'You would have to stick your head in the sand to think this wasn’t fueled by BLM'

Milwaukee County Sheriff David Clarke is not letting up in his fight to expose Black Lives Matter activists as a race baiting movement intent on creating more division and segregation.

In an appearance on CNN Monday night, Clarke called out lefty journalist Marc Lamont Hill, arguing that BLM activists are directly tied to the brutal murder of Harris County, TX deputy Darren Goforth on Friday.

“I think very fair in light of the anti-cop rhetoric that is sweeping the United States of America, fueled by this group, some of the vulgar, vile, vicious rhetoric coming out talking about killing cops.” Clarke urged.

“That’s some of the nice stuff. Some of the stuff I can’t even say here on TV. But there’s no doubt in my mind that the two New York officers, [Rafael] Ramos and [Wenjian] Liu, were gunned down by an individual who made Facebook postings about wanting to kill pigs. And he was going to go out and hunt officers down.” Clarke added.

“There have been officers across the United States who had their cruisers shot at and struck while they patrolled in St. Louis — the same thing.” The Sheriff continued.

“This is part of a pattern. You would have to stick your head in the sand to think this wasn’t fueled by this vile, vulgar, slimy movement.” Clarke added, referring to Black Lives Matter.

Hill counter argued that an investigation was needed before the killing was linked to anti-police rhetoric coming from Black Lives Matter groups.

“The argument of black lives matter is not to say that police officers should be killed, that police officers should be demonized, that police officers should be marginalized.” Hill said.

Hill essentially argues the same point as other BLM activists who have stated that inflammatory rhetoric such as chanting “Pigs in a blanket, fry ’em like bacon,” as many did at a Minnesota rally this past weekend, is not a call for violence against police.

The execution of deputy Goforth came just two weeks after armed Black Panther membersmarched in Houston, taunting cops by shouting “You’re gonna stop doing what you’re doing, or we will start creeping up on you in the darkness.”

Sheriff Clarke has argued that it is now “open season” on police in the US, and blames President Obama and former Attorney General Eric Holder for laying the groundwork by supporting ‘activists’ who have disparaged law enforcement based upon a set of lies.

Seattle Sued Over Guns and Ammo Tax Scheme

By Woody published on August 25, 2015 in News

The Shooter’s Log wants to inform our readers that two gun owners, two retailers, and three national gun groups have sued the City of Seattle over adoption of a retail sales tax on guns and ammunition. They are challenging the City of Seattle’s recently approved sales tax of $25 on each firearm sold and five cents for each round of ammunition (two cents for .22 caliber).

The city ordinance was labeled a “gun violence tax,” but the City Council nevertheless approved the measure on Aug. 10 and Mayor Ed Murray signed it last week. The lawsuit, filed in King County Superior Court, names as defendants Mayor Ed Murray, the city’s Department of Finance and Administrative Services, and that department’s director, Glen Lee. See our previous coverage of the issue here.

The suit asserts that Washington State’s 33-year-old state preemption law does not allow cities, counties or political subdivisions to enact laws relating to firearms, unless state law authorizes those local regulations.

The local plaintiffs include two individuals: Philip Watson, “… an individual residing in Lakewood, Washington,” who intends to continue purchasing ammunition in Seattle, and Ray Carter, “an individual residing in West Seattle” who will not be able to continue purchasing guns and ammo “if the firearm and ammunition tax is imposed and the cost is passed on to the consumer.”

Other local plaintiffs include two of the city’s firearms retailers—Outdoor Emporium and Precise Shooter LLC. According to the lawsuit, Outdoor Emporium is the largest firearm and ammunition retailer in Seattle. The suit says, “Outdoor Emporium retails firearms and ammunition to consumers, approximately 70% of whom are non-Seattle residents. Outdoor Emporium also wholesales ammunition to other retailers in the Seattle area.” The second business plaintiff is Precise Shooter, LLC, which, according to the lawsuit, is “… a retailer of firearms and ammunition that specializes in serving sportsmen and women seeking products for highly accurate target shooting, as used in shooting sports, competitive events, ranges, and hunting.”

