A tragic day for five people killed in a plane crash this morning in Ponca City.

Three adults and two children were killed when the EXTRA EA-400 plane went down in a soybean field.

The plane went down just before 11 a.m. on Saturday.

"I had my ear plugs in and I could hear a plane, and I thought it was unusual because the mower was on and my ear plugs were in and I could hear the plane, it was pretty loud," John Hercyk said.

The first half of 2018 has been deadly for Palestinian children, with at least 35 children killed by Israeli forces in the occupied West Bank and besieged Gaza Strip, according to Defense for Children International - Palestine (DCIP).

In a report published on Monday, DCIP said that between January and July, the number of slain Palestinian children was three times higher than during the same time period in 2017.

According to the group, Israeli forces have killed more Palestinian children since January this year than in any previous year of the past decade, outside of large-scale Israeli military offensives.

'There's no such thing as boy and girl things': Drag queens indoctrinate children in public schools

Schools are hosting adult drag queen stars as story readers to children as young as preschool age and justifying the events as consistent with the latest progressive education panacea known as "social and emotional learning."


Comment: Whether you support the idea of children being indoctrinated with fringe ideologies, the issue really comes down to the decision-making ability for parents to choose what morals and values are passed on to their children. Schools should stick with teaching the 3 R's and let the parents teach them the values they deem proper.

Robert Epstein: 'Who gave Big Tech the power to decide what we can see?'

Epstein stressed that he is not a political conservative and "certainly no fan of Alex Jones," but he saw the Jones' banning as a disturbing threat to the free speech and vibrant democracy he loves. "I think the big issue here is not even a free speech issue. The issue is: Who should be making these decisions about what people see and don't see? That's the question."

"In some ways, the problem [for Jones] is better than you think. It's not as bad as you think," he qualified. "For example, Alex Jones' apps are still available through, I guess, Apple and Google Play, so he hasn't been completely shut down."

"In some ways, things are worse than you think," he continued. "Jones himself responded by saying, 'Well, you know people, you can still livestream me at...' and then he gave the links to go to so you can livestream him. But what apparently he doesn't realize is that these companies, Google in particular, they have the power to limit access to websites, which most people know nothing about."

Epstein cited a piece he wrote for U.S. News and World Report entitled "The New Censorship" in which he explained that Google is "literally every day blocking access to millions of websites."

"Sometime last year, I believe it was, they for ten minutes blocked access to every single website in Japan. On January 31, 2009, Google blocked access to virtually the entire Internet all over the world for 40 minutes," he recalled.

"The bottom line is, in some ways what's happened to Jones is not as bad as you think. In other ways, it's actually much worse than you think. There are some big issues here that we need to explore, and talk about, and understand," he said.

Comment: While the removal of InfoWars is the latest in their censorship tactics, this has been something Big Tech has been at at for a long time. See also:

German couple jailed for prostituting their 9 year old son and running an online child rape ring

A couple in Germany has been convicted and sentenced to 12 years behind bars for running an underage rape ring over a two-year period and for repeatedly pimping out their young son on the Darknet.

The victim's mother, 39-year-old Berrin T, who agreed to have her son repeatedly raped and filmed between May 2015 and August 2017, was sentenced to 12 years and six months in prison. Her partner, 48-year-old Christian L., also convicted of rape, aggravated sexual assault of children, forced prostitution and distribution of child pornography, was sentenced to 12 years with preventive detention.

At the conclusion of the trial in Freiburg, Judge Stefan Bürgelin also ordered the couple to pay €42,500 ($49,100) to the boy and a six-year-old girl who was also a victim of a pedophile network, which, along with the jailed couple, included six other men.

While sentencing the couple, Judge Bürgelin noted the mother's central role in the child abuse case. According to testimonies heard by the court, Berrin T initially agreed to arrange rape sessions on the dark web because she feared losing her partner if she failed to fulfill the man's pedophile tendencies. Subsequently, she allowed the abuse to continue for financial gain.

Comment: The offenders don't seem too phased by what they've done, they even appear to find the court appearance amusing.

It seems that every day the most abhorrent crimes by creatures who have slithered their way into positions of influence come to light:

Germany considers bringing back conscription to boost falling army numbers

Seven years after abolishing conscription, Angela Merkel's party has floated the idea of bringing back mandatory military service. The proposal, which doesn't sit well with everyone in Germany, has stirred a nationwide debate.

