Arnold Officer Shot by Handcuffed Suspect, Rushed to Hospital With ‘Life-Threatening’ Injuries
ARNOLD • An Arnold police officer was shot inside a police SUV Tuesday afternoon by a handcuffed burglary suspect he was taking to the police department to be booked, authorities said.
Highways were closed so the officer could be rushed to a hospital, according to police. He was shot in the back of the neck or head and his injuries were life-threatening, said Jefferson County Sheriff’s Capt. Gary Higginbotham.
The suspect, identified by police as Chad Klahs, 29, of Arnold, shot himself in the head after shooting the officer, Higginbotham said. Klahs was also taken to a hospital, where he pronounced dead at 2:40 p.m., according to Jefferson County Sheriff Dave Marshak.
Klahs was being transported by Officer Ryan O’Connor, 44, after he was arrested in a burglary investigation at a home not far from the police station, police said.
A gun was taken in that burglary, Higginbotham said. While KLahs was trying to escape police after that burglary, it’s believed he broke into a vehicle and stole another gun.
But officers didn’t know that yet.
After arresting Klahs, officers took one gun from him before handcuffing him and putting him in the back of the SUV, Higginbotham said. Apparently Klahs was able to access the second concealed gun and shoot the officer before shooting himself, Higginbotham said.
Officers inside the station, at 2101 Jeffco Boulevard, saw O’Connor’s SUV approach a sally port, where suspects are brought inside, on a camera. But when O’Connor didn’t come inside, officers went out and found the his SUV crashed into a fuel tank. Both O’Connor and the burglary suspect were seriously wounded inside.
The officer and suspect were both taken to St. Anthony’s Medical Center in South County. O’Connor went into surgery Tuesday afternoon, Shockey said.
The officer’s condition “does not look good,” Higginbotham said Tuesday evening…

Fire at Maryland UPS Center Destroys 10 Packaging Trucks and a Number of Holiday Presents
FREDERICK, Md. (WJLA) — Ten UPS trucks, a trailer and several holiday presents were destroyed in a fire at a facility in Frederick that started late Monday night, according to authorities.
The Frederick Fire Department says they were called to the UPS Center at 6766 English Muffin Way at around 11:21 p.m. The fire started at about 10:30 p.m. and was discovered by an employee during a shift change.
No injuries have been reported but the blaze caused damage to the center in addition to destroying the vehicles and damaging the packages the trailer was carrying.
The trailer and the packages were engulfed in flames while parked inside a loading dock, according to fire officials.
The facility’s sprinkler system did go off and helped stop the fire from doing more damage…

Minnesota Mayor Has Classic Liberal Meltdown Over ‘White Privilege’ Denier [Video]
The latest liberal meltdown comes from Minnesota…This reminds of the mayor who was stopped by the police and had a fake meltdown too (see below). Do these liberals all have a “meltdown handbook”?
SDA reports:
If you’re a Social Justice Warrior, here’s a standard set of tactics to get your way:
Proclaim anything you wish, no matter how ludicrous.
If anyone dares disagree with you, call them a racist, bigot, homophobe, or Islamophobe.
If they dare object, scream at them that they are out of order and to stop interrupting you.
Start shaking and crying, proclaiming how passionate you are about what you’re saying.
Do whatever you need to do to make yourself out to be the victim.
Now that you understand this playbook, watch New Brighton, Minnesota mayor Val Johnson follow this script:

NFL Player Paid $85 Million Taunts Fans Who Oppose Kneeling Protest: ‘You Stay Where You at’
This guy is a public relations nightmare for the Giants…Olivier Vernon is costing the team so much but doesn’t realize he’s biting the hand that feeds him. He gave a reason for his protest that has more to do with politics than the supposed social justice cause that the NFL just dumped millions into: “Vernon passionately explained his decision to kneel after the game, and said Trump “ain’t my president.”
The Giant’s season has been a loser to begin with and now fans are turning away in droves because of the kneeling protest. This guy is a real entitled peach worth $85 million plus…OVERPAID LOSER
New York Giants defensive end Olivier Vernon ignited an outcry after telling fans if they don’t approve of his decision to kneel for the national anthem, “don’t come to the game.”
The retort came after Vernon, the only member of the Giants still regularly taking a knee, told reporters that he had been heckled by fans in response to his season-long protest.
“You hear ‘coward’ and ‘stand up’ and ‘disgrace,’“ Vernon said. “It’s fine. As long as nobody comes on the field and touches me. You stay where you at, you’re going to be all right. They have a right. Oh yeah, I hear it all the time. If they don’t like it, don’t come to the game.”
His comments, which ran Thursday in the New York Post, stunned former NFL quarterback and CBS Sports commentator Boomer Esiason, who called them an “out-and-out disgrace.”

Rep. Thomas Massie (R-KY) is warning that House Leadership plans to merge Obama-style gun control with national reciprocity for concealed carry.
This news comes just days before Rep. Richard Hudson’s (R-NC) national reciprocity legislation, H.R. 38, is supposed to go the House floor for a vote.
Massie explains that the Obama-style gun controls are contained in the “fix-NICS” legislation, the very legislation that House Leadership “plans to merge” with H.R. 38. He used a Facebook post to explain the “fix-NICS” legislation would allow “agencies, not just courts, to adjudicate your second amendment rights.”
He expounds:
[“Fix-NICS”] encourages administrative agencies, not the courts, to submit more names to a national database that will determine whether you can or can’t obtain a firearm. When President Obama couldn’t get Congress to pass gun control, he implemented a strategy of compelling, through administrative rules, the Veterans Administration and the Social Security Administration to submit lists of veterans and seniors, many of whom never had a day in court, to be included in the NICS database of people prohibited from owning a firearm. Only a state court, a federal (article III) court, or a military court, should ever be able to suspend your rights for any significant period of time.
Massie does not name names, but presumes that some are seeking to add the gun control legislation as a way of “to ensure reciprocity will pass in the Senate.” Yet he believes it is a foolish attempt to gain the support of Senators like Dianne Feinstein (D-CA) and Chuck Schumer (D-NY), who will not support national reciprocity legislation “even if it contains the fix-NICS legislation they support for expanding the background check database.”

Several UPS Trucks, Facility Damaged in Overnight Md. Blaze
The fire at a UPS terminal in Frederick, Md. destroyed a lot of holiday packages-so the big question for the Santa’s Helpers at UPS is: what now?
FREDERICK, MD. (WUSA9) — A raging overnight fire at a UPS facility in Frederick may keep a few Christmas gifts from reaching their destinations.
According to Kevin Fox, spokesman for the Frederick County Fire Department, a fire was reported at the UPS facility located in the 6700 block of English Muffin Way around 11:41 p.m.
Once fire crews arrived on the scene they found 10 UPS trucks and a loading structure fully involved.
It took firefighters approximately 45 minutes to bring the blaze under control, Fox said.
No injuries have been reported.
Fox says a sprinkler system activated inside the main structure, limiting damage inside the facility. The building suffered mostly exterior damage, along with 10 trucks, and an unknown number of packages.
The cause of the fire is under investigation by the Fire Marshal, who at last check was still at the scene…

A six-year-old Muslim boy with Down syndrome was feared as a terrorist by his teacher in a US school after he kept repeating ‘Allah’ and ‘boom’ in his classroom, a media report said on Sunday.
Mohammad Suleiman was born with Down Syndrome and he has intellectual difficulties, according to his father.
He said his son’s regular teacher in an elementary school left and a substitute teacher called police in Pearland, around 20 miles south of Houston, in Texas, about his son.