According to a release by the Second Amendment Foundation (SAF), it and the NRA have previously cooperated in lawsuits against New Orleans, San Francisco and Seattle, the last suit overturning a previous attempt by then-Seattle Mayor Greg Nickels and his successor, Mike McGinn, to prohibit legally carried firearms in city park facilities. This legal action marks the first time NSSF has joined with SAF and NRA in a lawsuit.

“NSSF has no alternative but to be an active party in this lawsuit against the City of Seattle’s attempt to interfere in the lawful commerce in firearms and ammunition on the grounds that it violates Washington State’s preemption statute that blocks cities from regulating the sale of firearms on their own.” said Lawrence G. Keane, NSSF Senior Vice President and General Counsel. “The Seattle ordinance is nothing but a ‘poll tax’ on the Second Amendment and an effort to drive Seattle’s firearms retailers out of business.”

“Once again, anti-gun activists in Seattle have chosen to violate the Washington State Constitution and trample upon the Second Amendment rights of law-abiding citizens,” said Chris Cox, executive director of NRA’s Institute for Legislative Action. “They tried to enact similar regulations back in 2009 and lost. It’s a shame to see such a waste of public resources on issues the courts have already ruled to be unconstitutional.”

“We’ve been down this path before with Seattle when we sued them and won, knocking out their attempt to ban guns in city park facilities,” said SAF founder and Executive Vice President Alan Gottlieb. “The city does not seem to understand that no matter how they wrap this package, it’s still a gun control law and it violates Washington’s long-standing preemption statute.”

This US School District Is The First To Serve 100% Organic, GMO-Free Meals

AUGUST 29, 2015

By Amanda Froelich

Not only will children consume healthier fare, they’ll also learn about nutrition and gardening.

Schools in California’s Sausalito Marin County District will be the first in the nation to serve their students 100% organic meals, sustainably sourced and free of genetically modified organisms(GMOs).

As EcoWatch reports, more than 500 students at Bayside MLK Jr. Academy (Marin City) and Willow Creek Academy (Sausalito) in Marin County, California, will eat nutritious, sustainably grown meals year-round. Thanks to a partnership with The Conscious Kitchen, a project of the environmental education nonprofit Turning Green, this initiative has been made possible.

The pilot program was launched in August 2013 in August 2013 together with Cavallo Point Lodge, the Sausalito Marin City School District, Whole Foods Market and Good Earth Natural Foods. In the beginning, the program only served 156 students at the Bayside MLK Jr. But within two years, attendance increased, and a steep decrease in disciplinary cases was recorded. Now, The Conscious Kitchen is expanding to serve Willow Creek Academy, the other school in the school district.

Students everywhere are vulnerable to pesticide residues and unsafe environmental toxins,” Turning Green founder Judi Shils said on Tuesday. “Not only does this program far exceed U SDA nutritional standards, but it ties the health of our children to the health of our planet. It’s the first program to say that fundamentally, you cannot have one without the other.”

According to the organization, meals will be accompanied by nutrition and gardening education. In addition, the program will also address the controversial issue of GMOs inschool food. While the long-term effects posed by genetically modified crops is still unknown, there is a growing amount of evidence linking them to a number of health risks and environmental damage. “An estimated 80 percent of items on most supermarket shelves contain GMOs, and they are ubiquitous in school food programs,” reports EcoWatch.

Which is why offering nutritious, wholesome, and organic fare to kids is one of the best steps adults can take today to ensure young kids have a vibrant future.

The fact that this program teaches kids to become more aware of their food and where it comes from is an incredibly positive development. Says Liza Siegler, the organization’s head of partnerships and engagement:

Schools that incorporate an integrated approach to edible education—combining local, seasonal foodprocurement strategies with hands-on lessons taught in the classroom, kitchen, and garden—are far more likely to sustain healthy school meal initiatives.

