A woman says she was slugged in the face by a racist lunatic on the subway - all because she asked him to stop "manspreading."

The aftermath of Thursday's violent exchange was caught on video as a good Samaritan tries to defend the woman and usher her violent attacker off the train.

The victim, Sam Saia, said she was riding the N train through Bensonhurst while on her way to work in Manhattan when the man sat down and started overcrowding her around 7:45 a.m.

"He proceeded to press me against the wall and man spread me excessively," she wrote on Facebook after the incident.

"When I asked him to give me room, he yelled 'B-ch, you ain't nothing! I've raped white b-ches like you, f-ing c-t! You ain't nothing, you f-ing b-ch!'"

The woman said she put in her earbuds and tried to ignore the raging man as he continued his tirade.

Exposing the breadth of pedophilia across the United States, three Ohio pastors have been indicted on charges of sex-trafficking children. A federal grand jury indicted the Rev. Cordell Jenkins, the Rev. Anthony Haynes and the Rev. Kenneth Butler on conspiracy to sex-traffic children. The three men have all plead not guilty, according to the Associated Press.

The superseding indictment alleges that beginning in June 2014, the three men "conspired and agreed with each other to knowingly recruit, entice, harbor, transport, provide, obtain, maintain, patronize, and solicit" a girl who was 14 years old at the time, as well as other minors to engage in paid sex acts, according to the Toledo Blade.

If convicted, prosecutors will seek life in prison for the men, Michael Freeman, an assistant U.S. attorney, told the Blade.

Cops tase 86 y.o. dementia patient, sending him to the ICU for weeks

cops tase old man
After a month of seeking justice for 86-year-old Albert Chatfield-who was needlessly tasered by cops to the point of being hospitalized in ICU for weeks-the family and the elderly man with dementia finally have some closure. On Friday, the city noted that Chatfield will receive a $900,000 payout-one of the largest settlements in the history of South Carolina related to a police taser-and the video showing the unnecessary assault was finally released.

The incident happened on the morning of October 16 after Chatfield had an apparent episode due to his dementia and led police on a brief low-speed chase. After Chatfield stopped, he got out of his car and put his hands above his head. However, the 86-year-old man then began to back up-a move police seemingly feared-so a taser was deployed.

Chatfield immediately collapsed as the jolt from the taser completely incapacitated the 86-year-old man. When he fell, he smashed his head on to the pavement, broke his nose and began to experience life-threatening bleeding on his brain. He was rushed to the hospital where he would spend weeks in the ICU.

American shoppers still haven't paid off their debt from last Christmas

As the holiday season approaches, the pressure to spend spikes. This year, gift-buying Americans plan to spend $660 on average.

That's according to new data from NerdWallet's 2017 Consumer Holiday Shopping Report, which analyzed spending and behavior trends of more than 2,000 Americans aged 18 and over.

And holiday-induced debt is a growing problem. Although survey respondents say they plan to spend roughly the same amount as they spent last year, 24 percent of shoppers say they overspent in 2016, while 27 percent admit to not making a budget at all.

Even a budget is only a good start.

"There's this myth that planning ahead and budgeting always ensures you don't overspend. But in reality, creating and even sticking to a budget won't make you immune to holiday debt," Courtney Jespersen, a consumer savings expert at NerdWallet, says in the survey. "It's so important to set a realistic ceiling for your spending."

Comment: Or have a gift-free Christmas.

For years there has been an ongoing debate about the levels of lead that have been found in the drinking water in Flint, Michigan, but recent studies have shown that water conditions are just as bad in many other areas throughout the country.

In fact, Reuters recently published neighborhood-level blood lead testing results from 34 states, as well as Washington DC, which were collected by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC). The results showed that 3,810 neighborhood areas have levels of lead that are at least double those seen in Flint. Close to half of these sites had levels that were actually four times as high as those in Flint.

Some of the areas shown to be affected the most were parts of Pennsylvania, New York, Baltimore and parts of Ohio. Researchers noted that areas which were heavily industrialized before lead was recognized as a problem have become hotspots for contamination. A color-coded map identifying many of these hotspots was published with the report, showing some of the highest levels of contamination in Savannah, Georgia; Brooklyn, New York; and even as far north as Rutland, Vermont.

Police can request your DNA without your knowledge or consent by way of ancestry websites

Sending a sample of your DNA through the post may seem like a harmless and novel way of tracing your ancestry, and millions of Americans have already done so, but there is a more sinister side to this relatively new enterprise.

If you're suspected of a crime police can, if they have a warrant, request access to your DNA profile from both the Ancestry and 23andMe websites. The latter has received five requests for customer information from law enforcement, although the company says it didn't comply with any of these requests.

"As the 5 requests resulting in zero information provided indicates, we resist all of these requests. For perspective, 5 requests with over 3 million customers is 0.0002% worth of requests in 11 years. That's less than rare," 23andMe spokesman Andy Kill told RT.com.

