When is a Terrorist Attack not a Terrorist Attack?  When it’s carried out by the Taliban who the White House claims is not a terrorist group….  or something.

SUMMERVILLE, SC (WCSC) — A South Carolina man was killed in a terrorist attack in Afghanistan Thursday, according to his family.
Matthew Fineran, 42, of Summerville, was killed in a shooting, his family confirmed. He was the father of six children.
A spokesman for Praetorian Standard Incorporated says three of its employees were killed in a shooting at the airport in Kabul. A fourth employee was wounded, according to the company.
The Pentagon says the gunman who killed the three American contractors in an attack Thursday at the Kabul airport was wearing an Afghan uniform. (more…)

McDonalds sought to deflect pressure from the BGI and Professional Left over Franchise Law (NLRB), employment, and pay rates. So they took a proactive position and hired a black CEO. Three consecutive years of failure, dismal sales and market share losses ensued. The worst leadership run in the history of the organization.
However, now Al Sharpton and the Obama administration (using the NLRB) are likely to strike back.  Yet consider this: immediately the stock soared on the news of Thompson’s firing;  which would indicate the shareholders would rather face Sharpton/Obama than deal with a continued idiot at the helm.
BLOOMBERG – McDonald’s Corp., the world’s largest restaurant chain, will replace Chief Executive Officer Don Thompson with one of his top lieutenants following the company’s worst U.S. sales slump in more than a decade.
Chief Brand Officer Steve Easterbrook will take the reins when Thompson steps down on March 1, the Oak Brook, Illinois-based company said in a statement Wednesday. Easterbrook, currently a senior executive vice president, also will join the board, filling Thompson’s vacated seat, the company said. Thompson, 51, had been in the CEO job fewer than three years.
“With sales stagnant for this long, there’s been a lot of push for change,” said Will Slabaugh, an analyst at Stephens Inc. in Little Rock, Arkansas. “They had to show investors they’re serious about changing and improving sales.” (more…)

You just can’t make this stuff up. An initial meeting to discuss the possibility of a citizen review board had to be cancelled because the Ferguson “FTP” protestors break out in a violent chamber rampage… Massive Irony = The police had to be called to restore order.
ST. LOUIS • An open meeting at City Hall on the creation of a civilian oversight board of the police department devolved into a melee on Wednesday night, further exposing the city’s deep divisions over race and law enforcement.

The meeting held by the aldermanic public safety committee, designed to seek public comment, lasted over an hour with little event as residents ticked off the pros and cons of having a civilian board to review police conduct and procedures.
But the crowd became unsettled when police officers began testifying in opposition to the bill. At times, Alderman Terry Kennedy, who chairs the committee, struggled to keep order. The noise in the room spiked as police officers attempted to testify. (more…)

Eric Holder’s replacement holds the same, the exact same, legal world view as AG Eric Holder. Additionally, I find it interesting than none of the “Senators” find it valuable to ask for Lynch’s legal view on “Disparate Impact”.
However, her view is evident in the answer to this question. The ideological point at the end of the perspective essentially outlines that it is unlawful to ask for the legal work status of employment applicants. This protects the illegal alien from employment disqualification, and bars the employer to finding out the legal work status.
WASHINGTON DC – President Barack Obama’s nominee to replace Eric Holder as Attorney General of the United States, Loretta Lynch, said on Wednesday during a Senate Judiciary Committee confirmation hearing that she thinks illegal aliens have the same right to work in America as American citizens do.

“Senator, I believe the right and the obligation to work is one that is shared by everyone in this country, regardless of how they came here,” Lynch said when asked by Sen. Jeff Sessions (R-AL) who has a greater right to work: Illegal aliens, or lawful immigrants and American citizens? (more…)

Charles Blow is a racial antagonist, it’s what he does – it’s all he does. He wrote at length about how angry he was because his son was detained by a Yale Campus Police Officer – #BlackLivesMatter and #FTP in full swing. However, what he didn’t say was that the Campus officer was black, and/or that the Campus police Chief is also black.
Guess that doesn’t support his narrative….
(VIA WASHINGTON EXAMINER) On Saturday, Blow wrote on Twitter that he was “fuming” over a call he received from his son, a third-year student at Yale. He wrote that his son was “accosted” and held up at gunpoint by a Yale policeman because he fit the description of a suspect. Blow’s son, Tahj Blow, is an ecology and evolutionary biology major, according to the Yale Daily News.
In follow-up tweets related to the incident, Blow said, “This is exactly why I have no patience for people trying to convince me that the fear these young black men feel isn’t real.” He also tweeted the phrases “I can’t breathe” and “Black lives matter,” both of which are associated with two unarmed black men killed by white police officers in separate incidents in Missouri and New York.

