Surely the Garda can step out of line too !!!

Dear Primetime,

I am sending you this email as I have often wondered all down the years why a programme has never been produced investigating the misconduct of our Garda Siochana. As is evident from the Garda Ombudsman's Office many people experience arrogant, bullyish & disrespectful behaviour from some members of the force.

This mistreatment of people can be conducted out of view due to the evidence being recorded on smartphones & other recording devices. Like all strata of Society you have the " Good, the Bad, & the Ugly "!!

Some assignments are questionable also: Safety for the Public or Revenue Gathering Exercise for the Government/ Targets e.g Speeding Fines etc on Motorways or Dual Carriageways.

As a Taxi-Driver, I've witnessed first hand such misconduct from some members of the force & for that reason I have setup a website called www.corruptcops.net . I invite people to submit to the website all video, audio & photographic material of such encounters, which they deem to be undesirable.

Any Questions welcome by return email.

Looking forward to your response on a very important issue.

Rgds
Brian,
Galway City.

RT to host final US presidential third-party debate
Source: RT.com
Libertarian Party candidate Gov. Gary Johnson and the Green Party's Jill Stein will sound off once more before Election Day, with both presidential hopefuls now slated to debate live from RT's Washington, DC studio on November 5.

Tens of thousands around the globe watched earlier this week when broadcasting legend Larry King moderated a debate between the top third-party candidates live from Chicago. As those politicians continue to be shunned by the mainstream media and political establishment alike, though, they remain excluded from presenting their platform to the country on the eve of a historic election. RT aims to make a difference, however, and will host Johnson and Stein to speak their minds on the topics Americans really care about in 2012.

Monsanto's "Roundup" Detected in Human Urine (Recommended)
Source: Mercola.com
Last year, doctors at Sherbrooke University Hospital in Quebec made the disturbing discovery that Bt-toxin from genetically engineered Bt corn in fact accumulates in the human body – contrary to industry assurances. The toxin was identified in 93 percent of pregnant women tested; 80 percent of umbilical blood in their babies; and 67 percent of non-pregnant women.

The study blew a giant hole in safety claims over genetically engineered Bt crops.

Now, results from a German study shows that people who have no direct contact with agriculture have significant concentrations of glyphosate in their urine. It's becoming quite apparent that genetically engineered crops are a source of multiple toxins, in addition to having been found to contain far lower levels of nutrients. So much for saving the world from starvation.

New Report Shreds Claims that GE Crops Reduce Pesticide Use

--In 2009, President Obama appointed former Monsanto VP for Public Policy, Michael Taylor, as a senior adviser for the FDA, turning a deaf ear to the loud protests from consumer groups.

He also oversees strategy for food safety, and planning new food safety legislation.

Getting Fit By the Age of 50 Helps Prevent Disease in Your "Golden Years"
Source: Mercola.com
Most people intuitively know that the lifestyle choices they make today impact their future health. But this rather vague connection has now been quantified by science.

A new study shows your lifestyle choices in middle age have a direct impact on how you'll spend your Golden Years. If you're fit at 50, you're much more likely to be healthy into your 70s and 80s.

Never before has it been so readily apparent how important it is to be fit by mid life!

Americans are living longer but not healthier lives. Although life expectancy in the U.S. is now above 78, which is up from 74 in 1980, rates of a number of chronic diseases, like diabetes, cancer and heart disease have steadily risen, and these diseases are appearing earlier in life.

Health Benefits of Oxidative Medicine

--If you're experiencing joint pain, Lyme disease or an infection, drugs are probably the go-to treatment recommended by your physician. This is, unfortunately, the way the medical system is set up – to promote drugs and surgery first and foremost, even when safer, more natural alternatives exist. When asked why he thinks oxidative medicine isn't adopted more widely,

Dr. Rowen said:

"One of the reasons why is because these drugs are extraordinarily, widely promoted. If you take the case of any of the NSAIDs or non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs, I tell my patients, 'You can reduce your pain by taking the drug today and destroy your cartilage tomorrow,' because one of the mechanisms by which they act is reducing the production of cartilage. So they're actually inducing long-term arthritis by reducing your pain forcibly today.

But the drug industry is a huge industry. Everywhere you turn on television... [and] you see these commercials for petrochemical pharmaceuticals.

