Your Weekly Police Brutality -- Police continue to endanger themselves and the public

2012-01-21T14:28:00.000-08:00

More examples of how our police are using the worst tactics possible when dealing with protesters. Pushing, beating and shooting rubber or paintball pellets at peaceful protesters is not protecting the public it is endangering the very people that pay taxes for their service. Not only are the protesters in danger, but the police are putting themselves in danger by escalating and instigating violence during these peaceful protests.
It's a loose-loose for the police as far as I am concerned.
#1. Violating the public's rights
#2. Putting everyone in danger for violence
#3. Destroying the public's view and thus trust of the police
#4. Destroying public support and or backing for the police when it comes time to get funding and pensions issues addressed.

I guess what I am trying to say is... Who are the police here to "Serve and Protect" if not these people....

Here are a few videos from yesterdays #J20 action in San Francisco and UC Riverside Campus

These are videos you will not see on Mainstream Media...

Pay attention when 17:00 mins comes up that is when things go off in the wrong direction

Day 3 of #WorldWarWeb #OpMegaupload Anonymous continues the largest and longest cyber war -- #hacktivism

2012-01-21T13:21:00.000-08:00

In day 3 of the #WorldWarWeb, #OpMegaupload continues with thousands of DDOS attackers, from all around the world, targeting so many websites it is becoming difficult to keep up with.

IMPORTANT
There are reports that non-Anonymous people were somehow tricked into participating in the DDOS attacks. Apparently, this happened when people began clicking on links without checking them first and then realizing that they had landed on a webpage with some type of programming already installed within the page. This page apparently began to DDOS targeted websites, which made non-participants unwillingly attackers.

I try to check any links that I re-tweet or post prior to postings, however if the site changes after I have linked it I will not be able to know since I am not constantly checking all of the links.

DDOS attacks have been found to be illegal in several countries, including the US and UK.
Below is a Wikiepedia link to information on the Computer Fraud Abuse Act in the US,which has been used to prosecute DDOS attackers.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Computer_Fraud_and_Abuse_Act

Don't be to alarmed... In order to be charged you would have to knowingly be participating in the DDOS, so you should be ok if you find yourself falling for this. Just keep an eye out on what you are doing online.

#Occupycongress Undercover Capital Police instigate by pushing protesters and then arresting caught on video

2012-01-20T22:01:00.000-08:00

The #OccupyCongress protests took place today and when they reached the Supreme Court they were met by dozens of police officers. However, what the protesters didn't realize there were undercover/plain clothes officers mixed within the crowd of protesters. Watch the video below and pay attention when 22:00 minutes hit... That is when an undercover officer is seen on video pushing protesters and then eventually ending up on the ground arresting another protester. This type of stuff continues on throughout the video. The Occupy groups have done nothing but been peaceful, yet the police continue to use extremely poor tactics that do nothing but increase tensions and break individual rights.

UC Riverside Police shoot UC Student Protesters with paintballs guns Video Links

2012-01-19T23:24:00.000-08:00

UC RIVERSIDE Shoot paintballs at student protesters... The UC Student were protesting the recent tuition and fee hikes during a UC Regents meeting on campus.

After watching the videos I found on Youtube...

I find it unnecessary to have police with RIOT GEAR at these protests. The police presence is clearly intensifying the protests as well as endangering the safety of the very students that pay tuition to these schools. WHO would send their child to a school that would allow this to happen?

BREAKING NEWS 13 Members of #OccupySD were told to leave a Greyhound Bus headed from SD to DC

2012-01-14T19:34:00.000-08:00

BREAKING NEWS 13 Members of #OccupySD were told to leave a Greyhound Bus headed from SD to DC for the upcoming #OccupyDC protest.The bus driver had the police remove 13 paying customers from the bus, while stopped at the Amarillo, TX Greyhound Station Stop.
These 13 people are now stranded, however the social media is currently working to help them out....

Listening to the stream--- they were headed along the way and the bus driver began to have words with the Occupiers and the disagreements lead to the bus driver using a company police that allows the drivers to remove any occupants. I'm sure this will lead to a PR problem for Greyhound, unless they make up for this ASAP.

Obama picks new chief of staff Jacob Lew --- another banker?

2012-01-12T17:44:00.000-08:00

Banks have obviously been a major part of the "Problem" we are experiencing now in the US. So, when President Obama appoints Jacob Lew as his new chief of staff... what are we to think now?

You might want to take a good look at who Mr. Lew has worked with in the past...

President Obama has gone from one banker --- William Daley to another banker Jacob Lew --- I'm not seeing the change I voted for.... still.

Unfortunatley Obama signed #NDAA

2011-12-31T12:45:00.000-08:00

AP news is reporting that President Obama has signed the NDAA while on vacation with family in Hawaii. Apparently, he signed the act even though he held reservations about the indefinite detention of Americans.

One interesting quote from the President...
"My administration will not authorize the indefinite military detention without trial of American citizens," Obama said

While that may be comforting to some... It does not stop future administrations from abusing this law.

Could the US face Currency Devaluation ?

2011-12-30T10:49:00.000-08:00

Please read the quotes below and then consider...

