A few things become concerning with the information coming out.   At the top of that list comes the fact most of the terrorists *travelled to* the country to carry out the attack passing through multiple security levels.
New York Times […]  The building’s blueprints were studied, down to the ventilation ducts. The attack was rehearsed and the team dispatched, slipping undetected through Kenya’s porous borders, often patrolled by underpaid — and deeply corrupt — border guards.

A day or two before the attack, powerful belt-fed machine guns were secretly stashed in a shop in the mall with the help of a colluding employee, officials say. At least one militant had even packed a change of clothes so he could slip out with fleeing civilians after the killings were done. (more…)

Stop me when you’ve heard this one before.   Three black teenagers punch a…..  [this should not be a surprise when you consider THIS]
NEW JERSEY – Three New Jersey boys, two age 13 and one 14, have been arrested and charged with killing a homeless man after allegedly stalking and killing him in what police are calling a game of ‘knockout.’
The teens are accused of following Ralph Santiago, 46, and punching him in the back of the head in broad daylight in Hoboken, New Jersey, on September 10.
He fell against a fence and snapped his neck, killing him. His body was left on the quiet residential street before it was discovered by a passerby.
The boys were taken into custody and charged on Friday after prosecutors released surveillance images of the suspects in the hopes of identifying whoever killed Mr Santiago. (more…)

NEW YORK – The former NFL player whose home was broken  into and trashed by some 300 partying teens held a picnic for veterans Saturday  and to give the guilty students a chance to help clean the home and their  consciences, but to his dismay only four of them showed.

Brian Holloway’s Labor Day weekend was ruined  when he got the call that his house in upstate New York lay in shambles, and  immediately went on a crusade against teen lawlessness and drug abuse, posting  photos of the teens on his website. (more…)

McCOOK – Texas Department of Public Safety troopers briefly detained and then released about 20 people suspected of being in the country illegally Saturday morning on a farmer’s land 24 miles north of central Mission, the landowner said.
About 8 a.m. Saturday, Lee Adams said he noticed “a lot of activity” in the brush on his large rural property. He called a DPS trooper, who called for backup. A group of troopers – which included five cars and two helicopters – eventually rounded up a group of people who appeared to possibly be in the country illegally, Adams said.
But in less than an hour, the cars and helicopters scattered, allowing the people they detained to do the same. (more…)

(Via UK Daily Mail)  Americans were injured in a terror attack by  as many as 10 gunmen at a Nairobi, Kenya, shopping center that has left at least  40 people dead and as many as 300 injured – a female Canadian diplomat and a  pregnant popular Kenyan radio journalist are among the dead.
The US State Department has confirmed that  four Americans were hurt in the mass shooting Saturday in a statement issued  from the US Embassy in Nairobi, but declined to give names or an exact number of  Americans hurt. Americans are not  believed to be among the dead at this time. The dead range in ages from two to  78-years-old, according to a Kenyan government official. Five hostages were  released around 2am local time.

American Elaine Dang, 26, [pictured above] has been identified  as one of the Americans injured in the brutal terror attack.  (continue reading)
NYT Photojournalist on the scene:

[…]  The mall is Nairobi’s most high-end shopping center, completely up to Western standards, with movie theaters, nice cafes, supermarkets and a casino. Pretty much anything you need. I’ve been there, so I knew the layout inside.  (pictures and first hand account – CLICK HERE)

Taking lessons from Benghazi Cover-Up International, the local Washington DC Law Enforcement Leadership give the local SWAT Team Leader the Africom Commander, General Carter Ham, treatment…..
(Via GateWayPundit) On Wednesday, BBC News reported the indefensible discovery that the D.C. Capitol Police’s SWAT team was ready to neutralize the Navy Yard mass shooting.
But, the highly trained and heavily armed, elite tactical group was, instead, ordered to stand down and leave the scene.  The Capitol Police promised a full investigation.
Today, BBC News reported more disturbing information.  No one has talked to the SWAT team members.  Not even for the protocol debriefing.  But, not only have members of the SWAT team not been contacted, the department “has installed a new leader”.  Without explanation.

This is why we use the term “Decepticons” to identify big government Republicans who are as complicit in the elimination of freedom.   Jeb Bush is one such decepticon who is trying to federalize education with the guise of “Common Core Curriculum”. 
One parent found out the hard way what happens when you do not comply.

First the demands of The Jeb – Former Fla. GOP Gov. Jeb Bush, consummate politician and 2016 presidential aspirant, has now bitterly accused opponents of his federal education schemes of possessing “purely political” motives. Projection, anyone?

Having previously suggested that critics of the so-called Common Core standards program are crazy, ignorant and lying, Bush piled on at a National Press Club appearance this week. Jeb the Insult Comic Dog did not hold back. Not only is the growing anti-Fed Ed movement of parents, teachers, school board members, academics, privacy advocates and state legislators of all stripes “purely political,” Bush sniped, but the Common Core backlash that’s causing him conniption fits is also opposed to academic excellence.
Yep. If you question Jeb Bush and his Big Business/Big Government cronies, you stand foursquare against student achievement and intellectual rigor. Pay attention, all you informed moms and dads who have raised pointed, carefully researched questions about the costs, quality, validity, constitutionality and intrusiveness of Common Core. Bush thinks you are “purely political” beasts who are recklessly harming your own kids’ scholastic advancement. (more…)

We previously outlined the story of Brian Holloway. 300+ Teens broke into his house, threw a party, stole items, broke windows and doors, spray painted the walls, and created over $20,000 in damages.   Holloway began finding the party-goers because they were bragging on social media, twitter, facebook, and posting pictures of themselves. So he copied the pictures to his own website. Now the parents of the kids who destroyed his house are threatening to sue him for exposing their sons/daughters.

“Take my kid’s name down or I’m gonna press charges against you”.

The full story of the parents response is HERE.

Perhaps the community would be better served if Holloway provided even more sunlight by posting the names and identities of the people who are threatening to sue him.
Just a thought.

Apparently interest exists into our records requests….
OCALA, Fla., September 19, 2013 — The  Conservative Tree House, a political blog which detailedly reported on the  Trayvon Martin shooting’s aftermath, is now due to receive documents specified  in a Freedom of Information Act Request.
These documents pertain to how the office of Florida State Attorney  Angela Corey and her team handled the prosecution of George Zimmerman. Last  week, The Jacksonville Times-Union revealed that Corey is under state  investigation for allegedly illegal actions in firing her office’s information  technology director, Ben Kruidbos.  (continue reading)
