Well just when you thought it was safe to go back to visiting national monuments somebody breaks out the hardware and gets into a shootout.

In this case the alleged shooter is a guy named James W. Von Brunn ( you can check out his picture/photograph here .

He’s a reported white supremacist and somehow dude was able to sneak a rifile into the museum. I’ll bet if he was a black guy he wouldn’t have made it through the front door carrying an umbrella.

Anyhow, he supposedly shot a guard and then was shot. News is still sketchy but let’s hope no one was killed. Von Brunn being a decorated veteran of WWII is not the kind of person one would expect to do something this evil. His political views are extreme but he does have the right to freedom of expression however opening fire at a museum with youngin’s around is either evil and/or insanity to the second power.

This kind of behavior can’t be tolerated and such actions should not be heralded with glory. If indeed Von Brunn committed this heinous act he needs some form of attention to his mental faculties.

Thank goodness the guards at the museum were alert enough to stop him before things got worse.

We need to support our security forces in the U.S. from the school guard to the mall security guard to our law enforcement and military. No telling what other menaces lurk amongst us.

Okay so I grew up in the news business. Actually started at the Gannett News Service and worked with them for about 8 years straight.

I’ve been now working with online news services for over 12 years. The problem with the news industry is that in general they’re delusional about reality. When we told them about the value of the internet we were scoffed at and they were late taking advantage of the value of the web. Other people came along like Matt Drudge from Drudgereport.com, Jeff Rense from Rense.com, Art Bell from Coasttocoastam.com did follow up and now are huge. They’re the most popular along with the likes of Alex Jones and the rest of the alternative rebel media but it shows that you’ve got to be on your toes, not bigotted and take charge when you should.

Now the advertising dollars are now all over the web. Actually the commercials on the internet are better than the ones on mainstream tv. We’re becoming a web based society and moving away from television and newspapers. Yes there’s a class when it comes to picking up that newspaper but it’s starting to look primitive because our phones, toys, watches, jewelry can carry news from every part of the galaxy for pennies and we have the option to print.

The news industry is getting it’s ass kicked because they laid down in bed with the same intellects who have ruined this country and world. It’s like that old saying if you lay down with dogs you’ll get fleas and believe you me the news industry has got some fleas and then some. Instead of following after the banking monsters who’ve ruined this world for over 100 years they laid down and now they’re paying the price. The people of the world don’t trust mainstream news anymore except the weather and sports. Things they themselves can validate with a glance.

While the greed of evil doers wasted our world’s economy over the past 8 years the mainstream news industry didn’t follow up. Now it’s biting them in the ass and that is dangerous to us all. It may be the dues coming back at the Devil and he’s got to hock his pitchforks. That’s good news, however the standards of journalism are at stake here. How will we define them? Alternative news sites can be just as irresponsible as mainstream news sites. Now I think the difference will be the public’s ability to send in feedback with facts. We’re now dealing with journalism with instant validation. It’s tough to push an agenda for the big banking cabals when everyone this side of the Sun can come in from the outfield with a fact or reference that would normally be occluded.

The power of the press is now in the hands of the people and I think they’ll do a good job of policing themselves as the founding fathers had intended.

According to the Times Online a young Florida man took sleeping pills live on the internet thus committing suicide. The link is here.

For many years I worked for America Online in security. We had to police the chatrooms and boards for people who would be depressed and announced they intended to commit suicide. Luckily we never lost anyone and attentitive eyes and responsible management led to this success. I do recall one incident when while working on one of the paranormal forums a fellow told me about his group of friends he’d not heard of. We chatted for a while and lo and behold suddenly they were on tv. They were called Heaven’s Gate. I had kept this chap on the line and the horror story of that cult came to. When you encounter anyone making a suicide claim you should immediately inform the authorities. If you can find the location of the person and notify their local law enforcement agency. Every moment counts.

Gee Whiz! Barack Obama won the battle for the office of President of the United States.

He just didn’t win but he stomped a mudhole in John McCain’s butt and walked it dry. The final tally isn’t in but with 300+ Electoral College votes and an assload of popular votes the country basically got together last night and said ” We’re tired of the same ol’ bullshit, let’s get this show on the right road. “.

I watched last night as state after state fell to Obama’s influence. I saw how die hard evangelical states fell back toward their own evil ways and how some stood up to be accounted for progression.

Will Obama make a great president? Well after the piss pitiful example left by George W. Bush even Bullwinkle the Moose could make a presidency look glamorous in comparison.

