ISIS: The Lone Wolf Terror Attack Era

 

ISIS (Islamic State in Iraq and Syria) is a Sunni extremist group that is based in Iraq and Syria in the Middle East. It also goes by the name of ISIL (Islamic State of Iraq and the Levant).

This terrorist group was formed in 1999, and was known as Al-Qaeda in Iraq (AQI). The leader of ISIS is Abu Bakr al-Baghadid. It is said that he received his doctorate in Islamic studies from a university in Baghdad.

Abu Bakr al-Baghadid and his militia are known for killing dozens of people at a time, and carry out public executions and other barbaric acts. The goal for ISIS is creating an Islamic state across Sunni areas of Iraq and in Syria.

Once former Iraqi leader Saddam Hussein's military was disbanded, former soldiers became ISIS fighters. And then the numbers grew from there. ISIS is a group that has over $100 million in funding. So if you're looking to slow them down, you have to have a strategic plan.

President Barack Obama has dedicated time and effort to make sure that the United States will stop ISIS once and for all. He's been on the offense by adding an additional 1,500 troops to Iraq to fight the terrorist group. Obama chose not to go to combat with ISIL, but he's conducted airstrikes which has been effective in Syria.

In the past few months, this group has been on every news channel across the world. They gained notoriety when they decided to record and post on YouTube the beheading of U.S. journalist James Foley. He was decapitated by ISIS militants. It didn't stop there. The group started to threaten more lives of American journalists to make a point.  

ISIL's philosophy and representation comes from their black flag. The phrase on the flag says, "There is no God but Allah". Their parent organization Al-Qaeda also carried that flag.

ISIS believes in converting non-believers into believers by force, which includes rape, violence, kidnap, and murder. Everyday this terrorist group is growing by the dozens, and citizens across the world are joining in on the action. They are promised money, stability, women, safety, religion, and fighting for a cause.

We can't take our eyes off of ISIS for one moment, because they'll keep attacking and killing the innocent people of Iraq and Syria. By then the countries will be taken over and destroyed by the hands of ISIL.

Rob O’Neill Trading in Classified Information for Fame and Fortune

The ex-Navy SEAL Rob O'Neil, 38, claims that he shot and killed Osama Bin Laden alone on that fateful day in Abbottabad, Pakistan, in May 2011.

O'Neil is surely looking to cash in from his recollections on what happened. However, his colleagues aren't happy with him coming out and saying all of this, and they are challenging his version of events of what really happened that day.
 
The Military brass are even looking to take legal action against O'Neil for revealing classified information. Do we really care who took the shot that killed Bin Laden? Maybe, but in the military you take an oath that special operations will be kept in secrecy. In that case, it looks as if O'Neil joined the Navy Seal's for the money, because he's spilling his guts about the raid.
 
O'Neil will be doing a two-part Fox News TV special next week, and will give a very detailed account about how he killed the Al Qaeda leader Osama Bin Laden.
 
Rob O'Neil has said that he shot Bin Laden in the forehead twice that put him down, and then a third shot that finished him off. I don't know about you, but him coming out with this information makes me sick to my stomach.
 
We as Americans love the heroism that our armed forces puts out day-after-day by putting their lives on the line for our freedom. So when you hear a story like this, you can't believe what you're hearing. How could a ex-Military veteran come out and say that he shot and killed a notorious terrorist that took down the World Trade Center. It doesn't sit right for many people that are listening to this.

We do understand that former military veterans have a tough time adjusting to civilian life after war. They even struggle to find good work after they fought for us. But this is low-down dirty what O'Neil is doing.

The money that he's going to receive is just out of this world. Where is your integrity and the brotherhood you once had with the Navy SEALs.

Cop Killer: Luis Enrique Monroy-Bracamonte A.K.A. Marcelo Marquez

Luis Enrique Monroy-Bracamonte, 34, is suspected in the murder of two deputy sheriff's in California on Oct. 24. The accused killer goes by the name of Marcelo Marquez, because he's gotten into some trouble in the U.S. dating back to the mid 1990s. The name Marquez is said to be his wife's last name, his brother Hector Monroy claims.

