Baltimore THUGS Tried To Light This Pizza Shop Owner on Fire

The THUGS, Criminals, and scum of Baltimore took out their anger not just on the police but on everyday hardworking citizens and business owners.  These  are the same business owners who give jobs to the people of Baltimore and well as provide services to the community.  These are the same business owners who pay property taxes which keep the infrastructure of Baltimore functioning.   Essam el Ghannam, an immigrant, the owner of a pizza shop, which was torched by the Baltimore rioters on Monday.


  When Essam asked the police for help he was told to run and hide.  Essam asked what about his car? The police responded that he would just have to let it burn.  How many people in America in today's economy can just 'Let their car burn'?  Not willing to give up his family sole means of transportation he grabed his young daughter and made for his family's car. Leaving his business for the rioters and thugs to burn.  
 On the way to his car a 14 year old African-American female squirted lighter fluid on him and his car. Other African-American males began throwing matches at Essa, his daughter and their car. 

Now, the liberal, left-wing media want to take American's to task for calling these low life, criminals...'THUGS.'  Those in Washington who want to spin this a racial issue and use the Baltimore riots as a means to foster even more decisiveness have the audacity to take offense at the word 'THUGS.'  
 
Why doesn't someone in the media take offense at the fact a 14 year old African-American female and other African-American males were attempting to burn a man and his young daughter alive.   All for the offense of owning a business in Baltimore. The only thing that can be taken from this is that Washington is pushing a narrative of Nobel Savages against a brutal corrupt city police force.  

That might actually work if it wasn't for the fact Baltimore is 72% black, run by a Black Mayor, and a Black police chief, and a 80% Black city Council.  Those facts are a problem for Washington and the liberal, left-wing media.  Because, they can run the old tired race card , but it won't find any traction in this case.

Freedom to be Christian is Under Fire in America




sweet_cakes_top_img_by_g-f_017
Committedhonest, hard working American Christians, owners of an Oregon bakery, Sweet Cakes, learned Friday that there is a severe price to pay for following their Christian faith.

A judge for the Oregon Bureau of Labor and Industries (BOLI) recommended a lesbian couple should receive $135,000 in damages for their emotional suffering after Sweet Cakes by Melissa refused to make them a wedding cake. 

As a result - Aaron and Melissa Klein could lose everything they own — including their home. This is WRONG on so many levels.  When a man contacted HOMOSEXUAL cake shops in Oregon and asked them to make Anti-gay wedding cakes ALL of the 5 shops said they refused to make the cakes. 

When, Oregon Bureau of Labor and Industries (BOLI) was contacted and asked to act on these 5 homosexual owned and operated cake shops the  Oregon Bureau of Labor and Industries (BOLI) refused to get involved. 

Also, notice how the ONLY cake shop  Oregon Bureau of Labor and Industries (BOLI) went after was a Christian owned cake shop.  No muslim , Hindu, Buddhists businesses were targeted.  It is very obvious that the far left in not interested in fair play, they are simply attacking Christians.   This is an overt cover assault on Christians in America.      
The Oregonian reports the recommended penalty is not final and could be raised or lowered by State Labor Commissioner Brad Avakian.

Make no mistake, this is a direct assault by the far left against FREE SPEECH, FREEDOM of Religion, and the very bedrock of this nation, the Constitution. 

The controversy started in 2013 when Aaron Klein declined to provide a cake for a lesbian wedding. Later that year, the women filed a complaint against Klein and his wife, Melissa. This was Aaron and Melissa Klein GOD given right to not be a party to something that goes against their Christian faith. 


So, Oregon is stating that Aaron and Melissa Klein MUST under penalty of law be forced to violate their deeply held religious beliefs. The state of Oregon is saying by that FREE thought, FREE Speech, FREEDOM to believe and act on deeply held religious beliefs are no longer allowed.  That means anytime a homosexual demands something from any one engaging in a for profit business in Oregon that individual/business must give up their Constitutional rights. It now means that the far left has the power to make Christian business owners second class citizens.  So, just like Animal FARM some animals are more equal then others...

Within hours of the ruling, the Family Research Council facilitated the establishment of a GoFundMe account to help the Kleins raise the money the need. In less than eight hours, more than $100,000 was raised.

However, late Friday GoFundMe pulled the plug — sending this message to would-be donors:

“After careful review by our team, we have found the ‘Support Sweet Cakes By Melissa’ campaign to be in violation of our Terms and Conditions,” the message read. “The money raised thus far will still be made available for withdrawal.”

Family Research Council President Tony Perkins blasted the harsh penalty levied against the Kleins.

“The state of Oregon has given a new meaning to shotgun weddings,” Perkins said. “You will be forced to participate in same-sex weddings and violate your beliefs.”

Perkins wondered what impact the Oregon ruling would have on religious freedom across the country. 

“If Americans are not free to decline to be involved in a specific activity that violates their beliefs, then we are not free,” he said. 
It’s not exactly clear what led GoFundMe to drop the fundraising drive - but Perkins blamed it on gay activists.

