now been challenged by of all people, James Glasgow. The trial court has refused to bend to Glasgow’s demands and the trial was put off indefinitely as the issues and Glasgow’s loss grind through the higher courts.

The punitive bail of $20 Million has kept Peterson, a career Bolingbrook, IL cop with over 30 years of honorable service behind bars since a Grand Jury was polluted with the hearsay material and returned a murder indictment.

After losing in the trial court and the Court of Appeals, Glasgow has now filed for review before the Illinois Supreme Court. That action could delay resolution for another full year.

Peterson has never been convicted of anything at all. That includes a totally bogus charge that Peterson possessed an illegal weapon. That weapon was Peterson’s carbine he used to protect the citizens of Bolingbrook as a SWAT team member. The court dismissed that charge that was nothing more than an abusive form of harassment.

Glasgow has proven he’s the Mike Nifong of the Midwest with this malicious prosecution he hopes will win him votes. The citizens of Will County need to remember Glasgow placed his political posture above the law and can be counted upon to do this again whenever it suits his purposes. You may be his next victim!

The latest release Motion:

Motion for Release of Drew Peterson - Supreme Court (Signed)[1]

California’s Real Live Horror Show is About to Begin

Los Angeles, CA—The Golden State has spent all of its gold and is billions in debt over reckless empire building. That as they opened the doors to millions of illegal aliens they’ve turned into Entitlement Zombies.

There is already a huge medical care crisis here. Thousands of business fled from California’s tax tyranny taking needed jobs with them. Of course the uninsured and unemployed have been left behind.

California has one of the most lenient criminal justice systems anywhere. Before the courts will send criminals away to a prison they need to rack up as many as five felony convictions.

California’s prisons are so overcrowded that the courts have ordered the release of some 60,000 inmates. The deadline is rapidly approaching and the hardened criminals being unleashed will easily outnumber cops by a significant margin.

Even if these convicts wanted to get productive employment and go straight they’re unemployable and will face the reality of no jobs in an already depressed economy.

They will be releasing the first 9,000 and on the average we can expect three felonies per convict each day. The additional beatings, stabbings and shootings will shutdown the already overloaded hospitals.

The most dangerous counties in the state are the same ones that refuse to issue firearm carry permits to law-abiding citizens. You don’t have to accept this tyranny since the Supreme Court as recently ruled twice (Heller and McDonald) that the keeping and bearing arms is constitutionally protected activity.

California’s citizens need to either flee for their lives or stand their ground to seriously deal with an army of dangerous criminals.

My advice is to take the following seven steps.

1. Rethink security for your home and businesses with the understanding police either can’t or won’t respond to burglar alarms. That means you’ll need stronger locks and reinforced entryways.
2. Get professional training to use firearms and of course adequate firearms and ammunition. You will have to simply ignore the unconstitutional laws that forbid you to carry a firearm for self-defense out of necessity. By the way necessity is a valid defense in all 50 states to disobey certain laws.
3. Hire a licensed security expert to conduct a security audit for your home and business.
4. Don’t rely on alarms or cameras since they never stop determined criminals.
5. Raid your animal shelter for their biggest dogs. They need to be rescued and now they can rescue you too. Dogs are far more reliable and loyal than humans. Treat them well and they will protect you, your business and family for sure.
6. Keep your property well lit at night.
7. Women and children should not walk anywhere alone. Stay as far away as you possibly can from troubled neighborhoods.

The First Amendment, Pharmaceutical Companies and Snake Oil

You wonder why drug companies charge so much for the medicine we need to consume in order to live. There is the research, the manufacturing and the endless marketing that drives up the cost up and out of sight.

In the past the drug companies kept their marketing activities where it belonged. They sent samples and advertisements to our physicians that are specifically educated to determine when to alter the chemistry we need in order to treat what ails us.

Those days are long gone as we are bombarded with drug commercials we can’t buy over the counter. They want us to nag our own doctors to prescribe this crap to us.

I’m sure you’ve all noticed that an expensive drug commercial bombarding the airwaves for more than a year morning, noon and night. Then that’s followed up by law firm’s commercials soliciting clients that have been harmed by the same crap no longer being advertised. This seems to happen again and again.