Monroy-Bracamonte and his wife Janelle Marquez Monroy are both charged in the double-murder rampage. Other charges they've been given include attempted murder against several other deputies, and stealing a deputy's shotgun.

Many people around the country are trying to figure out why both husband and wife would go on to kill these innocent officers. Monroy-Bracamonte has been arrested in the past for petty thefts and traffic violations in Utah and Arizona. Marcicopa County Sheriff Joe Arpaio, of Arizona, says Marquez slipped through the cracks.

Monroy-Bracamonte has been deported twice back to Mexico, but always found his way back to the states. He and his wife are facing the death penalty if convicted. They haven't entered any pleas, and told the judge that they can't afford lawyers. So you know who's paying these fees; the taxpayers.

So these two can come to the United States, kill police officers, and then have taxpayers of California pay for their legal fees; Only in America.

This is a travesty, and there needs to be some changes in the system. Illegal deportees shouldn't find their way back to the U.S. after numerous arrest. Now two officers are dead because these two murderers slipped through the cracks from immigration officials.

Kaci Hickox Still Poses a Extreme Threat

Kaci Hickox, 33, was granted access to the public by Maine's District Court Chief Judge Charles LaVerdiere on Friday. The ruling has become very controversial around the country, and Hickox defiance towards government authorities has been also made headlines this week in the news.

Hickox is a nurse from Maine who treated Ebola patients in Sierra Leone. So when she returned back to the U.S., she was forced by government officials to an Ebola quarantine. Hickox resisted, but she was put into an isolation tent because of an elevated temperature in Newark Liberty International Airport.

Governors Andrew Cuomo and Chris Christie only wanted to make sure that Hickox didn't contract the Ebola virus while in West Africa. Kaci Hickox hired a lawyer because she felt that her civil liberties has been taken away, and argues that she isn't sick. However, that's all good and well, but the country is very scared and nervous of this deadly disease that has killed nearly 5,000 people.

Americans knew there would come a day that Ebola would make its here. So with Hickox deifying authorities, this is making the country even more nervous. They think she's a carrier and that she'll spread the disease to others, and it will start out in her small town in Maine. However, Hickox has tested negative for the virus twice, but it can still appear in her body within 21 days.

This was the reason why the government wants to take precaution with health practitioners returning home from West Africa. They just want to make sure that they aren't carrying the deadly disease, and would like them to be quarantined for 21 days. Now, returning health officials can do this from the comfort of their own homes.

The Ebola virus is just a sensitive topic to talk about right now, because everyone is scared, they're on edge, and just not educated enough on this disease.

Many think that they can catch Ebola as if it were airborne, but it's not. That's far from the truth, but the tension will keep arising as long as this virus is in our country.

Oscar Pistorius is Now a Disgraced Former Olympian

Oscar Pistorius was once considered a beloved sprinter in his hometown Johannesburg, South Africa, but now he's known as a murderer. Pistorius was found guilty in September for culpable homicide, and is currently serving a five-year prison sentence in Petoria, South Africa.

Oscar Pistorius was first introduced to the public for being selected as the first double leg amputee to participate in the Olympics. In the 2012 Summer Olympics in London, Oscar Pistorius competed in the 400 metres race, finishing in second place. South Africa has now got its new face for sports, and Pistorius was honored to carry the South African flag for the closing ceremony.

But his celebrity all came to an end on that fateful Valentine's Day in 2013, where Oscar Pistorius shot and killed his girlfriend of three months, Reeva Steenkamp. Pistorius claimed that he shot her because he thought she was an intruder, and he got overwhelmed and nervous. Reeva's mother has gone on record as saying that "Pistorius always had it in him to kill someone, but it just happened to be my daughter". He was even called "trigger happy" by June Steenkamp, 68.

In his trial the defense claimed that Oscar Pistorius suffered from anxiety disorder, which I think was just a way to justify the killing of his girlfriend. This happens to sicken me when someone commits murder, then they try to find any avenue to justify why they killed in the first place. Many times than none, the jury reads right through the bull, and go with the evidence.

