Al Qaeda threatens France for perceived anti-burqa stance

http://www.cnn.com/2009/WORLD/europe/06/30/france.burkas.al.qaeda/index.html




Al Qaeda is not so bright it seems like they want to retaliate against anyone with different views,but to tell the truth i think the women should wear what ever they want but they should realize that they are in a different country with different beliefs and they should discard the veil if they want to,i see women here in Canada with veils and blankets covering their bodies and faces.

Courtroom brawl

out of all the places to brawl in the courthouse.Its insensitive that the suspect was said to smile at a murder victim's kin,it seems like he was going to get off easy of his charges or just plain stupid. But on a more human stand point if a guy kills my family member and smiles at me in court because he is going to be acquitted i would wait til he is released,if not let him stink in jail.

Micheal jackson: The Death of Peter Pan? Wheres the respect?

http://www.time.com/time/arts/article/0,8599,1907344,00.html

This man and icon is dead and this guy calls him peter pan? I don't care if many people think hes creepy and unusual,if he was truly guilty of every scandal and charges it would be very easy to convict him. To me i just think these people pressing charges just want his money from the lawyers to the children's parents,it may ruin his image to some,but doesn't affected what he has accomplished.I respect him as a musician and singer i don't know him as a person,i do know he is a humanitarian.These charges doesn't make him look creepy to me,its his skin disease and many nose surgery's.His scandals does shows how he has issues with his childhood.I don't believe he causes "scandals" or problems for himself but its all how we perceive them,there is always two sides to the story.
Other than his downsides his troubles with children doesn't overshadow his success,he will go down in history as a musical multi-generational and multicultural icon hand down.When i heared the news i didn't get emotional,im not the type of person to get worked up over some one i don't know personally,i loves his music i was never a historical fan,may he forever rest in peace in his next life.

Trooper Claims Dashboard Cam Upholds His Actions

http://www.foxnews.com/story/0,2933,526495,00.html

I wonder if this guy saw the same video the officers lawyer stated "James claims the dashboard camera upholds his client's story, showing that he acted appropriately in subduing paramedic Maurice White." I didn't know he needed to be subduing,some communication would of been necessary,obviously if the officers was listening instead of yelling and making threats,and choking Maurice White they would know that he is in change of the situation as far as the ambulance and the patient.The paramedic would comply but no one can comply especially when the officer is unreasonable, remember he has a patient in need to go to the hospital,and he is the only paramedic for the whole damn county.

NAACP Rallies for Cop Killer on Death Row

http://www.foxnews.com/story/0,2933,527944,00.html


I read this and thought i might as well spread the word,the south as well as the northern states has a long way to go. I hope they are able to get that hearing,i understand that alot of innocent people get killed on death row.

Iran Protesters: Civil Rights movement?

the Iranian Supreme leader doesn't seen to civil.An 11 million vote difference,i thought Iranian population was dominantly under 30 and likely to vote for Mousavi.Something isnt right.I wonder if the supreme leader will have the protestere killed?

Food bank users rise

Not just in Canada but the U.S im sure,the recession is huring everyone,this alone is the reason why Obama needs to overhaul the financial system,there is a domino effect cause of the greedy wealthy that can care less about the suffering.Its all about profit right? Obama good luck.

ISPs must help police snoop on internet under new bill

http://www.cbc.ca/technology/story/2009/06/18/tech-internet-police-bill-intercept-electronic-communications.html

I don't think this bill will just go after organized crime,terrorists and pedophiles,like a man said in this video i agree that they will get all the petty crimes,music video,and maybe porn even if its not child porn,this is a big opportunity for them to abuse their power on another level.This law hasn't been passed yet so consider this a heads up.

Students retalition stabbing

http://www.citynews.ca/news/news_35455.aspx

This is definitely sad,i was in a similar situation numerous times in high school,i was often offered guns and i contemplating weather or hot i should buy one, with my conscience bothering me luckily i didn't. Many of my class mates pissed me of to the point that i wanted to retaliate with a weapon,but i never got provoked with a beating of school grounds. These guys say that its sad that society is becoming violent, and often in schools. The reality is that since i was in school nothing changed but the numbers or these situations are rising,i don't condone what these brothers did but i understand and i cant really blame them,they will have to chock this up to experience like i did.20 people witnessed the beating and recorded it on their phones,nobody broke it up,so pathetic.I'm not going to say the brothers are hot headed and react before thinking,remember they went home and came back. Consequences will definitely put these brothers in check but wont necessarily change them for the better. If i got a beating do you think i would respond with love? Lets be realistic,we have to respect each other.

Rating U.S. health care

I see the cost but imagine the debt. This is just the health care not just housing or insurance or any other bills the typical American has, all this after these people lost their jobs you do the math.

