U.S. Kangaroo Court orders Iran to pay for 9/11 damages

I have a few questions on this!!!

I thought that George W. Bush invaded Afghanistan because he blamed them for 9/11.

I wonder how come this kangaroo court didn't order Afghanistan to pay part of the $6 billion settlement?

Perhaps because Afghanistan is now a puppet government run by the American Empire?

And how come the kangaroo court didn't order Iraq to pay part of the $6 billion settlement?

Oh, that's right, we invaded Iraq not because of 9/11, but because of those bogus, non-existent weapons of mass destruction or WMDs.

Why didn't the kangaroo court order Saudi Arabia to pay part of the $6 billion settlement? I thought almost all of the people who hijacked the planes involved in 9/11 were from Saudi Arabia?

Oh, the members of the Saudi royalty are good buddies with the American rulers? I guess that is why!

And why on earth did this kangaroo court order Iran to pay $6 billion. I don't ever remember Iran being accused of 9/11???

Maybe the American Empire is planning on invading Iran and the court order will give Emperor Obama a lame excuse for the invasion!

I suspect this is all about politics, rather then justice.

Pakistan food - Zaidi's Grill

What's a major difference between Pakistani and Indian cuisine? Beef. Proscribed in Hindu India, it's a major protein in Pakistan. Pakistani cooks feature it in a variety of ways, in stews like beef nihari in a lushly spiced sauce, and in kebabs showcasing ground beef (seekh) and butter-soft beef bihari. It's even an understated part of haleem, a thick blend of lentils and barley. If beef doesn't set you afire, maybe the yogurt-simmered chicken qorma will.

2 former Lynwood council members found guilty of corruption

In this article two Lynwood city council members were found guilty of corruption. Lynwood is a suburb of Los Angeles.

Louis Byrd and Fernando Pedroza created jobs for themselves on city commissions that appeared to do little, if any, work.

The added pay boosted the part-time council members' income from less than $10,000 a year to as much as $112,000 in one year for Byrd and $72,000 for Pedroza, prosecutors said.

Court searches are also for drugs

I suspect a large number of the people arrested forgot to remove their recreational drugs from their property before entering the airport and being searched by the Homeland Security thugs.

I suspect the same thing is true when the local piggies search you before you enter a county or city government building.

In this article a Mesa woman was arrested when the piggies found a vial of cocaine in her purse.

If the piggies were only looking for weapons they would have ignored the vial.

But of course these searches are not about stealing the guns from people who might want to kill the mayor or a judge, but shaking down people for trivial and victimless drug war crimes.

Jesus, don't these pigs have any real criminals to hunt down???

I always thought mixing government and business was called fascism. If that is true the Arizona Commerce Authority is certainly a fascist organization.

Medical-marijuana OK for sleeping disorders, skin conditions sought

Will Humble and his boss Arizona Governor Jan Brewer are both drug war tyrants who are attempting to throw a monkey wrench into Arizona's medical marijuana laws and prevent people from using marijuana so don't expect Will Humble to approve any new uses for medical marijuana.

Will Humble has created a clever Catch 22 which he can use as an excuse not to allow any new uses for medical marijuana.

He says he will allow new uses for medical marijuana only after their are documented cases of medical research that show medical marijuana is an effective cure for the new illness.

On paper that sounds reasonable, but since for all practical purposes the DEA will not let anyone perform medical research on marijuana there never will be any research done that proves marijuana helps anything.

Yes, the DEA will let some people do research on pot, but it only seems that the DEA will let you do research that proves what the head in the sand folks at the DEA say, which is marijuana has absolutely no medical uses whatsoever.

Of course if I had my say I would re-legalize ALL drugs for all uses including recreational uses. The government doesn't have any business telling people what they can and can't put in their bodies.

Drought having an effect on pot, too

The sad side of the article is that the state of Ohio is paying large amounts of money to fly cops around in helicopters searching for marijuana fields.

The good news is that the program sounds like a dismal failure.

Despite the huge amounts of money being spent by the Ohio Attorney General's office flying narcs around in helicopters looking for pot plants only 80 stinking plants have been found.

Warm weather

When I got up this morning and was walking back to the city from the desert it seem rather warm, but I am sure it was all because of the humidity.

Anonymous - a·non·y·mous

My life has been destroyed by a number of anonymous liars who have been spreading lies that I am a government snitch.

I suspect these anonymous liars are mostly members of the Arizona Libertarian Party.

Cafeína - Caffeine

La cafeína es un alcaloide del grupo de las xantinas, sólido cristalino, blanco y de sabor amargo, que actúa como una droga psicoactiva, levemente disociativa y estimulante por su acción antagonista no selectiva de los receptores de adenosina.3 La cafeína fue descubierta en 1819 por el químico alemán Friedrich Ferdinand Runge: fue él quien acuñó el término Koffein, un compuesto químico en el café, el cual pasaría posteriormente al español como cafeína. La cafeína recibe también otros nombres relativos a los productos que la contienen, como la guaranina (encontrada en la guaraná), mateína (encontrada en el mate) y teína (encontrada en el té), las cuales contienen además algunos alcaloides adicionales como los estimulantes cardíacos teofilina y teobromina y a menudo otros compuestos químicos como los polifenoles, los cuales pueden formar complejos insolubles con la cafeína.

La cafeína puede encontrarse en cantidades variables en las semillas, las hojas y los frutos de algunas plantas, donde actúa como un pesticida natural que paraliza y mata ciertos insectos que se alimentan de las plantas. Es consumida por los humanos principalmente en infusiones extraídas del fruto de la planta del café y de las hojas del arbusto del té, así como también en varias bebidas y alimentos que contienen productos derivados de la nuez de cola. Otras fuentes incluyen la yerba mate, el fruto de la Guaraná y el acebo de Yaupón.

En los humanos, la cafeína es un estimulante del sistema nervioso central que produce un efecto temporal de restauración del nivel de alerta y eliminación de la somnolencia. Las bebidas que contiene cafeína, tales como el café, el té, algunas bebidas no alcohólicas (especialmente los refrescos de cola) y las bebidas energéticas gozan una gran popularidad. La cafeína es la sustancia psicoactiva más ampliamente consumida en el mundo. En Norteamérica, el 90% de los adultos consumen cafeína todos los días. En los Estados Unidos, la Food and Drug Administration (Administración de Drogas y Alimentos) se refiere a la cafeína como una "sustancia alimenticia generalmente reconocida como segura que se utiliza para múltiples propósitos".

La cafeína tiene propiedades diuréticas, si se administra en dosis suficientes a individuos que no tienen tolerancia a ella. Los consumidores regulares, sin embargo, desarrollan una fuerte tolerancia a este efecto, y los estudios generalmente no han podido demostrar la creencia general de que el consumo regular de bebidas cafeinadas contribuye significativamente a la deshidratación.

Cafeína - Caffeine

Caffeine was almost outlawed at the same time that cocaine was (1914), and for the same reasons. The reason that cocaine was outlawed was because of the fear that superhuman "cocaine fiends" would go on a violent rampage and rape white women and shoot white men. [Those racist anti-drug crusaders said the same thing about marijuana - Let a Negro smoke one marijuana cigarette and it would cause him to go out and rape 6 white woman]

Police departments across the nation switched to larger caliber pistols in fear of the "cocaine fiends".

There was a huge deal of ignorance and hysteria about drugs at the time and, when the first drug prohibition laws were first crafted (circa 1910), caffeine was included along with cocaine. The only reason caffeine escaped being illegal along with cocaine is because someone pointed out that outlawing caffeine would mean outlawing coffee, tea, and chocolate, among other things [I am not sure if that reason is correct. After all cocaine was made illegal and it was one of the active ingredients in Coca Cola, but I do know that the idiots in the Federal government wanted to make caffeine illegal just like they made cocaine illegal]

Harry J. Anslinger is almost single handedly responsible for the "drug war"

Sadly most of the insane and unconstitutional American drug war was created by a nut job named Harry J. Anslinger.

Some quotes from Harry J. Anslinger. I don't agree with any of them, but they are a good example of how sick the people are who created and are now maintaining the insane and unconstitutional American "drug war" which we have exported to the rest of the world.

The reason I say I don't agree with them here is because some of those phony baloney Arizona Libertarian liars who have been telling people that I am a government snitch will probably say that I agree with nut job Harry J. Anslinger simply because I have his nutty quotes on this web page. Again I don't agree with any of the nutty quotes made by nut job Harry J. Anslinger.

• There are 100,000 total marijuana smokers in the US, and most are Negroes, Hispanics, Filipinos and entertainers. Their Satanic music, jazz and swing, result from marijuana usage
• Reefer makes darkies think they're as good as white men.
• the primary reason to outlaw marijuana is its effect on the degenerate races.
• Marijuana is an addictive drug which produces in its users insanity, criminality, and death.
• Marihuana leads to pacifism and communist brainwashing.
• Marijuana is the most violence-causing drug in the history of mankind.
• Marijuana is an addictive drug which produces in its users insanity, criminality, and death.
• You smoke a joint and you're likely to kill your brother.
• marijuana causes white women to seek sexual relations with Negroes

In that racist movie I remember them telling us that if a Black man smokes a marijuana cigarette it would cause him to rape 6 white women.

As teenagers we mostly thought the movie was a silly joke.

They gave us almost the same silly propaganda on alcohol as the did on marijuana.

When I went out to the desert the first time to get drunk as a teenager I thought the drinking experience would be like a trip on LSD.

I think I drank one beer and then quit after that because I was afraid I would have a bad trip and hallucinate too much.

On book that has some interesting info on both Harry J. Anslinger and the history of the insane and unconstitutional American drug war is the book

The Emperor Wears No Clothes

And of course if the only information you have on the insane drug war is the information you received in government schools and other government propaganda sources the book will probably make you end any support you have for the insane and unconstitutional drug war.

Sadly the drug war is nothing more then a jobs program for cops, prosecutors, judges, prison guards, public defenders, and of course the folks that build prisons.

Scottsdale School District - Papers Please

I bet Hitler, Stalin and Mao would have been proud of the police state government bureaucrats that run the Scottsdale School District.

No marijuana lanyards or marijuana t-shirts either

This article is pretty much the same article from the previous paragraph, but I just highlighted the part on how the government bureaucrats will send any student home who wears their required govenrment issued photo ID from a marijuana lanyard.

Jesus, with all the time and money these government bureaucrats spend on turning their schools into a prison like environment I wonder if they will have any time or money to educate the children.

That's assuming the schools are still here to educate the children.