The former Olympian seems to have gotten off quiet easy by the courts. He's eligible to be released from prison in just 11 months for his crimes. I personally think in no time he will get right back into sprinting, and wouldn't be surprised if he's competing in the Summer Paralympics again.

In prison, Oscar Pistorius will spend a few months housed in a hospital for the disabled, but many prisoners are not taking this well. They believe that he's getting preferential treatment because he's a famous person.

It just goes to show you that when you are famous, people tend to give you another chance, even if that means committing a heinous crime like murder.

The Body Count: 7 Women Found Dead in Hammond and Gary, Indiana

Suspected serial killer Darren Vann, 43, was arrested Friday night after a woman was found strangled at a Motel 6 in Hammond, Indiana. Mr. Vann has been officially charged today with the murder of these 7 women that were found. Darren Vann has been very cooperative with police, and gave them the locations of all the women that were killed.

Everyone is wondering right now, on why he's coming forth with all of this information. Maybe it's obvious or not, but he's looking to make a deal with police. Darren Vann doesn't want to face the death penalty. So by being cooperative and telling police where these women are located, he feels that he can escape what is inevitable.

Mr. Vann is being proactive in such a disgusting sick way. Gary and Hammond, Indiana is facing their worst nightmare right now, that's in their own backyard. Having a serial killer lurking, raping, and killing these young women has put this state on edge. 

The two women that have been identified are Afrikka Hardy, 19, and Anith Jones, 35. The other five women haven't been identified as of yet, but there has been missing person reports on some of these women recently.

Darren Vann isn't originally from the Gary, Indiana area. This is a predator that made his mark in Texas when he was convicted for a sex offense on attacking a 25-year-old woman.

I'm just glad that law enforcement made the proper arrest of this alleged monster, and got him off the street. I hope he doesn't get the deal he's looking for, because he made sure that he didn't give these women a chance to live.

Even if they were prostitutes or drug addicts, they were still people. Every hour that's going by, more information is coming out of this horrific story in Gary, Indiana.

Who is Eric Frein? The Pennsylvania State Trooper Killer

The whole country is still trying to wrap their heads around on finding out more of who is Eric Frein? This 31-year-old man is still on the run for killing a Pennsylvania State Trooper and wounding another one. We want to know why he decided to attack law enforcement, and what was his whole motive behind it.

There are many stories being told about Frein, but the stories aren't really unfolding the main reasons why a Pennsylvania man can just open fire at state troopers for no apparent reason. Maybe this is a just a game for Frein, who knows. 

Eric Frien is a man that kept to himself, was found to be a bit weird, and didn't have much friends. In his adulthood, he would work sporadically like at a grocery store, or teaching archery.

Eric Frein isn't your normal killer per se, meaning that when we hear about someone that kills, you usually find out the reasons behind it. With Frein, it is only said that he had it out for the government and didn't care much for cops. But what did the cops do to him in the past to make him kill? That's the big question out there, and no answer has been given.

Right now, it's been five weeks since the shooting took place in the Poconos, and Eric Frein is still hiding out in the woods as claimed by law enforcement. It is believed that he'll be caught soon because the cold is starting to come in, and he wouldn't be able to survive without gaining more supplies. The media has put out there to the public that Eric Frein is a survivalist, and can make it in the woods for a long time.

But in the Pocono Mountains the black bears will be coming out, and will be very hungry. If Frein is still out there, who knows if he'll be able to survive that.

But I think this is all a smoke screen created by law enforcement for us to think that they're going to capture Frein soon, but I'm guessing they don't even know if he's still in the Mountains. All we know is that Eric Frein has probably already headed south, because of the warm climate.

The FBI and law enforcement are looking in the wrong area and need to put focus on other places in the country. Eric Frein wants you to think that he's still in the woods, but he's a survivalist, and he won't stay in a small area where he could get caught.

Eric Frein learned his marksmanship from his father, who was a army major. His father says "his son doesn't miss his shot". That's pretty scary to hear from a army veteran. That just confirms his son is a stone cold killer, and he wouldn't hesitate to kill again. His father knows a lot more than he lets on. He probably knew that his son Eric would go after the police, but to shoot them down with a high powered rifle, who knows.

