It’s Time to Scrap Black History Month            
Carl Jackson     Carl Jackson | Feb 28, 2015
As we draw near the end of Black History Month one thing is for certain, it's done more to suppress American History than tell her story.
According to history.com the origins of Black History Month begins in 1915 when Harvard-trained historian Carter G. Woodson and minister Jesse E. Moorland founded the then Association for the Study of Negro Life and History (ASNLH), which is an organization dedicated to researching and promoting achievements of blacks and other peoples of African descent. In 1926, the group sponsored a national Negro History week, choosing the second week of February to coincide with the birthdays of Republicans Abraham Lincoln and Frederick Douglass.

BATFE poised to ban entire class of rifle ammunition

BATFE seeks ammunition ban

The federal Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives (BATFE) is poised to ban an entire class of rifle ammunition -- and we have to stop them!
Background information can be found here (link is external). In brief:
Having failed to enact a federal ban on the AR-15, America’s most popular rifle, [President Obama is] now using the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives (BATFE) to do the next best thing. BATFE is now proposing to ban a whole class of common rifle ammunition used in that overwhelmingly popular firearm.
The BATFE is taking public comments on the proposed ammunition ban until March 16th, so there's still time to make your voice heard!
Here's what you can do to stop the BATFE from enacting this backdoor gun control measure:
1. Send email to the BATFE at APAComments@atf.gov (link sends e-mail) (follow the instructions at the link for submitting comments).
2. If you prefer to send a letter, mail it to:
Denise Brown, Mailstop 6N-602, Office of Regulatory Affairs, Enforcement Programs and Services, Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms, and Explosives, 99 New York Avenue, NE, Washington, DC 20226: ATTN: AP Ammo Comments.
3. Contact your members of Congress and tell them to oppose the BATFE's backdoor gun ban. Call 202-224-3121
4. You can also contact you congressmen via email at this link (link is external), provided by our friends at the National Rifle Association's Institute for Legislative Action.

UNLIKE HIDEOUS MONSTERS FROM HOLLYWOOD,

Angler Fish


THE HORRIFYING ANGLER FISH IS FOR REAL!
Hollywood has certainly given us plenty of chills, gore and grotesque creatures over the years. But when we think about some of the real creatures that inhabit our planet, we can't imagine anything scarier than the Angler Fish.
The Angler Fish doesn't need Hollywood special effects to make it one of the most frightening creatures on earth. Her front dorsal spine sticks out of her head! There's a fleshy "bait" on the end that actually glows in the dark, making it downright irresistible to fish in the dark waters a mile below the ocean's surface. Staying very still, she dangles the glowing bait in front of her mouth. Soon, an unsuspecting fish swims up to grab the bait … but in a flash, the Angler Fish has its prey skewered on its nightmarish teeth.
Dad hits back after 'false arrest' at school meeting
Spoke out against daughter's X-rated reading assignment

William Baer gets ushered out of a school board meeting in May 2014 by Lt. James Leach, who was then police chief of Gilford, New Hampshire.










William Baer gets ushered out of a school board meeting in May 2014 by Lt. James Leach, who was then police chief of Gilford, New Hampshire.




A New Hampshire man who was handcuffed and arrested for speaking his mind at a local school board meeting last year has filed a lawsuit against the police, alleging violations of his civil rights.
The criminal charges against William Baer of Gilford, New Hampshire, were tossed out of court by Belknap County Judge James Carroll in December, as WND previously reported.
Then-Acting Police Chief James Leach, who made the arrest, could have dropped the charges but elected not to, said Baer, who was arrested while addressing the board about a reading assignment given to his daughter’s ninth-grade class that included sexually explicit material.
“Lieutenant Leach, and Police Chief (Anthony) Bean Burpee, both took an oath to support, protect and defend the Constitution of the United States,” Baer told WND. “Lieutenant Leach violated my rights when he silenced and arrested me, and Chief Bean Burpee continued to violate my rights by prosecuting me for nearly seven months.