Cutting to brass tacks – essentially what the White House and State Department are doing is using OFA (Organizing For America), the activist group who spearheaded the voter activity for President Obama, into V15, a group intended to remove Benjamin Netanyahu from office. OFA was/is the Astroturf political movement funded by Large Democrat Donors and Left-Wing Organizations.
V15 is saying they are not using the money from the State Dept, delivered via OneVoice, to eliminate Netanyahu, but rather just to help their GOTV organizational efforts. Profound semantics at play….
WASHINGTON – A U.S. State Department-funded group is financing an Israeli campaign to oust Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, and has hired former Obama aides to help with its grassroots organizing efforts.
U.S.-based activist group OneVoice International has partnered with V15, an “independent grassroots movement” in Israel that is actively opposing Netanyahu’s party in the upcoming elections, Ha’aretz reported on Monday. Former national field director for President Obama’s 2012 reelection campaign Jeremy Bird is also reportedly involved in the effort.
OneVoice development and grants officer Christina Taler said the group would be working with V15 on voter registration and get-out-the-vote efforts but would not engage in overtly partisan activities. She said OneVoice and V15 are still formalizing the partnership.
While V15 has not endorsed any particular candidates, it is working to oppose Netanyahu in the March elections. (more…)

“He shouldn’t have gotten out of the car”, a phrase heard consistently in both the Trayvon Martin and Mike Brown shootings. In essence the argument being both citizen George Zimmerman and officer Darren Wilson held responsibility for the outcome because they exited their vehicle.
We have discussed this viewpoint as the “Safari Principle“, however now the Ferguson/Saint Louis police department is considering the argument -under the auspices of “tactical retreat”- as a standard policy.
SAINT LOUIS – Like many officers involved in deadly force encounters, Darren Wilson said his training took over when he shot Michael Brown in Ferguson.
But what if Wilson had been trained differently?
The national upheaval from Brown’s death, and some others since, has put enormous pressure on law enforcement to find ways to control people’s behavior while using less violence. One possibility — simple but repugnant to some officers — is to teach police to back away from certain difficult situations until help can arrive.
The concept is known as “tactical retreat” or sometimes “tactical withdrawal” or “tactical restraint.”
“We add the word, ‘tactical’ and not just ‘retreating’ or ‘giving up’ because that’s what makes it palatable for police officers,” explained Seth Stoughton, a criminal law professor at the University of South Carolina. The former Florida officer is a nationally prominent advocate for applying the softer approach. (more…)

The actual email (HatTip Gateway Pundit) from Saint Louis Police Chief Jon Belmar to the conspiring political scheme team adds more sunlight toward their endeavors.  What a slimy crew:

Some of the behind-the-scene details are quite revealing.  Including Belmar specifically stating the security at Ferguson PD was insufficient considering the “potential protests problems”.  It was this request which was refused by Missouri Governor Nixon.
Additionally, you’ll note the pressure to make Officer Darren Wilson resign or Rep Clay would not be permitted to assist; and concerns of their agenda being exposed with the note “guard against making the presser appear to be anti-Law Enforcement”. (more…)

Obviously many people may find this alarming, however it is entirely predictable.
The entire construct of the “Scheme Team’s” objectives is to file civil (wrongful death) lawsuits. This is their version of justice, albeit financial justice. The filing of wrongful death lawsuits is the entire reason why the Daryl Parks and Benjamin Crump law firm exist, and the entire reason why they were called upon by Mike Brown’s parents, Lesley McSpadden and Mike Brown.

In order for Benjamin Crump, Daryl Parks, and in this case local attorney Anthony Gray, to get the leverage they need for financial judgment they first need to establish a position of implied wrongful death. Ben Crump calls this “first base”, and requires “an arrest” – not a conviction, just an arrest. The arrest establishes the “probable cause” basis for both a criminal trial, and, more importantly, civil litigation.
The “probable cause” is what they need. This is also why in both the Trayvon Martin shooting and the Mike Brown shooting the family asks for an arrest: “all we want is an arrest”. Without a preceding basis for an arrest the hurdles to gain a wrongful death civil reward are much higher. (more…)