Woman Admits to Stabbing 85-Year-Old Man Inside Terrytown Home, JP Sheriff Says
Deputies called to home after victim’s son could not get in touch with him in recent days
TERRYTOWN — Deputies called to check on an 85-year-old man whose relatives had not heard from him in recent days were greeted at the door of his home by a woman who admitted she stabbed him to death, Jefferson Parish Sheriff Joe Lopinto said.
Deputies found the man’s lifeless body inside his house about 12:30 p.m. Tuesday at the house in the 600 block of National Avenue, Lopinto said.
He declined to identify the victim until authorities could notify his family. He also declined to identify the woman, who he said lived with the victim, but said she will be booked on a count of second-degree murder. He said the woman was being treated for “psychiatric conditions.”
Lopinto said deputies arrived at the home after the victim’s son said he had not heard from his father in recent days.
While the coroner will have to determine how long the victim had been dead before he was found, Lopinto said it appears to have been days. “At least a week or so,” he said…

Tears Matter — Justine Trudeau and the Rise of Emo-Politics
by Falko Baumgartner
S ince the dawn of democracy, politicians have been the one occupational class which beats actors at acting. In ancient Athens, the principal assembly of the citizens was held in the largest theater of the city, establishing for all times the inseparable link between drama and politics. Last week, former Canadian drama teacher and current Whine Minister Justine Trudeau picked up this tradition in the parliament over the supposed “oppression of the lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, queer, and two-spirit communities,” whatever the last term means. True to form the WM was moved by her own words and began to shed a tear.
With the handkerchief ready to hand Justine was evidently in her element. Breitbart records that she “has previously cried during public appearances on numerous occasions,” including for the children of residential schools, at a reunion with a “Syrian refugee” and the funeral for the victims of the Quebec mosque attack. A would-be actress seems to have found the role of her life. Given the endless list of grievance groups the left brings into position against the White heterosexual male oppressor class, this soap opera will surely have many more acts during the rest of her term.
Self-manipulated emotions have of course belonged to the job profile of politicians long before Justine discovered method acting. But only five or ten years ago, such a perpetual display of tears would have profoundly disqualified any politician from holding an office in the eyes of the normal voter. It would have been a killer criteria. Not anymore. Today the public appears to be comfortable with the ultimate authority lying in the hands of the Crybaby-in-Chief. It even seems to crave for more expressions of “emotion.” And the politicians readily deliver…

There’s Nothing Islamophobic About Arresting ISIS Fighters
According to Canadian intelligence agencies, at least 250 Canadian citizens have traveled to Syria and Iraq to fight for the terrorist organization ISIS and at least 60 of those have returned to Canada.
The terrorist threat to Canada posed by these extremists is obvious. However, even if they do not commit new acts of violence in our country it remains the case that these individuals broke the law by travelling to another country for the purposes of committing an act of terror.

France: Islamism in the Heart of the State
On all questions dedicated to immigration and Islam, France’s Council of State has become an Islamo-leftist body, dedicated to encouraging Muslim immigration and protecting the expansion of Islam and Islamism in France.
The government wanted to expel foreign workers immediately after the cancellation of their work permit. Due to the Council of State, deportation was delayed by 24 hours, enough time to allow them to escape and become permanent illegal immigrants.
Maybe the elites are looking for “redemption” after France colonized parts of Africa. They are forgetting, however, that it was Muslims who colonized the Middle East, the Christian Byzantine Empire, North Africa, Greece, much of Eastern Europe and Asia, Northern Cyprus and Spain.

Hungary Says Anti-George Soros Campaign Most Successful Yet
BUDAPEST, Hungary (AP) — The Hungarian government’s recently ended campaign against the influence of Hungarian-American financier George Soros is the “most successful” of its “national consultations” asking voters for their opinions on different issues, the government spokesman said Tuesday.
Zoltan Kovacs said that by Dec. 1, a record 2.33 million people had returned questionnaires asking whether they agreed with Soros’ alleged positions supporting migration into Hungary and Europe. Opposition parties say the government’s claim that 28 percent of voters participated is exaggerated, but Kovacs said the questionnaires’ tally would be made public after completion.

