Bix Weir : Financial Crash Coming, War with Russia-China to Protect US Dollar, Ferguson Police Action

How long can they keep this Ponzi scheme of an economy game going? Bix Weir of http://RoadToRoota.com contends, “It’s almost exactly like the “Wizard of Oz” and the little man behind the curtain. He’s sitting in the basement of the U.S. Treasury and New York Fed orchestrating all these players to do what they are supposed to do. They get all the banks to rig every market to make sure the system stays together. It’s hit a point now that it’s so big and so unwieldy that they want it to crash, so we can move on to something else.” Weir goes on to say, “There are two groups that want it to crash. The bankers, because they know they are in trouble because of so many misdeeds. They want it to crash so they can say who could have helped this. The whole world crashed, it wasn’t our fault.

Then, there are people in the United States that would love the system to crash because when the system crashes and the dollar crashes, all debt goes away. All electronic debt and all mortgage debt will be wiped out because these bankers will be bankrupt.

All debt will be gone because that is the biggest problem right now. . . . If all the debt is gone, then all the electronic assets will be gone too because the debt is somebody’s asset, and it is usually the bankers that claim that. This whole system will shut down. They have been ready to go back to some sort of gold backed system. This will be the biggest thing to happen in human history.”

Psychopaths in Government’ Outside The Box Interview with Stefan Verstappen & Jason Liosatos

My talk with Stefan Verstappen Director of the documentary 'Defence Against The Psychopath'. We talk about the shocking truth that humanity is controlled and suffering from dangerous psychopathic governments, who lack empathy, and who are dangerously ethically compromised, which is being mirrored by a society of struggling people under their control. We discuss our human predicament, and the urgency for us to re empower ourselves and take responsibility by controlling and steering our own destiny. Stefan explains typical psychopathic traits, how to protect ourselves from their influences, and offers some solutions to our predicament.

Dimitry Orlov -- "Permission to Steal Everything" and Thoughts ... ~ The Plane Truth PTS3108







Dmitry Orlov is a Russian-American engineer and a writer on subjects related to "potential economic, ecological and political decline and collapse in the United States," something he has called “permanent crisis”. Wikipedia

Dmitry Orlov's work has been a catalyst for getting a handle what is happening in the world today and what may happen tomorrow. With his signature tongue in cheek humor, Dmitry takes his in depth personal

experience of the USSR collapse and applies it to the USA and its familiar debt and death empire paradigm. I have to thank Dmitry for healing me of my delusion that politics can change anything when really politicians just a bunch of 'bad actors'. I am reviewing Dmitry's two books Reinventing Collapse and The Five stages of Collapse. I hope you enjoy the reviews and have a look at Dmitry's work.

Orlov believes collapse will be the result of huge military budgets, government deficits, an unresponsive political system and declining oil production.

URGENT: ISIS Beheads Kidnapped US Journalist James Foley, Video Posted Online

BREAKING NEWS: ISIS Says It Beheaded Kidnapped Journalist James Foley, Posts Graphic Video.
(IBT) Journalist James Foley, who was reportedly kidnapped in Syria in 2012, has been beheaded, a graphic video released by supposed Islamic State militants purports to show. The video appears to show Foley kneeling beside a man dressed in all black. It begins with a speech by President Obama announcing the U.S. military would begin targeted airstrikes against the Islamic State, the group that has declared a caliphate across parts of Syria and Iraq also known as ISIS, to stop its advance on Erbil in Iraqi Kurdistan.

The video switches to a black screen with white writing that reads: "A Message to America." Foley then begins to recite a message, presumably written for him by ISIS, about his "real killer" -- America. At the end of the video, the executioner begins sawing at Foley's neck with a knife. After a blackout, the last image appears to show Foley's head, detached, lying on top of his body.

Michael Rivero is the webmaster of http://whatreallyhappened.com/ and host of the What Really Happened radio shows on the Republic Broadcasting Network. Formerly with NASA, Michael transitioned his image processing skills (along with a brief stint as an actor) into the then-new motion picture computer animation field and has worked on films such as "Star Trek", "The Day After Tomorrow", and has supervised visual effects on "Brainscan," "LOST", and "Hawaii Five-0." Michael has taken a sabbatical from film work to focus all his efforts on peace activism.

