Rialto, CA —Recent published news reports claim that the use of force by police here has dropped by 60% and citizen complaints against officers are down a whopping 88%.   They attribute this to the new program of having cops wear video cameras that document every interaction with the citizenry. That was a predictable outcome since cops must constantly deal with troublemakers.    The behavior challenged miscreants are understandably camera shy when it comes to acting out when they know their antics will be displayed on the big screen in their nearest courtroom.   There is a serious and deepening division between the police and people with that certain anti-police mindset.   This was created by the political Left Wing.  It’s funny that the Democrats complain the most about the enforcement of the very laws their favorite politicians have passed into law! They don’t blame those despotic freedom-hating politicians but instead fault the cops! ...

Los Angeles, CA —The heavy populated urban areas of this not so Golden State dictates state law.  The majority of lawmakers in California come from the extreme Left Wing .  They make law after law designed to ban guns.  They never allow the U.S. Constitution get in the way of their Fascist-Marxist agenda. Since around 1967 the Left has been on a tireless major campaign to demonize gun owners, guns and our Constitution.    They succeeded in getting media assistance with massive misleading propaganda.   Those on the Left fabricated damning statistics out of thin air and gotten millions of people to compromise away their rights to keep and bear arms. The media harped until congress, legislatures, and city councils enacted ban after ban. The last big and somewhat successful push was under the Clinton Administration .    They were somehow able to redefine military fully-automatic firearms to include hundreds of common semi-automatic ...

Stephanie Carrie will make you laugh for sure! Los Angeles, CA —Most of my visitors know that among other things I’m an actor too.  I met Stephanie Carrie when I attended Tom Todoroff’s  Acting Studio here and made some other life long friends along the way.  Nearly every one of Tom’s students has some kind of TV or film credits but making the coveted A list is really tough.   We've all learned that even the best talent does not translate to fortune and fame.  It’s more about having a very effective agent.  It also boils down to the agent selecting the you as their talent and not then other way around.  Carrie is an actress, singer, writer and comedian.  Like everyone she struggled and paid her dues.  She also recently started a web series.   Carrie has a YouTube channel and put something up yesterday that caught my eye.  It’s a satirical parody of the crisis in the Ukraine and that thin-skinned Russ...

New York, NY —With the capping off of the symbolic tower that replaced the World Trade Center I thought I’d show you the latest TSA folly.  It’s in the picture above. No matter how you analyze the September 11, 2001 terror attack on America it was the result of FAA ’s fear of armed pilots and off duty cops.   Then there was the cultural weakness of Americans in general. First I blame the new American Nanny Culture that seemed to dictate that American plane passengers must sit and wait for authorities to deal with crime instead of resorting to self-help for survival.  Many passengers actually thought they were really doing something helpful by calling 911 from their doomed aircraft. Politicians honored the “heroic” actions of the brave young men on Flight 93 .  Actually they too were brainwashed by the Nanny Culture because their actions only came after the cockpit was breached. They did nothing until after they took votes among themselves...

San Diego, CA —Yesterday Sheriff Bill Gore announced that he wouldn’t appeal the decision in Peruta vs. County of San Diego . That of course was the ruling that struck down California’s ability to obstruct the issuance of concealed weapon permits to law-abiding people requesting them.   The permits were nearly impossible to obtain in the state's most populous jurisdictions.   Officials had the power to arbitrarily and capriciously deny permits.   Only the politically powerful, very wealthy or connected applicants got the permits. Some California Sheriffs would routinely and nefariously sell the permits to their campaign contributors.   Under the now invalidated law CCW permit applicants had to prove "moral fitness" and a compelling need for the added protection.   Those nebulas factors were so incredibly vague that they were void.  Despotic California sheriffs and police chiefs got away with violating the Second Amendment rights of citizens for ...
