    Re: Military tech doesn't belong with police.

    Great response! Policing absolutely is broken.

    Your comment

    ... If the ACTUAL military used tactics like these they'd be censured or prosecuted...
    is insight in that the "Actual Military" would not use these tactics on a Civilian Target. Let's recall a comment made Dem Nominee Clinton on the safety and security of the Children, and Women on the Abbottabad Bin Laden Compound raid by US Navy SEAL Team 6.

    There was nothing Military about this confrontation. It was conducted by untrained, Police playing with Military Technology - yes, it is technology that you need to be specifically trained in.

    I say bankrupt that Police Department - they won't have a budget for grown-up toys.

    Reading this hurt my brain.

    I had to take Stelazine for the onset of a Panic attack, and some Propranolol for the Migraine.

    Even a small amount of Education could cure this.

    At work, I put on a notice board with a joke and running fallacy with it. I even wrote the word Fallacy, as in "Guilty of the..."

    I was reported because "She knew what a fallacy is, and it was offensive and disgusting. I bought her a fucking dictionary.

    The picture is worth a thousand words - or maybe a book or two.

    Man oh man

    Boy! You guys are in so much trouble...

    Yeah, that's not how this works, though I wouldn't be surprised to see them send another email claiming otherwise.

    It's stuff like this that's just going to make 'em madder... that whole Butterfly Effect thingie but with Stomping Feet :)

    Precedent because of Citizens' Ignorance?

    Can the FBI cite previous submission(s) to their requests as setting precedent in having access to this information?

    Banking on that lack of information, or misinformation?

    I don't trust them...

    An ancient Proverb says, "The Cock does not crow until the Dawn."

    People are looking too far and too much into the future of this entire copyright v. Fan-funded movie debacle. It could go on for years longer. Do they (CBS and Paramount Shareholders) really care about the reactions and comments from Abrams or Lin?

    I just don't trust them at their words. They could simply take it all, because CBS and Paramount believe it is their Property; "They own it".

    They now have an idea of what fans are capable of creating, and now they would just have to meet, then exceed these expectations... even if it is by a miniscule amount of production.

    Monday ( profile ), 27 May, 2016 @ 09:42am

    It is quite obvious...

    ... that everyone posting here sees the link between 25k$ and the attack on the FCC, SO why does the FBI not step in and do something about this? What about every one of his constituents? It is illegal at some level? isn't it? You cannot just take money and then go to work for Big Cable. You just can't! This is not a coincidence! It is not Affinity!! And, it certainly is countermanding the public's / population's best interest!!! He took money for favor, and there is no denying this link!
    Any logical line of questioning would get to this conclusion, and could hold him culpable.

    Twenty-five grand just didn't get Big Cable a quick one w/happy ending, but they're fucking millions... and you still get wood on the morning after.

    It is obvious... hold to account...

    Rip 'er a new one...

    THE SECOND I READ Is fact checking dead at the Gray Lady?, I knew this was going to be a treat. And, I thought immediately of the TD article of Nov 2, 2012

    Y'all know the drill...

    NEED TO KNOW ONLY.

    I have personally executed the NIT on a computer under my control and observed that it did not make any changes to the security settings on my computer or otherwise render it more vulnerable to intrusion than it already was. Additionally, it did not “infect” my computer or leave any residual malware on my computer.

    It was OFF!

    Confused as hell...

    I don't get it. So, instead of getting rid of the real problem; the hired professionals who screwed the pooch in the first place, Yubnub is getting rid of the free talent, and being openly hostile to dedicated fans/users/subscribers of what was essentially a good product?

    How does that work? How does that work out for them?

    I read that they had some new investment. Was that a Troll, or was that for reals? 'cuz, for reals, could mean it might be leading to them moving to a private/public business model, meaning they're going the way of product development and sales.

    Re: Bully has Billionaire Backer

    First, WOW!!! We have seen what has been happening with the Peer Review process over the last two and a half decades. Even this has been corrupted, and with billionaire backing, it was an inevitable outcome to see literal shit published. The scientific credibility and legitimacy in question, is a great way for the man - Peter Duesberg, to round out his career… do you remember Paul Kammerer, and the discussion he had with a hanfgun after somebody falsified his data – which I still firmly contend was done without his knowledge. The career of this man (Duesberg) isn't quite as stellar as Kammerer’s was, bio-speaking of course.

    Dr Mark Wainberg’s call to jail AIDS Dissidents is a little extreme, and frankly, unconstitutional. Remember, “Brute force crushes many things…”. AND, it is always the foot soldier whom appears to set up the new Kingdoms, Machiavelli was sure to make special notes of these Foot Soldiers.

