FBI to Make Announcement on Tylenol Murders

“Just over 30 years ago, 7 people died after ingesting cyanide lasted capsules from within Tylenol Bottles manufactured by Johnson and Johnson. The narrative put forth by the FBI and Johnson and Johnson through the news media at the time was described as a lone madman traveled from store to store placing the cyanide in the bottles. But is that what really happened? For the last 2 years, I have been reporting on the investigation and research of Scott Bartz. Bartz is a former Johnson and Johnson employee who claims that the narrative put forth by his employer and the FBI is entirely FALSE.”

Who Wants Marijuana To Remain Illegal?

google-search-header2

“Police unions, private prison corporations, alcohol and beer companies, pharmaceutical companies, and prison guard unions are said to be in the top five in terms of lobbying and paying lawmakers to keep marijuana illegal. Hey, this is DEMOCRACY at work. This is the best system on earth, right? This is the system the U.S. government tells us it wants for Libya, Syria, Iraq, Afghanistan, etc.  If some foreign government through its politics forbids women from walking around without burkas on, that is a sign of its tyranny, U.S. officials tell us. But if the existing U.S. system forbids someone from using marijuana or some other drug, this is not infringing rights and it’s not oppressive.”

Pressure Mounts for Marijuana Reform in Bermuda

“For Americans, mention ‘Bermuda’ and ‘marijuana’ and the first thing that comes to mind is a vision of vacationing cruise ship passengers arrested and fined in large amounts for carrying small quantities of the substance, like this Oakland medical marijuana patient last month or these two unfortunate tourists in April. But that could be about to change.  A mid-month meeting organized by the governing One Bermuda Alliance’s youth wing, the Future Bermuda Alliance, to discuss marijuana reform drew nearly a hundred residents and supporters, including two government ministers, both of whom expressed general support for the notion.”

Health Canada Approves Heroin Maintenance

“Last Friday, Health Canada used some creative rule-reading to approve a program that would provide prescription heroin to a small number of hard-core users, and the Conservative health minister isn’t happy. But doctors, advocates, and the users themselves are quite pleased — and once again, Canada stays on the cutting edge when it comes to dealing smartly with heroin use.  Health Canada approved access to prescription heroin for at least 15 people who are completing their participation in Vancouver’s Study to Assess Long-term Opioid Dependence (SALOME), which is testing whether prescribing heroin was more effective than prescribing methadone.”

Government’s definition of ‘terrorist’ encompasses practically everyone

“According to the US State Department, ‘no one definition of terrorism has gained universal acceptance’ within our government. And what constitutes a terrorist is rather expansive, as Senator Rand Paul (R-Kentucky) explains. Even former White House Chief of Staff Rham Emanuel meets the criteria. Perianne Boring has more.”

New Orleans Police Department To Wear Cameras

“The ‘body-worn cameras’ are not mandated under a federal consent decree governing NOPD reforms that Mayor Mitch Landrieu signed last year with U.S. Attorney General Eric Holder.  Serpas said the body cameras are a major step that other police agencies across the country have embraced, both to protect the public and to forestall false complaints against officers. ‘Imagine a day in the city of New Orleans, in the not too distant future, where every single time we pull over a car, we ask somebody who they are or what they’re doing, that that entire incident is audiotaped and videotaped,’ Serpas said. ‘We’re very excited about it. It’s coming.'”

Spy Car Protects Against Unscrupulous Cops [2012]

“After a couple of negative interactions with what he calls “unscrupulous cops”, Rick took the initiative to outfit his ride with some cutting-edge technology.  And he founded Veterans Against Police Abuse to encourage others to do the same – use technology to create a transparent record of interactions. That, he says, is the surest way to bring-about a safer society.  To learn more about the technology in Rick’s ride, check out this page on his site, which includes links to many of the devices housed in his car.”

Marijuana Legalization Activists Target States For 2014

“Alaska and Oregon may become the next states to legalize marijuana for recreational use, as early as next year some proponents say.  But the big battle over marijuana prohibition will come in 2016 with the next presidential election. Although a slim majority of Americans support legalization, younger voters may vote for change in higher numbers than older generations, Mason Tvert, a spokesman for the Marijuana Policy Project, says. That group, and others, plan to target state legislators in five states, including Rhode Island and Hawaii, to legalize the drug by 2017.  UN drug control officials remain alarmed by challenges to marijuana prohibition in America, Germany, and Uruguay.”

Federal court rules Facebook ‘Likes’ are protected by First Amendment

“Hitting the ‘Like’ button on Facebook is an element of free speech protected by the U.S. constitution, a federal court ruled Wednesday, in a case closely watched by employment lawyers.  The U.S. Court of Appeals based in Richmond, Virginia, made the judgment in the case of a Virginia sheriff’s department worker who claimed he was fired for exercising his free speech rights — in this case ‘liking’ a political opponent of his boss.  ‘His conduct qualifies as speech,’ the court said in a 81-page decision that sent the case back to a lower court for review of those issues.”

Ex-Army sergeants accused of working as drug cartel’s killers-for-hire

“A 48-year-old former U.S. Army sergeant was accused of being the ringleader of a five-man squad that acted as a hit squad for drug traffickers, CNN reported on Friday. Authorities accused Hunter of recruiting his team over the course of the past year and promising them ‘tons of cocaine and millions of dollars’ for their involvement, and turned over their resumes to undercover agents from the Drug Enforcement Agency, posing as members of a Colombian drug cartel. Hunter also allegedly boasted about doing multiple ‘bonus jobs,’ as contract killings are often referred to, and expressed interest in doing as many of them as possible. Hunter was in the Army from 1983 to 2004.”
