Freedom overload! Cops ignore real crimes to unlawfully hold innocents at gunpoint

After the Sandy Hook Elementary School shooting in December 2012, Connecticut passed gun laws in April 2013 that made it amongst the most restrictive states in the country. However, residents can still traverse their way through the bureaucratic red tape and legally obtain a permit allowing them to open carry and conceal carry a firearm.

It is the legal right of Connecticut residents to be able to move about freely while open carrying a firearm.

In spite of this legal right and permitting process, Manchester police officers were captured on video unlawfully detaining and handcuffing three individuals. The result is nothing short of infuriating as multiple Manchester police officers are recorded ignoring actual crimes taking place, in order to harass, threaten, and detain three innocent individuals who had committed no crime.

Police opened an "arson inquiry" after firefighters were dispatched to battle a blaze at the mosque under construction in Muret, a suburb of the French town of Tolouse. No injuries were reported.

Forensic experts were also called to the scene. The final cause of the incident has yet to be established, as the investigation continues, French news magazine L'OBS reports.

The fire broke out "in the early hours of Wednesday" the French outlet adds. Officials say no one was harmed in the incident. The building itself sustained "only minor damage," Europe1 reported.

This is already the second time the same mosque was set ablaze. In 2012 the building caught fire, with arson suspected as well.

A man who carried out a knife attack at London's Leytonstone Underground Station last year has a history of mental illness and believed Tony Blair was his guardian angel, a court has been told.

Lawyers defending Muhiddin Mire, 30, told the Old Bailey that their client had experienced paranoid schizophrenia for several years before attacking an Underground passenger last December.

Medical experts recommended the Islamic State (IS, formerly ISIS/ISIL) sympathizer receive further psychiatric treatment, warning he posed "a very severe" risk to the public.

Mire, who worked as a taxi driver, was found guilty of attempted murder last month, but the court is now trying to determine his sentence. He attempted to behead a member of public and slashed another man's neck in Leytonstone Underground Station last December, shortly after the British Parliament voted to extend airstrikes against IS from Iraq into Syria.

'I'll blow you up': Manhunt in Bremen after 'pro-ISIS psycho' escapes psychiatric hospital shouting threats

German police have arrested a 19-year-old Algerian asylum seeker who fled a psychiatric hospital after threatening to blow up people. A shopping mall in Bremen was evacuated during the manhunt. Police have tried to downplay the man's links to Islamists.

Although police confirmed that the man had previously expressed admiration for the Islamic State (IS, formerly ISIS/ISIL) terror group, hailing the recent shooting attack at a Munich shopping center that left 10 people dead, police refused to call the hunt an anti-terror raid.

"One can speak of rather an extensive operation," Bremen's police spokeswoman said, adding that "there is no evidence that he had connections to the IS or concrete attack plans," as cited by Die Welt.

However, the spokeswoman admitted that, due to the nature of the beliefs allegedly harbored by the suspect, police had to "proceed from the assumption that the missing person is dangerous."

2K terrorists known to UK police, just 1 held under special measures

Only one suspect is being held under the UK's highly restrictive Terrorism Prevention and Investigation Measure (TPIM) program, despite a heightened national alert and fears of extremist attacks. The TPIM program, which came into effect in 2012, can include intense restrictions on suspects such as curfews and electronic tagging.


Former senior counterterrorism officer Chris Phillips told the Daily Mail that just one person being held under TPIM contrasts starkly with the fact that up to 2,000 terror suspects are known to police. He said, however, that the sheer number of suspects makes the risk hard to manage. "How on earth you could ever monitor 2,000 people, let alone the fact that the number that we have got now has probably increased," he said.

Lord Carlile, an independent reviewer of UK terror laws told the Daily Mail: "It is surprising and worrying that we are down to just one Tpim given the situation appertaining all over Europe. We know that there is a severe risk of terror attack. I hope that the Government is examining the possibility of increasing the use of Tpims or toughening them up...it is absolutely essential that the authorities should have the powers they need." The UK terror threat level stands at "severe," the second highest category available, which means an attack is thought highly likely.

