The Day in Gun Violence – NYTimes.com

A man was shot in the leg by someone in a passing car as he walked down a Jacksonville, Fla., street Monday afternoon. After the shooting, the victim hobbled down Plymouth Street to the Sunrise Food Store, where the manager told him not to get blood in the store and to wait outside for an ambulance. It was the second shooting in the neighborhood in three days.

CENSORED NEWS: Tohono O’odham and Arizona police stalk human rights activists

While the ATF was smuggling AK47s to the cartels in Mexico, violent crime soared, and Tucson schools were closing for lack of funds, Tucson police were spending enormous sums of money stalking human rights activists, according to a new report.

Tohono O’odham Police assisted Arizona police spying on Tohono O’odham and Navajo activists. For Tohono O’odham police, this is the latest in exposures of how the police department stalks human rights activists in an attempt to oppress and silence them.

Phoenix police used an online police analyst, Brenda Dowhan, to stalk activists on Facebook and social media, according to the report, Dissent or Terrorism, How the Nation’s Counter Terrorism Apparatus, in Partnership with Corporate America, Turned on Occupy Wall Street.

USDA’s Poultry Proposal Endangers Eaters, Not Just Employees | Food Safety News

USDA’s Poultry Proposal Endangers Eaters, Not Just Employees | Food Safety News.

 

If the experience of passing a new food safety law for FDA taught us anything, it is that consumers, industry, and regulators can work together to further the goals of public health. Similar consensus was reached in the mid‐1990s, when then‐Secretary Dan Glickman convened all stakeholders in a series of public meetings to map out a modern program for preventive controls in meat and poultry products.

When all parties trust that they share a common goal—to prevent illness—alliances like these can move mountains of public health policy in the right direction.

When consumer and worker advocates speak out so strongly against a proposal like the one put forth by USDA to overhaul poultry, it should give everyone pause. Rather than speeding up the process and dashing for the getaway car, the agency should slow down and heed the alarms of its stakeholders.

Bavaria and German government reviving claims on Sudentenland – Still home for Fascism and Nazi’s…

Panels also alleged that in Czechoslovakia an unprecedented “discrimination of Sudeten Germans” took place, quoting a publication as its source that had been published in 1936 by the printing house of the Nazi Karl Hermann Frank. Frank, soon thereafter, had become a member of the inner circle of the Nazis in power in Prague and was later responsible for the Lidice Massacre.
