UK: Three WHAT??? are under arrest for slaughtering ANOTHER British soldier, David Ryding, in the street?

David Ryding with his wife Nicola and daughter Mollie
The story as reported:  "A 26-year-old former soldier from Moreton has died after being attacked in the town of Rugby in the early hours of Sunday morning. David Ryding was so badly injured he was put on a life-support machine at University Hospital Coventry & Warwickshire.

"A statement from Warwickshire Police today said: “It soon became apparent that nothing could be done to save him and life was pronounced extinct at 3.30am this morning and his life-support machine has been turned off.”

"Police arrested a 21-year-old man from Rugby on suspicion of murder following the incident, which occurred at 5am on Sunday, at the Clock Tower in Market Place, Rugby. Two further men aged 25 and 27 have been arrested on suspicion of affray.

"Mr Ryding was a member the First Battalion the Mercian Regiment but retired from the service in 2011."   Emphasis in the original

Gee, I wonder who convinced the wife of a former British soldier murdered in the street to say she does not want people to “speculate about what happened?”  
"Britain has weathered many storms and the amount of devastation wreaked by the Luftwaffe during WW2 is not quite appreciated. Whole cities, not just London were bombed into semi oblivion.
"Were we told then, go easy on the Hun, old boy. They’re only human just like us’?
"Of course not. Newsreels promised retaliation and bombed out Britons took grim satisfaction in knowing that their Nazi counterparts would soon be suffering similar fates.
"It worked because those beleagured bombees knew that the state establishment was with them, on their sides and understood the feeling of anger." 

 
Audio: Churchill speaking after the evacuation of the British army from Dunkirk: We shall go on to the end, whatever the cost may be. The terrible destruction of British cities by the Nazi Luftwaffe was to begin.


Effort To Create New State Called ‘North Colorado’ Grows

CBS Local  "There’s a growing effort to create a 51st state out of parts of northeast Colorado.
"Ten counties, including Weld and Morgan, started talking about seceding last month. Now some people Lincoln and Cheyenne counties say they want to join a new state they’d call “North Colorado.”
"Organizers of the secession effort say their interests are not being represented at the state Capitol. Representatives from the 10 counties held a meeting on Monday in the town of Akron in Weld County to begin mapping the boundaries for the new state they say will represent the interests of rural Colorado."

What happened here?

Well, for starters, Howard Zinn, Hollywood, sensitivity, political correctness, the 60s.

Breaking – State moves to charge Zimmerman with 3d Degree Murder based on Aggravated Child Abuse

Legal Insurrection  "As expected, the Judge in the George Zimmerman case ruled that in addition to Second Degree Murder, she will instruct the jury on the lesser included offense of Manslaughter, as required by Florida case law.

"In a surprise move this morning, the prosecution asked the Judge to drop the Aggravated Assault charge and to instruct the jury on Third Degree Murder, which is murder in the course of committing a felony.

"The felony the State wanted as the predicate was Aggravated Child Abuse (Jury Instruction) because Trayvon Martin was 17 at the time of the shooting."

Zimmermann's defense found out this morning!
 

Stopping Amnesty Is up to You

 
Big Government "With campaign bundlers able to buy so much political influence, what is to stop them from pressuring the passage of an amnesty bill with mountains of cash to fill many a campaign war chest ahead of the 2014-midterm elections? The short answer is--you."

Kansas Rep. Tim Huelskamp on Wednesday managed to jab both President Barack Obama and former President Bill Clinton in less than 140 characters.

In a tweet on Wednesday afternoon, Rep. Tim Huelskamp (R-KS) wrote: “Most House Rs agree w/ most Senate Rs and Americans. Trusting Obama w/ border security is like trusting Bill Clinton w/ your daughter #tcot.”   rawstory
Politico  "Huelskamp was asked about the remarks by NBC News, where he called them a comment he made “offhand” but repeated the slam, according to NBC video.
“I made a comment in there, kind of offhand, that trusting Barack Obama with border security is like trusting my daughter with Bill Clinton. We just don’t trust him.” Quotes the Daily Kos, below
“We just don’t trust him,” Huelskamp said.