DAD HITS BACK
Naked at airport security
A traveler, apparently upset when asked to remove his belt, decided to make sure he would not set off the metal detector by stripping naked at the security check point. 
NEW YORK (MYFOXNY) -
It happened at Pulkovo Airport in St. Persburg, Russia.
Security video of the incident showed the man start by taking off his shoes. He then removed his pants and then his shirt and his watch.
The man did leave his socks on.

After calmly walking through the check point the man puts his watch back on before grabbing his clothes and walking off.
Police are reportedly investigating the incident, although security personnel at the scene didn't seem too bothered by the entire incident.

“Several reports indicate that the executive branch under the Obama administration has not complied with this court’s temporary injunction, but continues full-speed to implement a grant of amnesty and related benefits to approximately 5 million citizens of foreign countries who are illegally in the United States under the defendants’ November 20, 2014, executive action programs implemented by several memoranda issued by Secretary of Homeland Security Jeh Johnson,” the filing explains.
The suggestion is accompanied by a motion seeking “further leave” of the court to file the request.

 FCC Approves 'Net Neutrality' Regulations
Conn Carroll | Feb 26, 2015

If you like what Obamacare has done to health care, you are going to love what the Federal Communications Commission is about to do to the internet.
The FCC voted by a slim 3-2 margin Thursday to pass new "net neutrality" regulations that give the federal government unprecedented control over how the internet is managed.
Just as Obamacare was supposed to make health care cheaper for all Americans, net neutrality is supposed to guarantee "free and open access to the internet," according to FCC Chairman Tom Wheeler.

Obama to ban bullets by executive action  Threatens top-selling AR-15 rifle     Published: 21 hours ago    (Washington Examiner)
 It’s starting.
As promised, President Obama is using executive actions to impose gun control on the nation, targeting the top-selling rifle in the country, the AR-15 style semi-automatic, with a ban on one of the most-used AR bullets by sportsmen and target shooters.
The Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives this month revealed that it is proposing to put the ban on 5.56 mm ammo on a fast track, immediately driving up the price of the bullets and prompting retailers, including the huge outdoors company Cabela’s, to urge sportsmen to urge Congress to stop the president.

Al-Qaida planning kamikaze attacks on ships in Mediterranean, cables claim
Leaked document claims effort to extend range to Europe   Published: 7 hours ago
(LONDON GUARDIAN) Al-Qaida has developed a seaborne unit to attack targets around the Mediterranean, according to a confidential report from Russian intelligence, one of a cache of secret documents from spy agencies around the world tracking jihadi terrorist groups.
According to the Russians, North African al-Qaida (Aqim – al-Qaida in the Islamic Maghreb) has established a 60-strong team of suicide bombers to plant mines under the hull of ships and to use small, fast craft for kamikaze attacks.
The claim, in a leaked document from Russia’s Federal Security Service (FSB), is one of a string of reports on the rise of Islamic State (Isis) and al-Qaida.

Ted Cruz Just Shed Light on Another Crime Committed by Obama; And it’s a WhopperTPNN reports:

Ted Cruz Just Shed Light on Another Crime Committed by Obama; And it’s a Whopper   24 February, 2015

Senator Ted Cruz, a likely 2016 Republican presidential candidate and a favorite within the pro-liberty, pro-Constitution grassroots Tea Party movement, said that Obama has gone way beyond prosecutorial discretion with his unconstitutional amnesty for illegal aliens, but is basically “counterfeiting immigration documents.”
   Appearing on FOX News’ “The Kelly File” with Megyn Kelly on Tuesday, Sen. Cruz accused Obama of a “my way or the highway approach,” and that just because Congress may not give him everything he wants, and he is unwilling to compromise, doesn’t give him to the authority unilaterally ignore federal law and violate the Constitution, and America’s system of checks and balances.
   Regarding the huge decision late Monday by federal Judge Hanen, which at least temporarily halts the implementation of Obama’s illegal amnesty, Sen. Cruz told Kelly (emphasis added):
“This district court opinion, it’s a 50-page opinion which I would encourage anyone interested in the law to read this opinion, because it’s a careful, scholarly opinion. And one of the things it points out is the president has claimed, rather absurdly, that the basis of his authority is quote, ‘prosecutorial discretion,’ that he is simply choosing not to prosecute four-and-a-half million people here illegally.
   But what the district court concluded quite rightly, is they’re doing far more than that. The administration is printing work authorizations — it is affirmatively acting in contravention of federal law.
   Basically, what it’s doing is counterfeiting immigration documents, because the work authorizations it’s printing are directly contrary to the text of federal law, and it is dangerous when a president ignores federal law.”
   Before declaring his illegal amnesty Obama previously claimed 22 times, in his own words, that he had no such constitutional authority, including the infamous “I’m not a dictator,” and “I’m not a king” lines. 

