At least 10 people were killed or found dead under suspicious circumstances since 3 p.m. Friday afternoon across Chicago. Among the dead were the decomposing bodies of a mother and her three children found in an East Chatham home with evidence of trauma and a fire that was never reported, and three men dead in a double-murder-suicide in the Mayfair neighborhood Friday afternoon. Thirty-five people were also wounded in shootings as far north as the Albany Park neighborhood and as far south as Roseland. Some of the wounded were in critical condition. No side of the city was without a...

New Black Panther Head: Like Founding Fathers, We Are Willing to Kill for Black Nation New Black Panther Chief Breitbart Non-Syndicated by Pam Key 30 Apr 2015 WARNING: Profanity/Strong Racial Language This Week on the New Black Panther Party’s “Black Power Radio,” national chairman Hashim Nzinga said since America has “declared war on us,” evidenced by “military police in the black neighborhood” protecting the rich, the New Black Panthers should be looked upon as Founding Fathers who declare war and are “willing to die or kill to save our babies and to save a black nation that is dying before...

We are, most of us, grieving Trayvon Martin's death, again, after this absurd jury verdict. Last night, I watched Anderson Cooper's 'Town Hall on Race and Justice in America'. These discussions are interesting. There are, usually, a few thoughts that are heartfelt and impressionable. Charles Blow has been, particularly, moving. A few days before, I told a friend that these discussions about 'race' keep black people situated in a 'victim' narrative. Stories of how we have to talk to our children to protect themselves when in public. Stories from high achieving black men about how they were stopped by the...

We all do stupid things when we’re drunk, but among bad decisions, this one deserves special distinction: on the night of January 4, 1965, U.S. Army Sergeant Charles Robert Jenkins pounded 10 beers, deserted his infantry company at the edge of the Korean Demilitarized Zone, walked alone across a minefield, and defected to North Korea. He was thrown into a chilly, spartan house (he tried, unsuccessfully, to leave) and forced to study the works of the North Korean dictator Kim Il Sung for 11 hours every day. By 1972, he could recite Kim’s core principles by heart in Korean. That...

I love how the words just casually roll off his tongue, as if he had been saying them all his life. Which he has. But there is no such thing as black racism, don't you know? Using a racial epithet to describe one's political opponents is accepted behavior. Or at least it must be because the only people saying anything about it are those on the right. But even at 83, dressed in a blue bow tie and crisp gray suit, Rangel is relentless toward those who he feels are slowing the forces of progress. House Republicans? Have done more...

In an interview with the Daily Beast published Friday, Rep. Charlie Rangel (D-NY) suggested Tea Partiers are the "same group" who fought for segregation during the Civil Rights movement.

Monica Lewinsky is reportedly set to write a tell-all book about her affair with Bill Clinton - including her intimate love letters to the ex-president and how he had an insatiable desire for threesomes. The former White House intern, 39, reportedly wants revenge on Clinton, who she believes escaped unscathed while she has never been able to shake the disgrace of their Oval Office trysts. Friends claim publishers are scrambling to get their hands on the book, and after holding meetings, she has learned she could get as much a $12 million if she recounts every tawdry detail. While she...

Milton is a small New Hampshire town that knows how to safeguard its secrets -- namely by losing the combination to one very large safe. No one's quite sure when the safe was last opened, but the town's administrator and selectmen were determined to end the mystery of its contents. So they hired a safecracker, Seacoast Lock and Safe owner Paul Letourneau. Letourneau says it took him three hours Thursday to drill through and reset the combination of the safe. "On a scale of 1-10, it was probably a seven," Letourneau said. The safe was immediately closed and relocked so...

Parents of murdered British students criticise Barack Obama The parents of two British students murdered in Florida have criticised President Barack Obama for his lack of compassion over their son's deaths.

