Obama admitted that his theory - that after the 2012 election, the Republican "fever" would break, and they'd decide to co-sign some of his agenda - was wrong. "My thinking was when we beat them in 2012 that might break the fever, and it's not quite broken yet," Obama said, according to the White House pool report. This is because of a certain corpulent radio host. "I genuinely believe there are Republicans out there who would like to work with us but they're fearful of their base and they're concerned about what Rush Limbaugh might say about them. And as a consequence we get the kind of gridlock that makes people cynical about government." In June 2012, Obama had predicted that being a lame duck would actually be a perk. He told donors : "I believe that if we're successful in this election, when we're successful in this election, that the fever may break, because there's a tradition in the Republican Party of more common sense than that,... My hope, my expectation, is that after the election, now that it turns out that the goal of beating Obama doesn't make much sense because I'm not running again, that we can start getting some cooperation again." And if Republicans refuse to cooperate? Well, unlike the president, they do face reelection. Obama suggested he would crush them in the midterms. "If there are folks who are more interested in winning elections than they are thinking about the next generation then I want to make sure there are consequences to that." Obama left Weinstein's home for another DNC fundraiser at the home of Alexandra Stanton in Manhattan's Tribeca neighborhood, before a DCCC/DSCC event at the Waldorf Astoria, capping a busy day in which he addressed the dueling scandals about the IRS and Benghazi - and maybe even cried . http://www.theatlanticwire.com/politics/2013/05/obama-tells-harvey-weinstein-justin-timberlake-blame-rush-limbaugh/65187/ http://www.liveleak.com/view?i=984_1368533125 Detroit Iron Obama Tells Harvey Weinstein, Justin Timberlake to Blame Rush Limbaugh obama Tue, 12 Mar 2013 13:03:32 -0400 http://www.liveleak.com/view?i=c2d_1363107569 whiterabbit1 Amateur video footage of a New York-based gay man's altercation with a passerby who called him a "faggot" is making the blogosphere rounds. http://www.liveleak.com/view?i=c2d_1363107569 whiterabbit1 New York Gay Man's Argument With Passerby Who Called Him 'Faggot' Gets Physical LGBT, Civil Rights, New York, LGBT, Gay Rights, Video, Anti-Gay, Anti-Gay Discrimination, Anti-Gay Hate Crimes, Anti-Gay Slurs, Anti-Gay Violence, Astoria, Astoria New York, Faggot, Homophobia, New York News Fri, 19 Apr 2013 14:56:54 -0400 http://www.liveleak.com/view?i=c6f_1366397691 hudsonhicks New York City police are investigating an attack by a group of high schools girls on two eighth graders that was filmed by other teens. The video was posted online. Queens City Councilman Peter Vallone Jr. said he learned of the video via Facebook . He said he was disturbed that other students stood by and encouraged the attacks, filmed them and did nothing to stop them. The incident occurred on Friday in an Astoria, Queens, park. One of the victims, Samantha Gonzalez, told reporters that seven to 10 girls grabbed her, pulled her hair and hit her. The video also shows the girls being kicked and pushed. Her mother, Nina Kunicki, said Samantha suffered a fractured nose and two bruises on each eye. There have been no arrests. http://www.liveleak.com/view?i=c6f_1366397691 hudsonhicks Queens video shows high school girls beating up eighth-graders negro, queens, animals, primitive, usa Fri, 19 Apr 2013 12:12:44 -0400 http://www.liveleak.com/view?i=942_1366387712 Hitler_Is_Amazing (CNN) -- The five-minute video opens with a man cruising along in his car, cracking open a bottle of what appears to be Beck's beer and taking a swig. "We all know drinking and driving is against the law. You're not supposed to do that. But they didn't say anything about driving and then drinking," the man says to the camera. "You just have to be learned enough to understand the symbols of drunkenness." The man, Richard Godbehere, posted the clip in February under the title "Let's Go Driving, Drinking!" to LiveLeak, a video-sharing site where users can vote on and donate to videos they like. Even so, he appeared surprised when police showed up at his house in Kapa'a, Hawaii, to arrest him on charges of consuming alcohol while operating a vehicle and driving without a license. "It's unbelievable," Godbehere told CNN. He says the video was meant as a parody. "There was no beer in that bottle." Godbehere is due in court in June, and police in Kaua'i told CNN the case will come down to whether a judge or jury believes him. "Our traffic laws are in place for a reason, and Mr. Godbehere's blatant disregard for those laws is the type of behavior that won't be tolerated," said Kaua'i Police Chief Darryl Perry in a statement. Social networks offer platforms for us to share everything on the Internet, from our relationship statuses to our political leanings and photos of our pets and children. But some people are discovering that what they share on Facebook, Twitter and other platforms constitutes evidence that can be used against them in a court of law. Related: When evidence of sex assault goes viral One expert told CNN that anything posted online is material the government can use as evidence to arrest and charge a person. "In criminal cases, almost all evidence is discoverable and police can obtain the evidence," said Bradley Shear, a Washington-area lawyer specializing in social media law. "It's just a matter of what hoops they have to jump through." The government can subpoena deleted content from social media companies, as a judge did from Twitter for a case involving an Occupy New York protester in July 2012. But sometimes, law enforcement doesn't have to jump through any hoops to collect potentially incriminating evidence -- they just have to click around online. "It's like that old saying," said professor Susan Rozelle, who teaches evidence and criminal law at Stetson University in Deland, Florida. "Don't put anything on your Facebook page you wouldn't tell your mother, or the local police department." Steubenville The most high-profile recent example of this was in Steubenville, Ohio, where social media played a role in the case of two football players who were found guilty last month of raping a drunken 16-year-old girl. The girl didn't remember much of what happened when Trent Mays, 17, and Ma'lik Richmond, 16, sexually assaulted her at a party in August of 2012. Her family and law enforcement learned of the assault after cell phone pictures and videos, taken by partygoers, popped up