Chicago, IL —Chicago’s Mayor and Aldermen approved a plan to make Chicagoans even more miserable than they are as some of the most overtaxed citizens in the nation. They are going to let private vendors handle the meters and soon to be increased fees. This hurts business, jobs and citizens alike. Chicago's rank and file cops hate this meter extortion too. What’s the solution you ask? That’s just too simple, crazy glue, washers, and courage. Hammers and pipe cutter work wonders too. If the meters are destroyed they can’t be used to extort money from anyone. If the cost of meter repair exceeds the revenue they are gone. That’s pure and simple. The only question I ask Americans is whether or not the participants in the Boston Tea Party would tolerate parking meter extortion by any government? Don't snitch on meter vandals! If you’re picked to sit on a jury for someone accused of parking meter vandalism simply acquit that defendant. Shake his or her hand after the trial and ...

To suggest that all guns traced by BATFE were used in a crime is a flat ignorant statement at best or an outright lie . Gun control groups are always calling traced guns “guns used in crimes” when they are not. Gun control groups whine that most all traced guns come from the gun friendly Southern states. That’s true of all firearms lawfully moved in America. Distributors and wholesalers simply don’t want to set up shop where they may be forced out of business through over-restrictive regulation. The BATFE has the ability to trace firearms manufactured or sold through dealers after 1968. The reasons for gun traces are as simple as trying to identify the owner of a gun that is believed to be lost or stolen. Also included in trace searches are guns turned in to police by people disposing of the possessions of their dead relatives. Most often, entire inventories of gun dealers become the subject of an investigative fishing expedition on a spot check basis. The vast majority of gun...

Sacramento, CA— Our favorite Terminator, turned Governor, Arnold Schwarzenegger has declared a fiscal emergency saying California can’t pay its bills after February. He says they will pay vendors with an IOU. That’s not surprising on a state run by Left Wing people that look to enslave their citizens to pay for so much crap nobody wants or needs. Now they look to people in more frugal states to pay for the mess they made. I have a simple solution to help states like California and Illinois through their difficult times. My plan will reduce lots emissions, and also help save the planet. I propose this as a long term solution with no serious side-effects. If this is an emergency like Governor Schwarzenegger any solution should be on the table. Front vehicle license plates are of limited value, create pollution during manufacture and most importantly burns money. Many states like Arizona do fine without them. Legislatures used to meet only once in two years. Now they furiously ma...

Constitution Arms' offering may sound too good to be true and in fact may be too good to be true. They don’t even have a real photograph of a finished product yet. They claim to have an unusual pistol, made for people with less than full dexterity with their hands. Get a prescription for the thing and let someone else pay for your fun. Would a physician dare write such a prescription for fear of litigation from Hell should there be an accident or crime? Somehow I don’t think so. I don’t think they will fill this prescription at your neighborhood Walgreens. In any event here is the poop on this single shot 9MM curiosity.

Dallas, TX—A clever lawyer has shut down camera traffic enforcement in Texas. This valid legal angle can also be used against the companies that provide this service to governments in California, Illinois and Arizona. The companies are unlawfully operating without required private investigation licenses in these states where they are required, The companies gather evidence to use in legal proceedings for compensation. That precisely why I’m required to have such a license for the work I do in those states. Operating without a license is a criminal offense! They can be forced under law to refund all monies collected unlawfully. I hope to see lawyers take up this and remove this tool that extorts money from citizens. Here is a news report from by my old friend Carol Cavazos at CBS 11 News in Dallas.

Glendale, AZ —Arizonans are taxed to death. Many can barely afford to keep a roof over their heads, feed their families and must go without health insurance. Despite this Arizona’s never ending supply of government bureaucrats have plush officers, take home vehicles and too many perks to mention. Arizona’s government grows faster than cancer. It’s become a monster that feeds on the backs of everyone and there is no control in sight. Arizona has installed new speed cameras on Arizona highways that spit out well over 40,000 tickets in just two months of operation. Does Arizona have a huge accident problem that led to this draconian enforcement? No, but they have a revenue crisis because of over-spending and runaway government growth. In the spirit that made this country, a Glendale man is accused of taking a pickaxe to a photo enforcement camera. Travis Munroe Townsend, 26 , was charged with criminal damage, interference with a traffic-control device and criminal trespass. The felo...

Gasoline prices in Westwood, L.A., a few months ago and today. What’s going on?

