You may be a Terrorist if…

You may be a terrorist if you share an apartment with others. This another factoids can be derived from a documents floating around the Arizona Police computers that was made available by LulzSec last week. Many of these documents also came from other police departments, and the Department of Homeland Security. It is likely all of these documents have been shared with other police departments, and may help explain the hostile nature of the police.

Take, for instance, the document titled, “Counter-Terrorism Law Enforcement Officer Roadside/Interdiction Questioning.” (LE Roadside Questioning), indicators that you may be an Al Qaeda terrorist include telling an officer that you are on your way to Walmart or the grocery store, living with other people, or answering a question with a question.

How else can you explain a cops hostilities when they encounter someone recording them not doing anything really inappropriate? Well, aside from the desire to prevent evidence of wrong doing from being made public, they are probably rationalizing it as neutralizing a threat. What threat could a camera possibly be? According to another document (GI08002-Sovereign-Militia Information) that apparently has been emailed to AZ LEO’s, if a person tries to record a police officer, they may be a part of a group of people classified by the FBI as anti-government extremists that “engage in acts of terrorism and violence” or “Sovereign Citizens.” If they call a friend to witness their traffic stop, it is another indicator that they are terrorists.

Your iPhone can be probable cause in the document forwarded to other police, “iphone apps- used against officers.doc” Because anyone with an iPhone can have these apps installed (Trapster, caller id faker, and the parody digital scale), the officer is encouraged to look through every arrestees cell phone for evidence. Trapster in particular seems to be something they are afraid of because they think it can provide criminals with realtime police gps locations (CRIME ALERT 2009-0084.doc) that can be used to ambush or kill police officers (which it can’t). The “Find your iPhone” feature of newer iPhones also causes great concern for the police, because it allows criminals to remotely erase data on their phone if it is confiscated by the police. Because of this, they now carry faraday bags to place iPhones in to prevent a remote wipe signal from reaching the phone (Find my iPhone.pdf). Because of this, anyone with an iPhone is also potentially a criminal, and using the iPhones features for “criminal” purposes.

The Department of Homeland Security and other federal agencies seem to be behind many of these documents, or the ideas behind the documents. The DHS beats into the local cops head that terrorism is every where, and that the world is an incredibly dangerous place where people are just looking to kill police. This may explain the seemingly spontaneous militarization of the police, and the extreme reactions they have to people. I haven’t even gotten into the drug and illegal immigrant documents yet, and there are many of those.

A Familiar Twisting of Events: Keene Sentinel

As a reminder that newspapers really work for MiniTruth, the Keene Sentinel just published an article about the death of Thomas Ball, the man who committed suicide by lighting himself on fire outside the Cheshire County Courthouse.

Yesterday, myself and others pieced together the history of a troubled man strung along by the government for over a decade as he tried to gain legal right to visit his daughter. His suicide note confirmed our suspicions. With this mans suicide, he has directly attacked the collective conscience of the city, and the State of NH. Anyone who reads his suicide note may be left wondering if the system they support is really as horrible as it is made out to be.

However, the Keene Sentinel tries to soften the blow this man made to everyone’s consciences by assuring us he was really just a crazy person in today’s article titled: “Familiar refrain: Why?” Other articles try to remind everyone that he hit his child over a decade ago, once, which is enough for him to have suffered 10 years in the courts, and good for him if he is dead.

The newspaper may lie, the public may deceive themselves to feel better about what happened, and the city may repaint the sidewalk so that all memory of this man is erased. They cannot change what happened, and what continues to happen to countless others in the most corrupt system in this country.

Happy Flag Day, Daniel 3, Present Day

1 Nebuchadnezzar the king made an image of cloth, whose height was onescore cubits, and the breadth thereof two score: he set it up on a stick, in the plain of Dura, in the province of Babylon.