Remarks by Governor Ben S. Bernanke
Before the National Economists Club, Washington, D.C.
November 21, 2002 Deflation: Making Sure "It" Doesn't Happen Here
"Although a policy of intervening to affect the exchange value of the dollar is nowhere on the horizon today, it's worth noting that there have been times when exchange rate policy has been an effective weapon against deflation. A striking example from U.S. history is Franklin Roosevelt's 40 percent devaluation of the dollar against gold in 1933-34, enforced by a program of gold purchases and domestic money creation. The devaluation and the rapid increase in money supply it permitted ended the U.S. deflation remarkably quickly. Indeed, consumer price inflation in the United States, year on year, went from -10.3 percent in 1932 to -5.1 percent in 1933 to 3.4 percent in 1934.¹⁷ The economy grew strongly, and by the way, 1934 was one of the best years of the century for the stock market. If nothing else, the episode illustrates that monetary actions can have powerful effects on the economy, even when the nominal interest rate is at or near zero, as was the case at the time of Roosevelt's devaluation.
"

Read the document in full on the Federal Reserves website for yourself

http://www.federalreserve.gov/boarddocs/speeches/2002/20021121/default.htm

NOW
Consider this ---
If the government has not been able to adjust and or fix the economy by either raising taxes or making budget cuts... then what is left? Is Currency Devaluation a real possibility ? What would be alarming is that a devaluation would happen overnight and without a warning. A person might have $10,000 in a bank account on Friday, only to awake Monday to a devaluation meaning that their bank account would reflect the %40 loss in value just like that. Scary times?... Yes!... Time to have real change?... Yes!

BTW, isn't just a wonder that Ben S. Bernanke was the person discussing this issue back in 2002?

Does our government waste tax dollars? Hypocrisy ?

2011-12-26T15:05:00.000-08:00

Ok I've been reading a lot of talk about how much the Occupy Movement has cost cities around the nation, as far as clean up and police cost etc...

This sounds like a familiar argument... however, what should be pointed out is that major banks have cost tax payers billions in damages to the economy.
If you look closely you can find more information on how your government waste tax dollars on a regular basis. Here are two examples...#2 discusses how Rick Perry's run for the president is costing tax payers over $400k per month in security. Now let's take a look at those numbers

One person running for president Texas -Rick Perry- spends $400k per month of tax payers dollars = $4.8 million for the year on security, flight and other expenses.

1000's protest in Los Angeles to start a discussion on how we can fix problems our government and corporations have created for our country and cost LA $2.3 million in tax dollars. In addition $1.2 million of that $2.3 mil was spent on Police over time... police overtime that was not necessary since the protesters were not rioting nor were they violent... oh by the way remember how much the 2009 Lakers parade cost = $1.7 million.

#1 Article stating Los Angeles estimates the Occupy Movement cost the city over $2.3 million in damages, clean up and or police cost....

#2 Article stating that Rick Perry is spending $400,000 per month on security paid for by tax payers.

Usually, the journalist and others video taping are allowed to continue taping, however, on this night the NYPD blocked all journalist from the park area and some other specific areas. This video shows what the NYPD and the city didn't want you to see. Non violent demonstrators being taken down with way more force then required, journalist being denied the right to document the raid and bullshit lies being used as reasons to why the camp needed to be cleared - by the Mayor....

The Jury Presentment PDF

"One of the most compelling and disturbing pieces of testimony in this investigation came from an eyewitness to a late-night sexual assault that allegedly occurred in March of 2002, in the locker room of the Lasch Football Building on the University Park Campus," Kelly said. "Hearing what sounded like sexual activity in the showers of a building that was supposed to be empty, a graduate assistant reportedly observed Sandusky sexually assaulting a naked boy who appeared to be about 10 years old.
--
Kelly said the assistant, who was extremely upset about what he had seen, immediately called his father to relate what he had discovered. Together, the two decided that the assistant should promptly report the incident to head football coach Joe Paterno." Taken from

Disgusting details --- How in the hell does someone decide to call the coach and not the police after seeing a boy being raped ???

Let us all remember what they said about Eqypt....

I wanted to post this clip, so that we can reflect on what Hillary Clinton was saying when Egyptians were in the streets protesting just a few months ago. Listen to 2:30 minutes in.... Hillary says that we want to help them create a democratic society so that they can follow BASIC HUMAN RIGHTS. I found that to be an interesting choice of words. I would like to think we would strive to go beyond just BASIC HUMAN RIGHTS.... This clip illustrates how we in the U.S. are conditioned to feel about protesting. It's ok outside of the U.S., but once it hits home then it is looked down upon and un-American. The right to voice our opinion is what makes America.

Did you know... Governments ask Google to take down content...

2011-10-26T18:47:00.000-07:00

You may have heard rumors that the Chinese Government makes regular requests to remove and or block content that Google serves to it's population. You may be surprised to find out that many countries including, the Unites States of America, make the same request to Google as well. Take a look at the Government Requests log for Google's Transparency page....

http://www.google.com/transparencyreport/governmentrequests/

Now take a look at the request of countries like, China, Russia, Turkey and the U.S. When you click on the country you get a more informative page... like this -

http://www.google.com/transparencyreport/governmentrequests/US/?p=2011-06

One of the key things to keep an eye on is YouTube block request. China for instance chooses to block YouTube completely from their population.

Each month Google releases this transparency data... now you can see how your freedom of speech compares to China.

The city of Oakland has asked the Occupy Oakland protestors to break up their camp. Police have apparently been called in to remove the camp and to break the protestors up. The police used riot gear, including flash bang and tear gas to break the crowds up.

Here are links that you can use to check the situation out from the Occupy POV

One of many issues with the banks

2011-10-18T13:32:00.000-07:00

I once explained to a disconnected friend, that the banks were charging overdraft fees on my account and it was getting out of control. She said that I was not paying good attention to my balance....
To the contrary, I was logging in to my account to check my balance whenever I was planning to use my card. As it turns out... the banks are using a computer program that arranges payments to clear at different times and most of those times the bank is able to over draw the account.

Listen to this video found on Youtube of a Citibank customer as he discusses this issue with the customer support.

People are now protesting their banks by closing their accounts. This of course does not make the bank very happy so, they are now arresting the protester/customers that are attempting to close their accounts.