We can’t force the drug makers to stop bombarding us with these costly commercials. We can however complain to the broadcasters that the snake oil folks are killing us with bad medicine that’s way overpriced. We can tell them medicine choices are the province of the medical community and pushing this snake oil on the general public is morally wrong.

Broadcasters have their own troubles finding anyone to buy commercial time these days. I just wonder why they must be part of a snake oil conspiracy killing us.

Obama Threw His Supporters Under the Bus!

Washington, DC—America’s poor needed jobs, not bailouts for every crooked bank, Wall Street money changer and failed automaker. The hundreds of billions went straight off-shore to their own secret retirement plans and no jobs were created. This happened while Barack Obama had nearly absolute power over both houses of Congress and could get any wish granted.

Americans disheartened by those horribly expensive, undeclared and deadly wars wanted them to end. These folks demanded the impeachment of George W. Bush over his prosecution of these wars. All hopes for the end of these wars have been dashed as Obama has expanded this unhealthy and unholy prosecution instead.

As for Barack Obama, his now red-faced supporters are beginning to quietly express their disappointment of his failure. They are now apologizing for his ineptitude and naïve incompetence. They are starting to discover that some of Obama’s detractors were correct when they called him an empty suit.

Imagine how quickly our economy would have turned around if Obama had bailed out the taxpayers instead of the crooks and parasites? Imagine if Obama put into a place real tax relief for employers that would keep Americans working, consuming goods and services?

Obama entered the Presidential election as an unknown, tall dark man with a great smile and an over-worked teleprompter. The voters did not really know him. What they did know is that George W. Bush had disappointed us for eight long years. Hope and Change sounded good and many voters felt anyone at all would be better than Bush. Now these voters are suffering from Buyer’s remorse.

What are Obama and his secret Czar Cabinet, shadow government’s plans for us? So far “The Chosen One” has been beyond a disappointment. It can and will only get worse as our failing nation polarizes more than ever before in our lifetimes.

Those like me on the Right view Obama’s actions as sinister and Treasonous. I remain convinced he set out to destroy our economy and replace our form of government with Iron Fisted Socialism that I don’t think even my ultra-Liberal friends would ever want. This is bolstered by Obama’s lie that this would be the most transparent government in history. We got the exact opposite of what he promised in that regard.

One thing for sure is that we have a total mess now. We are floating the seas aimlessly like the Flying Dutchman with no viable plan to prevent a world-wide depression that will begin right here.

We must rid our Whitehouse of this cancer before the 2012 election. America needs to suspend taxes and get the economy’s machinery moving again. There is no other option.

Los Angeles TV Reporters Failed Big Time on Homicide Case

Hollywood, CA—Friday night at the Hollywood and Vine subway station Jesse Garay, 59, of North Hollywood was stabbed to death. This disturbing story was observed by two witnesses that have cooperated with the police and also gave media interviews. One witness is a music reporter for the L.A. Times.

The stories the witnesses tell is that the dead man was assaulting a younger Asian fellow with a chain. The victim was trying to fend off blows with his skate board and finally drew a small pocket knife and stabbed his attacker.

It makes little difference who said what to who or even who started the altercation when Garay began chasing the victim with a chain using a knife or even a firearm for self-defense was justified.

Garay fell mortally wounded and the victim was covered in blood. An interesting fact is that at least two strangers urged the victim to change his bloody shirt and flee. The victim followed that advice and has not been seen since.

It is the weekend and the general assignment reporters working are somewhat young and inexperienced but they proceeded to libel the victim terribly. They redundantly called the event a murder and reversed the roles of victim and suspect even after hearing from eye witnesses.

What they left out of the story is that a crime victim who uses deadly force or for that matter anyone under the police spotlight has every right to avoid cops and to remain silent.

What’s worse is the little news bunnies could have accessed the L.A. County Superior Courts criminal database and enlightened their viewers with the dead assailant’s criminal history or lack of it.

At least one LAPD spokesman said that it would be up to a jury to determine the validity of a self-defense claim. That remark was ignorant since the investigation belongs to the L.A. County Sheriff’s Department. Police say they have surveillance video but have not released it yet.

The fact is the cops want to talk to the victim but no competent defense lawyer would allow any client to do that. The victim needs to continue to law very low.

Self-defense cases don’t have to result in arrest and if they do a prosecutor should have the sense and decency not to destroy a victim’s life by putting him on trial needlessly. Imagine being in jail, waiting for a year or three for your day in court. Your job, home, car and wife and children may not be there when you are finally cleared.

