More on the explosions in Louisiana and other strange happenings

More and more questions coming up from the explosion(s) in Louisiana  that I reported on yesterday.

I will be following this story closely- along with several friends of mine.  I will update here as more information becomes available. Below the video are the notes and links from the YouTube page and several of the links are ones that I posted yesterday.

Hooray Hooray For Arizona




Hooray Hooray For Arizona !!!!!!!!!!!!!

Mexico is angry!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Wow!  And make certain you read, at the bottom of this  page, the part that says it will take 30 more seconds to read!!! This is what  needs to be done, in my opinion!  Please forward to all you know  and ask them to forward to all they know.  Maybe, together, we can make this  happen!

The shoe is on the other foot and the Mexicans from the State  of Sonora , Mexico do not like it. Can you believe the nerve of these people?  It's almost funny. The State of Sonora is angry at the influx of Mexicans into  Mexico !!!

Nine state legislators from the Mexican State of Sonora  traveled to Tucson to complain about Arizona 's new employer crackdown on  illegals from Mexico . It seems that many Mexican illegals are returning to  their hometowns and the officials in the Sonora state government are ticked  off. A delegation of nine state legislators from Sonora was in Tucson on  Tuesday to state that Arizona 's new 'Employer Sanctions Law' will have a  devastating effect on the Mexican state. At a news conference, the legislators  said that Sonora, - Arizona's southern neighbor - made up of mostly small  towns - can not handle the demand for housing, jobs and schools that it will  face as Mexican workers return to their hometowns from the USA without jobs or  money.

The Arizona law, which took effect Jan. 1, punishes Arizona  employers who knowingly hire individuals without valid legal documents to work  in the United States . Penalties include suspension of, or loss of, their  business license. The Mexican legislators are angry because their own citizens  are returning to their hometowns, placing a burden on THEIR state  government.

'How can Arizona pass a law like this?' asked Mexican Rep  Leticia Amparano-Gamez, who represents Nogales . 'There is not one person  living in Sonora who does not have a friend or relative working in Arizona ,'  she said, speaking in Spanish. 'Mexico is not prepared for this, for the  tremendous problems it will face as more and more Mexicans working in Arizona  and who were sending money to their families return to their hometowns in  Sonora without jobs,' she said 'We are one family, socially and economically,'  she said of the people of Sonora and Arizona .

Wrong! The United States  is a sovereign nation, not a subsidiary of Mexico , and its taxpayers are not  responsible for the welfare of Mexico 's citizens. It's time for the Mexican  government, and its citizens, to stop feeding parasitically off the United  States and to start taking care of its/their own needs.

Too bad that  other states within the USA don't pass a law just like that passed by Arizona  . Maybe that's the answer, since our own Congress will do  nothing!

                      ***New Immigration Laws***

Be sure to read to the bottom or you will miss the message...

1. There  will be no special bilingual programs in the schools.
2. All ballots will  be in this nation's language.
3. All government business will be conducted  in our language.
4. Non-residents will NOT have the right to vote no matter  how long they are here.
5. Non-citizens will NEVER be able to hold  political office.
6. Foreigners will not be a burden to the taxpayers. No  welfare, no food stamps, no health care, or other government assistance  programs. Any burden will be deported.
7. Foreigners can invest in this  country, but it must be an amount at least equal to 40,000 times the daily  minimum wage.
8. If foreigners come here and buy land... Options will be  restricted. Certain parcels including waterfront property are reserved for  citizens naturally born into this country.
9. Foreigners may have NO  protests; NO demonstrations, NO waving of a foreign flag, no political  organizing, NO bad-mouthing our president or his policies. These will lead to  deportation.
10. If you do come to this country illegally, you will be  actively hunted and, when caught, sent to jail until your deportation can be  arranged. All assets will be taken from you.

Too strict?
The above laws are current  immigration laws of MEXICO !

