California police caught on camera fatally shooting man (VIDEO) Story/Video: http://bit.ly/1lReLhD
From another incident with the same police department:
“They killed Osman like a dog as he lay on the ground. Why are we to trust them investigating themselves? Why does it take so many bullets to the head to subdue a man who is already lying on the ground? Osman’s life had value. We want the truth,””
CNN retracts story that giant asteroid will destroy Earth on March 35, 2041
This is CNN… issuing a correction over a viral, user-posted report that a giant asteroid is on a collision course with Earth, and would wipe out life on the planet on March 35, 2041. Now “the most trusted name in news” has space egg on its face.
The report, called “Giant asteroid possibly on collision course with Earth,” was posted over the weekend by iReport user Marcus575. It quoted NASA’s Jet Propulsion Laboratory as saying a 10-mile wide object is on a trajectory that could bring a “high speed collision course with our fragile planet” from 51 million miles away or so. The date of the “potentially lethal encounter” was listed as “March 35, 2041.”
The post notes in multiple places it is not vetted for or by CNN.
Congress reaffirms indefinite detention of Americans under NDAA
The US House of Representatives approved an annual defense spending bill early Thursday after rejecting a proposed amendment that would have prevented the United States government from indefinitely detaining American citizens.
An amendment introduced in the House on Wednesday this week asked that Congress repeal a controversial provision placed in the National Defense Authorization Act of 2012 that has ever since provided the executive branch with the power to arrest and detain indefinitely any US citizen thought to be affiliated with Al-Qaeda or associated organizations.
All the African nations with a U.S. military presence
President Barack Obama made headlines Wednesday when he deployed 80 American troops to Chad. Their stated mission is to find the over 200 Nigerian girls kidnapped by Boko Haram last month, a crime that’s galvanized the international community.
But this is the U.S. military, and we’d be foolish to assume anything is so simple.

IN OTHER NEWS….
TWO Black Women Brandy Hamilton and Alexandria Randle were on their way home from the beach when they got pulled over by some Brazoria County police officers. The officer had forced a search because he “claims” he had ”suspicions” of Marijuana use. After searching the whole vehicle for weed he found NOTHING. "The male officer, his words verbatim were, ‘We’re gonna get familiar with your womanly parts,’" Brandy Hamilton said. He then appointed the a female officer to search them. The female officer searched them and stuck her finger inside the Women’s Vaginas without changing her glove or anything. NOTHING WAS FOUND. The Women are now pursuing a lawsuit against Texas Department of Public Safety.

Payments under a $400 billion contract signed Wednesday between Russian gas giant Gazprom and China’s CNPC will be made in US dollars, Russian Energy Minister Alexander Novak said on the sidelines of the St. Petersburg International Economic Forum on Friday.
The Russian Finance Ministry is currently working on the issue of transferring accounts of export goods into rubles because of Western sanctions against Russia over the situation in Ukraine and Crimea.
Many of Russia’s partners, including China, use the ruble in trade, but most export contracts are fulfilled in dollars.
Meanwhile, ExxonMobil and Shell announce their willingness to expand investment in Russia

Berkeley Copwatch Know Your Rights Training
May 24th
West Berkeley Library 1125 University Ave, Berkeley, California 94702
At our training, you can find out how to:
- Use your rights to watch and record police activity
- Act with pose when police treat you like a suspect
We’ll be using roll-play and watching video of real-life situations.
https://www.facebook.com/events/1414995478778251/
For a little taste of what we’ll be going over:
If the police stop you, you can:
+ Ask “Am I free to go?” If not, you are being detained. If yes, walk away.
+ Ask “Why are you detaining me?” To stop you, the officer must have a “reasonable suspicion” to suspect your involvement in a specific crime (not just a guess or a stereotype).
+ It is not a crime to be without an ID. IF you are being detained or issued a ticket, you may want to show ID to the cop because they CAN take you to the station to verify your identity.
+ If a cop tries to search your car, your house, or your person say repeatedly that you DO NOT CONSENT TO THE SEARCH. IF in a car, do not open your trunk or door - by doing so you consent to a search of your property and of yourself. IF at home, step outside and lock the door behind you so cops have no reason to enter your house. Ask to see the warrant and check for proper address, judge’s signature, and what the warrant says the cops are searching for. Everything must be correct in a legal warrant. Otherwise, send the police away.
+ The cops can do a “pat search” (Search the exterior of one’s clothing for weapons) during a dentention for “officer safety reasons”. They can’t go into your pockets or bags without your consent. If you are arrestd, they can search you and your possessions in great detail.
+ DO NOT RESIST PHYSICALLY. Use your words and keep your cool. If an officer violates your rights, don’t let them provoke you into striking back. Wait until you are out of custody then you can organize for justice.
If the police arrest you:
+ You may be handcuffed, searched, photographed and fingerprinted.
+ Say repeatedly, “I DON’T WANT TO TALK UNTIL MY LAWYER IS PRESENT.” Even if your rights aren’t read, refuse to talk until your lawyer/public defender arrives.
+ Do not talk to inmates in jail about your case.
+ If you’re on probation/parole, tell your P.O. you’ve been arrested, but NOTHING ELSE.
Come to our training to find out more!

“Love the fetus, hate the child.”
America makes it near impossible for a woman to stay autonomous—hard to get family planning resources/make the choice of getting an abortion, and harder to get child care support after the baby is born. Leaving women destitute and dependants everywhere.
Look at Canada! Not only do we give almost a full year off, it can be either maternity or paternity. That’s right, daddy can stay home with the baby while the mother goes back to work. And the leave can be also be split between them. For example, the mother could take six months, and then the father could take the other six. Did I also mention that the parent on leave continues to receive pay and is guaranteed their job back?
#I think we make fun of Canadians so much because secretly we want to be them
