Hero stands up for freedom of speech

This lady is a hero good for her to stand up under that pressure from the police force. A police officer’s job is to up hold the law not be the law. I think he should have at the very least lost his job and also served some jail time equal to what she served. If any private citizen falsely imprisoned another they would be punished with jail time officers should not get special treatment given the role they play in society.

Hello everyone, an important Canadian study was just released from the B.C. Centre for Excellence in HIV/AIDS. It suggests that drug law enforcement increases community violence. Here’s an article about it:

http://www.vancouversun.com/news/Gang+violence+increases+enforcement+steps+study/2713878/story.html

“A provocative new report from a B.C. HIV-research agency, however, suggests that throwing more police resources at the problem will only make the bloodshed worse, not bring peace to the streets. The majority of studies conducted on the issue over the last 20 years in the United States and elsewhere indicate that gang violence increases as law-enforcement activity against the drug trade steps up, says the report from the B.C. Centre for Excellence in HIV/AIDS.”

This ties in well with LEAP’s message. Stay tuned as there will be more about this study coming out in the next few weeks.

Glenn Beck has really turned a corner in the last 2 years. I think I might actually consider him a libertarian at least some what. Of Course the Judge has always been and always will be on our side.

A great simple explanation of how inflation works and why we can’t spend our way out of recession.
