A home was heavily damaged after an operation to find gang members who are indicted on 97 counts.

SWAT members were looking for Jashavious Keel. He is one of the suspects named in a Chatham County indictment. The district attorney's office said 14 West 61st Street is his last known address.

Please add me. Don’t know if I have anything to contribute, but it sounds like an interesting conversation.

But, one of these days, one of these raids is going to eclipse Waco.

DO you mean like the opening chapter of Absolved? But in reality?

How in the hell do people come up with these names? Do they take a hand full of scrabble tiles, throw them in the air and just copy down the letters no matter what order they are in?

You made the mistake of asking.

From John Ross' novel Unintended Consequences:

    G.G. Jackson was one of many women employed by agencies of the
  federal government. She had been born in Chicago's South Side in
  1963. Her mother, Shavonna Jackson, had been fifteen at the time.
  Like many 15-year-old single mothers, Shavonna Jackson had not
  thought much about the realities of motherhood, including the
  immediate problem of what to name her offspring.

    Concurrently, overworked interns on rotation in ghetto hospitals
  did what they could to entertain themselves amid 20-hour days in
  depressing surroundings. In 1963, as in all other years, one of the
  standard gambits among interns assigned to inner-city delivery rooms
  was to see who could cause the most outrageous name to be printed
  on the birth certificate of children born to ghetto teenagers.

    The second week of February, 1963 saw some serious competition among
  interns in south Chicago. In a five-day period, there were Chicago-area
  births registered for Madison Avenue Washington, Epluribus Wilson,
  Nosmo King (inspired by a waiting room sign), Simian Cook, and Anus
  Brown. The award that week, however, went to a young doctor from
  Grosse Pointe, Michigan, who hated working in the Chicago facility.
  He had suggested to Miss Jackson that she give her infant daughter
  a distinctive, happy-sounding name, and offered one he thought
  appropriate. He pronounced the first name with the accent on the
  second syllable, and Shavonna thought it sounded nice. Like 'Gloria',
  only fancier. People who read the name would pronounce it differently,
  but Shavonna could not read, so the impact of the intern's joke was
  not felt for some time.


But that is fiction, of course...or is it?

Sure, I was giving out examples, but it was certainly meant for anyone who is a truly independent thinker who is willing to take on totalitarian, nanny state mindsets of any kind and is willing to unite with libertarians, at the very least Rand Paul type libertarians, to do so.

Who was in charge of all that? None other than ERIC HOLDER! Evil POS!

You have a reference for that?

In 93 Holder was a US Attorney for DC.

We need to see these financial settlements for such gross abuse and incompetence come out of the pension fund of those who are truly incompetent, instead of being taken out of the hides of taxpayers.

Solzhenitsyn

There is an excerpt from his writings about what the people *should have done* when the secret police came.

Will history *again* repeat itself?