And of course he is speaking to a predominately hispanic crowd made up of ??? illegals

President Obama Defends Immigration Policies in MSNBC/Telemundo Town        

President Barack Obama on Wednesday challenged Republicans to pass a bill declaring his immigration executive action illegal and then vowed to veto it while at a town hall where he also exhorted young people to vote and predicted a Latino or Asian American would one day be in the White House.
Obama spent about an hour discussing immigration at the bilingual town hall hosted by MSNBC and Telemundo on the Florida International University campus.

"If McConnell, the leader of the Senate and the Speaker of the House John Boehner want to have a vote on whether what I'm doing is legal or not, they can have that vote. I will veto that vote," Obama said

"Do you really intend to deport 11 million people?"-----Why not, if they are here illegally ? They wouldn't be here if not for obamas  "open border policy" THEY ARE ILLEGALS!!!
If they come into the country thru the system set in place, then WELCOME ! otherwise..........ADIOS

‘Jihadi John’: The Islamic State killer behind the mask is a young Londoner     The Washington Post

© Rex features American hostage Peter Kassig is paraded in front of the camera in an orange boiler suit in a video released on the internet showing the beheading of British hostage Alan Henning, by a British ISIL terrorist known as "Jihadi John."
LONDON — The world knows him as “Jihadi John,” the masked man with a British accent who has beheaded several hostages held by the Islamic State and who taunts audiences in videos circulated widely online.
But his real name, according to friends and others familiar with his case, is Mohammed Emwazi, a Briton from a well-to-do family who grew up in West London and graduated from college with a degree in computer programming. He is believed to have traveled to Syria around 2012 and to have later joined the Islamic State, the group whose barbarity he has come to symbolize.
“I have no doubt that Mohammed is Jihadi John,” said one of Emwazi’s close friends who identified him in an interview with The Washington Post. “He was like a brother to me. . . . I am sure it is him"  STORY

Video captures octopus grabbing crab in surprise land attack


An incredible video has captured the moment when an octopus leaps from a rock pool to launch a surprise attack on a crab before dragging the unfortunate crustacean to its death.
The 50-second YouTube video shows a yellow crab near the edge of a pool. Suddenly, an octopus emerges from the waters, catching the crab completely unawares. Carefully avoiding the crab’s claws, the octopus ensnares its prey with its suckers before quickly retreating to the watery depths with its meal.

Reel-y? 280-pound catfish reportedly caught in Italy's Po River



Catfish come in all varieties, shapes and sizes, some big and some small.
And one downright gigantic, apparently now swimming in a river in Italy.
That's the fish story being told by Dino Ferrari, who reeled in a 280-pound (127-kilogram), 8.75-foot-long catfish last Thursday along the Po River, said Davide Valla, who is with Ferrari's sponsor company Sportex.

Susan Rice: Netanyahu Visit 'Destructive' To U.S.-Israel Relationship   The Huffington Post

