"By all accounts, Xynides is said to be a very good young man with no prior disciplinary actions noted by school administration," police said in a statement Friday. "Friends tell us he made a stupid mistake."
Several students said they didn't think the teenager meant to harm anyone and said they did not think he should be expelled.

[DailyMail] Texas police shot a man after he disarmed a potential church shooter who had been holding more than 100 people hostage in at a congregation in Amarillo.Joshua Len Jones, 35, barged into a church service at the Faith City Mission in Amarillo, on Valentine's Day and pulled out a gun.
Churchgoer Tony Garces managed to disarm Jones during a scuffle, but when police arrived, they shot Mr Garces instead.
The incident took place during a morning service at the Faith City Mission, a Christian organization which helps people in need in the community.
Jones, who had received help from the Faith City Mission in the past, held about 100 congregants and church staff hostage.
While waiting for police, church staff and attendees managed to overpower Jones, and during the fight, Mr Garces got hold of the gum
'I said 'hey, hey I got the gun,' Mr Garces told ABC7 Amarillo.
He described how officers ordered him to throw the gun to the floor, but that he hesitated as he was worried that the loaded gun would go off if he did so.
'I didn't want anyone else getting hurt. Then pop, pop they shot me.
'I went down, then a puddle of blood. I thought I was a goner.'
Mr Garces, who credits the Faith City Mission with helping him turn his life around after a four-year-stint in prison, was hit in the neck, but was rushed to hospital and survived.
He is now calling for police to receive more and improved training in use of deadly violence, telling ABC7 that the officer who shot him 'didn't know what he was doing'.
Jones was placed in durance vile Drop the heater, Studs, or you're hist'try! at the scene, and has been charged with six first-degree felony aggravated kidnapping.

Over the years we've militarized the police, seems that might not be the best approach.
Anyway, good on Tony Garces who seems like he's now an outstanding citizen despite earlier troubles. Even his response after being shot seems pretty level-headed.

Bend your knees and place the gun on the ground, slowly?

If worried about the gun going off when you drop it, hold the gun with two fingers by the end of the barrel as you put it down. Keep the other hand in the air. Step away from the weapon once it is down.

Well at issue seems to be the focus of the police training is no protecting themselves and not protecting the citizenry.
Same with these SWAT teams which by and large seem completely useless as they seem to dither and procrastinate in the face of danger and seem more interested in protecting themselves against casualties than confronting an armed threat.
More often than not the end of a violent armed threat has been a policeman going rogue and confronting the treat with armed force rather than some heavily equipped swat team with a lot of fancy toys.
Columbine was a good example of that and I still wonder where the SWAT teams were when Parkland went down.

