Lying cops claim innocent man assaulted them -- secret video proves otherwise

Larry Faulkenberry

In January of last year, Larry Faulkenberry's 16-year-old son decided that he would play a trick on his dad for grounding him. So, he called the Caldwell County Sheriff's Department, and claimed his dad was drunk and waving a gun.

Deputies, responding to the call, arrived to find Faulkenberry entirely compliant, not drunk, and unarmed. He does not even own a gun.

These facts, however, were of no concern to the cops who arrived only to assault, injure, arrest, and lie about Faulkenberry attacking them.

"They yelled 'sheriff's department.' What do you need? I put my hands up. 'Turn around and walk backwards.' I'll stand here, you come here and put handcuffs on me," Faulkenberry said.

Comment: Memo to Faulkenberry's son: This is why you should never call the cops for anything, let alone to play a trick on your dad. Cops are dangerous thugs who cause chaos and mayhem wherever they go.

Brussels 'March Against Fear' cancelled due to overwhelming fear

fear march
Is everyone taking note on how the false flag script is developing? Apparently staged attacks that take place in Europe are followed up by these weird "anti-fear" marches which only serve to bring more attention to the false flag event and state-sponsored "terrorism." It's all part of the "terrorism" propaganda, fear and social engineering that the state is exerting over the masses on their road to their new global order.

The irony of seeing the "march against fear" canceled by "fear" itself only goes to show that there is nothing genuine and organic about this effort. It also shows us that the state, not the people, is controlling these events.

'Taxation is theft' meme goes viral

IRS gold
Sharing memes won't save the world on its own, but it can help to raise awareness about important ideas and get people curious about concepts that they have not considered before. One recent example of this phenomena is how the phrase "taxation is theft" has recently become mainstream thanks to a viral meme campaign.

Hundreds of memes, some that are funny, and some that don't even make sense, relating to the "taxation is theft" theme have littered the Internet in recent weeks; and while some people may be getting tired of them, they are having an incredible impact in raising awareness about the idea.

In fact, a quick look at Google search data shows that the last month has seen a massive spike in online interest in the term and that Web searches for the term are at an all-time high.

Could the second US revolution be starting?

We Will Not Be Disarmed graphic
When the time comes to write the history of the second American revolution - or perhaps the second civil war - no one will be able to say that they didn't see it coming. It has been building day after day on our television screens: A big, sexually active, square-jawed billionaire decides a weekly TV show isn't enough to feed his ego, so he runs for the presidency, getting 24 hour coverage.

Like every media star, he plays to his strengths, leading with a stream-of-consciousness filled with the same dirty words we hear on television, encouraging his followers to attack those who disagree with his plan to 'make America great again'. Almost a century after the rest of the Western World, it is finally possible for a socialist to appear on national television, and the Sanders candidacy has allowed the American left to come out in favor of social democracy. But it has only taken a few months for Trump to push back, calling Bernie Sanders protesters 'Communists' and blaming them for the violence of his own followers, when socialists are by definition against violence, at home and abroad.

The hidden fourth world in first world America

detroit housing
Before George Manuel published The Fourth World: An Indian Reality, the idea that any real differences existed among population groups in fully developed countries was still taboo. At the time, Indigenous rights were still something of a political non-issue, a blemish on a relatively clean looking statistical sheet that First World countries paid lip service to all too infrequently. Since then, an increasing amount of scholarship seeks to understand the differences between Fourth World populations living inside First World countries.

The Fourth World, basically, are populations living within a state who have little or no representation by that state. These populations, from the standpoint of the First World, are generally impoverished and would not fit the criteria for a "First World" country. They are, essentially and literally, the oppressed. It is what we see as the Third World when we are looking at Africa and South America, hidden within the First World just outside our doors. Unfortunately, the Fourth World is growing.

Comment: The US is well on its way to becoming and third world nation. Just look at the dire state of the economy.

A California man accused of plotting to bomb Muslims on their way to worship accepted a plea deal that dropped the most serious charges against him.

William Celli admitted last week that he attempted to violate the free exercise of civil rights and was sentenced to 90 days in a county jail and three years of probation, reported KRON-TV.

