Good Example of being Russian…


This morning while I was sipping that wonderful cup of coffee and contemplating another cup on this cold and blowy snowy/rainy day. Sveta is at the dentist and that is in the back of my mind as I am having some thinking’s…

Once again that Russian smile comes to mind and it was brought about when I was walking Boza the other day and I saw a couple walking along talking and laughing and heaven forbid smiling…

According to the Western world and the new media, Russians have some sort of illness that makes them never smile. In fact I have seen a new article a week on the subject and sometimes two or three pop up. This is on the main news sites and not some blogger that has nothing better to do… 🙂

This couple was happy and you could tell that they enjoyed each others company very much. Now in Russia people who are close to each other smile and share their feelings. But if you are just someone who they do not know or just see once in awhile, smiles are not forthcoming. Smiles are special and reserved for special…

It was all brought forth full force as I watched some videos from America. The people on the videos were forced smiles and happiness. It was all fake and unbecoming to reality…

That then brought back memories of working in the US and everyday, I had to remind my employees that a happy face is a productive face and when you answer the phone say hello with joy…

I like the Russians, they do not understand false emotions and are confused by those emotions…

A smile is one of the most important things in the world and to toss them around like last weeks leftovers is a mistake. A smile has meaning and should have the power behind that meaning…

This is from someone that grew up with everyone telling him, “SMILE KYLE!” and laughing as they ran away to play… 🙁

I smile when it means something and I smile at Sveta, because she means something to me, just like she smiles back. But the local store personnel gets no smiles and they do not expect a smile/nor give a smile either…

As Sveta would say, “That is just right!”

PS: I guess the fact that Russians do not smile as much as Americans is important (?) and the fact that Russia has a thousand times more important things that the Western media should write about is really the most important issue…

Coffee and the Winds are Changing from that Russian Window…


I hope you are watching and thinking about what has been happening lately. No I am not talking about watching just the Western Press, I am talking about really looking around and checking out what the world is doing…

A whole bunch is happening…

While you are “Drinking the Kool–Aid” and dancing to their (government) tune and watching the stars on TV and not in the sky! Things are changing and changing fast…

You should concentrate on the Eastern half of the world and that is really hard for you to do, because the West is crumbling as we keep the blindfolds on, so we will not see it happen. Those blindfolds also keep us from seeing what is really happening in the world…

The winds are changing and actually starting to blow much harder. I am amazed at the extent that Russia and China have excused themselves from reliance upon the Western World financially. In a few more years the reliance will be very noticeable, as both countries have shifted their priorities to the East…

Want a silent tidbit?

“In 2006, the U.S. was the larger trading partner for 127 countries, while China was the larger trading partner for 70, AP reported. By last year 2011, the two had traded places: 124 countries for China, 76 for the U.S…” Here is one of few links… >>>

There are thousands of such tidbits and you have to look, because the main stream news just is not allowed to print it and or does not want to print it. I guess you would get upset to know that things are a lot worse then you understand…

Time to crawl back into your hole you live in! I hear that Lindsay Lohan is being bad again and that “fiscal cliff” is going to take your world and destroy it…

Snowy, Cold and Messing Around in Russia: Galaxy Note with Stock Galaxy Note 2 Jelly Bean on it…


Update on my Galaxy Note…

Read this article first: Source >>>

Now lets talk about what is happening now on my Galaxy Note. So join me while I sip a cup of coffee and try to explain what I have done to the phone…

Today I saw that the source code for the Galaxy Note 2 was leaked around the middle of October sometime and that got me thinking. After a few cups of coffee and downloading the source code. I decided to do a little bit of work to it and see if I could port it over to my Galaxy Note…

Okay now I realized that Note 2 has a whole bunch more muscles than Note 1, but I also knew that I can overclock my Note 1 and I know a slew of tricks to speed her up and I figured that she could handle it…

Well she does and it puts a custom Rom to shame. That is not easy to do because most stock firmware has huge limitations on workability and speed, without tweaking it to the point of non workability…

It was fairly easy to port over, but you have to have some knowledge about working with an “Android Rom” and I am not getting into how to do it. I have decided that this is my pleasure and fun, but if someone would want something done to their phone I would take that in consideration and be glad to update the phone physically in my home. That means you would have to ship it to me and allow lots of time for the process to be done. I am not in business, but I would help, for the right price…

I live in Russia by the way… 🙂

The rom I downloaded has all the bells and whistles, plus I was able to install binary for root and busybox right into the installation process. It just does not get any better than that…