UK: MI5 Knew About Manchester Bomber Months Before Attack
The Manchester bombing might have been stopped and MI5 was investigating the ringleader of the London Bridge terror attack at the time of his rampage, a security review has found.
Security services had intelligence about Manchester bomber Salman Abedi in the months before his attack killed 22 adults and children outside an Ariana Grande concert, a report by David Anderson QC revealed.
The information would have caused an investigation into him to be opened ‘had its true significance been properly understood’, the review said.
It also emerged that a meeting to discuss Abedi’s threat level was due to be held a week after he carried out his deadly bombing.
The review also revealed that London Bridge attacker Khuram Butt was being actively investigated by security services at the time of his attack and Westminster terrorist Khalid Masood scoped out the bridge days before he drove a car along its pavement.

UK: Perversions of Justice: Emboldening Muslim Pedophiles, Discrediting Law Enforcers
The former Manchester police detective who exposed a pedophile ring in Rochdale — and resigned in 2012 over the failure of the system to bring the perpetrators to justice — recently broke her silence. She told the British press about the abuse to which she was subjected in her department for attempting to reveal that the perpetrators were Muslim men of Pakistani origin.
Maggie Oliver explained that the reason she decided to come forward with her story was the discovery that a former colleague, detective John Wedger, not only had experienced similar bullying at the hands of the Greater Manchester Police department, but is suffering from post-traumatic stress disorder as a result of his ordeal. Wedger said he was forced into early retirement in October, after more than two decades of service, due to his mental state. His shaky condition was caused, he said, by the behavior of his colleagues and superiors, who were aware that children were being sexually exploited; not only did they dismiss the fact, however, but at least one officer was providing the perpetrators with information about the investigation.

Vatican Issues Far-Left Declaration on Climate Change, ‘Very Fabric of Life on Earth at Grave Risk’
In a dramatic declaration punctuated by dire threats and warnings, the Vatican is urging the world to “decarbonize the energy system as early as possible and no later than mid-century” to avoid irreversible damage to humans and ecosystems.
In its newly released “Final Declaration: Our Planet, Our Health, Our Responsibility” from a November workshop on climate change, air pollution and health, the Pontifical Academy of Sciences warns that “there is less than a decade” to put in place a series of sweeping measures to counteract the effects of human-induced climate change. “The time to act is now,” it reads.
Surprisingly for a statement coming from an academy of “science,” the document is riddled with unscientific assertions in a bizarre mix of political ideology and apocalyptic hyperbole…
Of course, no declaration of this kind would be complete without an indictment of capitalism and an assertion of the profound guilt of the wealthier nations for causing such a deplorable state of affairs.

The Top Secret Microwave Missile That Could Take Out North Korea’s Nukes
The North Korean regime, run by dictator Kim Jong-Un, may be stopped before a war can even begin. The Air Force has a top-secret weapon that could annihilate the tyrannical country’s missiles, disabling them before they can even be launched.
The Air Force and other government agencies have been working on the weaponization of microwaves for over two decades. According to the Daily Mail, the White House has discussed using experimental microwave missiles against North Korea to disable any of Kim Jong-un’s nukes. The Air Force could use CHAMP (Counter-electronics High Power Microwave Advanced Missile Project) weapons to fry the electronics controlling Kim’s latest rockets, stopping them from being launched. The use of the CHAMP weapons, which are not yet operational, was discussed at a White House meeting on North Korea back in August, according to NBC News.
“These high-powered microwave signals are very effective at disrupting and possibly disabling electronic circuits,” said Mary Lou Robinson, who heads development of the weapons at the Air Force Research Laboratory in Albuquerque, in an exclusive interview with NBC News.
“Think about when you put something in your microwave that has metal on it,” said Senator Martin Heinrich, a Democrat from New Mexico. “You know how badly that goes? Imagine directing those microwaves at someone’s electronics.” Senator Heinrich, a member of the Armed Services Committee, began his career as an engineer at the Air Force Research Laboratory in Albuquerque.
The Air Force Research Laboratory began the CHAMP back in 2009. In 2012, one of the weapons was tested in Utah against electronic equipment that was set up to mirror the capabilities of Iran and North Korea. The weapon managed to wipe out everything inside the first building it targeted, including the camera recording the test, before going on to target five more buildings then crashing itself at a pre-determined site. This is, so far, the only declassified test of a microwave weapon.

