Racist!!!!!!!
Seeing just how Bizarro World England has become these days, how is it possible that the actual government would fund a program that targets an actual ethnic group and profiles them as being inclined to criminal behavior? Wouldn’t this be just about a capital offense? It makes NO DIFFERENCE if it’s absolutely true! Not only is that beside the point, it might even make it a worse crime!
Police warn girls on hiding guns
Young women are being warned not to hide guns for their boyfriends, brothers or male friends in a new campaign by the Metropolitan police.
It is aimed at the growing number of teenage girls in London who, the Met says, are being persuaded to store weapons for male gang members.
Police are primarily targeting black girls aged between 15 and 19.
People caught hiding a gun for someone else can expect to receive a five-year prison sentence.
The series of radio, cinema and billboard adverts with the message: “Hide his gun and you help commit the crime” is being launched by Trident, the Metropolitan Police’s anti-shooting unit.
Claudia Webb from the Trident Independent Advisory Group says vulnerable young women are sometimes pressured into storing or transporting weapons by the men they know.
“We are deeply concerned however, that this involvement seems to be increasing and those who are involved seem to be younger and younger,” she added.
Jail for gangsters’ girlfriends who stash guns
Young women who stash guns for their gangster boyfriends are risking their futures and will face jail, police said today.
The stark warning was issued at the launch of a campaign to help prevent shootings across London by urging young women not to hide weapons .
Black teenagers in the capital aged between 15 and 19 years are being targeted under the initiative, which follows a recent rise in the numbers of young women being arrested and convicted for possessing weapons.
Among a dozen women charged so far this year with possession of a firearm were seven teenagers, including a 16-year-old girl arrested after a 9mm Browning self-loading pistol loaded with one round was discovered in her bedroom.
The series of radio, cinema and billboard adverts - carrying the strapline “Hide his gun and you help commit the crime” - has been masterminded by Trident, the Metropolitan Police’s anti-shooting unit.
There is no mistake here. It’s not just one or two articles saying this. It’s all of them:
http://news.yahoo.com/s/nm/20090930/od_nm/us_police_girls
http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/uk_news/8281942.stm
http://madnews.wordpress.com/2009/09/30/uk-news-met-police-warn-girls-on-hiding-guns/
http://cms.met.police.uk/news/publicity_campaigns/trident_warns_of_consequences_of_storing_guns
Ok, sometimes they try to dress it up a little bit, but that actually makes for a more specific profiling group:
The hard-hitting adverts, which are aimed at 15 to 19-year-olds of African and African Caribbean heritage, are designed to combat a worrying growth in the number of young women being arrested and convicted of possessing weapons.
Is street crime so out of control there - where handguns are already illegal, right? - so utterly out of control that the cops have to result to racial profiling? What has that socialist utopia come to?

This is one of the articles I was referring to in my last post. This is law (lack of) and disorder (LOTS of) in modern day England.
And the populous is UNARMED.
Now then, a natural supposition of those opposed to guns in homes is that, should they be that easy to come by then the bad guys will be just as well armed. Well, that may be so but that argument misses the point that firstly, criminals are already armed for the most part. People who advocate gun ownership have never to my knowledge suggested that ANYONE should be able to buy a gun merely by walking into your local grocery store. Frankly, I don’t know how that would work out here in the UK if gun ownership was allowed. And how many people answer a knock at their door with a gun in their hand? (ok, I once did but it was very late at night, beyond any expectation of nightly visitors and the outside light was not on. Turned out to be a songwriter friend from England visiting Nashville who decided to pay a surprise visit. ) Anyway people, the older ya get the more vulnerable one feels because, you are. And btw, based on the things I have read about here, if we had access to guns, there’s no way that under some circumstances I would answer the door unarmed.
I’m not implying that this unfortunate mother would have had a gun even if allowed. But in many other cases, I’m certain lives could have been saved had the victims been well armed. The punks and street rats are perfectly willing and proud to use violence. And why the hell not? There isn’t anyone or anything in place that they’re afraid of. They have little if anything to lose. Or at least, nothing they place much value on.
Except of course their own lives and their own well being. But unless that’s threatened in some way, they own the streets.
33 separate complaints to the police
By Harriet Sergeant
October 1st, 2009Already we are beginning to forget the horror of the story of Fiona Pilkington and her 18-year-old daughter Francecca.
We heard this week how bullying neighbours tormented them for ten years, finally driving Fiona to burn herself and Francecca, who had a mental age of four, to death.
What made matters so much worse was that she made 33 separate complaints to the police - yet was all but ignored.
Simmons familyHow bitterly ironic it is that the police are now visiting her street in huge numbers, providing protection to the Simmons family who allegedly helped drive Fiona Pilkington to such a desperate act.
What scant consolation it must be for Fiona’s grieving relatives that her death has at last stirred the police into action.
I will never forget that photograph of the Simmons family. There is nothing particularly wicked about them. And that’s the horror. The four sons are smiling, relaxed, leaning affectionately against each other and their father. Their clothes are clean. They are posing, for goodness sake, in front of flowered wall paper.
Yet this is the family who allegedly tormented a woman to such horrific extremes after enduring a decade of terror.
I have spent the last ten months interviewing teenage boys in poor neighbourhoods. The Simmons boys are no worse, and even a lot better, than many of those I met. Like a lot of adolescent boys they did the reprehensible because it was fun - and because they could.
As one of the boys chillingly told Fiona Pilkington’s 72-year-old mother: ‘We can do anything we like to you and you can’t do anything about it.’
In any normal society those boys would have been pulled up short - by their parents, by neighbours, by the police, by pillars of the local community - the first time they threw an egg at the Pilkington household.
BUT WE NO LONGER LIVE IN A NORMAL SOCIETY. No one censured them, so they were able to continue their reign of terror in Barwell in Hinckley, Leicestershire, for up to a decade.
The sorry truth is we live in the twilight years of a social experiment that has failed. The Pilkington family has paid the worst possible price for that failure.
In the caring, sharing culture of our social services, one fact gets forgotten. In order to protect the vulnerable, you have to take a stand. But our Government and our institutions are uncomfortable at exercising authority. And in the vacuum that this creates, bullies like the Simmons family move in.
