Real Scorn
3 Men, 1 Plan, to attack New York City in the name of The Islamic State. Consider the content, kinda eerie. Does this harken back to Vegas?
"The planned attacks included detonating bombs in Times Square and the New York City subway system and shooting civilians at specific concert venues," a Department of Justice statement said.

Proud To Be An American?
1,518 mass shootings since Sandy Hook. Something just ain't right here in the land of the free. Now I see ISIS is attempting to claim responsibility for the actions of Mr Stephen Paddock. The Human Animal is scary.

Enough Drama
Gotta say, with the US President, Kim Jong-un, NFL Protests, Mother Nature, Terrorism and-and-and . . . one needs to check out for sanity. Think I'll tip-toe back into the studio and get another story ready to roll.

Above Those They Swore to Protect
Read this Police Union statement carefully. Common folk, it is claimed, are not trained officers and thus can't judge the actions of police officers. Man, we gotta long way to go on this social justice deal. By the way, this involves the white nurse in Salt Lake who was following proper procedures set in place by the hospital she is employed with. I was an officer and what I saw were wrongful actions by the police officer. Enough said.
"The premature release of body cam footage is particularly demoralizing as it allows the public who have not trained as police officers to make what often amounts to biased and ill-informed judgments of the police," association president Stephen Hartney said in a letter.

Oh That Deadly 2nd Amendment
Well, America has logged its 31st School Shooting. Guns don't kill people . . . students do. Guns sure do facilate the deadly art of killin' though. To think . . . Rockford WA is described as a close knit community. The shooter was not bullied or picked on, had many friends as well as access to at least two guns. Come on America, guns and cancer kill people and both must be dealt with.

As Told in Justice
MINNEAPOLIS (AP) — A Minneapolis police officer is charged with sex crimes allegedly involving his son’s girlfriend.
Fifty-eight-year-old David Edward Campbell of Bloomington was charged Tuesday with third- and fourth-degree criminal sexual conduct as well as terroristic threats.
According to the complaint, Campbell’s teenage son and his girlfriend told Bloomington police that Campbell had been sexually abusing her. The girl had been living with her boyfriend and his family.
Prosecutors allege Campbell bought new underwear for the girl and asked her to take photos of herself in the underwear and send them to his phone.
The complaint says Campbell also exposed himself to her, touched her and threatened to shoot her if she told anyone. Some of the incidents occurred while Campbell was on-duty.
Campbell is in jail and due in court Wednesday.

Power Corrupts and Absolute Power
This regards the Nurse in Utah . . . Barker stressed that a "color of law" review, which examines whether law enforcement officials exceeded their authority, was a preliminary step that may or may not lead to a formal investigation.

Not Until Trump
The President makes $400,00 annually + 50,000 travel expenses + 100,000 nontaxable travel expenses + 19,000 for entertainment. President Trump has given up his annual salary. Actions speak louder than words and this is nothing but good for the debt ridden country of America. Right?

Watching the Watchers
Ended up enjoying the Eclipse. Folks pulled over staring up at the sky. Employees standing in parking lots moon gazing. I was asked if I realized I was missing history. Well I'll get over it I told 'em. I figure I see an Eclipse, Sunset or whatever it's called, every night at around nine this time of year. Oh, and did I mention how many times I was told to not peek at the sun without protection? A condom pulled over my face? No silly, glasses, Eclipse Glasses. And so it goes. . .

Eclipse
Guess I'm the only one in the Universe who isn't shook up by an Eclipse. I mean, every year or so it seems we have an eclipse of a lifetime.
