RISE IN NYS

i  recently traveled to New York City and found myself on the sidelines of thousands of people fighting against police brutality. These People paraded streets  and banded together with people they didn't know for the same purpose. I thought it was crazy the amount of people and personally i am not taking a side in this.

Officers Down

        " DECATUR, Ga. –  Authorities say two police officers were shot near the eastern edge of Atlanta, and a suspected gunman is being sought.DeKalb County police Capt. Stephen Fore says both officers suffered what are believed to be non-life threatening injuries.Dozens of police cars swarmed the DeKalb County neighborhood, where several roads were closed after the Friday morning gunfire near Interstate 285. Video from television stations showed officers and police dogs searching roadsides and a field near a large apartment complex.DeKalb County Schools spokesman Quinn Hudson said shortly before 9 a.m. that four nearby schools were on lockdown: Towers and Columbia highs schools; Snapfinger Elementary; and DeKalb Preparatory Academy.Hudson says the schools were put on lockdowns at the request of police."

This article is crazy to me. Officers wake up to protect us everyday, and two just were shot these officers woke up and never thought they would be in that situation. All i can say is thank you to everyone who puts there life at risk for other people.

Hero Calls out a Phonie

A real hero.

A american veteran encounters what appears to be a another american soldier however after a closer examination he notices a few funny things about his uniform. One that his flag was too low, he had a badge that said he has served over 3 different wars, which was impossible for his age. The soldier didn't let it go and posted a video of him calling out the impostor which millions have seen. Fox new interviewed the veteran ask why did you do this and he said he liked to share stories with soldiers he sees, but once he saw his lies he stated he has seen friends die in that uniform and he doesn't deserve to wear it. I think he was brave and thankful for his service.

Oath Keepers Unite

       
AMERICA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!


        A small group, or a "band of brothers" unite to protect against the riots in mission from the outbreak after the court decision. They call them selves the oath keepers, here to stand up and fight when others run away. During an interview on fox news between the news cast and the oath keepers they were asked why do you do it when you know its illegal, and will you stop? They responded with saying to see the smiles on the faces of those we protect and the buildings standing where we stand means it all, and we wont stop at nothing to keep protecting, its what we do. I believe if others are getting away with rioting then they should get away with protecting.

Check out the interview = http://video.foxnews.com/v/3919138840001/volunteers-protecting-and-patrolling-ferguson-from-riots/?playlist_id=929831930001#sp=show-clips

Ferguson Issue. Racial Issue or Case Issue What are we focusing on?

            What is the main focus on the death of Michael Brown, or is the focus on a white officer killing a black teenager. We forget the man who lost his life and the officer who took his life, we forget the tragedy that has happened for both men and both there families. We are arguing over a issue that shouldn't be alive with us today. I believe that justice was served and that we shouldn't riot and rampage over the result. This is turning into such a racial thing and i think that is wrong. All we can do now is keep the families in our prayers an hope everything turns out to be okay.

Curve ball hits us.

Western New York has been hit with a curve ball. A death of a former canisus high school graduate has lost his life to peer pressure. Nolan, Burch A freshman at West Virginia joined a fraternity Kappa Sigma. Before i mentioned curve ball because a night with friends parting can be fatal. Me and my friends arent into that stuff but we agree that it could have been prevented. His family members are probably upset and maybe embarrassed. All we can do is keep us in our prayers.


































































































































































































































































































































































































































































































































































































































































































 





























 

Humans landed a spacecraft on a comet!

 Landing on a comet after ten years in space! This article strongly supports title as humans have landed on a comet. The writer talks about the scenario happening as they had issues with the space ship rotation after landing, and very specific like " Update: At around 8:45 a.m. PST, ESA said the lander’s harpoons did not fire, meaning that Philae is not anchored to the comet. Without being firmly attached to the ground, the worry is that the lander may fall off. ESA is now looking at options to refire the harpoons. A live feed of mission control is at the bottom of this post."s  I am surprised somebody would go ten years in space to land on a comet. I am influenced by the determination and accuracy that a space ship was launched at a target ten years ago and just reached its destination. I would like to ask how life was for the passenger in the ship, and if it was worth it. It would be interesting to see there everyday life. I think this writer should get more personally stories of the astronauts, because he or she already has great information about everything else.

RUN OFF!!!

Louisiana Mid Term Elections ends in a RUNOFF!! A new chance to vote will happen this December where Mary and Bill will go at at it again. People believe Mary will win, however i would like to see Bill Cassidy to win after the airline affair with Mary.

It's Almost Election Day

Mary Landrieu and Bill Cassidy are in a pickle. Both fighting for the position of Louisiana Senate.
Bill is in the top right now, however i believe the airline affair Mary had lost her some votes, proving she isn't trust worthy. I used to want Mary to be elected but now I'm wondering because of her actions.

Uh-Oh! Mary messes up in the election!

As I was researching where Mary Landrieu got her money to campaign I saw that screwed up big time as she used public money to pay for private airfare flights. Defiantly will lose trust from voters. She admits she is at fault.

for more info

I will make a future post as to where canidates get tne\here money ( alot of comments asked)

Landrieu is looking good!

Landieu has campaigning in here blood according to cbn news. She is taking steps to win votes going to ten locations a day. Landrieu is even visited a keg party, a wobble block party, and she is wobbling herself to the top getting her face out to the public. She wants to represent the state of Louisiana for the next six years.

Mary Landrie - Democratic Has a tough campaign to finish, repeating history.

Tough Campaign to win who will help??

Mary L. won two tough elections when nobody thought she could. To win she would haft to seriously have to defy the anti democratic trend again. It will be hard however because she lost a lot of ground in Louisiana between 2002 - 2008 from white voters. African american voters are showing tremendous support.
