[Iran Press TV] The system in the United States "must be tossed to achieve justice for African Americans," African American writer and journalist Abayomi Azikiwe says. Detroit organizer of the Workers World Party and editor of the Pan-African Newswire
The Workers World Party is a revolutionary Marxist–Leninist-Trotskyist political party in the United States founded in 1959 by a group led by Sam Marcy of the Socialist Workers Party.
Azikiwe, an editor at the Pan-African News Wire, made the remarks in an interview with Press TV on Thursday while commenting on a statement by US President Joe The Big Guy Biden ...46th president of the U.S. I'm not working for you. Don't be such a horse's ass. Don't say he didn't warn us... who said the verdict that found the three white men charged in the death of African American Ahmaud Arbery guilty of multiple counts of murder was not enough.
"While the guilty verdicts reflect our justice system doing its job, that alone is not enough. Instead, we must recommit ourselves to building a future of unity and shared strength, where no one fears violence because of the color of their skin," Biden said in a statement.
He said his administration "will continue to do the hard work to ensure that equal justice under law is not just a phrase emblazoned in stone above the Supreme Court ...the political football known as The Highest Court in the Land, home of penumbrae and emanations... , but a reality for all Americans."
On Wednesday, all three white men charged in the killing of Arbery, an unarmed 25-year-old Black Moslem man, were convicted of murder by a jury in the state of Georgia.
All three defendants were convicted of murder, aggravated assault, false imprisonment and criminal intent to commit a felony. They face a minimum sentence of life in prison with the possibility of parole.
Travis McMichael, 35, who fatally shot Arbery, was convicted on all nine charges, including malice, murder and four counts of felony murder.
McMichael's father, Gregory McMichael, 65, was convicted on the remaining charges, including the felony murder counts. McMichael's neighbor, William "Roddie" Bryan, was also found guilty of three of the felony murder counts.
Prosecutors have said that they intend to seek life in prison without parole for the three defendants.

.....said the verdict that found the three white men charged in the death of African American Ahmaud Arbery guilty of multiple counts of murder was not enough.
Of course it is "not enough." Nothing is enough. Nothing will ever be enough until the colonial oppressors are imprisoned or driven out.

Wiki: Press TV is state-funded and is a division of the Islamic Republic of Iran Broadcasting (IRIB), the only organisation legally able to transmit radio and television broadcasts inside Iran. Based in Tehran, it broadcasts to North America, Europe, the Middle East, Asia, areas of Africa and Latin America. IRIB's head is appointed directly by the supreme leader, Ayatollah Ali Khamenei; according to The Guardian, it is close to the country's conservative political faction, especially the Revolutionary Guards.

Where is the 'justice' for Africans in Africa? Most of it has been decolonized for three generations, what is your excuse now? Or is blaming everything and everyone else for your failures your only game?

Arguably the current system is all that is keeping inner city yutes from summary execution by an enraged citizenry.

The dark areas of Chicago were created by Mayor Daily to keep them from messing up the White SOX side of the expressway. Just another Demoncrat task!

Any "Game", which places the "Players" in charge of "off playing field action" is no longer a "Field for Competition" but rather a "Venue for Coercion".

They weren't fans of his in the first place. She was calling him a crybaby as they left.

The B.1.1.529 variant has a 'very unusual constellation' of mutations and may be more resistant to the vaccine
Likely to be officially named Nu, variant might evade the body's immune response and be more transmissible
There are currently 77 confirmed cases in South Africa, four in Botswana, one in Hong Kong and one in Israel
However, the real numbers are likely much higher as health authorities establish the full scale of the spread
Britain, Israel, Singapore, Germany and Ital are among increasing countries to block flights from South Africa
There are no direct flights to US from any of the countries except South Africa. Early Friday morning, the CDC still listed South Africa as 'Level 1: Low Level of COVID-19' on the country's travel advice page

market was overdue to correct, though it currently isn't there yet. COVID is more the sort of excuse Wall Street wants as opposed to trade war or hot war with China.

The 'emergency' is permanent. Never going away. Anything we agree to now we are agreeing to do for the rest of our lives.