The victim is not a murder suspect. The event is not a murder and the reporters did not bother to do their job and investigate the assailant.

Perhaps it might have been a good idea for the reporters to interview a criminal defense lawyer that could clear up some confusion about self-defense.

Under the circumstances some police PIO may call the victim a suspect. If that was the case the reporter should have asked the PIO to clarify whether the they intend to arrest the victim for a crime or simply interview him as a victim/witness.

I purposely am not going to single out and embarrass these reporters. Hopefully they will follow up with some corrective reports.

Update: 24 Aug 12 L.A. County Sheriff’s deputies located and arrested Gen Sim, 33 in connection with the stabbing death last week in a Hollywood subway train. The claim of self-defense is no small issue in this case. There will be no booking photos released to the media, until after an expected line-up is conducted by police to avoid contaminating the identification process.

Sheriff’s records show that Sim has been booked three time in jail within the last month for unrelated allegations. Let’s see if the local newsbunnies flush out the facts this time.

Cops, Criminals, Prosecutors and Wrongful Convictions

Chicago, IL—Too many Americans lose sight of the real function of our Criminal Justice System. It’s not about actual guilt, but simply guilt that must be proven beyond a reasonable doubt. If we cannot prove an allegation the accused must go free. That means that there are always going to be some people that get away with murder.

We seem to forget that these days only 35% of homicide cases are solved by arrest. Just three decades ago we solved over 80% of the homicides by arresting, convicting and punishing those suspects we grew to hate.

I hope you’re wondering why the rate of homicide solution has fallen so low? Technology like DNA, surveillance cameras, data trails we leave with our credit, debit and even those Link or EBT cards handed out to freeloaders, clear suspects routinely. The new technology has eliminated thousands of misidentifications by mistaken or deceitful witnesses.

The drastic drop in the solution rate for murder in the last three decades makes it abundantly clear we destroyed many thousands of innocent lives who would have been cleared by modern technology.

Suspects usually come from a special class of people. They live on the fringe of society and tell lies with incredible ease. They have issues with drugs, alcohol and often mental illness. Sometimes they have well-earned and extensive criminal histories. They are the, “Usual Suspects”. Additionally they generally have really bad attitudes and are only to egger to express their hatred of police.

If you take a usual suspect and place him near a crime you can have a perfect storm that may snare the wrong man. This is doubly bad since the actual criminal get’s the euphoric experience of knowing he pulled off a perfect crime.

We all think we have a special instinct to know if a suspect committed the crime. There is no scientific basis for that anymore than the ability to predict which horse will win a race. When cop’s guilt detection instinct kicks in and is reinforced by other cops bad things happen.

Prosecutors jump on the bandwagon and lives of innocents are destroyed even if the accused is somehow later cleared. It’s no secret prosecutors can indict a ham sandwich with ease. While waiting one to three years to get their day in court those later declared innocent have lost their jobs, homes, cars and families.

Getting out of jail with only the clothes that were on your back the day they were arrested is beyond miserable. Imagine when they take suspect’s clothes to the crime lab to cut out samples and jail him in a white paper suit. They open the door and let the now destitute but cleared suspect out wearing that. It really happens.

We all want to see the guilty removed from society and punished. To do that, we need clairvoyants and mind readers. It’s not going to happen at least during our lifetimes.

We can’t help justice by placing our thumbs on the scale. Today we have the avenging “Victim’s Rights” angels of True Crime Gossip Television that will tell us all who is guilty. They are the leaders of today’s lynch mobs. They are at their zenith as they castigate a jury for not convicting someone they hate like Casey Anthony in Florida.

What we need to do is gather real evidence and let an unbiased jury weigh the facts as they exist. We must not be offended or angered if the suspect is freed. By their nature real criminals always reoffend and will soon be in another spin of the Criminal Justice Wheel of Fortune.

The system is not perfect but our own freedom and liberty is endangered when we tamper with the system of justice our founding fathers gave us with their blood.

The Gestapo and the SS dealt with crime for 12 long and notorious years in Germany. They had a “wonderful 100% conviction rate”. Right now in the USA we only have an 80% conviction rate in our courts. We can always raise that to 100%, but at what cost?