Broward Sheriff's department seems to have weaponized liberalism and created a totally useless tax sucking sponge that hid crime while increasing it, left everyone unprotected when they were needed, and can't even properly shift the blame because they were so obvious about it all in front of neighboring law enforcement and EMTs.
[YourNewswire] Dr. Dean Lorich, an orthopedic surgeon who volunteered in Haiti and exposed Clinton Foundation corruption and malpractice on the island, has been found dead in New York. He was 54.
Dr. Lorich was found by his 11-year-old daughter on the bathroom floor of his tony Upper East Side apartment with a knife in his chest at around 1pm on Monday.
The knife missed the surgeon’s heart, leaving him to bleed out and be found by his daughter. Despite the fact police were called to the property regarding an "assault", they instantly registered the death as "suicide" and closed the case. Stabbed himself in the chest, he did.
One of the United States’ leading surgeons, Dr. Lorich was part of the relief effort sent by the U.S. to assist the relief effort led by the Clinton Foundation in Haiti after the devastating 2010 earthquake. However Dr. Lorich was disgusted by the "shameful" Clinton Foundation operation, and voiced his concerns to Hillary Clinton directly.
Unsatisfied with her response, he went public, writing an article published by CNN, accusing the Clinton Foundation of widespread corruption and malpractice in Haiti that cost the lives of thousands of children.
Billions of dollars were raised by the Clinton Foundation to help the Haitians, but the vast bulk of this money was funneled to Clinton friends and associates, according to Dr. Lorich, who described in harrowing detail what this meant for the children of Haiti.
Dr. Lorich argued that, in essence, Clinton greed left Haitian children to die painful deaths.
Considering billions of dollars had been donated to the Clinton Foundation with the express purpose of helping the Haitians, Dr Lorich and his team expected to have full support when their plane touched down. He fricked up. He trusted them.
Instead, Dr. Lorich described the situation on the ground as "shameful" and he witnessed Clinton Foundation corruption in action. The Haitians were receiving no help whatsoever. It was never about help. It was about enriching the Clintons and their cronies.
According to Dr. Lorich, a paltry 0.6% of donations granted by international donors to the Clinton Foundation with the express purpose of directly assisting Haitians actually ended up helping citizens of Haiti. 9.6% ended up with the Haitian government. The remaining 89.8% ‐ or $5.4 billion ‐ was funneled to non-Haitian organizations.
Unable to perform his duties ‐ and disgusted by the rampant corruption ‐ Dr. Lorich sent an email to then-Secretary of State Hillary Clinton’s Chief of Staff Cheryl D. Mills to report what he had seen. The email was then forwarded to Hillary Clinton which meant it eventually found its way into WikiLeaks’ possession and can be read here. Much more at the link.

Well he was an Ortho, not a Thoracic surgeon.
Now if he had stabbed himself in the foot it would be different.

[FoxNews] The specter of homeless encampments steadily expanding across the downtown streets of San Diego, Los Angeles and San Francisco – bringing with them a public health crisis – has one southern California community taking tough action to dismantle a two-mile-long camp just a short drive from Disneyland.
In a departure from the approach taken by other local governments in the state, officials in Orange County, Calif., have started to clear out the camp – by moving occupants and hauling away literally tons of trash and hazardous waste.
“It’s becoming part of the permanent landscape in those communities and there is no way we are going to allow Orange County land that is supposed to be used by residents to be occupied by the homeless,” said Todd Spitzer, who sits on the Orange County Board of Supervisors.
Trash trucks and contractors in hazmat gear have descended on the camp and so far removed 250 tons of trash, 1,100 pounds of human waste and 5,000 hypodermic needles.
But the effort hasn’t been without controversy as homeless advocates, the American Civil Liberties Union and a federal judge have all weighed in on the fate of some-700 people evicted from their home along the Santa Ana River -- next to Angel Stadium of Anaheim and a few miles from Disneyland, outside Los Angeles.
Spitzer, whose district includes the encampment, has battled the advocates since last fall when the decision was first made to close the camp. The ACLU and others filed a federal civil rights lawsuit to stop this and several stays have ensued until last week, when the final go-ahead was granted.
For those being evicted, a mediation with U.S. District Court Judge David Carter offered the choice of a bed in a shelter or a month-long motel voucher; medical aid; drug treatment; job training; storage for their belongings and housing for pets at the county animal shelter.
So far, 544 people have been moved to shelters and motel rooms and approximately 100 remain at the riverbed. Crews counted 207 tents, but it is unclear if they are occupied.
But one option is not negotiable – the homeless cannot move back to the Santa Ana River channel, which has paved shoulders where residents used to walk and bike. The river, which runs from the mountains to the sea, is home to much of Orange County’s groundwater and empties between pricey Newport and Huntington beaches. The beach has been closed often over the years due to high bacteria levels.
Approximately a half-million people in the United States are homeless, with California accounting for 25 percent -- the largest number of any state, according to a survey by the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development. Orange County has 4,792 homeless.
Spitzer blames the problem on two issues: legislation signed by Democratic Gov. Jerry Brown over the past several years that has eroded the penalties for drug use, possession and petty crimes to where police often don’t bother making arrests; and the change in a law so that treatment is no longer forced for drug abuse or mental health issues.

