THIS CANDIDATE CAN'T SPEAK FOR THE MIDDLE CLASS
Those gold plated fixtures tell me that Trump's candidacy is just one big ego trip.

Man-made pollution is a bigger threat to ocean life than carbon emissions are to

ASIANS IN AMERICA WORK HARDER AND OUTSHINE AMERICANS
BarkGrowlBite | August 27, 2015
Year after year, which students are at the top of their high school graduating classes? Asians. Which immigrant groups are the most succesful in establishing their own businesses? Asians. How do they do it? They do it by working harder than any other group, including native born Americans.
Nam Van Nguyen is one of those hard working Asians. He just got busted Wednesday for robbing more than 30 pharmacies and gas station across the Houston area in just a two-week period. Even though he got caught, you gotta admit that’s pretty good.
Click2Houston reports that “in each case he wore a baseball cap with sunglasses. He would purchase a candy or a pack of bubble gum, then pull out a weapon and demand cash from the register. He typically got away with $100 to $300 each time, but investigators say in one instance he stole about $1,000.”
Nam told Harris County sheriff’s investigators that he committed the robberies because he lost a lot of money gambling in Lake Charles, Louisiana. He said he owed his girlfriend more than $35,000.
Apparently Asians not only work harder, but they also have great girlfriends.
Nam is also a Gold Star parolee. Ten years ago he committed the same kind of robberies in Fort Bend County, which adjoins Harris County. He received a 25-year prison sentence and was recently paroled.

WARNING: THEFT OF KEYLESS CARS
42 percent of all British vehicle thefts are committed by hackers and those thefts are now occurring in the U.S.
And here you thought your new keyless car was safe from car thieves, Trey Rusk, a former Texas state law enforcement official and now an investigator with an auto theft task force, issues this warning backed up by an excerpt from the Daily Mail:
I attended the International Association of Auto Theft Investigators Conference in Phoenix the week of August 9. I thought you might want to pass this on to your readers.
Investigators from England told us that 42% of their vehicle thefts were due to vehicles being hacked. It has already arrived here, just not as rampant. I'm sure it will get worse.
The best advice is to buy a visible deterrent like a steering wheel lock. It may be old fashioned, but the thieves will probably move on instead of taking the time trying to defeat it.
From the Daily Mail:
For enterprising criminals, it didn’t take long to find a way of exploiting the technology of keyless cars.
When you buy a car fitted with this technology, you are issued with a keyless ignition fob programmed by the manufacturer with a unique 40-digit code. Place the fob on the dashboard, or just climb into the car with it, and the car’s onboard computer will detect the code. If it matches the one in its memory, the driver is allowed to start the car.
However, the computer is capable of doing more than just checking the code. It can also re-progamme a blank fob with a new code.
And here is where the trouble begins. For just £20, car thieves can buy a blank key fob and a hand-held box that plugs into the ‘on-board diagnostic port’ — a socket linked to the computer which is usually found next to the passenger side footwell.
The hand-held box tells the computer to reprogram the blank fob with a new code. It takes only a few seconds to create a fob that can be used in the car again and again.
These boxes are available on the internet and were designed so that garages and locksmiths could create replacement fobs for owners whose own sets had been lost or stolen.
But they are also easily available to thieves.
Thieves still have to get inside the cars, of course. Some do it the old-fashioned way by smashing a window. Others lurk close to a car as it parks and use a radio-scrambling device — again, easily bought on the internet — to stop the car locking when a driver presses the remote control button.
The devices they use are available on the internet via search engines, auction sites or, in some cases, direct from unscrupulous locksmiths and manufacturers.
After the driver walks away, unaware that he has left his car unlocked, the thieves can climb in, reprogram the security system … and drive off.
Police say drivers of keyless cars should invest in an old-fashioned steel crook lock that hooks around the steering wheel or pedals and costs from £30. These locks were popular in the Eighties and Nineties, but have fallen out of favor in recent years.

STUPID COP IS AS SOON TO BE STUPID EX-COP DOES
Philly cop caught shaking down motorists to buy fundraising tickets
BarkGrowlBite | August 23, 2015
Philadelphia police officer Matthew Zagursky had been given a fistful bunch of fundraising tickets to sell. What better way to get rid of the tickets than to shake down motorists.
Zagursky got caught on video telling a stopped driver and his male companion:
"You and your friend got any money to buy these thrill show tickets? Either you buy these or I take your car. 'Cause it's unregistered. Ten bucks each, man."
At first the driver reluctantly agrees to buy two tickets, but that wasn’t good enough for Zagursky. Then the cop accepted $30 for three tickets.
The tickets were for some sort of thrill show this fall. Funds raised were to go to the families of fallen police officers and firefighters.
Zagursky was also heard making a homophobic crack about the driver’s pink windshield wipers. The driver explained they honored his grandmother who has breast cancer. Yeah, right, and pigs can fly.
Instead of putting people in jail, it looks as if Zagursky could be headed to the slammer himself. When he was in the police academy, he must have dozed off during the extortion lesson.
When will cops realize that them video cameras are everywhere? This video was taken from inside the shakedown victim’s car and ended up on Facebook to the embarrassment of the Philadelphia Police Department and the detriment of soon to be ex-officer Matthew Zagursky.

TABASCO COPS GIVE COUPE DE GRACE AS FIRST AID
Mexican cops claim they gave first aid to two kidnappers injured in a police chase crash and that they died on the way to a hospital, but the autopsy showed they died from a coupe de grace
BarkGrowlBite | August 22, 2015
A bungled kidnapping attempt Friday night in Villahermosa, Tabasco, left eight people dead, including three cops. Two more cops were wounded.
The kidnapping of a businessman at a carwash was thwarted by a policeman who died in an exchange of gunfire. The kidnappers then fled in a Toyota with cops in hot pursuit. The suspects fired at the pursuing cops, killing two motorcycle officers. They then abandoned the Toyota and managed to carjack a VW Jetta. The chase ended when the bullet riddled Jetta crashed into a tree.
The official report released by the Ministry of Public Security for the State of Tabasco states that the attempted kidnapping took place Friday morning. The report claims that at the end of the chase three of the suspects were dead and two, a man and a woman, were still alive. They were given first aid by the cops but died on the way to a hospital.
That was the official version, but here is what witnesses reported and what the autopsies revealed.
The man was unconscious, but still alive. The woman was conscious. Instead of giving them first aid, the cops shot them, with the woman given a coupe de grace to the temple. The autopsies contradicted the official version and confirmed what the witnesses saw. Furthermore, the body of the other woman was found some distance from the crash with her dress pulled up above her waist and without panties. That would indicate she was taken from the scene and raped by a cop or cops, before being killed.
According to Reforma and Tabasco Hoy, it turns out that three of the crashed car’s occupants, a man and two women, were not accomplices and did not even know the kidnappers before that night. The kidnappers approached the two women in a night club and invited the women to go out with them to party. The women agreed to leave, but only if a male friend of theirs could come along. It was shortly after the trio got into the Toyota that the attempted kidnapping took place.
Ah, those Mexican cops! Ya gotta luv em.