PETA needs to get a life its not the end of the world if he kills a FLY!!.Are they going to give him a tissue for stepping on a bug? get a life get laid.

Obama tries to overhaul U.S financial system

Its good for him to clean up the system and the corrupt ways of doing business at the enspence of the people.People who are against this are just mad that they wont be able to screw over people for profit,the whole financial mentality and in some cases lifestyles has to change they really need to prioritise.This is not a double edge sword as this guy in this video says,this wont restrict any one it just puts the people in or running financial system in check.I don't see this passing in congress because everyone is a whore for money in the U.S,the res plenty of them all across the government from congress to governors,their will be allot of give and take,i bet the republicans will attach a bill to let gun owners carry guns to lord knows where.What a two-faced country.

Trooper vs. paramedic scuffle

http://abcnews.go.com/video/playerIndex?id=7845333

I cant stand cops power tripping they cant hear the patient screaming?,the paramedic didn't do any thing to warrant the trooper to put his hands on him and being rude.Ambulance light on or not,that doesn't warrant the cops to tailgate and cutting off the ambulance,the trooper doesn't have a leg to stand on i don't care what his attorney says.This CNN doesn't give enough context so here's a link to ABC news link to the video.

Ignorant Israelis

Why would god tell them to take someone else's land? That doesn't sound to godly to me,only foolish people live buy a book with no proof of the distant past,it this is how god really feels how we should treat our fellow man,then he must be the devil in disguise

Violent Iranian election aftermath

http://www.cbc.ca/world/story/2009/06/15/iran-tehran-election856.html

As long as Ayatollah Khamenei is the number one guy this isn't a true democratic election he tells the Iranians who to vote for and the prime minister doesn't have much power to make a change.Big changes has to go through Ayatollah Khamenei,if Iran wants a better future he has to go,out with the old in with the new,i blame him for the aftermath and outcome of this Iran election.

Netanyahu rediculous speech

http://www.cbc.ca/world/story/2009/06/15/netanyahu-speech-palestinians015.html

This guy and his hyper religious racists doesn't now whats right from wrong.I don't hate Jews,objecting to Israel settlement expansion and oppression doesn't make me a Jew hater,that reasoning has no logic or sense,that is their only response when they are addressed by others who oppose to what they are doing. Their will never be peace,Israel keeps on taking Palestinians keep on giving against their will.Netanyahu says settlements have NOTHING TO DO with the conflict,taking you enemy's land is not apart of the problem,obviously he knows nothing about Palestinians and whats going on,I'm bothered on so many levels.their will be never any common grown between these two oppositions,cause Israeli's have most of that ground,Israel want to much in any peace deal.

Anger Over Iranian Elections Erupts In Toronto

This is not just in protesting Toronto but in many places around the world,i wonder if these protesters outside Iran in other countries know that the government doesn't really care or cant really do any thing about Iran's vote,and i know that the people in other countries don't really care for the most part about the Iranian election. i understand the violence in Iran but violence in other part of the world because of the outcome,really doesn't make any sense causing violence on foreign soil.

American Jews reaction to Obama's speech in Cairo

I'm shocked to come across this video,a family member told me about this real talk documentary,its really a community or college radio,i guess the are on a local public access/community channel in their region.this video was taken in Israel and alot of American Israeli people look drunk,even though i believe people who speak drunken works have sober thoughts.They are bashing Obama for illogical reasons,typical ignorant American,one hates him because Obama wants to take away his gun rights.He was right, he doesn't follow politics and that's why he doesn't know Obama wont and doesn't intent to take away peoples guns.Besides that he still hates him.Even though in some parts of the world Israelis aren't considered white,well this group does and think they are white supremacists,its funny how people forget,the Nazis were the white supremacists and didn't consider them "real" white people.Its funny how the girl in this video is a political science major, she must be failing miserably,the U.S doesn't have a problem with Israel they were Ali's for years,the U.S is giving billions monthly to Israel for goodness sake,Israel has one of the top sophisticated army's in the world and also a nuclear powerhouse.Like many Americans she thinks hes a Muslim and terrorist.She doesn't know that he is trying to mend the American image in the Muslim world because they think we are over privileged assholes like these assholes in this video.Funny how they hate blacks but some of these idiots are wanna be Jamaicans,playing their Jewish reggae. One was cursing him for not changing America like his campaign promise,I'm sure a bunch Americans on the homeland not just American Jews.For the record,Obama doesn't want the Muslim world to love him he wants to repair the American image cause these guys don't help,just reinforce the American ignorance.I hope Obama stops funding to Israel and stops settlements.U.S has showed Israel they care,now Israel is like U.S over privileged ignorant racist Zionists.