You can lead a horse to water, but you can't make him drink. You can't help someone who refuses to help themselves. There are programs, agencies public and private, to address the 'ills', but if the individual refuses to participate, there is no 'kind' solution.
If you can force a Christian baker to make a gay wedding cake, why can't you force the mentally ill back into those institutions you shut down in the 60s and 70s? I'm looking at you ACLU.

We don't have to wait on a long drawn out process of dealing with the Cal Coasties. We can renegotiate the Treaty of Guadalupe Hidalgo and return parts back to Mexico. Only takes 2/3rds of the Senate to ratify. Just think of all the looting the Mexican ruling caste could do to the rich parts, hiding behind walls and regulations.

SFO could end most of this disaster with a few strokes of a pen.
A major portion of the city and county budgets has been various homeless programs to feed, pamper, house, and encourage the homeless...it is somewhat north of $200 million the last time I checked...$200 freakingmillion in a city with a population of less than 350,000...

[AFRICANEWS] President Ismael Omar Guelleh’s ruling party claimed a resounding victory in Friday’s parliamentary elections in Djibouti, taking nearly 90 percent of seats after the opposition largely boycotted the poll.
Mohammed Abdallah Mahyoub, a senior member of Guelleh’s UMP party and campaign front man, said late Sunday the party had won 58 out of 65 parliamentary seats, an increase of three since the last vote in 2013.
There was no immediate figure for turnout among the tiny Horn of Africa nation’s 194,000 registered voters.
Guelleh has ruled Djibouti since 1999 and was last re-elected in 2016 with 87 percent of the vote.
The UMP’s victory has helped by the badly-divided opposition with two parties ‐ MRD and RADDE and a faction of a third party, ARD ‐ refusing to put forward any candidates, saying the elections would neither be fair nor transparent while others accused the election commission of bias.
The UMP claimed every seat outside of the capital and all but seven seats in Djibouti city with the remainder going to the UDJ party.
The law stipulates that 25 percent of seats must go to women, an increase from just 10 percent in the outgoing parliament. According to Mahyoub, this threshold was nearly met as 15 women won parliamentary seats, 14 of them from the UMP.

[AlAhram] The Egyptian cabinet on Monday approved the start of a four-month legalization process for the status of 53 unlicensed churches and affiliated buildings across the country.
"The cabinet decisions comes in light of the rights granted by the 2014 constitution to the followers of the Abrahamic religions to practice their religious rites at places of worship," a statement by the cabinet said.
Article 64 of the Egyptian constitution stipulates that the right to freedom of religious practice and to establish places of worship for the followers of the Abrahamic faiths: Islam, Christianity and Judaism.
In 2016, the government passed a law that speeds up the licensing process for building Christian houses of worship.
Prior to the 2016 law, the country's Christians, who make up an estimated 10 percent of the country's 100 million population, had long struggled to obtain building permits for churches, with the process often taking years.
In early January 2018, Egypt's Ministry of Housing issued an order to allow Christians to practice their religious rites at unlicensed churches pending the legalization of their status.
The ministry’s directives came after a mob of Moslems stormed a building in Giza’s Atfih saying Christians were conducting prayers at an unlicensed site.
A number of Christian worshippers were maimed during the attack and furniture destroyed.
Prime Minsiter Sherif Ismail had formed in January, 2017 a special committee to review pending church approval requests in order to address the issue.
Archpriest Antoun, a member of the PM's committee, said that the Coptic Orthodox Church had presented requests to formally recognise 2,600 churches and affiliated buildings in all Egyptian governorates by the end of September 2017.
Many Christian congregations have for years had to conduct prayers in unlicensed churches or in buildings that were not officially designated for religious use.