I suspect many of the government bureaucrats who run the schools think that the purpose of the schools are to provide the government bureaucrats who run them with cushy, high paying life time jobs.

Is the sky falling over pot law?

Montini mentioned the 14 county attornies who wrote a letter to Jan Brewer demanding that she shut down Arizona's medical marijuana program, but he didn't mention them by name.

They are:

• Ken Angle
  Graham County Attorney
• Brad Carlyon
  Navajo County Attorney
• Daisy Flores
  Gila County Attorney
• Barbara La Wall
  Pima County Attorney
• Bill Mongomery
  Maricopa County Attorney
• Derek Papier
  Greenlee County Attorney
• Sheila Polk
  Yavapai County Attorney
• Ed Rheinheimer
  Cochise County Attorney
• George Silva
  Santa Cruz County Attorney
• Jon R. Smith
  Yuma County Attorney
• Matt Smith
  Mohave County Attorney
• James P. Walsh
  Pinal County Attorney
• Michael Whiting
  Apache County Attorney

Well we did that and we got the medical marijuana laws passed which stopped the state of Arizona from jailing sick people who need marijuana for their medicine.

Of course these 14 government tyrants who are also county prosecutors for their counties didn't take their own advice in this case.

Instead they wrote a letter to the governor and asked her to illegally stop Prop 203, which allows the people of Arizona to smoke marijuana for medical reasons.

No wonder the Founders passed the 2nd Amendment. They knew there will always be government tyrants who think they are above the law, like these 14 county attorneys.

Full moon

Also a full moon makes it harder to sleep in your eyes are pointed in the direction of the full moon. I had to turn my head around and look away from the full moon a couple of times in the last few days so I could go to sleep.

Arizona CPS workers steal 27 children from their parents every day

That means the cold hearted government bureaucrats at CPS steal about 27 kids every day from their loving parents.

The article didn't say this, but I suspect a large number of those kids were stolen from their parents because they committed the victimless crime of smoking marijuana or using some other illegal drug.

If I was a kid I would rather be raised by my real mom even if she did smoke pot.

I would not have any desire to be raised in a foster home by some uncaring government bureaucrat who was raising me only because of the money the government gave them.

Drug war victim crushes 7 police vehicles with farm tractor

Pot smoker crushes 7 cop cars with tractor

Remember, just because something is legal doesn't make it morally right. And just because something is illegal doesn't make it morally wrong.

A number of legal scholars will tell you that America's insane war on drugs is unconstitutional per the 10th Amendment. Sadly the Supreme court doesn't agree with them.

Even if the Supreme Court thinks the "war on drugs" is constitutional, a large number of Americans including the web master think the "war on drugs" is immoral, illogical and just plain wrong.

America now jails more people per capita then any other country in the world and this is because of America's insane, illogical and unconstitutional war on drug.

Yes, in the eyes of the government Roger Pion is a criminal.

But in the eyes of many other Americas Roger Pion is a freedom fighter who is fed up with America's insane war on drugs.

Obama administration doesn't to live up to its transparency promise

But what choice do you have in the next election?

You can vote for Emperor Obama who is just a clone of Emperor Bush.

You can vote for Mitt Romney who will probably be just a clone of Emperor Obama, Emperor Bush and wanna be Emperor John McCain.

If you are fed up with the system try voting for the Libertarian guy running for President.

Let's fact it, if you vote for the Democrat or Republican guys running for President you are guaranteed to get a police state thug for President.

Try voting for the Libertarian guy this time. The worst that can happen is that you will get a police state thug that is no worse then Emperor Obama or Emperor Romney.

On the other hand the Libertarian might actually keep his promises and attempt to make America less of a police state.

Please vote Libertarian you have nothing to lose.

I have to admit I am biased because I am a Libertarian.

But I am also made at the Arizona Libertarian Party because it is starting to sound like a few of their alleged Libertarian members destroyed my life by spreading lies that I was a government snitch.

Even with that in mind I am asking you to give the Libertarian guy a chance. He certainly won't be any worse then Emperor Obama or Emperor Romney.

More on the Second Amendment

The Second Amendment does not grant the right to keep and bear arms; it validates the right which had existed for centuries prior in English Common Law, and was enunciated in the English Bill of Rights of 1688. The right has always been recognized as an individual right, applicable to individual citizens.

How Latin America is reinventing the war on drugs

Sheriffs and County Attorneys are hypocrites on Prop 203

When when it comes to the draconian laws that jail people for the victimless crime of using medical marijuana we did that and got Prop 203 passed, which legalized medical marijuana.

Of course the police and prosecutors don't like Prop 203 because it cuts into the "drug war" which is really a jobs program for overpaid and under worked cops and prosecutors.

Accoding to this article the cops and prosecutors are hypocrites who are not following the same advice they give us. Instead of attempting to repeal Prop 203 thru the system so they can continue arresting people for the victimless crime of marijuana use they simply asked Arizona Governor Jan Brewer to declare Prop 203 null and void.

The 13 Arizona Sheriff's that signed this discusting letter are:

• Sheriff Scott Mascher
  Yavapai County
• Sheriff Joseph Dedman
  Apache County
• Sheriff Ralph Ogden
  Yuma County
• Sheriff Preston Allred
  Graham County
• Sheriff Donald Lowery
  La Paz County
• Sheriff Thomas Sheahan
  Mohave County
• Sheriff Clarence Dupnik
  Pima County
• Sheriff Larry Dever
  Cochise County
• Sheriff John Armer
  Gila County
• Sheriff Steven Tucker
  Greenelee County
• Sheriff Joseph Arpaio
  Maricopa County
• Sheriff Joe Arpaio
  Maricopa County
• Sheriff Kelly Clark

• Sheriff Paul Babeu
  Pinal County

The "Drug War" is just a jobs program for overpaid and under worked cops

On Afghanistan, Romney and Obama are both war mongers

According to this article neither Obama or Romney want to debate about the war in Afghanistan. I suspect it is because they are both war mongers who support the war, while the American public no longer supports the war.

If you really want to end the war in Afghanistan vote Libertarian in 2012. Gary Johnson wants to end the war in Afghanistan.

Congresswoman Lois Capps forgets to report $41,000 in rental income

How does a Congressman or Congresswoman "forget" to report $41,000 in income they received from an employee that worked for them???

Look as a Libertarian I think taxes are stealing. Any time somebody points a gun to your head and demands a cut of the money in your wallet, that is stealing. Even if the person point the gun at your head is a government nanny who is demanding taxes.

The problem here is these government hypocrites expect us to obey the laws or be severally punished, while they routinely break the laws.

And of course that is more of the old "Do as I say, not as I do" line we always hear from our government masters.

Pot smoker kicked out of Olympics

According to this article an America judo athletic was booted from the Olympics because he tested positive for marijuana.

Give me a break, marijuana certainly will not enhance his performance, and in all probability it would probably lower his performance in a judo match.

Maybe if the guy was mainline speed before a match he should be booted because speed would give him an unfair advantage, but kicking the guy out because he tested positive for pot is insane.

It rained a little last night

There was also lots of cool lightening in the distance.

Also a big storm blew in. I left the place I have been sleeping and found a more protected place that was out of the storm to sleep.

But the storm quickly blew away and it got too hot, so I went back to the cooler desert to finish sleeping.

Also on my way out to the desert there seemed to be 5 or 6 kids who might have been following me and either wanted to rob me, or just beat me up because I am a homeless person.

I ditched them in the desert and was not robbed or beaten up, at least last night.

Obama's bogus birth certificate???

I guess he could be, but I want a little more proof before I start sprouting that story.

In this article by Vin Suprynowicz he says:

For those who have never done an Internet search on "Obama's birth certificate," it's common parlance on the Web that the document presented to reporters in such a cloak-and-dagger fashion by the White House lists the race of Obama's father as "African" when "Negro" would have been the standard usage in that era, lists the father's birth place as "Kenya" at a time before Kenya became a country, and gives the hospital a name which did not exist until it merged with another facility in 1971, a decade after his birth.

Snopes.com debunks most of this, fairly convincingly, but of course Snopes consists of a self-appointed couple whose politics lean to the left, in the first place.

Yes I know we have a tyrant for our President, but I doubt if the tyrant is also an illegal alien.

Warm Weather

I think the high was 110°F today but with the humidity it felt a lot hotter then that.

When I went to bed you could see lightning in the distant sky, but unlike yesterday it didn't rain.

Because of the warm weather I couldn't sleep and I woke up about 11:30.

I was very thirsty and walked a couple of miles to get some water.

I passed an irrigation ditch and decided to cool down in it. I soaked my clothing in water and it felt real nice.

Then I walked back to the desert and went back to sleep.

It was pretty easy to get back to sleep because despite the fact that I was soaking wet I was also nice and cool.

I woke up at about 4:15 which was 15 minutes later then I usually get up.

I still felt cool from the soaking I took in the irrigation ditch.

Wow even Los Angeles is hot!

But who am I to talk. I am just a homeless person that lives in the desert and I don't even have a cooler. And I don't need one either.

Heat wave, triple-digit temperatures hit Southern California

August 7, 2012 | 6:08 am

There's no way around it: It's going to be hot in Southern California this week.

Triple-digit temperatures are predicted for the San Fernando, Santa Clarita and Antelope valleys, with highs up to 108 degrees possible on Tuesday, said Andrew Rorke, a meteorologist with the National Weather Service. Other inland areas, including downtown Los Angeles, were expected to see highs in the 90s.

The beaches will likely be the "only comfortable place" this week, Rorke said, with temperatures in the 70-degree range.

Thanks to a "very large" high-pressure system moving through the area, the heat is expected to last throughout the week, with the hottest temperatures and higher humidity expected Thursday and Friday, Rorke said. A heat watch has been issued for Wednesday through Friday, and officials encouraged people to stay indoors and hydrated.

"We'll see a little bit of cooling [Sunday], but honestly, back to normal won't be until a week from today," Rorke said.

Mike Hoffman says it was an accident and he didn't intend to offer Gilbert Councilwoman Jenn Daniels a bribe. Yea, sure Mike. I believe you. Honest I believe you. Really, really honest, I believe you. Honest.

I guess that is why government crooks prefer to use free email accounts such as hotmail, googlemail and gmail to do their government business with.

It is much harder for private citizens to make requests for public records when a government crook is doing all their crooked business deals using a free hotmail account instead of a city of Gilbert, Arizona official email account.

Attorney General Tom Horne - F*** the will of the people, they can't have medical marijuana

Government tyrant Tom Horne is doing everything he can to thwart the will of the people and shut down Prop 203 which is Arizona's medical marijuana laws.