As one policeman remarked to me: ‘Sometimes it’s not enough to be all pink and fluffy. You’ve got to be nasty sometimes. You’ve got to be getting stuck in there.’
The failure to get ‘stuck in’ by social services, schools and the police means they have the blood of people like Fiona Pilkington and her daughter on their hands.
Fiona Pilkington and her daughter
Failed: Fiona Pilkington and her daughter were let down by the authoritiesTake the local community. In the old days, a neighbour would have seized boys urinating against a house and clipped them around the ear - or worse. Now what happens when a grown-up tells off a gang of youths? Those community-minded individuals risk getting stabbed or beaten or are themselves arrested by the police.
The Pilkingtons’s neighbours complained. ‘We tried our best to stop what was going on,’ they said. They contacted the police and council. ‘But our pleas fell on deaf ears.’ Our local communities have been totally emasculated.
What about schools? What role did they play in socialising and directing the youths in Barwell? White working class boys like the Simmons brothers do worse at school than any other group. At 14, 65 per cent of them have a reading age of seven or below.
Schools today appear incapable of exercising the discipline and moral authority so clearly needed by teenage boys. In fact one of the Simmons brothers, Alex, boasted he has twice been expelled from school for ‘fighting with teachers’.
So what kind of punishment can a school inflict? They can hold a boy in at break time or, of course, with the appropriate procedure and letters to the parent, after school for a few hours. None of the boys I interviewed looked on that as a life-changing experience.
When authority is ineffectual, bullies flourish. When one mother at a North Yorkshire school complained her son was being persecuted by a group of boys, his headmistress replied: ‘There is nothing I can do about bullying.’ At least she was honest.
Indeed in the topsy-turvy world of our ineffectual institutions, victims of bullying often find themselves cast as the villain simply for demanding justice. Many parents told me that if their child complained, they were the ones who suffered and were forced to withdraw the complaint or even move school - not their tormentors.
Normally on a story this long I’d edit and provide a link. But not this time. The whole article is here and continued below.

Cell phone footage showing a group of teens viciously kicking and striking a 16-year-old honors student with splintered railroad ties has ramped up pressure on Chicago officials to address chronic violence that has led to dozens of deaths of city teens each year.
The graphic video of the afternoon melee emerged on local news stations over the weekend, showing the fatal beating of Derrion Albert, a sophomore honor roll student at Christian Fenger Academy High School. His death was the latest addition to a rising toll: More than 30 students were killed last school year, and the city could exceed that number this year.
Prosecutors charged four teenagers Monday with fatally beating Albert, who was walking to a bus stop when he got caught up in the mob street fighting, authorities said.
The violence stemmed from a shooting early Thursday morning involving two groups of students from different neighborhoods, said Tandra Simonton, a spokeswoman for the Cook County prosecutor’s office. When school ended, members of the groups began fighting near the Agape Community Center.
During the attack, captured in part on a bystander’s cell phone video, Albert is struck on the head by one of several young men wielding wooden planks. After he falls to the ground and appears to try to get up, he is struck again and then kicked. Simonton said Albert was a bystander and not part of either group.
Prosecutors charged Silvonus Shannon, 19, Eugene Riley, 18, Eric Carson, 16, and Eugene Bailey, 18, with first-degree murder, Simonton said.
Fenger students said Albert’s death intensified tensions at the school, with arguments about him breaking out in hallways all day Monday. Several blocks away, a memorial erected on the spot where he was beaten was burned down. Police also increased patrols before and after school and in the neighborhood.
“They’re still trying to retaliate,” said sophomore Toni Gardner, 15. She did not elaborate.
For Chicago, a sharp rise in violent student deaths during the past three school years — most from shootings off school property — have been a tragedy and an embarrassment.
Before 2006, an average of 10-15 students were fatally shot each year. That climbed to 24 fatal shootings in the 2006-07 school year, 23 deaths and 211 shootings in the 2007-08 school year and 34 deaths and 290 shootings last school year.
This month, the city announced a $30 million project that targets 1,200 high school pupils identified as most at risk to become victims of gun violence, giving them full-time mentors and part-time jobs to keep them off the streets. Some money also will pay for more security guards and to provide safe passage for students forced to travel through areas with active street gangs.
Meanwhile, the kids - all gang members of course - continue to kill each other at unprecedented rates. But the good news is, they didn’t use guns this time! [ my guess is that Chicago will now try to outlaw boards, and will soon have registration for rocks and bricks ]
Rival gang members have been fighting for a month—and each time one of their fellow classmates is injured.
No knives and no guns were used in Thursday’s fight. Just fists, feet and boards.
Derrion Albert, 16, was struck in the head by one of those boards.
Seconds later the honor student hit the pavement. That’s when witnesses, who are other high school students, say gangbangers began stomping on and punching Albert.
Fucking animals. Degenerate primitives. Products of the Welfare State, products of the highly expanded and very well funded educational system. Products of the Democrat controlled inner cities. Spoon fed government largess from the cradle on up. And the result? You can watch the video at the link above, but I wouldn’t recommend it. It is brutal.
PS - news articles keep referring to the wood used as being railroad ties ("sleepers" for you Brits). Excuse me, but those things are 9 by 7 inches, and about 8 1/2 feet long. They weigh about 200lbs. Hercules couldn’t lift one, much less use it as a club.

MARK OF MADNESS: POLICE REFUSE TO SHOW SUSPECT’S BIRTHMARK IN ID PARADE BECAUSE OF HIS HUMAN RIGHTS.
By Fay Schlesinger
Last updated at 1:41 AM on 28th September 2009When Tracy Ryan spotted a suspected burglar emerging from the dog sanctuary where she works, she thought she would have little problem pointing him out to police.
After all, he had a large port-wine stain on his face.
But when police set up an identity parade, they refused to take the man’s distinctive birthmark into account - in case it infringed his human rights.
An officer from the Nottinghamshire force explained that the mark was too rare to be included in a profile of the burglar when it was entered into a computer database.
It would leave only a small pool of potential suspects in the electronic ID parade, he said, breaking police rules.
Under laws designed to take into account ‘the rights and freedoms of the public’, witnesses must be shown a minimum of 12 photographs before they are allowed to identify a suspect.