Since that sudden beginning, Michaels website has expanded to cover diverse topics including the JFK assassination, the accidental shoot-down of TWA 800, election fraud, health issues, Saddams non-existent nuclear weapons, 9-11, the economy, and of course, the lies used to trick the United States into wars of conquest on Afghanistan, Iraq, and now Iran. Michael resides in Hawaii with his wife Claire, who is a composer and creates much of theme music used on the What Really Happened radio show.

Benjamin Fulford - August 18, 2014: The Benjamin Fulford X files

Notice to readers, this is the last of a four week series of reports on non-time sensitive issues, starting next week we will return to coverage of the most recent world developments.

As a result of getting involved with various secret societies, this writer has experienced, usually with witnesses present, a series of extraordinary events that can only be classified as X files material.

The first time strange things started to happen was in 2007 immediately after this writer issued a public challenge to the families that secretly control the world via the Federal Reserve Board.

At first I would wake up with unknown words in my mind and an irresistible urge to look them up in the dictionary. For example, one morning I woke up with the phrase “Fibonacci numbers” in my head. Upon looking it up I found out it was a set of numbers used to explain natural growth that was conceived by the medieval mathematician of that name. Fibonachi was also responsible for teaching the mathematics of usury to the group of families like the Del Bancos, the Medici and the Borgia who would eventually go on to found the Federal Reserve Board.

Another time I woke up with the phrase “post-chronometric dialudes,” in my mind. I also had to look that up. A dialude is something that has been diluted, like the salt in salt water. Shortly after that, I was invited to a gathering where people claiming to be non-humans in human form put on a performance where the reenacted putting the planet earth back together by gathering the dust from its explosion.

The message I got was that this planet had been already destroyed once and that members of an advanced civilization had put it back together for us and given us a chance to get it right this time around.

There was more to that. Shortly before being invited to meet the head of an Asian secret society, somebody anonymously sent me a Chinese translation of Haruki Murakami’s book “Kafka on the Shore.” When I gave it to the head of the Asian secret society he asked me why I was giving the book to him and I answered that it somehow felt appropriate. Later that year when I visited Canada, the customs agent started asking me what I thought about Haruki Murakami and his book “Kafka on the Shore.” When I returned to Japan I found an English copy of the book on my bookshelf. So, I read it. The gist of that novel was that reality was going to be rebooted in a way that put an end to past wrongs.

Maybe some organization went to a lot of trouble to do this but, in any case, it was definitely X files as far as I was concerned.

Another episode happened when I visited the head of a different secret society in China. My flight involved changing planes in Taiwan. Inside Taipei airport I went to look for a common Taiwanese treat known as Senka (仙果)。I asked passersby where I could buy some and they pointed in a certain direction. As I walked there I got the very strange impression that the hallway kept getting longer and longer and would never end. I finally gave up. Later, after a successful meeting with the secret society people in mainland China, I found a shop right next to the meeting place that sold Taiwanese Senka.

Then, on my return to Japan, there was a shop selling nothing but Senka right beside the airport lounge where there had been none before. I felt like a character in a pc game being given a digital treat for passing a hurdle.

There were a lot of episodes of this sort taking place when I met members of various Asian secret societies. For example, objects like gold pendants of the virgin Mary, a turd-like substance with a .88 diamond embedded in it, a golden dragon and more seemed to spontaneously materialize. Also, objects in my house kept changing in subtle ways. For example, I had a paper bag of mate tea that had broken so I put it all in a plastic bag. However, it seemed to spontaneously revert to the paper bag. I also remember events that I experience as having taken place slightly differently in the past. It was as if they rebooted reality time and time again and each time some little details would change. Either that or somebody was trying to mess with my mind by breaking into my house and changing things around.