Fullerton Police Department to be disbanded???

For Women in Street Stops, Deeper Humiliation

Sadly the illegal and unconstitutional "war on drugs" in America has created a way for cops to make themselves look like heroes.

The piggies will illegally stop and search 100 people and one or two of them are bound to have an illegal drug on them, and the cops will arrest them for committing a harmless, victimless drug war crime.

Then the cops will brag that they are making the streets safer by illegally searching all these people and then arresting them for harmless and victimless drug war crimes.

If you ask me the piggies should start obeying the law themselves and stop illegally searching people.

The piggies should also stop shaking down and arresting people for victimless drug war crimes and start hunting down real criminals like robbers, rapists and muggers.

Jeff Flake and Wil Cardon are both drug war tyrants???

Wil Cardon also supports Sheriff Joe, which is another reason to vote against him.

Jeff Flake dodged the question and refused to give an honest answer so he may also support Maricopa County's police state thug Sheriff Joe.

Here is the question and their answers:

Q from Minority_Whip: What’s your stance on medical marijuana?

Flake: I’m not a fan, myself.

Cardon: I oppose the legalization of marijuana. Those needs can be provided through different delivery systems. The FDA and government is the problem to many of the woes of drug approvals.

Medical pot is here to stay, like it or not

Unlike the government tyrants that rule the state of Arizona, the leaders at the Arizona Republic seem to grudgingly know that even if they don't like it, medical marijuana is here to stay.

Government not liable for illegally tapping your phone???

I suspect this is one of the reasons the Founders included the 2nd Amendment in the Bill of Rights.

If you can't get the government to admit it's crimes and hold itself accountable for those crimes I suspect the Founders knew that the people had to be able to fix that problem and the only way was with the Second Amendment.

Drugs don't cause crime, the "War on Drug" does causes crime

Surprise Cops use murder to demonize medical marijuana

The police routinely lie and tell us that drugs cause crime.

The truth is that the insane and unconstitutional "war on drugs" causes crime, not the actual drugs.

The drug war causes drugs such as marijuana to be sold at super high black market prices. And those super high prices often cause people to steal to support their drug habit.

In the cause of marijuana an ounce of marijuana currently costs anywhere from $50 to $300+ an ounce on the black market.

If marijuana was legalized an ounce of pot wouldn't cost any more then a 99¢ hamburger at Jack in the Box or McDonalds.

Re-legalize drugs and the black market prices drugs are sold at will disappear and the crime caused by these black market prices will also disappear.

This case sounds a lot like the case where the Phoenix Police accused New York socialite Carol A. Gotbaum of "strangling herself to death" at Sky Harbor Airport, while she was handcuffed to a bench in a holding cell.

I suspect the Phoenix Police murdered Carol A. Gotbaum, like I suspect the Jonesboro Police murdered Chavis Carter.

Another warm night

But it does seem to be very hot because of all the humidity.

Yesterday, it only got up to 110°F. Yes a warm day, but certainly no blazing hot by Arizona standards. Because of all the humidity, before I went to bed I soaked my sweatshirt in water before going to sleep to keep me cool.

But despite that I still woke up at midnight from the warm weather.

Usually I get up at 4 but I slept late today and didn't wake up till about 4:30, probably because I woke up at midnight.

But don't get me wrong. I love hot weather.

I will take a 115°F day, any day of the year over a freezing cold 60°F day.

For that matter before I became homeless I seldom complained about the heat.

In my homes at night in the winter I always turn off the heat before I go to bed in the winter. Same thing in the summer. I always turn off the swamp cooler before I go to bed.

In both cases I am afraid that an electrical short in either the heater or swamp cooler could cause a fire that could kill me so I always shut them off before I go to bed.

Phoenix Police Officer arrested for having gay sex with teenagers

Personally I think that any and all consensual sexual relationships should be legal, but sadly the government classifies it as a crime when an adult has consensual sex with a person under 18.

My problem with this issue is that it is another case of our government masters saying "Do as I say, not as I do".

Mass murderer Jan Brewer strikes again

Free Roger Pion

Unlike most people who put up with the krap police terrorists give them when they are arrested for victimless drug war crimes which in all probability are unconstitutional Roger Pion decided to get even with the police terrorists who arrested him and crushed all their police cars with his tractor.

We certainly don't condone crimes of violence like that, but we certainly do think Roger Pion's protest helped the world focus on the insane and unconstitutional "Drug War" being waged against America citizens by the American government.

Hopefully Roger Pion protest will help legalize and stop the insane drug war.

Cops & Prosecutors make mountains out of molehills

Phoenix man sentenced for shining laser at two commercial airliners

I suspect the cops and prosecutors grossly exaggerated what happened and turned a trivial harmless incident in a major crime.

The cops say a police helicopter pilot was blinded by the guys laser. I suspect cops are lying about that.

Why? Because if a cop was even slightly blinded by the guy the police would have charged him with a number of felony counts of assaulting a police officer and related crimes.

Most people don't know it but the U.S. Post Office delivered main, on Sunday from it's founding in 1775 until 1912.

SRP shatters energy demand record

by Ryan Randazzo - Aug. 9, 2012 11:57 AM

The Republic | azcentral.com

Wednesday's record 116-degree heat pushed energy demand in Salt River Project's utility territory past a record set in 2006.

The summer peak is the maximum demand on the electrical system. It usually occurs on an afternoon in July or August between 4 and 6 p.m.

The new record was attributed not just to the hot weather, but the fact that SRP has grown its customer base since the prior record.

Neither utility was asking ordinary customers to cut power usage Thursday, when demand was not as high as Wednesday.

SRP and the larger Arizona Public Service Co. set a demand record of 13,826 megawatts on July 21, 2006. That day, the temperature hit 118 degrees in Phoenix, and SRP's peak demand was 6,590 megawatts; APS', 7,236 megawatts.

APS did not set a new record Wednesday, but SRP's demand passed its 2006 record by 75 megawatts by hitting 6,665 megawatts between 4 p.m. and 5 p.m., and was enough to push the utilities' combined record to 13,842 megawatts.

APS officials said it is likely they did not hit a new record the same day as SRP because the APS service territory is much larger and more geographically diverse, stretching from Yuma to Prescott and Flagstaff, and demand was not record-breaking across that entire region.

APS hit a high Wednesday of 7,177 at 5 p.m.

The SRP record would have been beaten even more if not for a "demand-response" program at SRP that took 49 megawatts off the power grid from large business customers. APS has a similar program, but didn't call it into action Wednesday.

The demand-response programs offer special rates to large customers who volunteer to have portions of their power shut off when demand spikes. The programs can, for example, shut off the pool pumps at hotels, or sections of lighting at large stores or factories.

"They just reduce the power, they don't turn everything totally off," SRP manager of power scheduling and trading Mike Clester said.

The programs help the utilities avoid paying high market prices for electricity during the peaks. Both APS and SRP operate several of their own power plants, but rely on additional power purchased from other utilities during peak demand.

Clester said that SRP had capacity to spare during Wednesday's peak demand, even though one of the turbines on the Salt River system of dams was off line, as was one of the units at the Springerville Generating Station coal-fired plant in northern Arizona.

But in California, the power grid operator issued a warning through Sunday that asked citizens to turn up their thermostats or turn off air-conditioners if they were not at home, and to shut off unnecessary lighting and appliances until evening.

California could be shorthanded on power supply with the two nuclear generators at the San Onofre Generating Station near San Diego offline this summer. The three reactors at Palo Verde Nuclear Generating Station were all operating at 100 percent Thursday, according to the Nuclear Regulatory Commission.

Palo Verde serves APS, SRP and five other minority owners from Texas to Los Angles.

Clester and officials from APS said that Arizona is not concerned with its own power supply or from problems in California spilling over into this state.

Except for Wednesday's record, July and August temperatures have been normal, Clester said.

"That coupled with a lot of river flow in the Pacific Northwest, a lot of regional (power line) capacity, and a lot of new wind projects that have been put on line adding energy to the system ... to date this summer has seen adequate (electricity) capacity," he said.

Arizona utilities must brief utility regulators in the spring to confirm that they have the power plants at their disposal to handle the expected peak demand, with some cushion.

Wednesday broke those peak predictions for both utilities.

SRP officials predicted a maximum peak of 6,745 megawatts this summer, but with the demand-response program and other efficiency measures, it was projected to be just 6,468 megawatts.

APS expected a peak of 7,067 megawatts, slightly less than the 7,087-megawatt peak it hit last year.

"That is why we have a little margin in our forecast," said John Lucas, director of power operations and maintenance for APS. "We can get through a day like Wednesday without any problem and with enough (spare) margin for a generator to trip (offline)."

In September, a small regional blackout that started on the APS system in Yuma spread to the neighboring Imperial Irrigation District, the utility in Mexico and eventually San Diego Gas and Electric, leaving about 7 million people without power.

Lucas said that it is unlikely a problem in California, where energy supplies are tighter right now, could cause a similar problem that left Arizonans in the dark.

"Naturally, we monitor the lines that go to California, and we also have discussions with our neighbors," he said. "If something started happening out that way, we would immediately start seeing that and taking action to prevent outages."

Did Jared Loughner understand the plea bargain he just accepted???

It sounds like he may be nuttier then a fruit cake and may not have really understood the plea bargain he just accepted which will put him in prison for the rest of his life.

I wonder if the Federal prosecutors let him take the plea bargain because they think he is incapable of being sane enough for the duration of any trial he would have???

If you ask me both Arizona Attorney General Tom Horne and Arizona Governor Jan Brewer should resign.

Bike Combination Locks

Like most things if you don't know the magic tricks it sounds impossibly hard to do. But once you take apart a lock and figure out how the lock works it's a trivial task.

I never have been able to open this type of bike combination lock. They have some wafers in them that prevent you from reading the combination.

OK, I don't have a home because I am homeless, so I took the lock to a friends house and took it apart.

Here are the results of my dissection of the bike combination lock.

I think I have figured out a way to pick the lock, but since I don't have a working lock to test my theory on I won't give the details on how I think the lock can be picked.

Mesa police testing high-tech fingerprint scanners

I only know of one Supreme Court case where you are required to tell the police your name and that is Hiibel v. Nevada or Hiibel v. Sixth Judicial District Court of Nevada.

In that case the US Supreme Court said that the police can only require that you VERBALLY tell them your name only if 1) they have "Reasonable Suspicion" to detain you and 2) your state has a law requiring you to identify your self. In those cases you have to VERBALLY tell the police your name, but you are not required to give them any ID.

