6th Amendment Suspension – You No Longer Have The Right To Confront Your Accuser ? The New America….

What you saw play out within the George Zimmerman trial with “Witness #8” is taking on national proportions.   It is one thing to protect a witness, it is quite another thing to intentionally create an entire fabrication of false information simply to hide the origin of the accusation which frames the charge(s).   In essence, lying to the court.

(6th Amendment) In all criminal prosecutions, the accused shall enjoy the right to a speedy and public trial, by an impartial jury of the state and district wherein the crime shall have been committed, which district shall have been previously ascertained by law, and to be informed of the nature and cause of the accusation; to be confronted with the witnesses against him; to have compulsory process for obtaining witnesses in his favor, and to have the assistance of counsel for his defense.  (link)

A slide from a presentation is seen about a secretive information-sharing program run by the U.S. Drug Enforcement Administration's Special Operations Division(Reuters) – A secretive U.S. Drug Enforcement Administration unit is funneling information from intelligence intercepts, wiretaps, informants and a massive database of telephone records to authorities across the nation to help them launch criminal investigations of Americans.
Although these cases rarely involve national security issues, documents reviewed by Reuters show that law enforcement agents have been directed to conceal how such investigations truly begin – not only from defense lawyers but also sometimes from prosecutors and judges.
The undated documents show that federal agents are trained to “recreate” the investigative trail to effectively cover up where the information originated, a practice that some experts say violates a defendant’s Constitutional right to a fair trial. If defendants don’t know how an investigation began, they cannot know to ask to review potential sources of exculpatory evidence – information that could reveal entrapment, mistakes or biased witnesses.

Let Us Be Absolutely CRYSTAL CLEAR – Because We Want To Move On To the Challenges of The Days… And do not have time to worry about associations and intents…

patriotA recent comment brings something to light….  I am editing out identity not only because I have no desire to point out a specific person, but because in a larger text it apparently relates to growing constituency:

 ….. although I’ve been following the Zimmerman trial and post-trial postings for many weeks.  I understand and agree with [xxxxxxx] comments.  I also had [xxxxxx]-like feelings about many of the religious comments posted here.  Not for my own sake as a libertarian atheist, but for the sake of my liberal white friends who I would like to refer to this site.  I’ve often thought, “I wish these people would tone it down with the Christian talk.  My friends are going to take one brief look at this site and dismiss it as a bunch of right-wing religious nuts.  They won’t stay long enough to get the kernel of truth spoken here about the BGI and its government co-conspirators.”  But I decided it wasn’t my place to ask this community to alter its commentary to suit the prejudices of my liberal white friends.  If my friends are too close-minded to look past the religious talk then that really is their problem. I believe that much of the Christian commentary here is unnecessary and is frequently off point….. 

What would possibly make you think I/we/us would want to attract a following of “liberal white friends” to this site?    The descriptions you then attach to those persons fill identification (check boxes) of exactly who I/we/us  would NEVER WANT to associate with.  Period. (more…)

A Tale Of Two School Bus Drivers – Two Videos To Share Two Decision Points….

On the left you have John Moody and on the right you have Charles Poland.

Both men had things in common.    Both were school bus drivers.  Both were almost the exact same age, Moody 64 and Poland 66.   But that’s about where the similarity stops.
Charles Poland gave his life to protect “his kids” when a gunman walked on to his Alabama bus and demanded two of the passengers.   His story is HERE, and here’s the video:

Did Race Play A larger Role Than Initially Reported?

gulfport bus driverA recent interview with the Gulfport Florida bus driver, John Moody, reveals he just didn’t want to intervene.
Moody reportedly retired after the school district launched an internal
investigation. The case was turned over to the state attorney’s office, but
prosecutors said Thursday Moody’s actions didn’t rise to the level of child
neglect.  (link)
Unlike the previously released bus footage, the race of the driver appears to play a larger role than initially evidenced.  The local police asked the District Attorney to file negligence charges against Mr. Moody.   The DA chose not to pursue charges.
Watch the video and you’ll see the issue:


What is really at play here, in addition to the 15-year-old thugs who beat the 13-year-old white boy, is *why* the bus driver did not engage to assist. One can only imagine how the BGI and NAACP would approach the issue if the driver were white, the thugs white, and the younger victim black.
In this case, according to the Sharpton, Jackson and Jealous contingent, this beatdown could not be considered racist because the victim was white.  And all media efforts are desperate now, framed to protect the bus driver from any consequences to his lack of action. (more…)

My Fair Lady Meets Modern BGI…. Learning From Rachel

Good article at American Thinker – with one flaw. The last line.
Learning from Rachel Jeantel – To quote Nancy Pelosi, we can now see what’s in the Zimmerman-Martin case “without the fog of the controversy”. I think the biggest lesson to be learned was from Rachel Jeantel, a friend of Trayvon Martin that testified at the trial.
Witness 8
Rachel Jeantel has just had her 15 minutes. Predictable packaged responses full of defensive fury were covered very well by Thomas Lifson’s AT article. The left has exhausted her value by attacking and chiding all white people about the racist thoughts they have decided we are feeling. They skipped the fact-gathering and evidence stage and went right for the punishment in a fawning and self-righteous defense of someone not really under attack. I have to hand it to libs, they stand by their own and as long as anyone remembers the girl’s name, she will be one of their own. Their message regarding Ms. Jeantel is: (more…)

The Discussion of Things….

Some wonder if I have lost my marbles.   Perhaps, but it is the same set of marbles I have been chasing since the formal age of eight.   Without any formal training; well, sort of.
You see, around eight I wrote about whistling.
Whistling, the noise you make when you blow energy from your lungs through pursed tongue.
The energy you release is infinite.
Meaning you create it, you have made it, you have transferred your own capacity to make energy into an active state, projected it, and it is ridiculous to think it just disappears once you can no longer hear it……  it still exists, because you created it, you just can no longer identify it, locate it, or reasonably quantify it.
But the energy itself must still exist.   Somewhere.  There is no anti-energy void around us to take it. (more…)

Pencils

The capacity to speak French is not unusual for a 3 year old;  Unless you realize the child is not living in France, and does not have French family, then it becomes odd.  Or something.  Leads to big chairs and stares by bigger people toward little people.
The truth of language is as obvious as Cain having married his sister.   Damn, Phoenicians.

If you want to find a belief, it is best not to talk to a priest;  Because somewhere along the voyage of his questioning – he encountered Theology teachers.   The questioning necessarily stopped.   Just ask, you’ll see….   The questioning always stops. (more…)