Police arrested the 55-year-old Celli on Dec. 20, after witnesses said he yelled, "I'm going to kill you all," outside the Islamic Society of West Contra Costa County.

Detectives searched Celli's home, where they called in a bomb squad to detonate a suspicious device.

Celli posted frequently on his Facebook account, where he complained about Syrian refugees, Democrats and insufficiently conservative Republicans.

Cognitive dissonance: Watch what happens when AIPAC attendees slam Trump's racist comments then learn they were said by Netanyahu

zionism is racism
On Monday, thousands of supporters of Israel filed into the Verizon Center in Washington, DC, to watch the Republican presidential candidates address the American Israel Public Affairs Committee (AIPAC), the most influential arm of the Israel lobby.

The line to get in spanned an entire block and wrapped around the corner, and was the scene of confrontations between conference attendees and an assortment of protesters, some chanting against Israel, others against AIPAC and almost everyone against Donald Trump, the Republican frontrunner whose big speech was just hours away.

It was the perfect opportunity to engage with Israel's most politically active supporters, so I pulled out my camera phone and began asking what they thought of Trump.

Most respondents expressed extremely negative views about the candidate, slamming his racism, xenophobia and incitement to violence.

So I decided to conduct an experiment to test for consistency by attributing racist statements made by Israeli leaders to Trump and asking respondents what they thought of such language.

Comment: What a fine example of how many so-called liberal Jews in the US simply cannot or will not see beyond their own incredibly ingrained biases and programming when it comes to being presented with any negative information regarding Israel, or its leaders. Zionists, in general, will resort to nearly any type of mental gymnastics, justifications, emotionalism, eye-rolling etc. rather than address the possibility that there is something very very wrong occurring in the imploding 'land of the chosen'.

With Brazil at a critical point, who has time for the Olympics?

Luiz Inacio Lula da Silva, the steelworker-turned-president of a booming Brazil, broke into tears when Rio de Janeiro was named to host the 2016 Olympics.

Today, with Brazil immersed in twin political and economic crises, few seem to be thinking about the opening ceremony in Maracana Stadium in 134 days.

Current President Dilma Rousseff is fighting for her political life amid a deep recession, impeachment proceedings, mass protests and a corruption scandal in which the once high-flying Lula, her predecessor and mentor, faces charges.

The plot of the country's political thriller is moving so fast the Brazilian media have barely had time to cover preparations for South America's first Olympics, beyond an outbreak of the Zika virus, blamed for causing brain damage in unborn babies.

It is hard to even predict who will be president of Brazil when the Olympic flame is lit in the legendary Maracana on August 5.

Mirroring our hateful society, Microsoft's new Twitter-bot goes full-on Nazi in a matter of 24 hours

tay tweet
Anytime there's a new development in robotics or artificial intelligence, popular culture almost instantly regurgitates the Skynet Terminator narrative. To wit, when Anti-Media reported on a new robot getting pushed around by its handlers, even we couldn't resist alluding to the coming robot apocalypse. The machine uprising is so ingrained in our psyche that we may actually manufacture the very nightmare we fear.

The newest chapter in the uncanny valley of relationships between humans and robots involves a chatterbot, an AI speech program, whose substrate of choice (or Microsoft's choice) is social media. Its name is Tay, a Twitter bot owned and developed by Microsoft. The purpose of Tay is to foster "conversational understanding." Unfortunately, this understanding quickly turned into trolling, and within 24 hours Tay went full Nazi, spewing racist, anti-semitic and misogynistic tweets.

Hawaii passes resolution moving towards decriminalization of all drugs

hawaii coastline
Following Portugal's model, Hawai'i could become the first state in the U.S. to decriminalize all drugs โ€” including cocaine and even heroin.

"[D]espite a longstanding policy that enforces illicit drug prohibition and imposes some of the world's harshest penalties for drug possession and sales, illicit drug use in the United States has been increasing," states a resolution that passed, amended by the Hawai'i House Judiciary Committee on Thursday.

Now that it's been approved, the study's findings will be due later this year,"no later than 20 days prior" to the convening of the legislature's 2017 session.

Comment: The War on Drugs is an abject failure and has left ruined lives and broken families in its wake. Don't double down if a policy is ineffective. Try something new.
