A "Zero Tolerance" Police State
Submitted by Nick Giambruno via InternationalMan.com,
I’ve almost become numb to horrendous videos like these...
It seems like a new shocking police abuse video sweeps the nation almost every week. These viral videos help bring a small dose of accountability to government employees. And they don’t like it one bit.
The unjustified violence isn’t what really upsets them. They’re upset because they can’t operate with near total impunity anymore. The Internet and proliferation of smartphones have made it much harder for the government and mainstream media to sweep inconvenient incidents under the rug.
This is why some states, most notoriously Florida, are abusing outdated eavesdropping laws to harass people who attempt to film the police.
It’s all part of a long trend. The government will always try to shield itself from the fallout from its behavior. Another favorite tactic is to simply declare troublesome information “classified” or to withhold it because of “national security,” a vague and misused term.
It’s an upside down situation. The government can monitor almost any aspect of the average citizen’s life whenever it wants. But it’s difficult to impossible for the average citizen to monitor the government. In a free society, the opposite would be true.
The Camera Is the New Gun
Trying to prohibit people from recording cops is a desperate move. And I don’t think it’s practical.
Nearly everyone has a phone that can record a decent quality video, and it only takes seconds to upload a video onto the Internet. Once it’s there, it’s hard for anyone to make it disappear.
Even a police incident in a small town no one has ever heard of can become a national news phenomenon. This has made it harder for the government and mainstream media to shape the narrative.
It’s also why Judge Andrew Napolitano calls the camera the new gun.
This scenario played out recently at Spring Valley High School in South Carolina. A teenage girl refused to put her cell phone away. The teacher asked her to leave the classroom. She didn’t. So the school called in its resource officer.
“Resource officer” strikes me as a strange term. As far as I can tell, it’s just a police officer stationed at a school. Why not call it what it is?
Some bureaucrat likely invented the term to sanitize a situation that reasonable people find disturbing. It’s unnerving to think about heavily armed government employees interacting with your children every day they go to school (which looks more and more like a prison). “Resource officer” certainly makes the whole thing sound friendlier.
But back to the incident in South Carolina…
The resource officer showed up and asked the student to leave. When she refused, he wrapped his arm around her neck in a headlock. The struggle tipped over the girl’s desk and she fell to the ground. Then the officer dragged the girl and threw her across the classroom.
It’s a barbaric and unjustifiable way to treat a young girl. But it’s hardly unique or surprising.
In my experience, U.S. police are much more aggressive than police in the rest of the world. I noticed it when I started traveling many years ago. I’ve also noticed that the average citizen is more likely to run into the police in the U.S. Both of these trends are accelerating.
This is especially true for young people in public schools. No other country comes close to having the same level of police presence in schools. And no other country criminalizes as many everyday activities.
According to the LA Times there are now over 14,000 resource officers in schools across the U.S.
The explosion in the number of cops embedded in schools started in the 1990s. That’s when “zero tolerance” madness really started to sweep the country. It was a side effect of the ludicrous War on Some Drugs.
At first, these school cops only got involved with things like illegal drugs, gangs, and serious violence. Over time, there’s been a predictable mission creep. Schools were tempted to use the officers in more and more situations. At this point, they’re effectively enforcing school rules. Horseplay and disobeying the teacher now lead to arrests and criminal records rather than in-school discipline, like detention.
South Carolina has a “disturbing school” law, which makes it a crime "to interfere with or to disturb in any way or in any place the students or teachers of any school or college in this state.” The government can fine up to $1,000 or jail for 90 days anyone who breaks the law.
The law’s vague and subjective wording effectively allows the police to harass students whenever the school administration asks…or whenever they want to. This is the law that gave the high school in South Carolina the pretext to call its resource officer to deal (violently, if needed) with the girl who wouldn’t put away her cell phone.
Seven other states already have similar laws. I’d bet the ongoing “zero tolerance” psychosis helps push many more through.
A Harbinger of Things to Come
Unfortunately, most people don’t even question whether there should be a resource officer in each and every school in the first place. Most passively accept it as an undisputed necessity. If they want change, they usually want a more aggressive police presence in schools.
I doubt the attitudes and mindsets that have fostered this situation will change for the better anytime soon. I expect the police state trend will only accelerate in the U.S.
How will the government pay for all this police activity? I’d bet civil asset forfeitures will continue to play a big role.
Dozens of government agencies now have the power to lock up all your U.S. bank accounts, your U.S. brokerage accounts, and even your home. They only need the flimsiest hint that something might be wrong.
It doesn’t matter if the underlying allegation is about taxes, drugs, food safety, the environment, or something else. It doesn’t even take a real allegation to make it happen. A single government employee’s suspicion or ill will is enough to push the bureaucratic launch button and start your nightmare.
They act without warning, and they can strip away all of your assets without waiting for a hearing, a trial, or any other token of due process.
If it’s in the U.S., it’s theirs, whenever they say it is.
Yes, after they strike, you can go to court to get your property back. But how will you hire a lawyer if they’ve frozen your bank account? And how will you pay your bills while the legal process grinds on?
Forget what you learned in civics class. Sometimes a government agency just wants your property.
As the Institute for Justice has stated, “Under modern civil forfeiture laws…filling law enforcement’s coffers is often the primary purpose of the seizure.”
The government can easily pick up any assets you keep in the U.S.
The Ultimate Protection from an Out of Control Government
If you’re alarmed by the growing threat from your own government to your personal freedom and financial health, I don’t blame you.
You’ve seen the crowded parade of new laws, taxes, and regulations. Many more are in the works.