There was also a lot of out of this world stuff going on when I went to Italy to meet with members of the P2 Freemason lodge. In Rome I was taken to a secret P2 gathering place where I was shown a projector that could project a 25 mile wide image of the virgin Mary into the sky. They also showed me weird 3d mirror like portraits they said were portals into other dimensions. Here is a picture of the meeting place:

Later, Vincenzo Mazzara, a “Cavalier of the Teutonic Knights” took me on a tour of P2 hotspots in Milan. He showed me a church were a carving of snake wrapping itself around a cross was on prominent display. Then he took me to a cathedral where he showed me a stained glass window featuring the Black Sun the P2 worship. While looking at it, I felt like I was standing on a cloud at the edge of a pitch black, cold, life sucking void. Then I saw what seemed to be a black and white whirlpool generating all the colours of the rainbow. Here is a photo of the Black Sun.

The conclusion I have drawn from these and other unworldly experiences is that this reality is some sort of digital construct. It is the only explanation that makes sense. Why else did human space exploration stop at the moon? Why are anomalous objects being found all over the place?

http://blog.world-mysteries.com/science/top-10-unexplained-ancient-artifacts-fact-or-fiction/

Perhaps we are like SuperMario in a Nintendo game trying to leave the game machine and finding out we live in a limited reality. Perhaps the anomalous objects are leftovers from previous “game sessions” or different games.

If that is the case, then we humans must figure out a way hacking the operating system we know of as the planet earth in order to upgrade it. This can be done, for example, by altering our genes so we can become immortal, by building new virtual realities even more realistic than this one, creating new senses and doing other things.

We also need to overthrow the ruling class that has kept us like sheep in pens for all these years. If we succeed in this then all sorts of wonderful things are possible.
Next week, we will get back to the here and now world we all share and work on ways to making this reality better.

The Global Economy Is In a Depression -- Jim Rickards

Jim Rickards, author of The Death of Money, was interviewed on RT. Jim checks off a daunting list of countries around the world experiencing economic difficulties and offers analysis of what is really going on.

What’s happening in Germany is happening all over the world. Germany’s economy contracted… Italy’s already contracted. France has two quarters in a row of zero GDP. The United States in the first half [of 2014]… did not even grow 1%… China is slowing down, and of course, Japan fell off a cliff. If you look around the world, it looks like we’re going into a global recession, except I would say this is a continuation of a global depression that began in 2007… This is not a normal recovery, not a normal business cycle…

The Eurozone has been in a depression since the financial crisis and economic growth within Euroland has been much worse than in the US. As economic growth in the second quarter of 2014 came in at zero, Europe doesn’t seem to be breaking out of this "depression" anytime soon. Erin weighs in. Then, Erin talks to author and economist Jim Rickards, who is bullish on Europe’s political cohesion and nowhere near as downbeat on its economy as others. Take a look at what he has to say about it. After the break, Erin is joined by RT correspondent Manila Chan to figure out where Atlantic City went wrong and explore any possibilities – if any – they have left. And in Best of the Week, Erin reviews some of the week’s greatest segments including commentary from William White, Bruce Schneier, Dan Geer, and Kate Pearce – ranging from opinions on quantitative easing to mass surveillance. Enjoy!

Staying Focused In A Hyper World -- Coast To Coast AM August 16, 2014

Guests:     John Gray, John Robbins

Joining host Lisa Garr (email), John Gray, author of "Men are from Mars, Women are from Venus," discussed his latest book, "Staying Focused in a Hyper World: Natural Solutions for ADHD, Memory and Brain Performance." Gray offered practical information to help increase brain focus, memory and restore love and passion in your relationships. He shared the case of a 13-year-old boy from Russia who had been abandoned by his parents, developed ADHD, and been on medication for it for five years. Gray said he gave the boy some natural supplements and the ADHD symptoms went away immediately. In addition, he pointed out that his own battle with the symptoms of Parkinson's had been arrested for the past 12 years by a protocol of natural supplements.

Gray spoke about the dramatic rise in children with ADHD (attention deficit hyperactivity disorder), OCD (obsessive-compulsive disorder), Asperger's, and Autism (1 in 50), all of which have increased 35-fold since 1980. Though the manifestation is different the same thing has happened to adults, he continued, noting that more than 50 percent of people over 84 have Alzheimer's. According to Gray, all of the aforementioned disorders are symptoms of a condition in the brain called 'oxidative stress,' which occurs when the body's natural antioxidants and detoxification mechanisms are overwhelmed by free radicals.

