As you would have predicted, the National Rifle Association's response to last week's deadly rifle attack inside a Florida high school is that we need more "good guys" with guns in schools.  That was the NRA's response to the slaughter of 20 children - many of them first graders - in Newtown, Conn., in December 2012. That's why it's not surprising that the deaths of 17 innocent people at Marjory Stoneman Douglas didn't change the NRA's message. Even now, on NRATV, the NRA is arguing for guns for good guys.

It just so happens, though, that on the same day an expelled student opened fired on his former high school in Florida, a person in Amarillo, Texas, took about 100 people hostage at a homeless shelter there and a good guy with a gun ended up getting shot by the police.

According to the Amarillo Globe-News, a 35-year-old regular at the Faith City Mission brought in a gun, entered the chapel and held the people there hostage.  A Faith City Mission student bravely confronted the hostage-taker and successfully wrestled the gun out of his hand. Amarillo police - who had been alerted that a gunman was holding people at gunpoint -- then entered the chapel and opened fire on the hero, that is, the person they spotted holding the weapon.

Texas police shot a man after he disarmed a potential church shooter who had been holding more than 100 people hostage in at a congregation in Amarillo.

Joshua Len Jones, 35, barged into a church service at the Faith City Mission in Amarillo, on Valentine’s Day and pulled out a gun.

Churchgoer Tony Garces managed to disarm Jones during a scuffle, but when police arrived, they shot Mr Garces instead.

The incident took place during a morning service at the Faith City Mission, a Christian organisation which helps people in need in the community.

Jones, who had received help from the Faith City Mission in the past, held about 100 congregants and church staff hostage.

While waiting for police, church staff and attendees managed to overpower Jones, and during the fight, Mr Garces got hold of the gum

‘I said ‘hey, hey I got the gun,’ Mr Garces told ABC7 Amarillo.He described how officers ordered him to throw the gun to the floor, but that he hesitated as he was worried that the loaded gun would go off if he did so. 

‘I didn’t want anyone else getting hurt. Then pop, pop they shot me. 

‘I went down, then a puddle of blood. I thought I was a goner.’

Mr Garces, who credits the Faith City Mission with helping him turn his life around after a four-year-stint in prison, was hit in the neck, but was rushed to hospital and survived. 

He is now calling for police  to receive more and improved training in use of deadly violence, telling ABC7 that the officer who shot him ‘didn’t know what he was doing’.

Jones was arrested at the scene, and has been charged with six first-degree felony aggravated kidnapping.

WEST SACRAMENTO CA (IFS) -- When the police appears at your doorstep, they only see the gun.  They don't give a damn who is holding it.  They always shoot first and answer questions later.  Hech, you just shot the hero that help disarm the person.  

You want teachers with guns in school?  This goes to show you that the police have no judgement when it comes to shots fired.  They just go in blazing away and they don't give a damn about the issues or what is going on.  

These cops are blind to "common sense" and they do not care about what the situation is -- and they use bullets to kill and hurt people who are trying to help the cops. 

These cops suck!  I am more afraid of the cops with guns, then the hostage taker with a gun. If this was a school teacher -- they would have died by the hands of the police without asking one question.  WHO'S THE GOOD GUYS??

Court hands DACA recipients another victory

By Catherine E. Shoichet and Tal Kopan, CNN
CNN - ‎Tuesday‎, ‎February‎ ‎27‎, ‎2018

Young immigrants brought illegally to the United States as children have won another legal victory.

A federal judge in California ruled Monday that the government can't revoke DACA recipients' work permits or other protections without giving them notice and a chance to defend themselves.

The ruling in a California district court marks the third time a lower court has ruled against the administration's handling of the Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals program. But this case, unlike the others, is not about President Donald Trump's September decision to end the program.

US District Judge Philip Gutierrez's preliminary injunction Monday addressed another aspect: government decisions to revoke protections from individual DACA recipients.

The Obama-era DACA program protected young immigrants brought illegally to the United States from deportation if they met certain criteria, paid fees, passed background checks and didn't commit serious crimes.