Obama Writes Doctor's Note for Girl

http://abcnews.go.com/video/playerIndex?id=7821972

This is one of those rare good things you hear in the news, to bad the news is generally dominated by bad news and gossip.The news doesn't just tell the people whats going on it also inflames and reaffirm stereotypes with its selective storeys they print,also the reason people hate other people and create divided among people and ignorance.Back to this story this just shows how Barack is so down to earth and knows when not to take things so seriously,this is refreshing.

Obama takes health care plan to the people

Its good to see the president take health care reform to the people,i think this is necessary to make it clear to the people rather than commercials,the republicans and private companies are opposing to this through their commercials. If i was an American i would be offended by the misleading commercials. The republican Mitch McConnell telling the people that this new reform will destroy what people like about the care that they already have. He is talking about the few people and families who has a health care plan he is ignorant to the fact that there is a staggering amount of people with out a health care plan that they can afford.The only thing this reform will destroy is the ability for these private companies to exploit the people financially.This reform plan is just another OPTION for the people so they still have a choice.The republicans don't give people enough credit,the people know what they want.

Hate crime statistics

http://www.cnn.com/2009/POLITICS/06/11/navarrette.hate.crimes/index.html

There are arguments that claim that all sorts of crimes are motivated by hate,I'm sure there are many,but people who make that point seem that all crimes are motivated by hate and that's simply not true,other reasons are poverty and greed. The thought of hate crime rises really does surprise me,i guess there is more hardcore racists out there than i thought or a bigger demographic having a come out party.I don't believe that hate crimes deserve special punishment i believe they deserve harsher punishment. Racists are not just targeting black people,they are also harassing Latinos and Jewish people,and on that note the term anti-Semite is funny to me cause all racists are anti-black,anti-Latino or anybody that's non-white, lets just call them racists and in this case white supremacists.

Cop uses taser on grandma

Ifs funny how a cop twice her size and half her age has to resort to shoving and tazering,their just assholes,its not like shes 30+years younger where i can see he has to resort to shoving,but he didn't warn her about the traffic,hes just an ass. Also she agreed to sign the ticket so why this cop didn't allow her to sign it,what a power crazy asshole.

Hero Stephen Tyrone Johns killed in Holocaust Museum

I noticed,Stephen Tyrone Johns didn't get much attention,white supremacists hate blacks too,alot of sites don't mention hes black and don't talk about him as a person or his family,its all about holocaust and Jews,a black man getting shot my a white supremacist is no big deal?,its all about the holocaust museum.This guard who got shoot and died didn't get enough air play or info about him and the other guards to fended off the shooter. James Von Brunn gets more air play am i the only one that has a problem with this? I understand that there has to be whitnessess that saw what happened and needs to be documented but the news seem more concerned about the museum visitors not the only person who died and other guards that got hurt.If this was any where else other than a jewish holocaust meusium memorial no one would care about the white supremisist that killed a black man Stephen Tyrone Johns.

Divided on health care

The republicans and private insurers are upset cause they will loose money and cant financially rape the people for money.Its better for the people to have another option and wont get exploited buy the greedy private insurance plans.

White House was wrong about jobs in America

They are not considering that all the governors not accepting the stimulus money for their states,so alot of stimulus money not being used.

Voight on Obama: The president is a 'false prophet'

Since when did Obama said he was a prophet?Since when showing compassion and showing respect for the eastern world disastrous? This guy must be from another galaxy.I guess he like the Bush era constantly aggravating their enemies and remain ignorant on how to treat our fellow man.Since when talking with sense dignity and eloquence making America soft? Calling him a false profit,why Obama,why not any other president,talk about a hyper religious nut.One more question,how the hell is Obama and his policies oppressing the American nation? I guess this guy doesn't know Obama's approval rating.

Brown would have no trouble coaching Iverson again

http://www.nba.com/2009/playoffs2009/06/05/brown.iverson.ap/index.html


Alot of sports fans listen and believe the bias of some of these sports writers towards ball players,the swagger or attitude of some players rub fans or writers the wrong way and they believe that the players are something they are not and don't know any thing about the players personally,its really disgusting. Not many knows that they got along for the most part now and even back in his Philly days.Iverson always got a bad persona cause the way he dress talked or his reactions on and off the court theres always two sided to the story,but as far as the Pistons Nuggets trade,every on knows it was for cap space and he clearly didn't fit the pistons playing style,and he got bashed,it wasn't fair,for him and the pistons team. Basketball fans will love him or hate him but no in between,Charlotte or not there will be a team that can use Iverson. A cancer i think not,only hater fans will call him that,Iversont doesn't deserve to be demoted because he hasn't declined,he still has the skill set to drop 40+ points and 5+ assists and for a player who plays under the rim as well as he does there is not much of a decline in his game,unlike Vince Carter who is used to scoring over the rim he cant get up as high as he used to,but is clutch and can score 20+.It is disrespectful to ask him to step down and take fewer minutes,hes not as effective but who knows how this off season will turn out.