"The same thing that helps children get through ADHD, helps adults make commitments in relationships, keeps the libido going, keeps the brain functions going, balances the hormones," Gray revealed. He advised a cleansing regiment of liquids for a few days to help remove toxicity from the body. Gray recommended various supplements to deal with symptoms related to oxidative stress, including liposomal vitamin C, a memory supplement called Potential, omega-3 fatty acids, and Membrane Complex by Dr. Hans Nieper. He also warned about the dangers of taking acetaminophen, as it inhibits the manufacture of the antioxidant glutathione.
Food Revolution

In the first hour, author and heir to the Baskin-Robbins empire, John Robbins, talked about his work over the last 25 years looking at healthy lifestyles and the quality of our food supply. The industrial food system in the U.S. produces cheap processed food that is making us fat and sick, Robbins revealed, adding that it may ultimately bankrupt the country as an ever increasing amount of money must be spent on disease management.

He denounced modern meat production for its cruelty to animals, environmental destruction, and contribution to heart disease. Robbins blamed the introduction of genetically modified organisms on tripling the rate of diabetes and quadrupling the rate of food allergies over the last 20 years, and cited the need for mandatory labeling of GMO foods. He railed against Coca-Cola and pointed out that the corporation's Vitaminwater product is junk food disguised as healthy food. Robbins called for a food revolution in which we get back to what are bodies really need—whole live foods.

Alex Jones Show: Monday (8-18-14) Fritz Springmeier

On this Monday, August 18 edition of the Alex Jones Show, Alex reports on the overnight riots in Ferguson, Missouri, in which protestors and police clashed with tear gas, flash bangs and Molotov cocktails, resulting in one of the worst clashes in Ferguson. A source within Homeland Security reportedly said the rioting and looting were “encouraged and exacerbated by undercover DHS agents posing as members of the Black Panthers.” It would be well within the government's prerogative to deploy provocateurs to stir violence that can be used to program the American public into accepting a militarized police state. On today's show, Fritz Springmeier, author of Bloodlines of the Illuminati, explains how secret societies shape today's news, both domestically and internationally, as well as their undue influence over the population.

Robin Williams' Last Message to Vivian Waller

Robin Williams sent hopeful message to cancer suffering woman.
(CBS) A terminally ill woman in New Zealand got a private video message from Robin Williams just months before his death.
New Zealand's Sunday Star-Times reports that Williams recorded an inspirational message for 21-year-old Vivian Waller, who is suffering from lung, bowel and liver cancer, after learning that one of the five things on her bucket list was to meet him.

"Sending all my love to you, Jack and Sophie," Williams says in the video, referring to Waller's husband and their 1-year-old daughter. The couple married in February, accomplishing one of the other items on the list she made following her diagnosis in January.

"Mark this off your bucket list," Williams continues in the video. "What's going on? It's all right, it's all right, it's all right. I'm just channeling Matthew McConaughey. Much love to you, baby."

He ended the message by blowing a kiss to Waller.

Williams took his own life last week, at the age of 63.
(Stuff.co.nz) Before taking his own life, actor Robin Williams sent a message of hope, support and "love" to a terminally ill New Zealand woman.

Vivian Waller, 21, is in an Auckland hospice suffering lung, bowel and liver cancer.
When Waller, nee Fittall, was diagnosed in January she drew up a bucket list that had five wishes on it: to get married, celebrate her 21st birthday, see her daughter Sophie celebrate her first birthday, travel to Rarotonga and meet Williams.
Waller was too ill to travel to the United States to try to meet Williams, so one of her friends reached out to the comedian and he recorded a short video clip which he emailed to the family a few months ago.
Waller's husband Jack said his wife was thrilled beyond belief with Williams' heartfelt and personal video message.
The message was short but very sweet: "Hi Vivian . . . it's Robin Williams here saying 'hey girl what's going on down there in New Zealand'.
"I'm sending all my love to you, Jack and Sophie . . . knock this off your bucket list."
Williams then breaks into brief song, explains that he's "channelling Matthew McConaughey" before signing off with - "much love to you baby".
Share this story on Facebook.
Jack has yet to discuss Williams' suicide with his wife, as it's a topic he finds too difficult to broach.
Currently in care at Hibiscus Hospice, Waller is still fighting but, says Jack, is resigned, after a series of failed attempts, to the fact that chemotherapy is no longer an option.