    What really surprises me is the unbelievably large sums of money being “donated” to these “HIV deniers” like Kalichman, Duesberg, and of course… Baker.

    Can we guess who they will probably vote for on November 18th? That is if Trump stays out of someone’s gun sight.

    PharmaSluts and Drug Whores are terms I have not seen, and most likely for good reason, they do not meet the corpus delicti. There were sooo many freakin links in this trashy waste of my time, I eventually left it for other trash – thanks for that.


    • Making and maintaining defamatory websites about Dr. Murtagh.
    • Spoofing Dr. Murtagh’s email with fake accounts, including one purported to be me.
    • Pinging Dr. Murtagh’s cell phone.
    • Stalking Dr. Murtagh’s girlfriend in Atlanta.
    • Serving fraudulent subpoenas.
    This honestly sounds like a cult – Scientology-like, but lacking the Tax-Free-Exemption Scientology enjoys.

    Farber, Kalichman, Duesberg, and of course… Baker, through the help of Billionaire backing, have obviously conspired to create this Pandemic and one can only hope there is justice on the side of fact and truth.

    Thanks for the links in your post.

    Re: Bully has Billionaire Backer

    J Todd DeShong, thanks for showing up for class... :) That answers all my question. All being, "Baker's "Bankruptcy" is an abuse, and it will get thrown out, right?
    It answered the one big thing that was getting to me - that Baker was going to get away with it. Nevertheless, the Rooster never crows until dawn, so all I am doing is hoping for the best in your case.

    Cheers...

    I wanted to reply to the both of you...

    Nevertheless, is the Fifth Circuit a higher court? and does filing for bankruptcy, while pleading a case, and then seeing the uncomfortable outcome negate the chances for that bankruptcy's success? and... was it a Chapter 11 or 9 Bankruptcy? and, Jeffrey DeShong should be able to receive property of assessed equal value or something like that right? and if it's Chpt 11, he (Jeffrey DeShong) should be able to recover after the lawyers figure out what his "stuff" is worth, right?

    I have a shitload of more questions, but no time now...

    Cheers :)

  • On the post: Illinois Police Department Pulls Plug On Body Cameras Because Accountability Is 'A Bit Burdensome'

    Monday ( profile ), 29 Apr, 2016 @ 01:49pm

    Re: BWC Nightmare

    Sure, it might seem a few individuals are "Anti-Police", but everyone also knows - EVERYONE - that there are alot of really great Cops.

    It's just that I think your comment is short-sighted in that does the cost really qualify, or quantify the safety that Body Cameras bring to bear, on both sides of this debate. Police are not auto manufacturers, and the cost shouldn't have to come down to the price of an ignition switch that works and the cost of a life, or the trust of the Citizenry.

    Ninety-nine times out of one-hundred, BWC's prove indispensable when the Police have failed in doing what is in their job description - period. God forbid, should any member reading this loses a close, or closest loved one and it is because of questionable police conduct; they WILL!!! want some "fucking" answers - while everybody around them hoping they don't have a weapon license, while at the same time, also hoping the answers given, are enough to satiate any blood lust or revenge. It is answers they can be content with.

    Do I "hate" the police? A few of them... yeah, I do. It is because those few turned into bullies, played it a little loose, and when the cuffs came off, their thirty hours of self-defense training was what I was doing by a Wednesday afternoon - every week, for years. Still, no evidence of my assault was to be had, just theirs', and I got the door prize. So, yes, visions can and do become skewed.

    Nevertheless, it does not justify cancelling a program that - I believe the number was 4,400, Policing Agencies use, and use with varying degrees of success. ADAPT. Simple as that. Hold weekly bake sales; get the money! Don't lay down a soliloquy on the "incredible" cost of running cloud storage, and new USBs, or training for a job that almost everyone handles, quite well, every day on their iPhone, or Samsung - a Monkey can operate a cell phone... I said almost everyone, because some of us don't wanna screw Megan Fox and aren't obsessed with our presence and number of followers or likes on the internet.

    And then, you start l̶e̶c̶t̶u̶r̶i̶n̶g̶ talking of processes that are meant to weed the bad from good, and that obviously does not work a hundred percent of the time. And, it does not play if it happens to be a veteran Cop who needs to be looked at for their actions; this is a reality that has happened just like that. Body cameras are a tool, just like the .45 S&W, nothing more - if they don't want that badge of courage becoming a (de)merit badge, they'll wear their damn cameras. A Society only turns against something when that something has failed them so many times, that there is no other course of action except to become hostile to that something. Also, don't make the impressions of a few thousand people, your universal definition of society - they're not even a demographic.

    As for if it isn't on Camera, it will always be your words against mine, and you're the Professional here, right?
