seems they bring all kinds of sound bites together rolling it all up into a sinister idea.
When not all the people who use the words 'New World Order' had sinister in mind.
We will have to work together for stability... but we have to stop being an agent
instigating instability. Greed has to be toned down. Moderation in all things.

Our Police in New York are decent... they would wound someone before killing them
and might take a tazer if they hear an elderly lady is brandishing a shotgun in her home at night. Shame on California Police.
So if a Census worker knocks on your door at 7:45 at night - don't answer the door. An autopsy Friday showed she died of "multiple gunshot wounds,"
said Sutter County Sheriff's Department spokeswoman Brenda Baker. Are California Police so Agressive/Backward ? ................................................................................ Hello? Tazer? Heard of it? Does The Yuba Ciy Police Dept. Own one? Perhaps we could take up a collection for them?
There are a number of cartridges designated by range, with the maximum at 35 feet (10.6 m).[18] Cartridges available to non-law enforcement consumers are limited to 15 feet (4.5 m).[19] The electrodes are pointed to penetrate clothing and barbed to prevent removal once in place. Earlier Taser models had difficulty in penetrating thick clothing, but newer versions (X26, C2) use a "shaped pulse" that increases effectiveness in the presence of barriers.[20]
she died of "multiple gunshot wounds," how sick is that? (need target practice? heard of wounding? ) A neighbor reported hearing five or six shots. UPDATE: Y.C. woman killed by police pointed gun at officers
.................................................................................................... May 22, 2010 01:00:00 AM
.........................................................................................................................................
This AP Story does Not sound believable to me....
Pavey says Roger-Vasselin was shot after she came outside the house with the shotgun and refused orders to put the gun down.
The neighbor said she saw a man face dwn on the ground and thought he had shot someone... she would have seen a 67 year old woman's body with 5 or 6 bullet wounds outside the house
IF she had been outside the house.
seems it doesn't look so good to do that to a person who is inside
their home?
and...
A Yuba City police spokeswoman says officers responding to the home around 9 p.m.
An Hour and 20 min?
.....................................
Police scanner traffic indicated the shooting happened about 10:20 p.m.