"Viv struggles with a lack of energy and it is quite difficult for her to concentrate," he said. "We are just enjoying the time we have together. We take things a day at a time."

He decided to open up about the very personal message from Williams because "we love him, we want to show people how awesome a person he was".

The Wallers married in February, a month after finding out Viv was terminally ill.

Fundraising from around the country meant they were able to pull together a wedding and honeymoon in just 10 days. A couple of months later Sophie had her first birthday.

The only thing Vivian couldn't cross off her bucket list was the trip to Rarotonga.

Williams, 63, took his own life last week after years of battling depression and anxiety. He had also been diagnosed with Parkinson's Disease.

Ron Paul: Police Are Supposed To Be Peace Officers, Not Warriors!

Ronald Ernest "Ron" Paul is an American physician, author, and former Republican Party congressman, two-time Republican presidential candidate, and the presidential nominee of the Libertarian Party in the 1988 U.S. Presidential Election. Wikipedia

Congressman Ron Paul of Texas enjoys a national reputation as the premier advocate for liberty in politics today. Dr. Paul is the leading spokesman in Washington for limited constitutional government, low taxes, free markets, and a return to sound monetary policies based on commodity-backed currency. He is known among both his colleagues in Congress and his constituents for his consistent voting record in the House of Representatives: Dr. Paul never votes for legislation unless the proposed measure is expressly authorized by the Constitution. In the words of former Treasury Secretary William Simon, Dr. Paul is the "one exception to the Gang of 535" on Capitol Hill. Ron Paul was born and raised in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania. He graduated from Gettysburg College and the Duke University School of Medicine, before proudly serving as a flight surgeon in the U.S. Air Force during the 1960s. He and his wife Carol moved to Texas in 1968, where he began his medical practice in Brazoria County. As a specialist in obstetrics/gynecology, Dr. Paul has delivered more than 4,000 babies! He and Carol, who reside in Surfside Beach, Texas, are the proud parents of five children and have seventeen grandchildren. While serving in Congress during the late 1970s and early 1980s, Dr. Paul's limited-government ideals were not popular in Washington. He served on the House Banking committee, where he was a strong advocate for sound monetary policy and an outspoken critic of the Federal Reserve's inflationary measures. He also was a key member of the Gold Commission, advocating a return to a gold standard for our currency. He was an unwavering advocate of pro-life and pro-family values. Dr. Paul consistently voted to lower or abolish federal taxes, spending, and regulation, and used his House seat to actively promote the return of government to its proper constitutional levels. In 1984, he voluntarily relinquished his House seat and returned to his medical practice. Dr. Paul returned to Congress in 1997 to represent the 14th Congressional district of Texas. He serves on the House of Representatives Financial Services Committee, and the International Relations committee. On the Financial Services Committee, Rep.

Why a Stock Market CRASH Will Cause Major Loss in Pension Funds!

In an attempt to seek increased profits, the bankers have decided to use pension fund money to gamble with. This has only exacerbated the debt problem as they continue to EVAPORATE the wealth of the citizens. It is commonplace now for bankers to receive massive bonuses before the worst of the worst comes down upon us. Pension funds have already been looted and this will be widespread causing major upheaval.





Many states and cities have been under-paying or non-paying their required contributions into public pension funds for years, causing massive shortfalls that are seldom reported upon by local outlets.
As a solution to the fiscal crises, unions and voters are being told that a key solution is seeking higher yields or more diversity through "alternative investments,

Its Official! Martial Law In Ferguson: Governor Brings In 'National Guard'

Here’s a legal definition of martial law: “The exercise of government and control by military authorities over the civilian population of a designated territory.”

Early Monday, Missouri Governor Jay Nixon ordered the National Guard to Ferguson, Missouri following another night of violence.