Mumbai, India —Police have some impressive rifles like the FN FAL, in .308. There are some but but individual officers are generally unarmed sharing weapons with others at best. Now The Indian Times broke a major scandal, that officers involved in the Mumbai attack defense had not fired their weapons in 10 years! It’s now obvious why a handful terrorists were able commit so much carnage and property destruction. You must read this to believe it! Cops just had 577 rifles, hadn't fired in 10 yrs 2 Dec 2008, 1203 hrs IST, Prafulla Marpakwar, TNN MUMBAI: The state constabulary was grossly unprepared to deal with the worst-ever terror attacks on the metropolis because of an acute shortage of weapons and ammunition. Official records show that for a force of well over 1.8 lakh, the home department procured a meagre 2,221 weapons — 577 for Mumbai, and 1,644 for the rest of Maharashtra. ‘‘Under the centrally sponsored modernisation programme, we purchased almost all types of weapons, but...

Washington, DC —It has been nearly I year ago when I exposed some “classified’ information on the dangerous conditions the TSA created with a bizarre holster requirement. The TSA mandated that pilots participating in the Federal Flight Deck Officers carry their loaded service pistols in a holster with a padlock across the trigger . The holster violated both safety rules and common sense. The locking holster turned the weapon into a deadly booby-trap causing the gun to be unintentionally fired. It was less than four months later when US Airways Captain James Langenhahn’s pistol discharged while he was stowing it away as his flight ended. I put together a video to show precisely how the accident happened and placed it on YouTube and other video sharing sites. The videos received a half million hits. CNN and other news outlets covered the story using my demonstration of the involved equipment. Langenhahn was removed from the FFDO program and fired. I think it’s clear that the TSA cre...

Chicago, IL —There is so much more to the Hudson Family murders that makes no sense whatsoever. Julia Hudson did not dump William Balfour as a “friend” on her My Space page and when that information was published in the media she simply made her page private. More importantly, as of today Julia Hudson has not bothered to file for divorce from the ex-convict that is now in custody for killing her mother, son and brother. Call that what you will, but it is sick. I have heard from sources close to the investigation all along that Julia Hudson has not been totally candid with detectives investigating this case. Julia Hudson stood to make a financial windfall with the death of her entire family but for her talented sister Jennifer Hudson who has enjoyed newfound wealth. I must say something really smells here.

Chicago, IL, Criminal Court 2600 S. California-- I’ve obtained copies of the criminal complaints for three counts of Murder and one count of Home Invasion against William "Flex" Balfour along with the arrest report. Balfour was ordered held without bond on these charges and still has a non-bondable parole violation hold outstanding. He has been remanded to the coustody of the Cook County Jail pending further proceedings. William Balfour Case[1] Publish at Scribd or explore others:

Chicago, IL— Hudson family murder suspect William Balfour's mother, Michelle Balfour is quite agitated by her son’s arrest for the brutal killings of three members of Oscar winning actress and American Idol Jennifer Hudson’s family . Balfour has been doing life in prison on the installment plan for a host of despicable and violent crimes. Perhaps if this loving mother had raised her child with a little more supervision he would be practicing medicine instead of costing the taxpayers millions for his legal fees, room and board behind bars. I can’t help but believe the more Mama opens her moth the more damaging information she provides police investigators. This lady is right out of Hollywood’s Central Casting…

Los Angeles— The Associated Press is reporting that lawyers for Academy Award winning film director, Holocaust survivor and fugitive Roman Polanski have filed a motion in the Superior Court seeking to have the 30 year-old charges dismissed. The motion alleges new facts uncovered by a recent documentary film revealed prosecutorial and judicial misconduct. The HBO documentary, Roman Polanski: Wanted and Desired was released and reviewd earlier on this blog. Polanski was prosecuted for consensual sexual relations with Samantha Geimer, then 13 years-old after a romp in actor Jack Nicholson’s hot tub. Polanski had an incredibly difficult life where Nazi’s murdered his parents and the Manson Gang murdered his beautiful, young pregnant wife, Sharon Tate. Polanski served some prison time but after the late judge, Laurence Rrittenbrand reneged on a plea agreement Polanski fled to France. Polanski has been punished enough, let him return in peace.