In fact, as financial resources shrink and government deficits rise, I’m afraid the grab for money will become more desperate. Governments will go beyond taxation and reach into checking, savings, and even Grandma’s retirement account for help.
Events around the world show cash strapped governments are more than willing to use capital controls, income tax hikes (to rates as high as 75% in France), debt monetization, nationalization of private pensions, bail-ins and bank deposit confiscations, and other ways to grab your money.
No matter how safe your government says your money is, how comfortable can you really be if it’s all in one country?
Most people understand that it’s foolish to keep all their eggs in one basket. But they don’t apply the principle all that well. Portfolio diversification isn’t just about investing in multiple stocks or in multiple asset classes. Real diversification - the kind that keeps you safe - means holding assets in multiple countries so you’re not overexposed to economic and political risks in any one of them.

"Unfortunately, most people don’t even question whether there should be a resource officer in each and every school in the first place. Most passively accept it as an undisputed necessity. If they want change, they usually want a more aggressive police presence in schools."
Exactly right. I went to highschool in the early '80's. There was no police presence at the school, and anyone could walk in or out without going through security. Treat people like criminals, and criminals you shall have. MSM has convinced America that our schools are either under seige from within or without. They have it half-right. The schools are under seige from our own police state.
Well, I went to school in the 70's and the reason "resource officers" weren't there in the 80's when you were there is we chased them off ;-)
I went to high school in the 70's as well. Resource Officers weren't needed because the kids didn't act like this...
http://youtu.be/k7n7bY743zI
I went to a school on the "southside" of St.Pete where they acted exactly like that. One of them beat the living shit out of the dean of boys with a pair of nunchakas for no reason outside of just being an asshole.
He was dealt with, by us...he never came back.
I don't know when that "informal justice" STOPPED happening but it was after I graduated.
I recall acting up on campus once after a big football victory. Our coach saw me and raced over to put me against the gym wall in full view of my teammates. He stuck a finger in my face as he said " Act like a winner, not a cocky idiot ". As he released his grip on me, my father was walking up after arriving to drive me home. He told the coach that if I ever acted less than a sportsman, coach had his permission to knock me on my ass.
I Never acted the fool again!
Classic story, Alaric. Trusting other people with teaching your kids good values has been removed entirely from "society." It's only "follow the script, OR ELSE!" anymore.
As a kid, I knew something was wrong regarding the concept of the police being called (after the fact) when a fight broke out. Did not make sense. That's about the only time the po-po were involved though, and they certainly did not arrest a kid. You got put in the back of the cop car and driven to your house, where your ma would give you a whuppin. Then I remember seeing all the authoritarian "zero tolerance" shit. Did not make sense. We didn't have "resource officer"s at the elementary and middle skool levels in the 90s.
When I was in hi-skool the year after nine-elevs, we had a "resource officer." Good ol' Neil - he was my cross country coach too, an aging boomer. The gnarliest thing to happen on campus was probably when my buddy Ken got sold fake weed on school grounds, flipped a button, and whacked that theiving Mexican fella on the head with his skateboard.
The next year, Neil was replaced by a gangsta quasi-Mexican guy, "Will," presumably meant to handle and "be cool" with the kids in the new millennium. Everyone hated Will.
The hi-skool has always had gates like every other hi-skool, but the things weren't locked down before and after skool hours. You could go in at midnight and grab shit from your locker if you forgot something. There were no cameras either. These days the gates are always locked before and after skool hours, and there are lots of cameras.
Kids' freedom to live and play is a fading memory of a time gone by.
for those of us starting high school in the coming years, the idea of a resource officer is very comforting.
not only are they there to keep the peace and make the school a safe, secure, and nurturing environment where learners can thrive, they are also a *resource*
hugs,
the little children of america
also, they are an *officer*
Being a corn-fed middle class white boy raised in the burbs, I went through school seeing mostly the good side of things, occasionally the bad.
BACK THEN YOU COULD THROW KIDS OUT OF SCHOOL WHO WERE CONSTANTLY DISRUPTIVE OR DEMONSTRATED VIOLENT TENDENCES.
Not any more. You gotta keep those little fuckers in the classroom no matter how bad they act or how much they fuck it up for the ones that are there to do what they should be doing- learning.
I can fight the influence of stupidity like Common Core (my kids required little more than my agreement that some of that shit is just idiotic, wrong or biased, as they had already suspected on their own). But if the teacher can't get through the material because they're playing social worker to a small minority of kids who drag down the rest, there is no way to make up the lost ground.
FUCK 'NO CHILD LEFT BEHIND'. Some kids should be left behind. And the rest should SEE IT HAPPEN SO THEY UNDERSTAND THERE ARE CONSEQUENCES. Is it any wonder so many middle class families bend themselves over backwards financiall to put their kids in private school? Is it any wonder so many parents want school vouchers and charter schools in bad municipalities? They want the best they can get for their kids and they don't want somebody else's problem child fucking it up for their own kids. And I can't blame them.
Addition by subtraction is a time-tested winning policy. It's the alternative to 'least common denominator' which is what's currently being forced upon them.
It's been a long time, but I still remember vividly how much I hated high school.
That said, you're exactly right that some kids just plain don't belong there. Cut 'em loose and let 'em see how they fare on the outside.
An anecdote-
There was a 17 year-old in my 9th grade algebra class. He wasn't a troublemaker, but he obviously didn't give a flyin' fuck about the curricula on offer.
He'd be 62 or so now, and last time I saw him (10 plus years ago) he was making high-end jewelry and driving a Lamborghini.
One of my best friends in HS was a kid who felt similarly- not really into the whole "structured curriculum" thing or, for that matter "school" in general. He was one test away from failing trig and couldn't have cared less. I bet him I could beat his score on the final exam (tricking him into passing, basically). I got a 96.... he scored 100.