The world needs some healing after the last 8 years of buffoonery and greed. Will Obama bring that healing? I’d say it’ll be a major start in a new direction the world hasn’t seen yet. The keyword here is “Justice”. I’m quite sure the majority of cops and military supported McCain because it’s that “John Wayne White Hat” mentality that permeates these people and that mentality has led us to economic ruin and disaster. Criminals have run rampant over the world for almost a century now and we the people are just sick and tired of it.

Watch crime drop like a freakin’ rock once Obama gets into office and establishes himself.

That’s when law enforcement and the military had better buck up like they did when FDR was president and when Dwight D. Eisenhower was president. Those men knew how to lay down the law and evil doers feared them.

Where do you fit in? Well this time the good guys are going to gain a foothold and this time we’ll make sure that no other stooges like George W. Bush and Dick Cheney will ever get into the election process again.

Seems fair enough to me.

OJ SIMPSON TO APPEAL GUILTY VERDICTS

So OJ gets sooooo busted and slammed for his stupid ass wanna be a cop and go after his sports memorabilia stunt in Las Vegas last year.

The jury delivered this shit to him exactly 13 years after he was found not guilty of killing his ex-wife and her friend.

Sounds kind of ironic doesn’t it? Sounds kind of orchestrated even more.

OJ is his worst enemy and he fell in with this last shenanigan of his where he and some armed pals of his decided they were gonna bogart OJ’s lost memorabilia or stolen as OJ asserts. Normal people just call the police. No, OJ must’ve thought he was in a movie until the judge read the verdict.

He faces life in prison but what gets me is OJ got busted for robbing his own shit but the guys who run those big banks we the citizens are forking over $700 billion for are running around scott free dining on lobster and playing golf at their clubs that cost $1 million to join.

You figure this one out. Was it revenge against OJ for being OJ? Was it the race card or celebrity card? Was it just the fact that taking things from other people at gunpoint is indeed a crime in the United States even if it does take place in Las Vegas?

Some, none, or all of the above.

We’ll find out at the next trial and if it turns out the jury was flakey I feel sorry for em’ down the road. Why? Because then OJ will have the opportunity to sue Nevada for this shit and walk away a multimillionaire.

If Obama wins this election it’s a given he and Biden will go after Bush, Cheney, and everyone they’ve ever hung out with.  How do they avoid this?

Executive Clemency.

Here’s how it’s gonna work.   Seeing the groundswell to prosecute him for 100’s of criminal acts, Bush will step down for some reason or another and Cheney, now President will pardon him.  Cheney will then bow down moving his VP pick up to President ( probably Condoleeza Rice ) who will then pardon Cheney.

I know it feels like one of those conspiracy theories but you know what, when people said George W. would get us into a war, screw up the economy, and a dozen other things that have come to pass, those people were called conspiracy theorists then too.

Shows to go ya.

So this would be a sweeet move by the Republicans.  They would walk away with Bush and Cheney untouchable and they would have Condoleeza Rice as President for a few weeks establishing not only the first woman president but the first African American president taking away from Obama’s thunder.

See, I went to “Evil Mastermind University” and that’s how I come up with all this stuff.

It’s way past the time to start some shit about this nonsense. Bailout of the big financial institutions but you the citizen left to hold the bag. Now mind you none of these financial institutions were worried about bailing you out, so why should you be concerned with saving their butts?

It’s just another case of the mega wealthy using our resources to maintain their operations. If this bailout doesn’t work the entire world as we know it will be up for grabs. It’s almost a trillion dollars to operate this bailout and with no guarantees down the line.

It’s a bandaid on a head wound strategy and once again you can count on the Republicans for this nonsense. From the days when Nixon removed the gold standards and the usury laws were nullified to the Reaganites and the start of the deregulation bandwagon.

The safeguards were removed in direct opposition of what the Founding Fathers wanted and to prove it look at the shit we’re in now. There’s no debate, there’s no gray area here, them’s the facts jack.

We the people are faulty. We’re not perfect and given to errors so we have safeguards put in place by the wisest of us in order to prevent and repair when we do go astray.

We’ve spent trillions on a war in a country that didn’t attack us and not enough in on a country that did. There’s enough blame to go around and why we’re where we are is anwerable by every foul up in human history. Same causes, different names.

It’s going to take some drastic changes in our behavior as a collective nation to alter things for the better. We’re not going to fall into Depresssion Era dispair but it’s gonna be close if worse happens. Natural disasters, terrorism, we’re hanging on by a thread but we do have enough courage, money, resources, drive to survive where others would end up in the soup. It’s not gonna be pretty but shoveling one’s way out of the shitpile never is.