Nixon had previously ordered a Midnight to 5AM curfew but it has not stopped the insanity. Sunday Night/Early Monday Morning shots were fired at police and Molotov Cocktails were thrown.

Though Ferguson has already been under an unofficial state of martial law, there is no more debate. The militarized police state is not technically the military, but now it can not be denied. Ferguson is under martial law.

ALERT! Mob Destroys 'Ebola' Center In Liberia, Infected People Flee In All Directions!

Residents of a Liberian slum have looted a quarantined clinic for patients suspected of carrying the deadly virus, carrying off items including "bloody sheets and mattresses," now officials fear "Ebola could soon spread through the capital's largest slum."

The facility held approximately 30 patients, most of whom fled during the raid by area residents angry that patients were brought to the location from other parts of Monrovia. The patients are set to be transferred to the Ebola center as Monrovia's largest hospital once they are located, again.


West Point residents went on a "looting spree," stealing items from the clinic that were likely infected, said a senior police official, who spoke on condition of anonymity because he was not authorized to brief the press. The residents took medical equipment and mattresses and sheets that had bloodstains, he said.

... "All between the houses you could see people fleeing with items looted from the patients," the official said, adding that he now feared "the whole of West Point will be infected."

ALERT! Widespread Militarization of Police Forces In America! $2.6 Billion Worth of Equipment!

I-Team is uncovering thousands of pieces of military equipment meant for the battlefield that are instead now in the hands of local police forces statewide.

From high powered military grade rifles to combat helicopters, law enforcement agencies statewide are cashing in on a federal program that provides battle-ready equipment to agencies in your backyard. For the past two decades, Illinois officials have used the Federal Law Enforcement Support Office or LESO 1033 program to outfit law enforcement departments with the latest in military grade equipment and technology. Distribution of weapons as part of the program has come under new scrutiny after the widespread utilization of military grade equipment this week to counter protests in Ferguson, Missouri after a police officer shot and killed teenager Michael Brown there this past weekend.

Science & the Future, Ebola & Biowarfare -- Coast To Coast AM - August 6, 2014

Coast To Coast AM - August 6, 2014 Science & the Future, Ebola & Biowarfare






Guests:     Michio Kaku, Steve Quayle

In the first half, theoretical physicist, author, and popularizer of science, Dr. Michio Kaku, discussed cutting edge research into the mind, as well as news in cosmology and physics. We're entering a "golden age of cosmology" with exciting questions about the nature of the universe on the brink of being solved, he remarked. And with the discovery of some 2,000 exoplanets orbiting other stars, we can do an unprecedented census of our own "backyard" in the Milky Way galaxy, he noted. In physics, looking beyond the Higgs Boson particle, we hope to find "sparticles," high-vibrating super-particles that could be related to the Big Bang, he continued.

In the frontiers of mind science, we have the development of the Connectome project, by which we can map all neural pathways of the mind, and bring back memories, sensations, and emotions. And so in the not-so-distant future, "we'll have two discs, one that is the genome by which we can bring back our body, and the other is the Connectome, by which we'll be able to bring back our mind. And you put it together, and what you get is immortality," he declared. Kaku also spoke about how a downloaded mind, instead of living in a computer, could control a robot body as its surrogate, and how this would be especially ideal for space exploration.

-------------------------------------

In the latter half, author and researcher Steve Quayle talked about the Ebola outbreak, biowarfare, genetic experimentation, and related topics. The US govt. actually patented a number of deadly Ebola strains, and Quayle believes the disease may have been biologically manipulated so that it could become airborne. A person can be a carrier of Ebola for up to two weeks before showing symptoms, and this is an indicator "that this is a biowarfare weapons agent that has been released on purpose. I don't think it's the final release, but a 'test and tweak' release," to see how different populations and gene groups respond, he asserted. Quayle related the mysterious deaths of microbiologists as part of a plan to hide the tracks of those connected to the biowarfare research.

In the bioweapons development arena, "you never generate a pathogen, without concurrently generating a vaccine," and accordingly, it's been announced that a vaccine for Ebola is ready for testing, Quayle stated. The goal of the Illuminati is to reduce the world's population, and with their bio-engineered weapons they can be race, and gene-type specific-- "and Africa has always been called the test tube of wicked men's inventions," he remarked. He also touched on such subjects as the missing Malaysian jet, End Times prophecy, stargates, and the Nephilim's agenda to create hybrids.