Now Samsung Update got a little nasty and threatened me with the “You have unauthorized software installed so you will get no more updates!” attitude and so I turned that off right away. Oh Well! Easy come easy go, I say…

I had already updated to the leaked Galaxy Note stock Jelly Bean rom software, but that was just basically like the Gingerbread and ICS and was made for the Note. It was lacking in the latest and greatest from the Note 2. Like the new multi-window software for Note 2. Now that is really cool and allows a wonderful opportunity to be able to show you how the Note can multitask with the best of them…

So I am now getting ready to write on one of my books that I have been writing and then contemplate some more on the Note 1. It had a rough start and almost became a paperweight, but now that I have isolated and removed the brickbugged section of the eMMC card. (I lost 100mb of space, by the way!) So that is not noticeable in the long term scheme of things…

I hear that Samsung will finally push out an update of Jelly Bean 4.1.2 on the Galaxy Note, but that is still Note 1 specific and I suspect that it will be missing all the real charm of the Note 2 software. That makes sense because why make the Note 1 as fancy as Note 2. Then no one would want to buy the New Note 2…

It is a shame that such a strong running phone has to be plagued by software and hardware issues that degrade the full potential of the device…

But I am seeing how the Note grows on people and once you have become a big screen user and gotten a taste for the size, going back to a smaller phone just seems wrong. My poor 4 inch screened Huawei Honor looks kinda sad in comparison. The screen on my Galaxy Note is bigger than the whole Huawei phone… 🙂

Have a nice day…

PS: I have to mention for those that run out and try to flash a Note 2 rom on a Note 1. Don’t do it, the rom has to be modified to flash properly on a Note 1. It is made for a Note 2 and that is that. You will brick your phone if you flash a stock rom from another model of phone to a different model of phone. If you do not know what I am talking about use Google and find out what custom rom, custom kernel and recovery image means…

Pakistan – Russia Geopolitics by Nadir Mir…


Pakistan – Russia Geopolitics: by Nadir Mir

Author of the book “Gwadar on the Global Chessboard”

His Blog: Pakistan and Geopolitics

The author is a retired Brigadier of the Pakistan Army.

Pakistan – Russian amity is natural. It was forsaken at the altar of the Cold War. America’s quest for Soviet Union’s containment and Pakistan’ need of support against bellicose India resulted in the US – Pakistan alliance. Today the world has changed geopolitically, in Pakistan’s favour. The time has come for Pakistan – Russian friendship to be solidified. Pakistan’s COAS visit to Russia was timely and historic. Even earlier Pakistan Air Chief had already visited Russia.

Pakistan’s Geopolitics has often been misunderstood. The time to remedy that has also arrived. In my book ‘Gwadar on the Global Chessboard’ I have already projected Pakistan’s identity. Pakistan is a multiregional state and not only South Asian. South Asia is Pakistan’s Eastern linkage that is Punjab – Sindh Provinces. Khyber Pakhtoonkhwa is the link to Afghanistan and Central Asia while Kashmir, Northern Areas to China and Central Asia. Baluchistan is linked to Iran, Turkey, Gulf – Saudi Peninsula and Western Asian affinity.

Pakistan’s location is globally pivotal. It is located at the cross roads of the historical empires. It is Geo economically a bridge state and Geo strategically the interposing state between multi regions. A friendly Pakistan is a blessing and a hostile Pakistan is a disaster for any world power with interests in these regions.

To ignore Pakistan’s Geo strategic location, its youth bulge demography soaring towards 200 millions and its formidable military – nuclear forces is an act of imprudence. The Americans were the first, Chinese the second and now Russians also appreciate Pakistan’s Geopolitical merits. The Indian propaganda of ‘Shining India’ is fast eroding. The most critical Geopolitical State Actor in these regions is called Pakistan.

Afghanistan

US – NATO forces or bulk will be withdrawing from Afghanistan. Stability in Afghanistan needs the principal player Pakistan on board. Left over US forces besides interests will be dependent on Russian and Pakistan’s logistic supply routes. Pakistani – Russian coordination will help bring peace in Afghanistan. The Chinese are increasing their investments and stakes in Afghanistan. Instability needs to be reduced in Afghanistan and militancy blocked from spreading into Central Asia. Geo economic and Geo strategic interests of Russia and Pakistan coincide. Energy should travel southwards towards Pakistan and drugs stopped from travelling northwards into Russia. Secondly left over US – NATO military presence in Afghanistan should suit neither Moscow, nor Beijing or Islamabad and certainly not Tehran for that matter. Delhi which prays for US military longevity in Kabul is at odds with Pakistan, Russia, China and Iran on that score. Simply because even a small foreign military presence in Kabul will keep Afghanistan on the path of war rather than peace.