--The reason why you don't see things like ozone out there taking over things is mainly because of what I call the most corrupt industry in the world. That gets back to the politics, where if you can't make a better product, how do you keep your product out there? You can't do it in a free market. You have to buy the government, so that you can purchase a monopoly on what you have and keep out everything else. That's what we have in this country today.

We have the best disease maintenance system money can buy. It's not a health system. It's a disease maintenance system."

Tragedy and Hope Made Easy - Chapter One
Source: TragedyAndHope.INFO
--Perhaps most disturbing to those who still believe in things like representative government, Quigley reveals that real power operates behind the scenes, in secrecy, and with little to fear from so-called elections. We learn that conspiracies, secret societies, and small, powerful "networks" of individuals are not only real; they're extremely effective at creating or destroying entire nations and shaping the world as a whole.

These disturbing truths contradict nearly everything we've been taught to believe about our system of government and social organization. As such, many people will simply dismiss them out of hand. "Only wild-eyed conspiracy theorists believe such nonsense," they will say. And the social engineers, who encourage public ignorance and shape public opinion, will assure them that they're right. But there is one problem: Carroll Quigley was no wild-eyed conspiracy theorist.

Rather, Quigley was a prominent historian who specialized in studying the evolution of civilizations as well as secret societies. He studied history at Harvard University where he earned his Bachelor's, Master's, and PhD degrees. He taught at Princeton University, Harvard University, and then at the School of Foreign Service at Georgetown University. He worked as an advisor to the U.S. Defense Department, the U.S. Navy, and the Smithsonian Institution.[2]

The So-Called War on Drugs
Source: TheNewAmerican.com
Federal authorities in the United States have been quietly supporting certain Mexican criminal empires, especially the Sinaloa drug cartel, in a bid to solidify the syndicates' reign as dominant powerbrokers in particular territories, according to leaked e-mails from a U.S.-based Mexican diplomat to the private intelligence firm Stratfor. If cartel chiefs cooperate with authorities, "governments will allow controlled drug trades," the diplomatic source wrote.

--Also troubling were Stratfor documents detailing "surgical strikes" by Mexican special-operations troops — backed by U.S. taxpayer money and the Obama administration — which analysts equated with "death squads." Essentially, then, Mexican troops have gone on a killing spree taking out certain troublesome "cells," multiple sources, including those working for Stratfor, suggested. 

Another bombshell uncovered in the leaked e-mails indicated that the U.S. federal government had deliberately allowed cartel hit men to murder people inside the United States if they agreed to offer their services to Washington. "Regarding ICE [U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement] screwing up informants: They [ICE] were handling big hit men from Juarez and letting them kill in the U.S.," the same federal law enforcement supervisor wrote in an e-mail.

Herbicide Use In GMO Crops Has Actually Increased
Source: PreventDisease.com
The promise by Monsanto and producers of genetically modified crops was that farmers could use less chemicals and produce a greater yield. That's about as true as honesty in politics. A study published this week by Washington State University research professor Charles Benbrook finds that the use of herbicides in the production of three genetically modified herbicide-tolerant crops -- cotton, soybeans and corn -- has actually increased. 

This counterintuitive finding is based on an exhaustive analysis of publicly available data from the U.S. Department of Agriculture's National Agriculture Statistics Service. Benbrook's analysis is the first peer-reviewed, published estimate of the impacts of genetically engineered (GE) herbicide-resistant (HT) crops on pesticide use.

It is confirming earlier US government data showing that in the US, GM crops have produced an overall increase, not decrease, in pesticide use compared to conventional crops. Not only that promises of greater yields are also unfounded.

GM crops have not increased the yield potential of any commercialised crops. In fact, studies show that the most widely grown GM crop, GM soya, has suffered reduced yields.

Ed Griffin on Quick Fixes, the Looming Great War and Loss of Elite Moral Authority
Source: TheDailyBell.com
Daily Bell: Let's jump right in. Are we seeing significant price inflation now?

G. Edward Griffin: It depends on how you define significant, I suppose. I think it's significant. My personal feeling is the price index is greatly distorted. They keep fiddling with the formula to make it look as good as possible but real inflation, at least here in the States, in terms of the major components of what people buy to live day to day, such as groceries, gasoline and clothing, my feeling is that inflation is already at the double digits. I think it's ten percent if not more. That I think is significant but then again it's nothing compared to what I think we are going to see.