Of course there is, there will always be another variant. We're done with Covid lock down BS. No more face diaper mandates. I probably had covid in march of 2020, it was nothing compared to the damn norovirus my daughter gave the rest of us last weekend. That was BAD! Especially since I had just reached my hotel in Ohio.
At this point, I don't believe anything the government or press says as they have simply lied too much.
[GatewayPundit] BLUF: Doctors are intimidated into refusing to prescribe Ivermectin, and pharmacists are not permitted by their companies to fill it, even though it worked beautifully in this case. I’m confused as to why retired Marine Bill Salier and his wife are suing only WalMart and not also the other pharmacy he approached to fill his Ivermectin prescription, as well as Minnesota Department of Health and the Osage, Iowa Mercy clinic for refusing to dispense monoclonal antibodies to him and his wife. Thank goodness they correctly calculated the dosage of the veterinary version of Ivermectin.

Maybe the doc needs to just carry the med's in the office like a number of doctors do for practice specific med's. Not covered by Insurance, but available.
Concerned not only for himself but for his wife about to slip into the pain and suffering of the virus, he remembered a contact to Steve Deace, a national talk show host working with the Blaze radio network. From there, Deace put Salier in touch with Dr. Mollie James. Dr. James has been a COVID whistleblower trying to bring the public’s attention to the politicized nature of specific medical treatments: that life-saving affordable drugs exist to stop the effects of COVID and can also turn the tide in dying patients to bring them back from the abyss.
Dr. James diagnosed that Bill was in severe distress, but that wife Karla was also at great risk. She prescribed Ivermectin for both of them and Hydroxychloroquine for Bill.
So even if the prescribing doctor had the stuff in her office, her office is in New York City while the patient is in Iowa.
From a WWII archeological group in eastern Europe, mainly in Latvia By Steve Newman and Hans Sogndal-Valeskog
[LegendaArcheology] Of course digging on wartime fields is an inherently dangerous thing to do and live ordnance litters the fields and forests and needs to be handled with care and by experts.
Latvian Police and Explosive Ordnance Disposal (EOD) are usually on site with us for major expeditions or come out to us if called, but its fair to say on pretty much every occasion live ordnance will be found.
Certain types of shell are far more dangerous than others and EOD will look at each one, where it is, how it is lying and decide whether to recover or destroy on site. We have often been called in to use our detectors to help find ordnance on sites such as school fields or building sites where a controlled recovery or disposal is far safer than a JCB hitting something during construction.
The group also finds many examples of unusual or unique items of dangerous ordnance. When these are collected by EOD and taken away for defusing many of the items will end up with the Latvian Army EOD Training School where examples of items built to kill can be used now to educate and can help save lives.
Relics of course are widely scattered still, although recently more interest in detecting has started to reduce the amount of easily recoverable items. Ask any of our group what is the best find they could make and all will answer ‘something that gives a missing soldier his identity back’, but most relics are not with soldiers or graves.
As explained above the reason we search general areas with a metal detector is that every now and again a relic helmet or rifle can still be with the soldier lying just a few inches under the ground, or a chance find can lead to a mass burial or field cemetery but most times items we find were just discarded and classed simply as useless war junk but other times unusual finds can be made.
Detecting though on hard fought battlefields is tough going. You have to unlearn everything you ever knew from detecting on peaceful fields in the UK countryside. Thousands of pieces of shrapnel litter every field, small Russian PPSH-41 machine gun cartridge cases are everywhere and the joke is there isn’t a single field in Latvia that doesn’t have some… and if there is we are yet to find it!
However, amongst the thousands of pieces of debris interesting things do still lie about. Many items by law have to be handed in to the local authorities, others we loan or donate to museums a few are kept by the group for its education and museum purposes but much goes for scrap being beyond recognition or interest.
Over the past 20 years the group has recovered some 20,000 soldiers, all are now buried in their national cemeteries or returned home to family plots. There are still tens of thousands more to find and across the whole Eastern Front, millions.
How long will it continue for, well for all of us as long as we are physically able too but time is against us as ground conditions eat away at ID tags, and legends and memories are lost and fade away, so at some point in the future only the ghosts will remain.
A multi-volume chronology and reference guide set detailing three years of the Mexican Drug War between 2010 and 2012.
Rantburg.com and borderlandbeat.com correspondent and author Chris Covert presents his first non-fiction work detailing
the drug and gang related violence in Mexico.
Chris gives us Mexican press dispatches of drug and gang war violence
over three years, presented in a multi volume set intended to chronicle the death, violence and mayhem which has
dominated Mexico for six years.
Rantburg was assembled from recycled algorithms in the United States of America. No
trees were destroyed in the production of this weblog. We did hurt some, though. Sorry.