Gwadar and Energy – Trade, Transit Grid

The Chinese are arriving in Gwadar. The Russians are also keen to join. For centuries Russians coveted these warm waters. From my book ‘Gwadar on the Global Chessboard’ I quote,: “the quest for warm waters is a coveted aim since Czarist times. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . Russia with its firm anchor in Gwadar can support the Asian hinter land development.”   This can join Southern Russia to the Arabian Sea.

From the Baltic Sea near Saint Petersburg, to Archangel in the North, Vladivostok in the East to the hemmed in Black Sea ports, the Russians need warm waters. Gwadar Deep Sea warm water port could fulfill an old Russian dream. In time Russian Gazprom will join the energy grid of Asia at Pakistan’s Gwadar. Russia through Central Asian states can also use Gwadar for trade and transit. Gwadar will bind Pakistan, China, Russia and Central Asian states. Geo economic interests of these state actors increasingly coincide with the Geo strategic interests.

Gwadar and Central Asia / Russia / China

(Map from the book by author, ‘Gwadar on the Global Chessboard’)

A Russian – Pakistan friendship pact could prove to the world that both states stand for peace in the world. They seek prosperity for their people, share common values of equality for all nations, freedom for the people, from the Slavic Heartland to Indus River. Both abhor violence; can jointly fight terrorism, separatism, drugs and other evils.

Russia under President Putin’s leadership is striving for Global Peace. Pakistan has suffered for eleven years due to the war in Afghanistan. Now the people of Pakistan ardently seek an end to this long and pointless war. Russia and Pakistan can jointly facilitate an American Exit Strategy from Afghanistan. In this respect an understanding among Russia, Pakistan, USA and China can help achieve peace in Afghanistan. This will radiate peaceful waves from the epi center of Afghanistan. Russia and Pakistan can also help create consensus in the entire Central Asian and West Asian regions for peace and Geo economic bonding.

Pakistan – Russian Geopolitical understanding is not directed against anyone. Pakistan can maintain its old friendship with USA and strategic partnership with China while Russia has its traditional relations with India. Still new friendship between Pakistan and Russia will not only benefit both but also contribute to peace and prosperity in the world.

Snow Snow Snow and By Golly Some More Snow in Our Part of Russia…


So that cup of coffee is really good today as I look out the window into Russia. The snow is falling so hard that I can not see the buildings around the complex. So an article on snow seemed good…

Sveta made a big mistake the other day! It is the same mistake that I usually make and it has to do with the weather. I talk about the weather and it does the opposite that I say…

A few days ago Sveta said something like, “This is not Winter, there is NO Snow! Winter means Snow!”

I was thinking as she said it that we are in trouble, because you never gripe about a good thing and no snow with very little moisture is a good thing at times. In fact it was the best start to Winter I have seen here in Russia. No mud and no snow up to your knees…

Oops – Guess what? Father Frost heard Sveta and woke up. The snow is so deep in the last few days that I lost Boza in the snow drifts. I found Boza with this strange look on his face as only his head stuck out at one point and that head was covered in snow also. He tried to bound like a deer through the snow and ran into the end of his 5 meter leash, as he fell sideways into a drift. I then found myself trying to walk our usual path and at one point it was up to my knees. Sorry, I can’t bound like a deer anymore, so I let Boza off the leash to play. While I dredged through the drifts…

Winter is here and Father Frost reminded everyone why he rules Russia!

SNOW!

Today Lets Remember What We Did To Libya: We (USA) are Stupid and Immoral…


When Muhammad bin Halim stepped out of his front door in Benghazi one September morning, he waved at his neighbor before walking toward his candy-apple-red Hyundai. When the head of the financial-crimes unit in the Libyan Interior Ministry opened the door, a bomb exploded, sending him to the ground and showering him with debris. Luckily, he was uninjured; the same is not true for many of his colleagues.