It's only so long that he can elude capture, and I hope he's brought to justice, because when you kill someone you should pay the price. It wouldn't surprise me if Eric Frein is killed in a blaze of glory with police, so he won't be detained and sent off to jail and face execution.

The Mystery Still Remains: What Killed a Family of 5 in Utah Home

The mystery just seems to continue on the deaths of 5 family members in Utah. The Strack family lived near the Salt Lake City area and were considered quiet people. In late September, the Strack's older son which is 18, found his family members dead in their bedroom. He then called 911, and emergency response was on their way to discover this horrific scene.

This is such a tragedy in itself, but it doesn't due any justice that five people can be found dead, and there are very little answers to what happened. The only thing we know for now is, that violence and carbon dioxide was ruled out. So what killed this family of 5 then?

It will take another week or two to get the answers that the family, residents of the community, and the country have been seeking for almost a month now.

In my opinion, I think it was a murder-suicide that killed this family. The reason I say this is because the husband and wife had money issues that they were facing for years now. We all know that in this country, lack of money is a big issue for many families, and some don't know how to face it head-on, and sometimes bad things may occur because of it.

My heart goes out to these three kids that were taken off this earth so soon. At the tender ages of 14, 12, and 11, they had a lot more living to do. There are stories saying that the family may have drank something that would've killed them. So right now, toxicologists are looking into that, and not ruling out other suspicious activities. I just can't believe that we as a country, haven't been given the proper facts of this story, and that it is taking so long get results.

I get it, proper protocol needs to be taken, but when a family of 5 die in the same day at home, and there wasn't any violent struggle or carbon dioxide, what could it be then? Let's just stay tuned because we will get the answers we need very shortly.

Ebola: The Virus That Has The World Shaken

This is a frightening disease that is scaring everyone around the world, but now, it has hit home in the United States. I'm still trying to comprehend this virus, and how a person can contract this deadly disease. The research that I've done, says that Ebola can only be contracted through bodily fluids, and it isn't an airborne disease as many Americans think.

Living in New York City, we happen to be an overpopulated place, with over 10 million people living here. New Yorkers know exactly what I'm talking about right here. So many people are scared that if someone coughs they can be affected by this disease, which is just ludicrous if you ask me.

I understand the concern, because trust me I have them too. But that's what happens when a virus hits home, many people start to panic and get all riled up.

To understand the virus, you have to know when and where it all started. Ebola outbreaks started back in 1976, in Africa, and at that time, they only had a few cases of the virus. Many people have been hearing the name Ebola, but they don't know how the disease started.

This deadly virus comes from Fruit Bats in Africa. These are bats that are holding the disease, and have now affected mammals of all kinds. That's all how the disease started to spread to humans in Africa.

Decades ago, we as Americans didn't even know about a virus called "Ebola". The country was busy fighting diseases such as HIV, AIDS, and Cancer. These are the diseases we've known for so long, and have been fighting for a cure for many years now. To have this disease appear in our country is just sad, scary, and there needs to be answers for this.

The Ebola outbreak has been going full force this year in West Africa. There has been over 4,000 deaths already, and the numbers seems to increase by the day. If you come into contact with this virus, you have a 50-90% chance of dying. Right now, the FDA hasn't approved a vaccine for the Ebola virus. But when they do, and hopefully soon, many lives will be saved because of this drug.

For the past few weeks, the United States has been put on a high alert, because Thomas Eric Duncan unknowingly came into the country having contracted the virus from Liberia. Unfortunately, he died last week as he was fighting for his life, but the disease got the best of him. I hope that everyone stays safe, and this deadly disease can be contained.

Wife of Slain California Mayor Still Not Arrested

Los Angeles-area Mayor Daniel Crespo Sr. was gunned down by his wife of 28 years, Levette Crespo, on Sept. 30. She shot him multiple times after a physical fight broke out between him and his son, Daniel Crespo Jr. It all started when both Daniel and Levette Crespo were arguing, and soon after, the son decided to intervene. When the son did, allegedly the father started to hit him, and that's when the wife got a gun and shot Daniel Sr.

