HATE CRIME? KNOCKOUT GAME A NATIONAL PROBLEM - Some say since it was white on black it was a hate crime!

VIDEO: VIOLENT GAME OF ‘KNOCKOUT’ BREAKS OUT AT BROOKLYN MALL AFTER HUNDREDS OF TEENS PLAN MASS LOOTING ON FACEBOOK AND TWITTER

Hundreds of rowdy teenagers shut down a Brooklyn mall, trashing stores and reportedly assaulting security guards during day-after Christmas sales on Thursday. The teens reportedly used Facebook and Twitter to plan mass looting, vowing to put the mall “on tilt.” More than “400 crazed teens grabbed and smashed jars of candy, stole cheap items such as baby balloons and beat up security guards at Kings Plaza Shopping Center in Mill Basin between 5 p.m. and 7 p.m., merchants said,” according to the New York Post. Further, sources also told the Post that a violent game of “knockout” broke out on the upper level of the mall. There were fears that at least of the teens may have had a gun. Watch some of the video footage reportedly showing the wild scene at Kings Plaza.

WABC-TV reports that the flash mob may have been started by a shirt one girl was wearing that included a picture and an ugly message about another girl. The girls reportedly responded to a message on Facebook to meet at the mall. “Videos posted online show the unruly teenagers in the mall, and at least one was taken down by a police officer. Some of the videos appear to have been taken on the second floor, near the Best Buy store,” the report states. Abu Taleb, a clerk at Candy Plaza 2, told the New York Post he’s never seen anything like the chaotic scene that unfolded at the mall on Thursday. “I’m so scared,” he said. “I know they will come back. I was begging them to stop. There were a lot of kids hundreds of kids… [Security] would chase them out one door and they would come back in another door,” the clerk added.

Clerks at other stores were also terrified and forced to roll down the metal gates protecting their stores as security and police attempted to break up the unruly mob. The mall remained closed for about an hour, according to the Post’s sources. “People were getting really scared. A tall white guy with a grey bubble coat was wearing a ski mask and a skull cap and he had his hand under his coat like he was holding a gun,” a perfume merchant recalled. Some of the teens took to social media to brag about the mob violence, including the assault of security guards.


This next article states this Knockout attack was a hate crime? Since this attack was a white guy attacking a black man. How come when a black guy attacks a white guy its not a hate crime?

Feds: 'Knockout' attack was a hate crime

A man has been charged with a federal hate crime in connection with what authorities say was a racially motivated "knockout" assault against an elderly black man, the U.S. Justice Department said Thursday. Conrad Alvin Barrett, 27, of Katy, Texas, has been charged with one count of violating the Matthew Shepard and James Byrd Jr. Hate Crimes Prevention Act. According to the federal complaint, Barrett attacked the 79-year-old man "because of the man's race and color." He will next appear in court Friday afternoon for a detention hearing.

The suspect made a video of the attack November 24, the complaint said. In the video, he allegedly commented that "the plan is to see if I were to hit a black person, would this be nationally televised?"He then allegedly "hit the man with such force that the man immediately fell to the ground. Barrett then laughed and said 'knockout,' as he ran to his vehicle and fled." The victim suffered two jaw fractures and was hospitalized for several days, the complaint said. Barrett's attorney, George Parnham, told CNN the affidavit does not "pull back the layers of mental health." His client has bipolar disorder and takes medication, Parnham said in an earlier call. Parnham said he could not state whether his client carried out the attack, but, "mental health issues definitely played a part in anything that occurred." Barrett "is very sorry for this person," Parnham said, adding that he and his client haven't had much opportunity to discuss the facts of the case.

IMPEACHABLE OFFENSES - Barack Obama

The list of impeachable offenses by President Obama continues to grow. As if the multiple scandals riddling his administration (NSA, IRS, Benghazi, Fast and Furious, et al) are not enough, now, the president seems hell-bent on making a decision that will jeopardize America like a dictator rather than getting approval from Congress.