on Facebook and other sites. One key piece of evidence was an Instagram photo of the two boys carrying the girl out of a house. Mays, who shared photos of the girl naked and passed out, was also found guilty of disseminating a nude photo of a minor. The case caught fire on both conventional media and social mediaafter a crime blogger and former Steubenville resident, Alexandria Goddard, uncovered some of photos, videos and messages posted online about the incident and accused the town of giving the boys preferential treatment because they played on the football team. Police denied the claim. Just last month, two teenage girls were arrested and charged with intimidating a witness after police said they made threats against the victim on Twitter. Prosecutors have said they are considering additional charges against witnesses who refused to speak up. A grand jury will meet April 30 to hear evidence. '... to whoever's vehicle i hit i am sorry' Early on the morning of January 1 of this year, police in Astoria, Oregon, responded to a call about a hit-and-run on a residential street. There they found two cars had been sideswiped by an unknown driver, leaving behind a bumper cover and pieces of a taillight. Later that day, an officer received a private Facebook message alerting her to a Facebook status update recently posted by Astoria resident Jacob Cox-Brown, 18. It read, "Drivin drunk... classsic ;) but to whoever's vehicle i hit i am sorry. :P" Jacob Cox-Brown's mug shot from the Astoria, Oregon, police. Officers went to Cox-Brown's home and arrested him after finding a damaged vehicle missing pieces that matched those left behind at the crime scene. In an interview with ABC affiliate KATU-TV, the owner of one of the damaged vehicles said what everyone watching the case was probably thinking: "Why would you post that? He basically just turned himself in." Cox-Brown told KATU that his Facebook status update was "a big joke" and that he sideswiped the cars because of icy conditions. He is due in court April 22. Shear, the social media law expert, said he would never allow a client to post anything like that online. But he argued that Cox-Brown's post alone would not be enough for a DUI conviction. Prosecutors would need additional evidence, such as a blood-alcohol-level report, he said. "You want to focus on charging someone with something you can prove in the court of law," he said. That may explain why police said Cox-Brown is charged not with driving under the influence but with two counts of "failing to perform the duties of a driver." The Montreal Metro Drinking Marathon A group of young partiers in Montreal gave authorities plenty of online evidence last month after a binge-drinking journey through the city's subways. The group participated in what they called the Montreal Metro Drinking Marathon, with plans to drink a beer at every station on the 30-stop Orange line. They made it to 18 stations before losing focus, according to a post about it on Mook-life.com, a blog about youth culture in Montreal. "I guess alcohol got the best of us and we completely forgot what was going on at one point but in my opinion that makes us all winners!" said the March 25 post, which has since been taken down. The group also posted photos, some with blurred faces, of members chugging beers on the trains and urinating at the subway stations -- both violations of city ordinances. News sites republished some of the photos, and authorities took notice. Montreal police are now investigating the incidents and have asked for help in identifying the participants. A lawyer representing some of the partiers involved is negotiating with investigators, Montreal police said. Canada and the United States have similar protections against suspects incriminating themselves while in custody, but voluntary gloating or confessions online are free game for law enforcement, legal experts said. "What the Fifth Amendment protects against is compulsory confessions," Rozelle said. "No one compelled them to take photos of themselves drinking and peeing." "The problem is that people don't realize that you can't take it back," added Shear. "It's almost impossible to unpost something." When posting a photo is a crime It's one thing to be arrested for posting a photo that shows you breaking the law. It's another to be arrested for posting a photo of someone else's handiwork. In another case of social media consequences in Montreal, a woman was arrested earlier this month after she posted a photo on Instagram of graffiti she spotted on a city wall that depicted a high-ranking Montreal police officer with a bullet hole in his head. Jennifer Pawluck, 20, was accused of criminal harassment and intimidation, according to Montreal police. "I think the person behind the artwork should be in my place ... all I did was take a photo," she told the Canadian Broadcasting Corporation. Pawluck has not been formally charged but is scheduled to appear in court on May 24. A Montreal police spokesperson said there's more behind her arrest than just the posting of the photo, but declined to offer further details. Legal experts say photos and videos, whether posted publicly online or obtained in a more discreet manner by the police, have to meet the same criteria: They must be authenticated, meaning the prosecutors must prove the images are what they seem and have not been altered or staged. And they can't be shown out of context. "You can't just show a snippet that makes it seem worse than it is," said Rozelle, the Stetson University professor. When the accused admit to posting the materials themselves, authentication isn't as much of a question. But in the cases of Godbehere, in Hawaii, and Cox-Brown, in Oregon, the incriminating posts put them in the awkward position of having to disavow their own words, experts say. Either way, Rozelle says, criminals' trumpeting their crimes is nothing new. "People have always said foolish things," Rozelle said, "but now they have the ability to say it louder and to more people." http://www.cnn.com/2013/04/18/tech/social-media/online-oversharing-arrests/index.html?hpt=hp_c3 http://www.liveleak.com/view?i=942_1366387712 Hitler_Is_Amazing When oversharing online can get you arrested Live leaker, dummy, stupid, hammer head, felon Fri, 19 Apr 2013 05:39:23 -0400 http://www.liveleak.com/view?i=3d7_1366364090 AllahSnakkkbar Original Liveleak video: http://item.liveleak.com/2/view?i=f2c_1361307771 http://www.cnn.com/2013/04/18/tech/social-media/online-oversharing-arrests/index.html?hpt=us_c2 (CNN) -- The five-minute video opens with a man cruising along in his car, cracking open a bottle of what appears to be Beck's beer and taking a swig.