 

Levette claims that her husband has been abusive towards her for many years, and now she just got tired of it. My whole thing is that, if you're a battered wife, why not go to the police or just leave him? If you decide not to do any these and stay with this abusive husband as she claims, shooting him four times and killing him, isn't the answer to the problem. I think some women use this as a cop-out, by making it okay to kill their husband and then claiming self defense.

　

If the shoe was on the other foot, I promise you that Daniel Crespo Sr. would’ve been charged already with first-degree murder. Then after, he would be hated by the whole country. I can't stand this double standard. We don't know if she was abused, and if so, killing him in self defense needs to be proved in a court of law. As of right now, she hasn’t been arrested.

　

Daniel Crespo Sr. was a well respected political person the community. He was known for being a fun-loving human being that loved to serve others. For over 20 years, he was a probation officer serving the people. After that, he decided to become Mayor of Bell Gardens, which is a small suburban community in California. This is such a tragedy for the family, friends, and everyone that loved him around Los Angeles. I don't think that the wife should get away with this. There needs to be a full investigation on this alleged abuse and the gun that killed Crespo Sr.

I'm all for women defending themselves from abusive men, but something just doesn't sit right with me in this situation. Especially from everyone that knew Daniel Crespo Sr. said he was a great man that always wanted to help. His son which is 19-years-old, says that he was just trying to help his mom from his father. I think there's a big cover up going on here, and when the facts come out, justice will be served for Daniel Crespo Sr.

A Death Row Inmate Released After Nine Years in Texas Prison

Former death row inmate Manuel Velez was convicted of murdering his then-girlfriend's year-old son, Angel Moreno in 2005. In 2008, Velez was sentenced to death because the prosecution stated to the jury, that he would be a threat to society. Velez has an IQ of just 65 and was a construction worker at the time of the murder. When he was arrested for the crime, while interrogated him, police made him sign a typewritten statement that said he committed the murder.

After spending nine years behind bars, by which four of them were spent in death row, his conviction was overturned and he's finally released. The evidence that was put forth proves that he was nowhere close to baby Angel when he was injured.

Manuel Velez was 1,000 miles away when the murder took place. The whole time the culprit for this unforgivable murder was the mother, Acela Moreno. She was the one that hit Angel in the head with her hand or an unknown object.

In Acela Moreno's plea agreement, she was to testify against Velez in exchange for 10 years in prison. This is just sad how a mother can kill her baby and then blame it on the boyfriend. When murders like this take place, the police and the courts seem to take the sides of the mother. Before you convict and condemn a person, get all the facts straight and then make your decision.

Velez never had a chance in court from the beginning, justice wasn't on his side. First, because he was illiterate in both native languages, Spanish and English. Being poor in the United States doesn't help either. He was given a court-appointed lawyer that didn't fight for his freedom or his innocence.

Usually the poor in America are the ones to suffer in the criminal justice system. Just because they can't afford a high-power attorney they're limited in options. Their only option in most cases is pleading guilty and receiving less jail time.

As we know, the state of Texas loves the death penalty and what it stands for. It's the execution capital of the country. You have a man that was almost executed because police were hiding evidence and a court-appointed lawyer was just incompetent. Our legal system just proves to us that they're making a lot of errors, and people are paying for them with their lives. Unfortunate but sadly true.

The Jumpsuit: In Ferguson, It Has Come to This

Last week Friday in Ferguson, MO, more than a dozen of protesters were arrested for not complying with police, and resisting arrest. This is getting more disgusting as the days, weeks, and the months go by, on how the police are treating these residents of Ferguson. All hell broke loose when the demonstrators were protesting in front of the Ferguson Police Department.

The protesters that were apprehended by police, seemed to be mostly African American women. This is a damn shame that the county jail has gone this far to embarrass the people of Ferguson. They placed these arrestees in orange jumpsuits, and kept them held for more hours than normal. Let's not even talk about bail, because for some, bail was set for over $2500.