Listed in no particular order:

1 Political profiling by the IRS
2 Outlandish Supreme Court argugements
3 Recess appointments
4 Assault on free speech and due process on college campuses
5 Mini dream act
6 Delay of Obamacare's out-of-pocket caps
7 Delay of Obamacare's employer mandate
8 Delay of Obamacare's insurance requirements
9 Exemption of Congress from Obamacare
10 Expansion of the employer mandate penalty through IRS regulation 

ILLEGAL OFFENSES - right of passage for federal crimes

We must stop illegal immigration for the better of the United States. In American history immigration jump-started this great nation, it was a vehicle for growth and prosperity. America was a new world full of opportunity and a place for refuge. Today it is not, America is wounded from the impact of illegal immigration. A child will continue into adulthood to say or do what worked for them in the past. As an adult they will suffer the consequences in handling affairs in this manner. Its time for America to do away with its childish answers for immigration.

"Illegal immigration costs taxpayers $45 billion a year in health care, education, and incarceration expenses."
–Ric Keller

"Right down the street, I have an illegal couple that HUD bought a home for, put them on food stamps, pays for their health care and gets a constant stream of other freebies. Two years ago I reported them directly to the Portland office of ICE. The got picked up. Turns out they get to stay because their kid is serving eleven years for b&e and rape. This is the State and Feds agreeing to do this. They do not have visas because people involved in felony activity cannot pass law enforcement checks. There is a whole string of federal fraud laws being violated here along with direct violation of IRS law. If it was me as an American citizen I’d being looking at ten years in a federal pen." –Unanimous

CHRISTIAN PERSECUTION - this time for no outrage

UGANDA - Gays will be put to death or see 14 years in prison. The sole purpose of this article is to expose Christians as the baddies once again. Since Christians weren't outraged over this and they were over Duck Dynasty. 

About a week ago, Phil Robertson was suspended from his family’s show Duck Dynasty for comments he made regarding homosexuality. About two to three days later, Uganda passes a bill through it’s legislative body which would imprison....(read more)The article goes on further saying that they are willing to give Christianity the benefit of the doubt since it was Christmas week and we were all busy trimming the trees and sipping hot cocoa. As if focusing on ourselves is all we Christians do for society.

It is outrageous that the media makes many attempts to generalize Christians as a non-caring group of people. This article is a futile attempt to condemn a group of people during the holidays and furthermore push the agenda of homosexuals. Christianity as a base is a group focused on the love and welfare of men which encompasses all forms. Why divide the American people with this form of rubbish and persecute Christians further for their beliefs simply because it does not fall in line with the homosexual or liberal agenda? It seems to me, the second someone from the liberal party pushes a topic and any topic for that matter, Christians are supposed to jump on the liberal-media bandwagon and shout along side their solicited homosexual ramblings. If we do not comply we are then posed as part of the problem. In the minds of liberals and liberal-media Christians are not allowed to have an unpopular opinion as they should stay silent.

We are all different and unique at the same time, we are also all created in the image of God. To set the record straight, if individuals are being imprisoned or put to death for their choices to live the homosexual lifestyle we Christians are against it. Furthermore, this does not give liberal-media the right to attack Christianity or paint a false picture of what we as Christians are for or against. But then again we do have free speach.

OBAMACARE HEROIN - Massachusetts State Police confiscated 1,250 individual bags of heroin, many of them labeled “Obama Care.”


DUCK DYNASTY CRUCIFIED - Phil Robertson gets crucified for his Christian stance from proponents of political correctness: "I stand with Phil Robertson"



A&E dropped to its knees from progressive bullies by taking Phil Robertson off of his own show for simply quoting the bible which ignited a firestorm among Christian conservatives who are tired of double standards. Progressives, the very same people who praise serial womanizer Bill Clinton, who shy away from attacking Barack Obama, and who cheer the likes of human rights violator Ahmadinejad are out to destroy Phil Robertson's life, livelihood, and success because he is an outspoken born again Christian who is not afraid to share his biblical beliefs. If quoting the words from the bible can get you labeled a bigot and a hater, then how long before the left attempts to outlaw the bible? How long before they attack churches? How long before they deem Christian prayer hate speech and therefore make doing so a crime?

KNOCKOUT GAME - Bored Teens

Teenagers today have very busy worlds.  Friends, school, extra curricular activities, and in hopefully doing their homework. In our ever-changing world technology rules with its smart phones, computers, the internet, video games etc. With all these responsibilities and distractions, one can only imagine why teens would choose to spend their time playing the "knockout game."