With obesity-related crises on the rise, this program will not only empower young kids to “be the change,” but potentially save lives by teaching them to employ food as their first form of medicine.

“Most people don’t realize that GMOs are everywhere, especially in processed foods,” says Justin Everett, the consulting chef for The Conscious Kitchen. “By embracing fresh, local, organic, non-GMO food, this program successfully disrupts the cycle of unhealthy, pre-packaged, heat and serve meals that dominate school kitchens.”

Who can disagree with that?

How Google Destroyed the Internet

 

By Brett Stevens

alternative-right.blogspot.com
The internet was created to resolve a simple problem: in communications networks, any central node through which all messages passed was vulnerable to attack or takeover. To counter this, engineers designed a network where any node would pass messages to other nodes, routing around any damage.

Then came commerce and the democratization of the internet.

Under this model, frightened sheep flock to certain central sites that provide the services they need, and avoid everything else, lest it be politically incorrect or upsetting.

Enter Google. This company made its fortune on a simple premise, which was that picking the most popular sites allowed them to rank all other sites based on whether those popular sites linked to them. Guess what this does? It eliminates the small sites. We are back to centralization.

Consider Wikipedia. When Google had trouble with its algorithm often missing the best results, it came up with a simple idea: have thousands of internet volunteers plagiarize all of those other sites onto one big site, call it “The People’s Encyclopedia,” and use that to generate “accurate” search results every time.

Fast-forward, and a few big sites — among them Google, Amazon, Apple, Wikipedia, and Facebook — dominate most of the traffic on the internet. The days of independent thinkers making quality information widely available online are mostly gone, simply because 99% of the traffic will type in a search and click on the most obvious result, and go to one of those corporate-controlled sites.

Writing from a more political, than economic, viewpoint, one article points out the problem of internet consolidation:

“The Internet, like other computing resources, operates on a pendulum swing: from centralized to decentralized, from rampant innovation to predictable results, from controlled to transparent processes. Some speakers at this year’s Black Hat conference were publicly concerned about an ever-more-centralized Internet and what we as an industry need to do. Otherwise, they fear, the Internet turns into TV, and the people who least understand the environment will control it.

…Technology used to enforce existing power structures, Granick said, but we discovered that people have not learned how to protect themselves. So we have centralized with choke points where regulation can happen. The problem is that, in the next 20 years, these policies will be created by governments with local concerns, not global concerns. And by powerful players with money.”

The problem of this internet is that complaints rule the day. Businesses are interested in profit, and so they take down any content which will obstruct that goal, which includes exactly the type of content which “free speech” was created to protect: unpopular material that contravenes the dominant paradigm, but nonetheless could represent either insanity or an alternative to our current methods which are not working.

Monopoly

When the six large sites which control the internet see something which might reduce the tendency of others to use their services, they remove it. Google has so far avoided removing content from the internet, but acts out an even worse future by prioritizing that which is popular and burying the unpopular on page ten of the search results. Bing does the same. The result is a self-referential, self-confirming masturbatory hugbox that eliminates what it is afraid of, including what it should pay attention to.

Similarly, Google influences the direction of business, and points those toward ideological objectives in the guise of business expansion:

“Page estimates that only about 50 investors are chasing the real breakthrough technologies that have the potential to make a material difference to the lives of most people on earth. If there is something holding these big ideas back, it is not a shortage of money or even the barrier of insurmountable technical hurdles. When breakthroughs of the type he has in mind are pursued, it is “not really being driven by any fundamental technical advance. It’s just being driven by people working on it and being ambitious,” he says. Not enough institutions – particularly governments – are thinking expansively enough about these issues: “We’re probably underinvested as a world in that.”

What this shows us is the internet, both as a network and a market, consolidating and centralizing. In other words, it is doing exactly what it was designed to avoid.
