Thai Government Extends State of Emergency Decree
The Thai government extended the state of emergency in Bangkok which was imposed after civil unrest in April and May. Fearing a resurgence of the anti-government ‘red shirt’ movement, the strict security law has been extended for another three months.
Thailand extended the controversial security law in Bangkok and three surrounding provinces on Tuesday. The government said the situation remained volatile months after the latest round of political violence.
It bans political gatherings of more than five people and allows media censorship and detention of suspects without charge for up to 30 days.
Ninety one people were killed and nearly two thousand wounded in clashes in central Bangkok in April and May between security forces and protesters who demanded an early election.
The movement held a rally of more than ten thousand people in Bangkok on September 19th, despite the emergency laws.
Bangkok has been plagued by minor bombings being linked to the country’s political crisis, although no one has claimed responsibility and few arrests have been made.
The government remains wary, warning that violent elements among the anti-government “red shirt” movement may attempt to instigate another round of unrest.
[Supachai Jaisamut, Government Spokesman]:
“They continue to hold activities in Bangkok where the area is unstable and for those three provinces, it’s the activists’ base. The area is a big gathering place for protesters.”
Rights groups and activists say the decree is unconstitutional and is being used by the government to push its agenda and stifle its opponents.
The resurgence of the anti-government “red shirts” is one of the biggest political risks in Southeast Asia’s second biggest economy.

Police Brutality: Cops Beat Man On Motorcycle!
Dallas police have released the dashcam video that shows several officers beating a motorcycle driver at the end of a chase.
The video was taken from inside several squad cars during the Sept. 5 incident.
Chief David Brown said Officers Kevin Randolph and Paul Bauer began pursuing 28-year-old Andrew Collins because he was revving his motorcycle on the sidewalk of MLK Boulevard.
There was a pursuit that ended with Collins parking his bike on Lamar Street.
The squad car hits the parked motorcycle, and then two officers begin to beat Collins with batons and their fists.
One of the most shocking aspects of the video happens before the attack. Either Randolph or Bauer can be heard planning his next move.
¿Pull up alongside him so I can beat the sh** out of him,¿ the officer says.
Brown said a police supervisor received an anonymous tip letting him know about the case. As a result 22 officer, including Randolph and Bauer, were interviewed.
Randolph has since been fired.
He and Bauer will be charged with assault, official oppression and tampering with or fabricating evidence.
Officer Henry Walter Duetsch also will be charged with tampering with or fabricating evidence because Brown said he turned the dash camera in one squad car.
Bauer and Duetsch remain on administrative leave pending further investigation.
Three other officers who made physical contact with the suspect, Officers Jeremy Francis, Robert Kamphouse and Daniel Malouf, also have been placed on restricted desk duty.
Police will continue questioning other officers that were at the scene.
¿Every citizen deserves a measure of respect. As Chief of police for the city of Dallas, I expect citizens to hold me accountable for insuring that Dallas officers treat all citizens with fairness and compassion,¿ Brown said. “No one is above the laws of this great country and I expect officers observing any of their peers violating the law or the department¿s rules to report those violations immediately.¿
Brown said he believes the incident was a big deal because of the premeditation and lack of apparent motive.
¿The public¿s trust and confidence in the Dallas Police Department cannot and will not be compromised by the misconduct of a few officers,¿ he said. ¿This won¿t be tolerated. Today my expression to you I think speaks to that intolerance.¿
The FBI is also involved to see if Collins’ civil rights were violated.
He has since been treated for bruising and clotting. The charge of resisting arrest against him has been dropped
Dallas Mayor Tom Leppert has condemned the beating. He told the Dallas Regional Chamber of Commerce on Wednesday that the behavior of officers is “absolutely unacceptable.”
Leppert promises that Chief David Brown will take “decisive action and … reinforce the integrity and the standards of the Dallas Police Department.”

Pastor Fights Back against Police Brutality.m4v
Sorry about the music I kept getting taken down for copyright infringement. This is me on Guitar sitting in with “Rule 62″. You can see at the end it was a real garage band. The original version where the music matches the pictures can be seen at

under the title “Civic Madness”
My apologies to all the good police officers at the Norwalk PD, I mean no offence to you. As a minister I have to be lumped in with sexual perverts all the time and it really sucks. You guys get a bad rap from bad cops. I know you try your best and we all have bad days sometimes, just remember, an, “I’m sorry” goes a long way. I did not name some of you guys and prayed hard and waited 2 years before going forward with my case. I was wronged big time. If you care to go to my site all the stuff can be found.
If you ever hear my name over the radio, I hope you guys will come and watch my back. There are always brown nosed arse kissers that don’t came about people’s rights, or the lives they ruin in the process.
I do have a question to those in charge. With such a huge gang problem in the city and all the gang slayings, Why in the world would the department send two detectives to follow and photograph some kook with a sign? Why arrest a Pastor in his church for that matter? Why not go after the big fish? Like a guy who commits Grand Larceny. Det. OC I still might name you in my complaint, I am just trying to figure out your motive for not looking deeper into what I showed you. Maybe I will send it by there one more time before the statute of limitations runs out. I do have hard evidence.
Oh, and I gave every chance for the city to make right before I went further, But I guess some people can’t read. Everything can be found on my web sites. www.Suebadcops.com and www.ccnorwalk.com
The links to the articles are on the front page of my web site. I think the Captain would make a great expert witness at the trial. If you guys know how to get a hold of him tell him I am looking for him and to give me a call.
Again, sorry to all you good cops out there. Please remember the Constitution is written for all of us and no one is above the law.
You are all always in my prayers (even you bad boys [and girls]) Stay safe out there.
Pastor Paul
P.s. Chief John Cashin please contact me I need you as an expert witness

The Obama Deception Part 12 of 12
“Give me control of a nation’s money and I care not who makes the laws.” – Mayer Amschel Rothschild 1789
The Obama Deception is a hard-hitting film that completely destroys the myth that Barack Obama is working for the best interests of the American people. The Obama phenomenon is a hoax carefully crafted by the captains of the New World Order. He is being pushed as savior in an attempt to con the American people into accepting global slavery.
We have reached a critical juncture in the New World Order’s plans. It’s not about Left or Right: it’s about a One World Government. The international banks plan to loot the people of the United States and turn them into slaves on a Global Plantation. Covered in this film: who Obama works for, what lies he has told, and his real agenda. If you want to know the facts and cut through all the hype, this is the film for you.
Watch The Obama Deception and learn how: Obama is continuing the process of transforming America into something that resembles Nazi Germany, with forced National Service, domestic civilian spies, warrantless wiretaps, the destruction of the Second Amendment, FEMA camps and Martial Law. Obama’s handlers are openly announcing the creation of a new Bank of the World that will dominate every nation on earth through carbon taxes and military force.
International bankers purposefully engineered the worldwide financial meltdown to bankrupt the nations of the planet and bring in World Government. Obama plans to loot the middle class, destroy pensions and federalize the states so that the population is completely dependent on the Central Government. The Elite are using Obama to pacify the public so they can usher in the North American Union by stealth, launch a new Cold War and continue the occupation of Iraq and Afghanistan.
The information contained in this film is vital to the future of the Republic and to freedom worldwide. President Barack Obama is only the tool of a larger agenda. Until all are made aware, humanity will remain captive to the masters of the New World Order.

Howard Zinn on A People’s History of the United States – Part 2 (1995)
July 24, 1995 http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/0060838655?ie=UTF8&tag=doc06-20&linkCode=as2&camp=1789&creative=9325&creativeASIN=0060838655
Zinn wrote one of the earliest books calling for the U.S. withdrawal from its war in Vietnam. Vietnam: The Logic of Withdrawal was published by Beacon Press in 1967 based on his articles in Commonwealth, The Nation, and Ramparts.
In Noam Chomsky’s view, The Logic of Withdrawal, was Zinn’s most important book. “He was the first person to say—loudly, publicly, very persuasively—that this simply has to stop; we should get out, period, no conditions; we have no right to be there; it’s an act of aggression; pull out. That was so surprising at the time—it became more commonplace later—that he couldn’t even—there wasn’t even a review of the book. In fact, he asked me if I would review it in Ramparts just so that people would know about the book.”
In December 1969, radical historians tried unsuccessfully to persuade the American Historical Association to pass an anti-Vietnam War resolution. “A debacle unfolded as Harvard historian (and AHA president in 1968) John Fairbank literally wrestled the microphone from Zinn’s hands.” Correspondence by Fairbank, Zinn and other historians, published by the AHA in 1970, is online in what Fairbank called “our briefly-famous Struggle for the Mike.”
In later years, Zinn was an adviser to the Disarm Education Fund.
An interview with Zinn is featured in the documentary film Sacco and Vanzetti (2007).
The Pearl Jam song “Down” from the album Lost Dogs (album) was inspired by the band’s friendship with Zinn.[citation needed] In the March 13, 2010 episode of Saturday Night Live, lead singer Eddie Vedder’s guitar sports a sticker reading “ZINN.”
Actors Matt Damon and Ben Affleck who grew up near Zinn and were family friends, gave A People’s History a plug in their Academy Award-winning screenplay for Good Will Hunting.
Marge Simpson is seen reading A People’s History in The Simpsons episode 1911 That 90′s Show, which flashes back to when Marge was in college.
Musician Bruce Springsteen’s bleak album “Nebraska” was inspired in part by “A People’s History.”
A People’s History was the basis for the 2007 documentary, Profit Motive and the Whispering Wind.”
The NOFX song “Franco Un-American” references Howard Zinn.
In the System Of A Down song “Deer Dance”, about Police Brutality against peaceful protest, Zinn is paraphrased in the line “We can’t afford to be neutral on a moving train.”
The People Speak, scheduled for release on DVD in February 2010, is a documentary movie inspired by the lives of ordinary people who fought back against oppressive conditions over the course of the history of the United States. The film includes performances by Zinn, Matt Damon, Morgan Freeman, Bob Dylan, Bruce Springsteen, Eddie Vedder, Viggo Mortensen, Josh Brolin, Danny Glover, Marisa Tomei, Don Cheadle, and Sandra Oh.