Ferguson Killing - Real Death, or Staged Agitation Propaganda

 More on control through staged violence





Before you riot... make sure what you're rioting over is real. Before you protest, make sure you're not being sucked into a trap. There is shockingly little evidence that the "Michael Brown" murder is real, and a great deal of evidence that it is FAKE.

Agitation propaganda is the art of stirring people's emotions to do things they would otherwise not do. Often, it is used to prod people into violence, or bait them into a trap.

The Saint Louis military occupation has been planned and exercised singe 2012... just as the military occupation of Boston had been planned for years before the fake Boston Matathon "bombing."

FERGUSON RIOTS - STATE OF EMERGENCY and CURFEW in FERGUSON Declared by Missouri Governor

The governor of Missouri declared a state of emergency and imposed an overnight curfew in Ferguson on Saturday, in an attempt to quell disturbances that have rocked the city since police shot dead an unarmed teenager a week ago.

The unexpected announcement by Jay Nixon, made at a raucous press conference, marked another shift in law enforcement tactics which have veered from overtly militarised to inclusive and conciliatory in an effort to contain protests over last Saturday’s killing of Michael Brown, 18.

Nixon, a Democrat, said the latest measure were necessary after a small group of looters smashed windows, lobbed bottles and ransacked three stores on Friday night. The looters sabotaged not community’s peaceful protests, he said.

“We must have – and maintain – peace,” he said. “The eyes of the world are watching.” The curfew was scheduled to start at midnight and be lifted at 5am, local time.

As the curfew approached, hundreds of people gathered in the main street where clashes have taken place over the past week.

Dozens of police officers dressed in riot gear, some holding assault rifles, started filing in more than two hours before midnight, lining the street and guarding store fronts from potential looters. Several people called abuse to them as they passed.

Police presence is in question after St. Louis County and Missouri State Highway Patrol officers left the scene in Ferguson once looters began attacking businesses overnight.

Protesters believe the media has started to confuse the difference between themselves and the looters. Fights have begun on the streets as well as social media with some believing this has become similar to a game of chess.

According to one peaceful protester, several of them literally put their bodies in between the looters and the different businesses. She feels their efforts were forced after several police officers got into their cars and drove away.

Armored vehicles rolled back onto the streets of Ferguson early Saturday, as riot police faced off with looters in the Missouri town gripped by protests since the fatal police shooting of an unarmed black teen. The violence broke the brief period of calm that had settled over Ferguson, Missouri, after outrage over the shooting of Michael Brown spilled over.

Ferguson Fuels ‘kill switch’ Debate
Could give law enforcement the power to shut down cellphones during emergency situations, possibly including public demonstrations Let’s be honest – Ferguson, Missouri is under military occupation right now, and the entire world is watching in horror as militarized police fire tear gas and rubber bullets at unarmed protesters. Yes, the rioting and looting in Ferguson needed to be stopped. order out of chaos However, there is no excuse for the brutal tactics now being employed. , police snipers were even using laser scopes to target protesters that were obviously unarmed. Sadly, this is just a preview of what is coming to America in the years ahead. As the economy falls apart and people become even more angry and even more frustrated, there will be a lot more incidents of civil unrest like we have just witnessed in Ferguson. federal government and our overly militarized police will seek to crush those uprisings with overwhelming force.post-apocalyptic disaster movie.

Money Laundering and the U.S. Economy: Small Business, Crime & Corruption (1990)

James Jarrell Pickle (October 11, 1913 -- June 18, 2005), also known as "J.J. 'Jake' Pickle", was a United States Representative from the 10th congressional district of Texas from 1963 to 1995.

Pickle was born in Roscoe, Texas. He acquired his nickname Jake from a mischievous character he portrayed in a family play when he was four years old. Pickle was an Eagle Scout and recipient of the Distinguished Eagle Scout Award from the Boy Scouts of America.

