Memphis Tennessee has been on the news recently as several alarming stories hit the headlines last week.  A Mob Attack at a PB Gas Station; A 7 year old girl targeted for a gang land shooting;  19 Gangster Disciples arrested in drug sweep.
Many people are alarmed at the violence being reflected amid the various story lines and the culture of indifference to drugs, guns, death and gang violence.
A local story from Fox out of Memphis helps to explain how this happens.  Scroll through Jonathan’s Instagram pictures and you can see how early in life the problem takes hold.


(Memphis – Via Fox) Guns, weed, gang signs: It’s the theme throughout a 13-year-old’s 108 Instagram posts.
“This is nothing strange to me,” said Stevie Moore with Freedom From Unnecessary Negatives, a group counseling troubled youth. (more…)

Feidin Santana’s attorney Todd Rutherford says:

“The search for justice is served by turning the video over to law enforcement.  The news media, appeared to be in the ‘search for revenue'”…

Which makes you wonder why Todd Rutherford sent the video to the media, no?

NORTH CHARLESTON, S.C. — The video of a North Charleston police officer shooting an unarmed man in the back will now cost news outlets that want to run it $10,000, according to a publicist representing the man who shot it.

Cease-and-desist letters went out this week to news outlets around the world from Markson Sparks, a publicity and celebrity management company based in Sydney, Australia. (more…)

Those following the Obama Immigration Executive Action legal battles will note yesterday Congressman Young  was asking Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) Director Saldana the exact same point outlined in Judge Hanen’s rebuke of the White House.

From the ruling:

[Judge Hanen continues…] The President’s message, specifically to those law enforcement officials employed within the Executive Branch, and more generally to the nation, is clear. First, immigration laws (INA), which those officials are charged with enforcing, are not to be enforced when those laws conflict with the 2014 DHS Directive. Second, the criteria set out in that Directive are mandatory. Third, if DHS officials (or other Executive Branch officials) fail to follow the specified criteria, there will be consequences for this failure.

Just as there would be consequences if they were in the military and disobeyed an order from the Commander in Chief. In summary, the Chief Executive has ordered that the laws requiring removal of illegal immigrants that conflict with the 2014 DHS Directive are not to be enforced, and that anyone who attempts to do so will be punished.  (link)

So yesterday ICE Director Saldana is on Capitol Hill answering questions when Republican David Young asks Mrs. Saldana about the conflict between the law, and the rules imposed by President Obama that force border patrol agents to: a.) break the law, or b.) break Obama’s executive action rules.

How Saldana replies is, well, JAW DROPPING.  – Watch video below: (more…)

Nothing from a Clinton is ever unscripted. Nothing is ever coincidental. Nothing is ever accidental.   …. And this is funny.

(Via Daily Mail)  Hillary Clinton’s astroturf candidacy is in full swing in Iowa.

Her Tuesday morning visit to a coffee shop in LeClaire, Iowa was staged from beginning to end, according to Austin Bird, one of the men pictured sitting at the table with Mrs. Clinton.

Bird told Daily Mail Online that campaign staffer Troy Price called and asked him and two other young people to meet him Tuesday morning at a restaurant in Davenport, a nearby city.

Price then drove them to the coffee house to meet Clinton after vetting them for about a half-hour. (more…)

• The original investigation named 178 educators in the corruption, including 38 principals, as participants in cheating. • More than 80 confessed. • The investigators said they confirmed cheating in 44 of 56 schools they examined. • The investigators conducted more than 2,100 interviews and examined more than 800,000 documents in what is likely the most wide-ranging investigation into test-cheating in a public school district ever conducted in United States history.  (Full Backstory)

In 2009 President Obama’s Education Department named the Atlanta School Superintendent in charge of the racketeering “School Superintendent of The Year”, the educational equivalent of the Nobel Prize.

• More than three dozen educators were indicted in 2013. • 21 educators pled guilty before trial. • 12 Educators and Administrators went to trial and faced felony charges. • 11 of the 12 were found guilty!

After a 5 month trial and more than eight days of jury deliberation resulting in guilty convictions for those 11 Atlanta Public School educators, teachers and administrators, the sentences came Tuesday.

In a stunning development Judge Baxter gave each of the guilty educators a chance to mitigate their sentences with a simple admission of, and acceptance of, guilt.

But the educators defied the request and failed to release themselves of the Dindu Nuffin mentality. Judge Baxter was not pleased. (more…)

MEMPHIS, Tennessee — CCTV Surveillance video released on Monday shows a group of high school students beating a man at a Tennessee gas station. Police said it was a large group of Northwest Prep Academy High School students.

When you consider the expectation of the Liberal Media, and requests of the grievance industry, it becomes obvious the gas station customers were to blame.

The leadership within all black advocacy groups continually state: “they should never have gotten out of their cars“.

Black Lives Matter ?

The U.S. State Department is set to officially identify another harbor for John Kerry’s boat storage during the winter. The Frank Marshall Davis Golf and Tennis Resort.

The president informed Congress of his intent to remove Cuba from the ‘State Sponsors of Terror’ list, a key step in his push to normalize relations with Havana. Lawmakers have 45 days to review the president’s decision before it can be formally approved.

The first advocacy for “The Safari Principle” surfaced prior to the George Zimmerman trial, in the summer of 2012, when the professionally aggrieved first began the meme: “He shouldn’t have gotten out of his car”.

Historically we used to blame the victim by saying he/she was in the wrong place at the wrong time. However, politically it became too difficult to define where the wrong places were, and simultaneously legislators continued to struggle defining the right vs. wrong times people were allowed to be in these places.

In order to protect the criminal class a more specific rule was needed.

After various opinions were considered eventually the advocates settled upon The Safari Principle – A selected narrative used throughout 2012/2013 as a point of advocacy driving home the belief that George Zimmerman had no right to follow, then exit his vehicle, when he saw a suspicious Trayvon Martin peering through windows and casing houses.

The “Safari Principle” evolved to further claim ‘if you do get out of your car, you deserve what you get’ with the implication by the left-wingers’  that young black males cannot control their behavior. (more…)