Abrahamic faiths: Islam, Christianity and Judaism.
Mohammed was not a descendent of Abraham via Ishmael. He was a Gentile. Therefore, Islam established by Mohammed is not an Abrahamic faith.
The Hadith claims Ishmael was the father of the Arabs. Untrue. Historical evidence indicates the Arabs existed before Ishmael was even born.
Islam claims Ishmael's wife was from Mecca. Not true. Ishmael's wife was from Egypt. Ishmael's descendants settled South of Judah near Egypt, no where near Mecca.
Every Abrahamic line of prophets were given their prophecies directly from God over 1500 years. However, Mohammed claimed his prophecy did not come from God, but from an angel, Gabriel.
The estimated time between Abraham and Mohammed described in the Koran is unrealistic in years.
ALL of the Biblical prophets were Jewish. The lies in the Koran and Hadith that try to tie Mohammed to Abraham is an attempt to give Mohammed and Islam legitimacy.
[AFRICANEWS] Morocco’s King Mohammed VI "successfully" underwent a heart operation in a Gay Paree clinic on Monday for an irregular heart beat, his medical team announced.
The doctors, in a statement, said the 54-year-old monarch had felt the symptoms on January 20.
"Radiofrequency ablation of the arrhythmia," or irregular rhythm, had successfully normalised his heart beat.
King Mohammed, who would resume his normal activities after a period of rest prescribed by his doctors, has ruled Morocco since the death of his father Hassan in July 1999.
He underwent an eye operation in the French capital last September.

AH - agree 100% that a coronary block can be deadly but one's risk of that does not increase with AF - at least according to what I've read.
Warfarin is cheap as you've poined out but the drawback is weekly tests to make sure you're not at risk of bleeding out...Warfarin use has to be tightly controlled.
One good point is that it is completely reversible ... not so with some other anti-coagulants. Their benefit is that one does not require weekly blood tests and there is no restriction on diet to reduce Vit. K consumption.
[AFRICANEWS] At least six people were killed in an overnight attack on Kagabi in the Kabare territory of South Kivu province, with a possibility of the corpse count reaching 10.
According to the information received by Africanews correspondent in the region, the attack started at about 8pm in this village not far from the town of Bukavu.
Sources told Africanews that the attack started at a small market located near a Catholic church in the area.
The attackers reportedly raided a coffee shop and demanded money from the patrons there. Those who resisted were slaughtered including a police officer who tried to intervene.
The assailants then went to the church where they killed a parish priest.
The attack comes at a time when the city of Bukavu is experiencing a precarious calm after weeks of attacks by gunnies who killed and maimed many.

[AFRICANEWS] At least five Congolese refugees were killed and 20 injured at a camp in Rwanda when a protest over a cut in food rations turned violent, Rwandan police said on Friday. Seven policemen were also injured. Yep. That'll learn 'em!
Around 3,000 refugees had camped outside United Nations offices at the camp since Tuesday. On Thursday, police tried to disperse them using teargas, police spokesman Theos Badege told state radio.
“We used force … yesterday afternoon after warning that security forces would be used,” he said.
“They started pelting stones, pieces of metal and in that 20 refugees were injured and seven police officers. Five of the refugees died.”
Fifteen refugees were arrested, the police said on their Twitter account. They said there were about 500 protesters, while UNHCR put the figure at about 700.
The refugees from neighbouring Democratic Republic of Congo had left their camp in Kiziba and walked 15 km (10 miles) to Karongi, in western Rwanda, to protest against a 25 percent cut implemented last month in rations provided by the U.N. refugee agency (UNHCR). The camp houses 17,000 Congolese.