Knockout, the knockout game, knockout king, bombing, polar-bearing, and polar-bear hunting, are the names given to assaults in which, purportedly, one or more assailants attempt to knock out an unsuspecting victim, often with a single sucker punch. Serious injuries and deaths have been attributed to knockout. Some commentators in the United States have cast doubt that the knockout game is an actual trend and have termed it a myth or an example of moral panic. Others have focused on the perception that the game is racially motivated and have called for it to be labelled a hate crime.


IN RECENT NEWS 11/29/13

An Elderly woman could be city’s 10th ‘knockout game’ victim. Yvonne Small, 76, fell to the ground after being punched by her assailant on Alabama Ave. and Wortman Ave. in East New York about 11:35 a.m. She was punched in the back of the head by her assailant on Alabama Ave. and Wortman Ave. in East New York about 11:35 a.m., according to police sources. She was treated at Brookdale University Hospital and discharged. Her attacker was being sought by police. As she was being attacked, an already-planned rally against the sick game was wrapping up in the same neighborhood. Activists called for an end to the "game," in which punks try to knock a stranger unconscious with a single punch, then post video of the attack online. "We're not going to tolerate anybody striking, hitting or putting their hands on our women in any shape or fashion," said Tony Herbert, president of the National Action Network Brooklyn chapter. Herbert said activists will pressure social media websites to take down videos of the sick attacks. The "knockout game" has already claimed lives in Syracuse, St. Louis and New Jersey. Several injuries have been reported in Crown Heights. One of the New York victims said he believes he was targeted because he's an Orthodox Jew.


ARE YOUR TEENS BORED?

A new survey finds the risk that teens will smoke, drink, get drunk and use illegal drugs increases sharply if they are highly stressed, frequently bored or have substantial amounts of spending money.

Joseph Califano, the chairman and president of the National Center on Addiction and Substance Abuse at Columbia University, visited The Early Show to discuss the survey's findings and shared tips on how parents can lower the risk of teen substance abuse.

The survey, which was conducted by the National Center on Addiction and Substance Abuse at Columbia University found the following:

  • High stress teens are twice as likely as low stress teens to smoke, drink, get drunk and use illegal drugs. 
  • Often bored teens are 50 percent likelier than teens not often bored to smoke, drink, get drunk and use illegal drugs.
  • Teens with $25 or more a week in spending money are nearly twice as likely as teens with less to smoke, drink and use illegal drugs, and more than twice as likely to get drunk. 
  • Teens exhibiting two or three of these characteristics are at more than three times the risk of substance abuse as those exhibiting none of these characteristics. 
  • More than half the nation's 12 to 17-year-olds, or 52 percent, are at greater risk of substance abuse because of high stress, frequent boredom, too much spending money or some combination of these characteristics.

TIPS FOR PARENTS WITH BORED TEENS:

  • Be sensitive to the stress in your children's lives and help them cope.
  • Understand when and why your children are bored and help relieve their boredom.
  • Limit the amount of money your children have to spend and monitor how that money is spent.
  • Know who your children's friends are.
  • Be engaged in your children's lives: help them with their homework, attend their sports events, participate in activities together and talk to them about drugs.
  • Find ways to serve with your kids, it will show them how to love others

