TO EVERYONE WHO COMMENTED ON A POST OF MINE LATELY…
THANK YOU!!!!!
As part of a housecleaning effort, I accidentally deleted two folders that my comments were getting auto filtered into when people commented on my posts at any different sites. Normally, they file into their respective folders automatically, so I rarely saw them. Over the past day or so, I’ve actually seen most of the comments, and many of them were quite amusing!
WOW! SOME OF YOU ARE SERIOUS HATERS!
For my own personal amusement, I considered doing a story on the dumbing down of the American electorate, and to support my thesis I was going to include screenshots of many of your comments. I’d say in almost a full third of the comments, I actually cover the point you accuse me of not knowing INSIDE the post. I’m not sure when people got so lazy that they began reading headlines, and somehow by reading that one line, came to the conclusion they had anything to offer that anyone else in the world would care enough to read. LOL.
I was also highly amused by the people who called me an idiot for suggesting some of the ideas or theories that that I did in particular posts. In every instance I saw a comment like that, there was a line right in the post saying something like the following:
“I am not suggesting I have the the answers to the questions I pose, however I am going to pose some questions, and draw your attention to stories that have been in the news recently, and YOU decide what you think is going on, or just HOW twisted this administration REALLY is.“
It seems like if many of you all had YOUR way, the world would still be flat, and the sun would still rotate around the earth. Since many of those nasty comments were from folks with poor reading comprehension skills, assuming they read the article at all, and never backed up their positions with 75-100 articles the way I do, I’m going to go off the assumption that many of those comments came from folks who’s elevator doesn’t go to the top floor. Being the swell guy that I am, I’m going to give you some free advice the smarter people in your communities have already figured out:
IF YOU DON’T LIKE MY STUFF, DON’T READ IT!
My mailbox is fixed now, so if you feel better venting like that, vent away, but know that your efforts will be in vein, and I’ll probably never read it. Who knows though? Since I absolutely got a kick out of how angry I made some of you, I may need to do that more often, but you should probably know that while you’re foaming at the month, and I’m in your head, you can’t afford the mortgage in my head…. OOOOOOORRRRRRRRR
PUT YOUR MONEY WHERE YOUR MOUTH IS AND BEGIN WRITING!!!!!!!
FIRST: I'LL BE POSTING MUCH LESS THAN USUAL UNTIL AUGUST!
SECOND: I NEED MORE WRITERS (CONSISTENTLY)!
If I can get 4-10 ADDITIONAL WRITERS working on either a story per day, or 2-3 per week, then my intention is to have the entire site given a major overhaul, and begin to look to MASSIVELY grow the site. If you have not read: IS IT TOO LATE TO ESCAPE AMERICA… EVEN BEFORE MARTIAL LAW IS DECLARED, please do so. It will help explain why more writers are needed so DESPERATELY!
THIRD: Please also check out the following links:
6 MILLION AMERICANS RENOUNCE THEIR CITIZENSHIP AND LEAVE!
221% INCREASE IN ONE YEAR OF AMERICANS RENOUNCING CITIZENSHIP?
With the new “NET NEUTRALITY LAWS” going into effect basically making Obama supreme dictator of the Internet too, we probably only have a limited amount of time to get valuable information out. The more people working on stories, the more people we can educate!
MOST OF US REALLY MISS ANDREW BREITBART!
HOW COULD WE NOT RIGHT?
I WONDER HOW MANY PEOPLE KNOW BREITBART BEGAN HIS CAREER AS A LIBERAL WRITER FOR THE HUFFINGTON POST, AND HE WAS INSTRUMENTAL IN HELPING TO GROW THAT EMPIRE OF FILTH BEFORE HE FINALLY SAW THE LIGHT, OPENED HIS MIND, AND REALIZED CONSERVATISM IS THE ANSWER! I SUPPOSE AFTER BEING KNEE DEEP IN THE LIES DAY IN AND DAY OUT, IT DOES NOT TAKE LONG TO REALIZE WHAT LIBERALS SAY, AND WHAT LIBERALS ACTUALLY DO COULD NOT POSSIBLY BE ANY MORE OPPOSITE!
MOSTLY WE REMEMBER ANDREW, BECAUSE HE WAS A CENTURY CENTURY PIONEER IN THE REBIRTH OF CITIZEN JOURNALISM!

CITIZEN JOURNALISM HAS BEEN THE BACKBONE OF AMERICAN SOCIETY SINCE THOMAS PAINE WROTE “COMMON SENSE” OR “THE CRISIS!”