Though the company hasn't ruled out providing information to authorities in the future. "We would always review a request and take it on a case-by-case basis," privacy officer Kate Black told told WJAX on Thursday.

A Baltimore homicide detective was pronounced dead Thursday as cops continued a dragnet for his "cold, callous killer."

The slain officer, identified as homicide Detective Sean Suiter, was an 18-year veteran of the Baltimore police force, Baltimore Police Commissioner Kevin Davis said in a news conference. He was also a former naval officer.

The detective and his partner were in the area Wednesday investigating a 2016 murder when they observed a man engaging in what they believed to be "suspicious behavior," Davis said.

Dressed in a full suit and tie with his badge displayed, Suiter, 43, approached the suspect and a confrontation occurred.

The detective was shot once in the head and his partner, who was nearby, called for police and medics on the radio, Davis said. The shooting happened in a troubled area of Baltimore that is grappling with high crime rates.

Sweden: Crimes on record high years after refugee crisis

The number of such crimes as sexual assault or mugging has reached its highest level in Sweden over more than a decade, a governmental survey says. The major increase in the crime rates comes in the years following the refugee crisis.

The number of Swedes who fell victims of some or all types of crime that are collectively defined as "crimes against individuals," has sharply increased over the last two years, the National Security Survey (NTU) conducted by the Swedish Crime Prevention Council (Bra) says. Crimes against individuals involve assault, threats, sexual offenses, mugging, fraud and harassment under the Bra classification.

According to the survey, 15.6 percent of the Swedish population were subjected to some or all of these types of crime in 2016, which is more than two percent higher than in the previous year. The Bra, which is a Swedish government agency that acts as a research center under the Justice Ministry, notes that crime rate concerning these types of offenses remained relatively stable between 2005 and 2014 and stood at 11-13 percent.

University student radio hosts suspended for saying "tranny" on air, falsely accused of violating FCC rules

The University of Minnesota-Morris has suspended a student radio show from the air after they used the word "tranny" during one of their shows.

The radio show, which goes by the name "Deplorable Radio" was yanked off in the air mid-broadcast over their use of the word "tranny." A video recording of the moment was published online following the incident.

"You know, you can definitely, you see one tranny that's trying to punch someone," one student said during the broadcast. "You know it's automatically that one guy that you know I'm talking about. I bet you know. I'm not going to dox anybody and name them on air. But you two know if I say the tranny who looks like he's going to punch someone. Yep."

"About fifteen minutes later," host Brandon Albrecht told The College Fix, "the student station manager came into the studio with a UMMPD officer and told us to leave. She said we had violated FCC law by saying a word that was never allowed on air, 'tranny.' So we packed up and left the studio."


Comment: After acknowledging that they didn't violate FCC rules, the university added another charge:
The manager, however, cited a new set of alleged violations by Albrecht and Lehmann, such as "not playing at least 2 new songs per hour."

Albrecht believes his show was subject to a double standard because "other shows do not follow every station rule either and they are still on the air." He told The Fix that "had it not been for our language," the show wouldn't have been suspended.

Asked if the university had suspended the radio show over the word "tranny," spokesperson Melissa Vangsness told The Fix in an email: "The situation the radio station is dealing with relates to compliance with DJ expectations and station standards."

Albrecht said that he and Lehmann refuse to resign and want to "go out with a bang and make the executive staff hold a ridiculous vote for the whole station to kick us out for saying 'tranny.'"

"It is a shame," Albrecht wrote, "that our freedom of speech is being curtailed today in the very place it should be most free, on college campuses."

What gun control advocates really want: Boston Globe suggests it's time to confiscate millions of firearms

gun control
Well, if there's one thing we can say about this Boston Globe op-ed, it's honest. I don't mean honest regarding facts or anything, but honest in detailing what gun control advocates really, really want: confiscation. In light of the recent mass shootings in Texas and Las Vegas, the usual characters stepped out in front. The National Rifle Association is evil, we need more background checks, and it's the Republicans' fault. The rancor lasted a few weeks, but as in every case, we return to reality: guns are here to stay. Guns are part of American culture. And no new gun control laws are going to get passed. Period.

Why? There's no need. In fact, none of the proposals the anti-Gun Left pushes would stop any future mass shootings. None. Background checks? Stephen Paddock, who committed the brutal shooting in Las Vegas passed all of his background checks, had zero run-ins with the law, and no history of mental illness. Devin Kelley, an Air Force veteran who served a year in jail for domestic violence, should have been barred from owning guns after his conviction. He was court martialed in 2012 for beating his wife and stepson, the latter of which suffered a fractured skull. In 2014, he was given a bad-conduct discharge. How did he get weapons? The Air Force did not forward his criminal record to the FBI to be added into the NICS system. This shooting could have been prevented. Also, it was an NRA member who stopped the carnage from being even more widespread. Stephen Willeford lived near the church where Kelley opened fire and was made aware of the attack by his daughter. He ran barefoot across the street and engaged Kelley with his AR-15 rifle.