This will take less than  thirty seconds to read. If you agree, please pass it on. An idea whose time  has come: Somehow, that doesn't seem logical. We do not have an elite that is  above the law. The self-serving must stop. This is a good way to do that. It  is an idea whose time has come. Have each person contact a minimum of twenty  people on their address list, in turn ask each of those to do  likewise.

In three days, most people in The United States of America  will have read the message. This is one proposal that really should be passed  around.

***Proposed 28th Amendment to the United States Constitution***

"Congress shall make no law that applies to the  citizens of the United States that does not apply equally to all members of  Congress, Senators and/or Representatives; and, Congress shall make no law  that applies to all members of Congress, Senators and/or Representatives that  does not apply equally to the citizens of the United States.

You are one of my 20.
If you don't have twenty, pass it on to whatever number you can!

A Father, a Daughter and a Dog-



A Father, a Daughter and a Dog-
A true story by Catherine Moore

"Watch out! You nearly broad sided that car!" My father yelled at me. "Can't you do anything right?"

Those words hurt worse than blows. I turned my head toward the elderly man in the seat beside me, daring me to challenge him. A lump rose in my throat as I averted my eyes. I wasn't prepared for another battle.
"I saw the car, Dad . Please don't yell at me when I'm driving.."My voice was measured and steady, sounding far calmer than I really felt.

Dad glared at me, then turned away and settled back. At home I left Dad in front of the television and went outside to collect my thoughts..... dark, heavy clouds hung in the air with a promise of rain. The rumble of distant thunder seemed to echo my inner turmoil. What could I do about him?

Dad had been a lumberjack in Washington and Oregon . He had enjoyed being outdoors and had reveled in pitting his strength against the forces of nature. He had entered grueling lumberjack competitions, and had placed often. The shelves in his house were filled with trophies that attested to his prowess.

The years marched on relentlessly. The first time he couldn't lift a heavy log, he joked about it; but later that same day I saw him outside alone, straining to lift it.. He became irritable whenever anyone teased him about his advancing age, or when he couldn't do something he had done as a younger man.

Four days after his sixty-seventh birthday, he had a heart attack. An ambulance sped him to the hospital while a paramedic administered CPR to keep blood and oxygen flowing. At the hospital, Dad was rushed into an operating room..

He was lucky; he survived. But something inside Dad died. His zest for life was gone. He obstinately refused to follow doctor's orders. Suggestions and offers of help were turned aside with sarcasm and insults. The number of visitors thinned, then finally stopped altogether. Dad was left alone..

My husband, Dick, and I asked Dad to come live with us on our small farm. We hoped the fresh air and rustic atmosphere would help himadjust.

Within a week after he moved in, I regretted the invitation. It seemed nothing was satisfactory. He criticized everything I did. I became frustrated and moody.

Soon I was taking my pent-up anger out on Dick. We began to bicker and argue. Alarmed, Dick sought out our pastor and explained the situation. The clergyman set up weekly counseling appointments for us. At the close of each session he prayed, asking God to soothe Dad's troubled mind.

But the months wore on and God was silent. Something had to be done and it was up to me to do it.

The next day I sat down with the phone book and methodically called each of the mental health clinics listed in the Yellow Pages. I explained my problem to each of the sympathetic voices that answered in vain.
Just when I was giving up hope, one of the voices suddenly exclaimed, "I just read something that might help you! Let me go get the article."

I listened as she read. The article described a remarkable study done at a nursing home. All of the patients were under treatment for chronic
depression. Yet their attitudes had proved dramatically when they were given responsibility for a dog.