It amazes me how these people are treated while in pursuit to get justice for Michael Brown, who was slain by a white police officer. These bail amounts given to blacks are just excessive and outrageous. There is no need to make them the example because the Ferguson Police Department is annoyed with them, and don't want them to protest, which is their constitutional right in America.

I can understand the police arresting protesters that aren't obeying the laws, that's looting, or just not acting peaceful in a demonstration. Everyone needs to keep in mind that a young unarmed black teen was killed by police. These demonstrations are all about making changes in the community and hopefully in America.

I hope they get rid of these orange jumpsuits and not put them on protesters again. Many of them were arrested for merely just standing on sidewalks. The more negative news that comes out of this city, the more our country looks divided and out of order.

Alton Nolen: An Infatuation With Beheadings

The major news coming out of Oklahoma recently is the beheading of Colleen Hufford, 54, who died Sept. 25. The suspected killer is Alton Nolen, 30, who is currently held in jail and charged with first-degree murder and assault. Nolen's drastic behavior that deadly day, started out when he was suspended from his job for making alleged racist comments towards Traci Johnson. She claimed that Nolen doesn't "like white people".

Alton Nolen wanted revenge for his suspension at Vaughan Foods, so he did just that. The same day he went home to get a kitchen knife and went back to his job. Both of his targets were Colleen Hufford and Traci Johnson, both which are white females.

Hufford was the first to encounter Nolen, as she was then beheaded by the vengeful employee. Then Nolen went after Johnson, as she only suffered a few stab wounds, but was saved by reserve deputy Mark Vaughan. The reserve deputy shot Nolen with a shot gun but not killing him.

Nolen has a history of violence and a long rap sheet. It all started with his drugs conviction and assaulting a police officer. He was sentenced to six years in prison, but was released after two because of good behavior in 2013. I'm not against convicted felons getting back in the workforce and having an opportunity to flourish in society. That's the American way and everyone deserves a second chance at life. But like in every company, you have to be careful who you hire.

This man converted to Islam while incarcerated and then started having hatred for whites. Just because you convert to any religion, that doesn't mean you should hate anyone. Usually that's not tolerated within the community.

The FBI says that on his Facebook account he had photos of Osama Bin Laden and some beheading videos. I don't believe this murder was a terrorist attack as many republican representatives are saying. It was treated as workplace violence as it should be. Nolen wasn't targeting Americans because of a religious belief or some kind of jihad extremist groups.

Alton Nolen had a issue with the company and its employees for his suspension, and he wanted revenge because of it. How he handled it is a totally different story. Nolen shouldn't have gone back to his job to kill his co-workers.

Regardless if he would've been fired or suspended, life isn't over. I can understand in a felons mind, they're thinking that they can't get any other work. But this isn't how you go about it because murder is never the answer. The prosecution will be seeking the death penalty upon his conviction.

We Don't Want or Need Another Bush in Office

Former Florida Governor Jeb Bush is considering making a run at the White House in 2016. His brother former President George W. Bush is pushing Jeb to run. He thinks that "he'd be a great president". Many are saying, what took him so long in the first place. Now at age 61, Jeb Bush is really thinking he should. He'll make his decision by the end of the year.
 
It wasn't no surprise to me that he didn't run for the past 8 years, because he knew the country wasn't ready to for another Bush in office. Jeb's brother George has damaged the Bush name and has given little hope for any other family member to one day be in the oval office. George W. Bush will likely go down as the worst president of all-time. He pushed back our country so far, that today we're still struggling and just trying to catch up.
 
Waiting was probably the best decision that Jeb Bush has made so far. For one, he's very knowledgeable as a politician I must say. He's also been Governor for 8 yeas of a swing state which is Florida. But I know for sure this country doesn't want a Bush dynasty in the White House. You can bet on that.
 
Jeb Bush wouldn't stand a chance running against a democrat favorite Hillary Clinton or Al Gore. Bush would definitely get the GOP nomination because he would be considered the most qualified of them all. His name might be very popular to many, but it's also considered a gift and a curse. The Bush name is well known around the world, but it's also damaging as well. What his father and brother put this nation through will never be forgotten.
 
