Yeah, think about it.   What lengths do you think these people will go to in their efforts to avoid sunlight ?   Carvalho is deeply connected to the political machine.  He turned down the position of Federal Asst. Secretary of Education – He’s connected deeply to both the President and First lady, as well as Eric Holder.  He’s also deeply politically attached to FL State Attorney General Pam Bondi.  

This is the man who created the M-DSPD issues which led to illegal diversionary programs in Miami-Dade Schools and eventually Trayvon Martin’s death…..  It just sickens me to see this guys get away with this, like – you have no idea.

MIAMI-DADE – Riding a cresting wave of accolades, Miami-Dade Superintendent Alberto Carvalho has been named the country’s top schools chief.

The School Superintendents Association announced in Nashville Thursday that Carvalho had won the 2014 National Superintendent of the Year. Carvalho, who attended the event with two school board members, said he was “humbled and honored” and as he accepted his award his first thoughts were of his father.

The award, given to one of the country’s 49 state superintendents of the year, is likely to further ever-present speculation about whether Carvalho will seek public office or a job on a bigger stage. But Carvalho said in an interview Thursday evening that he remains as focused as ever on working for the 350,000 students of Miami-Dade County. (more…)

USA TODAY – America’s ruling class has been experiencing more pushback than usual lately. It just might be a harbinger of things to come.

First, in response to widespread protests last week, the Department of Homeland Security canceled plans to build a nationwide license plate database. Many local police departments already use license-plate readers that track every car as it passes traffic signals or pole-mounted cameras. Specially equipped police cars even track cars parked on the street or even in driveways.

The DHS put out a bid request for a system that would have gone national, letting the federal government track millions of people’s comings and goings just as it tracks data about every phone call we make. But the proposal was suddenly withdrawn last week, with the unconvincing explanation that it was all a mistake. I’m inclined to agree with TechDirt’s Tim Cushing, who wrote: “The most plausible explanation is that someone up top at the DHS or ICE suddenly realized that publicly calling for bids on a nationwide surveillance system while nationwide surveillance systems are being hotly debated was … a horrible idea.” (more…)

In Austin Texas a woman was jogging.  Police claim she J-walked while jogging so they forcibly stopped her, handcuffed her and demanded id.

She did not have id in her skimpy jogging outfit, so they arrested her for “failure to identify”.

The Texas cops put her in a police car, took her to jail, booked her, mug shot, finger-prints etc., for J-walking and jogging without identification.

A guy across the street saw the whole thing and thought it was ridiculous.  He recorded the incident and took pictures.

Then the general public began using social media to express their outrage.

Unfazed by the action of his police officers, and profoundly unapologetic, the Austin Police Chief, Art Acevedo, told the media the jogger should be grateful the Austin Police Dept didn’t rape her.

A growing national database containing school students names, addresses, test scores, learning disabilities, attendance records, disciplinary actions, extracurricular activities, vocational and technical training…. [household income, parental political affiliations, voting records, gun registrations, criminal histories, regulatory and compliance activity, IRS tax records, Obamacare medical records, known affiliations, religious beliefs, car registration, purchasing habits, energy consumption, carbon footprint compliance, etc.] ….for contractual and/or employment review, dontchaknow… Gee, what could possibly go wrong ?

RFID Tracking chips on school ID’s.   Take home laptops with GPS and spy-cam functions.  And…  Oh yeah, and those pesky ALPR (automatic license plate readers) are for what use again?

NEW YORK – In an unprecedented move, education officials will hand over personal student data to a new private company to create a national database for businesses that contract with public schools.

Working with the city, state education officials are already uploading private information about students — their names, addresses, test scores, learning disabilities, attendance and disciplinary records — into a $100 million database called inBloom. (more…)

Yes, it has actually come to pass.   Uno Cero firmly in command.

In the era of President Milli Vanilli, a man wildly proclaimed (by leftists) to be the smartest President ever; a man who won a Nobel Peace Prize just for showing up; a man who would heal the planet and stem the rising tides; a man who would improve United States international influence…..

….. now recognized as a man who can’t even get another country to pick up the phone.

Yes, ye sheeple of Democrat association, this is your guy. Mr. Hope and Change himself – President Milli Vanilli in the White House.    Hoax n Chains.

WASHINGTON DC – Ukraine Defense Minister Pavel Lebedev has refused to take multiple phone calls made personally by Defense Secretary Chuck Hagel, the Pentagon said Thursday.

“Secretary Hagel has been trying, himself, since early this week,” Pentagon press secretary Rear Adm. John Kirby told reporters. Lebedev refuses “to communicate, to accept a phone call” from Hagel or the Pentagon. (more…)

(Salon.Com)  Since Florida cannot defend black life against white fear, the question now is: How should black people respond?

How much more are black people in this country supposed to take?

On Saturday, a Florida jury failed to convict Michael Dunn for the callous murder of Jordan Davis. Though he was convicted of three counts of attempted murder and also on a gun charge, a mistrial was declared for the first-degree murder charge. He will face substantial jail time – perhaps up to 75 years on the four charges for which he was found guilty.

Prosecutor Angela Corey has also publicly declared her intent to seek retrial on the murder conviction. However, she is the same prosecutor who oversaw the Zimmerman murder trial and failed to get a conviction. (more…)

Northern and central Virginia local papers are reporting on a very bizarre case involving the disappearance and death of a Virginia reserve police officer, Captain Kevin Quick, who served in the Waynesboro, Va Police Dept.

Kevin Quick was en route to visit the mother of his 4 month old infant daughter in an apartment complex near Barracks Road in Charlottesville, Va when he disappeared.  Police have been able to trace the movements of his vehicle, a silver Toyota 4Runner, in a bizarre pattern through central Virginia, up to Manassas in northern Virginia, and then back down again to Louisa County in central Virginia, where it was used as a getaway vehicle in a robbery attempt.

When you peel back the concentric layers around progressively driven racial story lines what you find is a self-fulfilling prophecy.

As with almost every aspect of life whatever inherent truths you deny, you are doomed to revisit.   Yesterday we outlined the latest media-avoided conversation surrounding yet another racially inspired knock out assault.

Knowing that a single blow to the head can lead to death, as was evidenced recently in the “knock out murder” trial of Jesse Smithers, these awkward, horrific and continually repeating examples are not a game.   

They are, for all intents and purposes, attempted homicides.

Capital Murder as generally defined is: “the unlawful killing of another person, with malice of forethought and specific intent to kill“. Remove any of the three essential elements [(1) Unlawful, (2) malice, (3) specific intent] and you have the various degrees of homicide charges.

Remove ‘specific intent’ and you have “Murder 2” unintentional killing.  Add in the removal of ‘malice of forethought’ and you have “manslaughter”. Remove ‘unlawful‘ and you end up with “justifiable homicide”.

What you witness in this attack is (1) unlawful and (2) with malice of forethought.  The unknown variable is ‘specific intent’.  Does the attacker intend to kill the victim ?

Generally, at least in this example, I would surmise no – but one could easily argue, perhaps.

The race to replace disgraced former mayor Bob Filner between Democrat David Alvarez and Republican candidate Kevin Faulconer, both former city council members and local government colleagues, ended with a decisive victory for Faulconer.

Faulconer promises to work to heal a city that is reeling from the second resignation of a Mayor in a decade, winning February’s special election in a decisive victory which will allow him to remain in office for the remainder of the disgraced former Mayor’s term, which ends in 2016 (coincidentally).