These are selected from a database of people who have passed through custody in Nottinghamshire, in the hope that the burglar is already known to police.
Because only a handful of people on a database had a birthmark or port-wine stain, the characteristic gave fewer than 12 results.
The characteristic was subsequently removed and the search was broadened.This forced Mrs Ryan, 39, to examine the faces of 93 suspects, none of which she recognised.
It was on August 25 that £300 in charity donations was stolen from the Crossing Cottage Greyhound Sanctuary in Sutton on Trent, Nottinghamshire.
Mrs Ryan noted that, apart from his birthmark, the suspected culprit was tall and wore a white tracksuit. She also took his car registration number.
Police have subsequently made an arrest and Mrs Ryan is due to attend a second identification parade which will include the suspect, who is on bail.
He will be pictured alongside 11 people of a similar appearance. But if he has a birthmark, it will still be kept secret.
The suspected thief and the other participants will be made to cover one side of their face.
Mrs Ryan said: ‘Surely an unusual characteristic like a big birthmark should help a police investigation?
‘If there were just four or five people on the database with such marks, all the better.
‘I understand police have to follow procedures, but to me the
rules are flawed and amount to a pretty lame excuse.’
Her boss John Morton, who manages the home for 30 former racing dogs as part of the Retired Greyhound Trust, said: ‘The police are saying they can’t infringe human rights. But what about our human rights?
‘We are law-abiding people who have been victims of crime, and the police have a responsibility to maximise their chances of solving that crime. If this is the law, it has to be changed.’
Joanne Hall, of Nottinghamshire Police, said the force had to abide by the rules of the Police and Criminal Evidence Act 1984.
She said: ‘The witness had to be shown not less than 12 photographs at a time. PACE sets out to strike the right balance between the powers of the police and the rights and freedoms of the public.’
***Police use two principal variations of the identity parade technique - picture viewing and Viper.
The first, when no suspect has been identified or arrested, involves creating a profile of the suspect based on the witness’s observations, such as height, build and hair colour.
At least 12 potential suspects are then selected from a database of those previously in custody.
Viper is used when police have a suspect in mind or have made an arrest. The suspect is recorded on video and shown to the witness alongside 11 other innocent people who bear a resemblance to him.
If the original suspect has a rare facial feature, such as a birth mark or tattoo, matching ID parade participants can prove impossible to find.

‘Manson family’ killer dies in prison after her 18 bids for parole were denied.
This may not be news for all at BMEWS in the USA. But it’s PURE pleasure for me to be able to post this.
GOOD! I’m only sorry she couldn’t have wasted away in jail for more time and to be miserable but dead is very good too.
I hope with all my heart it was very slow and very painful but I doubt the do good doctors would allow that. Pity.
I’d have sliced her open exactly as she did to Sharon Tate and give the ugly bitch a taste of what she helped to cause.
I wish I could bring Judge Rose Bird back to life just so that I could set her alight. Then put out the fire and start all over again.
For those who don’t know what who I’m talking about; Rose Bird, a liberal lawyer who had never been a judge, became one of the most controversial figures in California politics. She led a liberal majority and was recalled over her opposition to the death penalty.
Yeah. And she died of breast cancer. LOL. ROTFLMAO
I celebrated (manner of speaking) when one of the defense lawyers was found dead on a mountainside. My only regret was that I wasn’t responsible.
I was working at KFI Radio in LA, on the night shift when the Manson killings first started being called in. I recall a few of the gory and sickening details
this group of vile sub human filthy bastards were responsible for. She apologized? Who the fuck cares? She should have been used for medical experiments along with the rest of that bunch. And btw, I would include that deluded young woman who decided she was in love with one of those killers and married him in prison, and gave him children.
Hey America. How’s that for freeken justice huh? Ole macho man Tex and this Atkins scum cut open Sharon Tate to see her baby. Oh what fun.
So Tate loses life and baby BUT .... the killer gets to father children. OH ISN’T THAT JUST GREAT! Anyone call that justice has to be nuts!
She tried 18 times to gain freedom? How many times did her victims beg for their lives?
I didn’t need to read Helter,Skelter people. I was hearing about this crime before most of the public did.
Feeling any sort of compassion for the killer is treason to the victim!
Susan Atkins: ‘Manson family’ killer dies in prison after her 18 bids for parole were denied
By Mail Foreign Service
Last updated at 2:35 PM on 25th September 2009
Sharon Tate’s murderer Susan Atkins has died in prison, suffering from brain cancer.
The 61-year-old is the first of the Charles Manson clan, who were responsible for the 1969 murder of the pregnant Hollywood actress, to die.Her death comes less than a month after an American parole board refused to free her from jail on compassionate ground despite her terminal illness. It was her last chance of freedom and she was brought to the hearing on a trolley and slept through most of it.
California Department of Corrections spokeswoman Terry Thornton said that Atkins died late Thursday night.
She had been diagnosed with brain cancer in 2008 had a leg amputated and underwent brain surgery.
Tate, the 26-year-old actress who appeared in the movie ‘Valley of the Dolls’ and was the wife of famed director Roman Polanski, was one of seven murdered in two Los Angeles homes during the Manson cult’s bloody rampage in August 1969.
Manson and three others involved in the murders - Patricia Krenwinkel, Leslie Van Houten and Charles “Tex” Watson - remain imprisoned under life sentences.Atkins, who confessed from the witness stand during her trial, had apologised for her acts numerous times over the years.
But 40 years after the murders, she learned that few had forgiven what she and other members of the cult had done.
Debra Tate, the slain actress’s younger sister, told the parole commissioners Sept. 2 that she ‘will pray for (Atkins’) soul when she draws her last breath, but until then I think she should remain in this controlled situation’.
She also noted that she would have a 40-year-old nephew if her sister had lived.
Atkins and her co-defendants were originally sentenced to death but their sentences were reduced to life in prison when capital punishment was briefly outlawed by the U.S. Supreme Court in the 1970s.

A hostile Muslim population that sets fires, then attacks firemen in Sweden
H/T sevenload.com/videos
I am not certain at all with regard to the embed here but I tested out the link and that does work. Sweden has its problem. And France, And UK And Germany And Norway and Holland And .................