That son of a bitch now owns a chain of restaurants called Jimmy Johns. You might have heard of them if you're from around my neck of the woods. Don't know if he drives a Lambo but he does alright.
I joke with him "see how important passing trig was?"
I was just a little south of you, nmewn, in Punta Gorda during high school in the 70's. The only time we ever saw cops on school grounds were during sporting events, mainly for traffic control.
Well, back then, the coaches kept everyone in line. And if they didn't get the message across, your parents would be called and then it was big, big trouble for you.
Go, T-birds.
In the 60's the coaches would settle every problem with a giant wooden paddle. You were in pain the rest of the day.
Horrifying chimps
Yep.In the 70's we ran them off or they got a contact high from us by standing outside the bathroom door.
The ultimate patriotic act is to invest the life savings in Gold & Silver, which does honor to real money, shows disdain for paper merchants who rule the central banks, and forces nations to put forth honest sound money in usage. It is important to recall the 9/11 event, however based in reality, not the official story. Honor should be given to the 2500 victims of the mass murder event. The official story makes far less sense than the Kennedy assassination, while the two events appear to be front and back bookends of the same Fascist takeover of the United States Govt.
The Patriot Act was a fascist manifesto, much like the Enabling Act installed in Germany over seven decades ago. The two acts have a 90% correlation and overlap, yet the American public remains largely in the dark on the similarity in template. The USCongress passed the controversial Patriot Act, which has totally opposite direction to patriotism, under threat of anthrax in their ventilation system (rumored to be engineered by the FBI). The creation of the Homeland Security Agency should ring loud gongs about the Gestapo similarities. That the US & London & Swiss bankers are fascists with roots to 1930 fascists should also be brought to public attention. The US bankers on Wall Street actually had loans extended to the German Nazis, a fact the public seems to overlook. Operation Paperclip, which opened the US gates to the several hundred bankers, scientists, and industrial captains should have been a wakeup call to Americans, but they remain asleep. Imagine a nation that makes a mockery of citizens seeking the truth on the event, calling them disparagingly the Truthers. Recall that truth is the enemy of fascist regimes, and the early victim of any war.
The 9/11 event was the coming out party for the American Fascists. It was also a complex sequence of criminal events, to abrogate $230 billion in Russian bonds, to wipe clean the Black Eagle Fund on gold obligations. But in the immediate, it was a bank heist. Few Americans realize that the World Trade Center housed the largest bank in the Western world. Thus the object of the bank robbery, where $100bn in bearer bonds were stolen, $100bn in diamonds were stolen, and $100bn in gold bullion was stolen. For reasons tied to national security, no investigations or claims are permitted. It was also an opportunity to test out some nano-technology and extreme micro nuclear demolition methods. Over 2000 people perished on that day. Around 200 police, firemen, and emergency medical professionals also died on that day. The event sealed the fate of the nation, to become a fascist enclave, the exceptional nation, the home of the new brown shirts.
Much credit is due to the courageous and diligent scientific groups like AE1000, the Architects & Engineers, who have contradicted the official nonsensical silly reports which serve as the Official 9/11 Commission report, far more vacant and illogical and baseless than the Warren Report of 1963. Both were hastily produced under political pressure, both with Papa Bush fingerprints at the crime scene. The group of scientists have produced a powerful body of evidence in dispute, yet over half the US nation believes the fairy tale in the official USGovt story. It was a fascist takeover of the USGovt and establishment of the banking system as the power center.
All manner of war and sanctions cannot prevent the removal of the USDollar from its global currency reserve privilege. Too much abuse from violent war, sponsored terrorism, $trillion gifts to bankers, backdoor bailouts to bankers, has caused a global upheaval and resistance. Sanctions are the device used against nations which oppose the USDollar in usage, primarily in crude oil payments. The USGovt has refused to liquidate the big banks, which have served as the Western seat of power and pilferage. The series of sanctions have backfired badly. The obstacles to gas pipelines cannot be maintained. The movement against the corrupt toxic USDollar has gathered tremendous momentum. It has an African monetary policy attached, an incredibly destructive policy, and worse, it is called stimulus. The return of the Gold Standard is inevitable. The big question is how much destruction the USGovt, its powerful military, and its subversive security agencies will permit before the legitimate monetary system is put in place. The path seems clear, that the legitimate system will first arrive on the trade front, deposing the USTreasury Bill in back pressure like excrement from the global bowels.
THE PLETHORA OF BIG CLUES
The big clues are so many as to be astounding in volume. The multiple detonations on the side facades of the World Trade Center buildings should bring suspicion. The quick 11-second collapse of the giant building was consistent with free fall, in contradiction of the silly pancake theory of a sequence of staged collapses. Basic physics should bring suspicion. The Jackass surmises that not 25% of Americans took physics in high school (or did not sleep through it). The thermite explosive residue laced all through the debris should bring suspicion. The melting of structural steel by mere jet fuel (as claimed) should bring suspicion. The Jackass surmises that not 25% of Americans took chemistry in high school (or did not sleep through it). The disintegration of the antenna tower of the WTCenter section should bring suspicion. The twenty-three trucks moving something en masse (like gold bars) after the initial aircraft impact on the buildings, but before the buildings collapsed, should bring suspicion. The obstacles to include the New York Police Dept captain’s testimony of multiple explosions in the WTCenter basement after the initial aircraft impact, for the official commission hearing, The twenty-three trucks moving something en masse (gold bars) after the initial aircraft impact on the buildings, but before the buildings collapsed, should bring suspicion. The melting of hundreds of car and truck engines in the WTCenter vicinity should bring suspicion. The migration of Cantor Fitzgerald bond database records to New Jersey three months earlier should bring suspicion. The collapse of Building #7 without impact of any kind should bring suspicion.