Chicago, IL —That was the official word from the Chicago Police Department in connection with the October 24, triple murder of family members of, singer and actress, Jennifer Hudson . Balfour is set to attend a bail hearing tomorrow afternoon. He already has a lawyer at least for limited purposes of bail issues. He may wind up with another lawyer for the pending charges. Deputy superintendent Steve Peterson was very tight lipped about the evidence and the role snitches played in the investigation. He did say Balfour had not confessed. Peterson said that they are not ruling out other people being involved with the crime. Police believe that the motive was related to domestic matters between Balfour and his estranged wife. Police say recovered physical evidence recovered is still being examined at the state crime lab. The ball is now in the hands of the Cook County State’s Attorney . They may elect to put their case on at a future public, preliminary hearing or before a secret Grand...

Los Angeles, CA. --Between Santa Monica and Malibu sits the community I consider the best in this region. So do a large amount of wealthy celebrities like Billy Crystal, Michael Mann, Suzanne Summers and Glen Close . The LAPD has virtually abandoned this community of patrols because of its citizen’s stellar behavior. The crime here is limited to home invasions and burglaries. Our faltering economy will only make things worse. Budget cuts and violence in other areas are threatening to leave this area even more under-policed. The burglar alarms can only summon police and an already intolerable police response time is aggravated even more. The real answer for this community is secession from Los Angeles and creating their own police force. Why pay taxes to a city that does not provide adequate services. The problem is the votes for such a move come from the impoverished areas that love the huge amount of money that the city coffers get from these rich Westside folks. Los Angeles can alw...

New, York, NY —It was an act of negligence to carry a Glock handgun without a holster. You see the Glock has a safety mechanism that is unreliable without a holster. As a result football star Plaxico Burress was injured when the gun slid down his pants leg and fired while he was in a night club. New York where it happened and New Jersey where Burress lives pride themselves on their laws that violate the Constitutional rights of Americans to keep and bear arms. Today, Burress faces from 3 ½ to 15 years in prison for carrying a gun without a permit they would never issue to him in the first place. In addition Burress could lose his financially rewarding football career. The Heller decision from the Supreme Court did not address the right to bear arms because the issue under review was about the narrow matter of handgun ban that prevented people from keeping a gun in their home. The court upheld the Second Amendment as an individual right to keep arms. Logic assumes if the issu...

Joliet, IL —Today Chicago police detectives from Area One, Violent Crimes paid a visit to Julia Hudson’s estranged husband, William "Flex" Balfour at the Stateville Correctional center where he was held on a parole violation. They served him with a warrant for triple murder and hauled him back to their officers. A formal complaint for, three counts of First Degree Murder are pending preparation by the Cook County State’s Attorney’s Felony Review Unit. Of course this all began October, 24, 2008 with the shooting deaths of deaths of Darnell Hudson Donerson, Jason Hudson , and Julian King . Balfour will face a Cook County Circuit Court judge in the morning and that’s when they will appoint a lawyer to represent him. Balfour will most likely be held initially with no bail and there is that second DOC hold that will also be non-bondable. Balfour's new home will be the infamous Cook County Jail. Let me say I’m surprised that they did not already impanel a Grand Jury and pick ...

Los Angeles, CA —Believe it or not California’s gun-hating politicians learned something from a tragedy. Two suicidal gunmen armed with exotic fully automatic weapons, body armor and lots of ammunition was discovered by an LAPD officer on their way into a Bank of America branch. That officer called for help and the rest is history. In hindsight it would have been better to simply ignore the incident because the LAPD was no match for the robbers. The price paid in causalities was horrific before the carnage was over. LAPD’s officers had only 9MM handguns and a few .12 gauge shotguns. They were defeated by the robber’s armor. Unlike Chicago where politicians completely ran the gun dealers out-of-town the LAPD officers sought and obtained high powered weapons from a gun store. Chicago police could never cope with anything like what happened in North Hollywood. Mayor Richard Daley and police superintendent Jody “J-Fed” Weis both know the truth but have taken no steps to remedy the s...

Washington, DC —Most Americans don’t have a clue what this is all about. Simply put the Possse Comitatus Act prevents the government from using the military for law enforcement purposes against Americans in their communities and homes. This vile government activity has been outlawed for 130 years, until now. The Democratic controlled Congress plans to begin with 20,000 military troops set aside for various domestic enforcement events. Disasters, and terrorist attacks are at the top of their agenda. There is nothing to prevent the suspension of the Constitution and using the military to break into American homes to seize lawfully possessed firearms, cash, gold or valuables to redistribute to others. Ignorance and bliss by America’s politicians will hale this terrible idea as something wonderful to keep our country strong. It is dangerous to our way of life, freedom and liberty. We are about to begin a new chapter of political ideology with the election of Barack Obama as President. Th...