I drove to the animal shelter that afternoon.. After I filled out a questionnaire, a uniformed officer led me to the kennels. The odor of disinfectant stung my nostrils as I moved down the row of pens. Each contained five to seven dogs. Long-haired dogs, curly-haired dogs, black dogs, spotted dogs all jumped up, trying to reach me. I studied each one but rejected one after the other for various reasons too big, too small, too much hair. As I neared the last pen a dog in the shadows of the far corner struggled to his feet, walked to the front of the run and sat down. It was a pointer, one of the dog world's aristocrats. But this was a caricature of the breed. Years had etched his face and muzzle with shades of gray. His hip bones jutted out in lopsided triangles. But it was his eyes that caught and held my attention. Calm and clear, they beheld me unwaveringly.

I pointed to the dog. "Can you tell me about him?" The officer looked, then shook his head in puzzlement. "He's a funny one. Appeared out of nowhere and sat in front of the gate. We brought him in, figuring someone would be right down to claim him. That was two weeks ago and we've heard nothing. His time is up tomorrow." He gestured helplessly.

As the words sank in I turned to the man in horror.. "You mean you're going to kill him?"

"Ma'am," he said gently, "that's our policy. We don't have room for every unclaimed dog."

I looked at the pointer again. The calm brown eyes awaited my decision. "I'll take him," I said. I drove home with the dog on the front seat beside me..

When I reached the house I honked the horn twice. I was helping my prize out of the car when Dad shuffled onto the front porch... "Ta-da! Look what I got for you, Dad !" I said excitedly.

Dad looked, then wrinkled his face in disgust. "If I had wanted a dog I would have gotten one. And I would have picked out a better specimen than that bag of bones. Keep it! I don't want it" Dad waved his arm scornfully and turned back toward the house.

Anger rose inside me.. It squeezed together my throat muscles and pounded into my temples. "You'd better get used to him, Dad. He's staying!"

Dad ignored me.. "Did you hear me, Dad ?" I screamed. At those words Dad whirled angrily, his hands clenched at his sides, his eyes narrowed and blazing with hate. We stood glaring at each other like duelists, when suddenly the pointer pulled free from my grasp. He wobbled toward my dad and sat down in front of him. Then slowly, carefully, he raised his paw..

Dad's lower jaw trembled as he stared at the uplifted paw confusion replaced the anger in his eyes. The pointer waited patiently. Then Dad was on his knees hugging the animal.

It was the beginning of a warm and intimate friendship. Dad named the pointer Cheyenne . Together he and Cheyenne explored the community. They spent long hours walking down dusty lanes. They spent reflective moments on the banks of streams, angling for tasty trout. They even started to attend Sunday services together, Dad sitting in a pew and Cheyenne lying quietly at his feet.

Dad and Cheyenne were inseparable throughout the next three years. Dad's bitterness faded, and he and Cheyenne made many friends. Then late one night I was startled to feel Cheyenne's cold nose burrowing through our bed covers. He had never before come into our bedroom at night.. I woke Dick, put on my robe and ran into my father's room. Dad lay in his bed, his face serene. But his spirit had left quietly sometime during the night.

Two days later my shock and grief deepened when I discovered Cheyenne lying dead beside Dad's bed. I wrapped his still form in the rag rug he had slept on.

As Dick and I buried him near a favourite fishing hole, I silently thanked the dog for the help he had given me in restoring Dad's peace of mind.

The morning of Dad's funeral dawned overcast and dreary. This day looks like the way I feel, I thought, as I walked down the aisle to the pews reserved for family. I was surprised to see the many friends Dad and Cheyenne had made filling the church... The pastor began his eulogy. It was a tribute to both Dad and the dog who had changed his life.

And then the pastor turned to Hebrews 13:2. "Do not neglect to show hospitality to strangers, for by this some have entertained angels without knowing it."

"I've often thanked God for sending that angel," he said.

For me, the past dropped into place, completing a puzzle that I had not seen before: the sympathetic voice that had just read the right article...
Cheyenne's unexpected appearance at the animal shelter ....his calm
acceptance and complete devotion to my father. . and the proximity of their deaths. And suddenly I understood. I knew that God had answered my prayers after all.