Here is an interview with some firemen in Sweden talking about how they cope with a hostile Muslim population that sets fires, then attacks them when they come to put them out and save anyone who may be in danger from them. This of course is now familiar as it is classic ‘Al Queda Handbook’ stuff on how to make a no go zone. However it is nice to see cracks in the political correctness that has prevented European agents of the state from reporting the facts, although this video does not name Islam specifically, one can easily infer it from the interviews and pictures of the ‘natives’ of the area in Question.
Link:
Bottom line as everyone knows by now. The fault isn’t with muzzies entirely. It’s the hand wringing, bleeding heart leftist libtards that believe in this multi-culture crap. The frightened and guilt ridden (why?) whites in our countries who appease and pander and accommodate, and know no end to make happy diversity and continuing appeasement of a sub-human species who will in the end, do us all in.

Islam respects women? Hmmm, this judge says so while sending rapist to jail. ? Go figure.
Yeah no kidding.
Strange bit of logic at play here. Funny what we can find on the net even when we aren’t looking.
‘You have turned to Islam and this promises well for your future, particularly as you are now an adherent of a religion which respects women and self-discipline.’
I’m finding it hard to believe that The Mail got this report correctly. ?????
Rapist praised by judge for converting to Islam
By Daily Mail Reporter
Chelmsford Crown Court
Sentenced: Rapist Stuart Wood was found guilty of rape at Chelmsford Crown Court (pictured)
A judge lambasted a rapist for claiming his victim was a liar - then commended him for becoming a muslim.
Judge Anthony Goldstaub QC sentenced Stuart Wood for seven years for the attack, then told him: ‘You have turned to Islam and this promises well for your future, particularly as you are now an adherent of a religion which respects women and self-discipline.’
Speaking at Chelmsford Crown Court, Judge Goldstaub strongly criticised Wood, 34, for pleading not guilty at his trial which meant his victim was put through the ordeal of having to tell 12 strangers ‘the most intimate details’.
‘This she did with dignity and courage,’ said Judge Goldstaub. ‘You, through your counsel, called her a liar and suggested she had invented rape.’
The judge added that Wood, who had previous convictions for indecent assault on underage girls and for violence, had shown no remorse and still protested his innocence about the attack in August last year in Colchester, Essex.
He added that Wood had achieved the humiliation he intended on his victim.
Wood, of no fixed address, pleaded guilty to assault causing actual bodily harm.
He was jailed for seven years for rape, nine months for ABH and three months for common assault, making a total of eight years. He will be on the sex offenders’ register indefinitely.

Girl’s moment of terror as sex attacker drags her screaming from street ‘like an animal.
Ho-Hum. Just another schizophrenic nigger oh whoops I meant Nigerian national loose on streets.
A guy with a record and known for this, but he was out there walking free as you please and actually being accepted (apparently) as a real live human being.
If someone is schizophrenic and there’s proof of such, then why the hell aren’t they put down in the same manner as a rabid dog? Of what possible use can they be outside medical experiments? They are totally worthless otherwise. They are useless and a drain on the public purse. Why is it the responsibility of the public to see to their well being? OK, if anyone thinks I’m a bit OTT on the subject fine. Then invite em over to your house but keep them well away from ours. Please. Just tell us where to send the flowers when the nut case turns on you and yours because Elvis told them to.
There is NO earthly reason to support or keep these sub-humans alive unless farming for healthy organs.
Teenage girl’s moment of terror as schizophrenic sex attacker drags her screaming from street ‘like an animal’By Daily Mail Reporter
This is the terrifying moment when an innocent teenager is dragged off the street by a would-be rapist.
The 18-year-old woman had been out with friends near King’s Cross when she was grabbed by the man and dragged along the street ‘like an animal’.
The victim was pulled into a side street and forced to the floor when a passer-by heard her screams and came to her aid.
Powerfully built schizophrenic Samson Bello, 23, admitted two other sex attacks on women committed within hours of this one.
He was sentenced yesterday at Southwark Crown Court and received a detention order under the mental health act to be detained indefinitely.
In total he pleaded guilty to four charges, three attempted rapes and one count of kidnapping with intent to commit a sexual offence.
The images of the attack were released today as it emerged that murder squad detectives tracked Bello to his home using CCTV.
They were able to pick up his attacks on cameras located in the street and then follow him on CCTV as he caught two buses home.Analysis of the cameras on a 149 night route showed Bello, a Nigerian national who has lived in Britain for 10 years, alight at a stop in Hackney, east London.
Detectives flooded the area with CCTV images of the suspect in a distinctive white jacket asking residents if they recognised the man.
As they were doing so Bello walked out of his basement flat and was stopped by two officers. He admitted that the image was him.
Trail of images: Bello on a 149 night bus after the attack on the 18-year-old, who had been out with friends near King’s CrossBello, who has a history of mental illness, launched his first attack on a 16-year-old girl in Marylebone High Street at 3.30am on March 29.
The victim said she was grabbed by Bello who told her: ‘Come with me. If you scream then I’ll hurt you.’
She was pulled into an alleyway and assaulted before a passer-by intervened. Two days later Bello went on the rampage attacking three women in three hours.
A 24-year-old woman was attacked in the Prince of Wales Passage off Hampstead Road at 12.30am. The Spanish woman fought back and the attack was interrupted by a passer-by.
At 2.45am the 18-year-old was attacked as she walked along Pentonville Road. At one point she smashed a bottle of beer she was carrying and attempted to slash Bello but he was too strong for her.
Twenty minutes later a 20-year-old woman was attacked opposite the British Library. In this case she managed to struggle free and run off.
Police say officers watched hundreds of hours of CCTV to piece together Bello’s movements on the night.
Bello was first spotted on film as the suspect in the case on 4 April and arrested five days later.
Detective Chief Inspector Peter Lansdown said: ‘The volume of CCTV cameras in central London was a significant factor in solving these offences quickly.’
Sentencing Bello, Judge James Wadsworth QC told the impassive defendant: ‘You have pleaded guilty to a serious campaign of attempted rape.
‘I have read the impact statements of the ladies concerned and they show what a terrifying affair this was.’
