Sunday Legislation raises its ugly head on the radio

Brethren, As I awoke this morning I heard a startling segment on NPR (National Public Radio). The short space mentioned a subject that is ever present on my mind: Sunday Laws; In this case, I was shocked to hear a supposed public broadcasting system advocating "Blue Laws". Yet, it's been prophesied that Sunday Laws will be first be imposed in our beloved United States of America, and will quickly be achieved all over the world. True Globalism, indeed? Therefore, this can't really surprise me since all that has happened in recent years points toward this becoming a fact. This is not only a sobering issue, but an affirmation that the Lord's Word is accurate. His prophesies will come to pass since He is the Alpha and the Omega, who knows the end from the beginning. Let us continue to watch and pray for our redemption draweth nigh.

Satan puts his interpretation upon events, and they [leading men] think, as he would have them, that the calamities which fill the land are a result of Sunday-breaking. Thinking to appease the wrath of God, these influential men make laws enforcing Sunday observance. They think that by exalting this false rest-day higher, and still higher, compelling obedience to the Sunday law, the spurious sabbath, they are doing God service. Those who honor God by observing the true Sabbath are looked upon as disloyal to God, when it is really those who thus regard them who are themselves disloyal, because they are trampling under foot the Sabbath originated in Eden. Maranatha, p. 176, or Manuscript 85, 1899

Here's a transcript of the astonishing NPR/University of Florida segment:

It’s Sunday morning. You roll out of bed to get ready for church, shuffle to the closet and stare blankly at your wardrobe. You rummage through some shirts but nothing seems to work. Suddenly you remember that special holiday sale at your favorite store and your will to worship wanes. Visions of cashmere sweaters on clearance dance in your head. Picking out a brand-new outfit… for church, of course… now seems much more appealing than sitting in the service. So instead of heading to the pews, you hit the mall in search of some holiday steals and deals. But according to researchers from DePaul University in Chicago and Ben-Gurion University of the Negev in Israel, shopping won’t replace the joy of joining others in prayer. The study found that women living in states where “blue laws” were repealed attend church less often… and also feel less cheerful. The repeal of these commandments requiring stores to stay closed on Sunday is tied to decreased contentment, suggesting a link between religion and happiness. Some of the women in Sabbath-spurning states might work on their day of rest, surely a factor in feeling forlorn. Another outcome was that teenaged mall rats took part in more risky behavior. This effect could also contribute to their mothers’ melancholy. Whatever the reason for the decline in delight, there’s no question that the lure of immediate gratification… either a football game on T-V or a sale at the mall… can be irresistible. Addictive activities tempt men and women alike, regardless of whether they attend Sunday service. The findings support the proverb “Money can’t buy happiness”… or that retail therapy can’t replace the fellowship of friends and family. . Source . Note: Bolds and Highlights added.

Hollywood Publicist's Murder Planned in Advance

The mysterious shooting death of Hollywood publicist Ronni Chasen gets even more mysterious: Citing a "city official," The Hollywood Reporter reports that the attack was planned in advance—"not the result of road rage or a carjacking gone awry."

Licking Medical Waste Will Get You High

Long Island nurse Erick St. Louis was arrested for allegedly stealing medical waste in search of Fentanyl patches, a potent cancer drug, which he would suck like "an artichoke" to get high. Then he'd dump the waste on a playground.

Oklahoma Wants To Use Animal Euthanasia Drug on Death Row Inmate

What do you do if you're a state executioner facing a shortage of drugs for lethal injections? You improvise. That's what Oklahoma is trying to do, by using pentobarbital — the same drug used to euthanize animals — on humans.

When most states ran out of sodium thiopental, the main drug used in state executions, corrections officials in Oklahoma amended their protocol to allow the use of pentobarbital, which has never been tested on humans: "We do not believe it would be cruel and unusual punishment," Oklahoma Department of Corrections spokesman Jerry Massie told NPR. Experts, and rational human beings, disagree. "The state is basically experimenting on the execution of a human being using a drug that's never been used before, and this is really a first," says law professor Deborah Denno.

Convicted murderer John David Duty is set to be executed on December 16, and will essentially serve as a guinea pig for the state so it doesn't have to wait for more sodium thiopental to be produced early next year. His case is now before a federal court, with defense attorneys citing the Eighth Amendment — the right against cruel and unusual punishment.

Arguments against the death penalty aside, what's the fucking hurry? Oklahoma can't wait a few more months for the one company that makes sodium thiopental, Hospira, to produce more, instead of experimenting on a person?

