"Y'know, we're all wasting our time writing this hack science fiction! You wanta make real money, you gotta start a religion!"
- As reported to Mike Jittlov by Theodore Sturgeon as a statement Hubbard made while at the Los Angeles Science Fantasy Society clubhouse in the 1940s.
The new anti-terror legislation has encountered little resistance from the public, reflecting a hardening of attitudes after nearly three years of periodic attacks.
Human Rights Watch criticised what it called a "normalisation of emergency powers" and UN experts raised objections in a letter to the French government last month.
Addressing an audience of security force members, President Macron urged them to "fully utilise" their new powers.

David Hickey, the president of the Security Police and Fire Professionals Union, is representing Campos and had been preparing with him for four days leading up to Thursday, the day he had a laundry list of interviews scheduled.Update (Oct. 17): Laura Loomer has another scoop: Campos shared a social security number with "Jesus A. Quintero":
Hickey said: "For the past four days he's been preparing. Thursday we had a meeting with MGM officials, and after that meeting was over we talked about the interviews, we went to a private area, and when we came out, Mr. Campos was gone."
According to KVVU-TV, Hickey later received a text message informing him that Campos was at a "quick clinic."
"Right now I'm just concerned where my member is, and what his condition is. It's highly unusual. I'm hoping everything is OK with him and I'm sure MGM or the union will let [the media] know when we hear something," Hickey said.
Hickey told the news station that the interviews were Campos' idea, explaining that Campos wanted to tell his story because he thought it would help him cope with the incident.
"Sources in intelligence have provided me with MGM security guard Jesus Campos's comprehensive intelligence report," Loomer told GotNews. "The report reveals that Jesus Campos shared a social security number with an individual named 'Jesus A Quintero.'"Update (Oct. 18): Today, Ellen will air her interview with Campos and Stephen Schuck. In the clips provided to the LV Review-Journal, we learn:

According to Loomer, this latest piece of information could shed light on Campos' employment status, and expose reasons for the hotel's lack of transparency. "A shared SSN is a very strong indicator that Jesus Campos is an illegal immigrant, and if true, it means MGM Resorts International was intentionally and illegally paying a foreign national to guard one of the most important tourist sites in the world," Loomer explained.
Loomer believes this revelation could be important for understanding both the ever-changing timeline and Campos' bizarre interview cancellations. "This shocking new exclusive revelation could explain Jesus Campos's recent disappearance and the collective silence from the Las Vegas Metropolitan Police Department, FBI, and MGM regarding the status of his employment, his apparent lack of legitimate licensing as a security guard in the state of Nevada, as well as the changing timeline regarding his whereabouts the night of the shooting on October 1st," Loomer said.
Campos reviewed the events of the shooting, recounting how he was alerted to check on a door that was ajar. He said he was on the stairwell going from the 31st to the 32nd floor and came upon a door that was blocked and wouldn't open. So he rerouted through a hallway and called security dispatch to get an engineer to check on the blocked door. The worker summoned would be Schuck.According to True Pundit "sources", the pre-recorded interview was vetted by MGM, and Campos's gag order has now been reactivated. As they put it, "No one on the MGM or FBI side wants Campos seriously cross examined by actual journalists or attorneys. Hence, the armed guard parked outside his house. He is the glue holding the FBI's flaky narrative of the shooting together. And it is certainly flaky."
Campos said he then heard drilling sounds and believed the slamming of the heavy door he passed through to get to the 32nd floor alerted Paddock to his presence. Paddock shot through the door and hit Campos in the leg.
"I was walking down and heard rapid fire," he said. "And at first I took cover. I felt a burning sensation. I went to go lift my pant leg up and I saw the blood. That's when I called it in on my radio that shots have been fired.
"And I was going to say that I was hit, but I got on ... my cellphone just to clear radio traffic so they could coordinate the rest of the call."
Schuck said he came to the 32nd floor from a higher floor via a service elevator and rounded the corner. Campos was toward the end of the hallway, but Schuck said he didn't know that at first.
"I thought I saw someone hop out of the cubby, and I kept walking," Schuck said. "Once I got more than halfway is when I saw Jesus and I started to hear shooting."
Shuck said he thought the sound was a jackhammer at first but knew that was unlikely. He also thought the shooting sound was outside and not in the hallway yet.
Campos leaned out and said, "Take cover, take cover," Schuck said.
"He yelled at me, and within milliseconds, if he didn't say that, I would have got hit. I wasn't fully in cover, and (shots) were passing behind my head and I could feel the pressure."
Campos said a female guest came out of another room's door and he told her to go back in because it wasn't safe. Campos told Schuck to stay back and take cover. More rounds from the shooter's guns followed, Campos said.
Campos seemed to acknowledge that he wouldn't revisit the events of Oct. 1 after his interview with DeGeneres.
...
His neighbors haven't seen him in a few days. No "Jesus Campos" is registered as a guest at any MGM properties on the Strip.
And while calls to his listed telephone numbers continue to go unanswered, Metropolitan Police Department spokesman Larry Hadfield said Campos is "fully cooperating with the investigation."
...
MGM said Campos is on paid leave while he continues to heal, adding that he has access to counseling options "that are available to all employees injured in the shooting."
Officer Larry Hatfield, a spokesman for the LVMPD, contends that Campos is not missing, but rather just hiding from Loomer's hard-hitting journalism. "Let me put it this way," Hatfield told WND, "If you were getting bombarded by media attention from people like Laura Loomer, it's your choice not to disclose your location."Yesterday, Campos's union president and "media handler" David Hickey's house and office were allegedly raided by federal agents in a federal corruption and racketeering probe. The union has a history of corruption; True Pundit lists 15 criminal actions against the union going back to 2006.
Moreover, Clark County Sheriff Joe Lombardo, who has been spearheading the investigation into the deadliest mass shooting in American history, has blocked Loomer on Twitter:
...
"The LVMPD and FBI are trying to make sure that what happened in Vegas stays in Vegas," Loomer told GotNews. "Not only are they participating in a full-blown misinformation campaign, which I proved through my exclusive report about the official timeline discrepancies, but they are also concealing the true identity and status of 'hero security guard' Jesus Campos from the public."
Furthermore, Loomer strongly took issue with the LVMPD's implication that she is a security threat to Campos. "It's rather absurd for the LVMPD to insinuate that Jesus Campos needs special protection from a petite unarmed female investigative reporter when they have stationed an armed guard outside of his residence, while leaving Stephen Paddock's residence open and vulnerable for robberies," Loomer said, referring to the strange break-in at Paddock's house the weekend after the massacre. "It's an easy scapegoat for the LVMPD and FBI to continue their false narrative that Jesus Campos is a victim by portraying me as a threat."
...
"Instead of taking cheap shots at a female journalist who is clearly better at investigating than agents on the ground, why doesn't the LVMPD focus on how Campos was able to serve as an uncredentialed security guard for a major casino conglomerate?" Loomer asked. "I'm confident that LVMPD is threatened by my investigation, given the fact that they banned me from the last press conference and Sheriff Lombardo blocked me on Twitter following my report regarding Campos's suspicious use of an out-of-state SSN that's tied to two Hispanic males. Given the fact that LVMPD had already lied to the public about the investigation, I wouldn't be surprised if Campos was placed into some form of legal protection to keep him and his family from talking to the public. They better buckle up because there's a new sheriff in town."
"As time moves on, I realize I haven't seen you and Mrs. Clinton (Hillary) in a long time, but I think of you both often," he wrote in an August 2010 email to Clinton's assistant Capricia Marshall. "I don't know if movie producers are still worthy in your world, but next time you're in NYC I'd love to see you."
He signed the email as "Your bad friend, Harvey."

Weinstein recalled "fond memories" of Clinton watching Shakespeare in Love and promoted his upcoming Oscar-winning movie The King's Speech.
"Again I think you would both like it (and Hillary would approve because it's PG-13 with not too many swear words)," Weinstein continued.
The former first lady appeared delighted by Weinstein's pitch and asked for more of his films.
"That is so sweet," Clinton replied to her assistant. "So pls let him know I not only want the movies, including The Tillman Story) but I've heard about some of his other projects from Jamie Patricof (Company Men, Blue Valentine) that also sound great."
In June 2012, Weinstein emailed Clinton's assistant again to send her a copy of his interview with President Bill Clinton after he guest-hosted Piers Morgan's nighttime show on CNN.
"Do you think calling Secretary Clinton the greatest Secretary of State of all time shows just a touch of my bias?" he wrote. "Pres. Clinton is incredible. I hope our current president, who is as busy as can be, gets to see it."
He also told Clinton that he tried to smear former presidential candidate Mitt Romney and Donald Trump in the interview.
"I did my best to flatten Romney in a cool kind of way, and talked about how Donald Trump was uncool was the least I could do," he wrote.
In 2013, Weinstein emailed again to offer his services.
"Is there anything I can do for Hillary?" Weinstein emailed in January 2013 to Clinton's assistant at the State Department. "Perhaps there's specific movies she wants to see? Please let me know if there's anything I can do."
"Pls respond," Hillary replied to her assistant.