“This reveals two very important aspects of the redefinition of marriage, Americans are not going along with it and two - the intolerance of those trying to redefine marriage is historically unprecedented,” Perkins said.

Samaritan's Purse a Christian ministry run by Franklin Graham, has stepped up and offered to raise funds for the embattled Christian couple. The website can be found here.


If you believe that Americans have the GOD given right to live, act, and profess their religious beliefs while running a honest, hard working business then I ask you to donate to Aaron and Melissa Klein owners of 'Sweet Cakes.'

The DHS is going to track the movements of all AMERICANS




The Department of Homeland Security is seeking bids from companies able to provide law enforcement officials with access to a national license-plate tracking system — a year after canceling a similar solicitation over privacy issues.

The reversal comes after officials said they had determined they could address concerns raised by civil liberties advocates and lawmakers about the prospect of the department’s gaining widespread access, without warrants, to a system that holds billions of records that reveal drivers’ whereabouts.

In a privacy impact assessment issued Thursday, the DHS says that it is not seeking to build a national database or contribute data to an existing system.

The DHS is going to track the movements of all AMERICANS in real time. Very soon you will be questioned when you drive or travel outside of the APPROVED zones.   
 

Instead, it is seeking bids from companies that already gather the data to say how much they would charge to grant access to law enforcement officers at Immigration and Customs Enforcement, a DHS agency. Officials said they also want to impose limits on ICE personnel’s access to and use of the data.


“These restrictions will provide essential privacy and civil liberty protections, while enhancing our agents’ and officers’ ability to locate and apprehend suspects who could pose a threat to national security and public safety,” DHS spokeswoman Marsha Catron said in a statement. 

Marsha Catorn is a Liar.  The Mexican border is in free flow. Hundreds of undocumented illegal aliens travel across the Mexican boarder everyday. IF, DHS was even remotely  serious about National Security they would close the Mexican Boarder. 

The national license-plate tracking system is about ratcheting down control over the American people. The national license-plate tracking system is about tracking illegals, and most certainly not National Security. It is about ratcheting down control over the American people.

Privacy advocates who reviewed a copy of the privacy impact assessment said it fell short.

Fell short? That's like saying obama only lies some of the time...

“If this goes forward, DHS will have warrantless access to location information going back at least five years about virtually every adult driver in the U.S., and sometimes to their image as well,” said Gregory T. Nojeim, senior counsel for the Center for Democracy & Technology.

EXACTLY, real time tracking information on every American.

Commercial license-plate tracking systems already are used by the FBI and the Drug Enforcement Administration, as well as some local and state law enforcement agencies. Law enforcement groups say the fears of misuse are overblown. But news of the DHS solicitation triggered a public firestorm last year, leading Homeland Security Secretary Jeh Johnson to cancel it and order a review of the privacy concerns raised by advocates and lawmakers.

I love how Law enforcement groups consider the concerns of the American people as 'over blown.' There is a reason why Americans are up in ARMS over this Draconian over reach of the Federal government.  Because the Constitution of the United States guarantees the right of free travel for all Americans.


Over the following months, ICE and DHS privacy officials developed policies aimed at increasing “the public’s trust in our ability to use the data responsibly,” according to a senior DHS privacy officer. The DHS is the first federal agency, officials said, to issue a privacy assessment on such a solicitation.


Commercial license-plate-tracking systems can include a variety of data. Images of plate numbers are generally captured by high-speed cameras that are mounted on vehicles or in fixed locations. Some systems also capture images of the drivers and passengers.
The largest commercial database is owned by Vigilant Solutions, which as of last fall had more than 2.5 billion records. Its database grows by 2.7 million records a day.
DHS officials say Vigilant’s database, to which some field offices have had access on a subscription basis, has proved valuable in solving years-old cases. Privacy advocates, however, are concerned about the potential for abuse and note that commercial data banks generally do not have limits on how long they retain data.

ICE said it will restrict agents’ access to the data to the number of years corresponding to the relevant statute of limitations for any crime being investigated. For civil immigration cases, where there is no statute of limitations, the agency is adopting a five-year limit, officials said.

ICE officers and agents also will be required to enter the type of crime associated with each query to gain access to the database, and there will be random audits to ensure that no one is using the database to look up information on personal associates. Officers and agents may search only for particular plate numbers.

ICE queries will not be shared with other agencies, unless they are working on a joint investigation, a senior DHS official said. ICE personnel also will be able to put plate numbers of interest on an “alert list,” enabling those personnel to be notified almost instantly when a plate is spotted.

Ginger McCall, director of the Electronic Privacy Information Center’s Open Government Project, said the new safeguards are not “meaningful.” She called the data retention requirements “exceedingly vague” and said tracking a person through alert lists without a warrant is troubling.

The senior DHS privacy officer said case law does not require the government to seek a warrant for such data.