Arizona has such a law and when it was first passed it was a word for word copy of the Nevada law.

Sadly most police officers are corrupt thugs and will flush your Constitutional rights down the toilet if you refuse to tell them your name or answer their questions.

It happens to me every time I am stopped by the police.

I take the 5th refuse to tell them my name and refuse to answer their questions.

They then illegally search me looking for ID, which they don't find, because I don't carry ID.

And usually after and hour or so of being falsely arrested the cops let me go.

I suspect the next time I am falsely arrested by the Mesa Police they will illegally force me to give them my finger prints with this new high tech field finger print scanner.

The "War on Drugs" causes crime

Of course the government is the cause of all these crimes because of the government insane and unconstitutional "war on drugs".

Because drugs are illegal they are sold illegally at super high black market prices.

And because of these incredibly high black market prices people steal drugs from places like Walgreens.

If drugs were legalized these thefts would stop over night because a bottle of OxyContin or oxycodone wouldn't cost any more then a bottle of aspirin and people would stop breaking into pharmacies to steal the stuff.

None of the above should be on every ballot

I agree with Robert Harper and think that on every ballot we should have a "none of the above" candidate.

And if "none of the above" wins the office should be unfilled for the entire term.

A lot of people disagree with me and say we can't do that because it would make government grind to a halt.

Yes, I agree. That is the reason I think "none of the above" should be on every ballot.

If it causes government to grind to a halt that is great. It means the crooks at the Arizona State Capital and in Washington D.C. won't be able to steal from us, which is 99 percent of what government does.

The bad news is that the government rarely forces contractors who make those low bids to actually complete the project for the price they bid.

And of course contractors know that so some of them routinely make artificially low bids with no intention of completing the project for the price they bid, because they know the government will let them get away with jacking the price us far beyond on what they bid on.

In this article the author predicts that San Francisco will get screwed on this low bid for a subway thru Chinatown.

No the author isn't psychic, but the author does know that the contract has made similar bids on other projects in the Bay Area and the contractor hasn't completed any of them for the price he bid.

ASU machine shop in Chandler open to the public

Normally I try to avoid dealing with the government, but since they stole my tax dollars to build and operate the machine shop I don't see anything wrong with using the machine shop.

The shop is at 249 E. Chicago Street. I think that is between the Maricopa County Small Claims Court and the Cemex plant on the railroad tracks.

Arizona make unemployment benefits more difficult to collect

But contrary to popular belief unemployment is not a government welfare program. Both the employeer and employee are required to purchase unemployment insurance before a person can receive unemployment benefits.

In past 90 percent of the people that collected unemployment used a telephone to phone in every week and verify they searched for work.

According to this article people are no longer allowed to use the telephone to verify that they searched for work.

Instead they will be required to use the internet to verify their work search.

I suspect the state of Arizona is making these new requirements simply to make it more difficult for people to collect the unemployment insurance they purchased from the state of Arizona.

Will the cops use a dead mans blinking to frame an innocent person?

Dust storm passes through Phoenix area

by Cecilia Chan - Aug. 11, 2012 07:03 PM

The Republic | azcentral.com

A dust storm blowing across parts of the Valley was expected to last until around 7 p.m., according to the National Weather Service in Phoenix.

The blowing dust closed down State Route 347 at Riggs Road, west of Sun Lakes, the Arizona Department of Transportation reported.

"As dry as it is after these years of drought it doesn't take much to cause a dust storm," meteorologist Mike Bruce said. "It will kind of spread across the metro area right now and will go for another hour or so and the winds will die down."

Bruce said the dust storm blowing through the Phoenix metropolitan area was coming from Pinal County.

He said the average wind gust was about 25 mph with some gusts as high as 40 mph. A wind gust is considered severe when it hits 60 mph, Bruce said.

He said reports of visibility ranged from quarter of a mile to half a mile in some areas.

He said there was a slight chance of a thunderstorms or showers tonight.

Governments love to tax the krap out of people that can't vote.

Which is why politicians in Arizona love to create extremely high taxes on things that are mostly used by tourists who can't vote.

And of course in this case those taxes are taxes on rental cars and hotel rooms which are paid mostly by tourists.

Even more outrageous is that the woman's bond was set at $105,000 and she probably will be charged with a felony.

Museum honors passionate Valley concertgoer

Sunnyslope Historical Society Museum!

However over the years Phoenix swallowed up Sunnyslope and now it is part of Phoenix.

Here is an article about Sunnyslope, and the Sunnyslope Historical Society Museum.

I lived in Sunnyslope for a number of years before the government seized my home there for messy yard crimes.

I didn't commit any crimes, by the property I lived on did commit the crimes and the city of Phoenix seized my home and stole it from me because of crimes the property committed.

Phoenix VA screws up 47 percent of it's cases???

In the article the VA says they are much better then that and that they process 88 percent of the cases correctly.

Big stinking deal. At 88 percent that means they still screw up a little more then one out of every 10 cases.

The good news is that when the private sector screws up things this badly they quickly go out of business.

The bad news is that the government can't go out of business and these idiots that work for Uncle Sam will be screwing up things for years to come. And sadly we will be forced to pay these idiots.

MCSO: Mesa man arrested in Craigslist bestiality case

"Sodomy" and the "Infamous Crime against Nature" which are the same thing were repealed a few year back by the Arizona Legislator. Those laws make oral sex, anal sex, and sex with animals illegal.

But then a fireman in Mesa was caught humping a goat and religious twits in the Arizona Legislator reinstated the law that makes it a felony to have sex with animals.

Rain wind and lightning

It's been around 110°F in the daytime which really isn't that hot by Phoenix standards. But with the high humidity it makes it feel a lot hotter then it really is.

First it was wind and lightning that woke me up. I figured I might get killed if the wind blew a tree branch down on me while I was sleeping.

Then it started raining about 2 am.

That's when I left and found a dryer place to sleep.

I lied, it's hotter then normal!!!

I guess I am wrong on that.

Phoenix-area record-breaking heat wave to continue

by Cassondra Strande - Aug. 14, 2012 08:18 AM

The Arizona Republic-12 News Breaking News Team

A record-breaking heat wave is expected to continue Tuesday in the Phoenix area before a storm system prompts a gradual decrease in temperatures by Thursday.

Since the heat wave began last Monday, the Valley has been shattering records. Temperatures have broken four all-time high temperatures for their respective dates and tied another, said Chris Kuhlman, a spokesman for the National Weather Service.

Aug. 7, Phoenix Sky Harbor International Airport, where the official temperatures are tracked, hit 112, which tied the previous record set in 1905.

On Wednesday, the Valley was 3 degrees hotter than the previous record set at 113 degrees in 1991.

On Thursday, the official temperature crept past the record from 2003 when it hit 114.

On Sunday, the recorded temperature of 115 surpassed the record of 114 set in 2007.

On Monday, the Valley felt a high of 115, which is 2 degrees warmer than the previous record of 113 set in 2003, Kuhlman said.

Beyond just the record breaking numbers, the Phoenix area has broken the record for consecutive days in a row of low temperatures exceeding 90 degrees, Kuhlman said.

Monday marked the seventh day with low temperatures above 90 degrees, surpassing the 2003 record of six consecutive days with low temperatures above 90 degrees.

The record could be broken again if temperatures don't drop below the 90 degree mark before midnight.

Lows in the 90s are not much of a relief from the day time highs. For the past eight days, Phoenix has seen high temperatures exceeding 110 degrees, Kuhlman said.

Normal high temperatures for mid-August in Phoenix are around 105 degrees, and often there is a heat wave passing through toward the end of the month.

Temperatures in the Valley are only expected to drop a couple of degrees a day until a storm system moves into the state Thursday.

The Valley is expected to see a high temperature of 113 degrees Tuesday, 110 degrees Wednesday, 104 degrees Thursday and 103 degrees Friday. Lows should remain in the mid to high 80s, according to the National Weather Service.

Chances for rain are predicted to start Tuesday night, but the Valley will see the highest chances for rainfall Thursday night into Friday morning. Even if sections of Phoenix don't see rain, the area's will likely feel a drop in temperatures because of the system.

Record, dangerous heat with storm chances in Valley

Posted: 06/25/2012

By: Amy Murphy

PHOENIX - Our Excessive Heat Warning has now been extended into Wednesday, with storm chances creeping back into the Valley.

Plan for another day of records, with a high expected today to hit 113. That would tie the old record from 1988.

Excessive Heat Warnings remain in effect through 5 a.m. Wednesday.

Phoenix Sky Harbor reached 115 degrees around 1:30 p.m. yesterday, edging out the old record of 113 from 2003.

Our early morning low was 90 degrees, not hot enough to break the record of 92 but it did mark the 7th consecutive day where the temperature has not fallen below 90 degrees and that's a new record heat stretch! The previous stretch of temperatures consistently hotter than 90 was six days back in July of 2003.

Overnight lows will also challenge standing records through early Wednesday morning. Most of the Valley will be in the upper 80s, but lows at Phoenix Sky Harbor will be in the low 90s.

Remember to protect yourself from this dangerous heat by wearing light-colored, loose-fitting clothes and drinking plenty of water. Stay inside during the hottest parts of the day. If you must be outside for extended periods of time, wear sunscreen, a hat and sunglasses to reduce sun exposure to your body.

Also be sure to take care of your pets. Bring them inside if you can and make sure they are drinking plenty of water. Don't forget to check on friends and elderly who might be more affected by the heat.

Our high temperature will fall to 110 degrees in Phoenix by Wednesday, with highs cooling another four or five degrees by Thursday and Friday.

Storm chances crank up to 30 percent in the Valley for the rest of the week with a 20 percent chance through the weekend.

Kevin Walsh comments on the Loughner case

Here are some comments Kevin Walsh made on the Loughner case.

Kevin Walsh is also a well know racist.

I don't agree with any of Kevin's ideas in that area, but just because Kevin Walsh is a racist, doesn't make it right for the Secret Service to jail him as a political prisoner.

Arizona Day of Prayer ruled Constitutional

In Arizona the Constitution clears says it is illegal for the government to mix religion and government. The Constitution says:

"No public money or property should be appropriated for or applied to any religious worship, exercise or instruction"

Fast and Furious: House files suit vs. Holder

Sadly the American President seems to think that him and all his men are above the law and are some type of American royalty.

Sadly the members of the U.S House and U.S. Senate also seem to think they are also above the law and routinely behave like royal government tyrants.