Life is too short for drama or petty things, so laugh hard, love truly and
forgive quickly. Live While You Are Alive. Forgive now those who made you cry. You might not get a second time.

And if you don't send this to at least 4 people ---nobody cares.. But do share this with someone. Lost time can never be found.

God answers our prayers in His time........not ours..

Cherokee Nation Demands Scott Brown Apologize For ‘Downright Racist’ Taunts

Cherokee Nation Demands Scott Brown Apologize For ‘Downright Racist’ Taunts

The chief of the Cherokee Nation on Wednesday demanded an apology from Sen. Scott Brown (R-Mass.) for what he called an “uneducated, unenlightened and racist portrayal of native peoples” by senior staff on his campaign and in his Senate office.
At a recent campaign rally, senior Brown staffers led a crowd of Brown supporters in a series of “war whoop chants” and “tomahawk chops,” an attempt to mock Elizabeth Warren for citing her Native American ancestry in a Harvard guidebook.
“The Cherokee Nation is disappointed in and denounces the disrespectful actions of staffers and supporters of Massachusetts Sen. Scott Brown. The conduct of these individuals goes far beyond what is appropriate and proper in political discourse. The use of stereotypical ‘war whoop chants’ and ‘tomahawk chops’ are offensive and downright racist,” said Bill John Baker, principal chief of the Cherokee Nation, in a statement. “The individuals involved in this unfortunate incident are high ranking staffers in both the senate office and the Brown campaign. A campaign that would allow and condone such offensive and racist behavior must be called to task for their actions.”
During the first debate between Brown and Warren, Brown told the audience that he could tell by looking at Warren, who was born in Oklahoma, that she does not have any Native American lineage. He later denied having said that.
Brown, asked by reporters to respond to criticism of his senior staff at the rally, said that Warren committed the “real offense” for listing herself as Native American. “That’s not something I condone. That’s certainly something, if I am aware of it, I would tell that member not to do it again,” he said. ”I know everyone is in the throes of the political season. I ask everyone to show real class and decorum on both sides.”
At separate rally, however, a Brown supporter let out another “war whoop” and Brown didn’t respond, though he didn’t actively condone the act, either. The video was posted on a local GOP website and spotted by BlueMassGroup, which also found audio of Brown laughing at Native American jokes in reference to Warren.
Warren says she was told growing up that she descended from a Cherokee woman. Brown’s campaign has demanded proof, but records from that time barely exist.
Brown, by denying the charge he himself had made at the debate, and by refusing to apologize, risks losing the high ground on what he clearly sees as an advantageous issue.
“The Cherokee Nation is a modern, productive society, and I am blessed to be their chief. I will not be silent when individuals mock and insult our people and our great nation,” Baker said. “We need individuals in the United States Senate who respect Native Americans and have an understanding of tribal issues. For that reason, I call upon Sen. Brown to apologize for the offensive actions of his staff and their uneducated, unenlightened and racist portrayal of native peoples.”
Baker, of course, is not an unbiased observer. He was a Democratic delegate to the party’s national convention in Charlotte, N.C.