A wave of assassinations targeting security officials has become the latest setback for a country still reeling from a Sept. 11 attack on the U.S. consulate in Benghazi that left four Americans dead. Eight months of a revolutionary war in 2011 decimated Libya’s already deeply flawed civic institutions. With no security organizations to ensure order and an ineffective justice system unable to prosecute suspects, Libyans fear their country is slowly crumbling around them.

This is nice of the Western Media to start (kinda – in a way) acknowledging that we @$%# UP in Libya and it was an intentional @$%# UP…

But we still lay the blame on everyone but U.S. – I mean us… 🙂

The Raptor’s Eye in Washington, DC: General Petraeus, JIEDDO and Auntie’s Pervert* by John Stanton…


The United States of America remains the preeminent global empire very much by design. Its expansion was not by accident. In fact, it was a necessity. Indeed, America’s instruments of national power–diplomatic, intelligence, military, economic, financial, law enforcement, information and people–remain unmatched in their productive capacity, global reach and destructive power. There is no nation-state (not even the lauded BRIC group) that has so many instruments of national power within its quiver.

But even with all its mighty power, the United States is tangled in a web of its own design, with little room for escape. America’s prosperity and its way-of-life, depends vitally on global domination, not only in the ethereal marketplace or cyberspace, but particularly of critical land, air and sea routes (choke points).

The center of gravity in the tangled webbing is Washington, DC, the epicenter of political, sexual and egocentric intrigue and the birthplace of projects like the “Surge” in Afghanistan and Iraq, “MISO” (military information support operations), and a host of other tinker-toy concepts and initiatives, many of which have cost nearly 100,000 American lives killed or maimed in action and an equally horrific toll in Iraq and Afghanistan that also includes millions of displaced civilians.

Palace intrigues abound in the Capitol of the American Empire, of course. The latest being the sex life of CIA Director David Petraeus. Speculation over Petraeus’ approval of rogue operations in Libya and elsewhere around the globe runs high as of this writing. Many camps in Washington, DC, are cheering at the Princeton and West Point graduate’s forced resignation from the CIA. None more than those who cautioned against drinking Petraeus’ blinding elixir. Such is life in the empire’s capitol.  It is all part of the grand theater of power politics.

The Petraeus matter is symptomatic of a debilitated US Department of Defense Inspector General’s office. It is largely compromised according to a military insider.

“The biggest reason why stuff like the General Petraeus scandal happens is because the Inspector General’s Office (IG) continues to discount or ignore complaints from subordinates, until they explode in their faces. There is no way Paula Broadwell could have jumped on a plane and appeared in Afghanistan, without someone asking questions, somewhere. Instead of going after General David Petraeus, or Paula Broadwell, the military would save a lot of time and trouble taking a look at the people who allegedly approved Paula’s access to classified information, and the people responsible for safeguarding that access. I guarantee you that you will find someone who raised questions, who was harassed, intimidated, or removed from their position. The IG complaint process is supposed to provide a safety net for people who come forward with allegations of misconduct. This system appears to have fallen apart, and IG offices appear to be either complicit or disinterested in pursuing allegations of suspicious conduct by senior officers and NCO’s.

Senior officers like Petraeus and Brigadier General Sinclair (accused of alleged sexual misconduct) do not conduct themselves in such a manner unless they have been convinced by the people around them that they have nothing to fear, or that an environment of fear and intimidation was so pervasive, that everyone knew these things were going on, and some may have even complained, but that’s as far as it went.”

That the American system can maintain its empire amidst the intellectual and physical shenanigans of its leaders and institutions is astonishing and quite marvelous in its own way.  Who needs Broadway or Hollywood? They are no match for the tragicomedy, theater and “reality television” of Washington, DC, the Capitol of the American Empire.

It was not to New York City, Boston or Baltimore that Wall Street financiers and banking houses ran to in 2008 when they screwed up. It was a sprint to Washington, DC that they made in search of cash to salvage their bank accounts first, and then the American economy, second. This provided a fine lesson for those who deride the citizens and institutions of the National Capitol Region: the action is here DC, not outside the Beltway.

Example of Media Exaltation of a Product…


Image representing Android as depicted in Crun...