If Jeb Bush decides to run, he wouldn't have to worry about raising any money for his campaign because he'll have donors lined up that are willing to support his efforts. The Bush family as we know loves the attention and just having another family member in office would make me just lose my mind.

Michael Dunn is Convicted of Murdering Young Black Teen

Nearly two years later justice has been served in the state of Florida, as Michael Dunn was convicted of first-degree murder. When I saw the reports everywhere this evening, it made me really happy to hear the results. My heart went out for the victim, 17-year-old Jordan Davis's family. This was such a tragedy. He was only a junior in high school and didn't even get to live a full life. Now Michael Dunn, 47 will likely spend the rest of his miserable life in jail without the possibility of parole.

I say Michael Dunn is a evil racist that always had it in him to kill an African American. You can say it was premeditated murder, because a man like this was bound to kill one day. Dunn carried hate in his heart for blacks and the music of choice they play, which is hip hop.

You don't see blacks out here killing white people for playing loud country or rock music. Incredible! This story made my day even though it's a sad situation, but as we've seen in the Trayvon Martin case, Zimmerman walked. The people wouldn't let that happen again. Not like this anyway.

Young Jordan Davis was just at a gas station with friends playing hip hop music, so Dunn decided to shot him in cold blood. That self defense argument went out the door when they didn't find a gun on Davis. First he kills this teen, then decides to go to his girlfriend's house to order a pizza. Damn, you can shoot a man then after have the urge for the munchies. Some stories just blow my mind.

I know for a fact that the people of this country can't take another acquittal from a murderer that's killing off innocent blacks. It's just so sad that when you leave your house, you don't even know if you'll return home alive. That's a scary thought.

If you were thinking Michael Dunn was going to show any emotion after the verdict, you were dead wrong. Why would he? He's a former software developer that wears an invisible white robe if you know what I mean. Protective custody has his name on it and will be waiting for him. Without it, he's a dead man walking. May God bless you!

Jodi Arias: Should She Live or Die

 

Convicted murderer Jodi Arias is back in the news again as she waits for her fate for killing her ex-boyfriend Travis Alexander in 2008. She's already trying to charm potential jurors in this penalty phase retrial. When they walked in the courtroom Arias eyes were on them while giving them smiles. That tells you everything about this woman. She's always focusing on herself and not victim's family.

When Jodi Arias murdered Travis Alexander in his Arizona home in 2008, it wasn't just a murder, it was overkill. There isn't that much rage,anger and jealousy inside you that you have to stab this man 30 times and then shoot him in the head.

Jodi Arias trial was a big media fiasco in January 2013. The trial went on for five months, and it cost the residents of Arizona a whooping $2.5 million. Now with the penalty phase trial, that number will keep growing and the people are just upset about the whole thing. They just want this whole thing to go away.

I believe that Jodi Arias should be sentenced to life without parole and not the death penalty. Many people do want her to die, because we have to keep in mind, we live in a country that believes in an eye for an eye. Or to put it more bluntly, revenge. I don't like this about our country. Yes, she did a horrific crime that should be punishable, but who are we to make a judgment if you live or die.

I never understood why we practice this cruel punishment in the United States. It's like once someone is murdered we are quick to say as a society, give them the needle. Wrongfully or rightfully convicted, I'm totally against the death penalty. I hope that changes will be made in congress to eliminate this in the future. But do I think they'll stop it anytime soon, not at all.

The prosecution is pushing for the death penalty, but in the first trial the jury was deadlocked. If the newly selected jurors can't make a decision this time, the judge will make his determination of either life in prison or to be eligible for release after 25 years.

This woman doesn't belong on the streets ever again. She should die in prison for the crime she committed. I wouldn't be surprised if they gave her life in prison, just because of the cost of the trials and the frustration of the taxpayers. Protective custody is where she'll likely spend the rest of her life. Jodi Arias couldn't survive a day in general population.