‘Paying To Be Raped’ The Not So Gradual Degradation of a Nation

‘Paying To Be Raped’ The Not So Gradual Degradation of a Nation

by Sibel Edmonds
BoilingFrogsPost.com

Every single day millions of us are being subjected to the shameful processes of being searched, screened and viewed naked, patted, groped, fondled, poked and stroked by badge-wearing strangers – police under a different name. Every single day. Millions of us, Americans. Being violated. Being degraded. You know exactly what I am talking about. I am taking about me, you, your mother, her brother, his brother’s wife and toddler son, their grandmothers. I am talking about the systematic degradation of our people. I am talking about being raped of our dignity, privacy, and decency. I am talking about a daily systematic rape we actually pay to be subjected to. I am talking about severe violations we elect people to bring upon us. Yes, I am talking about traveling, TSA police, and being reduced to naked and helpless subjects of government police practices.

Considering its short tenure, the motherland police force, aka Department of Homeland Security, has had a one-of-a-kind success. In less than a decade it is now the third largest cabinet police department. It has around 200,000 employees, and that’s without counting contract employees – which exceed this number. Now remember, we still have the FBI, CIA, NSA, DIA…plus all the other state and local police forces from before. TSA makes up over 60,000 of DHS employees. This 60,000 federal police force oversees 450 airports, so that makes it around 133 police per airport. And that’s in addition to local airport police.

What do I mean by not so gradual and systematic degradation? I mean in less than ten years, they went from this:

to This then to This

And now to this, this, this, and this all together:

Next, coming soon, very soon, it will be This
and This

Last week TSA announced that airline passengers should expect to see and feel additional pat-down procedures at U.S. airports over the coming weeks to provide another layer of security. They said passengers should continue to expect “an unpredictable mix of security layers that include explosives trace detection, advanced imaging technology, canine teams, among others.”

The following blurb comes from CNN, thanks to one of its employees who chose to speak up a little, only a little (all emphasis in bold are mine):

Rosemary Fitzpatrick, a CNN employee, said she was subjected to a pat-down at the Orlando, Florida, airport on Wednesday night after her underwire bra set off a magnetometer. She said she was taken to a private area and searched, with transportation screening officers telling her the pat-down was a new procedure.

According to Fitzpatrick, a female screener ran her hands around her breasts, over her stomach, buttocks and her inner thighs, and briefly touched her crotch.” I felt helpless, I felt violated, and I felt humiliated,” Fitzpatrick said, adding that she was reduced to tears at the checkpoint. She particularly objected to the fact that travelers were not warned about the new procedures.

Okay, up to this point I was pleasantly surprised to see this piece being run by a mainstream outlet, and the fact that this woman didn’t take the rape in silence and go away the way most do when it comes to these government sanctioned and implemented systematic rapes, but then I reached the following:

“I am appalled and disgusted at the new search procedures and the fact that passengers have not been made aware of the new invasive steps prior to entering the security area,” Fitzpatrick wrote. “It appears once you enter the security area, passengers forfeit their rights. There were no signs, video information, etc. at the entrance of the security area at the airport. Why?”

She added: “As an experienced traveler for work who was in tears for most of the search process, I have never experienced a more traumatic and invasive travel event!”

First, let me give her due credit for saying out loud that she objected and felt: helpless, violated, humiliated, appalled and disgusted. But after that, it is my turn to be appalled. Is the process supposed to get less humiliating, appalling, traumatic, and disgusting if the violators give prior notice about the violations, the rapes, to come??!!! Please walk with me through the following reasoning:

Two rapists are brought before a judge. One had caught his victim by surprise through a blitz attack, then violently raped her. The other had stalked his victim for a while, sent her some disturbing warning notes, and then violently raped her. Victim one turns around and tells victim two: Why do you feel violated?! Your rapist gave you the courtesy of warning notes – and that makes his rape much less of an offense than my rapist!!

My question to CNN’s Fitzpatrick is this: Next time, when these people squeeze your breast, poke your buttocks and stomach, and grab your crotch, will you feel okay? Far less violated? All because now you know what to expect?!

After reading the piece I quickly scanned other news sites, both mainstream and alternative. Almost all of them picked up the story and reported it per the original, and the strongest cursory comment at one site was that the story and Fitzpatrick’s experience was “unsettling.” Wow! How hard-hitting! But that was not what I found, and find, so very “unsettling.” Not at all.

What I find truly unsettling is that we only have a handful like Fitzpatrick who come forward screaming about the horrifying, humiliating, violating, traumatic …nature of these federal police practices (abuses) in all our airports. Now that is truly unsettling, shocking, and appalling as far as I am concerned. Millions are going through these routine rape processes (Yes, RAPE: raping you of your dignity, privacy, humanity, and more. Ok?!) without a peep. What is going on here? Have “their” systematic humiliation and degradation practices been so successful that millions take it regularly without any protest, objection, action, counteraction?!

I am talking about the hard-core ACLU following liberals. Where the he … are you?! I can’t hear or see you. Where is the protest? Give me a holler, and let me know where and when and I’ll be there to join. Here I’m hollering on the record. And no, don’t go file a couple of lawsuits and say that you’ve done your share; that lazy move hasn’t worked for at least a decade!!