He said had it not been for his mental illness he would have been ‘looking at a life sentence in all likelihood for these very nasty offences’.
But in view of his condition the ‘most appropriate disposal’ was to detain him indefinitely under the Mental Health Act.
Outside the court, case officer Pc Paul Woodham of the Met’s Serious Crime and Homicide Unit said: ‘Bello is clearly a very dangerous person who made no attempt to cover his tracks or disguise himself in any way.
‘These crimes were quite blatant and could easily have resulted in a far worse outcome in each case.
‘I would like to praise the bravery of both the victims and those members of the public whose intervention saved those they helped from a far more serious fate,’ he added.

Neo-Nazi jailed indefinitely over racist bomb plot. But many get less for more then just plotting.
I have no problem with this guy being put away. His solution isn’t just counter productive, it’s certifiably mad at the least and supremely dangerous at worst.
Now then, that should not be taken to mean I disavow the idea of using vigilantes in some cases. For example. There are two very evil and feral ‘youths’ age 10 and 11, that have finally seen the inside of a court. You may recall I wrote about them some months ago.
They tortured near to death, two other young boys, burned them, slashed them, forced them to commit sex acts, tried to set fire to a little girls hair, have done robberies and burglaries and vandalism AND, tried hanging with wire one of their victims. Just kids having fun. And they were busy at this sort of thing for awhile till one of the victims almost died.
Ppl had been complaining about them for a long time but cops and social services did nothing. One of the little bastards in fact was supposed to report himself to the courts as he was on bail, imagine that, at age 10, but he couldn’t attend as he was otherwise occupied beating and stabbing another kid at the time.
And how stupid could the authorities have been to think he’d report in on his own?
Well, smirking they entered court last week and due to their tender age the public isn’t allowed their photos but even worse , and get this.
They will be out of jail by age 18 if not before and if that isn’t bad enough, upon release they will be fully protected and will have their IDs hidden from the public, and will be moved somewhere, ALL AT PUBLIC EXPENSE and at the cost of hundreds of thousands of pounds. Now I wrote “jail” here but at their age it isn’t jail as we know it. I just can’t recall the term I saw used.
Some number of years ago, some may recall this, another couple of young boys here enticed a todler away from his mom while she was shopping. He was not much more then a baby. They tortured and then killed him. They were given LIFE. HaHa. Life as you and I know doesn’t mean that at all.
They are out and free. I think they were released in 2003.
And so I whole heartedly support the use where needed, of Vigilantes.
In the case of the two monsters mentioned at the beginning of this rant, at the least their eyes should be removed. Be pretty hard to do harm then and it’s no less then they deserve.
There’s another breaking story today with regard to a woman who planned and then stabbed to death her two teen aged daughters (age 16 and 13) multiple times. One was stabbed 39 times. She did it to hurt her ex-husband and get even with him.
So all that brings me to this post regarding this dickhead who planned but never got as far as actually doing the evil deeds he had in what passes for a mind.
He’s jailed inefinately. Actually, if you take a look at his photo, you might agree that anyone looking like that should not be free to walk the streets.
Oh btw ... two other “youths” were arrested last week who were planning a Columbine copycat massacre but on a larger scale.
I wonder how soon they’ll be declared cured and out walking among us.
Stay Tuned.
Neo-Nazi jailed indefinitely over racist bomb plot
Neil Lewington, a neo-Nazi who was about to launch a racist terror campaign on the streets of Britain, has been jailed indefinitely.
DAILY MAIL
TUESDAY, SEPT. 8Lewington, 44, wanted to emulate his far-right heroes, Oklahoma bomber Timothy McVeigh and Soho nail bomber David Copeland.
The unemployed electrician, of Tilehurst, Reading, kept video compilations about their attacks at his home.
Police discovered a bomb factory in his bedroom after he was arrested by chance at Lowestoft railway station, Suffolk, for drunkenly abusing a female conductor.When he was stopped and searched at the station in October last year he was found to be carrying components for two “viable improvised incendiary devices”.
Anti-terror police then raided the home where he lived with his parents and found evidence that he planned to make tennis ball shrapnel bombs to target Asian families, along with detonators and explosives.They also discovered a notebook entitled “Waffen SS UK members’ handbook” with a logbook of drawings of electronics and chemical devices.
The link between his extremist views and interest in explosives was illustrated by a note reading “compressed thermite grenade vs Paki front door”.
He also wrote a chilling “mission statement” in which he boasted of two-man hit squads attacking “non-British people” at random.
Lewington told one woman that “the only good Paki was a dead Paki”.He was today at the Old Bailey given an indeterminate sentence for public protection and told he must serve at least six years in jail after being convicted of having explosives with intent to endanger life and preparing for terrorism.
Lewington was also found guilty of two charges of having articles for terrorism including weedkiller, firelighters and three tennis balls, two counts of having documents for terrorism, and one allegation of having explosives.Brian Altman QC, prosecuting, said: “This man, who had strong if not fanatical right wing leanings and opinions, was on the cusp of embarking on a campaign of terrorism against those he considered non-British.
“In addition to his extreme views on race and ethnicity, the defendant had an unhealthy interest in bombers as well as bombings.
“He admired, and might soon have emulated, the bombers about whom he possessed two compilation video tapes, had he not been captured, albeit quite fortuitously.”Judge Peter Thornton said: “You are a dangerous man, somebody who exhibits emotional coldness and detachment. You would not have been troubled by the prospect of endangering somebody’s life.”
The judge said the devices Lewington was found with at Lowestoft were made “to a very high standard” and all that was needed to set them off was to wire up the igniters and timers.“These were dangerous firebombs, meticulously constructed, all set to go,” said the judge.
What police found at Lewington’s home was a “veritable store of components for explosives and incendiary devices”, including nearly 9lb (4kg) of weedkiller, pyrotechnic powders, fuses and igniters.While he had selected no specific target to attack, he “clearly had in mind” Asian and black people, said the judge.
He also made disparaging reference to “retards” and sometimes after a few drinks “slipped into racist mode” while chatting to shocked acquaintances.
The judge told Lewington: “You were in the process of embarking upon terrorist activity. You were going to use or threaten action involving either serious violence to people or serious damage to property.“This action was designed to intimidate non-white people and it was for the purpose of pursuing the ideological cause of white supremacy and neo-fascism, albeit in a rather unsophisticated way.”