“THESE ARE THE TIMES THAT TRY MENS’ SOULS…”
Does that sound familiar? That was Thomas Paine and Citizen Journalism! For more on “The Crisis” see below. That was before we had our state run soviet style propaganda that masquerades as "news." How Stuff Works Writes:
Citizen journalism refers to any type of news gathering and reporting — writing and publishing articles about a newsworthy topic, or posting photographs or video of a newsworthy event — that is done by members of the general public rather than the professional news agencies commonly referred to as "mainstream media." Citizen journalism has been in existence at least since Thomas Paine wrote self-published pamphlets like Common Sense that stoked the fires of independence in 1776 [source: Glaser]. But any conversation about citizen journalism in the modern age is mostly a conversation about the transformative effect of the Internet on the democratization of information.
I'VE GOT 100,000 FOLLOWERS ON THE SOCIAL PLATFORMS I USE…
SO I'VE ALREADY BUILT AN AUDIENCE FOR YOU…
NOW I JUST NEED WRITERS TO REPORT NEWS!
DO YOU WANT A BLOG WITH AN INSTANT FOLLOWING?
SOMEONE PLEASE TAKE THIS PLATFORM AND USE IT FOR GOOD!
Before the Internet, only professional journalists had access to the technology and organizational infrastructure to publish their work to a large audience. If the average citizen wanted to contribute to the news cycle, he or she could write a letter to the editor or circulate a homemade newspaper or "zine" through the mail. But today, armed with a PC and a high-speed Internet connection, absolutely anyone can share newsworthy information and opinions with a worldwide audience.
New York University journalism professor Jay Rosen offers this definition of citizen journalism: "When the people formerly known as the audience employ the press tools they have in their possession to inform one another, that's citizen journalism [source: Rosen]." Thanks to technological innovations, these "press tools" now include desktop publishing software, digital cameras and video camcorders, and blogging software and social media Web sites for publishing material online.
Amateur journalists have been responsible for a number of notable "scoops" in the past decade. In 2004, a team of conservative bloggers exposed fraudulent documents used in a "60 Minutes" story about President George W. Bush's military service. The controversy, known as Rathergate, led to the firing of several CBS employees and tarnished the reputation of respected journalist Dan Rather, who left the network in 2006. Photos and videos shot by eyewitnesses during the the 2004 Indian Ocean Tsunami, 2005 London Tube bombings and the 2007 Virginia Tech shootings also provided vivid imagery that brought those stories home [source: Mediabistro].
The rise of citizen journalism has been controversial, because it raises the question: what does it mean to be a "professional" journalist if everyone is a journalist? Critics of citizen journalism argue that real journalists, professional or amateur, adhere to certain standards like fact checking, naming sources, searching out opinions on both sides of an issue and avoiding libelous statements [source: Hogg]. You don't need to have a degree in journalism or carry press credentials to practice these principles, but publishing a personal opinion about a politician or posting a grainy cell phone video of a celebrity does not necessarily make you a journalist.
Interestingly, in the wake of mass budget cuts to U.S. newspapers, largely due to the rise of the Internet as a communications tool, mainstream media outlets have quickly (and somewhat ironically) moved to incorporate elements of citizen journalism into their news programs and publications. Cable news networks solicit viewer photos and videos of breaking news stories. Newspaper reporters write blogs and update Twitter accounts, inviting reader interaction and participation. After all, if the local paper doesn't have the staff to cover City Hall, then bloggers will step in to publicize issues that matter to local readers [source: Stverak].

YOUR HELP IS NEEDED NOW MORE THAN EVER!
FACEBOOK NOW HAS AN EVEN SHADIER WAY TO TRY TO SILENCE CONSERVATIVES!
FACEBOOK IS JUST DOING WHAT FACEBOOK DOES…
Carbonated TV Reports: "In a recently released statement, Facebook Inc. announced that a new option for "REPORTING FALSE STORIES" has been added to the website." Don't THINK liberals won't be SWARMING!
It’s not enough that FACEBOOK LISTENS AND RECORDS YOU WHEN YOU THINK YOU ARE IN THE PRIVACY OF YOUR OWN HOME, or that every single thing you type while on Facebook IS RECORDED BY WAY OF A KEYSTROKE TRACKER whether you actually post what you typed or not. No, not enough. It’s not enough FACEBOOK MADE PEOPLE UNWILLING GUINEA PIGS IN A PSYCHOLOGICAL EXPERIMENT IT PLAYED OUT ON THEIR NEWS FEEDS DURING THE 2012 ELECTION CYCLE.