2 Then Nebuchadnezzar the king sent to gather together the princes, the governors, and the captains, the judges, the treasurers, the counsellors, the sheriffs, and all the rulers of the provinces, to come to the dedication of the image of cloth which Nebuchadnezzar the king had set up.

3 Then the princes, the governors, and captains, the judges, the treasurers, the counsellors, the sheriffs, and all the rulers of the provinces, were gathered together unto the dedication of the image of cloth that Nebuchadnezzar the king had set up; and they stood before the cloth that Nebuchadnezzar had set up.

4Then an herald cried aloud, To you it is commanded, O people, nations, and languages,

5 That at what time ye hear the sound of the cornet, flute, harp, sackbut, psaltery, dulcimer, and all kinds of star spangled musick, ye fall down and worship the cloth image that Nebuchadnezzar the king hath set up:

6 And whoso falleth not down and worshippeth, and pledgeth allegiance shall the same hour be cast into the midst of a burning fiery furnace.

7 Therefore at that time, when all the people heard the sound of the cornet, flute, harp, sackbut, psaltery, and all kinds of musick, all the people, the nations, and the languages, fell down and worshipped the cloth image that Nebuchadnezzar the king had set up.

Announcing Distress Signal: Community Run Emergency Notifications

I’ve been slightly silently working on a project that I’ve now placed on Kickstarter. It’s a decentralized emergency dispatch network that can be run by communities and groups apart from 911. The decentralized approach prevents disasters from completely disabling it, or governments from blocking access. This also allows for municipalities to be less tied up in emergencies that do not require 911.

Tax Receipts

I just looked at my tax receipt from the White House website. After my refund is taken into account, the amount taken from me was around $4,085. What things that I enjoy was the money used for?

Well, $3,100 was used to pay into a retirement fund I’ll never see or get to use. I don’t enjoy that at all. $725 was used for Medicare Hospital Insurance. I just went to the hospital a while ago. I am still paying that off because I don’t qualify for medicare. So, I paid a good chunk of cash to pay for someone else’s healthcare and can’t pay for my own. Definitely not for this at all yet.

I paid $68.00 for national defense. This includes a war I font want that has been fought less effectively than randomly killing people while hoping there is a bad guy there somewhere. Next in the list is Healthcare! Again! But this does not cover me either. $63.18.

Job and family Security plus Education and Job Training. I could use these services if I qualified. But, again, I don’t. $69.42 left my budget to pay for food for my family and into someone else’s pocket for their family. It’s a good thing I have a high interest credit card to help cover that missing one-weeks worth of groceries. It’s also the price of my dentist visit today.

I also paid $10.66 for garbage quality benefits for people who look down on me and demand I do things for free (Veterans Benefits). $5.46 for to be told I’m not allowed to used cheap light bulbs anymore, and have to now purchase $50 sets to avoid the flicker from the fluorescents (Natural Resources, Energy and Environment). There is $4.42 for pissing off other nations (International Affairs), $3.12 for a now non-existent space program.
Another $4.42 that went to kill a kids dad for drugs he didn’t use, throw hard workers out of the country, arrest Amish for drinking milk, kill people who self medicate and take political prisoners (Immigration, Law Enforcement and Administration of this joke called ‘Justice’). $2.08 funds agriculture and tells farmers what to grow. $1.30 for “Regional Development” and $1.04 for screwing up Katrina and setting fire to Texas, also known as “Response to Natural Disasters.” And finally, $6.24 to pay for the politicians limos, prostitutes, highways and the general throwing money down a drain.

Oh, wait, I forgot about the interest payments of $19.24, because the government is so nice about getting loans on my behalf and using it for junk I don’t want and then demanding I pay the interest.

So, what on earth do I use that I am paying for? Maybe the $6.24. And yet, when I complain about taxes, people tell me I shouldn’t because I am using the services. I’m not using any of these services! I can’t use most of these services, and I’d rather not use most of the others. What services in this list do you actually want to pay for?