"It’s not the first time Huelskamp has dipped into the well of Clinton jokes on immigration reform. Two weeks ago, he said he wanted “hard and fast rules” to be met on immigration.

“The idea of letting this administration define border security is like letting Bill Clinton define sexual relations,” he said in June.

The leftist Daily Kos hit back 

By Rick Moran at American Thinker: Tweet of the month 
"Kansas Rep. Tim Huelskamp tweeted a 140 character gem yesterday:"

The press is predictable; I can visualize:
                       To Bill Clinton. "How do you feel...?
                       To Rep, Huelskamp, "Will you apologize...?

Harvard Prof Testifies Fallout of Manning Leak Damaged Wikileaks Image

Legal Insurrection "A Harvard law professor testified Wednesday in the court martial of Bradley Manning that the Army private’s leak of hundreds of thousands of classified materials changed how Wikileaks was viewed by government and media outlets."
....
"But former media partners of Wikileaks that were instrumental in publishing selective portions of those materials later abandoned Julian Assange and his organization over his handling of the information leaked by Manning.

"In 2011, against the warnings of collaborative media outlets, Wikileaks published over 1,000 of the US State Department cables that contained the names of individual activists who had been sources for the US government, placing those individuals in potential danger and chilling the environment for future leakers and whistleblowers."

This Year's Duke Lacrosse Case

Ann Coulter  "This week, instead of attacking a Hispanic senator, Marco Rubio, I will defend a Hispanic citizen, George Zimmerman, on trial for the murder of Trayvon Martin. (Zimmerman would make a better senator.)

"It's becoming painfully obvious why no charges were brought against Zimmerman in this case -- until Al Sharpton got involved. All the eyewitness accounts, testimony, ballistics and forensics keep backing up Zimmerman. We should send a big, fat bill for the whole thing to Sharpton, courtesy of MSNBC."

Rev. Al Sharpton interviews George Zimmerman’s attorney Mark O’Mara on MSNBC

"Sharpton asked Mark O’Mara about information released by the defense about Martin last week, about voice experts who have said the screams for help on the 911 calls on the night of the February 2012 shooting were not Zimmerman’s voice, and whether Sanford, Florida police erred in not initially arresting Zimmerman.
"Watch the segment above, and watch Sharpton’s reflections on the interview below:"
  He is at least more reasonable than he was when this story first broke.

Documents Obtained by Judicial Watch Detail Role of Justice Department in Organizing Trayvon Martin Protests


Judicial Watch  "Judicial Watch announced today that has obtained documents in response to local, state, and federal records requests revealing that a little-known unit of the Department of Justice (DOJ), the Community Relations Service (CRS), was deployed to Sanford, FL, following the Trayvon Martin shooting to help organize and manage rallies and protests against George Zimmerman.
....
According to the documents:....
....
“These documents detail the extraordinary intervention by the Justice Department in the pressure campaign leading to the prosecution of George Zimmerman,” said Judicial Watch President Tom Fitton. “My guess is that most Americans would rightly object to taxpayers paying government employees to help organize racially-charged demonstrations.”


Alan Caruba: When is a Law, Not a Law? When Obama Says So

Warning Signs  "Obamacare has been showing signs of being so unenforceable, so expensive, and so utterly stupid that Obama’s administration has had to engage in all manner of patently illegal waivers and delays to maintain theirs lies about it.

"In the words of the late Chinese Communist dictator, Mao Zedong, Obamacare has been “a great leap forward” to reform healthcare in America. In China, the Great Leap killed an estimated forty million people between 1958 and 1961. There is no way of knowing how many Obamacare would kill when (and if) it is fully implemented."

 

The Lost Meaning of Independence Day

Bruce Thornton   "Bound up in this idea of freedom, however, was its dependence on the virtues citizens had to possess in order to use this freedom responsibly and for the proper aims. For freedom was not th century called license, a selfish indulgence that cares nothing for the state as a whole either now or in the future. To act on whatever appetites and passions arise in one is to enslave the soul to them and subject the self and the state to their destructive effects. As Russell Kirk wrote, “The worst enemies of enduring freedom for all may be certain folk who demand incessantly more liberty for themselves.” "
“doing as one likes,” which is not true freedom, but what the 18