Just to show you folks just exactly how things are here ..... take a look at this, from the Times.

Cannibal killer freed from a secure hospital kills two more.
If ever there was a very good reason (and there’s lots more) for euthanasia, then this HAS to be one for sure.
So here’s this brain eating lunatic that gets by shrinks and soc. services, and of course there’s more then one reason to guard his ‘rights’ being as he’s a member of a minority and so that carries a bit of weight. Come On! You know it does. Anyway, in cases like this the immediate answer is NOT care and hospitals and meds all at taxpayer expense. I don’t happen to believe that the public has any duty or responsibility for nut cases. They simply take up space and should be eliminated quickly, before some idiot shrink and or care taker screws up and set em free.
Case in point besides this one. That other scum who kept a young girl for 18 years, had a track record of rape. BUT, he managed to convince prison authorities and his shrinks ( a pointless/useless activity called a science but only in name) that he found ‘God.’ Always works apparently. So now they find he’s been a busy fella over the years and they think he may have killed a number of women. He was sent to jail before and got 50 years and was out in 11 when he did it again. And again. See, a guy like that. FIRST TIME. BANG! Next? And there’s no 2nd or third or fourth victim. But no. Can’t do that. Most unfortunately cause the gremlins have ... ‘rights.’
I can’t bring myself to post this vermin’s photo, but you’ll see it at the link. Get ready to be sick.
Note to Peiper: don’t use the ‘N’ word.
NHS ‘failed’ over cannibal killer
By Nick Triggle
Health reporter, BBC NewsPeter Bryan has killed three people
NHS failures contributed to two people being killed by a man with schizophrenia after he was freed from a secure hospital, two inquiries suggest.
Peter Bryan, 39, of east London, killed a friend and ate parts of his brain in 2004 - two years after being released from Rampton, in Nottinghamshire.
He then went on to kill a patient after being sent to Broadmoor.The independent reports into the deaths said while Bryan was a unique case, more should have been done to stop him.
The inquiries, carried out for NHS London, the body which oversees health services in the capital, blamed system failures instead of individuals for the mistakes.
However, they acknowledge he was a difficult case because he could go through long periods without showing any signs of overt mental illness.
Bryan was first sent to Rampton secure hospital after beating 20-year-old shop assistant Nisha Sheth to death with a hammer in 1993.
Now then, right at that point he should have been sentenced to death by the very same means his victim suffered. Had that taken place, there might have been no future victims. Of course there’d be the usual hand wringers. That’s okay. Grab them and do the same just so they know how it all feels. Lets see how long they remain sympathetic to the gremlin. Then finish them off anyway.
In 2002 he was released into the community after applying to a mental health tribunal and allowed to live as a care in the community out-patient.
He was sent to a hostel where residents have their own front door and room key.
But after an allegation of an indecent assault on a 17-year-old girl, Bryan was sent back to hospital, but this time he was only an informal patient on an open ward at Newham General Hospital in east London.
In February 2004, he walked out of the unit and killed his friend Brian Cherry, 45, before frying and eating parts of his brain. He had also started to dismember the body.He was arrested and after appearing in court was sent to another secure hospital, Broadmoor.
Within weeks of arriving, Bryan attacked fellow patient, Richard Loudwell, 59, who later died.
In court, he pleaded guilty to killing both men on the grounds of diminished responsibility.
One psychiatrist who interviewed Bryan concluded that he was “probably the most dangerous man he had ever assessed”.The report into Mr Cherry’s killing criticised the speed at which Bryan was moved into the community.
He spent only six months in a specialist centre designed to get him used to independent living following his time at the secure hospital and before his move to the hostel. The normal length of time is up to two years.
The experts also said the staff - a psychiatrist and social worker - detailed to look after him in the community did not have the necessary experience.This in turn led to a reduction in his anti-psychotic medicine, they added. And the health service was criticised for not taking seriously enough the allegation of sexual assault. Bryan was only moved to Newham for his own protection as the family and friends of the girl were threatening him.
The investigators said a move to a secure unit could have stopped him killing Mr Cherry.
NO fruit fly face. What would have stopped the bastard was immediate execution way back in ‘93. What a damn shame that family only threatened. They should have been quiet so that he would not have been moved, and then finished him off with hammers. Then claim diminished responsibility.

What’s it take exactly to put a creep away?
This is creepy. Gak. Take a look at this guy. So then. Bad heart, force kiss young girl in school, get outta jail free.
Come on. I’m not suggesting the law has to lynch the guy. But jail is exactly where ppl like this belong. Unless I read this wrong, he has a record of this sort of behavior. What’s he doing teaching in school? Oh. Silly me. Almost forgot. His civil and human rights. Got it.
And can you just imagine being kissed by this? GAK, again. Stomach churning for the poor girls I’d say.
Teacher who French-kissed 14-year-old schoolgirl spared jail because of his heart condition
By Daily Mail ReporterA science master who French kissed a 14-year-old girl and asked pupils about their sex lives was spared jail because he has a heart condition.
Keith Ogunsola, 44, grabbed the teenager in his office before kissing her as she tried to push him away.
The married father also embarrassed girl pupils during a chemistry revision class by asking if they had performed sex acts on their boyfriends.Ogunsola had been warned last month that he faced an inevitable prison sentence.
But Judge Martyn Zeidman, QC, suspended a 12-week jail term for 12 months after reading medical reports. The judge said: ‘Certainly what you have done doesn’t deserve a death sentence.‘I’m just persuaded that it would be right in the circumstances of this case to suspend the sentence of imprisonment.
‘You will never again be employed as a school teacher. My primary concern is to protect members of the public and other potential pupils.’
The judge praised the victim’s courage, adding: ‘I want to pay tribute to the girl who bravely made this complaint. She’s a very impressive young lady.Ogunsola was banned indefinitely from working with under-18s and will be placed on the sex offenders’ register for five years.
Snaresbrook Crown Court in East London heard how Ogunsola struck at the school where he taught in Ilford, Essex, on February 27 last year.
Describing her ordeal in Ogunsola’s office, the girl said: ‘He put his arms around my waist and said, “Do you want a kiss?”
