Syracuse, N.Y. — Two police officers were killed Sunday night in a shootout on a suburban street in Salina. A Syracuse police officer and an Onondaga County sheriff’s deputy were both killed when they went to follow up on a traffic stop where the driver sped away, said Syracuse Police Chief Joe Cecile.

Reporting from Western New York: gas price at my local gas station jumped $0.13 in the last 24 hours. I've never seen a hike that fast. Is anyone else seeing the same thing? I already see gold prices shooting up. Is this gas price? Starting to catch up to it now?

I am looking for an image that I have seen numerous times in this forum. I believe it is a red-headed woman facing an oncoming storm. Does anyone know where I can find that photo?

Here's the 2nd video. Remember, it's from 2020 - but still applies today

My sincere apologies. While migrating to an upgraded laptop for future endeavors, I found two videos made during the 'Summer of Love' (2020) that were to be the launch for my video series - which got interrupted by well... life. So here there are. I look a little different these days, and hopefully, you'll see more of this crazy dude in the near future. These were just tests. It's Ironic that both of these videos still apply today. The first is unfortunately, prophetic. But maybe it will help someone. [Warning: this video was to address the black community directly, so...

I am looking for a decent place to host a web site or two. The plan is to post information the certain folks (you know who) might not like. No, I’m not talking porn in any form. Let’s put it this way: We don’t want this site to get ‘parlered’ if you know what we mean. It’s just a host that will be scalable. For the nerd/geeks out there, I am looking to install a LAMP stack for Wordpress with a CRUD backend attachment. Does anyone have any ideas?

History was made. Enough said.

They tell me it’s gone viral. One trucker (Chicago Ray) throws it down on social media, and it takes off. Frankly, this is much more interesting in the Fani Willis hearing. For those who haven’t heard, starting Monday. February 19, 2024 truckers will allegedly refuse to take loads into New York City in response to a so-called trial against one Donald J. Trump. In judicial actions that are literally listed as one of the grievances in the Declaration of Independence, some truckers (and supporters) have had enough, and are preparing to do the Real American version of ‘taking it to...

Question: Which Borders are More Important?I know this is going to sound like a rhetorical question, but could someone tell me why suddenly borders of other countries are more important than ours?This is a question being put out to not only the Real Americans out there but to all the blue and yellow flag waving warhawks who believe that we should empty the nation's treasury for a battle which is only going to escalate into something that no one wants.All while being invaded via air, land and sea.You see, I don't buy into the conventional wisdom that all of these...

This is not New York City folks. This is north of Niagara falls, New York on the other side. Seems we have an illegal invasion going on here too. And the residents all know it.

So, my Texas flag came in today. Of course I’m not from Texas (1,208 miles from the northern border). But I need some advice on how to properly display it with things the way there are. * American flag on top, Lone Star beneath. * Lone Stars on top, Stars and Stripes below * Lone Star by itself * Either, but hang Stars and Stripe upside down. * Ditch the American Flag; hang Texas flag on top with ‘Don’t Tread on Me’ flag below (yes, I own one of those too). I know the protocol, but I am open to...

Don’t Let the Colored Map Fool YouBy J.JohnsonMy tagline on this forum has been visible for some time. Today, as we see national maps that look similar to 1860, perhaps it’s starting to sink in: “We're at war, people. Start acting like it.”. The red state governors have taken their stands, while #45 says in the Braveheart vernacular: it’s time to “Unite the Clans”. But don’t be fooled. This is more than a red state / blue state thing.It’s about the people - folks in blue states getting red pilled at an alarming rate.It happens when you see them camped...

If one needs any evidence of American society falling apart, look no further than the newest tradecraft of America's domestic enemies, ‘swatting’; where such enemies exploit the time honored practice of emergency response measures, and turn it into a weapon. Like cross burnings of the past, it is meant to intimidate, produce fear, and in worse cases provoke victims to take actions that could prove fatal. It is in fact, the definition of modern day terrorism. Its continued use will rise exponentially unless Real Americans decide to take action against it.CNN recently defined swatting as “...a prank call made to...

Leave The World Behind - A Free Republic Movie ReviewBy J. JohnsonWhen I read the first reviews from this forum it appears that most folks couldn't get past the executive producers (who shall not be named in this article). My thought was well at least someone has to watch it to give an honest review and take on this movie. So last night, I decided to “ take one for the team”, and donate 2 hours and 21 minutes of my life that I’ll never get back. Here goes…Before grading, let’s start with that infamous line in the movies that...

word came across the wire as CAR BOMB, but details are sketchy, and I don't want to rush to judgement...

UPLAND, Calif. - An hours-long SWAT standoff in San Bernardino County took a tragic turn after the home at the center of the tense situation exploded in flames and hours later, the suspect was killed after deputies opened fire.

Has anyone heard from Clayton & Natali Morris (hosts of Redacted)? Last I heard there were to take a few days off. Saw one post from Clayton in Egypt, but their show (with over 2 million subs) seems to have vanished off the internet.

Just throwing it out there, but from all the videos and news reports I've seen. I can't believe that NO ONE saw this coming. If so, heads have got to roll here. Now we have the Israelis needing a boatload of hardware and other assets, that we've been donating to unmentioned criminal up north on a failing enterprise that folks are more skittish about bankrolling.

The criminal Paul Prediger, formerly known as Gaige Grosskreutz, chastised Kenosha County Eye for reporting first, that he secretly asked a judge to change his name. Grosskreutz is known for being the man who pointed a gun at then-17-year-old Kyle Rittenhouse during the riots of 2020 and was shot for it.

The Hawaiian Stand Off: A Teachable Moment.By J. JohnsonWhile watching with earnest about the happenings on Maui since August 8, 2023, a ran across a YouTube video of a man I believe named Eric West, who has been documenting actions there ever since. This video in question was a live stream where he and his son (I believe) ended up in a law enforcement matter that thankfully ended peacefully. During this standoff, Eric tried to assert his rights to film on a public road at or near Lahaina against the wishes of law enforcement. This was a teachable moment, and...