It seems to me that probably within the next two years we will be experiencing 15, 20, 25, 30 percent and so forth. It may be much higher because I have a feeling there is a certain tipping point coming when people finally realize – and they always do – in any country where the currency is grinding down. There comes to be a point, like in Russia or in Germany, for example, when inflation was modest and then within a period of a few weeks inflation was way, way out of proportion. It was a psychological factor that made the difference. Nothing else changed except the awareness level that the money was no good. So I kind of think we are going to see similar psychological influence like that here and probably we will catch up with all the inflation that should have been in the market very quickly.

Daily Bell: Let's jump right in. Are we seeing significant price inflation now?

G. Edward Griffin: It depends on how you define significant, I suppose. I think it's significant. My personal feeling is the price index is greatly distorted. They keep fiddling with the formula to make it look as good as possible but real inflation, at least here in the States, in terms of the major components of what people buy to live day to day, such as groceries, gasoline and clothing, my feeling is that inflation is already at the double digits. I think it's ten percent if not more. That I think is significant but then again it's nothing compared to what I think we are going to see.

It seems to me that probably within the next two years we will be experiencing 15, 20, 25, 30 percent and so forth. It may be much higher because I have a feeling there is a certain tipping point coming when people finally realize – and they always do – in any country where the currency is grinding down. There comes to be a point, like in Russia or in Germany, for example, when inflation was modest and then within a period of a few weeks inflation was way, way out of proportion. It was a psychological factor that made the difference. Nothing else changed except the awareness level that the money was no good. So I kind of think we are going to see similar psychological influence like that here and probably we will catch up with all the inflation that should have been in the market very quickly.

GMO Labeling - Stop The Fraud
Source: StopTheLie.com
--The biotech industry wants the benefits of collecting revenue on its GMO patents, but it also wants to enjoy the benefits of "trust" associated with natural products that have been consumed safely for many thousands of years. They know that consumers will avoid their product if it says "GMO" on it, so their policy is to hide that distinction from consumers.

The Oregon Fluoride Fight Heats Up
Source: Mercola.com
--The undemocratic process adopted by the council received nationwide media coverage, and for good reason. So far, citizens have already voted 'no' on water fluoridation for Portland on three separate occasions, clearly demonstrating the public will on this subject. This time, more than 275 residents testified at the public hearing, according to The New York Times, with more than 60 percent of them speaking out against the practice. The pro-fluoride lobby were unfairly given a full hour to present their case before the council, while those in opposition were given no time.

In the end, on September 12, the council stuck to their announced game plan and approved the plan to add fluoride to Portland's water supplies by March 2014, despite the strong opposition from residents, who asked for a referendum. Their message: "Public Water, Public Vote." According to The Huffington Post,2 the opposition will start collecting signatures in an effort to force a referendum.

"There is no question that we are going to need a lot of financial and volunteer support to make this happen, but we are seeing a major backlash to how the City Council has handled this," said Kim Kaminski, executive director of Oregon Citizens for Safe Drinking Water.3

While it can certainly be frustrating, there's no doubt we need to open the channels of communication on the issue of water fluoridation. The argument that water fluoridation has been done for over five decades and doesn't appear to have had a detrimental impact on health simply isn't not good enough... There's just too much evidence to the contrary. For example, 34 different studies4 support the contention that water fluoridation lowers IQ in children.

The Other Side of the "Citizens United" Argument
Source: DownsizeDC.org
--The Ruling Class calls them campaign finance laws. But they're really incumbent protection rules. These rules silence dissent and cripple challengers.

So let's do this . . .

*Never call them campaign finance laws.
*Always call them Incumbent Protection Rules.

--The Regime Media Cartel (imprecisely known as the mainstream media) gets to influence politics by . . .raising and spending unlimited dollars, from unlimited sources, with no public reporting requirements...So why can't you?

--Shouldn't you and your friends be able to join together to pool your resources to operate a "press" to express political opinions? Even if that "press" is called something likeDownsizeDC.org?

We think the answer is obvious and resounding. YES!

But the politicians and the Regime Media both disagree, because they want to silence you!

--They both want to monopolize political expression, because that will allow them to monopolize THOUGHT and POWER.