President Obama, I oppose your appointment of Michael Taylor, a former VP and Lobbyist for Monsanto, the widely criticized Genetically Modified (GM) food multinational, as Senior Advisor to the Commissioner at the FDA. Taylor is the same person who was Food Safety Czar at the FDA when Genetically Modified Organisms were allowed into the US food supply without undergoing a single test to determine their safety or risks. This is a travesty. Taylor was in charge of policy for Monsanto's now-discredited GM Bovine Growth Hormone (rBGH) which is directly linked to cancer and opposed by many medical and hospital organizations.

Linky Here From another website: "I'm going to get downvoted for this, but if you do the math its... not as ludicrous as they make it seem. The guy worked 40 hours and was expecting $334 (I'm assuming after taxes). This comes out to $8.35 an hour... while its definitely not awesome pay, its still above minimum wage. He received $130 after subtracting living costs, this means the company charges $204/week for housing, which comes out to $816/month. If this includes utilities and such, its actually a decent rate for a one BR apartment. The "conditions" these students face...

Actual Title: The Parallax Corporation to Release First Officially Licensed High-Energy Plankton Food, Soylent Green San Francisco, CA (PRWEB) August 23, 2011 The all-natural green crackers, which contain real high-energy plankton, are made in the U.S. at a small-batch gourmet food manufacturing plant. "We worked to create a collectible box that looks just the way Soylent Green would have been packaged," says Parallax President David Garth, "and the box design recreates the utopian propaganda of an evil mega-corporation with the feelings of despair and hunger depicted in the movie." Soylent Green, which was released in 1973 to critical acclaim, was...

ZULU SHABAZZ THREATENS TEA PARTY WITH ARMED VIOLENCE Our cranky pal Malik Zulu Shabazz, chairman of the New Black Panther Party, is up to his antics again. On Planet Zulu, Black Americans are the real victims of the Holocaust. Call the Rat crazy, (He’s been called worse) but Shabazz’s politics of victimization and division are little more than Liberal Class Warfare on steroids. Are the Jews God’s chosen people? Of course not, its America’s Blacks, wise up folks. The Chairman isn’t too happy with the Jews for “perpetrating the fraud” of the Holocaust or the whole “chosen people” thing either....

The loose hacker collective Anonymous says it has taken revenge on a US security company whose principal claimed to have penetrated the group and identified some of its key people. They hacked the Twitter account of Aaron Barr, the chief executive of HBGary, and sent out a series of angry tweets while many Americans were watching the Super Bowl match on Sunday night, allegedly including Barr's social security number and address, and his mobile phone number.

So much for that new tone of civility. On Friday’s “Hardball,” MSNBC host Chris Matthews acknowledged his disappointment in the tack Republicans have taken toward President Barack Obama – especially in this time following the tragic shooting in Arizona. “Yeah, it’s almost like what he does is no good – let’s kill it because it’s his,” Matthews said. After citing a spokesman from House Majority Leader Eric Cantor’s office, Matthews asked the Huffington Post’s Sam Stein if Republicans would play nice with Obama, or would they go ad hominem. However, in phrasing the question, he used what some believe is...

Is this offensive? I ask that in all earnestness because, after this week, I don’t know what the rules are for political speech anymore. I thought “cracker” was a mild slur for whites, but then I also thought that joking about hanging Joe Lieberman in effigy must be over the line as an impermissible violent metaphor — and evidently I was waaay wrong about that. So, I guess this is cool now. Life brings us new lessons every day, my friends. Two clips for you here, one of Matthews on “crackers” and the other, via the Daily Caller, of Pat...

Chris Matthews referred to birthers as crackers during his Hardball segment in reference to the political discourse, and warped partisan politics over the birthplace of President Barack Obama. . . ....frpa

Michelle Obama lobbying yesterday at the NAACP Convention for their vote today on whether or not they should issue a proclamation condemning the TEA Party movement for being ‘racist.’ In this offensive race-baiting move, Michelle Obama is straining at gnats and swallowing camels, such as the New Black Panthers’ call to kill “crackers” (a.k.a. white people) and to kill their babies! Here’s the video of the Black Panthers call to mass murder white people. In contrast, if you want to a TEA Party of largely white people, visit the www.CleanTV.com April 15, 2010 news special on the Raleigh Sweet TEA...
