      <description>I'm not racist, hateful, or prejudice towards any religion or a person's decision of lack thereof.  I believe everyone is entitled to their own beliefs.  

However, when one belief begins to disregard the laws of the country and/or city that it's residing within, and making life difficult for the other's living among them, I believe the people in charge of the city's law enforcement needs to take a stand.

Unfortunately &quot;political correctness&quot; has run amuck on our generation's watch and everyone is so damn afraid of being outed as some sort of bigot for taking a stand for what is right for everyone, and not just one particular group of people.</description>

      <description>Sneaky bastard

AN illegal immigrant climbs out of a tanker - before escaping into the countryside.

The hoodie-wearing man - caked in white powder - emerged as the truck was stuck in a motorway jam.

He and three other men were spotted fleeing the German-plated vehicle on the M26 in Kent shortly after it arrived through the Channel Tunnel.

A witness said: &quot;The driver didn't know they were in the back. But they stood out, covered in that powder.&quot;

May 17th, 2013 by  Thomas More Society 
  Thomas More Society Calls Upon IRS Investigators to Question California Office and to Extend Investigation Back to 2009  

  Contact: Tom Ciesielka, 312-422-1333,  tc@tcpr.net 

(May 17, 2013 - Chicago)  Today, the Thomas More Society offered over 150 pages of analysis and evidence to the House Ways and Means Committee about repeated IRS harassment of pro-life organizations. At the request of Congressman Aaron Schock (R-IL), Thomas More Society President Thomas Brejcha, Executive Director Peter Breen, and Special Counsel Sally Wagenmaker, prepared the legal memorandum with solid evidence of IRS harassment of pro-life organizations dating back to 2009.

The memo details the history of IRS misconduct in the cases of three organizations represented by the Thomas More Society. The abuse dates back further than the now publicized 2010 complaints and extends beyond the IRS's recently exposed Cincinnati office to also include the tax agency's California operations in the charges of blatant bias.

The IRS office in El Monte, California, began harassing Christian Voices for Life of Fort Bend County, Texas in 2011. In a series of questions penned by Exempt Organization Specialist Tyrone Thomas from the California office, the IRS asked a series of unwarranted questions ordering Christian Voices for Life without any foundation, to explain its content, message, and prayers as if they were engaging in highly offensive or criminal behavior.

Coalition for Life of Iowa found itself in the IRS's crosshairs when the group applied for tax exempt status in October 2008. Nearly ten months of interrogation about the group's opposition to Planned Parenthood included a demand by a Ms. Richards from the IRS' Cincinnati office unlawfully insisted that all board members sign a sworn declaration promising not to picket/protest Planned Parenthood. Further questioning by the IRS requested detailed information about the content of the group's prayer meetings, educational seminars, and signs their members hold outside Planned Parenthood.

In yet a third matter, an IRS agent in their Chicago office  repeatedly harassed Daniel and Angela Michael of Small Victories, a pro-life organization, with an intrusive investigation, calling the leaders every 2-3 weeks over the course of 2011, beginning in January of that year. The IRS officially closed its investigation in January 2012, having found no illegal activities.

Thomas More Society attorneys are available for interviews. Contact Tom Ciesielka at 312-422-1333 or  tc@tcpr.net .

      <title>Arrest is presumed to be false if ...</title>
      <pubDate>Fri, 17 May 2013 16:37:36 -0400</pubDate>
      <link>http://www.liveleak.com/view?i=82f_1368822899</link>
      <dc:creator>10fold</dc:creator>
      <description>MEMORANDUM OF POINTS AND AUTHORITIES 

 1.  Arrest is presumed to be false;  officer has the burden of proof 

 The only thing the plaintiff needs to plead and to prove if alleging  false arrest, is either (1) that the defendant made an arrest or imprisonment, or (2) that the defendant affirmatively instigated, encouraged, incited, or caused the arrest or imprisonment.    Burlington v. Josephson , 153 Fed.2d 372,276 (1946).

&quot; When the plaintiff has shown that he was arrested, imprisoned or restrained of his liberty by the defendant,  &quot; the law presumes it to be unlawful .&quot;   People v. McGrew , 20 Pac. 92 (1888);  Knight v. Baker , 133 P. 544(1926).