The Trump administration announced it was ending the program last year, arguing that it was unconstitutional. A series of recent lower court rulings have thwarted that effort, requiring the government to continue renewing permits under the program while legal challenges make their way through the courts. On Monday, the US Supreme Court said it was staying out of the dispute for now.

Meanwhile, activists across the country have increasingly criticized government decisions to end DACA protections in individual cases.

Monday's ruling came in a class action lawsuit filed by the American Civil Liberties Union. The suit argues that the government had revoked protections from DACA recipients who hadn't been convicted of serious crimes without giving them any opportunity to defend themselves.

An example: Officials revoked the work permit of one of the plaintiffs, Jesus Arreola, after he was arrested on suspicion of immigrant smuggling. An immigration judge later found that allegation wasn't credible, according to the ACLU's complaint. Arreola says he was an Uber and Lyft driver who had picked up passengers for a friend without any knowledge of their immigration status.

Attorneys representing the government argue that the plaintiffs had "misused the trust given to them with the administrative grace of DACA."

The judge said the Department of Homeland Security must restore protections to the group of DACA recipients who had them revoked "without notice, a reasoned explanation, or any opportunity to respond."

The ruling also temporarily blocks officials from revoking DACA protections from others without following a procedure "which includes, at a minimum, notice, a reasoned explanation, and an opportunity to be heard prior to termination."

The Justice Department did not immediately respond to a request for comment about Monday's ruling.

According to DHS, officials had revoked or terminated 2,139 individuals' DACA protections over the lifetime of the program as of August 2017.

The ruling came the same day the Supreme Court said it would stay out of the dispute over the termination of DACA for now, leaving renewals under the program in place for at least months.

• When ex-Trump campaign Chairman Paul Manafort and his business partner, Rick Gates, appear in court Thursday, it will be their first appearance before the judge who’ll preside over their money laundering and conspiracy case: a Harvard Law School graduate appointed by President Barack Obama.
  
  In just six years on the bench, U.S. District Judge Amy Berman Jackson has a record on hot-button issues that might cause President Donald Trump’s already overheated Twitter feed to burst into flames.

  Earlier this year, for instance, she dismissed a lawsuit filed by the parents of two of the four Americans who died at the U.S. compound in Benghazi, Libya in 2012, seeking to hold Trump’s election opponent Hillary Clinton responsible.
  
  And four years ago, she sided with the Obama administration request and put on hold a lawsuit by House Republicans demanding papers related to former Attorney General Eric Holder’s botched Fast-and-Furious gun-tracking operation.
  
  That said, she also declined to dismiss the suit and, last year, rejected an executive branch privilege claim and directed delivery of the documents. She also sentenced former Illinois congressman Jesse Jackson Jr., a Democrat, to 30 months in prison after he pleaded guilty to charges arising from his misuse of campaign funds.
  

  Release Terms

  A Baltimore native born in 1954, Jackson served as District of Columbia federal prosecutor, where she received a commendation for her work on murder and sexual assault cases before going into private practice. She’s been a partner of criminal defense lawyer Plato Cacheris at the firm now known as Trout Cacheris & Janis, and of one-time U.S. Attorney General Benjamin Civiletti, when both were at Venable LLP.
  
  As a defense lawyer, Jackson defended former Louisiana Congressman William J. Jefferson, who was sentenced in 2009 to 13 years in prison for bribery. Last month, he was ordered freed from prison after a judge tossed out seven of 10 charges against him. She defended a man accused of one of the largest mortgage frauds in Virginia history -- he got seven years in prison after pleading guilty -- and she represented Merrill Lynch, Morgan Stanley and other banks in a financial fraud class-action lawsuit.

Trump thinking - again - about running for president

By Steve Chaggaris CBS News May 27, 2013, 2:55 PM

 https://www.cbsnews.com/news/trump-thinking-again-about-running-for-president/

Serial presidential campaign explorer Donald Trump is at it again, spending $1 million researching a 2016 run, according to his executive vice president.
"The electoral research was commissioned," Trump's executive VP and special counsel Michael Cohen first told the New York Post and confirmed to CBS News. "We did not spend $1 million on this research for it just to sit on my bookshelf," he said.
"At this point Mr. Trump has not made any decision on a political run, but what I would say is that he is exactly what this country needs. The turnout at these political speeches indicates his following remains very strong and is growing."