Dozens of 'innocent' prisoners could be freed

TSA thugs jerk people around based on their answers to innocent questions

This is one more reason you should always take the 5th and refuse to answer any and all questions the police ask you.

Lawsuit says FBI violated religious rights of Muslims

Mountains lions have been sighted in North Scottsdale and Tucson.

According to this article a mountain lion is living in the middle of Griffith Park in Los Angeles.

Mushroom growers switch to pot??

Saudi religious police build city for woman workers???

Hey wouldn't it be easier to just dump those silly religious laws which treat woman as third class citizens and let women have the same rights men have????

¿Carne de Perro?

Phoenix Mayor Greg Stanton breaks nose playing basketball

Sadly clowns like Phoenix Mayor Greg Stanton will do anything to get them publicity to help them get reelected.

Why did I create all these web pages?

Why did I create the Homeless in Arizona web page?

Why did I create the all the web pages about government bureaucrats who break the law

And the answer to both questions can be answered here.

Arizona mixing government and religion in foster homes???

Don't like something? Just declare it a "Public Nuisance" to make it illegal!

Since legal recreation drugs are not a crime Yavapai County Attorney Sheila Polk can't throw people.

But Yavapai County Attorney Sheila Polk has figured out a novel way so she can jail people who use legal recreation drugs. Just declare them a "public nuisance" and start throwing them in jail for that reason according to this article.

Yavapai County Attorney Sheila Polk probably thinks she is really smart for coming up with this novel way of eliminating people she hates.

We don't think so. Years ago Hitler discovered that by declaring Jews and gays a "public nuisance" he could round them up, put them in concentration camps and execute them .

That was also a technique used in America's racist South. Any Black man who thought he had the same rights as a White man was declared a ""public nuisance" and promptly strung up from a tree by a lynching gang that was usually supervised by a local Sheriff, who probably would have admired Sheila Polk if she lived in that time frame.

John McCain - Defense spending cuts threaten national security

With that in mind I find it amazing that in this article war monger John McCain can say automatic military-spending cuts set to take effect in 2013 would be devastating to national security.

Of course this military spending is not about national security! It's a government welfare program for the corporations in the military industrial complex. It's also a jobs program for the generals and admirals in the U.S. Military.

People think government sucks???

The article is titled Why 90 million Americans won't vote in November and asks people why they don't vote.

And the answer is pretty much "Government Sucks"!!!!

Stupid criminal breaks into Steve Job's home

But this criminal who burglarized Apple founder Steve Job's home was too stupid to pass up.

Here is the article about this morons burglary of Steve Job's home in Palo Alto, California.

More storms and rain!

It was very windy, stormy and lightening was flashing in the distance when I woke up.

It started to rain so I left and found a place to hide from the rain.

The good news was it didn't rain enough for me to get soaking wet, or for that matter even wet.

I guess it really is hot!!!!

It sounds like I am wrong on that. According to this article we are having some record hot weather in Phoenix.

Of course I am not complaining.

I will take a 115°F day in August any day of the year over a freezing cold 60°F day in January. I hate cold weather.

Government tyrants in Denver ban medical marijuana ads

Of course most government tyrants feel they are royal rulers and don't have to obey the Constitution.

In this article the royal rulers of Denver have made it illegal to advertize medical marijuana in outdoor places.

It doesn't matter who gets elected, we are screwed either way

Of course if you ask me, expecting the government to stop stealing our money and giving it to the special interest groups that help the politicians get elected is like expecting a thieve that breaks into your home to only steal half of the money in finds in your piggy bank and leave the other half behind because he knows you needs the money.

It ain't going to happen.

Tucson & Pima County government bureaucrats are paid very well

The 1,000th highest-paid Tucson city employee earned $72,411, which is $37,000 more than the average Tucsonan.

Pima County paid its 1,000th top earner $63,258, about $28,000 more than the average resident pulls down.

Yes, the cops are out to get you

Sure the cops brag that they are heroes for busting litter bugs and jay walkers, but they certainly are not making the streets safer and in fact are wasting our tax dollars arresting people for such trivial crimes.

IBM mainframes??? What are they????

Here is an interesting article on how they are starting to teach people how to program and operate mainframe computers.

Yes, IBM mainframes are very expensive boat anchors that are not very relevant to the modern world.

But billions and probably trillions of dollars of software was written to run on those old mainframes and you can't just throw the mainframes away and move the software to a PC and expect it to run.

It will literally cost you billions of dollars to make all that software run on a PC.

Most of that software was written in COBOL. Good chunks of it was written in IBM assembly language, which is also called ALC for Assembly Language Code or Assembly Language Coding or BAL which is Basic Assembly Language and is the same thing as ALC.

A lot of it is also written in CICS and IMS.

IMS is a hierarchical database system for IBM mainframe computers written mostly in COBOL and assembly language. It was popular before SQL caught on.

IMS is also an onlike transaction processing system like CICS.

CICS is an online transaction processing system. I believe it stands for Customer Information Control System.

IBM didn't invent CICS but bought it from one of their customers.

CICS is written mostly in COBOL and IBM assembly language and allows programers to write computer programs that allow users to access the data via computer terminals, rather then the old batch processing which standard vanilla COBOL is used for.

CICS programs can access IMS databases.

And as I said before you can also do online transaction processing in IMS just like you can in CICS.

Ecuador grants political asylum to WikiLeaks' Julian Assange

Foreign Minister Ricardo Patino said Ecuador believed Assange faced a real threat of political persecution — including the prospect of extradition to the United States, where Patino said he would not get a fair trial.

"It is not impossible that he would be treated in a cruel manner, condemned to life in prison, or even the death penalty," Patino told journalists in Quito, the Ecuadorean capital. "Ecuador is convinced that his procedural rights have been violated."

It's not to see that most of the world views the American Empire as the worlds largest police state, not the beacon of freedom and democracy that our warmongering leaders like to portray the American Empire as.

England threats to raid Ecuador embassy to arrest Assange

Last night was real cool

Despite that I soaked my shirt in water before going to bed. I slept pretty well.

I was pretty shocked when I saw the high for yesterday. It was a measly 98°F!!!! We didn't even hit 100°F.

Today's high is forecast for a cool 102°F. There is a 30 percent chance of monsoons tonight too.

For those of you who don't live in the Sonoran Desert monsoons is a big word we use for thunderstorms that come up from Mexico.

Jan Brewer believes in selectively enforcing the 10th Amendment

Jan Brewer who is also a drug war tyrant who hates medical marijuana seems to think the 10th Amendment is null and void when it comes to Arizona's medical marijuana laws which are Prop 203 and wants to say that because of Federal law Arizona's Prop 203 is null and void.

Jan Brewer who also seems like a racist who wants to run all the Mexicans out of Arizona on the other hand seems to believe in the 10th Amendment when it supports her position that Arizona can have racist immigration laws like SB 1070 which conflict with the Federal laws on immigration.

Personally I think the 10th Amendment makes Arizona's Prop 203 valid, even if it conflicts with Federal law.

While I am against Arizona's racist SB 1070 law, I suspect the 10th Amendment also makes it constitutional, if it doesn't conflict with the U.S. Constitution.

Colorado shooting prompts gun bills in big states

No the reason they created the Second Amendment was to allow us to protect ourselves from bigger criminals like government tyrants.

It actually rained enough to get you wet.

It was raining till at least 6.

The good news is it wasn't too cold. I actually put on my sweatshirt last night to keep warm.

Migrant lawyers say Brewer edict contradicts law

According to this article folks at the ACLU say Brewers current mandate is unconstitutional.

I don't know this area of the law that well.

I do think that Governor Brewer hates Mexicans and medical marijuana users and is using her office unconstitutionally to make like difficult for them.

Why???

The Spanish Alphabet

B is referred to as be grande ("big B") and the V as ve chica ("little V"). U is sometimes topped with a dieresis or umlaut, as in vergüenza.

Some authorities once considered the RR (erre doble) as a separate letter.

For many years, when ch was considered a separate letter.

Proof of citizenship no longer required to register to vote in Arizona

But despite that court ruling it sure sounds like the government tyrants in Arizona are doing the best they can to make people think that proof of citizenship is required to register to vote in Arizona.

In this article federal judge Judge Roslyn Silver has given state and county election officials until the end of the month to finally comply with a court order to make sure that alternate voter registration forms are readily available — forms that do not require proof of citizenship.

Your boss can find out if you are a medical marijuana user

Arizona database allows employer to find out if you're a medical marijuana user

The article's headline is misleading and an employer can't punch in names and push 'enter' and find out if they have (medical marijuana) cards.

The employer can sign up, get a password, enter the 20-digit number of a medical marijuana user's card, and verify the card is valid.

But I suspect that because many of our government rulers including Arizona Governor Jan Brewer and the director of the Arizona Department of Health Services Will Humble who hate marijuana users will illegally allow the names of medical marijuana patients to be "leaked" to punish them for their use of medical marijuana.

I suspect the police department will also illegally leak the names of medical marijuana users to punish them.

Did the police murder Chavis Carter because he was a pot smoker???

According to this article the cops says they searched Chavis Carter for weapons and drugs. The article says the cops then arrested Chavis Carter, handcuffed him and placed him in the back of a police car.

Next the cops seem to be making up some fantastic fairy tails.

The cops say that while he was handcuffed and sitting in the back of a squad car that Chavis Carter pulled out a gun that the cops didn't find while searching him and used the gun to commit suicide.

I suspect cops when they make up lies to cover up crimes they commit operate on the principle that the bigger and more unbelievable the story the make up is, the easier it is to sucker the public into believing it.

This fantastic fairy tale that seems to be made up to cover up the murder of Chavis Carter reminds me of the murder of New York socialite Carol A. Gotbaum by the Phoenix Police at Sky Harbor Airport.

The Phoenix Police says that New York socialite Carol A. Gotbaum of "strangling herself to death" at Sky Harbor Airport, while she was handcuffed to a bench in a holding cell.

Again this also sounds like a fantastic fairy tail to cover up a police murder.

Contract for radar system to detect ultralight drug smugglers???

What will the cops do when this radar detects a ultralight pot smuggler??? Shoot them down with a surface to air missile???

I wouldn't doubt it. The insane "war on drugs" and "war on terror" keeps getting insaner ever day.

And of course both the "war on drugs" and "war on terror" are really wars on the American people along with being a war on the Bill of Rights.

And of course the "war on drugs" and "war on terror" are also jobs programs for federal, state and local cops.

Mailman busted for buying illegal drugs while delivering the mail!!!

According to this article a mailman was arrested for buying illegal drugs while on duty.