‘He pulled me close and then kissed me and put his tongue in my mouth.‘I pushed him away. He pulled me really close. He was holding my wrists and he kissed me again.’
She said she was ‘shocked’ by Ogunsola’s advances and simply ‘froze’. She said Ogunsola asked her: ‘Aren’t you supposed to be my Valentine?’
The girl said she reminded Ogunsolahe was married with children. ‘I said, “You have got a wife and kids and I have got a boyfriend”. He said, “Dump your boyfriend”.’
The girl said Ogunsola had asked her about her love life, and added that other girls at the secondary school had described him as a ‘pervert’.Jurors heard how Ogunsola asked other girl pupils of 14 and 15 whether they had performed sex acts on their boyfriends.
He also warned the youngsters that boys were ‘only after one thing’.
A jury convicted Ogunsola, of Banstead, Surrey, of sexual assault but cleared him of an attempted sexual assault on a girl of 15 at the same school in February 2006.Jurors also acquitted Ogunsola of two indecent assaults on teenage girls at a school he taught at in Carshalton, Surrey, between January and May 2000.
Ogunsola left the school in Surrey in 2001 before stints at Islington Green School, North London, and the Pimlico Academy in Westminster before moving to Ilford in 2005.
The former headmaster of the school in Surrey revealed Ogunsola had been warned about his conduct with girl pupils prior to the alleged assaults in 2000.

The Senator of Sleaze who was a drunk sexual bully…
After listening to the mawkish whitewash last night on the BBC (radio), I was quite surprised today to find this in the Daily Mail. And it wasn’t the only commentary written in the Mail on this subject.
I do not gloat in his death even though I did not like the man. There was nothing to like or admire in my opinion.
Anyway, this commentary says enough and says it far better then I ever could. As does the commentary by Ruth Dudley Edwards, link below.
Ted Kennedy: The Senator of Sleaze who was a drunk sexual bully… and left a young woman to dieBy Charlie Laurence
Last updated at 3:31 PM on 27th August 2009
Senator Edward ‘Ted’ Kennedy stood for sleaze. Bloated and drunken, he used his standing in the Kennedy clan to chase vulnerable women - which brought his dream of reaching the White House to a shameful end.
He was the youngest of the four Kennedy brothers, and by far the longest lived.
Incredibly, he was in line to inherit his brother John F. Kennedy’s legendary presidency, but his chances were dashed following the drowning of the pretty, young campaign assistant Mary Jo Kopechne.
Forever known as the Chappaquiddick Incident after the Massachusetts island where it took place, the scandal in 1969 broke the Kennedy grip on the White House.
A drunk Ted had been driving back from a party to the family ‘compound’ on Martha’s Vineyard when he veered off a bridge and into a deep tidal dyke.
Drowned: Mary Jo Kopechne was killed after Ted Kennedy drove his car off a bridge with her insideMary Jo was in the back seat and, while he claimed he was just giving her a lift back to her hotel, it was widely thought that he had picked her up for sex. Kennedy swam ashore to save himself, but left Mary Jo to drown - in fact, it was even worse than that.
It was nine hours before he reported the accident. In the meantime, he walked back to his motel, complained to the manager about a noisy party, took a shower, went to sleep, ordered newspapers when he woke up and spoke to a friend and two lawyers before finally calling the police.
Divers later estimated that if he had called them immediately, they would have had time to pull out Mary Jo. She had not drowned, but had survived in an air pocket inside the car - she was asphyxiated only when the oxygen ran out several hours later.
As always, Ted used the family name to save his neck. In any other state but Massachusetts, the Kennedys’ home turf, and with any other name, he would have been charged with homicide.
Instead, he escaped with a slap on the wrist: a two-year suspended sentence and the loss of his driving licence for a year. He had been allowed to plead guilty to no more than the charge of leaving the scene of an accident.
Kennedy lawyers arranged for him to pay £55,000 to the Kopechne family from his own pocket with a further £30,000 from his insurance. Mary Jo’s mother later said: ‘I don’t think he ever said he was sorry.’
At the height of the scandal, Kennedy went on TV to explain himself in an extraordinary 13-minute address in which he denied driving drunk and rejected rumours of
‘immoral conduct’ with Kopechne.He said he was haunted by ‘irrational’ thoughts immediately after the accident, and wondered ‘whether some awful curse did actually hang over all the Kennedys’.
He said his failure to report the accident right away was ‘indefensible’.
Yet the tragedy and his actions appalled millions of Americans.
The steamroller Kennedy political machine, combined with his popular opposition to the then raging Vietnam War, made him favourite for the 1972 presidential election, but the drunken drive that killed Mary Jo snuffed out his bid.
Edward Kennedy’s character flaws would have sidelined any man from a lesser family before his career had begun. Schooled in the height of privilege, like his brothers, at exclusive boarding ‘prep’ schools, Kennedy went on to Harvard.
But he was expelled from that Ivy League bastion for persuading another undergraduate to take his Spanish exams for him. It was an episode that should have served as a warning to the voters.
Kennedy joined the Army to redeem himself and was later readmitted to Harvard. He followed the classic path of the American elite to law school, graduated and was admitted to the Massachusetts Bar.
Irish support: Kennedy with Sinn Fein’s Gerry Adams - for years the Democrat was seen as a cheerleader for American Irish supporters of the IRAIrish support: Kennedy with Sinn Fein’s Gerry Adams - for years the Democrat was seen as a cheerleader for American Irish supporters of the IRA
But he did not take a single case. He believed that, like his brothers, he was destined for greatness. As he could not stand for the Senate until he was 30, the Kennedy machine arranged for a ‘stooge’ candidate to hold the family seat for two years, when JFK left it for the White House.
He reeked of drink by nine in the morning and could be relied on to be bawling drunk at four in the afternoon. In Washington’s top La Brasserie restaurant, he once threw a waitress over a table in a private room and tried to have sex with her.
His face, once handsome, became as round as a football, bloated and criss-crossed with the broken veins of an out-of-control drinker.

Vegan prisoners win right to ‘cruelty free’ products in jail. More pandering to the bleeding hearts
I read this today and started with every four letter word plus derivatives I could dream up.