The Shooting That Has Us Scratching Our Heads

Earlier this month former South Carolina state trooper 31-year-old Sean Groubert shot and wounded an unarmed man during a seat belt violation stop. The victim was 35-year-old Levar Jones, who was pulled over in the gas station as he was coming home from work. This wasn't your normal violation stop at all. Former officer Sean Groubert seemed very nervous from the start when he pulled over Jones, as the dashcam shows. That doesn't seem like a state trooper who is highly decorated to me.

One thing I noticed was Jones just got out the vehicle without being told to. I don't know how they do it down in South Carolina, but in New York and other states you wait to the officer comes to your vehicle to tell you why he/she stops you. That stood out to me how Levar Jones was pulled over and he then got out the truck without being authorized. We all know that's a big no no for black people to do, and especially down south. I hear a lot of people around the nation that are saying this is another case of police brutally against blacks.

Trust me when I tell you, this is much different than the Mike Brown saga or other police shootings against black people in the past. The reason I say this is because the violation stop started all wrong from the beginning. You can't have a trooper that's supposed to be highly trained tell Jones to get his license while he's out the car. Once Levar Jones got out of his car, Groubert should've said get back in your truck and then proceed with proper protocol. This was a bomb waiting to explode from the start.

So there were mistakes on both sides. Now that Sean Groubert asks Jones for his license, he then tapped his pocket to see if it was in there and it wasn't. So then he puts his head in the truck to retrieve it, and that's a major mistake on Jones. He should have said to the officer that his license isn't in his pocket and he's going to get it from inside the car. That would've put Groubert at some kind of ease. I watched this video over and over and I don't know why Jones didn't let the officer know that he'll be putting his head in the vehicle.

Once Levar Jones did that, you already know what was going to happen next. The shots were fired and Jones got hit. It's a disturbing video to watch and just a sad story in general on how blacks are viewed by police. I'm just happy that Jones didn't die in the shooting because this officer let the bullets fly close range. This is way deeper than racism. You have many police officers around the country that are predominantly white and you are suppose to tell me that they aren't scared of blacks and Latinos. 

How can we as a country expect them to go into the urban communities and be for the people. It's just not realistic. The police force needs to put the proper officers in the areas that the people can relate to. If this is done, I think that crime can go down and the people of the community will feel less targeted and threatened. Many white officers seem to be scared of black people, from what they've heard or seen on television and that's why they're so aggressive towards them. Even if that means killing them.

15 People Shot and Wounded at Miami Nightclub

 

Last night in Miami fifteen people were shot in a nightclub called The Spot. It was supposed to be a night of fun, where teenagers and adults came together for a gathering. But the fun turned into mayhem, as shots were fired and teenagers including adults were wounded. The ages of the victims range from 11-25. I'm just wondering how the hell a 11, 12, or a 16-year-old child are allowed in a nightclub anyway.

I understand times are changing and all, but these young ages are just ridiculous. Sources are saying that the nightclub may have broken the law by allowing such young people into this environment. In Miami, they have a strict curfew for minors under 17 to be out by themselves between 12 a.m. to 6 a.m. without adult supervision.

We don't know the cause of the shooting and if there were more than one gunman. But what we do know is that, there were about 100 gunshots fired in total. When emergency responders showed up to this horrific scene, they couldn't help all the wounded inside the club. Some of them had to be treat outside on the sidewalk unfortunately.

There is a lot of blame to go around to start with, first with the parents, nightclub and the shooter. This whole shouldn't have happened. Our children should be fully protected and not subjected to this violence. These young kids I call them, should've been home with their parents. The parents of these young minors should be questioned by police, on why their children were allowed to go to this nightclub.

At 1 a.m. this morning the shooting took place, so that means you have a nightclub that just ignored the ages of these kids. I don't get it and never heard of a story like this. I know snitching, talking to the cops and so on is against the street code in many urban neighborhoods. But when they are children involved, people have step up and do what's right.

Through all of the shooting victims, it is said to be only one that is critically injured. This could of been a lot worst, but thankfully nobody died, especially our young children. I hope they catch these guys and they get the book thrown at them.