Pickle attended the public schools in Big Spring and received his Bachelor of Arts from the University of Texas at Austin where he was a member of the 1934 Southwest Conference championship swimming team and the student body president as a senior in 1937. He was also a member of the Friar Society. Pickle was introduced by future governor John Connally to Congressman Lyndon Johnson, who served as his political mentor. He assisted the latter in his 1940 election campaign and assisted Lady Bird Johnson in running the Congressional office. When the United States entered WWII, Pickle joined the Navy as a gunnery officer and was stationed on the USS St. Louis and the USS Miami, surviving three torpedo attacks. When the war ended, he, Johnson, and Connally helped found a radio station (KVET) in Austin, Texas. After 10 years in the advertising business, he joined the Democratic Election Executive Committee of Texas in 1957.

From 1961 to 1963, Pickle was a member of the Texas Employment Commission, since renamed the Texas Workforce Commission. He served under appointment of Governor Price Daniel.

Pickle was elected as a Democrat to the 88th Congress, by special election, to fill the vacancy caused by the resignation of United States Representative Homer Thornberry, who became a U.S. District judge. Pickle was reelected 15 times before retiring at the conclusion of his 1993-94 term. His campaign trademark was a "squeaky pickle" rubber toy he handed out to those he met in area parades.

While in the House, Pickle rose through the ranks to become the third ranking Democrat on the House Ways and Means Committee. He was one of only six Southern Congressmen to vote for the Civil Rights Act of 1964, and went on to play a key role in passing major Social Security reform legislation in 1983 to save the system from insolvency. The reforms increased the payroll tax rate, slowly increased the full benefit retirement age to 67 and taxed some of the benefits. He considered this legislation his greatest accomplishment.

Pickle was able to steer research money to the University of Texas, and today the University's J. J. Pickle Research Campus is named in his honor. He was influential in the city of Austin, as well, most notably for relocating Austin's main airport from Robert Mueller Municipal Airport to Austin-Bergstrom International Airport. He was also instrumental in bringing the SEMATECH and the MCC consortia to Austin.

Before Pickle left for World War II in 1942, he married Ella Nora "Sugar" Critz. They had one daughter together. Critz died in 1952 and Pickle married Beryl Bolton McCarroll in 1960. Pickle was diagnosed with prostate cancer in 1991 and lymphoma in 2001. He died at his home in Austin on June 18, 2005 of complications from his cancer and is interred at the Texas State Cemetery there.

Peggy Pickle was Jake Pickle's only daughter. She still makes contributions to the University of Texas at Austin on her father's behalf. In 1997, Jake and Peggy Pickle wrote a book together called Jake with a foreword by former Texas governor Ann Richards.

The Prison States of America

An extremely problematic phenomenon in America today is the ever growing industry of privatized prisons across America, generally referred to as the Prison Industrial Complex, as well as skyrocketing rates of incarceration that leave the rest of the nations of the world trailing behind.

The issue ties together many social aspects such as the connection between the massive rate of imprisonment for non-violent drug use and rampant poverty, as well as the growing political influence of private prison industries and companies that thrive on inmate populations as cheap and economic forms of labor.

As this problem grows larger and larger, the prisons in the United States fill up continuously, based very much on a mentality that years of incarceration can fix pretty much any problem.

The United States has, by far and away, the highest rate of incarceration of any nation in the world, as it imprisons approximately 743 people per 100,000 across the country.

Today US prisons are filled to the breaking point with 2.3 million people, far more per capita than any country in the world; 1.6 times as many as it's closest competitor, Russia, and 6 times as many as in China.

From 20 years ago, the US' prison population quadrupled in size to 2.3 million, making building prisons the fastest growing industry in the United States. Seventy Five percent of Americans in prison are there because of non-violent crimes, particularly in light of the "three strikes and you're out" laws that serve out millions of 25 years to life sentences every year to those that have committed three non-violent crimes like possession of illegal drugs.

Because criminals locked up in prisons lose most of their rights in many states across America, the Prison Industrial Complex creates a population of people who cannot vote, cannot contest their working environments, and can work well below the limits of minimum wage, thus creating a very lucrative field that has become the staple of the economic structure for entire communities, particularly in the Midwest.
