Friday May 3, 2013 - Jurors are debating murder charges against Philadelphia abortion provider Dr. Kermit Gosnell as they start their third full day of deliberations in his trial.
The jury asked for help Friday distinguishing among the four babies Gosnell is accused of killing. Staff members at Gosnell's clinic have testified that they saw each one move, breathe or whine outside the mother's body before they were allegedly killed.
The jury has also asked for a list of drugs found during a 2010 clinic raid. Prosecutors say the abortion drug Digoxin was not found - although Gosnell says he used it to stop the babies' hearts in utero during late-term abortions.
The jury has been weighing more than 250 counts against Gosnell and a codefendant since Tuesday.
Since the Boston terrorist attack on 4/15/13 we’ve been learning a whole lot about the two Muslim morons who blew up little children and severely injured hundreds of innocent onlookers and merry marathon runners.
Speaking of the Boston terrorist attack, how long do you think it’ll be before the Leftists and their co-belligerent compadres, the Muslims, start whining about building a mosque close to the finish line of the Boston Marathon? I’ll give it … eh … six months. One-year tops.
Back to getting to know the demonic Frick and Frack brothers.
Of the all the revelations spilling out about the two tools that rained terror down on Bean Town, I guess the one that really gets my goat more than all others is that Massachusetts’ taxpayers actually, albeit unknowingly, pimped these punks’ jihad dreams out. Yep, your tax dollar helped fund these wicked weeds.
Now, I’m not from Massachusetts and I’m not a Red Sox fan, but that sure as shizzle ticks me off, that somehow your hard won cash, over taxed by the state of Mass., was rolled into money for nothin’ for two Muslim asses to bomb your unsuspecting masses.
That. Is. Jacked. Up. People. Jacked Up. I’m talking Capital J … capital U … Jacked Up.
With this blistering revelation of Muslim murderers being on the government dole, I guess we must now instill checks and balances within our welfare system to make certain that they’re not going to hurt us, at least not on our own dime, any longer. No mas, jackwagons.
I don’t know if you guys saw the video released last February where a cleric from England, who actually pulls down a little under $40k from our snaggle-toothed brethren’s welfare coffers, said “free cash” is what we “kuffars” owe Islam. The malcontent actually called it his “Jihadi Allowance”. Yes, he said with preening glee, that we infidels are indebted to Islam for being … well … infidels. I swear, I’m not making this up. You can check it out here.
This makes me wonder if that same mindset has trickled across the pond to the miserable jihadists who’ve rocked up on our shores. Hmmm. Could it be? It appears it was, at least, with the two Boston Bomber twits.
So, what should we do people?
Should we urine test wannabe terrorists that desire our cash while they sit on their asterisks? Can we detect jihad in pee? No? Well, crap. How then are we going to know whether or not we’re funding someone who’s going to blow up a pressure cooker at the next marathon?
That’s a question folks. What do you propose we do to make certain they don’t get one red cent to spill one ounce of our red blood?
"We should not be required to breathe the same air as you, we should not be required to share the indignity of your presence" says Judge Jeanine Pirro in her opening statement to the Jihadi mother of the Boston bomber, as she exposes the facts that are being brought to light behind the terrorist attack in the Boston Marathon.
The hospital-room questioning of the surviving suspect in the Boston Marathon bombings is generating concern about whether he should have been interrogated without first being told of his constitutional rights to silence and a lawyer – and, conversely, whether federal agents actually should have had more time with him before he was read his rights.
Dzhokhar Tsarnaev faced 16 hours of questioning before he was advised of his Miranda rights, and investigators say he told them of his role in the two bombings near the Boston Marathon finish line on April 15. He explained that he and his brother, Tamerlan, were angry about the U.S. wars in Afghanistan and Iraq and the killing of Muslims there, according to two U.S. officials who spoke on condition of anonymity because they weren't authorized to discuss the case with reporters.
He also described a spur-of-the-moment plan that the brothers hatched to drive to New York and set off their remaining explosives there, New York City officials said Thursday.
From the April 24, 2013 edition of "The Glenn Beck Radio Program"- The real story about the Saudi National who was originally taken into custody immediately following the Bostom Marathon bombings. Glenn Beck drops the hammer on Secretary of Homeland Security Janet Napolitano...Glenn gives actual evidence from The Blaze that she- and possibly others in the Obama administration- are involved in a cover up related to the Boston Marathon Terrorist Attacks.
Napolitano admitted Tuesday that a Saudi national once identified as a "person of interest" in the Boston Marathon bombings was put on a terror watchlist after the attack.
Last week, she refused to answer any questions about the Saudi, calling South Carolina Rep. Jeff Duncan's inquiry "so full of misstatements and misapprehension that it's just not worthy of an answer."
But today, speaking at a Senate Judiciary Committee hearing on immigration reform, Napolitano responded to a question posed by Sen. Chuck Grassley (R-Iowa).
"Before the [Tsarnaev] brothers became the focus of the investigation, authorities questioned a Saudi student who reportedly was on a terror watchlist," Grassley said. "I sent a letter to you this morning asking for answers to questions about the bombers and how they interacted with your agency, I trust you will promptly respond..."
"With regard to the Saudi student, was he on a watchlist, and if so, how did he obtain a student visa?" Grassley asked.
Napolitano firmly responded: "He was not on a watchlist. What happened is — this student was, really when you back it out, he was in the wrong place at the wrong time. He was never a subject. He was never even really a person of interest. Because he was being interviewed, he was at that point put on a watchlist, and then when it was quickly determined he had nothing to do with the bombing, the watch listing status was removed."
Developments continue to pour in on the Boston bombing suspects, Tamerlan and Dzhokhar Tsarnaev. The latest report is that a judge and attorney interrupted an FBI interview with Dzhokhar at a hospital, reading him his Miranda rights and perhaps costing them valuable intelligence.
Malkin called the revelation "particularly troubling," and noted that it is "extremely telling that you have rank-and-file people leaking about this to the media."
Malkin said overall, the media seems sympathetic to Dzhokhar Tsarnaev, painting him as "some poor innocent teenager who was merely a Holden Caulfield-like figure."
"This is not made up, this is not from The Onion. It's The New York Times likening this guy to 'Catcher in the Rye's' main character!"
Malkin went on to discuss some curious comments on the bombings by Secretary of State John Kerry, along with the reports that Tamerlan was receiving welfare before the attack.
Footage from surveillance cameras along the Boston Marathon route gave the FBI early clues about the bombing suspects. And prosecutors say they'll use some of those images to try to prove their criminal case against 19-year-old Dzhokhar Tsarnaev. But the proliferation of cameras in America's big cities is raising some tricky questions about the balance between security and privacy.
"It goes back to the Constitution, It was part and parcel of the Fourth Amendment right to be free of unreasonable searches and seizures. We've always expressed a strong constitutional preference for privacy, for not giving the government unbridled authority, even to protect us."
Rep. Adam Schiff, D-Calif., a member of the House Intelligence Committee
After Hannity expressed his dismay that the suspect has now been read his Miranda rights and won’t be tried as an enemy combatant, Coulter asked, “Why not just shoot up the boat? If we’re not going to talk to him and get any information about the cell, about any foreign influence, they should have kept shooting when they caught him in the boat. Just give him an automatic death penalty there.”
Coulter also went after the FBI for not doing more to prevent the attack in the first place after they were reportedly tipped off by Russian intelligence about the older, deceased suspect Tamerlan Tsarnaev. Now that they know what a bang-up job our FBI did… are they going to trust us with their information to be presented in a public trial?”
Remember when Republican Rep. Peter King, Chairman of the House Homeland Security Committee, held hearings in 2011 and 2012 on the radicalization of Muslims here at home?
"Today, we must be fully aware that homegrown radicalization is part of Al Qaeda's strategy to continue attacking the United States," King said. "Al Qaeda is actively targeting the American Muslim community for recruitment. Today's hearing will address this dangerous trend.”
Democrats stopped short of calling King a racist publically but howled, “How dare he stereotype Muslims?” Well, the Boston marathon terrorist attack suggests King was right and Democrats were wrong. The left leaning news media was wrong too. Moments after the attack many in the mainstream media suggested the bombings looked like the work of “right wing radicals,” even though the pressure cooker bombs used in the Boston attack are a trademark of al Qaeda.
Chechen brothers Tamerlan and Dzhokhar Tsarnaev, who emigrated from Chechnya and were legally living in the US for the past 10 years, set off bombs at the Boston marathon finish line then terrorized the city for nearly a week. The older brother Tamerlan posted Islamic extremist videos on YouTube, one of which “extolled an extremist prophecy associated with al Qaeda.”
Chechnya is predominately Muslim country and according to the Wall Street Journal most Chechens are Sunni Muslims. The Tsarnaev brothers are Muslim, and early evidence suggests it’s highly possible they became “radicalized Muslims” during the time they lived in America.
Before the two terrorized Boston, Muslims living in America were committing terrorist attacks on the “homeland.” The 2009 Fort Hood shooting and the 2011 Times Square bomb attempt. If the shoe fits, well then Muslims are wearing it well.
Yet in the changing face of terrorist threats to America, President Barack Obama and Democrats are loathe to use the word terrorist and Muslims in the same sentence for fear of offending the jihadists. During King’s first hearing in 2011, Rep. Keith Ellison (D-MN), a practicing Muslim, said, "This committee's approach to this particular subject is contrary to the best of American values and threatens our security." Sheila Jackson Lee (D-Tex.) chimed in that "This hearing today is playing right now into al-Qaeda, around the world.”
After the Boston attack, perhaps Rep. Ellison can see what’s contrary to American values and threatens our security is Muslim terrorists who injured over 175 people and killed three with their bombs. Perhaps it’s time for Mr. Ellison to get off his political correctness high horse and face the facts, however offensive they may be to him.
Jackson also should take note that it was her comment not the hearing that played right into the hands of al-Qaeda and radical Muslims. Radicals like the Tsarnaev brothers probably watched King’s hearings and thought Democrats like Jackson’s obsession with political correctness “played right into their hands,” making it easier for them to wage terrorist attacks on cities like Boston. Democrats and Obama need to worry more about the safety of Americans and less about offending our enemies, which include Muslims at home and abroad.
In Congress, a bipartisan bill that would require law enforcement officials to obtain warrants before deploying drones for surveillance in criminal cases has been introduced.
State legislatures from all over the country have been ratcheting up tensions surrounding UAVs.
Bills on domestic surveillance drones have already been introduced by many states including Maine, Virginia, Florida, Montana, Missouri, Nebraska, North Dakota, Oklahoma, Oregon and Texas. (Florida, Virginia and Montana appear to be in the lead for turning bans into law.)
Charlottesville, Virginia, grabbed headlines passing its two-year moratorium on both police drone use in criminal investigations and on arming drones with less-lethal weapons.
More than two years in advance of the scheduled ban lift, 10 states have already passed, or introduced, bills restricting law enforcement’s use of drones. It looks like even more states will follow suit.