The clear shape charge cuts to the giant World Trade Center steel beams (seen above), evidence of demolition, should bring suspicion. All workers at the site were aware of the demolition and obvious shape charge cuts. The gag orders on several dozen air traffic controllers should bring suspicion. Desperation followed the event, to dismiss alternative explanations as unpatriotic. The reporting on Australian television news networks of the 9/11 crash at the World Trade Center a full 15 minutes before the event even occurred should bring suspicion. The alerting of American news networks of an imminent terrorist event before the WTCenter crash should bring suspicion. With 99.8% certainty in the Jackass mind, it was an inside job to convert the United States of America into a fascist nation, to move the National Security Agency into a strong position of power, and to put the CIA in control of the White House. It was an event with at least five principal groups involved. The United States has been transformed into a giant police state. The event was a celebration of fascism, a magnificent bank heist and bond sealed deal, and climax of the narco lineage of presidents. The event left an indelible imprint that will surely lead to a systemic failure.
The initial CNN reporting by Ian McIntyre of a missile of some sort on 9/11, with no debris on the Pentagon lawn, should bring suspicion. The absence of any commercial aircraft parts like wings or fuselage or seats or even the black box on the Pentagon lawn should bring suspicion (see the lawn site above). The spherical damage inside the Pentagon wall, plus all internal fragments pushed out 30-50 meters should bring suspicion. The incredibly moronic story of an entire commercial aircraft being vaporized should bring suspicion. The removal of nearby video camera tapes from the Pentagon area should bring suspicion. The shorting of airline stocks on a broad basis before the event and volume should bring suspicion. That hole aint from a commercial aircraft, whose fuselage is easily twice the diameter. Despite all the big clues, which would result in considerable reasonable doubt in any grand jury court room session, the pattern is clear for over half the nation. They accept the official story, then work backwards, dismissing evidence, ignoring the cornucopia of data that contradicts the 9/11 Commission Report. It is a fairy tale and fascist concoction and pure drivel.
KENNEDY KILLED TO DISCARD GOLD STANDARD
KENNEDY KILLED TO PLANT FASCIST SEEDS
The theory is simple, makes sense, and is logical. The US Leadership turned fascist long ago, and took control of the USGovt at the highest levels of the government. They dominated totally after JFKennedy was removed in 1963. Kennedy wanted to disband the CIA and tried to re-install the Silver Certificates as currency instead of Federal Reserve Notes as currency. Notice the string of consistent fascist regimes supported by the US in the last few decades, always the fascist brutal regimes, pitted against the communists. One could produce a list of 20 such nations, many in South America. The US has been deeply committed to some war, much further and deeper than the Cold War, for a period including decades. The true ugly fact is that the fascists conquered the US through the White House coup d’etat, the narco security agencies, and the controlled oligopoly of media networks. The reality goes beyond 9/11, as the USGovt has been under fascist control for 50 years. The death of Kennedy marks the beginning of the fascist lineage of USGovt and its selected presidents. Obama reigns over the systemic breakdown, for which he surely gave a few pushes. The USTreasury Bond market is fracturing on his watch, while the police state is being installed on his watch.
Nixon made a deal with the devil to cooperate with the coup d’etat and in return dropped the Gold Standard. Recall that Nixon was dead political timber until revived by a cooperative press. Nixon then established the NSA, set up as the uber-Gestapo. The war theme has become part of the US social, commercial, and sport fabric. Even the USOpen tennis tournament had an honor guard and giant flag folding ceremony. The regular war footing is evident with every hot spot on earth, with 170 USMilitary bases scattered around the globe. The military drones killing civilians (in foreign nations and soon possibly inside the US), pervasive eavesdropping (overseas and at home), constant high security alert, the alienation will all nations including allies, the airport checks, the difficulty to renew passports, the theft of private accounts, these are the tell-tale signals of a fascist regime in power. Freedom of speech and assembly have been shattered, as has due process. The treatment of Occupy Wall Street as terrorists, the torture in Guantanimo, the viruses hidden in vaccines, the Monsanto chromosome devices with food, the constant propaganda, the chemtrails in the sky, the contamination of groundwater systems from Halliburton fracking, the thefts from central banks, the gigantic $23 trillion in gift loans to cabal bankers around the world, these are the tell-tale signals of a fascist regime in power.
FASCIST BUSINESS MODEL & USDOLLAR & GOLD
The climax of the fascist seeds has been the Fascist Business Model, whose tree of corruption has indeed born fruit. But it is not edible, cannot produce jobs, and has resulted in the magnificent demolition of the USEconomy. The reverence paid to the financial sector stands as a defiant elite gesture of neglect paid to the millions of workers whose jobs are at risk, after their homes have lost equity. All stimulus is intentionally kept from Main Street, vast channels of liquidity obstructed like with pride. The $260 billion in fines and penalties directed at the Wall Street banks have not put them out of business. Rather the USFed and USGovt have covered their bills, along with the shareholders. Consequential costs from criminal fraud and thefts are a mere cost of doing business. The climax is the bitter fruit from the fascist tree, which will hasten very soon the demise of the USDollar and the resurrection from the charred treasury of the golden eagle (phoenix), as the Gold Standard is inevitable. The United States will be nearly the last nation to adopt the Gold Standard in remedy.
