Chicago Cops Using State Law to Kill then Charging Innocent People for Murder They Committed:

An investigation into 10 recent Chicago criminal cases unearthed the extraordinary reach of the state’s “felony murder rule,” which is being used to cover up police crime, as well as prosecute and incarcerate the innocent, according to a report.

“Among the ten recent felony murder cases…three stem from police officers firing at fleeing vehicles in apparent violation of the department’s ‘deadly force’ policy, which since February 2015 has forbidden the practice,”according to findings by the Chicago Reader.

The revelation came while investigating the case of Tevin Louis, who was charged and convicted of the murder of his friend, Marquise Sampson, even though Sampson was fatally shot by police on Chicago’s South Side.

My Commentary: What if police just start calling their reckless murders of innocent bystanders and car passengers in their pursuit of suspects “collateral damage”? Will Americans start defending their actions? Or, is this practice only acceptable when the US military uses it as a label for the thousands of dead Iraqis, Afghanis, Pakistanis, Libyans, Yemenis, Somalians, and Syrians they’ve murdered in our name, and using our tax dollarsl? #InnocentLivesMatter

Some Perspective on the Real Problem Effecting America’s Economy

As I scrolled through my Facebook news feed, I discovered the following artwork here, being shared by the page, “Emancipated Human,” and originally posted it to my own wall, along with commentary…

"If regulatory growth froze in 1980, we would today be approximately $4 trillion richer! The Cost of Regulations: If the cost of regulatory accumulations ($4 trillion) were a country, it would have the 4th largest GDP in the world. (That amount is large enough to be the world's 4th largest economy!) GDP, in nominal 2012 dollars (billion USD)"

War to “Stop” War: Why the Obama Doctrine is Ravaging the Middle East:

(Ramzy Baroud) Everyone seems to have a theory on how to obliterate ISIS, or ‘Daesh’. However, two points are rarely raised: one, concerning the origins of the group and the second, on whether there are genuine intentions to defeat it, in the first place.

We must boldly address the first to unravel the enigma behind the rise and growth of ‘Daesh’ – otherwise, how else can the group be dismantled.

We must contend with the second point before engaging in superfluous discussions about the most appropriate war strategy – that if war is, at all, the answer.

Tammy S.: They work their butts off to win and represent our country and they are penalized. That’s a shame. I understand we need taxation. Some things should be exempt just on principle, like Olympic Medals.