&quot; The burden is upon the defendant to show that the arrest was by authority of law. &quot;  McAleer v. Good , 65 Atl. 934, 935 (1907);   Mackie v. Ambassador , 11 P.2d 6 (1932).

&quot; Any arrest made without a warrant, if challenged by the defendant, is presumptively invalid ...the burden is upon the state&quot; to justify it as authorized by statute, and as not violative of constitutional provisions.  State v. Mastrian , 171 N.W.2d 695 (1969);  Butler v. State , 212 So.2d 577 (Miss 1968)

&quot; As in the case of illegal arrests, the officer ... must keep within the law at his peril .&quot;   Thiede v. Scandia , 217 Minn. 231, 14 N.W.2d 400 (1944).

 2.  Must show warrant upon request 

&quot; He must show it to the accused, if requested to do so .&quot;   Smith v. State , 208 S.2d 747 (Miss., 1968).

&quot; If demanded, he must produce the warrant and read it to the accused, that he may know by what authority and for what cause he is deprived of his liberty .&quot;  S tate v. Shaw , 89 S.E. 322 (1916).

&quot; An accused person, if he demands it, is entitled to have the warrant for his arrest shown to him at the time of arrest .&quot; 42 L.R.A. 682, 51 L.R.A. 211,  Crosswhite v. Barnes , 124 S.E. 242, 245 (1924).

&quot; A special deputy is bound to show his warrant if requested to do so, and if he omit, the party against whom the warrant issues may resist an arrest, and the warrant under such circumstances is no protection against an action for an assault, battery and false imprisonment .&quot;   Frost v. Thomas , 24 Wendell's Rep. (N.Y.) 418, 419 (1840).

&quot; It is doubtless the duty of an officer who executes a warrant of arrest to state the nature and substance of the process which gives him the authority he professes to exercise, and, if it is demanded, to exhibit his warrant, that the party arrested may have no excuse for resistance .&quot;   Shovlon v. Com. , 106 Pa. 369, 5 Am. Crim. Rep. 41 (1884)

&quot; It was the duty of an officer who attempts to make an arrest to exhibit the warrant if he has one .&quot;   Jones v. State , 114 Ga. 79, 39 S.E. 861 (1901)

 

 3.  Warrant must be valid 

 A constable justifying an imprisonment under a warrant must show that the warrant on its face is legal, and that the magistrate had jurisdiction of the subject-matter . 51 L.R.A. 197,  Poulk v. Slocum , 3 Blackfords (Ind). 421.   (Meaning, you should also demand a copy of the affidavit giving the judge probable cause to issue the warrant.  All warrants must issue upon submission of an affidavit of probable cause.) 

&quot; A warrant is regarded as insufficient and thus void if, on its face, it fails to state facts sufficient to constitute a crime .&quot;   Wharton's Crim. Proc. , 12th Ed., vol. 1, p. 152 (1974).

 4.  No rubber-stamp &quot;signature&quot; 

&quot; The United States Supreme Court ... stressed the need for 'individualized review' to avoid the issuance of 'rubber stamp' warrants .&quot;   State v. Paulick , 277 Minn. 140, 151 N.W.2d 596 (1967).

 5. False arrest is assault and battery 

&quot; An illegal arrest is an assault and battery.  The person so attempted to be restrained of his liberty has the same right, and only the same right, to use force in defending himself as he would have in repelling any other assault and battery .&quot;   State v. Robinson , 72 Atl.2d 262 (1950).

&quot; An arrest without warrant is a trespass, an unlawful assault upon the person ... where one is about to be unlawfully deprived of his liberty he may resist the aggressions of the offender, whether of a private citizen or a public officer, to the extent of taking the life of the assailant, if that be necessary to preserve his own life, or prevent infliction upon him of some great bodily harm .&quot;   State v. Gum , 69 S.E. 464 (1910).

&quot; Every person has the right to resist an unlawful arrest ... and, in preventing such illegal restraint of his liberty, he may use such force as may be necessary .&quot;   Columbus v. Holmes , 152 N.E.2d 306 (1958).

 6. No handcuffs (sorry, OSHA) 

 &quot;But a constable cannot justify handcuffing a prisoner unless he has attempted to escape, or unless it be necessary in order to prevent his doing so.&quot;   51 L.R.A. 216.

