Breitbart.com : \'Blow away\' text lands Muslim in Canada jail

Fri, 3 Feb 2012 22:17:03 +0000

How is it that a private conversation over text message got him arrested 3 days later? Who "turned him in" or was this some eavesdropping/wiretapping? I need more information but on its face this looks like wiretapping gone wrong. Now was this wiretapping done by the US or Canada? If this was the US then please explain how that got around the 4th Amendment...? The right of the people to be secure in their persons, houses, PAPERS, and EFFECTS, against unreasonable searches and seizures, shall not be violated, and no Warrants shall issue, but upon probable cause, supported by Oath or affirmation, and particularly describing the place to be searched, and the persons or things to be seized.

The Heritage Foundry : Obama Couldn't Wait: His New Christmas Tree Tax

Wed, 9 Nov 2011 02:11:16 +0000

Someone, anyone please tell me where in the Constitution that We the People, or the States, gave our Federal Government the power to tax us for the sake of Christmas tree image improvement. If the Big Christmas Tree Complex can not pay for or do not want to pay for their own marketing then it is suddenly the responsibility of the Federal Government? This is another ridiculous expenditure of our tax money!

The $90M can be balanced on the back of the overruns the new tunnel downtown will cost. What again are we going to spend on that tunnel to replace Alaska Way Viaduct? What was the cost again if we retrofitted or replaced the existing bridge? Kinda weird. This nanny State is so screwed. We spend borrowed money on projects we do not need, overspend on the ones we do and give money to those that do not earn it and will never try to while simultaneously taking money from those that do and waste it on programs that do not work. All of this provided by someone who is overpaid and under qualified representing a collective group that gets to write its own employment rules. And all of this while half the state (Eastern WA) gets no representation for what happens in this State because it all gets controlled not by Olympia but by Seattle. That is why we are suppose to be a Representative Republic and not a Democracy.

The police did the right thing yes. However what law did she break when she broke her own window? Just saying if I wanted to break every window in my house what business is it of the police. Once she pointed the gun at them all things change.... Glad non of the boys in blue got hurt.

You may be correct as far as the multiple tracks. I remember seeing a video years ago of a similar accident. A woman was standing next to the tracks waiting for a train to pass. Once the train passed she immediately started walking across the tracks. She was unaware that another train going in the opposite direction was heading her way as she stepped onto the second set of tracks. While it was clear she was hit me the camera angle did not show what happened to her once she left the camera shot (very short distance) while riding the front of the train. It was a very sad and preventable accident.

Breitbart.com : Explosion at Japan nuclear plant: live TV

Japan will be rebuilding for decades. Fallout to come to our shores? I live on the West Coast and am starting to worry. Do I need to invest in a Geiger counter and Iodine pills?

You are wrong on every point. Popular Science (or Mechanics) debunked all your "theories". I have softened steel to the point of almost melting in a camp fire, it was red hot and you can easily form it with a hammer. It used to be called a blacksmith..... the burning fuel was more than hot enough to soften steel then the weight of the floors above caused the collapse. Sorry I am way off topic with you. Go Jessie. While I do not agree with most of your politics it is about time someone stand up for our rights. I did not sign away my rights just to fly on a PRIVATE PLANE. (Airlines are not yet owned by the Gov.)

I think of her every time I drive by that spot on Mpl Vly Hwy ( a few times a week). They have now put up guard rails. Another case of police not caring. I should tell the story of what the police did and did not do when my wife's car was stolen; but this is not the time or place. I am glad to hear that she is still kicking.

Breitbart.com : Stuxnet worm rampaging through Iran: IT official

Why on earth are these critical systems even connected to "The Internet" anyways? You can not infect a machine not connected to the Internet. If you do "sneaker net" in something malicious (thumb drive or disk) it has no command and control from the external source. This lack of command and control may not pose a problem IF there is no preset "payload" and is only relying on external commands to "do something bad" you do not have a problem. I would also run a network monitor and KNOW exactly what should be on the network to pinpoint anything that should not be there. Network Access Control (NAC) from Sophos rings a bell here but I would have to look again at that solution. I wonder what/where the server is that it has been communicating with. Knowing that makes it very easy to block all traffic to/from that address.

