POPSPagan prisoners win right to have wands there's genuine concern prisoners are taking the system for a ride." Conservative MP Andrew Turner, who uncovered the new ruling, added: "This strikes me as bizarre. A lot of people would be worried about equating paganism with Christianity.". Brightest Blessings to Justice Reform Minister Maria Eagle. To Edward Garnier and Andrew Turner - grow up. Christianity is NOT "all that" to everybody.

POPSPortrait of Courage: Irena Sendler From the article: "In 1943, she was captured by the Nazis and tortured but refused to tell her captors who her co-conspirators were or where the bottles were buried. She also resisted in other ways. According to Felt, when Sendler worked in the prison laundry, she and her co-workers made holes in the German soldiers' underwear. When the officers discovered what they had done, they lined up all the women and shot every other one. It was just one of many close calls for Sendler."

POPSLawmakers Seek Probe of ‘Media Generals’
‘Not only must the inspector general now account for what it did and did not know about this state-sponsored propaganda effort, but they must also explain why, if they knew about the propaganda campaign, it was allowed to proceed,’ DeLauro said. ‘Additionally, we are calling for the inspector general to launch an investigation to ensure no detail surrounding this programme remains hidden,’ she added. The House members also want to know if the inspector general considers the programme to be illegal.

POPSThe Sean Bell Tragedy 
Seriously, what are you supposed to say to a story like this? 50 shots fired, unarmed suspect , and acquittal for the executioners, really? How the hell does that work? I keep screaming about the rise of the police state in this country and get lambasted regularly for being a paranoid freak, let me ask you a question, how do you think minorities, read different color than Isnora, Cooper, and Oliver living in New York felt hearing these murdering bastards were acquitted? It would have been reasonable to assume that it is still open season on human beings in New York city.

Here is a bit of truth for you, the day is coming when it aint going to matter what your skin color is, if you are perceived as a threat you will be murdered with impunity.