The link to gold from the entire 9/11 event is direct and indirect. The $100bn in gold bar thefts depleted foreign nations and foreign companies of their legitimately held gold assets, held in the WTCenter vaults. It was mainly a gold heist. However, what followed was a path created by the Fascist Business Model. The model merges the major corporations with the state, permits fraud and thefts, allows the big banks to write legislation in the Congress, puts bankers in regulatory posts to monitor banks and stocks, and generally leads to elite corruption, fraud, malfeasance, murder, lawlessness, and indescribable inefficiency within the capitalist system. The breakdown has led to a climax in 2012 with the QE set up by the US Federal Reserve. The Quantitative Easing promotes the unfettered printing of money to cover the USGovt debt, and to cover the redemption of Wall Street banks for their USTreasury Bonds held as securities. The unsterilized hyper monetary inflation is easily 10 times greater in volume than reported, and has undermined the entire capitalist structure of the USEconomy. The reaction across the globe from gigantic monetary inflation of the worst kind is to hedge as protection into hard assets. The result is the wrong kind of price inflation produced, which the St Louis Fed has admitted. The QE to Infinity has produced cost inflation, vanished profit margins, and retired capital. The capital destruction assure the systemic breakdown of the USEconomy.
The QE monetary policy is a guaranteed death sentence for the USDollar, since internally it has wrecked the USEconomy on the capital front, and externally it has undercut the global system reserves on the banking front. In the death spiral for the USDollar, the global players reject the USTreasury Bond as the reserve asset, and gradually move toward the Gold Standard. It will occur on the trade corridors first, then the banking system second, and finally the currency system. The 9/11 tragedy set events in motion which gave the Fascist Business Model a full official blessing, resulting in annual $1 trillion deficits, a USGovt deficit that cannot be financed, a QE disastrous monetary policy resembling those in Africa, and an assured death of the USDollar. Its demise, which is in progress by means of the dismantled Petro-Dollar machinery, will usher in the return to the Gold Standard. The hidden derivative losses are in the multiple $trillions. Since the United States is the least likely to produce a valid gold-backed currency, the risk is greatest for the US to fall into the Third World.
AIR TRAFFIC CONTROLLERS SILENCED
Post 9/11 the USGovt security agencies went to work to silence the air traffic controllers. Oaths of allegiance were forced for signatures, under threat of extreme consequence. The events of that fateful day included many gorey details, thus the pressure to seal the room. Leaks were not desired on the culpability of the USMilitary in certain events. For to expect so many controller personnel to maintain silence and not slip information to friends, colleagues, family members, and mere acquaintances, is utterly absurd. To be sure, some will meet with untimely unfortunate fatal accidents. At least 25 witnesses on the 1963 Grassy Knoll in Dallas Texas have met with untimely unfortunate fatal accidents, many violent.
MarilynB from Virginia is a longstanding Hat Trick Letter client. Without prompt, she volunteered some information. She wrote, “By the way, even though I was no longer an air traffic controller (ATC) when 911 happened, I had numerous good friends who were still ATC during the event. Right after 911, the NSA and CIA went to all the facilities and questioned every controller in private about what they knew. They were all ordered to keep their mouths shut and were forced to sign oaths of allegiance. They pledged never to talk about what they saw on 911 even amongst themselves. They also pledged to snitch on any other controller who dared to speak of 911. They were all legally gagged to the max. Most of them were terribly distraught and scared to death by the NSA/CIA threats. One very good friend had a nervous breakdown over the oath. She was afraid they would send her to a foreign prison and that she would never see her family again. Be sure to know, even back in the late 1970’s and early 1980’s, they had the ability to fly air carriers remotely, including takeoff and landing. The technology used on 911 has been around for many years. I have seen it work. Lastly, it is absolutely inconceivable that the military did not scramble on four supposedly high-jacked civilian airliner jets unless they were ordered to stand down.”
Compare and contrast to another detailed email exchange back in 2005 with a Hat Trick Letter client. It confirmed the aforementioned story. The client also had Air Traffic Controller contact information of a delicate nature. The story also was disturbing, but confirmed suspicions of an inside job. The client had a best friend who was a WashingtonDC air traffic controller during all of year 2001. A group of four women gathered for a dinner in the summer of 2005, all college chums, a little reunion that was ruined. The ATC friend had talked among her friends about how the USAir Force shot down the commercial flight over Shanksville PA. Later she was approached by the USGovt goons. She vomited on the day of having to sign the oath. She had signed the day before their dinner gathering when they came to her office. She was still very upset by the intimidating meeting. Her friends knew she was deeply distraught, so they followed her into the lady’s room. They saw her vomit a second time. She told her friends of the pressure to sign the oath, with full consequences. The rest of the evening was centered on the visit, the oath, the threats. The story was later related to the Jackass.
After the client told me the details of the evening, an opportunity was given to probe. My question was about the consequence in detail if she blabbed or went to the press. It is extreme. The whistle blower would suffer lost job, lost pension, lost health care, lost passport, go on the No Fly List, and never to be employed in the US again. In addition, they could put the person in prison for treason, if they so decided. That is truly ugly, and a wicked testimony to the fascist state the US has become. The naive sheep among us actually wonder why, if it really was an inside job, people do not come forward and speak from the stump. Because they are jailed and killed and threatened and disenfranchised, that is why. The targets are for prevention of disclosure in the mainstream, not the alternative media like internet journals. We net gurus in the alternative press are supposedly the kooks. Ok, except we have the data, the evidence, the logic, and the forensic conclusions on our side. Call me a Truther.