BRAINY QUOTES - Obama Quotes on Muslims and Christians

20 Quotes By Barack Obama About Islam

#1 “The future must not belong to those who slander the Prophet of Islam”
#2 “The sweetest sound I know is the Muslim call to prayer”
#3 “We will convey our deep appreciation for the Islamic faith, which has done so much over the centuries to shape the world — including in my own country.”
#4 “As a student of history, I also know civilization’s debt to Islam.”
#5 “Islam has a proud tradition of tolerance.”
#6 “Islam has always been part of America”
#7 “we will encourage more Americans to study in Muslim communities”
#8 “These rituals remind us of the principles that we hold in common, and Islam’s role in advancing justice, progress, tolerance, and the dignity of all human beings.”
#9 “America and Islam are not exclusive and need not be in competition. Instead, they overlap, and share common principles of justice and progress, tolerance and the dignity of all human beings.”
#10 “I made clear that America is not – and never will be – at war with Islam.”
#11 “Islam is not part of the problem in combating violent extremism – it is an important part of promoting peace.”
#12 “So I have known Islam on three continents before coming to the region where it was first revealed”
#13 “In ancient times and in our times, Muslim communities have been at the forefront of innovation and education.”
#14 “throughout history, Islam has demonstrated through words and deeds the possibilities of religious tolerance and racial equality.”
#15 “Ramadan is a celebration of a faith known for great diversity and racial equality”
#16 “The Holy Koran tells us, ‘O mankind! We have created you male and a female; and we have made you into nations and tribes so that you may know one another.’”
#17 “I look forward to hosting an Iftar dinner celebrating Ramadan here at the White House later this week, and wish you a blessed month.”
#18 “We’ve seen those results in generations of Muslim immigrants – farmers and factory workers, helping to lay the railroads and build our cities, the Muslim innovators who helped build some of our highest skyscrapers and who helped unlock the secrets of our universe.”
#19 “That experience guides my conviction that partnership between America and Islam must be based on what Islam is, not what it isn’t. And I consider it part of my responsibility as president of the United States to fight against negative stereotypes of Islam wherever they appear.”
#20 “I also know that Islam has always been a part of America’s story.”

20 Quotes By Barack Obama About Christianity

#1 “Whatever we once were, we are no longer a Christian nation”
#2 “We do not consider ourselves a Christian nation.”
#3 “Which passages of scripture should guide our public policy? Should we go with Leviticus, which suggests slavery is OK and that eating shellfish is an abomination? Or we could go with Deuteronomy, which suggests stoning your child if he strays from the faith?”
#4 “Even those who claim the Bible’s inerrancy make distinctions between Scriptural edicts, sensing that some passages – the Ten Commandments, say, or a belief in Christ’s divinity – are central to Christian faith, while others are more culturally specific and may be modified to accommodate modern life.”
#5 “The American people intuitively understand this, which is why the majority of Catholics practice birth control and some of those opposed to gay marriage nevertheless are opposed to a Constitutional amendment to ban it. Religious leadership need not accept such wisdom in counseling their flocks, but they should recognize this wisdom in their politics.”
#6 From Obama’s book, The Audacity of Hope: “I am not willing to have the state deny American citizens a civil union that confers equivalent rights on such basic matters as hospital visitation or health insurance coverage simply because the people they love are of the same sex—nor am I willing to accept a reading of the Bible that considers an obscure line in Romans to be more defining of Christianity than the Sermon on the Mount.”
#7 Obama’s response when asked what his definition of sin is: “Being out of alignment with my values.”
#8 “If all it took was someone proclaiming I believe Jesus Christ and that he died for my sins, and that was all there was to it, people wouldn’t have to keep coming to church, would they.”
#9 “This is something that I’m sure I’d have serious debates with my fellow Christians about. I think that the difficult thing about any religion, including Christianity, is that at some level there is a call to evangelize and prostelytize. There’s the belief, certainly in some quarters, that people haven’t embraced Jesus Christ as their personal savior that they’re going to hell.”
#10 “I find it hard to believe that my God would consign four-fifths of the world to hell. I can’t imagine that my God would allow some little Hindu kid in India who never interacts with the Christian faith to somehow burn for all eternity. That’s just not part of my religious makeup.”
#11 “I don’t presume to have knowledge of what happens after I die. But I feel very strongly that whether the reward is in the here and now or in the hereafter, the aligning myself to my faith and my values is a good thing.”
#12 “I’ve said this before, and I know this raises questions in the minds of some evangelicals. I do not believe that my mother, who never formally embraced Christianity as far as I know … I do not believe she went to hell.”
#13 “Those opposed to abortion cannot simply invoke God’s will–they have to explain why abortion violates some principle that is accessible to people of all faiths.”
#14 On his support for civil unions for gay couples: “If people find that controversial then I would just refer them to the Sermon on the Mount.”
#15 “You got into these small towns in Pennsylvania and, like a lot of small towns in the Midwest, the jobs have been gone now for 25 years and nothing’s replaced them. And they fell through the Clinton Administration, and the Bush Administration, and each successive administration has said that somehow these communities are gonna regenerate and they have not. And it’s not surprising then they get bitter, they cling to guns or religion or antipathy to people who aren’t like them or anti-immigrant sentiment or anti-trade sentiment as a way to explain their frustrations.”
#16 “In our household, the Bible, the Koran and the Bhagavad Gita sat on the shelf alongside books of Greek and Norse and African mythology”
#17 “On Easter or Christmas Day, my mother might drag me to church, just as she dragged me to the Buddhist temple, the Chinese New Year celebration, the Shinto shrine, and ancient Hawaiian burial sites.”
#18 “we have Jews, Muslims, Hindus, atheists, agnostics, Buddhists, and their own path to grace is one that we have to revere and respect as much as our own”
#19 “All of us have a responsibility to work for the day when the mothers of Israelis and Palestinians can see their children grow up without fear; when the Holy Land of the three great faiths is the place of peace that God intended it to be; when Jerusalem is a secure and lasting home for Jews and Christians and Muslims, and a place for all of the children of Abraham to mingle peacefully together as in the story of Isra — (applause) — as in the story of Isra, when Moses, Jesus, and Mohammed, peace be upon them, joined in prayer. (Applause.)”
#20 “I believe that there are many paths to the same place, and that is a belief that there is a higher power, a belief that we are connected as a people.”