Nanny state is no longer on steroids.  It has turned into the Incredible Hulk
Paul Joseph Watson
Prison Planet.com
September 25, 2012
From people being harassed for paying by cash or having a food garden, to Americans being arrested for letting their children play outside – innumerable examples over the past few months alone illustrate that the United States is no longer a free country.
The nanny state is no longer just on steroids, it has turned into the Incredible Hulk as collectivism, pernicious bureaucracy, regulation, mass surveillance and outright tyranny runs wild across the country.
Here are just a selection of stories from scores of recent examples illustrating how America is ‘land of the Free, home of the brave’ no more.
- Parents across the country are being arrested for letting their children play outside. A stay at home mom in Texas was held in jail for 18 hours [1] for allowing her children to ride on scooters while she was watching them from her home. A mother in Virginia was also harassed by social services and police [2]for the egregious crime of allowing their children to play outside in another example of how the nanny state is running wild in America.
- The war on lemonade stands [3], traditionally viewed as a quaint example of America’s entrepreneurial spirit, has intensified in recent months with cops slapping parents with fines for letting their kids run “unlicensed” lemonade stands in three separate incidents over the last year alone. A map of restrictions [4] on child-run concession stands illustrates how there have been dozens of examples of police interference across the country.
- After an 11-year battle with the state of Oregon, landowner Gary Harrington was found guilty under a 1925 law and sentenced to spend 30 days in jail [5] for collecting rainwater in three “illegal reservoirs” despite the fact that they are on his property.
- Last year, Oak Park, Michigan resident Julie Bass faced jail time [6] for the crime of growing a “vegetable garden in front yard space.”
- Americans are being harassed by utility workers [7] who are trespassing on private property and forcibly trying to install “smart” energy meters which spy on homeowners.
- Cities are passing ordinances [8] that makes recycling compulsory from, with those who fail to comply under threat of fines up to $2500 dollars. In Cleveland, people who fail to recycle are flagged by the RFID chip embedded in their trash can, added to a database and then targeted by green cops [9] who are dispatched to intimidate homeowners.
- The Eleventh Circuit US Court of Appeals has ruled [10] that private contractors operating toll roads on behalf of the state have the power to detain and store records on motorists who pay by cash at toll booths – another example of how using cash is increasingly being treated as a suspicious activity.
- Earlier this year we reported [11]on how the FBI was telling businesses to treat people who use cash to pay for a cup of coffee as potential terrorists.
- We also recently highlighted the case of Texas resident Julia Garcia [12], who was falsely imprisoned and harassed by Wal-Mart employees for attempting to buy goods with a $100 dollar bill the Wal-Mart cashiers erroneously claimed was fake.
- Earlier this year a Tennessee man was charged and jailed [13] by police after using an old $50 bill to pay for goods at a Quik Mart store which turned out to be genuine.
- A DOJ-funded police training manual [14]tells cops to treat people who have a political opinion that “represents a fairly popular point of view” or those who display a political bumper sticker supporting the bill of rights as terrorists.
- The Obama administration has successfully reinstated [15] the indefinite detention provisions of the National Defense Authorization Act, which allow American citizens to be kidnapped and held without charge.
- The TSA has expanded its grope-down checkpoints [16]beyond the airports to highways, political events and even school prom nights.
- The TSA is kicking Americans off flights for having a “bad attitude” [17]and refusing to obey bizarre orders quickly enough.
- A teenager was recently visited by FBI special agents [18]who grilled him over the content of a political You Tube video.
- Americans are being harassed and having their Fourth Amendment rights violated at so-called “border checkpoints” [19] which are actually hundreds of miles within the border.
- The EPA is using spy drones to monitor farms [20]as police use Predator drones to hunt down Americans [21] for the crime of allowing cows to wander onto their land.
- Parents are being harassed [22] and investigated by Child Protective Services and police for feeding his daughters organic food, refusing to make them drink fluoride-poisoned tap water and not having them injected with mercury-laden vaccines.
- Police arrested Napa Creek resident Amy Larson [23]for writing “9/11 truth now” in chalk on a sidewalk.
- A Texas police officer shot 45-year-old double amputee Brian Claunch dead [24] after he threatened officers with what turned out to be a ballpoint pen.
- While the government stockpiles ammo in the billions, Americans like Brian Loftus are being questioned [25] by police for buying a couple of boxes of bullets at their local gun store.
- Americans like James Ian Tyson [26] are being put on terror watchlists in response to traffic violations in order to prevent them from attending protests.
- Students in schools across the country are being indoctrinated to accept their treatment as prisoners on parole [27] by being forced to wear RFID tracking chips.
- Police departments are attempting to secure approval to spy on Americans with drones as well as surveillance blimps that hover 400 feet above a city [28] and report on “suspicious activity.”
- The Californian city of Lancaster will be the first to experience a “new era in law enforcement surveillance” with residents set to be watched by a permanent eye in the sky [29] which will beam constant video footage back to police headquarters including crimes in progress as well as “scenes of mundane day-to-day life.”
- The National Security Agency is storing all electronic communications and analyzing them in real time [30] in complete violation of the Fourth Amendment.
- Facebook is spying on people’s private conversations [31] for “suspicious behavior” and reporting them to police.
- Former Marine Brandon Raub was kidnapped [32]from his home by police, FBI and Secret Service agents and forcibly incarcerated in a psychiatric ward by authorities in Virginia in response to political Facebook posts.
- Veterans across the country are being declared “mentally defective” [33] on a whim by the state and having their firearms seized.
- The federal government is officially backing Al-Qaeda fighters in Syria while declaring conservative Americans to be extremists [34] and terrorists if they are “reverent of individual liberty.” [35]
Land of the free, home of the brave?
Most of the these stories are just from the last few months alone.
America is no longer a free country.
The state has declared war on the American people.