NEW SCHEISS DOLLAR & GOLD TRADE STANDARD
Events of the last two or three weeks could not be more disruptive, dangerous, or ominous. The IMF refused inclusion of the RMB in their currency basket, clearly feeling threatened. In response, expect China to hasten its efforts to dislocate the USDollar from its perch in trade and banking. Expect extreme pressures to accelerate the increasing required usage of Chinese RMB in trade settlement. The Chinese are even more motivated after the strategically important Tianjin business center and logistics data center was converted into a crater. Langley finger prints might soon be found. Almost a full decade has passed for setting up the widespread usage of Yuan Swap Facilities for bilateral trade between nations with China. Expect a major step toward coercing the Saudis to accept RMB currency for payment in oil shipments, a movement sure to spread to all Gulf Emirate nations. The oil card is the flash point.
In time, expect an eventual refusal by Eastern manufacturing nations to accept USTreasury Bills in payment. The IMF reversal decision assures this USTBill blockade in time, and might accelerate the timetable. The United States Govt cannot continue on five glaring fronts of gross violations. These violations have prompted the BRICS & Alliance nations to hasten their development of diverse non-USD platforms toward the goal of displacing the USDollar while at the same time take steps toward the return of the Gold Standard. The violations are:
1) to import finished goods and crude commodities, paying with IOU coupons
2) to commit multi-$trillion bond fraud in its big banks, done without legal prosecution
3) to do QE bond purchases in applied hyper monetary inflation, monetizing debt
4) to rig all major financial markets in favor of the primal USDollar
5) to engage in numerous regional wars to support the USDollar.
The key step upcoming is the Gulf Emirates soon to accept RMB for oil payment from all Eastern & Asian countries, the major flash point. Such event will sound the global alarm. Coupled with broadbased RMB trade settlement and more purchase of Chinese Govt debt securities, the movement will be on to finally initiate the grand dump of USTreasurys from Eastern banking systems. Then later the entire world (except for England and Canada and certain Western European coulee nations) will diversify out of USTBonds in their banking systems. The result will be then a forced reaction by USFed and USDept Treasury to launch the New Scheiss Dollar, which will at the outset have a phony gold foundation. A formal international audit process will break down the fraudulent basis, and lead to a series of painful New Dollar devaluations. Then comes the import price inflation, the supply shortages, and the civil disorder.
The New Scheiss Dollar will have a 30% devaluation out of the gate, then many more devaluations of similar variety. The New Dollar will fail all foreign and Eastern scrutiny. The USGovt will be forced to react to USTBill rejection at the ports. The USMilitary and Langley threats will not work much longer. The Langley crew might attack the entire world, which could result in an American Quarantine. The US must accommodate with the New Scheiss Dollar in order to assure import supply, and to alleviate the many stalemates to come. The United States finds itself on the slippery slope that leads to the Third World, a Jackass forecast that has been presented since Lehman fell (better described as killed by JPM and GSax).
The price of gold will find its true value and price over $10,000 per ounce. The Price of Silver will find its true value and price over $400 per ounce. In reaching these levels, the ratio will return to the 25-1 range. Several steps have been laid out by the Hat Trick Letter toward the return of proper price to precious metals. The major upcoming events will be exciting to watch unfold, one after the other, in an inevitable sequence away from fascism and concentrated uni-polar power, with a strong movement toward freedom and equitable systems with distributed power. The steps will each involve a quantum jump in the Gold & Silver prices. The process will take a few years, but might be breath-taking in speed once the process is begun. The steps involve:

A must read: David Talbot's "The Devil's Chessboard."
a-must-read!!
david - this speech would look better in comic sans.....
I wish you guys would stop with the mindless cut-and-paste routine about Kennedy reinstituting silver certificates and getting whacked for it. This basic falsehood means that any other point so laboriously presented has to be assumed to be false as well, barring some sort of independent confirmation.
What Kennedy did was to order the US Treasury to resume printing United States Notes (red seal bills), for which the government had standing authority to issue to the sum of about 300 million, if memory serves. These were virtually identical to the also-fiat Federal Reserve Notes except for the aformentioned red seal and the "United States Note" instead of "Federal Reserve Note" at the top of the bill. Some of these actually reached circulation before they were withdrawn about as quickly as Kennedy himself was. Go to your local coin dealer and ask if they have any 1963 US Notes.
And, no, you can't be charged with treason for blowing the whistle on 9/11 theories, Jim. Treason only applies during a state of actual, congressionally-declared war. This is why Jane Fonda is still around and why the New York Times is not out of business for blowing the lid on the US program to track al Qaeda finances. Not a legally-declared war. National emergencies do not count so far as treason is concerned.
Oh, and I don't quite understand the 25-1 gold/silver ratio they are speculating about since the US historically used a 15-1 bimetallic standard.
although the United States notes looked like Federal Reserve notes they where not issued in the same manner. Federal Reserve notes are issued from death. United States notes are similar to script issued by the military. There is no debt associated with them. They can be used to pay off the interest that is created from the loans that created Federal Reserve notes.
Yes, but they were not silver certificates as these guys keep claiming, just fiat from a different source of origin. Kennedy was obviously going to stop doing business with the Federal Reserve Bank and they didn't like that very much.
Police State?!!..Duh!
Wake up, folks..The US is under Martial Law, since 9/11 (The signs are everywhere..How do I know? I grew up in such a society, back in the old country).
Germany is even worse. Say anything bad about the invasion of Muslims and you will be arrested, lose your job or sued. Sickening. Evil. Soros all over the place.
Soros is an evil fucker, but he is just one bit player in a much larger play. The "Soros is to blame for everything" meme is part of the Red/Blue thing. I am all for hating Soros, but don't be snowed by the idea that he's somehow the root of the evil.