&quot; The handcuffing was utterly unlawful.&quot;    Osborn v. Veitch  1 Foster &amp;amp; Fin Eng Rep 317.

 7. Go immediately to a magistrate (no photographs, no fingerprinting) 

 &quot;The one arresting has &quot;a duty to immediately seek a magistrate,&quot; and failure to do so &quot;makes a case of false imprisonment .&quot;  Heath v. Boyd , 175 S.W.2d. 217 (1943);  Brock v. Stimson , 108 Mass. 520 (1871).

&quot; To detain the person arrested in custody for any purpose other than that of taking him before a magistrate is illegal .&quot;   Kominsky v. Durand , 12 Atl.2d. 654 (1940).

&quot; Any undue delay is unlawful and wrongful, and renders the officer himself and all persons aiding and abetting therein wrongdoers from the beginning .&quot;   Ulvestad v. Dolphin , 278 Pac. 684 (1929).

&quot; The taking of the plaintiff's picture before conviction was an illegal act .&quot;  Hawkins v. Kuhne , 137 NY Supp 1090, 153 App Div 216 (1912).

&quot; The power to arrest does not confer upon the arresting officer the power to detain a prisoner for other purposes .&quot;   Geldon v. Finnegan , 252 N.W. 372 (1934).

&quot; Compulsory fingerprinting before conviction is an unlawful encroachment...  involves prohibited compulsory self-incrimination .&quot;   People v. Helvern , 215 N.Y. Supp. 417 (1926)

 Summary 

A warrant must be issued and be signed (no rubber stamp) by a judge who has jurisdiction;

must state the facts showing jurisdiction;

must be based upon probable cause;

must name the offense committed;

must contain an affidavit (under oath) by the accuser, stating FIRST HAND facts constituting a crime;

must name the party to be arrested, or describe him sufficiently to identify him;

must offer the warrant and the affidavit for inspection upon request;

No handcuffs;

must take me immediately before a magistrate, and hold me for no other purpose (no photographs, no fingerprinting);

You are responsible for everything that happens to me even if you relinquish custody to an assign;

Unlawful arrest is assault, battery &amp;amp; trespass;

There is no immunity in a false arrest case;

Good faith is not a defense to sustain false arrest.

Lastly . . . If the warrant states as cause to issue, a mere civil/statutory infraction not rising to the level of a capital crime . . . the officer must produce title to your biological property/body, before said officer can make the arrest and take possession of the biological property.  You do not by accommodation, accept the offer of arrest for any statutory infraction unless the statute defines a capital crime and probable cause exists.  

NOTE:

The arresting officer that this information has been presented to, has both a civil and legal duty to become informed with the material incorporated herein before an arrest is determined to have cause to be made.

      <title>What kind of presidential candidate can we expect from Republicans in 2016?</title>

      <description>2011 was a banner year in stupidity, craziness, and fright from the  Republican Party. With seven candidates vying to be more conservative than each  other, the atmosphere was perfect for insanity. Throughout the year, each  candidate made comments that proved just how out of touch, ignorant, and  dangerous the right wing has truly become. It's hard to choose which quotes to  list but here are just 25, brought to you by Michele Bachmann, Mitt Romney,  Herman Cain, Ron Paul, Rick Santorum, Rick Perry, and Newt Gingrich.

&quot;They can get married. They can marry a man if they're a woman. Or they  can marry a woman if they're a man.&quot;
~Michele Bachmann, on whether or not  homosexuals can get married.

&quot;The more toppings a man has on his pizza, I believe the more manly he is. A  manly man don't want it piled high with vegetables! He would call that a sissy  pizza.&quot;
~Herman Cain, on manliness. Too bad House Republicans declared pizza  a vegetable, and therefore declared Cain, a sissy.

&quot;Our nation needs to stop doing for people what they can and should do for  themselves. Self reliance means, if anyone will not work, neither should he  eat.&quot;
~Michele Bachmann, saying the unemployed should starve.

&quot;Our Founding Fathers never meant for Washington, D.C. to be the fount of all  wisdom. As a matter of fact they were very much afraid if that because they'd  just had this experience with this far-away government that had centralized  thought process and planning and what have you, and then it was actually the  reason that we fought the revolution in the 16th century was to get away from  that kind of onerous crown if you will.&quot;
~Rick Perry, incorrectly stating  that the American Revolution occurred during the 1500s. It actually occurred in  the 1770s and ended in 1781.


