The U.S. Capitol Police has investigated close to 1,000 threats directed at lawmakers in the first half of this year, a top House official said in a letter made public Friday.

Paul Irving, the House sergeant at arms, stated that the Capitol Police looked into about 950 threatening messages aimed at members of the House "because of their profile as elected representatives or members of Congress." That's already more than the approximately 902 threatening messages investigated by the Capitol Police in all of 2016.

The increased number "constitutes the new daily threat environment faced by Member[s] of Congress," Irving wrote in a letter dated June 21 to Federal Election Commission Chairman Steven Walther.

Irving provided the statistics as part of a request that the FEC issue guidance that would allow lawmakers to use campaign funds to pay for security systems in their homes.

Comment: Signs of the frustration of the public and the manipulators of decisions.

The BBC wants to make you believe that pedophilia is acceptable

The British Broadcasting Corporation (BBC) is playing with fire by allowing an anonymous author to publish articles on its platform that aim to minimize the utter depravity of pedophilia. Similar to what the far left publication Salon tried to do several years back (along with The New York Times), the BBC seems to agree with this author that pedophilia isn't necessarily a disorder to be treated with disdain, but rather a sexual orientation like homosexuality that simply requires "help."

It wouldn't be the first time that the BBC has entered the ring on the wrong side of the issue, having once employed a popular television personality by the name of Jimmy Savile who was reported to have sexually abused at least 500 young boys and girls, as well as engaged in necrophilia, or sex with dead bodies.

Comment: This may be the principal aim of the nihilistic postmodernism movement being propagandized en-masse for decades: to create mass acceptance for the abomination that is pedophilia.

While any normally functioning person would recognize pedophilia for what it is: disgusting, traumatizing (to the children, not the predator perpetrators), barbarism that is primarily carried out by psychopaths in various positions of power, postmodernism seeks to accept every "different" way of life, regardless of how repugnant or barbaric it is. Such an ideology is, of course, a playground for psychopaths, who can then guilt-trip people into accepting their destructive, predatory ways, against all rationality and common sense.

Of course, despite the postmodernistic nonsense being promulgated by the BBC, the reality is that there are global pedophile rings run by very powerful people and that these pedophile rings are destroying our children in a multitude of ways: Psychopath Jimmy Savile was not the only one, of course:

The number of people projected to die at the hands of police in 2017 is set to close in on 1,000 for the third year running, the Washington Post says in an annual study. Of the 492 people killed by police so far, nearly a quarter are black men.

The Washington Post, which has tracked fatal shootings and killings by police since 2015 through its 'Fatal Force' project, published its half-year findings on Saturday. Despite the massive backlash against police brutality led by the Black Lives Matter movement, shootings continue largely unabated, the newly-released figures indicate.

While the number of unarmed people killed by police since January has slightly decreased in comparison to the same period last year, the difference remains within the margin of error. In 2016, a total of 34 people were shot dead by police from January till July, while this year the count is seven people fewer.

"Credible" evidence indicates that Special Air Service troops executed unarmed civilians during night raids in Afghanistan and doctored after-action reports to shift blame onto their Afghan partners, the Times claims, citing military and defense sources.

The series of killings allegedly took place during the final stages of Britain's involvement in the Afghan war, the Times reported, citing a major Royal Military Police (RMP) investigation codenamed Operation Northmoor. Part of the RMP inquiry is said to have focused on a specific SAS squadron dubbed a "rogue" unit.

Sources with detailed knowledge concerning the investigation said there is "strong evidence" that unarmed Afghan civilians suspected of being Taliban militants were executed during night raids on their homes.

Passengers could soon find that it's standing room only in the cabins of their budget airliners - that's if VivaColombia founder William Shaw gets his way.

The idea of removing seats so that passengers can stand on short-haul flights has been mooted for years. Now, the CEO of the Colombian airliner is hoping to finally get the plan off the ground.

"There are people out there right now researching whether you can fly standing up - we're very interested in anything that makes travel less expensive," Shaw told the Miami Herald.

"Who cares if you don't have an inflight entertainment system for a one-hour flight? Who cares that there aren't marble floors... or that you don't get free peanuts?"

It's all 'legal': Cops repeatedly punch homeless man in the head during violent arrest

As news media organizations attempt to make sense of allegations of "excessive force" by police officers towards the public, experts in law enforcement are routinely consulted. One such expert, Vincent Hill, claims officers have the legal right to punch seemingly compliant suspects in the head — repeatedly.

Hill was asked to review the complaint filed against Atlanta police officer Quinton Green who was caught on camera beating a homeless man in the head. Ricky Williams was laying face down with Green sitting atop him, knee in his back, while another officer was seen controlling his legs.

Hill says that while he can fully understand why the public would conclude the use of force was excessive, the former police officer concluded he did nothing wrong, legally.
I can clearly see how the public would think it's bad...They see a police officer with his knee in someone's back and he's punching him. But here's what I saw. Someone who's resisting arrest. You can see a handcuff on his left hand. You can see he's not putting his other hand behind his back. You don't know all the circumstances that led to what you saw in that video.

Janet Yellen says a new financial crisis probably won't happen - But The Bank of International Settlements says one could soon hit 'with a vengeance'

Janet Yellen
Federal Reserve Chair Janet Yellen is quite convinced that the United States will not experience another financial crisis for a very long time to come. In fact, she is publicly saying that she does not believe that another one will happen "in our lifetimes". But there are other central bankers that see things very differently. In fact, a new report that was just released by the Bank for International Settlements is warning that a new financial crisis could soon strike "with a vengeance". So who is right?

It would be nice if it turned out that Yellen was right. Nobody should want to see a repeat of what happened in 2008, and Yellen seems extremely confident that she will never see another crisis of that magnitude...

A woman who told Henderson police she slit her boyfriend's throat to dissuade him from a suicide attempt is facing an attempted murder charge, an arrest warrant shows.

On June 16, a man flagged down a passing motorist on the Boulder Highway overpass that connects to U.S. Highway 95, told the driver he had been stabbed and then passed out. Officers from the Henderson Police Department responded and found the man's girlfriend, Elisa Gilles-Parekh, also had arrived at the scene, according to her arrest warrant.

Giles-Parekh told police her boyfriend was stabbed when the homeless couple was robbed by an unknown suspect at their camp, the warrant said.

When her boyfriend regained consciousness at Sunrise Hospital and Medical Center, he said Giles-Parekh cut his neck with a razor blade during an argument. The man received 20 stitches, the warrant states, and told police he did not want to press charges against her.

Police investigating the couple's campsite could not find the razor blade, but they did find a suicide note signed by the man on a concrete wall. He told police he wrote the note at an earlier date and was not feeling suicidal.