If Russia can create fake ‘Black Lives Matter’ accounts, who will next?

By Anne Applebaum Columnist October 15, 2017 Email the author

Send a spy to spread rumors on the other side of the front line. Drop leaflets into enemy territory. Debilitate the enemy using its own people, in their own language — Lord Haw-Haw, Tokyo Rose — over their own radios. The tactics of demoralization are as old as politics — as old as war — and now we know what the second-decade-of-the-21st-century version looks like, too. 

Pushed by a congressional investigation, Facebook has finally turned over some 3,000 advertisements and links to pages created and paid for by Russian trolls. Among them was “Secured Borders,” a fake, Kremlin-backed “organization” that appeared to be based in Idaho. It pumped out messages about immigrant “scum” and attracted 133,000 followers before it was shut down. In August 2016, its Russian backers actually promoted a rally in Twin Falls to protest an alleged “upsurge of violence against American citizens.”

At the same time, a different set of Russian operatives sponsored and advertised two black rappers who bashed “racist b----” Hillary Clinton. They also borrowed the identity of a Muslim group that claimed Clinton “created, funded and armed” al-Qaeda and the Islamic State. Meanwhile, thousands of computerized bots pushed repetitive pro-Trump messages on Twitter, persuading many actual humans to respond.

All these games are familiar: Russians have used similar tactics for years in Europe, where pro-Russian social-media users on Facebook, Twitter and many other platforms have long sought to amplify support for parties of the far left and the far right. During Germany’s recent elections, official Russian media and networks of Russian bots tweeted and posted messages warning of immigration’s dire threat to Germany and pushing the cause of Alternative for Germany, an anti-immigrant party.

Senator Harris Hits the Ground Running in 2018 Friend, We’ve had an extremely busy year so far, and Senator Harris has spent every moment of it fighting tirelessly to ensure that voices across California are heard. Just last week, in response to President Donald Trump’s remarks at the State of the Union, Senator Harris released a statement affirming that President Trump's words rang hollow, “You cannot reject bipartisan plans to improve health care and protect Dreamers or sow hate and division - and then turn around the next day and say you want to work together.” The Senator also provided her reaction to the State of the Union on MSNBC and CNN. On January 9th, Senator Harris was appointed to the Senate Judiciary Committee, vowing to “provide a voice for our most vulnerable communities” as well as protect California from “this Administration’s repeated attacks on our values.” A few days later, to commemorate Martin Luther King Day on January 15th, the Senator served as Grand Marshal for the 33rd Annual Martin Luther King, Jr. Kingdom Day Parade and Breakfast in Los Angeles and highlighted the need to “understand that a fight for the ideals of who we are as a country is the essence, is the whole definition of what it means to be a patriot and this is a fight about love of country.” This sentiment carried on in her January 22nd vote opposing the Stopgap Spending bill, which highlighted her continued fight for a long-term funding bill that supports our military, community health centers, the Children’s Health Insurance Program, disaster relief for Californians, and provides Dreamers a pathway to citizenship.    What's Happening in D.C.?

Full text of the bill is available here. The Music Modernization Act: Cosponsored. Sets up a new simplified licensing entity to make it easier for digital music companies to obtain a license and play songs, as well as ensure songwriters are paid the royalties they are owed. This bill that would be the “most significant change in music licensing laws in decades” to ensure songwriters are paid fair value for their songs. Full text of the bill is available here.