Europe’s Migrant Crisis: Millions Still to Come
The African Union-European Union (AU-EU) summit, held in in Abidjan, Côte d’Ivoire, on November 29-30, 2017, has ended in abject failure after the 55 African and 28 European leaders attending the event were unable to agree on even basic measures to prevent potentially tens of millions of African migrants from flooding Europe.
Despite high expectations and grand statements, the only concrete decision to come out of Abidjan was the promise to evacuate 3,800 African migrants stranded in Libya.
More than six million migrants are waiting in countries around the Mediterranean to cross into Europe, according to a classified German government report leaked to Bild. The report said that one million people are waiting in Libya; another one million are waiting in Egypt, 720,000 in Jordan, 430,000 in Algeria, 160,000 in Tunisia, and 50,000 in Morocco. More than three million others who are waiting in Turkey are currently prevented from crossing into Europe by the EU’s migrant deal with Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan.
The former head of the British embassy in Benghazi, Joe Walker-Cousins, warned that as many as a million migrants from countries across Africa are already on the way to Libya and Europe. The EU’s efforts to train a Libyan coast guard was “too little and too late,” he said. “My informants in the area tell me there are potentially one million migrants, if not more, already coming up through the pipeline from central Africa and the Horn of Africa.”

This is why I laugh at the, ‘Fourth Turning,’ believers who insist Millennials are going to rise to the challenges ahead, like the folks who lived through the World Wars and Great Depression.
I trust Donald Trump is having a good laugh at Theresa May now.

The Vatican’s pontifical academy must be made up of fools. Certainly, they should all be banned from automobiles, electric lights generated by carbon and all air travel…forever.
This is intended to try to justify a short comment I made here yesterday which never saw the light of day, presumably because it gave the impression that I wish harm to Mrs May. This is not true on a personal level, however….
GoV appears to take the view that the West, or at least Europe, is sliding towards unavoidable bloody conflict. If that is the case, what should a strategic view of jihad attacks look like from our side?
I wish to suggest that at the moment we are currently in a game of own goals. Each attack from either side benefits (mainly) the victim because of the sympathy it evokes for them. This has been so with attacks on Muslims (eg the van attack outside Finsbury Park Mosque) or their allies (eg Charlottesville anti-fascist [according to the Guardian] protesters). On the other hand it appears that it is only jihad atrocities that even stand a chance of waking up the populace before it is too late to reverse the situation we find ourselves in.
If that is so then it must follow that counter jihad supporters should welcome jihad attacks, and the more spectacular the better, just as the British government welcomed the attack on Pearl Harbour in 1941 while no doubt mourning those killed.
This is not a view I have come to lightly, and I detest my enemies for forcing me to it, but if anyone can refute the logic then I would be glad of it.
Here is a guesstimate of the number of casualties from various sections of society, any one of which might produce a sea change in public awareness and force the government to seriously address the crucial question “Are we at war?” and possibly adopt effective measures:
1000 ordinary Joes
500 soldiers (squaddies that is, or 50 officers)
200 police officers
100 academics
70 churchmen
30 journalists
20 celebrities
10 MPs
5 Government ministers
3 moneymen
1 Prime Minister or the Queen.
Or if our enemies have any sense they will just continue to remind us they are here with small scale outrages while the demographics move irreversibly in their favour.
Can’t disagree with that other than I would seriously up the number of politicians because that would certainly concentrate their culturally treacherous minds