GOVERNMENT POWER - Obama's Well-oiled Machine

Obama hired these people in his administration including those in the IRS like Lois Lerner and they are doing everything they can to please Obama. There's not gonna be a smoking gun, but you don't need a smoking gun to know why this administration's doing what it's doing.

Obama puts people in positions that mirror him. Eric Holder, you name it, they're doing Obama's bidding. Everybody. Susan Rice and Samantha Power, they are Obama, and there's a context for what's happening. Herbert Meyer (from the Reagan Admininistration) asserted that essentially what's taking place in the United States right now is a coup (a putsch, or an overthrow, is the sudden deposition of a government, usually by a small group of the existing state establishment—typically the military—to depose the extant government and replace it with another body, civil or military), not a violent coup, and not a million artistic coup, but nevertheless a takeover of a government, and it's being done by the Obama administration. A well-oiled corrupt machine of governmental power!

OBAMA CHANGE - Barack Obama Delivers His Change to America


Barack Obama along with his greedy power hungry staff of corrupt politicians has led many crimes upon crimes while in office. Here is a list of crimes known of while Obama's been in office. There have been far more crimes committed under his administration that have not surfaced yet to the American people. Black Panther voter intimidation. RESULT - DOJ looked the other way, no charges filed, no prosecution.

Failing to label the Fort Hood shootings as a terrorist event. RESULT: Victims are denied Purple Heart benefits and many are hurting for money while the terrorist shooter Nidal Malik Hasan receives over $278,000 from the government in salary.


Running untracked guns into Mexico to gangs and drug cartels in the botched Fast & Furious gun running operation in an attempt to attack the Second Amendment. RESULT: Death of Border Patrol Agent Brian Terry and hundreds of Mexican citizens.


Denying help to Ambassador Stevens and his team at Benghazi. Choosing to fall asleep while they were under attack. RESULT: FOUR dead Americans

America will either survive this thrashing by Barack Obama or she will wither away and be but a mere memory. Are you willing to look your children and grand-children in the eye and say to them, "I wish I could have done more for your freedom?"

Benghazi Cover-up. Out of control czar appointments. Lavish vacations. ObamaCare. 

Apologizing for American exceptionalism. Bowing before our enemies. Insulting our friends. Advertising food stamps in foreign countries. Suing states for daring to exercise Constitutional state sovereignty.

Bankrupting the country by doubling the debt. Bypassing Congress and ignoring our system of checks and balances. Collection of DNA samples after any arrest regardless of whether you are actually charged with a crime. 

Race baiting. Pitting Americans against each other. Funding the Muslim Brotherhood with taxpayer dollars. Failing to call terrorism what it is.

Using the IRS as a political weapon to harass and intimidate Tea Party groups and conservatives. Attacking reporters for doing their jobs. Seizing phone records of the press. Seizing phone records of millions of innocent Americans. Rewarding liars, thieves, and crooks with prominent cabinet positions.

When will it stop???

UN-CLOSETED CHANGE - Gay Scouts of America?