Not only does Mark Zuckerberg see his Facebook platform as the method by which people will get their news in the future, ZUCKERBERG WANTS TO BE THE ARBITER OF WHAT CONSTITUTES AS ‘NEWS.’ Many conservatives like myself have experienced a healthy dose of Zuckerberg’s censorship practices over the last year. Ideally, Zuckerberg wants to censor 2nd Amendment Supporters, Tea Party Groups, and Conservative News sites in general. To help him in his quest to do so, FACEBOOK MADE GRANTING THE NSA, CIA, & FBI ACCESS TO YOUR COMPUTER OR PHONE A MANDATORY REQUIREMENT TO USE FACEBOOK BEGINNING JANUARY 1, 2015.
NOW MARK HAS A NEW TOY…
MEET THE LIBERAL TROLL…
YOU CAN BET THIS NEW TOOL WILL CENSOR REAL NEWS!
Remember when Facebook was planning to charge its users a membership fee, or when Paul Krugman had declared bankruptcy? Don’t forget the time when people thought they could actually charge their iPhones by heating the devices up in microwaves.
As we all now know, none of these news stories were true, but they all were hot on the Internet for many days. And they all went viral on Facebook, passed on by the gullible masses.
With a user base of 1.35 billion members, the leading social media website has finally realized its responsibility, and wants to weed hoax stories from its users’ news feeds.
In a recently released statement, Facebook Inc. announced that a new option for "REPORTING FALSE STORIES" has been added to the website.
If you see a news story that you think is a hoax, all you have to do is click on the post to hide the story, and report its content as false.
“To reduce the number of these types of posts, News Feed will take into account when many people flag a post as false. News Feed will also take into account when many people choose to delete posts. This means a post with a link to an article that many people have reported as a hoax or chosen to delete will get reduced distribution in News Feed. This update will apply to posts including links, photos, videos and status updates,” said Facebook.
The website claims that this update won’t impact majority of the publishers; only the publishers that frequently post hoaxes and scams will be affected.

BUT I NEED YOUR HELP!
In the event you have not seen or read Facebook’s new 2015 SHADY PRIVACY AGREEMENT, it is worth noticing that in 2015, to use Facebook you must adhere to their privacy agreement. Within that agreement it states: Sometimes we GET DATA FROM OUR AFFILIATES or our advertising partners, customers and "OTHER THIRD PARTIES" that HELPS US (OR THEM) deliver ads, understand online activity, and GENERALLY make Facebook better.
IF YOU DON'T THINK "OTHER PARTIES" INCLUDES THE CIA, FBI, & NSA, KEEP READING!
Joe Biggs Infowars reporter brings us the latest…
[Audio/Video below cannot be seen in Newsletter – have to go to Blog]
IT’S NOT ON THE FIRST PAGE OF PRIVACY TERMS, YOU HAVE TO DIG FOR IT:
Other information we receive about you
We also receive other types of information about you:
We receive data about you whenever you use or are running Facebook, such as when you look at another person's timeline, send or receive a message, search for a friend or a Page, click on, view or otherwise interact with things, use a Facebook mobile app, or make purchases through Facebook.
When you post things like photos or videos on Facebook, we may receive additional related data (or metadata), such as the time, date, and place you took the photo or video.
We receive data from or about the COMPUTER, MOBILE PHONE , or OTHER DEVICES you use to install Facebook apps or to access Facebook, including when multiple users log in from the same device. This may include NETWORK and communication information, such as your IP ADDRESS or mobile PHONE NUMBER, and other information about things like your INTERNET SERVICE, OPERATING SYSTEM, location, the type (including identifiers) of the device or browser you use, or the pages you visit. For example, we may get your GPS or other location information so we can tell you if any of your friends are nearby, or we could request device information to improve how our apps work on your device.
We receive data whenever you visit a game, application, or website that uses Facebook Platform or visit a site with a Facebook feature (such as a social plugin), sometimes through cookies. This may include the date and time you visit the site; the web address, or URL, you're on; technical information about the IP address, browser and the operating system you use; and, if you are logged in to Facebook, your User ID.
Sometimes we GET DATA FROM OUR AFFILIATES or our advertising partners, customers and "OTHER THIRD PARTIES" that HELPS US (OR THEM) deliver ads, understand online activity, and GENERALLY make Facebook better. For example, an advertiser may tell us information about you (like how you responded to an ad on Facebook or on another site) in order to measure the effectiveness of – and improve the quality of – ads.

