Secret panel can put Americans on "kill list'

Bad cases make bad law.

(Reuters) - American militants like Anwar al-Awlaki are placed on a kill or capture list by a secretive panel of senior government officials, which then informs the president of its decisions, according to officials.
There is no public record of the operations or decisions of the panel, which is a subset of the White House's National Security Council, several current and former officials said. Neither is there any law establishing its existence or setting out the rules by which it is supposed to operate.  http://www.reuters.com/article/2011/10/05/us-cia-killlist-idUSTRE79475C20111005

Federal & Local Law Enforcement Agencies Try to Take Family Motel from Innocent Owners

Imagine you own a million-dollar piece of property free and clear, but then the federal government and local law enforcement agents announce that they are going to take it from you, not compensate you one dime, and then use the money they get from selling your land to pad their budgets—all this even though you have never so much as been accused of a crime, let alone convicted of one.http://www.libertariannews.org/2011/10/04/federal-local-law-enforcement-agencies-try-to-take-family-motel-from-innocent-owners/

The Day America Died

Another great Paul Craig Roberts piece.
http://lewrockwell.com/roberts/roberts328.html
 
September 30, 2011 was the day America was assassinated.
Some of us have watched this day approach and have warned of its coming, only to be greeted with boos and hisses from "patriots" who have come to regard the US Constitution as a device that coddles criminals and terrorists and gets in the way of the President who needs to act to keep us safe.

Facial recognition led officials to believe teen could be Robbie Romero

So much for facial recognition software!
Santa Fe police asked the Center for Missing and Exploited Children to use its facial recognition on a photo of a then seven-year-old Robbie Romero and 18-year-old Robert Terrazas.
According to the facial recognition Terrazas' eyebrows, ears, nose and lips all matched those of Robbie Romero.
Those results encouraged police to order a DNA test on Terrazas and Robbie's mom, Evelyn Romero.
The results came back negative.http://www.kob.com/article/stories/S2293151.shtml?cat=500

WASHINGTON • Most days, U.S. Customs and Border Protection Officer David Gasho sends three unmanned spy planes into the skies over the rugged Sonora Desert to hunt for drug smugglers crossing into southern Arizona from Mexico.
But in mid-June, as the largest wildfire in Arizona history raged, Gasho sent one of the Predator B drones soaring over residential neighborhoods in search of another threat — rogue brush fires. Working from an air-conditioned trailer, his crew aimed an airborne infrared camera through thick smoke and spotted a smoldering blaze.