The future of scouting is here— Gay Boy Scouts and adult volunteers wore their uniforms Sunday June 2nd 2013 as they marched in Utah's gay pride parade — defying a leader of the youth organization who had said they couldn't do so under the organization's guidelines prohibiting advocating political or social positions.
Peter Brownstein, a Scoutmaster in Salt Lake City who helped organize the Boy Scouts participation in the march, said a few adults and youth marched at the front of the parade in uniform, including a Cub Scout, a Boy Scout and his stepdad, an Eagle Scout, who borrowed a uniform to wear, and an Asst. Scoutmaster.



"Scouting was meant for a young man's journey into manhood not for a gay man's journey into their own agenda! I still don't know why gays are so bent on ruining every single organization in America for their own personal agenda! Why do boy scouts need to be labeled as "gay scouts" or even associated with gays? Scout Oath says it all— On my honor, I will do my best To do my duty to God and my country and to obey the Scout Law; To help other people at all times; To keep myself physically strong, mentally awake and morally straight. The LDS churches response is a great breakdown for what the Boy Scouts already stood for. There has never been discrimination towards scouts for their sexual orientation. Scouting was to be a focus on personal growth and morals, not for those who wish to have a spotlight placed upon them because of their sexual orientation."

For the past 100 years, The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints has enjoyed a strong relationship with the Boy Scouts of America, based on their mutual interest in helping boys and young men understand and live their duty to God and develop upright moral behavior. As the Church moves forward in its association with the Boy Scouts of America, Church leaders will continue to seek the most effective ways to address the diverse needs of young people in the United States and throughout the world.

The Church’s long-established policy for participation in activities is stated in the basic instructional handbook used by lay leaders of the Church: “young men … who agree to abide by Church standards” are “welcomed warmly and encouraged to participate” This policy applies to LDS Church-sponsored Scout units. Sexual orientation has not previously been—and is not now—a disqualifying factor for boys who want to join Latter-day Saint Scout troops. Willingness to abide by standards of behavior continues to be our compelling interest.

The Boy Scouts of America: An Organization for Boys Not for the Gay Agenda!

LIBERAL NATION - San Fernando's Porn Industry

Southern California is home to the Dodgers, the Lakers, ocean breezes, a very diverse environment full of many activities to do and also a large homeless population. With Hollywood nearby, California is home to many actors and actresses and their lavish lifestyles. Though if you're exclusively an actor in the San Fernando Valley you're also known as a porn star. San Fernando is the porn capital of the world! The porn industry is full of hippy democratic liberal idiots, so as you can imagine if you're watching porn, you're ultimately supporting a liberal's lifestyle. Only way to fix this is to stop watching porn. Liberals will eat, sleep-around and be merry for tomorrow they will surely die! Usually from an STD in one form or another. Here's an interesting read on Los Angeles's new condom law:

"Porn industry ponders new condom law in Los Angeles" The show must go on, is the entertainer's credo, and it did just that in the nation's Porn Capital even after Los Angeles County voted to require performers to use condoms when filming sex scenes. One of the industry's biggest stars, James Deen, reported for work, condom-free as usual, just hours after voters adopted the new law.

During a break in the action Thursday, however, Deen raised the same questions on the mind of everyone in LA's billion-dollar-plus porn industry: Can a planned court challenge get the new law tossed out before it is even implemented? Or, perhaps this time next year, will he be making films like "Atomic Vixens" and "Asian Fever Sex Objects" in some place like Las Vegas or Florida?
The law, listed on the ballot as Measure B, was passed by 56 percent of voters Tuesday. It won't take effect until election results are certified, which likely will be several more days. It could take months longer before county health officials decide how to enforce it and whether they must begin dispatching prophylactic police officers to keep a close eye on actors.

The Department of Public Health issued a terse statement with no timetable for developing an enforcement plan. There was no hint of whether there would be surprise inspections or if public employees would be paid to watch porn flicks to see if actors were complying.
The nation's adult entertainment industry, which is believed to generate as much as $7 billion a year in revenue, according to the trade publication Adult Video News, vigorously opposed the new law. It argued it is unneeded because of safeguards that include monthly venereal disease checks for all working actors.