I am talking about those on the extreme right of those mentioned above. What happened to your slogan of small government and keeping a tight rein on federal government practices? Isn’t this as close and personal it gets, when your feds are squeezing your testicles while breathing inches from your face, and while you are fully paying for these squeezing and probing services?! I thought you’d attributed these practices to those commies, shouldn’t you be barking when it is in your own backyard?

I am talking about old fashion patriarchal guys. Where are you macho and good ole cowboy mentality testosterone walking bags when your wives and daughters are being fondled, squeezed, and intimately probed? Shouldn’t you be roaring like lions and throwing punches like John Wayne when it comes to those who violate your “women”? Don’t you feel your manliness under attack when they make you stand in front of them, with your legs apart, arms up to each side, while their hands wrap around measuring your buttocks?

I am talking about us Americans, those to the right, the ones on the left, the upper class- lower class, and those in the middle…Here we are, the entire nation, being violated and raped on a daily basis by our servants whom we pay for dearly. Last time I checked we were paying them over $7 Billion – here it is with all the zeroes: $7,000,000,000. Please, don’t even try to bring up that “security” punch line so overused and abused, because last time I checked they were not providing much in terms of “security.” In fact they couldn’t even secure their own personnel files and records.

Soon they will be bending us over to give us a thorough cavity search. After that it will be all cavities… And after that…There will be one or two who may stand up and scream. And for “them,” one or two, even ten will be very easy to quash and “eliminate.” Yet, I am still here, still hoping; hoping that somehow I’ll get to see that number in the tens of thousands and beyond, and that’s the only hope I see to stop our expedited degradation process. They say it always starts with one. Well, here I am, willing to be one. How about you?

The Lighter side of Global Terrorism

Lyrics to The Lighter Side Of Global Terrorism:
Can I touch you here?
May I search your bags?
You have randomly been selected
Got a funny name and you look the part
Plus, I like the way
You bulge in your clothes

Yehhhh I love my job
Rock bottom pay never felt so hot
Big man, uniform and badge
Pedophile Santas ain't got nothin' on me

I love to feel sexy things
Other people's sexy things
I love to peek at people's things
Other people's private things

When I was young and someone's guest
I'd find a way to sneak upstairs
Peek in the closet, paw through the drawers
And feel a tingle up from below

Oh, how I love to find
New playthings for my mind
I file these thoughts away
Until I go on break
When I can finally touch myself

See your shiny jewels
On your neck and wrists
They could be weapons
We must play safe

So fork 'em over,
Or you're under arrest
Maybe you should have checked them
In your suitcase

Meanwhile, down below
What have we here?
Let's open this one up
Pills! Cash! Electronics to fence
Let's see you prove they were there
In the first place

Who is that behind
The one way mirror blind
Just little ol' me
And my non-dairy creme
Gotta wipe it up and go select
Someone new
Wooo!

A Flickr photo shows a computer in a TSA airport office with a desktop image of a satirical book entitled “My First Cavity Search.” Our photo and Photoshop experts have examined the image and believe that it is real. Infowars.com is currently attempting to contact the Flickr photographer to establish if the image is real.
In January, the Guardian reported that experts determined that naked body scanner technology violates child protection laws which ban the creation of indecent images of children. The British Department for Transport confirmed that the “child porn” problem was among the “legal and operational issues” under discussion within the government.
Since the introduction of airport scanners, there have been countless complaints regarding privacy issues.
Earlier this year, a TSA employee in Miami was arrested after he physically assaulted a co-worker who had joked about the size of his penis.
In March, a TSA worker who conducted so-called patdowns was charged with multiple child sex crimes targeting an underage girl. “The bust outraged privacy and passenger advocates who say it justifies their fears about Logan International Airport’s full-body scanner,” the Boston Herald reported.
In September, 2007, a woman died while in custody at Phoenix’s notorious Sky Harbor Airport. Carol Ann Gotbaum had argued with TSA employees prior to her death and the official explanation was that she had strangled herself “while trying to get out of her handcuffs,” according to a report posted on the Gothamist website.
As the neocon Jeffrey Goldberg wrote in late October, the TSA considers the backscatter scanners and the “opt-out” manual search comical. Goldberg asked a TSA officer if the new Department of Homeland Security guidelines include a cavity search. “No way. You think Congress would allow that?” the TSA employee responded.
In addition, the Atlantic’s Goldberg was told by the TSA agent directly that pat downs were made increasingly invasive not for any genuine security reason, but to make the experience so uncomfortable for the traveler that they would prefer to use the body scanner, despite the fact that scientists at Columbia University and the Inter-Agency Committee on Radiation Safety, along with other scientific bodies, have all warned that the devices increase the risk of developing cancer.
Fresh food that lasts from eFoods Direct (Ad)
Congress may be squeamish about anal cavity searches, but if the photo below is indeed real, employees at the TSA consider this most humiliating form of molestation to be a laughing matter, especially when conducted on children.