Of course I could care less what drugs the mailman takes while on duty, as long as the guy gets his job done.

My problem is paying the police big bucks to arrest these people for the victimless crime of using drugs.

Government is the cause of the problem, not the solution

Darren Murphy arrested for "thinking" he has Constitutional rights

The 4th Amendment says the government can't search us unless they have a search warrant that was issued because the government has probable cause to believe a crime was committed.

Of course the 4th Amendment has been flushed down the toilet and the police illegally search everybody that enters courthouses in Maricopa County.

This illegal search p*ssed off Darren Murphy who was prevented from entering the courthouse, not because he had any guns or weapons, but because he had an empty unusable bullet casing in his pocket.

If the police had not been illegally searching people he would not have been arrested.

Of course the 2nd Amendment is also an issue here.

The Founders created the Second Amendment to allow us to protect ourselves from government tyrants who flush the Constitution down the toilet.

Government tyrants just like the government tyrants who have flushed the 4th Amendment down the toilet and require us to be illegally searched before entering a courthouse.

It's real humid!!!!

Also when I walked around at lunch time I was also sweating like a pig.

Again it's not very hot, but it feels that way because of all the humidity.

On the other hand with the temps dropping under 100°F in the day time the nights are not that hot even with all the humidity.

Also the days are getting a lot shorter. It is getting dark around a half an hour earlier. Sadly winter is on it's way and will soon be here in October when it stops hitting 100°F.

I hate cold weather.

If Maricopa County Attorney Bill Montgomery wants to prosecute medical marijuana dispensary operators he should resign from his job as Maricopa County Attorney and get a job as a Federal prosecutor.

Voter fraud is rare in U.S.

The analysis found that there is more alleged fraud in absentee ballots and voter registration than in any of the other categories. The analysis shows 491 cases of alleged absentee-ballot fraud and 400 cases involving registration fraud. Requiring voters to show identification at the polls -- the crux of most of the new legislation -- would not have prevented those cases.

So it seems that these voter ID laws were passed by Republicans who were in power to to prevent Democrats who were not in power from voting.

LAPD beats up Venice teenager

Prosecutors’ Overreaching Goes Unchecked

If you ask me the current system of "plea bargaining" has pretty much flushed our system where people are entitled to a trial by a jury of their peers down the toilet.

Yes anybody charged with a crime can demand a "trial by jury", but with the "plea bargaining system" the way it works is you can "cop a plea" to reduced charges and get two years in prison. If you demand your Constitutional right of having a "trial by a jury", you will end up facing charges where you will get 10, 20, 30, 40 or 50 years in prison if you demand a trial by jury and get convicted.

So when people are faced with 2 years in prison if they "cop a plea" as opposed to the rest of their life in prison if they demand a trial, sadly they usually cop a plea, even if they are innocent.

I know two people who accepted plea bargains for crimes they were innocent of because if they demanded a trial by jury and were convicted they would have spent the rest of their lives in prison.

Laro Nicol accepted a plea bargain for having parts that could be used to make a machine gun. He got 2 years. If he had demanded a trial by jury and was convicted he would have spent 20+ years in prison.

Kevin Walsh accepted a plea bargain for having assaulting a police officer. After he accepted the plea bargain he spent 6 more months in prison. If he had demanded a trial by jury and was convicted he would have spent 20+ years in prison.

A lot of people get angry when I defend Kevin Walsh because he is a racist. But just because Kevin Walsh is a racist doesn't make it right for the government to railroad him.

According to this article here is what Congressman Todd Akin actually said:

And I suspect that his insane belief that woman who are raped can't get pregnant is why he justifies his sexist view that woman should not be allowed to have abortions.

I told him one of the things we talk about is how to prevent the government from passing laws to force their religion on us.

3.1 million registered voters in Arizona

A quick Google search says as of 2011 there are 6,500,00 people in Arizona. So about 47 percent of the people in Arizona are registered to vote.

Of course you have to remember that people who are under 18 years old can't register to vote. Same for people convicted of felonies.

Nationally about one third of the registered voters are Independents

The good news is that the Republicans and Democrats have been loosing ground for the last 15 years and people are dumping their Republican or Democratic voter registration and registering as Independent, which means they did not pick a part.

When I became a Libertarian in 1995, Independent voters were only about 10 percent of the registered voters. That has tripled and and Independents are about 33 percent of the registered voters.

Michael Wayne Hash has murder charges dismissed after 12 years in prison

That didn't happen here. But still it is good news that Michael Wayne Hash was released from prison after spending 12 years there for a crime he didn't commit according to this article.

This case is a perfect example of that. The courts have said this guy is INNOCENT, but the California attorney general has refused for 2 years to let him out of prison.

WikiLeaks and Free Speech

The bottom line is Julian Assange is a political prisoner that the American government would love to throw in prison for the rest of his life and England and Sweden are attempting to help the American government do that.

Neither Obama nor Romney seem to get that "Separation of Church and State" thing

Obama said:

"Obama highlighted cooperation between government, which has the resources religious groups often lack, and religious groups, which understand local needs in a way government often fails to do"

Of course Romney doesn't seem to get that that separation of church and state thing either. Romney said:

"We are a nation 'Under God,' and in God, we do indeed trust"

Afghan rocket strike hits top U.S. general's plane

According to this article Freedom fighters in Afghanistan hit an American Generals plane with rocket fire.

Of the American propaganda machine wrote it off as a lucky hit. But if that is true why is the American Empire still fighthing this silly war in Afghanistan. It's the longest war in American history, and like Vietnam we are getting defeated by a bunch of people who are almost using stone age weapons.

Republican Party Constitutional Amendment to Ban Abortion

The abortion language, approved today by committee, is similar to what the GOP adopted in 2004 and 2008.

Sigh!!!! I don't know weather I would enjoy living more under a Republican theocracy or a Democratic kleptocracy!

The Republicans want to control your thoughts and the Democrats want to control your wallet.

Kindergartner banned from wearing University of Michigan shirt?

No wonder the idiots in the "government schools" or "public schools" as the government bureaucrats like to call them can't educate our children.

Of course the solution is to get rid of government schools and replace them with "private schools" where parents can refuse to pay for the tuition if the schools don't educate the children.

Currently parents are forced to pay taxes to operate the "government schools" or "public schools", but if the schools don't educate your children, you are still forced to pay the taxes to run the school.

Tempe drinking water stinks

Trust us the royal rules of Tempe says, the water's safe, it just stinks!

I got rained on

As I was going home it was cloudy out and it was getting real cool. I almost froze to death on the bus because of the cold AC.

Because of that I didn't soak my shirt in water like I have been doing. I figured I fight freeze to death if it got cold.

I suspect the cold AC was bothering me more then it normally does because I am sick.

I woke up in the middle of the night to thunder and lightning and rain.

It started out raining light but it got pretty heavy at times.

My cave isn't as waterproof as I thought it was. And the cardboard I sleep on was soaked.

I walked a couple of miles to find a place to sleep that was out of the rain.

I stayed there till about 2 in the morning when it stopped raining. I then went back to my cave where I finished sleeping.

I was pretty ticked because I woke up an a hour and a half late.

I didn't get up till 5:17 which is very late by my standards.

More government pork and taxes in Tempe

Of course if it works out as these things usually did it's just a loss leader to get the project approved.

Which means ASU's novel funding method will fail and the taxpayers of Arizona or Tempe will be expected to pay for the project.

Phoenix Copwatch web page take over by the cops???

When I went to the Phoenix Copwatch webpage it was replaced with a bunch of Japanese stuff.

I am guessing the police discovered the domain name phoenixcopwatch.org had expired and purchased the domain name to prevent Phoenix Copwatch from bad mouthing them.

This looks like the new owner of the Phoenix Copwatch website. I did find this site which looks like the new Phoenix Copwatch web page.

Looks like it is a free web page at wordpress.com.

Perhaps I should make a public records request on that to the folks in Arizona, Maricopa and Phoenix governments and see if they now own the domain name phoenixcopwatch.org.

Last but not least from the new Phoenix Copwatch web page it looks like the Phoenix Anarchists have fully taken over Phoenix Copwatch.

That is one of the reasons I dropped out of Copwatch was because of the Phoenix Anarchists. Or I should say the only reason I dropped out of Copwatch.

While the Phoenix Anarchists says they are anarchists if you ask me they seem to be socialists who think they are anarchists, not anarchists.

More cool weather

The weather page says there is a 40 percent chance of storms now, and a 50 percent chance of storms tonight, so I may get soaked again.

Bacon in park not anti-Muslim act

In this article the cops turn an incident where a woman left bacon out to feed the seagulls and raccoons into a hate crime against Muslims.

And of course that silly incident reminds me of an equally silly incident in Phoenix where the cops found some white powder placed on the ground for a cross country race into an anthrax attack.

Moon Valley White Powder Mystery Solved

The Phoenix Police Department sent eight motorcycle officers, one motorcycle sergeant, one motorcycle lieutenant, two field officers, one field sergeant, one detective and a public information officer.

In the end the discovered the alleged white powder that was supposed to have been a terrorist attack on the folks in Moon Valley was nothing more then some flour an old ladies jogging club put down to mark the path of their jogging event.

The cops and firemen want you to think they are heroes for protecting us from terrorists, but in reality it's nothing more then a jobs program for overpaid and under worked cops.

As H. L. Mencken said:

"The whole aim of practical politics is to keep the populace alarmed (and hence clamorous to be led to safety) by menacing it with an endless series of hobgoblins, all of them imaginary."

8/23 Thursday - I got soaked - twice

I woke up around 2 am to a violent thunderstorm. Lots of rain and lots of lightning strikes.

I guessing 5 to 10 lightning strikes within a quarter a mile of where I was at.

The old rule says that for every 5 seconds it takes to hear the thunder after you see the lightning means the distance is one mile.

So hearing the thunder after 1 second means the lightning is one fifth of a mile away and there were a number of those.

I got flooded bad. I lost the cardboard I sleep on.

I saw some guy riding around on his bicycle in the desert at 2:30 am in the storm. Why was that nut riding around in the desert like I do. I wonder if he is homeless too.

At about 4:30 am I got blasted by a 2nd wave of rain as I was walking to the bus. It totally soaked my clothing.

The rain soaked the front half of me first. As the direction of the road twisted around and the rain soaked another forth of my body.

And I guess the water that hit then soaked into the rest of my clothing that the rain didn't strike directly.