The discussion unfolded after Annegret Kramp-Karrenbauer, secretary general of Chancellor Merkel's Christian Democratic (CDU) Party surprisingly proposed the reintroduction of national service. "I can promise now - we will discuss the issue of conscription very intensively again," she told Frankfurter Allgemeine newspaper.

Kramp-Karrenbauer, who has been tipped as Merkel's heir apparent, added that she was not necessarily in favor of compulsory military conscription. "There are many ways to serve," she said.

Another top CDU official, Michael Kretschmer, who is the prime minister of Saxony, called for a referendum on bringing back conscription. "Suspension of conscription has been perceived premature. At the end of a thorough discussion, citizens should be asked [about the issue]," he tweeted.

Comment: The military draft was also being floated around back in 2016.

Meanwhile on Twitter: Libertarian accounts suspended, including Ron Paul Institute Director

One day after what appeared to be a coordinated attack by media giants Facebook, Apple, Spotify and Google on Alex Jones, whose various social media accounts were banned or suspended in a matter of hours, the crackdown against alternative media figures continued as several Libertarian figures, including the Ron Paul Institute director, found their Twitter accounts suspended.


Comment: First they came for Alex Jones, and I did not speak up, because I am not Alex Jones...

The actions of social media platforms to censor conservative voices has been ongoing for awhile now. These new incidents seem to be a ramping up of the same censorship campaign. That this is all happening three months out from the US mid-term elections seems beyond coincidental.

A police officer working an off-duty detail at a grocery store used a Taser on an 11-year-old girl Monday evening, prompting Cincinnati Police Chief Eliot K. Isaac to promise "a very thorough review" of his actions as well as the department's use-of-force policies as they pertain to juvenile suspects.

"We are extremely concerned when force is used by one of our officers on a child of this age," Isaac said in a news release.

The officer had been called to investigate reports of several young girls stealing items from the Kennard Avenue Kroger when he spotted the 11-year-old walking away with a backpack full of items, according to the release and Lt. Steve Saunders. She refused to stop after being verbally warned, and the officer stunned her with the Taser.

Comment: It seems to get a job in the police these days you need to be a coward and a sadist:

SOTT Focus: NYT implies Alex Jones' content removal from Apple, Facebook and YouTube is not enough

Alex Jones
Top technology companies erased most of the posts and videos on their services from Alex Jones, the internet's notorious conspiracy theorist, thrusting themselves into a fraught debate over their role in regulating what can be said online.

Apple, Google, Facebook and Spotify severely restricted the reach of Mr. Jones and Infowars, his right-wing site that has been a leading peddler of false information online. Mr. Jones and Infowars have used social media for years to spread dark and bizarre theories, such as that the Sandy Hook school shooting was a hoax and that Democrats run a global child-sex ring. Apple made its move on Sunday and the others followed on Monday.

The actions, one of the tech companies' most aggressive efforts against misinformation, highlighted a difficult dilemma for their businesses. They have long desired to combat misinformation online, but they have also been reluctant to be arbiters of truth.

Comment: Alex Jones is certainly not a bastion of truth in the current political landscape which makes it awkward for some to get behind calling out this injustice for fear of being associated with Jones or approving of his opinions. But remember that censorship often sneaks in in exactly this way - first going for the radicals few align themselves with, and slowly going further along the spectrum until the reasonable voices are similarly silenced. Those who don't voice their dissent now will find it's too late once their own speech is being threatened.

Outrageous feminist 'professor' ridicules homeless men's 'hegemonic masculinity'

A feminist professor at Wilfrid Laurier University in Canada recently published a book chapter documenting the myriad ways homeless men allegedly perpetuate "hegemonic masculinity" while discussing their hardships.

The book chapter, "When a Man's Home is Not a Castle: Hegemonic Masculinity Among Men Experiencing Homelessness," was published last Wednesday by Professor Erin Dej, in a book she co-edited on patriarchy in psychiatric wards and homeless shelters.

The goal of her research, she explains, was to "assess the ways hypermasculinity is performed among men experiencing homelessness." And to do this, Dej interviewed 27 homeless men and spent and additional 296 hours spying on them in homeless shelters.

While research on vulnerable people typically requires informed consent and approval by an ethics board, it is unclear if Dej sought this. She declined to comment on this when emailed by PJ Media, and her research makes no mention of ethics review.

Comment: Let's get this straight - a relatively wealthy and privileged 'academic' targets society's most vulnerable and downtrodden people to blame them for their 'oppressive masculinity'? Feminism is no longer a mask for predation; it is an open platform for it.