Politicized, Militarized Homeland Security Department Unveils New Panzer Division



25 September 2012

Politicized, Militarized Homeland Security Department Unveils New Panzer Division

This to go along with it's 1.2 BILLION rounds of ammo 
(22 lead slugs for each-and-every Republican) and
armored checkpoint booths... nothing to worry about, tho!


To the list of recent unsettling developments at DHS and other federal agencies -such as FEMA camp expansions, massive DHS ammo buys, a creepy new biometric surveillance system just being rolled-out by the FBI, and drones buzzing our backyards with cameras- we can now add the appearance across the country of not just heavily-armored military grade Humvees, but 'GLS' armored personnel carriers (APC's) such as in the picture above-
2500 of them to be exact.


According to reports the Department of Homeland Security is expecting significant push-back in the very near future, which explains why they already have thousands of heavily armored vehicles in DHS 'Police/Rescue' livery, resplendent in either a dashing Gulf War tan or menacing stealth-anthracite:

" What could they need equipment like this for here in the US? They are hitting the road with it. Caravans of National Guard equipment but with new never before seen equipment in the convoys. Take a close look at what is painted on the side of the Black Humvees. The Humvees are fully armored the same standard used by our military.

The use of the word '‘Rescue'’ is an obvious psy-op... …makes it sound nice and benign, kind of like a life-saving paramedic ambulance and not a domination and death machine. The Posse Comitatus Act is gone
"



They've got a point- these things don't look like they're designed to be rescuing anybody, except maybe a pinned-down DHS agent in an upcoming civil war:


Incompetano's DHS is reportedly gearing up for 'serious business' and has engaged in training the National Guard, FEMA and Police with the behomoths. The GLS  is a deadly serious piece of equipment and they have 'never been used inside the US' until now....this sucker ought to put an end to any anti-Progressive TEA Party nonsense (in the wake of cancelled elections), stat:


The International® MaxxPro® is Navistar Defense’s Mine Resistant Ambush Protected (MRAP) vehicle and incorporates the latest design in armoring technology. Extensively tested by the military and used in theater today, the MaxxPro features a V-shaped hull and other design features that greatly improve survivability. With so much protection, it’s the vehicle that every crew wants when they’re out in the field.
MaxxPro® MRAP specifications:
Length: 254″ (21.2 feet)
Width: 102″ (8.5 feet)
Height: 120″ (10 feet)
Wheel base: 153″ (12.8 feet)
Curb weight: 37,850 lbs. (18.9 tons)
Engine: MaxxForce® 9.3
The MaxxPro MRAP is built to withstand ballistic arms fire, mine blasts, IEDs, and other emerging threats. Its V-shaped hull helps deflect blasts out and away from the crew and its armoring can be customized to meet any mission requirement...
civil war 
Homeland Security the GLS vehicle and Humvees
