wow. 124 officers of the London Metropolitan Police lined up two-deep around the Ecuadorean Embassy. streets and sidewalks blocked off so that Assange, Editor of wiki-leaks, can't be spirited out of his tiny closet after all these years. Of course he has NOT yet actually been indicted for any crime in any country. Yet 24 hours a day, seven days a week there are never fewer than one hundred officers surrounding the embassy backed up by riot control units and assault vehicles stationed a few blocks away.

Besides being thought to have participated in unprotected sex with hookers, he isn't charged with anything.

I don't think we should get rid of that flag.
Textbooks teaching that the USA was committing war crimes against the country of Viet Nam is satisfactory to me.
I don't believe in white washing history.

David Steiner, 42, and his wife, Ornella Steinner, 51, died during a hike in hellish heat at White Sands National Monument. But as their water supply quickly dwindled, the Steiners gave their son two sips of water for each one they took, likely saving his life.

The boy was dehydrated but in remarkably good shape when he was found alongside his dead father on a trail, Otero County Sheriff Benny House said.

The father and son were found Tuesday about an hour after park rangers found the mother dead.

Been following this. Really sad when law enforcement breaks the law.
Just shows you can't trust anybody, especially a lawyer, especially a lawyer with cops in his pocket.
Power corrupts.

Yeah, its more than stealing an apple or not paying for the donut.

some down and out guy steals metal irrigation pipe at a remote farm and sells it for pennies on the dollar and suddenly its war on all scrappers.

though I must admit, I've heard rumors about the Modesto police department for YEARS.

Park is only 10 acres

It's noon, it's 101, let's take a stroll
in the desert with enough water
for about 20min. I did something
really stupid like that when I was
18, not 51 like this guy. I decided
to swim across the river, which
was far wider than I thought. I
got halfway across and realized
I was in trouble and barely made
it back. I probably would have
drowned if I hadn't wised up.

I guarantee there was a point where
the dad realized this was an unwise
thing to do, and it would have saved
them to turn back. But people get
stupid. Clint said it best:
