It’s still Memorial Day, and never too late to showcase some of the dumbest Americans that Mark Dice can find on the streets of California..
I really enjoyed the working theme that Memorial Day was more for surfers who lost their lives..
Any one see why the VA is as bad as it is? I’d venture to say some who work there don’t even know the promise that was meant to be kept.
I am laughing in spite of myself at this..
When I play with my son, I feel like a kid again.
And sometimes I look like one, too.
Seriously, I am look like a child with a receding graying hairline! Maybe my wife just took it at a weird angle.
Either way, it looks like Ayden is a year away from outpacing my in growth..
Short is the sport.
It was a great weekend all in all..
Seriously, this is getting to be like the Bush Administration part three! History repeats itself one administration of the time
Elliot Rodger was trying to act out the role of a film star when he went on his killing spree - to make up for the fact he felt like a failure in real life. Clearly he did not feel he had the status he deserved.
Interesting take.
It makes sense..
Not shocking..
It reminds me a bit of the Tsarnaev reaction, like his photo on the cover of ROLLING STONE ..
A little boy identified a man he said killed him in his past life, and even showed where the body and murder weapon were buried. The man admitted to the crime.
This is a fascinating story from the Golan Heights region near the border of Syria and Israel.. If we are to believe what we read, a 3-year-old boy remembered not only how he died (and ax to the head) but also the person who killed him.
We are also led to believe from the article that the boy led his parents to the murder site. There they found an ax and bones of a body. Also when he confronted the man who he said killed his former self, we are told again, the man confessed to murder as his face ‘turned pale.’
This comes from Eli Lasch, a leading German regressionist in the past lives realm.
This is a matter for discernment, I’d suppose.
Belief in reincarnation seemingly can cut across religious background. I know some Muslims and Catholics who are very open to the concept of reincarnation. I also know some atheists that would never entertain the thought.
The part of this whole story I found most doubtful is that we had a story of a ‘boy’ and a ‘man,’ a ‘family’ and a ‘murder site.’ No names are places were revealed..
Even more, if the story is accurate and we have a real life case of a past life matter, how can we be sure the person regressing this boy did not plant false memories? What scientific assurances can we be given?
After all.. a ’3-year-old confronting’ his murderer?
My son is a little over 3. He loves Scooby Doo and the Care Bears. I cannot imagine him confronting any adult about issues of this nature. Of course, every child is different.
I have long wondered before Ayden was 3 and soon to be 4 (next year) if he would relay some moments of his past lives.. So far nothing. I also asked him where heaven was, who God is, and where he came from. He dodged my questions as only an artful toddler could..
But in the Golan Heights we have a miracle child..
The ax marks the spot.
I listened with some amazement to Clyde Lewis Friday night.. he had a very interesting take on his GROUND ZERO radio program concerning the controversy of the 9/11 gift shop—I am sure you heard about it by now..
I also learned something new.
There was something much more offensive that took place within the ‘hallowed’ halls of the museum than the gift shop selling chotchkies..
As Clyde Lewis writes on his page:
As the Gothamist reported, “The National 9/11 Museum opened to the public [May 21], with dozens of museum employees on hand to assist visitors through exhibits, numerous Red Cross workers and chaplains eager to help those who needed comfort… President Obama dedicated the museum last week in a special ceremony that was by invite only. There were mostly politicians and a few of the victim’s families in attendance.”
And, of course, select members of the media – which did not include that Gothamist reporter who was actually thrown out.
But those honored visitors were told to leave because only the VIPs, which included former Mayor Michael Bloomberg, were allowed back inside for a black-tie cocktail reception, the NY Daily news said. It is said later this summer there will be a family restaurant opening up in the facility.
The creepiness here is evident, the cocktail soiree was being held on the site where it is believed many of the victim’s remains are still buried and many people feel that it is also a bit sick to open a restaurant on the site.
The museum’s cocktail hour took place near the “remains repository,” where 8,000 unidentified body parts are being stored.
Now that it has opened to the public, there are mixed feelings about the museum. While some see it as a place where people can reflect on the tragedy, some see it as politically exploitative and not as dignifying as maybe a wall with names or a monument.
Again, our censored Gothamist reporter noted: “There’s a warning in front of the entrance, “The exhibition may not be appropriate for visitors 10 years old and younger. Adults accompanying younger visitors should exercise discretion before entering.””
Upon arrival, the scene is set up like a Halloween spook alley in a posh library. Scorched car doors, salvaged firefighters’ uniforms, banners, toys, and a destroyed fire engine are preserved forever and on display at the museum.
Never knew of this party.. this sick, sick party..
A cocktail hour on the grave of 8,000 body parts.. There seems to be something very ghoulish about that choice, don’t you think? A little vampirish, perhaps? The blood lust, the pain.. the suffering.. all beneath the feet of the elite and wealthy as they sip their champagne. Their riches are thanks to the thousands dead.. A little more honor is due than a cocktail hour on top of a grave site..
Clyde Lewis goes on to write more,
For $64.00 you can purchase survival tree earrings and $39.00 gets you a hoodie emblazoned with an image of the towers. There is also a collectable [sic] cheese plate you can purchase as well.
Victims’ families didn’t ask for this, they didn’t expect their family members to be important deaths for eternity and have their remains in a containment hold piled behind a locked door in a museum that doubles as a mausoleum with an adjacent Shake Shack.
Disturbed yet?
The full article *(and show*) from Clyde Lewis is worth the read and listen. I would dare say, if you have any sense of morality, you’d be a little grossed about the goings on within the public building..
The remains of all of those body parts being at this location seems to be one of the worst decisions made..
ALL OF THESE DISPATCHES FROM CNN:
— Santa Barbara County Sheriff Bill Brown said that “it would appear as if” Elliot Rodger — the suspect in a deadly rampage near the University of California, Santa Barbara — “took his own life” after he was wounded by officers. Rodger was found “obviously dead” in a crashed car, after he allegedly killed six people and injured 13 others.
— After leaving his residence Friday, Rodger apparently fatally shot two female students from the University of California, Santa Barbara, while a third person “suffered multiple gunshot” wounds, Brown told reporters. The suspect then went into a delicatessen, where he shot and killed another USCB student, Christopher Michael-Martinez, according to Brown.
— In addition to the six victims and the dead suspect, 13 people “were injured during this melee,” Brown said. Eight of those suffered gunshot wounds, four were hit “by the suspect’s vehicle” and one has a “minor injury of unknown origin.”
— The suspect “had over 400 remaining rounds of ammunition” when he was found “obviously dead” in his crashed car. Brown said that more people could have been killed if not for the actions of law enforcement.
…and police talked to him..
His HUNGER GAMES assistant director father reported him..
His YOUTUBE videos shows a premeditated madness…
Very weird stuff..
Information about a mentally disturbed 22-year-old responsible for a mass shooting in the California city is now coming to light.. There is a bizarre angle of the story involving the movie HUNGER GAMES.. CNN reports this in recent dispatches about the shooting:
Based on what police told the family of Elliot Rodger, the parents believe he is the shooter, attorney Alan Shifman, a family spokesman, told reporters. He is the son of Peter Roger, who is identified as an assistant director of the 2012 film “The Hunger Games,” according to IMDb.com.
The younger Rodger died from a gunshot wound after his car crashed Friday night, police said. It was unclear whether the fatal head wound was self-inflicted or the result of a firefight with police.
A video has also been uploaded to YouTube by the would be killer .. Along the chilling statements, he says he is an alpha male and says he would take pleasure in hurting girls who denied his sexual advances
And this: The family of the killer warned cops prior to the deadly rampage but police simply high the was polite.. Meanwhile he was planning his slaughter of blonde women..
Some good Saturday reading for a cloudy day.. The curious case of Edward Mordrake. That is supposedly an image of him. He also reportedly had a face on the back of his head that did not talk, but would laugh and cry. Also, this: He supposedly wanted doctors to remove the ‘demon face’ from the back of his head.. when they did not, it would keep him awake at night and finally he succumbed to suicide due to the extra face..
There is even a book in 1900 that supposedly documented all of this.
But is it true?
Could this just be one of those weird urban legends that never went away with time?
I came across this website, Verum Fabula, which attempts to figure out of this is truth or crap..
There is also debate on the SNOPES forums as to the real story behind this..
It’s certainly medically feasible for it to be true.. but is it true?
Forgive me, but I would rarely want to trust a medical book from the 1900s…
My local fishwrapper, the POTTSVILLE REPUBLICAN & HERALD, published a front page above the fold article on the first gay divorce in Schuylkill County, PA.. Now that gay marriage is legal, I suppose, gay divorce will be just as commonplace as the nuptials.
Although the actual article was accurate as far as facts, it was a bit tacky to do it.. seriously.. above the fold top news status?? Did they set out to embarrass this man? Why don’t they write about straight divorce in the same fashion (well maybe because 70% of marriages end that way..)
Bad form, POTTSVILLE rag.. bad form.
Let’s be happy we had medical advancements. If not, we’d still be doing this AND MANY OTHER CREEPY THINGS..
I also wonder: In the future, will generations laugh at how undeveloped we are in this age ..? Will they chuckle that we didn’t map the brain yet? Will they joke about our futile attempts to use life support..?
Well.. at least we don’t use ‘invalid carts’ anymore..
There are a collection online that blew my mind: Incredibly awkward pregnancy photos. And there is a set of 41 of them on the site Newslinq.
I don’t get it.. if these are a joke, then it’s just weird.. if they are serious attempts to showcase a pregnancy, then it’s weirder.
Either way, have fun.. 41 photos of oddities of woman and their stomachs.
Two of my favorites:
Could it be? An old mystery from last century solved? Will this finally put the story of the Solway Spaceman to rest? Logic and science and common sense solving one of the most famed UFO and paranormal photos of all time?
We know this about the photo:
Jim Templeton took the image of his daughter in 1964. A strange white figure of a man who appeared to be in a space suit was visible behind her..
According to the story, Templeton took the image to police.. they said it was nothing out of the ordinary. He sent it to Kodak, which reportedly said the image had not been altered or tampered with..
And finally, according to lure, Men in Black, “Number 9” and “Number 11”
showed up and talked to Templeton about the photo.. One aspect of the story that I actually was not aware of is reported by the BBC:
Perhaps the strangest turn of events was a link to the planned launch of a Blue Streak missile in Woomera, South Australia.
Just days after Mr Templeton had taken his photograph, that missile test on the other side of the world was aborted by technicians who reported seeing two men in the firing range.
That is a little creepy, perhaps. All of it is, really.
The BBC has more, though, and interviewed an expert who attempts to finally solve this old mystery with a logical conclusion. Dr. David Clarke met the Templetons, the BBC says.. Also this: Clarke does not think the image is a hoax or purposely fake. Instead, he thinks the spaceman is actually Templeton’s wife..
"I came away absolutely convinced he was telling the truth and couldn’t explain it himself, although I was less convinced about his ‘Men in Black’ story. Whoever it was who visited him, I don’t think they were from the government."
However, the spaceman, Dr Clarke says, is almost certainly not anything of the sort.
"One of the other stills [taken that day] shows Jim’s wife who, according to him, was standing behind him when he took the photo of Elizabeth," he said.
"I think for some reason his wife walked into the shot and he didn’t see her because with that particular make of camera you could only see 70% of what was in the shot through the viewfinder."
Annie, he argues, was standing with her back to the camera and the photograph was over-exposed - causing her blue dress to look white.
Whatever the truth, for Dr Clarke it is a reminder of a more “innocent time” and he is in no doubt about its importance.
Could that be it? A simply solution to the story.. An ending to what has been a part of UFO lure for decades? Just a woman in a white dress.. over-exposed in color and a product of an early came in an innocent time..
Interesting way to conclude it all..
Are you with Dr. Clarke? Are you of the opinion that this is solved, over and done? Or do you still think that aborted missile launch had something to do with the spaceman.. and that Number 9 and 11 were on to something other-worldly or even alternate worldly..?
Beauty is in the eye of the beholder.
As is the Solway Spaceman.
….true stuff.
I wonder if they were also listening to Miley Cyrus at the time.