Comment: Terror attacks, real or facsimiles, make the rounds these days to stir the pot; keep Europe on the edge and politicians in line.

Cause of crash unknown; NTSB to begin investigation

Four people died Wednesday afternoon at Columbia Airport when a twin engine Cessna 310, landing from the north, veered off runway 17 and was engulfed in flames. By the time emergency services arrived on the scene at shortly after 4:30 p.m., "the plane was fully engulfed," said Tuolumne County Sheriff's Office Sgt. Andrea Benson, adding that the identities of the victims were not yet known on Wednesday evening and that the Sheriff's coroner's office would attempt to identify them. Authorities removed the four bodies from the plane about 6:30 p.m.

The crash, which was reported to have occurred at shortly after 4 p.m., also sparked a small vegetation fire that consumed about 100 square yards of low-lying grass and was quickly extinguished by Cal Fire crews. A yellow dump truck, blackened by the flames, stood parked approximately 75 yards from the crash site.

For much of the afternoon and into early evening, dozens of law enforcement officers and emergency crew members congregated near the crash site. There were no reports on what may have caused the crash. Benson said that a team from the National Transportation Review Board would arrive from Colorado on Thursday to conduct an investigation.

DNC circus continues: Obama speech upstaged by protests, wolf whistling and cowbell noise

President Barack Obama's speech on Wednesday highlighted the need for party unity and long term commitment to changing the political system. However, his speech was upstaged by TPP protesters and other noisy audience members.

Early into his speech, Obama covered many of the tragedies that have befallen the nation during his presidency. "There are pockets of America that never recovered in factory closures," he said as one loud voice shouted out "No more TPP!" Quieter protesters held up anti-TPP signs during his speech.

The Trans-Pacific Partnership (TPP) is supported by Barack Obama; so much so that some have speculated that he had hoped it would be a lasting legacy of his administration.

Blue privilege: NY cop who left infant son in hot car all day won't be charged

New York cop will not be charged in the death of his infant son, who perished after being left in a hot car for 8 ½ hours.
In yet another example of privilege granted to those who work for the system, an officer from Rome, New York, will not be charged in the death of his infant son, who perished after being left in inside a hot car for 8 ½ hours.

Officer Mark Fanfarillo left his 4 ½-month-old baby, Michael, in his car during the summer for nearly nine hours — but Oneida County District Attorney Scott McNamara refused to press charges.

According to local WSYR-TV, the D.A. said Fanfarillo first realized he'd abandoned the baby in the car when his wife contacted him to say Michael had never been dropped off at the family's daycare provider. Fanfarillo, McNamara explained, rushed out to the car after that call and "found his son's lifeless body." Although Fanfarillo "relentlessly" attempted to resuscitate the baby, the effort was ultimately unsuccessful.

Prison authorities fail to remove Islamist, homophobic, anti-Semitic books distributed in UK prisons

Five "extremist Islamist books" promoting anti-semitism, homophobia, and hatred towards non-Muslims were distributed by imams at prisons in England and Wales for months, even after jail authorities were alerted.

Among the titles is a book urging Muslims to fight and subjugate unbelievers. Another blames Jews for "materialism, animal sexuality, the destruction of the family, and the dissolution of society," according to The Times.

One of the books focuses on "the sexual deviation known as homosexuality," saying: "The spread of this depraved practice in a society disrupts its natural life pattern and makes those who practice it slaves to their lusts, depriving them of decent taste, decent morals and a decent manner of living."

Another of the books is widely accepted as the foundational text for the modern jihadist movement.

Copies of some of the publications were found in chaplaincy rooms at nine of 11 prisons inspected during a review, led by former Home Office official and prison governor Ian Acheson, of radicalization behind bars, according to the newspaper.