You gotta admit, someone (even at that early age) who turns his neighbors & family in to the Gestapo is a pretty vile individual.
Well, I would agree but I don't see why a lot of ZHers do.
They hate the Jews and yap about how Hitler was a poor, misunderstood philanthropist. Soros survived by becoming a heretic and turning in other Jews to help out Adolf. Wouldn't that make him a good guy?
He took the Bank of England for a billion bucks. You'd think this would make them happy. Fuck the Queen, who owns the world, except for the Jewish parts, and all that. Wouldn't that make him a good guy?
I just can't figure out why they don't like him.
I get your point about the cognitive dissonance of many here. To me, what you said confirms that there a lot of fuckers worth being pissed at.
EXTREME VIEWER WARNING
Remember, one role of our police state is to enforce tolerance.
Y'all want some of that "tolerance" here?

Now,I'm not a rocket surgeon,but it seems to me like there is a TV show that films cops on duty.And it is a VERY popular show at that. So why can a network crew film the jack booted thugs and all is well,but if I pull out my cell phone,there is hell to pay? Oh. That's right! They always show the men in blue doing things the RIGHT way. I would only pull out my digital recording device if they were commiting a crime. (which is almost ALWAYS the way it is). Gerald Celente said it best. It isn't the Justice department,it is the JUST US department.
"Forget what you learned in civics class."

Can you imagine these fascistic loser schools teaching civics. LOL
7 grand ‘disappeared’ in Chicago.
Ferguson disappeared too.
A cop kills himself and attempts to place blame on 3 random citizens. Massive manhunt ensues.
How much more fucked up can things get?
Imagine if they actually arrested some fellas and got convictions
The dead COP was wasting Government resources. Fail under it’s own weight 101.
What do they call that… John Galt’ing?
They may ban police filming, but cameras of very high quality and tiny size are getting cheaper and better all the time. Soon a lapel pin the cops can't even see from a distance will be able to film high quality video. The cops are fucked, we will all be able to film them, and they will not be able to tell. It's not like we would need to hold a cell phone up and chase them around, just being there with a small quality video built in to any type of device.
Government will try to ban cheap and small video devices. They want to control us, while we can not control them. The opposite of what this nation was set up to do.
Americans still believe government is there to help to protect to build a safe happy world for them. Fuck is that wrong!
If they continue fucked up enforcement of fucked up laws, this will be the filming they will need to worry about.

Hey, I have one the size of a car key fob. Records 16Gb of video and sound.
Bad cops will get uploaded FAST and they won't know it until the news at eleven!

Wrong,
In Spain they have have made it illegal to post anything negative about the cops, military, etc even if the police are doing criminal and despicable things. If someone posts it on FB or youtube or Picasa etc, they will either go to jail and be fined a ludicruous sum or both.
They'll do the same here, and MSM will not post it.
You know what. American Indians got a real raw deal from American government. Now it has come full circle, and government is treating us modern Americans like they once did the Indian. Government is evil, and the USA government is very evil.
Well, everyone make sure they stay away from the ghost dance. It's deadly!
We should be a zero tolerance body politic against the zero tolerance police state.
Just to see what happens :)
As far as not being informed I am 62, attorney, and educated enough to be encouraged to go on Jeopardy, (bfd), and just recently read about the Bobo League massacre, son of a hitch.
then Mr attorney, do you know that providing services and charging for them do not derive income? At least not for the person who got paid?
Thank you for the info. News to me.
Still in Marco Island, Fl. Collier Sheriff's busted a huge ring of heroin drug operations. I applaud the police force. It was past news for me. I love our Police Department in Marco Island. These socialist asswipes who want to legalizing drugs to continue Chaos Theory are going to face reality.
Mrs Atomizer calls me old for watching the City council TV channel. I just laugh.
Don't be fooled by these gun control fucknobs. Just look how they are trying to pass marijuana laws.
18th arrest made in Collier County heroin bust | WINK NEWS
Keep down voting. You attract people to check the facts.
So you must love the fact that the Taliban had almost eradicated poppy production prior to US invasion?
Legalize Heroin! (and marijuana too)
If you can't see the contradiction in being for drug control but against gun control you're to stupid to bother arguing with. The stupidity of the average conservative just isn't funny: https://www.lewrockwell.com/2015/11/laurence-m-vance/isnt-funny/
The problem is control, and the people who want to be "in control". Inanimate objects have nothing to do with it.
Legalisation makes the state more powerful. Decriminalize instead.
This was a early sweep; covering Lee, Dade county as well. Negro in Chief will spin the story as he blocks Congress on immigration laws.

I cannot keep up with everything happening. Just wanted to share since I'm still on Island. Keeping up with latest Marxist bullshit.
Who cares if you're still on "the island"? How did you accomplish this amazing feat? Form a coalition with the PTB? Is your strongest emotion disgust?
q: How does a cop get two weeks paid vacation?
A: Shoot a citizen.
this story is bullshit....TAKE AWAY THE NIGGERS FROM SOCIETY AND YOU DONT HAVE A PROBLEM. think about it...every fucking encroachment by gov was precipitated by black crime black violence black welfare black illegit birts...on and on. 90% of our budget goes to black issues. we wouldnt need the massive police forces if we took the black crime out.
cut the pc bullshit. state the facts...or go down with the ship.
do you mean extermination, or simply work camps?
'work camps'...now that is a funny joke right. work...LOL. do they know how to work?
at this point in time, there is a solution to all these problems. nature for lack of a better world will correct the problem. when liquidity stops when the gov big brother runs out of credit...everything will correct. the problem is most people will be on the wrong side of the correction.
Nigger means ignorant and that means you dick weed!!
