Police Killings More Likely in Agencies That Get Military Gear
October 12th, 2020
Via: The Atlanta Journal-Constitution:
Americans have seen it time and again in recent months on the nightly news: Protesters in the streets confronted by local police officers carrying assault rifles, some atop armored vehicles, looking more like soldiers than public servants.
Much of that equipment has trickled down to police departments from a controversial Defense Department initiative known as the 1033 program, a 30-year-old federal initiative that provides a way for the military to dispose of surplus equipment by sending it to local police.
…
A new AJC analysis of a decade of records across 651 Georgia police departments and sheriff’s offices found departments that took more than $1,000 in 1033 money, on average, fatally shot about four times as many people as those that didn’t. The newspaper’s analysis used the military’s database and paired it with a database of fatal police shootings from across the state, controlling for statistical variables like community income, rural-urban differences, racial makeup, and violent crime rates.
The results paint a troubling picture: The more equipment a department receives, the more people are shot and killed, even after accounting for violent crime, race, income, drug use and population.
No Lockdown Sweden Now Has the Lowest Coronavirus Death Rate in Europe

Swedish health chief Olivia Wigzell explained that her country didn’t impose the kind of draconian coronavirus lockdown seen in other European countries in order to prevent the public from developing “pandemic fatigue.”
At the start of the COVID-19 pandemic, Sweden chose to go for herd immunity by refusing to impose a hard lockdown, meaning bars, restaurants, gyms, workplaces and schools remained open and vulnerable people were told to shield while mandatory mask rules were avoided.
Despite the mainstream media predicting that this would lead to massive fatalities, Sweden has recorded under 6,000 coronavirus deaths and now has the lowest death rate in Europe.
The Covidian Cult

One of the hallmarks of totalitarianism is mass conformity to a psychotic official narrative.
…
It is happening to most of our societies right now. An official narrative is being implemented. A totalitarian official narrative. A totally psychotic official narrative, no less delusional than that of the Nazis, or the Manson family, or any other cult.
Most people cannot see that it is happening, for the simple reason that it is happening to them.

Dr. Richard Bartlett’s #Covid19 protocol has successfully treated thousands of patients using an asthma drug that has been commonly prescribed in the U.S. for over 25 years. He joins Del in studio for an in-depth interview discussing his “silver bullet” treatment, and why our gov’t health agencies refuse to investigate his simple solution to the pandemic.
Amazon Bans COVID-19 Skeptic’s Book
October 18th, 2020Via: Russia Today:
Amazon has joined its Big Tech fellows in ramping up censorship of any criticism of the “official” Covid-19 narrative, deploying obfuscatory excuses to justify removing journalist James Perloff’s latest book, he told RT.
After selling a respectable 3,500 copies over the last two months, Perloff’s book on the coronavirus pandemic and its weaponization by world governments, ‘Covid-19 and the Agendas to Come: Red-Pilled,’ was suddenly “banned” by Amazon.com, the writer revealed on Twitter on Thursday.
If the PCR Test Is Unreliable – Why Are Health Officials Demanding the Public Be Tested?

For most empathetic humans, Syria represents everything that is wrong with humanity. This Thursday, the country’s “civil war” hit its seven-year anniversary, but the violence engulfing the country shows no signs of stopping.
However, one glaring problem in the conflict is that Syria means different things to different people. For the U.S. government and its enthusiasts, Syria is an opportunity for the American government to establish its moral high-ground, denouncing the Syrian government’s behavior even though the U.S. has also contributed to the horrors unfolding in Syria’s most violent conflict zones.
For the rest of us, it is the egregiousness of America’s longstanding interventionist foreign policy that causes the most shock and outrage.
Right now, the U.S. military controls approximately 30 percent of Syrian territory, including Syria’s most lucrative oil fields. How can that be? And why do we accept it?
Another NATO ally, Turkey, is also in the process of seizing a sizable chunk of Syria for itself, killing hundreds in the process. Turkey is even slaughtering the very same people the U.S. has celebrated for years as the foundation of the most effective fighting force against ISIS — the Kurds — but the whole world is looking the other way. These violations of international law continually go unreported, yet we are supposed to believe that these same countries want the Syrian government to be dismantled for the betterment of the Syrian people.
U.S. Budget Deficit Triples To Record $3.1 Trillion In 2020 As U.S. Spends 90% More Than It Collects

Those who have been following the record surge in US public debt (excluding the roughly $100 trillion in off-balance sheet obligations), which exploded by $3 trillion in the three months following the covid shutdowns and which just hit an all time high $27.1 trillion this week, will be all too aware that the US budget deficit this year – and every year after – will be staggering.
