Georgia rushes to complete executions before lethal drug supply runs out

Posted on by

“Georgia’s difficulties procuring execution drugs is a reflection of the gradual stranglehold that is being put on the US death penalty by authorities and companies around the world refusing to act as accomplices in the death sentence. The European Commission, following unilateral action by the UK, has imposed restrictions on the export of medicines to all US corrections departments.  One of the leading manufacturers of pentobarbital, the Danish firm Lundbeck, has introduced tough restrictions on the distribution of the drug to prevent it falling into the hands of US executioners.”

Undocumented immigrant to Obama: Stop tearing families apart with deportations

Posted on by

“The president’s latest proposal for immigration reforms includes a section that his administration said is focused on keeping families together.  But Obama’s refusal to curtail a policy that has led to a record 410,000 deportations during his first term has been cause for concern from immigrant rights groups.  ‘The border has been the most secure that it has ever been,’ Caballero said. ‘There’s more money and more troops there, and we need more?'”

Texas bans shooting immigrants from helicopters

Posted on by

“Officials in Texas announced on Thursday that State Troopers would no longer be allowed to open fire on suspects from helicopters after the recent killing of two immigrants.  While announcing the new policy, Texas Department of Public Safety Director Steve McCraw insisted that the ban on aerial shootings had nothing to do with the October 2012 death of two Guatemalan immigrants, who were gunned down by troopers in helicopter while they were hiding in the back of a speeding pickup truck near La Joya.”

Homeland Security Expands Electronics Seizure In “Constitution-Free” Zones

Posted on by

“The latest development in 4th Amendment violations is the scariest I’ve heard yet. The Department of the Fatherland has approved a policy which states in no uncertain terms that electronic devices can be seized without a warrant within 100 miles of the border. The kicker? The ‘border’, according to this policy, is any national barrier, political or physical. THIS INCLUDES BODIES OF WATER. So, that means that the United States has, in effect, ‘Constitution-free zones’ stretching 100 miles inland from every coast and 100 miles from our northern and southern borders.”

US Congress: ‘Fight Terrorism, Arm The Terrorists!’

Posted on by

thelrcblog-50016

“What, one might ask, is a US House member, who strongly and passionately supports the State of Israel doing introducing legislation that would result in a gusher of arms flowing to ‘the fastest-growing al Qaeda front in the world, attracting fighters from across the Islamic world.’? Does it make sense? What will Mr. Engel then propose when the bearded radicals finally overthrow the secular Assad and install Sharia rule in Syria? Does Mr. Engel support Sharia? Or will such a worse turn of events help ignite passions in the US for yet more military action in the Middle East?”

Drones patrolling U.S. borders spark controversy over privacy

Posted on by

“Intended to protect the borders from illegal crossings and the import of illegal drugs, ten drones flown by U.S. Customs and Border Protection have also sparked a controversy over privacy.  The plane are piloted remotely and their images are reviewed in real time by agents at Fort Huachuca in Sierra Vista, Arizona. The data is used to help direct agents on the ground or in a helicopter to make a bust.  ‘The fact we can turn the lights off, we are almost stealth,’ said director of Air Operations Dave Gasho.  And that, critics say, that is the problem.”

U.S. Government: The Truth Is Too Complicated and Dangerous to Disclose to the Public

Posted on by

“Secretive, unaccountable agencies are making life and death decisions which effect our most basic rights. They provide ‘secret evidence’ to courts which cannot be checked … and often withhold any such ‘evidence’ even from the judges. The government uses ‘secret evidence’ to spy on Americans, prosecute leaking or terrorism charges (even against U.S. soldiers) and even assassinate people.  All of this happened in Germany – as in America today – because the governments whipped up so much fear of attack by demonizing the enemy and declaring an open-ended war that people became complacent and stopped thinking for themselves.”

Imagining a Legal Basis for Obama’s Overseas Assassinations

Posted on by

thelrcblog-50016

“Thanks to someone who has reservations about Obama’s murders and leaked it, we have a copy of a secret legal opinion that is supposed to lay out the conditions under which such presidentially-directed murders are legal. This heretofore secret document imagines a legal basis for Obama’s overseas assassinations. Imagine is not quite the right word. It fantasizes such a basis. It makes it up by stringing together words that are supposed to make a plausible case. On inspection, however, this case collapses. It is rather like setting a wall on what is supposed to be concrete, but actually is pudding.”

NDAA Judge: Executive Branch “Known To Make Things Up”

Posted on by

thelrcblog-50016

“Mr. Constitutional Law Professor insisted that he signed the bill with ‘serious reservations.’ He also promised that he would never, ever use NDAA’s powers — he merely collects such prerogatives as you or I would books or china cups, so he can set them on a shelf and admire them.  And for a guy who so unenthusiastically signed the legislation in 2012 — and in 2013 as well — he has most vigorously defended it. Judge Katherine Forrest declined to cooperate with evisceration of the Constitution and suspended the NDAA. Ole Reluctant Signer immediately appealed to the Second Circuit to overturn her ruling.  That hearing took place yesterday in NYC.”

Disarm the People, Unleash the Drones: The Feinstein Agenda

Posted on by

“In a letter to Democratic Senator Diane Feinstein, who chairs the Senate Intelligence Committee, Ralph Nader and former Reagan administration official Bruce Fein point out that the drone-killings ‘combine prosecutor, judge, jury, and executioner in a single person’.  Rather than allowing critics of this program to testify in Brennan’s confirmation hearings, Senator Feinstein has limited testimony to the nominee himself.  The same Senator Feinstein, of course, is promoting severe restrictions on private firearms ownership. She sees nothing at all wrong with disarming the population while giving the president an unrestricted license to kill American citizens.”