&quot;One of the things I will talk about, that no president has talked about  before, is I think the dangers of contraception in this country. It's not okay.  It's a license to do things in a sexual realm that is counter to how things are  supposed to be.   is supposed to be within marriage. It's supposed to be for  purposes that are yes, conjugal...but also procreative. That's the perfect way  that a sexual union should happen...This is special and it needs to be seen as  special.&quot;
~Rick Santorum, opposing contraception and frighteningly suggesting  that he would love to make pre-marital sex illegal.

&quot;There's no question at times of my life, partially driven by how passionately I  felt about this country, that I worked far too hard and things happened in my  life that were not appropriate.&quot;
~Newt Gingrich, blaming his many affairs on  his patriotism.</description>

      <title>Sen. Warren demands to know why criminal bankers aren't being locked up</title>
      <pubDate>Fri, 17 May 2013 13:53:01 -0400</pubDate>

      <description>In a letter (PDF) sent to Federal Reserve Chairman Ben Bernanke, Attorney General Eric Holder and SEC Chair Mary Jo White on Tuesday, Sen. Elizabeth Warren (D-MA) demanded to know why the government keeps accepting financial settlements from criminal bankers when they could instead be taken to trial, convicted and locked up.

In six short paragraphs, Warren requested that each institution turn over copies of any internal research &quot;on the trade-offs to the public&quot; between letting big financial firms pay a fine and walk &quot;without admission of guilt&quot; versus moving forward with full-scale prosecutions.

The letter was sent as a follow-up to a similar question she asked of the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency (OCC) on Feb. 14. Warren noted that the OCC replied last week denying the existence of any such research. In her letter sent Tuesday, she went on to add:

 ...I believe very strongly that if a regulator reveals itself to be unwilling to take large financial institutions all the way to trial - either because it is too timid or because it lacks resources - the regulator has a lot less leverage in settlement negotiations and will be forced to settle on terms that are much more favorable to the wrongdoer. 

 The consequence can be insufficient compensation to those who are harmed by illegal activity and inadequate deterrence of future violations. If large financial institutions can break the law and accumulate millions in profits and, if they get caught, settle by paying out of those profits, they do not have much incentive to follow the law. 

There's been a rash of mega-settlements between the government and the nation's largest banks in recent years over allegations of foreclosing on people without just cause, knowingly making bad loans and reselling the debt, making false statements to rob from retired pensioners, laundering money for drug cartels, repressive regimes and terrorists, and agreeing to settlements and then ignoring them, to name a few.

&quot;The problem is the banks have overwhelming confidence that law enforcement is not taking this seriously,&quot; New York Attorney General Eric T. Schneiderman said last Monday, appearing on MSNBC. &quot;They have overwhelming confidence that whatever the rules are, they won't be followed up on.&quot;

Five years on from a financial crisis that nearly froze the flow of credit in the United States and sparked a multi-trillion dollar bailing-out of the global financial industry, few American bankers and big finance executives have faced criminal charges.

There is, however, one notable exception: Ponzi-schemer Bernard Madoff, who defrauded mainly wealthy clients to the tune of $64.8 billion. He said from jail in 2011 that many of his former colleagues on Wall Street engage in criminal insider trading on a regular basis, much like he did.

&quot;It's unbelievable, Goldman ... no one has any criminal convictions,&quot; Madoff told New York Magazine earlier that year. &quot;The whole new regulatory reform is a joke. The whole government is a Ponzi scheme.&quot;

 Audit: Fed gave $16 trillion in emergency loans 

Of the $16.1 trillion loaned out, $3.08 trillion went to financial institutions in the U.K., Germany, Switzerland, France and Belgium, the Government Accountability Office's (GAO) analysis shows.

Additionally, asset swap arrangements were opened with banks in the U.K., Canada, Brazil, Japan, South Korea, Norway, Mexico, Singapore and Switzerland. Twelve of those arrangements are still ongoing, having been extended through August 2012.

Out of all borrowers, Citigroup received the most financial assistance from the Fed, at $2.5 trillion. Morgan Stanley came in second with $2.04 trillion, followed by Merill Lynch at $1.9 trillion and Bank of America at $1.3 trillion.
