Time to put on the foil hat…The black helicopters are real
http://abclocal.go.com/ktrk/video?id=8971359&pid=8971311
A day or so ago, it was Miami, now it’s Houston. For those who don’t know, the Hughes 500 helicopter seen in this video sports a configuration flown almost exclusively by the Army’s 160th Special Operations Aviation Regiment in this country. Just as was the case with the Blackhawk helicopters seen over Miami. If you saw Blackhawk Down, you likely saw the same helicopters and it might have been some of the same pilots. And again, little or no detail about what these military units are doing or planning by operating in such public areas.
Folks, a little over four years ago, we were promised more transparency and honesty in our government than we’d ever seen before. Instead, if you’ve been paying attention, we’ve seen continuation and expansion of every secret program Bush ever started. You know; Gitmo, indefinite detention without trial, as well as warrant-less searches, seizures, and wiretapping?
Well, we now have a government that has openly stated it can, has, and will continue to kill US citizens or anyone else without any form of due process if they believe them to be “enemy combatants” in active war zones while known terrorists in the same region are supposed to be mirandized and given a public trial. When asked if the authority to kill US citizens applied to those on US soil, the current Director of the FBI said he wasn’t sure. Really? There used to be a document called the US Constitution that said quite clearly the answer is no but, the FBI Director isn’t sure if the Federal Government still sees things that way.
Meanwhile, all the people who were screaming that Bush was guilty for all of the above and more, have been conspicuously silent or leading the charge to disarm the public while the Federal Government buys billions of rounds of ammo, thousands of new rifles and shotguns, and heavier armor to “serve you better.” I’m not usually the foil-hat guy but, I am no longer confident that we are moving toward a freer, safer society

Update on the Lone Star College shooting
Charges against first suspect in Lone Star College shooting dropped | News – Home.
In another case of early reports not necessarily being correct, charges against Carlton Berry, the original suspect in the Lone Star College shooting have been dropped. The prosecutors say they have determined there is insufficient evidence to charge him or proceed to trial. Further statements seem to indicate that his charges are a result of guilt by association and identification First, one of the shooting victims identified Berry as the shooter initially but, later said he was wrong and that Foster was the shooter. Second, Berry was seen on video walking next to (not necessarily with) Trey Foster. Foster was also charged with 2 counts of aggravated assault and has apparently admitted to being the shooter.
Now, what bothers me is Quanell Evans (aka Quanell X) is out still defending Foster. Foster bought the gun legally at Gander Mountain and originally claimed he had a CHL. Well on further review, it appears Foster only took “courses to legally carry a gun, but did not finish them.” Um, would that be because Foster had a criminal history for resisting arrest (a felony) and possession of a prohibited weapon (Class A misdemeanors) that should have permanently disqualified him for both concealed handgun license, let alone buying a handgun!
I’m sorry but, this case still reeks of turd like behavior by what appears to be a habitual turd! The left jumped all over this case calling for more gun control laws. But once again, we have a case of existing laws being broken and/or not enforced. What’s the point of having background checks if Foster, with a criminal history that includes resisting arrest (again, a felony!), is “passing” said background checks?
Quanell Evans says Foster carried a gun because he’d been shot before. Foster’s family says he snapped because he’d been getting threatening messages. Folks, none of these things are excuses for all the laws Foster apparently violated let alone shooting someone in this situation. CHL or not, it is ILLEGAL to carry on a college campus at this time. Deadly force is NOT AUTHORIZED as a response to unlawful force…Unlawful deadly force is another story but, by his own admission, that’s not what we were dealing with. What grown ass man gets into a fight over someone bumping into you?!?! This is an issue of maturity or more specifically, a lack there of.

Correction: Need to correct something here folks. Earlier I said carry on campus wasn’t legal even with a concealed handgun license…That’s wrong. Hold your horses! Fact is, the campus itself does not constitute the “premises” of the school as defined in Texas Penal Code, Chapter 46.035. More specifically, premises is defined as the structures contained there in so one would have to enter a school building (not just the parking lot or walkways) to violate the law with respect to being the holder of a CHL. However, that doesn’t change the fact that Foster was illegally carrying a handgun on or about his person which again, is violation of the law.

The Next American Civil War
Above is a link to an interesting article brought to our attention by a GOTR listener and friend. Dear God, I hope the author is wrong but, the fact is, he’s so right it’s scary. I realize I’m preaching to the choir but, there are a bunch of liberals who need to read this and truly understand it. There are at least 50 million, possibly over 100 million people who will not simply lay down their arms in the name of all that is fluffy and smells of kittens and roses.

Annie, get your gun!
Wis. sheriff urges citizens to get gun training – Yahoo! News.
Honestly, I’m quite impressed this sheriff had the huevos to say it publicly. The only shame here should be Roy Felber’s. He’s the president of the Milwaukee Deputy Sheriff’s Association and says it sounds like vigilantism. So it seems Roy is the kind of cop we all hate…The guy who says, be a good victim until I get there to save you. Just relax and try to enjoy whatever befalls you until the police get around to answering your call.
Folks, the sheriff made the right call. He recognizes that between budget cuts and that cold hard one known as reality, neither he nor his deputies can be everywhere at all times. If someone is trying to do you harm right now, that problem is yours to solve until the police get there and even then, the police may not be able to help you. But, most people don’t know this and will have to learn this lesson the hard way. Unfortunately, most don’t survive the class and amazingly, some come out of it having failed to learn the lesson!