Whew, thank god we have retard here who has it all figured out for us....Of course White people or Asian and so on don't commit crimes.
show me the numbers or go back to your basement apartment.....
And for those nostalgic about who it was that led us to this fate, daddy bush heroically decides to finally admit that that nasty chainey man caused his son to be so hated in is post presidency, and presidency;
NYS (the new york slime) reports;
"It also reports that Donald J. Trump, now a leading Republican candidate for president, wanted to be Mr. Bush’s running mate in 1988, and that Jeb Bush privately urged him to drop Dan Quayle from the ticket in 1992."

While I largely agree with the philosophy of the Doug Casey (InternationalMan) and Simon Black (SovereignMan), I do have at least one huge practical gripe.
They always talk about "spread your ass & assets all over the world".
While that advice might work for millionaires, and might be wise for some multi-millionaires, that advice is just impractical for the vast majority of people (including me). In fact, had I taken that advice, I would not have been able to implement a good solution to the predators-that-be problem.
The takeaway from current trends should be "get the hell outta dodge". To intentionally stay within what is quite quickly becoming far worse than Nazi Germany or Stalinist Russia or Mao China is simply stupid.
While I agree doing so is not easy, to NOT relocate is just a crazy plan. That's not far from saying "yes, taking [some terrible] drug is very bad for me, but I can't because doing so is not easy". Sorry, but that's not a rational response!
Sadly, almost everyone is insane today, and rational behavior is rare.
Maybe I should close with a quote from a friend of mine, circa 1988:
Sanity is seeing what's in front of your face, and not seeing what isn't.
Good advice.
I'm an American expat living in Asia .. It seems to me the US is the greatest (surveillance state) country in the world ... and the "state" .. the police ... absolutely want NO SURVEILLANCE of the state ... from what I read here, American police illegally confiscate and destroy eveidence of recordations of assaults on a very regular basis in every state and most principalities ... and the silent majority of the populace seems to think that is alright .. I don't keep track of the multitude of names of the victims but Freddie Gray comes to mind .. and there is always old whats-his-name "Can't we get along" ... RIP times two.
Today a video of an assault in Thailand has gone viral ... it is disgustingly graphic ... like some in America ... and I presume ALL of the anti-recordation minded American police would condemn the video just like they would of a recording of them assulating people or shooting them without cause ... it is evidence. Don't let anyone see it. Right? Maybe someone can suggest to the local police over here how it is a good idea to arrest the person using the recording device ... standard procedure I presume?
Recording an assault is recording an assault ... the American police would surely agree they would confiscate and destroy any such video ... right? May I suggest you watch this video
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cG-36az5CtQ
of an assault here, and imagine it is of a policeman's wife, or his daughter, or his mother, ... you get the idea. And then tell me you would destyroy the evidence ... please watch it and get a real feel for the experience ... love has nothing to do with it ..... the part where the kicks to the head are a bit extreme ... but killing by gunshot is more extreme; just quicker .....
When a person presumes to play police, judge, jury, and God ... then of course the victim being your mother would not matter if the perp was a cop .. or just an enraged husband ... right? Or wait, you mean there is a double standard? One for the state officers and one for pissed-off husbands? Is that an American thing?
Don't start on me having no right to my opinions, or being a liberal; I served 37 consecutive months; five tours of duty over here including Special Operations, and then 28 years in American law enforcement ..
My how far we've fallen, and it will get worse before it gets worse. The question is how far will we let them go before we act.
All roads lead back to the authority by distraint, to tax private property used for shelter, there is no such authority.
South Carolina has a “disturbing school” law, which makes it a crime "to interfere with or to disturb in any way or in any place the students or teachers of any school or college in this state.” The government can fine up to $1,000 or jail for 90 days anyone who breaks the law.
Wow, all those spitballs I threw?
Wet matches stuck to the ceiling.
"Whistling Chaser" firecrackers timed on a burning cigarette in the bathroom stall.
Science brand stump remover with sugar and rubber bands lit off in a vacant locker.
Penny locked classroom doors....
I'd still be paying that off.
If you give a thug a badge and a gun and tell him he's his community's finest, he'll start demanding you rispeck his authoritah. Most people would.
Only thing that would put a stop to this is to abolish professional police forces and put law enforcement back into the hands of a well-armed citizenry.
Problem is, such a citizenry would be a lot more reluctant to enforce taxes or evict people from their homes for falling behind on debts to banksters. Not gonna happen.
It seems to me, when government works in the dark, someone is going to stub his toe. The US government more and more hides even it’s most mundane workings from the public. There are obviously grievous examples such as not showing congress what was in the Affordable Care Act, (Obama care) until they voted on it, when Nancy Pellosi famously said, “You have to pass it to see what’s in it.” There are alarming examples like the new Internet regulations that were secret, and concerning ones too, the National Atmospheric Administration hiding it’s correspondence from Congress and by default the public. Unfortunately secrecy has become the norm. Budgets are passed in the dark of night, news dumps Friday afternoon, blatant ignoring Freedom of Information suits and so forth. The workings of government are now almost entirely hidden, which poses a very real risk for our liberty, prosperity and even sovereignty.

"Unfortunately, most people don’t even question whether there should be a resource officer in each and every school in the first place. Most passively accept it as an undisputed necessity. If they want change, they usually want a more aggressive police presence in schools."
Sadly, this mindless walk into the abyss of fascist totalitarian gov is the price we are all paying for decades of progressive brainwashing of the moronic population by the lying political elites and their butt-buddies, the MSM.
There is no easy way out short of revolution.
Let me guess...
The solution to this problem is: "Move to the Northern Argentina high desert..."