Crime rate rises House prices lower in nation's housing crisis

Bittersweet but more bitter than sweet,houses are cheaper,but bad banking at the customers expense is the main reason,the aftermath is sad.Houses are more reasonably priced,better than a half million,which is the price of many houses in Toronto,i do feel housed are overpriced,considering the material used to make them and the total square feet of these houses,what a ripp of.

Another Police Beating

So sad,standing doing what he was told,nothing warrant this beating,im so tired of this bull,did any one learn from rodney king?

Lebanon votes in high-stakes election

http://www.cbc.ca/world/story/2009/06/07/lebanon-vote.html

Hezbollah doesn't strike fear when i hear about this vote elections,alot of dumb assess want Lebanese to give up their citizenship or give up the Canadian citizenship,alot of these fools don't understand there two sides of the story is Hezbollah that evil or a terrorist i guess people don't know one man's terrorist is another man's freedom fighter. I don't like what Israel is doing to Palestine,but can you really blame resistance from Hezbollah,i mean lets be real after all these years people think that Israel wont have anyone retaliating against them.... please its human nature. Israel has been on a rampage for a long time,Westerners shouldn't get bent out shape if the Lebanese vote Hezbollah.

Jolie more powerful than Oprah?

http://www.cnn.com/2009/SHOWBIZ/06/03/forbes.celebrity.list/index.html

Jolie may be famous with Brad Pitt and adopting babies like Madonna,but she doesn't have the influence and power that Oprah has she has more money more companies,she can promote any author publisher movie also can touch peoples lives in a positive way with her positive messages.Jolie is just a movie superstar with a ridiculous amount of publicity hasn't put out a movie in a while,people are just fascinated with the Jolie and Pitts relationship and adoption. You gotta be kidding me.

Do Saudi textbooks teach hate?

I wonder what other country teaches hate in school? We have along way to go,there is still tension in other races in north America as well but i guess its more civilized,but as far as Canada im worried about Alberta.

Life for pregnant Briton in Laos trial

http://www.cnn.com/2009/WORLD/asiapcf/06/03/briton.trial.laos/index.html#cnnSTCText






Im glad to hear that she has a chance to go to her home country,there is always two sides to the story. Im surprised execution was an option for the Lao govt,and the pregnancy situation is not clear,but the jails are in poor condition,no even in condition for the common criminal,but the lifestily and culture over there is much different.This whole situation doesnt sound right,there is some information left out.I hope she makes it out of Laos.

City To Start Inspecting, Fining Those With Overgrown Lawns

http://www.citynews.ca/news/news_35037.aspx

How stuck up is this law,and shows how stuck up home owners are,if you leave your garbage bins out later than them or earlier and other stupid rules,this culture of home owners are rediculous and stupid,now fines for lawns? when was this a crime? This culture makes no sence to me.

Canadians rush to save GM

Its sad that those of us who want to part in to buying GM have no choice with our tax dollars,GM never cared about their customers or workers but now we are forced to save this company against our will,i reject this whole thing. I found an audio interview with Micheal Moore and he has no sympathy for GM i cant paste it to this blog but here is a link to the audio:http://www.cbc.ca/news/ its small but his face is there. and here is his blog,on the Gm matter.

Marijuana grow ops

They say their not sure if the hard times are to blame or the main reason for these grow ops,but i say it is.If it was me i would stick to the plant pot,but this is done on a much higher scale,its unhealthy,unsanitary,and a fire hazard,they must be in a rush to make fast money in a rush.Look out the cops are getting real familiar,and asking the viewers to look for the clues stated in the video, so if you are running a grow op you should quit while your ahead,cause there will be alot more snitches this year.

Obama aims to repair U.S. image in Muslim world

Unless U.S cuts of funding to Israel that's the only way i believe the Israeli govt will listen,not just reaffirming their support for Israel,that is the core issue of the middle east,i doubt he will go to such lengths,he will have to do more than just making policies and sweet talk.

Alberta passes law allowing parents to pull kids out of class

A written notice required when sex, sexual orientation, religion are covered,its sad that residents of Alberta feel its necessary to pull their child out of class when any of these subjects are being taught,this just shoes how narrow minded Alberta residents are,i think it would be educational to learn other cultures and religion,to better understand to our fellow man,but im not surprised,this is the same province that has a culture of white supremacy on the rise.How can this be a thread to the child,why take them out of class why remain ignorant towards these subjects when they are taken up,all they are doing is alienating themselves from the rest of the country which is soon or not already dominated by a mix of other cultures and religions,sex well,the kids can learn in school or by their parents or out on their own.