They also maintained it would be costly and difficult to enforce and could drive the business out of Los Angeles' sprawling San Fernando Valley, taking with it as many as 10,000 jobs, including actors, directors, film editors and crafts and makeup people. The main problem, they say, is that fans don't want to see actors using condoms.

"The last time we attempted to go all condom, our industry lost sales by over 30 percent," said Deen. "That's a huge hit to our economy." Deen, who has appeared in more than 1,000 hardcore films over the past nine years and estimates he's been in about 4,000 sex scenes, said he's never been infected with any disease and he gets tested every two weeks.

"I love condoms, I think they're great and the safest thing you can do in engaging in sexual intercourse with a stranger," he said, adding he uses them in his personal life but not onscreen.
Industry officials, meanwhile, say the last reported case of HIV linked directly to work was in 2004. Since then, they add, about 300,000 films have been made.
Michael Weinstein, the nonprofit AIDS Healthcare Foundation's founder and president, disputes those figures, saying there have been other, more recent HIV infections, not to mention numerous cases of gonorrhea, chlamydia and other sexually transmitted diseases.
Weinstein, whose group led a petition campaign to place the measure on the ballot, says he plans to take his campaign statewide.

In the meantime, he says implementing and enforcing the new law should be easy. "This is no different than supervising restaurants or nail salons or barbershops," Weinstein said. "You fill out forms, you are granted a permit and, periodically, somebody goes out and does spot inspections."

Easy to implement or not, porn producers say the cost of paying for permits will likely be steep and the drop-off in sales could bankrupt them.

"Certainly this is the biggest threat that I've seen to the industry in a very, very long time," said Steven Hirsch, chief executive of Vivid Entertainment Group, one of the largest purveyors of porn films, including celebrity sex tapes and popular X-rated parodies of "Batman" and "Superman" films. "There have been obscenity prosecutions, but this is something on a whole different level."
Hirsch, who co-founded Vivid 28 years ago, said he is confident the industry will get the law overturned on the grounds it violates filmmakers' First Amendment rights of free expression.
If it isn't overturned, he said his company will simply move production out of Los Angeles County to survive.

Several people who attended an emergency meeting of the industry's advocacy group, the Free Speech Coalition, last week, said porn producers have already been in touch with officials in Las Vegas and parts of Florida. In some instances, they said, tax incentives have been offered to lure them.
Through a quirk in county law, the industry might even be able to pack up and move just a few miles down the freeway to Pasadena or Long Beach.

Those municipalities, although located in Los Angeles County, have their own health departments, and Pasadena said earlier this week it won't enforce the new law. That would be just fine for many actors and directors, who say they don't really want to leave their home base.

"People forget that porn people are people too," said Kylie Ireland, a veteran actress and director who has appeared in such films as "Being Porn Again" and "Californication.""They forget that we have families and we are married and we have kids and we have lives and jobs and hobbies just like everybody else."

WOMEN HAVE BECOME EXTREMELY LOUD AND INCREDIBLY IMPATIENT - You men don't have a chance especially you white men

Today's working world has been manipulated by women's rights movements and affirmative action in catering to minorities and women. Which has given men new competition in the working world. Society has encouraged these individual groups to rise above man almost to conquer him by success and ultimately putting him in his place where he belongs... at the bottom. Its almost like a karma for man's past chauvinistic ways, for his disrespect of women and minority groups. American society has made it difficult for a man to take care of his own family with just one income. This negative attitude towards men is destroying the family unit in his roll of a man and father. Men are not perfect in this new situation. Men have gotten really lazy and unfocused. Along with providing the necessary money for survival, men should be helping their spouses to name a few: in doing chores, in raising the kids and in helping them with their homework. Men should be finishing college to provide a somewhat comfortable lifestyle for their family. But society has made this somewhat impossible for this to work. Women should be supporting and encouraging him to become successful instead of condemning his actions as seen in this cartoon. This doesn't mean that women should just sit on the sidelines. The working woman is still an important roll in todays society, she is a vehicle of survival for the single mother, an advocate and female voice in society to give a different perspective on important topics than any man ever could. Though we should refocus as a society upon the roll of man. Each roll is important, women and men, wife and husband, mother and father. We should honor one another's roll and encourage growth, not damn or condemn one another. WHAT ARE YOUR THOUGHTS?