[DAWN] A North Korean envoy making a rare visit to South Korea said on Sunday that his country was willing to open talks with the United States, a rare step towards diplomacy between enemies after a year of North Korean missile and nuclear tests and direct threats of war from both Pyongyang and Washington.
Kim Yong Chol, who Seoul believes criminal masterminded two attacks in 2010 that killed 50 South Koreans, was in South Korea for the end of the Olympics. He said North Korean leader Kim Pudge Jong-un ...the overweight, pouty-looking hereditary potentate of North Korea. Pudge appears to believe in his own divinity, but has yet to produce any loaves and fishes, so his subjects remain malnourished... wanted to improve ties with Washington and had "ample intentions of holding talks" with its rival, according to the South’s presidential office.
He made the remarks during a meeting with South Korean President Moon Jae-in, who is eager to engage the North after one of the most hostile periods in recent years on the Korean Peninsula.
Moon, who was invited a day after the opening ceremonies to Pyongyang for a summit with Kim Jong-un, also said that Washington and Pyongyang should quickly meet to "fundamentally solve" the standoff on the Korean Peninsula.

Another reason is North Korea stole our op plans and realized what we are capable of:
[DailyCaller] A Texas Antifa student group hosted a six month health program to "politicize" students with "mental illnesses," according to a Thursday report.
The Revolutionary Student Front at the University of Texas at Austin hosted a "Revolutionary Mental Health Program" "to address the mental health needs of students in a way that would primarily serve to politicize and strengthen them, to become more committed to revolution and more capable of carrying it out," reported Far Left Watch.
The UT Austin Antifa student group based its 2017 program on "Turn Illness Into A Weapon," a book charting the neo-Marxist Socialist Patients Collective group’s actions in Germany, which placed the blame of mental illness on capitalist oppression.
The Revolutionary Student Front sought to create a health care system that not only treated students for their mental illnesses, but also mobilized them to fight capitalism.
"The primary method of combating the symptoms of mental illness that we face under capitalism must be organizing those suffering to come into violent class conflict with the system that creates their illness," said the group in its 13,000-word manifesto.
The group also admits at one point that members of its own leadership suffer from "mental illnesses."
Revolutionary Student Front hosts weekly "self-defense" classes and believes "bricks belong best thrown at pig heads."
[DAWN] A man fled from Mir Mohammad village in Tando Adam after killing his wife and sister for 'honour', police said on Monday.
Assistant Superintendent of Police (ASP) Taluka Tando Adam Hasan Jahangir told news hounds that the police were conducting raids to arrest the suspect.
The bodies of both women have been sent to Taluka Hospital Tando Adam for post-mortem examination, ASP Jahangir added.
The victims, according to police, had last week run away from the village to Sukkar allegedly with two men, who belonged to Mir Mohammad village as well. They were tracked down on Sunday, after which elders of the village handed them over to their suspected murderer after he promised that he would not harm them.

[DAWN] The Federal Investigation Agency (FIA) on Monday jugged Drop the heater, Studs, or you're hist'try! Axact Chief Executive Officer (CEO) Shoaib Sheikh after the Sindh High Court (SHC) accepted the agency's appeal against his earlier acquittal in a money laundering case.
Setting aside an earlier decision by a district and sessions court, the SHC ordered that the case be heard again by a trial court. The district and sessions court had acquitted Sheikh in the case in 2016.
Following the acceptance of its appeal, FIA officials had set up pickets at the court's exits to arrest Sheikh.
The Axact chief, along with his lawyers, had holed up inside the court's premises for several hours to avoid arrest. His counsels had meanwhile insisted that the court had not ordered for Sheikh's arrest and that he should be given time to approach a court for bail.
During this period, Sheikh had also applied for interim bail, arguing that the FIA should be barred from arresting him. The Axact chief had assured the court that he was ready to face trial in the lower courts, but the court turned down the plea.