Here is the article on this storm:

Crash, mudflow close eastbound lanes of Interstate 10 in Phoenix

by Cassondra Strande - Aug. 23, 2012 10:30 AM

The Arizona Republic-12 News Breaking News Team

A massive storm system brought more than 2 1/2 inches of rain Wednesday night, causing a mudslide on Interstate 10, flooding of intersections, downed trees and at least one water rescue.

Parts of the Valley flooded after thunderstorms pounded the area Wednesday night. The storms came on the heels of another series of thunderstorms that struck Wednesday afternoon.

In Phoenix, about 1,500 Arizona Public Service customers -- mostly in the central and northern part of the city -- lost power after the storm rolled through around 2 a.m. All had services restored by 8 a.m., a utility spokesman said.

A semitruck rolled on Interstate 10 near the U.S. 60 on Thursday morning, temporarily blocking two lanes of traffic, according to the Arizona Department of Transportation.

Mud fell across a stretch of I-10 Thursday morning, shutting down two lanes of traffic from 75th to 79th avenues, according to the transportation department.

A collision on Interstate 17 at Northern Avenue blocked several lanes of traffic around 7 a.m.

Water flooded both westbound and eastbound lanes of Arizona 74 from mile post marker 24 to 29, east of New River.

A driver and disabled passenger were trapped inside of a transport vehicle in Scottsdale near 77th and Roosevelt streets after fast moving water swept the car from the roadway around 5:30 a.m. Thursday, according to Dave Folio, a spokesman for the City of Scottsdale Fire Department.

The transport vehicle is operated by Dependable Medical Transport Services, LLC. A company official declined comment Thursday morning.

The driver apparently drove around a barricade. A flashing sign warning drivers not to enter the roadway was also nearby.

Water continued to rise during the hour fire crews tried to rescue the two people, Folio said.

Both the driver and passenger were successfully taken from the van around 6:30 a.m.

Nearby the intersection of McDowell and Miller roads was flooded as well.

Rainfall was wide spread across the area. Over a 24-hour period, 2.68 inches of rain was recorded in the East Valley, 1.65 inches of rain fell in Phoenix, and 1.57 inches of rain fell in Mesa, according to the Flood Control District of Maricopa County.

The National Weather Service has issued a flood advisory for the Valley and parts of Maricopa County that is expect to last until 11:15 a.m. A flash flood watch is in effect for most of Thursday for northern Arizona.

Maricopa Mayor Christian Price declared a state of emergency Wednesday because of excess rainfall. The move allows city leaders to access additional resources faster if necessary.

The state of emergency is expected to remain in effect until Sunday morning.

The city of Maricopa has received nearly an inch and a half of accumulated rainfall since Wednesday at 7 a.m., according to the Flood Control District of Maricopa County. The day before another inch and a half of rain soaked the area.

Rain was expected Thursday as well, with a 40 percent chance throughout the day. But by Friday, skies were expected to clear and temperatures rise.

The weather service has recorded measurable amounts of rainfall for four of the last seven days. The moisture is considered to be responsible for the decrease in temperatures over the past week.

Since Aug. 15, high temperatures have remained below the normal temperature of 105 degrees, except on Aug. 20, according to the weather service.

The cool off comes after a scorching hot start to August. High temperatures from the start of the month broke four all-time high records, according to the weather service.

Craigslist tells Sheriff Joe to buzz off

Look I am not a pervert that has sex with animals. But if some kinky people want to have sex with animals I think that is their personal business and the government doesn't have any business telling them what they can or can't do.

So thanks Craiglist for telling Sheriff Joe to buzz off.

Cops - Honest, the handcuffed man committed suicide in our squad car! Honest!

If you ask me, it sure sounds like the Jonesboro murdered Chavis Carter.

And anybody that routinely read articles on police crimes knows that the cops can make up some of the wildest, out of this world stories to cover up the crimes they commit.

I guess the cops think that the bigger the lie the easier it is to believe.

Now the cops say;

1) Chavis Carter had blood on his hand so he must have pulled the trigger.

Well duh, the whole squad car was covered with blood. That doesn't mean the rear door which had blood on it pulled the trigger.

2) The girlfriend of Chavis Carter said he called her and said he had a gun.

Well how come this didn't surface in the first interviews. The parents lawyer thinks the cops asked leading questions to come up with this statement of fact, or fiction.

3) A friend of Chavis Carter said he sent him a text message about a gun.

Well where is the text message. The phone companies all save these things specifically for the cops. Where is the text message???

I suspect the message will never be found.

Gay man sues Library of Congress, alleging discrimination

I have a hard time believing that since I don't even think the Christian God exists.

On the other hand I am positive that many of these so called "love your neighbor Christians" hate gay folks as in this article where a man is suing the Library of Congress for discriminating against him because he is gay.

Giving In to the Surveillance State

Was Kristine Bunch framed for arson by the Greensburg police???

The cops and prosecutors tell us they would rather have a 100 guilty people go free then to have one innocent person spend time in prison.

From the 100s of articles like this I have read I think it is exactly the opposite.

I think the cops and prosecutors would prefer that 100 innocent people go to prison if it prevents one guilty person from getting away.

After all it's not about justice!!!

It's about proving the cops and prosecutors are tough on crime so they can get pay raises and advance their careers.

Justice, don't make me laugh!!!

The Criminal InJustice system has nothing to do with Justice. The Criminal Justice system has nothing to do with Justice.

Why are they wasting Arizona tax dollars to enforce Federal marijuana laws???

Last time I checked both Arizona Attorney General Tom Horne and Maricopa County Attorney Bill Montgomery where employees of the state of Arizona, not the Federal government.

If Arizona Attorney General Tom Horne and Maricopa County Attorney Bill Montgomery want to enforce the Federal marijuana laws they should resign from their jobs as Arizona elected officials and get hired by the Federal government as prosecutors.

Until then they should stop wasting our tax dollars in their personal war against Arizona medical marijuana users.

Yes Arizona's Prop 203 does conflict with Federal law.

If they don't like it they should resign from their jobs instead of using our tax dollars to carry out their personal war against the legal users of medical marijuana.

Phoenix cops demonize JP candidate for victimless crime arrest

Benny Arce was arrested in July of 1998 for passing out fliers, which featured partially clothed women which publicized a party.

So what, who cares. Don't these folks have any real dirt to dig up on him.

Sadly Phoenix cop Monica Brown doesn't seem to have any "real criminals" to hunt down. The article says this about her:

Officer Monica Brown, requested that Arce serve jail time. She said Arce did not understand the severity of his actions.

Tyrant Tom Horne files papers to shut down pot dispensaries!!!

It sounds like Tom Horne and his buddy Maricopa County Attorney Bill Montgomery have a personal vendetta against medical marijuana users and are using our tax dollars to carry out that hateful vendetta and repeal Arizona's medical marijuana laws which are Prop 203.

India censors the Internet

The government also imposed a two-week limit of five text messages a day. Authorities pressured Twitter into blocking several accounts parodying the prime minister.

The same US Government that is rumored to have installed a "kill switch" on the American Internet to shut it down if American "free speech" gets out of hand chastised India for blocking "free speech" there.

Lancaster to launch aerial radar surveillance over neighborhoods

The technology, called the Law Enforcement Aerial Platform System, will be attached to a piloted single-engine Cessna.

It's basically a radar system that will give deputies a bird's-eye view of what's happening on the ground.

The tool is similar to drones that are used by the military to survey war zones, with the difference that those are remote-controlled rather than attached to a plane.

Court rules graphic tobacco warnings unconstitutional

On the other hand the way the tobacco companies try to trick people into becoming addicted to their deadly drug is certainly immoral along with being dishonest.

While the solution to that should NOT be government regulation, people who were tricked by the tobacco companies into becoming addicts probably should have some recourse against the tobacco companies. I would have to think about that for a while to come up with a good Libertarian answer. I suspect the answer is something along the lines of allowing the people damaged to sue the companies for false advertizing.

Ron Paul's Backkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkk

DNA frees Texas man framed for murder who spent 24 years in prison

David Lee Wiggins, 48, of Fort Worth was imprisoned in 1989 for rape, largely because the 14-year-old victim picked him out of photo and live lineups. His fingerprints did not match any at the crime scene. Still, he was sentenced to life in prison.

After the hearing, Wiggins went out to lunch with about 10 former Texas prisoners who had been exonerated. [The article doesn't say it, but I suspect all 10 men had also been framed by the Texas police for murder and each had spend years in prison for a crime they didn't commit]

Will DNA testing free Doug Prade????

Gee, this case sounds a lot like Phoenix's Ray Krone case. Ray Krone was framed by the Phoenix Police for murder because they got a quack dentist who was also a member of the Arizona House or Senate to testify that the bite marks matched.

He spent 10 years on death row before he was freed when DNA testing proved he didn't do it.

Ray Krone wasn't just freed from prison, he because a national hero because he was the 100th person to be freed from death row because of DNA tests proved the cops framed him.

Sadly I don't have a lot of pity for Doug Prade. You see Doug Prade is a former Ohio police captain and I suspect that Doug Prade has framed a few innocent people himself and sent them to prison for crimes they didn't commit.

On the other hand you never know. I suspect there are a few honest ethical police officers out there who don't frame people. Maybe Doug Prade was one of them?

On the other hand if Doug Prade is one of the majority of crooked police officers who has framed many innocent people and sent them to prison, if he fesses up to his crimes as a police officer this could open the flood gates and make people realize that the police routinely frame innocent people and send them to prison.

Is it legal for civilian light rail narcs to write light rail tickets

All the light rail narcs that the cities of Tempe and Mesa use to write people tickets for riding on the light rail without paying are civilians, who are rent-a-pigs or rent-a-cops.

Is it legal for civilian DTC rent-a-cops to write parking tickets

DTC is the Downtown Tempe Community which is a private, non-government, non-profit corporation which somehow has weaseled it's way into writing tickets for parking violations in Downtown Tempe.

Tempe has replaced all it's police meter maids that used to write parking violations, parking tickets or parking citations in Downtown Tempe with private civilian employees who work for DTC. And of course these civilian employees that work for the non-government private corporation DTC write all the traffic tickets that are issued in Downtown Tempe.

Now the odd thing is when you get a parking ticket that was written by a private civilian who works for the private non-government DTC corporation you have to go to a government court, which is the Tempe City court.

The "War on Drugs" causes car thefts???

The article doesn't mention it but stolen cars are frequently stolen so they can be traded for drugs.

The bottom line is that if you legalize drugs and end the insane unconstitutional "war on drugs" you will reduce the number of car thefts.

The "War on Drugs" cause 4th Amendment to be flushed down the toilet

Sadly the cops have used the insane and unconstitutional "war on drugs" to more or less flush the Fourth Amendment down the toilet.