Crunchbase

As you know, if you follow my writings, that I am sort of a tinkerer in android phones and other computer items. This morning while drinking that wonderful cup of coffee and doing my morning thinking’s, as I always try to do. I have been centering my thoughts around a particular Samsung phone that Sveta bought me. A Samsung Galaxy Note. This is the Galaxy Note with Android Ginger Bread, 1 GB Ram and a dual core 1.4 GHz  processor…

It is not the latest and greatest as now there is a Galaxy Note 2, but I liked the older version and it seemed to have more opportunities available for it due to its age and popularity…

Having found a Grey Market* version of the phone at a vastly reduced price…

Grey Market – “Also known as parallel market,is the trade of a commodity through distribution channels which, while legal, are unofficial, unauthorized, or unintended by the original manufacturer. The term gray economy, however, refers to workers being paid under the table, without paying income taxes or contributing to such public services as Social Security and Medicare. It is sometimes referred to as the underground economy or “hidden economy.”

Sveta and I purchased the phone…

That is when the facade started to fall apart…

The phone was the real McCoy and was a 100% Samsung and that is part of the problem. I think I would have been better off with one of the India/China perfect clone phones at half the cost…

The phone had shipped out of the German markets and was set up just fine for Russia as we are all considered Europe, most of the time. They had installed Ice Cream Sandwich on the phone as the latest update to android and that upset me a little bit. I wanted the phone with Ginger Bread, as that is the easiest way to customize the phone. I am not a stock android guy and when I get a android phone it has to be rooted and ROM’ed. The only way to get the full potential is to take control of the phone…

I was excited about this phone, because it was touted as the greatest thing since Apple Pie, Baseball and Chevrolet’s. The mainstream media can not say enough about this phone and how it was the latest and greatest in its day. Heaven forbid how wonderful the newest version (Note 2) is…

In fact the good about this phone in the media completely overwelms people looking for information and finding the truth is not easy unless you scourer the forums, I use forums for fixing things and that is when I found out about the Galaxy Brick Bug! As I sat and looked at a bricked Samsung Galaxy Note…

If you own a Samsung Galaxy S II or the Galaxy Note and are a regular member of the xda-developers forum, you may already be aware of a bug with some of these devices where erasing the EMMC could hard brick your phone.

This problem would surface if the user tried to flash a custom ROM or kernel that used MMC_CAP_ERASE. Thankfully, developer Chainfire came up with an app that would let you know if your device was shipped with a faulty eMMC.

Apparently, this issue has existed for a long time now and even though it was noticed a couple of months ago and was much talked about in the developer community Samsung did not respond to it, until now.

According to user Daniel Hillenbrand on Google+, Samsung has said that “Patches will be out in form of new official ROMs and also sourcecode releases after testing, which might take some time.”

Hmm! Okay well that sums up trash to me and I just happen to have one of these particular phones. Just think if I had a clone, it would never have been an issue. The clones have Chinese android installed and do not have the problems…

Now before we start mouthing about a grey phone and other such things as why root, why flash roms and why why why? I will pass on that this issue is a well known issue and it affects even the phones that are just upgraded through Samsung normal upgrade procedures. That is how the phone acquired the issue to start with, it was flashed with a Samsung ICS upgrade. I will also tell you that if an android phone can not be treated as another computer, than why have it? It either plays my way or no way and in the trash it will go. With that said, lets explore the issues…

Number one fault was Samsung, they have developed and built a phone with major flaws and they knew about it from the beginning. They knew all along that their phone was trash…

Number two thing that happened, the in between people decided to flash the phone with ICS and re-sticker the box as never opened. That set the stage for the EMMC Bug to rear its head. Ginger Bread is safe…

Number three I got very sick and was running a 41+ C degree fever and was trying to work on my phone. Stupid huh?

So it was a combination of several things and anyone of the issues could have been changed to have made things better…

But regardless I bricked the phone and bricked it good. All I had left was the ability to get into download mode. I was too sick to do anything but make it worse and worse I made it. I am good about that and looks like I will never change, You know – “teaching old dogs new tricks” sorta things…

That is when I found out about Svet’s son (Misha) and his wonderful abilities with android operating systems and bricked phones. Misha took the phone and with Svet’s help they un-bricked my phone and it came back to me with original Ginger Bread on it…

I still had a very high temperature (over 40 C) and just played with it for a few days. I also did a whole bunch of studying about this Brick Bug issue. I also found the Samsung update and several other goodies to play with, for when I felt better…

To make a long story short, Misha set the ground work and saved my phone. He got it going again and did what everyone says is the only way to save it and that is to repartition the phone and with that you loose a whole bunch of your internal rom sd card. He did what I could not and from there I took it with my expertise and have recovered all lost sd rom and applied a custom rom and kernel. With a few days of tweaking, the phone rocks and rolls! It is what it should have been from the beginning. I have all aspects of the Samsung software and all the stability of a brick proof rom and kernel…