US National Security Adviser Susan Rice speaks during the closing session of the White House Summit to Counter Violent Extremism at the State Department on February 19, 2015 in Washington, DC. AFP PHOTO/MANDEL NGAN (Photo credit should read MANDEL NGAN/AFP/Getty Images) © MANDEL NGAN via Getty Images US National Security Adviser Susan Rice speaks during the closing session of the White House Summit to Counter Violent Extremism at the State Department on February 19, 2015 in Washington, DC. AFP… Susan Rice, President Barack Obama's national security adviser, said Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu's planned speech in front of a joint session of Congress will be "destructive" to U.S.-Israel relations.
"What has happened over the last several weeks, by virtue of the invitation that was issued by the Speaker [John Boehner] and the acceptance of it by Prime Minister Netanyahu two weeks in advance of his election, is that on both sides, there has now been injected a degree of partisanship, which is not only unfortunate, I think it's destructive of the fabric of the relationship," Rice told PBS' Charlie Rose.
"It's always been bipartisan," Rice added. "We need to keep it that way. We want it that way. I think Israel wants it that way. The American people want it that way. When it becomes injected or infused with politics, that's a problem."
Obama has said he will not meet with Netanyahu ahead of his speech in March, saying it would be "inappropriate" to meet with the leader two weeks before the Israeli elections. Netanyahu was invited to speak in front of a joint session of Congress by House Speaker John Boehner (R-Ohio), who did not seek approval from the White House before sending the invitation.
Several lawmakers have spoken out against the speech, saying it could cause additional strain on international talks over Iran's nuclear plans. Sen. Patrick Leahy (D-Vt.) called Netanyahu's speech "a tawdry and high-handed stunt" in a statement earlier this month.

Oscars 2015: 'American Sniper' Snubbed Despite Its $400M-Plus Box Office
 
The Warner Bros. and Village Roadshow movie, starring Bradley Cooper as real-life Navy SEAL Chris Kyle, was up for six Oscars, including best picture and best actor, but went home only with the Oscar for best sound editing.
Sniper has been a runaway hit at the box office since its Dec. 25 release, becoming the most successful war film of all time. Through Sunday, the movie has grossed $319.6 million in North America and $108.6 million internationally for a worldwide total of $428.1 million.
That's far more than any other best picture contender, including winner Birdman which has grossed $76.5 million worldwide, including $37.7 million in the U.S.
Sniper is based on the book American Sniper: The Autobiography of the Most Lethal Sniper in U.S. Military History by Scott McEwen, Jim DeFelice and Kyle, who was killed by a fellow veteran at a shooting range in 2013.

The film has been unique in galvanizing moviegoers both in American's heartland and in more liberal markets.
American Sniper was also up for an Oscar for best adapted screenplay, which it lost to fellow best picture nominee The Imitation Game.

Obama Is the Scaremonger-in-Chief

Far from the dire picture painted by the president and his fellow Democrats, 90 percent of the Department of Homeland Security would remain on the job in a partial government shutdown.
President Obama and congressional Democrats are offering up doomsday scenarios if the Department of Homeland Security funding authorization expires this Friday.
Homeland Security Secretary Jeh Johnson implied on the talk shows Sunday morning that efforts to thwart terrorist attacks and assist Americans buried in snow could be imperiled if Republicans keep trying to de-fund the president’s executive action on illegal immigration. Johnson amplified his dire predictions that afternoon before a gathering of the National Governors Association, saying: “[A shutdown] means taking people off the front line and realigning their responsibility.” Not to be outdone, the president issued his own warning in a session Monday before the National Governors Association. A partial government shutdown, he said, would end up suspending pay for more than 100,000 Homeland Security agents, which “will have a direct impact on America’s national security because their hard work helps to keep us safe.”

American school changes Pledge of Allegiance to One Nation under ‘Allah’

Todd Starnes (Fox News) reported:
 

Things have gone too far with this school in Colorado.
Tom Lopez, Colorado high school principal, is allowing Muslim students to recite the Pledge of Allegiance in Arabic.
The Arabic translation of the Pledge of Allegiance replaced “one nation under God” with “one nation under Allah (The Islamic God).”
Parents are complaining that the Pledge of Allegiance should always be recited in English to avoid any kind of propaganda.
As a veteran and a friend of a man killed defending these children in their little games they like to play with our pledge, I’m offended,” wrote Chris Wells on the Daily Coloradoan.

The principal has defended his position:
I’ve been shocked with prejudicial statements that have been made,” he said. ” I’ve been shocked with the lack of seeking understanding. There’s definitely suspicion and fear expressed in these people’s minds. There’s some hate.”