First "man on the moon" dead

Neil Armstrong the first "man on the moon" dies

Normally I try to avoid glorifying government bureaucrats and thieves, but even if he was an overpaid government bureaucrat Neil Armstrong was the first person to walk on the moon so I will put the article about his death on my web page.

The way to fix this problem is to get government out of the space exploration business and let the private sector do it.

California lawmakers say 'No gifts, please' but accept them anyway

In this article a number of politicians have signs up saying they don't except gifts, but the signs are lies designed to make the voters think the politicians are working for the voters, not the special interest groups that helped them get elected.

Cops want to flush 1st Amendment to stop prostitution???

Of course that is pretty much what the "war on drugs" has done to the 4th Amendment.

That's is kind of like making illegal to have matches to stop the few arsonists that used them to start fires.

Sure it's a great way to stop arsonists, except for the minor problem of the millions of people that use matches legally whom you will inconvenience to stop a few arsonists.

She also pointed out that about 60 to 70 percent of the people in prisons are there for victimless drug war crimes.

Strategy the Christian nut jobs used to take over the GOP

The reason this strategy works very well is because 99 percent of the people could care less about politics. And of course when that happens it is very easy for the one percent of the people who do care about politics to take over the government and then in turn enslave the rest of the 99 percent of the people who don't care.

This isn't anything NEW, it's the same tactic or strategy that special interest groups have been using for years to force their special interests on the rest of us using government.

Rita's on Mill Avenue

I didn't plan on attending because I figured there would be a line a half mile long and it would cost me $50 in my time to get a free $2 snow cone.

I was wrong on that and as I walked down Mill Avenue I saw the sign saying free ice cream at Rita's Italian Ice and most important no line.

So I walked in and got my free snow cone.

I figured it would be a snow cone from heaven, but it wasn't that hot, other then being free. It was just a normal run of the mill snow cone you can get anywhere.

When I was in the Midwest I noticed they had a lot of these Rita restaurant which look like a Bob's or Denny's restaurant create Midwestern style, so I was expecting a very tasty, but fattening and unhealthy cone.

I was wrong on that.

San Francisco archbishop busted for DUI

Personally I feel that most DUI arrests by the government are just a bunch of money grabbing government crooks robbing people of their money for a victimless crime that usually hurts no one.

But our religious leaders try to make themselves out as better and more moral then the rest of us so it is amusing that these hypocrites get busted for DUI or DWI.

We had a blue moon last night

On the plus side full moons are nice because you can walk around in the desert during the middle of the night and see stuff much better.

On the minus side it's a lot easier for somebody to see where you are sleeping and kill you when a full moon is lighting up your campsite.

OK, you probably think I am on drugs because I saw a blue moon last night.

Just what is a "blue moon".

Some interesting letters to the editor

Yuma police ordered to return marijuana they stole from MMJ patient

A few year back I saw a snake like this after copwatching. Also this year just after I became homeless again I also saw a snake like this in the desert.

A snake in my bedroom

I started to get up and heard the animal move.

I pulled out my flashlight and discovered there was another snake in my bedroom. Scared the holy sh*t out of me.

I don't know if the snake was a rattlesnake. Again it didn't rattle at me.

This snake also seemed to be about 3 feet long like the other snake I saw a few hours earlier.

I continue pointing my flashlight at the snake and finally it slithered off.

I was terrified and wanted to leave and go sleep somewhere else, but I figured this wasn't the first time animals were checking me out while I was sleeping so I just slept the rest of the night at this location.

Also I suspect that August is the month the snakes come out, or at least mingle with people. A recent article in the Arizona Republic said that most of the people bitten by snakes in Arizona are bitten in either August or September.

Sick people who have to pay between $50 to $300 an ounce for medical marijuana would be forced to pay an additional $150 to $900 tax on each ounce of medical marijuana they purchased, raising the price of medical marijuana from $50 to $300 an ounce to an outrageous $200 to $1,200 an ounce.

Kyrsten Sinema claims to support the "little people" but this tax is a perfect example that she could care less about the little people and only cares about the special interest groups who helped her get elected.

While we are on the subject of how Kyrsten Sinema claims to support the "little people" she used to support the down and out people, or at least claimed to. Now some of the biggest backers of Kyrsten Sinema are the police unions. Sadly Kyrsten Sinema has sold out to the special interest groups that helped here get into power and no longer supports the "little people".

One last chance to stop Arizona private prison

According to Dianne Post, who gave a talk at HSGP on this subject last Sunday the main reason Jan Brewer supports these unneeded prisons is that the corporations who run private prisons and who will get this contract gave Brewer $60,000 in bribes, or campaign contributions.

Dianne Post also said that even in the current police state environment we are in Arizona has plenty of room in it's prison to warehouse the people who will be placed there for the next several years and there is not need for more prison space.

New Times can sue Sheriff Joe Arpaio for false arrest

News execs can sue Arpaio for arrest, court rules

Aug. 29, 2012 12:10 PM

Associated Press

Two newspaper executives who were arrested by Sheriff Joe Arpaio's office after a series of critical articles can sue the man who calls himself America's toughest sheriff.

The 9th Circuit U.S. Court of Appeals on Wednesday overturned a lower court ruling that Phoenix New Times co-owners Michael Lacey and Jim Larkin could not sue authorities for the 2007 arrest. The men were arrested after revealing that Arpaio's allies in the Maricopa County attorney's office obtained a grand jury subpoena to identify sources for articles about the sheriff. Arpaio and the prosecutors eventually backed off.

The court ruled the executives could sue Arpaio for false arrest and violations of their First and 14th Amendment rights, among other claims.

New Times is an alternative weekly that is part of Village Voice Media.

My Will

I am still a bit nervous about that snake that visited my bedroom last night

I am still a bit upset about that.

That thought of a rattlesnake crawling around in my bed is creepy.

On the other hand I suspect animals visit me all the time while I am sleeping and I never find out about it because I am sleeping.

U.S.-raised woman deported to Mexico

When she was a month-and-a-half old, Aca's mother took her to the United States. She lived in Phoenix for 27 years. She attended Central High School. She worked. She got married. She gave birth to two children, now ages 4 and 6.

Let's face it government is the cause of the problem, not the solution to the problem.

As H. L. Mencken said:

"The whole aim of practical politics is to keep the populace alarmed (and hence clamorous to be led to safety) by menacing it with an endless series of hobgoblins, all of them imaginary."

VIDEO: Arizona Gov. Jan Brewer endorses President Barack Obama at Republican National Convention?

TAMPA, FL - A day after endorsing GOP presidential candidate Mitt Romney at the Republican National Convention in Tampa, Arizona Governor Jan Brewer gave a live interview to MSNBC, apparently slipping up and endorsing his opponent, President Barack Obama.

The video is so hot on the internet, the Governor's office released a statement to ABC15 Wednesday night saying Brewer didn't mean it.

"Governor Brewer misspoke, obviously, and certainly isn't the first official to have done so amid the noise and chaos of a crowded convention hall or rally. It happens - even to newscasters and TV pros. Regardless, given the Governor's record of challenging President Obama, it's a stretch to think anyone would believe she's supporting his re-election. The Governor stands with Mitt Romney."

Honest Mexican cops??? Don't make me laugh!!!!!

Mexican President Felipe Calderon has failed on both counts. His insane "war on drugs" has cause the murder of 50,000+ people in Mexico.

And of course Mexican President Felipe Calderon effort to make Mexican cops honest is also a dismal failure.

If you ask me I liked the old way better.

You only had to pay a small bribe to make the piggies happy. And even better nobody was getting killed in Mexico over America's stupid, illegal and unconstitutional war on drugs, which Felipe Calderon brought to Mexico.

DNA frees man who spent 17 years in prison after being framed by Chicago Police

Of course the prosecutors opposed Nash's request for DNA testing because after all, they didn't want to look bad, if it was discovered that he spent 17 years in prison after being railroaded by corrupt Chicago cops and prosecuted by corrupt Cook County prosecutors.

Sadly the "criminal justice" system isn't about justice at all. If you ask me it the "criminal justice" system should be renamed the "criminal injustice" system.

2 years in prison for killing a cat????

If Maricopa County Animal Control picks up a stray cat they are going to hold it a few days and then kill it if nobody claims its.

So from that I don't think they put much value in the lives of animals that are not owned by people.

So based on that it seems like the government is using a double standard when it sentenced Russell Christopher Hofstad to 2 years in prison for killing a stray cat.

Yes, Russell Christopher Hofstad sounds like a nut job, but other then eating the cat, he didn't do anything that Maricopa County Animal Control would not have done.

The burglary charge seems like a trumped up version of a misdemeanor trespassing charge. From the article it sounds like he was trespassing because he was living in the building. The article didn't say anything was stolen.

I witnessed a Mesa cop attack a man at the light rail station

The man was just walking across the street and was in the middle of the street near the light rail train tracks when a cop pulled up with, got out of his car and then used some martial arts tactic that looked like a judo throw to toss the man to the ground.

The man who was attacked did absolutely nothing to provoked the attack.

Here are a couple of reasons why you should be terrified for your life if you report crimes you witness the police committing.

• In this article Arizona Department of Public Safety Officer Robb Gary Evans makes many threats to arrest anybody that gets in his way of stopping his crimes.
• In this article the Washington D.C. cops steal the cellphone and memory card of a guy who was using it to videotape the crimes of Washington D.C. police officers.
• In this article the New York City Police Department beat the living sh*t out of Luis Solivan. The crooked New York City cops committed perjury and instead charged Luis Solivan with attacking them.

Feds - No charges to be filed against Sheriff Joe Arpaio

Did you expect anything different???

When there is a slim chance President Obama could win the Presidential election in Arizona in 2012 Emperor Obama is certainly not going to press charges against the most popular politician in Arizona, who is also the biggest criminal in Arizona.

US Post Office jobs program for government bureaucrats???

Yea, maybe so, but the the U.S. Congress has given the U.S. Post Office a special advantage over other private businesses that compete with it, but still the private businesses like UPS and FedEx still kick post office butt when it comes to delivering the mail.

Per Federal law, any private business that delivers the mail has to either deliver it for FREE, or charge 3 times, three times what the U.S. Post Office charges.

Despite this unlevel playing field created by the U.S. Congress UPS and FedEx still kick postal butt and deliver the mail faster then the US Post Office does.

While UPS and FedEx have to charge 3 times what the US Post Office charges their internal cost to deliver the mail are lower then the U.S. Post Office's costs.