Harris, Feinstein Demand Information on Trump Administration’s Attempt to Prosecute Elected Officials: In response to Department of Homeland Security Secretary Kirstjen Nielsen’s testimony in front of the Senate Judiciary Committee where she stated the Department of Justice (DOJ) is looking into prosecuting elected officials from states like California, U.S. Senators Kamala D. Harris and Dianne Feinstein (both D-Calif.) sent a letter demanding additional information. Full text of the letter is availablehere. Harris and 21 U.S. Senators Call on Trump Administration to Ban Drilling Off Their Coasts: In the wake of Florida’s exemption from President Trump’s controversial offshore drilling plan, U.S. Senator Kamala D.

Full text of the letter is available here.

The abandon Space Project in 1950's Barcroft Station in the White Mountains of Bishop California

Barcroft Station (BAR)

WEST SACRAMENTO CA (IFS) -- The University of California at Los Angeles were the keepers of the first stages of the United States Space Program.  Here they worked on and with animals for the space race.  As an alumni of UCLA, I was heartbroken to discover this piece of history and the cruelty of animals.  However, as you can see, the world first development of Solar Panels on the Quance  Huts for electricity. 

Open from about June 1 - October 31 (weather and snow permitting), Barcroft Station was constructed in 1951 at an elevation of 3800 m (12,470') in the White Mountains. Barcroft can house up to 20 people in comfortable dorms. It has a full kitchen with excellent meals provided. Three labs are available for visiting research scientists and their students, and the station has wireless internet access. Upstairs in the main building is a classroom/living room area and recreational facilities. The station has been the site of much research on the physiological effects of high elevation and was also used for a decade by Noble laureate, George Smoot, for research in cosmic background radiation. The Barcroft Station is off-grid and most power is generated from rooftop solar photovoltaic panels.

SACRAMENTO CA (IFS) -- This writers story begins in the City of Surprise, Arizona, as his eyeglasses were lost and he needed a replacement pair to drive back to Upper California.  This writer went into their store and had an examination and the promise that the glasses would be ready within three (3) day, and that they would call us when they were ready.

Their call back was on a Saturday afternoon and the cylinders with off, causing this writer to have headaches.   When asked, if their other offices in California would honor their contract and correct these lenses.  They confirmed that their California office in Sacramento would deliver the necessary work to complete the order.  They gave us thirty (30) days to complete the transaction.

Upon my arrival to Sacramento, I contacted the Town and Country Office as shown above, and was told that they would get back in touch with me.  One month later, the Sacramento Office called this writer and told us that the "Corporate Office" refused to honor their contract and would not replace the lenses.

Two weeks after that the Town and Country Office called and told this writer that the contract would be honored and to come on in for the replacement lenses.

Upon the return visit to get the lenses replaced, the Town and Country Store told this writer that he would have to pay for the lenses and that he had not acted within the "30 days" guarantee and to have a "nice day".

This business is run like a "money laundering" company.  Customer services are very lax and they do not adhere to there own contracts.  They receive big "praises" and the banks boast of their greatest of business sense.  However, they lack standard customer care and follow through.  They call you back when they feel like it.  So the dynamics are as follows;  Save your money.  Go anywhere else.  Leave these "clowns" alone.

Devin Nunes Made ‘Material Changes’ To Secret Memo Before It Went To Trump, Democrat Says

Rep. Adam Schiff called on the House Intelligence chairman to withdraw the document he sent to the president for public release.

WASHINGTON — The chairman of the House Intelligence Committee made “material changes” to a secret memo he shared with lawmakers before sending it to the president to approve for final release, the top Democrat on the committee said Wednesday night.

Adam Schiff (Calif.), the committee’s ranking Democrat, called on Chairman Devin Nunes (R-Calif.) to withdraw the version of the classified memo he sent to the White House on Monday, arguing that a prior vote in favor of releasing the memo was invalidated by Nunes’ changes.

The memo, drafted by Nunes’ staff, reportedly accuses the Justice Department and the FBI of abusing the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act (FISA) in the fall of 2016 to spy on Carter Page, a Trump campaign adviser.

Earlier this month, members of the House Intelligence Committee voted along party lines to allow all members of the House to read the memo. Several Republicans hyped the document as evidence of a cabal of law enforcement officials determined to block President Donald Trump from entering office and to undermine his presidency.