[Arab News] RIYADH: Wide-ranging talks in Kuala Lumpur between Saudi Arabia's King Salman and Malaysian Prime Minister Najib Razak have stressed the need to find solutions to the crises in Syria and Yemen, as well as the Israeli-Palestinian conflict.
The two countries also announced the establishment of an international center for peace and harmony that will carry the name "King Salman Center for Global Peace."
In a joint statement released on Wednesday, the two countries reiterated the urgent need to find solutions to the conflicts in the Middle East, and expressed concern over "the growing Iranian interference in the internal affairs of the Arab countries."
The joint statement covers political, commercial and cultural issues that were discussed during King Salman's four-day visit to Malaysia.
Regarding the proposed King Salman Center for Global Peace in Malaysia, the statement named the stakeholders in the project, which are: The Saudi Ministry of Defense, the Center for Security and Defense at the Malaysian Ministry of Defense, the Malaysian University of Islamic Sciences and the Makkah-based Muslim World League (MWL).
"These bodies shall coordinate to complete the necessary arrangements to implement the launch of the center within 90 days from the date of its announcement," said the statement.
The statement also said that Saudi Arabia and Malaysia have identical views on key issues in the Middle East region.
"Within the constructive spirit that prevailed at the meetings between the two sides, the two leaders reviewed political issues in the Middle East, particularly the Palestinian cause, and stressed the importance and need to achieve a lasting, comprehensive and just solution, in accordance with the Arab Peace Initiative and relevant UN resolutions," the statement said.
The two sides also reaffirmed the need to "find a solution to the Syrian crisis on the basis of UN Security Council Resolution 2254 and the importance of providing humanitarian assistance and relief to Syrian refugees in Syria and abroad."
The two sides also stressed the importance of maintaining the unity of Yemen, and of achieving its security and stability, as well as the importance of coming up with a political solution to the Yemeni crisis, based on the Gulf initiative, outputs of the Yemeni national dialogue and UN Security Council Resolution 2216.
The statement said that the Kingdom and Malaysia "lend all support to the legitimate authority in Yemen, and to the efforts exerted in this regard, as well as facilitating access of aid to all regions of Yemen."
The two countries expressed deep concern about Iranian interference in the internal affairs of countries in the region, emphasizing "the need for Iran to commit to the principle of good neighborliness and respect for the sovereignty of states."
In the field of defense cooperation, the statement said: "The two sides agreed to strengthen military cooperation, develop training and joint exercises and exchange military experience."
The Kingdom and Malaysia have been on the same page over the need to address common security issues, including those posed by Daesh and other terrorist groups.
Malaysia and Saudi Arabia share a strong commitment to countering extremist ideologies and misconceptions about Islam, which are contrary to the moderate and peaceful nature of this world religion. Pertinent to the Vienna meeting article.

[ENGLISH.ALARABIYA.NET] The Philippines Police Criminal Investigation and Detection Group (CIDG) is on the hunt for the recruiting company of Joanna Demafelis, the Filipina worker whose body was found in a freezer in Kuwait early February.
The Philippines’ President Rodrigo Duterte had ordered the arrest of those who recruited Demafelis, and to place them under investigation to make sure her contract was fair according to the law.
The Filipina, who went missing two years before her body was found, was recruited by the Our Lady of Mt Carmel Global E-Human Resources Incorporated company, whose license has been revoked since the incident, according to the Rappler news site.
"The CIDG's effort is ongoing to look for the recruiters of Demafelis. CIDG already has a lead," the news site reported the Philippine National Police’s Director General Ronald dela Rosa as saying.
The police’s efforts are an addition to ongoing investigations by the country’s Department of Labor and Employment and the national Bureau of Investigation.
The woman’s body was returned to the Philippines on February 17 in the presence of hundreds of relatives and supporters.
Her employers, and the main suspects in the case, were tossed in the clink Drop the heater, Studs, or you're hist'try! in Syria on Saturday according to a Lebanese judicial official.

[ChicagoTribune] The young people of Black Lives Matter are hurt. And they have every right to be.
When they were protesting in the streets of cities across America, much of the country didn't bother to listen to their message. They were not embraced by the mainstream for their bravery, their determination or resolve to bring attention to reckless police killings that disproportionately impact young African-Americans.
Some labeled them troublemakers, even terrorists. And in the aftermath of the student uprising over the mass shooting in Parkland, Fla., they are taking to social media to vent their disappointment.