This is one of many reasons folks do not believe for a minute that prisons are working. Or for that matter the criminal justice system. Sure, works fine for the gremlins. They even pander now for “Pagan” prisoners. Imagine that.
Vegan prisoners have won the right to order ethically-sourced food, toiletries and cosmetics in jail.
By Nick Allen
The TelegraphThey will be allowed to buy in products including nuts, seeds, dried fruits, vegan chocolate bars, soap, shampoo, deodorant, sunscreen, lipstick and facial scrubs after prison chiefs agreed to allow them to place mail order requests to two “eco-outlets”.
Vegans refuse to eat any food, wear any clothes or use any product which involves the use of animals in any way. They don’t wear wool and leather, don’t consume dairy products and will not use toiletries or cosmetics that contain animal products or that have been tested on animals.
Some of the strictest vegans avoid all products with even a remote connection to animal exploitation, including sugar processed with animal bones and camera film that contains gelatin.There are an estimated 800 in the prison population at any one time and they currently struggle to obtain products they find acceptable, with most jail canteen food and even prison-issue boots excluded.
After a 15-year-campaign by the Vegan Prisoners Support Group (VPSG) the Prison Service has now allowed them to order ethical food and toiletries by mail order if there are none in their prison shop.
Orders will be supplied by the High Street health store Holland & Barrett, which sells a wide variety of nuts and seeds, and the eco-friendly outlet Honesty Cosmetics.It is the latest in a series of rulings to protect the rights of inmates from minority groups. In May pagan convicts were allowed to keep twigs in their cells to use as wands.
After securing access to food and toiletries for vegan prisoners the VPSG is now negotiating for them to be supplied with “vegan shoes”, which are made from a combination of natural and synthetic materials instead of animal hides.It insisted that vegans needed to be able to order in food because they could not otherwise get enough iodine from a prison diet. A lack of iodine can slow the thyroid. Most people get iodine from fish and vegetarians get it from milk.
A spokesman for the VPSG insisted it was “critical” for the health of vegans that they have access to suitable food.He said: “Vegan prisoners have had very limited access to vegan products through prison shops. Our recommendations were for basic vegan hygiene and bodycare products like a vegan soap bar, shampoo, conditioner, moisturiser, deodorant and toothpaste.
“In addition we recommended a vegan chocolate bar, sweet and savoury vegan biscuit, a protein source such as Nuttolene or braised tofu, vegan spread, cheese alternative, soya yoghurt, flavoured soya drink and fortified soya milk.”
But a source at HMP Exeter said: “These guys are crooks. They are in prison to serve time. We can’t be running around making sure they have the right sun cream or that they have the one brazil nut or selection of walnuts to make sure they get enough vitamins.
“They gave up any rights to have principals when they robbed the old lady, burgled a house, smuggled cocaine or beat someone up.”

FOR YOU FOLKS IN EUROPE AND THE UK, THIS IS WHY WE KEEP GUNS IN THE USA.
Coz the vermin have them and will never hesitate to use em.
Three cheers for this old fellow except I wish he wouldn’t say how sorry he is that he had to pull the trigger. Why sorry?
He didn’t take a human life after all. He should feel very good. He has also prevented future criminal acts. Good for him!
Shopkeeper, 72, who shot dead two robbers won’t be charged, say policeBy Paul Thompson
Last updated at 11:21 AM on 15th August 2009When four armed men burst into his store and demanded money, Charles Augusto tried to reason with them.
He calmly explained there was no cash on the premises and they should put the gun down.
But when one of the robbers began to pistol whip an employee in frustration, the 72-year-old’s patience snapped.
He pulled out a 12-gauge pump-action shotgun from under the counter and began shooting.
The blasts hit all four men, killing two and leaving two others critically injured.
he quietly spoken store owner is being hailed as a hero in Harlem, New York, for turning the tables on the robbers. Police said he would not face any charges.
Although the shotgun was not registered, under New York law someone is allowed to use deadly force if they feel their life is in imminent danger.
Mr Augusto, who bought the shotgun 30 years ago after another robbery attempt, said he was left with no choice but to open fire.
‘I told this kid, “We don’t have any money”,’ Mr Augusto said.
‘I asked him, “Why don’t you just put your gun down and go home and we’ll forget about this thing? Someone’s gonna get hurt. There’s no money - you’re gonna get in trouble. You’re wasting your time.”
‘I would have been happy if they’d all run out the door. I’m sick to my stomach over it.
‘I’m sad I couldn’t talk them out of it. I’m sad there’s mothers and fathers with no sons today.
‘I haven’t done anything wrong. I’m sitting here minding my own business and they come in with guns. I don’t feel like a hero. I would have felt like a hero if I could have talked that kid into going home.’
He added: ‘I’m sorry they’re dead but they didn’t give me any other choice.’
The failed robbery took place at his restaurant supply company in Harlem. Mr Augusto was inside the store with two employees, a 33-year-old man identified as JB and a 47-year-old woman.
The four robbers - aged from 21 to 29 - burst in and demanded cash. One was armed with a pistol and they carried plastic handcuffs.
Police said Mr Augusto made it clear there was no money on the premises, which led to one of the robbers to start to pistol whip JB.
Mr Augusto, who was 20 to 30ft away, whipped out the shotgun and fired three times.
James Morgan, 29, died instantly. A gun was found near his body slumped in the doorway of the store.
His accomplice Raylin Footman, 21, died later in hospital from shotgun wounds to his back.
The two other suspects, Bernard Witherspoon, 21, and Shamel Cloud, 21, were caught after police followed a bloody trail from the store.
Witnesses said JB stood over the dead robber screaming: ‘You’re dead! You’re dead!’
He later told police a gun had been held to his head.
Police sources said Footman, one of the victims, had previously been arrested for robbery and weapons charges. The other three robbers were also known to police.
Harlem residents praised Mr Augusto for his actions.
Gene Hernandez, 47, said: ‘I would kill a dozen of them. You have to protect your family and workers. Case closed.’
Stefany Blyn, who rents a space above the store from Mr Augusto, said: ‘He’s been robbed before, so I’m not totally amazed.’
Police said charges are pending against the two injured suspects.
