101 killed as gunmen rampage in India city

MUMBAI, India (AP) - A trickle of bodies and hostages emerged from a luxury hotel Thursday as Indian commandoes tried to free people trapped by suspected Muslim militants who attacked at least 10 targets in India’s financial capital of Mumbai, killing 101 people.

More than 300 were also wounded in the highly coordinated attacks Wednesday night by bands of gunmen who invaded two five star hotels, a popular restaurant, a crowded train station, a Jewish center and at least five other sites, armed with assault rifles, hand grenades and explosives.

A previously unknown Islamic militant group claimed responsibility for the carnage, the latest in a series of nationwide terror attacks over the past three years that have dented India’s image as an industrious nation galloping toward prosperity.

Among the dead were at least one Australian, a Japanese and a British national, said Pradeep Indulkar, a senior government official of Maharashtra state, whose capital is Mumbai. The Italian Foreign Ministry in Rome said an Italian was also killed.

Indulkar said 101 people were killed and 314 injured. Officials said eight militants were also killed.

It’s going to happen here too folks, right here on U.S. soil, it has been nothing less than a miracle that it hasn’t already, and we would be foolish to NOT think it can’t, or won’t happen here.

If the Obama administration tries to throw some *gun control* BS at us, saying that ‘stricter gun laws will stop things like this from happening here’, or that ‘if Americans give up their guns this type of thing won’t happen to us’, don’t fall for it, it’s a lie. The Dems know it’s a lie, the Libbers even know it’s a lie, but they would be happy to give up our only real personal protection and just *roll over* if that’s what they are told they must do to achieve world peace!

It IS coming, some of us have been fervently blogging about it, some have been preaching it for a long time now, domestic terror, acts of terror committed right here, on our homes, in our homeland, is a realistic possibility. The players are already in place, our long time wide open borders, and lax immigration enforcement, have given them all the opportunity that is needed to get in place and prepare.

If you doubt that, think about this, if the drug runners can sneak drugs across the border, what stops terrorists from sneaking assault rifles, grenades and other explosive ordinance into the USA?? Our *totally secure* border maybe??

Think about it folks, never let it scare you, but never let it be too far from your thoughts. Use caution and prepare for the attacks that will happen, right here in America. I do not think it’ll be passenger jets into buildings this time, but instead, I believe we’ll face attacks just like the Indians are presently dealing with.

I know that this is a heavy post for Thanksgiving Day, but we can NEVER give in and we must NEVER let our guard down. The best to ALL of you, and enjoy your Thanksgiving with your loved ones! I’ll be back sometime Sunday afternoon.

Happy Thanksgiving to ALL!!

U.N. Urged to Take Action Against Killer Asteroids

U.N. Urged to Take Action Against Killer Asteroids

VIENNA, Austria — It is disaster planning on a galactic scale: Space experts want to come up with a contingency plan on what to do in case a killer asteroid collides with Earth.

The experts, including former American astronaut Rusty Schweickart, told U.N. officials Tuesday that the international community needs a plan to counter so-called Near Earth Objects in advance of the potential catastrophe.

Deflecting asteroids — or at least evacuating people in areas where they might strike — could save millions of lives.

“This is a natural disaster, which is larger, potentially, than any other natural disaster we know of,” Schweickart said. “However, it is preventable … that’s a very important thing to keep in mind. But it is our responsibility to take action to do that.”

U.N. Urged to Take Action Against Killer Asteroids

OK, there is NOT so much as ONE word that I can say concerning the U.N. that will be considered as *nice*, so, with that said…

The U.N., aka: Useless Numbnutz, can’t do anything ON EARTH to make things better. They have crapped out in Darfur. They are totally useless in the Congo. World hunger abounds. There are wars and insurgencies all over the globe. The Somali pirates are acting like Long John Silver raiding the High Seas.

All of this and the Useless Numbnutz can’t do 1 damned thing to rectify the worlds problems, not in any way.

If we have to rely on the U.N. to save the globe from *SPACE THREATS*, we, as a nation, a world and a people, are totally screwed!!

If there’s a killer asteroid about to hit the earth I can do just as much as the U.N. can to prepare you for impact.

OK, here’s what you need to do. Walk to the center of the room. Bend over. Place your head between your legs. Kiss your ASS goodbye.

Jury deliberating whether MySpace hoax was crime

Jury deliberating whether MySpace hoax was crime

LOS ANGELES (AP) — Jurors have begun deliberating whether a Missouri mother conspired with her daughter and an assistant to harass a 13-year-old girl with Internet messages that allegedly prompted the girl’s suicide.

Deliberations began Tuesday, a day after U.S. Attorney Thomas O’Brien told the jury that Lori Drew used a computer to humiliate Megan Meier by inventing a make-believe boy who wooed and then rejected her online.

The defense said the case is a matter of computer law and accused prosecutors of misleading jurors into thinking it was a murder case.

The 49-year-old Drew has pleaded not guilty to conspiracy and accessing computers without authorization. She could be sentenced to as many as 20 years in prison if convicted of all counts.

Jury deliberating whether MySpace hoax was crime

Ya know, if you put yourself out there on the net, blogging, Live Journal, MySpace, FaceBook, whatever, you’d better have a solid grip on reality because you’re going to have detractors, no matter what your personal stance, politics or topics are.

The web is NOT a place for the weak minded, easily hurt or easily influenced, you have to have a thick skin and you learn to ignore the detractors, you literally IGNORE them.

If a certain HOT political blogger were to go *F* himself every time he was told to, or were to become depressed and suicidal over every HATE MAIL he received, he wouldn’t have any time left to post his highly opinionated work!

You let the insults roll off, let the haters rant and rave, that’s all they can do, you are NOT going to please ALL of the over 58 MILLION bloggers and only God knows how many readers that are out there in *real life*. I don’t even try to make everyone happy, I’ve always told folks, ‘If you like what I write, great, I appreciate my readers, if you don’t like what I write, click OFF the blog and don’t come back, then we’re ALL happy’.

Some folks try to address EVERY negative comment or hate mail they receive, they take it personally, and those are the folks that need to back away from the keyboard. Me, I prefer to keep on insulting the brainless, if you know that your work bothers them, why not continue to aggravate them? They make posts about you and your (hate, racism, anti-Americanism, Love of NASCAR, Bush Bashing) blogging, pick one, there any SO many to choose from, but in doing so, they garner you all kinds of new readers and better rankings in the blog world!Just sayin’, you know, IF there were a really HOT political blogger being insulted or attacked online.

And just for laughs, do you know what bloggers call it when they are attacked on line?? Keyboard Karate, very few folks would have the guts to say to your face what they say online due to the anonymity and safety the net offers.

Boo-hoo, the mean woman made a fake account, romanced a weak minded kid that was gullible enough to fall for it and not realize that the net is a world where she didn’t belong. Then she broke her heart. Was it mean?? Yeah, it was. Was it deserved?? That is a moot point, one that I am NOT going to address. Does it happen every day in online communities? Oh hell yeah it does, and it’s was not the fault of ANYONE that the girl committed suicide, had it not been this particular incident, it would surely have been something else.

‘Suzy called me a pea brained poopy pants with cooties’, that is all it takes for some people.