Not to butt-in but what does dowachubub mean? I did a google search on "dowachubub definition" and got this "Did you mean: douchebag definition Top 2 results shown" then at the bottom of the page "Your search - dowachubub definition - did not match any documents. " Not to say you are being a douchebag, I am just asking. Please enlighten me if google can not help me.

Big Government : The Heat is On: Congressman's Office Says Constituent Calls Are 'Harassment'

Fri, 19 Mar 2010 17:18:32 +0000

Welcome to the club! I called my Congressman (Dave Reichert) in regard to "Cap-N-Trade" to find out if he read the full text of the bill. I called everyday asking the question but never getting an answer (the even sent me a canned letter that did not answer the question I asked) I was given a "single point of contact" (Russel) who would not answer. After several days of this they started transferring me to the Capital Police who informed me my "privilege to contact my rep by phone or email has been revoked" I asked for the law that gave them the power to revoke "my privilege" and was never given one. I have a RIGHT as a US citizen to be able to redress my government for grievances.... I kept calling until Dave's Chief Of Staff gave me the answer I was asking all along... BTW. Dave DID NOT READ THE BILL BEFORE HE VOTED ON IT!!!! After all this happened and I felt my constitutionally protected free speech had been abused I called the Justice Department (that went no where) and tried to file a complaint. It is nearly impossible (unless you are a minority or a woman) to get a complaint started. OUR GOVERNMENT AT WORK!!! If the do not read the bill did they read the Constitution?????

Breitbart.com : National vehicle history database goes live

Wed, 27 Jan 2010 07:13:57 +0000

I find it interesting that there is only ONE (Gamesta) comment (at the point I logged in to comment) that states the obvious. That is THE CONSTITUTIONAL NATURE of this database. The Federal Government was setup with 17 constitutional powers. The 9th and 10th amendments make if clear that if it is not in this (The US Constitution) document it is a STATE or INDIVIDUAL right (and responsibility) . So I ask you where in the US Constitution did I (or my State) give up MY inalienable right (or responsibility) to search out a used car and do the due diligence to find a "nice" one? I can not seem to find it...... but please help me out, I may be just to stupid, clinging to guns or religion or antipathy to people who aren't like me.... or maybe I am a SOVEREIGN MAN who will not be pushed around by MY PUBLIC SERVANTS any-longer. I call my Senators and Congressman all the time, just to hear someones head explode when I ask them "where in the Constitution do you have the power to vote or support (fill in the blank) law?" Usually you will get something like. I am sorry sir I can not answer that question. If I can have you contact information I will be happy to send you a response (canned letter that has nothing to do with your question and makes you feel like they are talking down to you or selling you a used car). They probably add you to another database of "people who bug us" . err... oh wait I saw that report also..... hummmm.. .... I do not think I will get audited this year..... We are a nation of laws built apon the foundation of the US Constitution. If the Federal Government wants to keep breaching that CONTRACT then there will be consiquences to their actions. The 2010 mid-term election is getting closer everyday and 2012 is not THAT far off.

KATU - Portland, OR : Apartment residents told to take down U.S. flags | KATU.com - News - Portland, Oregon | Local & Regi

Wed, 14 Oct 2009 18:27:03 +0000

Did not read all 900+ posts but here is my $0.02. H.R. 42: 109th Congress Freedom to Display the American Flag Act of 2005 ( http://www.google.com/search?q=H.R.+42%3A+109th+C... ) My cut version of the important part here.... To ensure that the right of an individual to display the flag of the United States on residential property not be abridged. A condominium association, cooperative association, or residential real estate management association may not adopt or enforce any policy, or enter into any agreement, that would restrict or prevent a member of the association from displaying the flag of the United States on residential property within the association with respect to which such member has a separate ownership interest or a right to exclusive possession or use. That should end that argument. Are we a nation of laws or a nation of men. No one is above the law. The cars are private property, ( separate ownership interest or a right to exclusive possession or use from above bill ) the apartment is breaking the law. It is very simple to my non-political correct mind. YOU DO NOT HAVE A RIGHT TO NOT BE OFFENDED BUT I HAVE A RIGHT TO FREE SPEECH. I do not care how diverse your community is, that does not give you the right to take away something I am proud of: MY AMERICAN HERITAGE! WE ARE A NATION OF LAWS and in this mans opinion self-evident truths and unalienable Rights!
