Chuck E. Cheese is an American restaurant chain that especially caters for children as their slogan "where a kid can be a kid" unmistakably suggests.
Drug trafficking is not just a problem in America's cities it is the main problem. Turf wars by drug dealers account for most of the murders in the United States. Drug-related shootings are at all-time highs. Crimes by drug addicts account for most of the prostitution, robberies, and burglaries in America. Prisons are packed with heroin users along with psychiatric wards and graveyards.
For eight years President Obama has been the commander-in-chief of U.S. armed forces in Afghanistan, a country that produces 90% of the opium in the world. ¹ With a stroke of his pen Obama could shut off most of the drug supply to 17 million heroin and opium addicts. Instead, his legacy is the same as George W. Bush. He allowed drugs to flow unimpeded out of Afghanistan for both terms of his presidency.
In a September 17, 2016 speech to the Congressional Black Caucus Foundation, President Obama insisted that it would be a personal insult to him if African Americans do not vote for Hillary Clinton. He said that only she can continue his legacy of support for the black community.
Wait. A legacy of support for the black community. Really?
Comment: Hillary Clinton...A legacy of support for the black community. Really?
Closet racists? Bill and Hillary's history of destroying the African American community
But one thing is clear; Hillary and Bill Clinton both have a long history of supporting policies and certain politicians that have been more harmful to the African American community than one might think...The Clintons have decimated the African American community, yet Hillary and her supporters believe she is the answer to the problems facing the African American community today and that is just wishful thinking, nothing more.
The book, published on Tuesday, asserts that Malaysia Airlines had received a safety audit in 2013 that should have grounded all of their wide-body passenger planes, as their equipment would not let them report their position more frequently than at 30-minute intervals.
"The aircraft functioned just fine," Negroni, an aviation journalist and industry veteran told the Australian Broadcasting Corporation. "The airline couldn't track it. The airline could not track the aeroplanes as often as they were required to do."
Negroni believes that Malaysia owes the world, and particularly Australia, which has spent over $60 million on the search, an explanation. She is calling on the Turnbull government to demand that they do.
Numerous WPXI viewers contacted the news station to complain about numerous student suspensions issued at Penn Hills High School last week over a change in the dress code for 2016-17 that prohibits students from wearing "hoodies."
District spokeswoman Teresita Kolenchak confirmed that a total of 46 Penn Hills students were suspended on Monday and Thursday last week for "various dress code violations," but denied that the bulk of them were related to the hoodie ban, KDKA reports. "We are not sure where the exaggerated reports of 'hoodie incidents' for today are coming from," Kolenchak said. "We have actually been very pleased with the level of cooperation from both parents and students on the issue."
The school's new dress code states that students must remove hoodies while at school and store them in their locker or backpacks because they could cause a "safety concern" and "disrupt the educational process," according to WPXI. While school officials claim the "hoodie incidents" are exaggerated, students commenting online claim they're downplaying the impact of the no-hoodie policy.
"I'm one of the people who got suspended over a hoodie and it wasn't 46," Christopher Dixon posted to Facebook. "Try over 100." "They are lying 80-90 kids got suspended!" Jadah Dane wrote. "It was empty as (f***) today." "F***ing hate Penn Hills," Mara Donald wrote. "I got suspended for having a jacket with a hood on it."

Glenn Grannon, with the sheriff's department, said Clark Ladner and Cassie Barker were placed on administrative leave after 3-year-old Cheyenne Hyer died Friday. Sheriff Ricky Adam confirmed Barker is Cheyenne's mother, according to WLOX.
According to investigators, Barker was traveling in her patrol car, with her daughter inside, when she stopped at Ladner's home. Leaving the child in the car, Barker stayed inside Ladner's house for around four hours.
According to reports, neighbors were stunned after another police officer found the girl in the car. "In our small community, it really bothers all of us parents as to something like this. It's devastating," said Kiln resident Betsy Nugent.
According to investigators, Cheyenne had been taken from Barker previously by DHS.

The 15 videos were posted online Sunday during the final day of the religion's twice-yearly conference. They show top leaders hearing presentations and discussing topics at meetings from 2007 to 2012.
The Salt Lake City-based Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints says the videos show briefings that senior church leaders receive from religious, political and other experts on a number of topics.
"The purpose is to understand issues that may face the church, and is in pursuit of the obligation church leaders feel to be informed on and have open discussion about current issues," spokesman Eric Hawkins said in a statement.

Among the 28 EDF nuclear power stations at risk: Sizewell B in Suffolk, England.
Among the 28 EDF nuclear power stations at risk: Sizewell B in Suffolk, England.
A new review of the safety of France's nuclear power stations has found that at least 18 of EDF's units are are "operating at risk of major accident due to carbon anomalies."
The review was carried out at the request of Greenpeace France following the discovery of serious metallurgical flaws by French regulators in a reactor vessel at Flamanville, where an EPR plant is under construction.
The problem is that parts of the vessel and its cap contain high levels of carbon, making the metal brittle and potentially subject to catastrophic failure. These key components were provided by French nuclear engineering firm Areva, and forged at its Le Creusot.
"The nature of the flaw in the steel, an excess of carbon, reduces steel toughness and renders the components vulnerable to fast fracture and catastrophic failure putting the NPP at risk of a major radioactive release to the environment", says nuclear safety expert John Large, whose consultancy Large Associates (LA) carried out the Review.
The distressed gambling hub has until the end of Monday to comply with the terms of a $73 million state loan that required the city council to disband the local water utility that serves as collateral for the agreement. Instead, city officials announced their own plan last week that would have the utility buy a closed airfield from the city for about $100 million and asked state officials to wave the terms of the loan.
Moody's Investor Service is not as optimistic. The credit-ratings company said in a report last week that Atlantic City's "impending technical default" is credit negative, and indicates "a disconnection between the city, mayor, and state." The political gridlock puts the city's next bond payment at risk -- $9.4 million due Nov. 4.
Alas, no. Just the opposite. Each part of the FIRE (finance, insurance, real estate) economy is imploding as "modern" finance hits the wall.
Interest rates, for instance, have fallen for three decades...

However, one particularly horrible and non-abstract aspect of these companies' dealings is how they treat migrant workers and the conditions the workers are forced to live in. The Big Ag corporations have thousands of migrant labor camps scattered around the country with thousands of underpaid migrants working at each camp.
When state inspectors visit these camps, they find violations as often as 60 percent of the time. Despite giving citations and ordering the properties to make the necessary changes to comply with the law, the demands are often ignored because inspection agencies have little to no power or means of enforcement.
Comment: Not only are they treated inhumanely, but farm workers are regularly exposed to massive amounts of pesticides causing more chemical-related injuries and illnesses than in any other workforce nationwide and most don't receive adequate medical care.