If you are one of those who read that and thought, “Well I’m not leaving Facebook… I don’t do anything illegal, so I have nothing to worry about…,” then WOW are you missing the point. QUESTION: Do you think the Tea Party groups the IRS targeted were afraid of doing anything “illegal” when they were targeted for trying to exercise FREE SPEECH? If you say yes, GET OUT OF HERE, and don’t come back. The point is, once that door is cracked, there is no turning back. That is WHY before the National Defense Authorization Act, we had this great little Amendment contained within the Bill of Rights (back when we HAD a Bill of Rights) that read as follows:
"The right of the people to be secure in their persons, houses, papers,, and effects, against unreasonable searches and seizures, shall not be violated, and no Warrants shall issue, but upon probable cause, supported by Oath or affirmation, and particularly describing the place to be searched, and the persons or things to be seized. "
Notice it says “SHALL NOT BE VIOLATED.” There is NOTHING ambiguous about the intended meaning there. ZIP! ZERO! Under our Constitution a SEARCH occurs when GOVERNMENT conduct violates a REASONABLE EXPECTATION of privacy. Notice that says GOVERNMENT. That means is if your child’s principal picks up your child’s backpack because he or she suspects there are drugs in the backpack, and goes on to find drugs, your child’s Fourth Amendment Right was not violated. Principals are not government agents. The same goes for employers; they are not GOVERNMENT AGENTS either.
A person is said to have a REASONABLE EXPECTATION of privacy in places like: THEIR HOME, A HOTEL ROOM, THEIR OFFICE, THE BACKYARD OF THEIR HOME, THEIR LUGGAGE, etc. Places where we DO NOT have a reasonable expectation against the government include: PUBLIC STREETS, OPEN FIELDS, OUR GARBAGE CANS (EVEN WHEN PLACED BY THE CURB ON THE STREET), or ITEMS ABANDONED. For anything else the government has to have a WARRANT, and absent EXIGENT CIRCUMSTANCES (which I won’t even get into), to get a warrant THREE REQUIREMENTS have to be met:
Search warrant must be issued by a NEUTRAL MAGISTRATE
There must be PROBABLE CAUSE to believe that the items sought are the FRUIT, INSTRUMENTALITIES, or EVIDENCE of a crime
Warrant must describe the PROPERTY and PLACE to be searched with PARTICULARITY
Pay careful attention to that last one. It means FISHING EXPEDITIONS ARE NOT PERMITTED (AKA fishing through your computer). Under our constitution The most basic definition of a seizure is when government meaningfully interferes with an individual’s possessory property rights or liberty. So in order to have a seizure of a person or property, there must be a meaningful interference with a person’s property or with their liberty. Pillaging through your computer I would CERTAINLY think is a “MEANINGFUL INTERFERENCE!”
I posted quite some time ago, in addition to the copy of your calls on tape at the NSA, IF YOU HAVE FACEBOOK MESSENGER INSTALLED ON YOUR SMARTPHONE, THEN BY VIRTUE OF INSTALLING MESSENGER, YOU GRANTED FACEBOOK THE RIGHT TO RECORD YOUR CALLS AT WILL.

SOMETIMES it pays to actually read the disclosures! Whether you are using Facebook Messenger or not, the app works directly with your phone’s mic, so it makes no difference if the program is in use. In that way it is much like what the government has been doing for years (SEE VIDEO BELOW!). Most people don’t know even if your phone is POWERED OFF, the government is listening. The only way to STOP them is to remove the battery. Notice how you can’t do that on most phones anymore?
HERE IS A REAL GEM!
[Audio/Video below cannot be seen in Newsletter – have to go to Blog]
THAT VIDEO WON’T BE UP LONG… IT NEVER IS!
MOST COPIES HAVE BEEN TAKEN DOWN BY HIS HIGHNESS’S ASS.
By the way, government has been doing that for 5-10 years now. Only recently did people realize it was not “conspiracy!” Hopefully you knew all that already, so when I tell you NOT ONLY IS FACEBOOK RECORDING YOUR EVERY WORD, THEY ARE ALSO TRACKING YOUR KEYSTROKES. REMEMBER the email you ALMOST sent your girlfriend or wife while drunk, but you deleted it instead?
NEWS FLASH: IT’S STILL ON FILE AT FACEBOOK!
DOESN’T IT MAKE YOU SICK TO LEARN THEY DON’T PAY TAXES NOW TOO!
Also, it stands to reason that if LOCAL LAW ENFORCEMENT CAN TAP INTO YOUR LAPTOP CAMERA WITHOUT YOU KNOWING AND SPY ON YOU, the NSA and Facebook are doing the same, so I suggest putting your screens down whenever your computer is not in use.
If by now you haven’t figured out that Facebook is in cahoots with the government, then I feel for you but for those who are well aware of the issues it’s high time you switched over to Seen.is a place similar to Facebook but without all the censorship crap!
[Audio/Video below cannot be seen in Newsletter – have to go to Blog]
Here are some of the differences you’ll find at Seen.is:
No censorship! Keep in mind we do have a Terms of Service that will need to be followed for things like pornography, copyright violations and defamation. If we receive a complaint, we’ll investigate. If you are accustomed to the freewheeling style at Before It’s News, we think you’ll enjoy Seen.is