In fact the phone is running android Jelly Bean from a Galaxy 3 and has an overclock kernel that allows it to run 200 GHz faster than stock. It is smooth, slick and just plain my favorite phone. It looks to be a long time before I find a better phone for the money…

The big thing that I am upset about is that Samsung knew about this issue and refused for a long time to even acknowledge the fact. My studies have pin pointed it as to a hardware and software flaw. They continued to make these phones with these issues and never corrected the problem, They knew full well that they are reputed as an easy to work with phone and unlocked boot loader on top of it all…

Instead of trying to fix it, they went on a huge coverup campaign and spent millions to saturate the market with the selling points of the phone and never once gave what was needed and that would be a fix to solve the issue of the Brick Bug and make millions of happy rom flashers, even happier. I truly believe the phone would have sold millions more if they had played the game correct and not tried to hide the truth…

Now that I have the phone running Jelly Bean and a safe kernel, many thanks to Misha and Sveta, It is able to reach its potential…

Why didn’t Samsung just do what is right in the first place? I will never buy another Samsung after it took three people and three weeks to get the phone under control. Now I know why people are sending the phones back to Samsung in record amounts to get them re mothered boarded after they do a normal update and brick the phone…

PS: I will tell you with all honesty: “Korean Samsung does not hold a candle to the Chinese Huawei and my Huawei has been flashed hundreds of times, with nary an issue!” I have to now leave the Samsung Galaxy Note alone or chance bricking it again, which I have done already and un-bricked it myself – again!” The Galaxy Note looks good and tough on the outside, but is a wimp and weak, on the inside…

My Suggestion: Don’t buy a Samsung Galaxy Note…

New Russian Heart valve Implanted for the first time: world’s best heart valve…


Heart surgeons have performed the first-ever implantation of the artificial heart valve, which was developed in Russia. The valve was produced in the Moscow-based Bakulev’s Center of Cardiac Surgery in cooperation with a company from Penza. The valve differs from all of its predecessors for better blood pass-ability. For the time being, the Russian, full-flow valve is considered the best in the world.

“The problem of mechanical prostheses, which make up 85 percent of the total amount of practice, is that they create a so-called gradient – an obstacle for the heart to release blood,” said Leo Bokeria, the Director of Bakulev’s Scientific Center of Cardiovascular Surgery, NTV reports. The folds of the valve would partly hinder the blood flow even in the open position. If the heart is small, the heart of a child, for example, it would become an irresistible side effect.

The surgery to install the valve was performed by a team of cardiac surgeons under the leadership of academician Leo Bokeria on a 63-year-old female patient, a resident of the Kaluga region, says diver-sant.ru. The patient was diagnosed with “aortic heart defect” that caused numerous complications. With this pathology, the aortic hiatus does not close completely, as is necessary for the proper work of the heart, and during diastole, the reverse flow of blood from the aorta into the left ventricle occurs.

The patient is doing well and each year, about 125,000 Russians are in need of such an operation. In addition, this valve is ideal for child surgeries…

Cuba, Venezuela, Russia and China now more free than America in notable ways…


“(NaturalNews) In reviewing all the breaking news over the last few months and looking for the “big picture” of where America is headed, one pattern has emerged with striking regularity: America has quietly become less free in many ways than nations like Cuba, China and even Venezuela.

This is especially true in California, where “justice” has become a joke, and the power of the state is unleashed in personal vendettas against innocent citizens who have done absolutely nothing wrong other than refuse to bow down to state-run tyranny.

In California, the most freedom-crushing region of America, a man was recently thrown in jail for four days for photographing police. Photographing or video recording police is not a crime if done in a manner that does not directly impede their actions. But California police simply don’t “like” being photographed, so they throw people in jail, without charge, and let them rot in California’s third-world prisons for a few days as a form of retaliation.

In another case, California’s raw milk man James Stewart has just been released from jail after being forced to sign a plea deal with L.A. County which accused him of the heinous crime of distributing unpasteurized milk. His punishment? Nearly four months in jail, being treated as a terrorist and denied nutrition to the point where he emerged looking like a Nazi war camp prisoner. The state then slapped on two felony charges, five years of probation, and a $300,000+ fine that the man has no way to pay because California raided his business at gunpoint, stole all his cash and then destroyed all the inventory of his business, including over $50,000 in fresh food.”
