BLACK MAN WHO TORTURED, EXECUTED TWO WHITE TEENS MAKES ‘BLACK LIVES MATTER’ SPEECH AT SENTENCING

The Citizen Media

At the sentencing hearing on Wednesday for the torture and execution of two white teenage boys by two Black men one of the convicted killers made a ‘Black lives matter’ speech to the judge which he finished by doing the ‘hands up don’t shoot, Black lives matter’ shtick.

Fredrick Young made his speech after listening to impact statements by the victims’ families:

“I’d like to say sorry to the families of Aiyana Jones, Michael Brown, Eric Garner and I want to apologize to them for not being able to get justice for their loved ones who were murdered in cold blood. And in respect for the peaceful protest I want to say hands up, don’t shoot, black lives matter. That’s it your honor.”

Air Drop of Poison Kills Endangered Birds

New Zealand conservation groups slammed the government’s use of a pesticide, which the campaigners say may have virtually wiped out a group of endangered birds.

The Department of Conservation dropped more than 900 tons of toxic sodium fluoroacetate late last year across parts of the South Island, including Kahurangi National Park.

The pesticide, known commercially as 1080, was intended to wipe out invasive pests such as possums, stoats and rats that threaten native species.

Anti-1080 campaigners say the drop “exterminated” part of a rare population of rock wrens, which are the country’s only true alpine birds.

The Department of Conservation claims heavy snowfall could be behind the disappearance of the birds.

Environmentalists called that claim “ludicrous,” pointing out the alpine birds frequently encounter such snowfall.

“The use of 1080 is inhumane and is an indiscriminate poison banned in most of the world,” said…

Fast food meal remains unchanged after two years sitting on counter; bugs and fungi avoid toxic, junk food

The Citizen Media

(NaturalNews) Here’s a story to file in the “gross” category.

For two years, a McDonald’s cheeseburger and fries, along with a Taco Bell soft shell chicken taco, have sat on display, unwrapped and uneaten. That’s not the big deal. The eye-opening shocker is that 24 months later, they still look as fresh-from-the-kitchen as they did the day they were served. Even more disturbing, bugs won’t even go near the junk food.

Wayne State University Assistant professor of food science Yafan Zhang says that the ability for this food to look the same today as it did two years ago is due to a not-so-surprising fact: they’re laden with preservatives.

Most health-conscious people are aware that fresh, quality food will show signs of spoiling within a specific time frame. Lettuce wilts; apples brown and soften; cucumbers can become moldy. Foods laden with preservatives, on the other hand, are designed to last…

Important Action – Petition To The Government Of Canada Requesting Mandatory Risk Assessment For Animal Abuse

heatherclemenceau

Two Children Teasing a Cat
Annibale Carracci
(Italian, Bologna 1560–1609 Rome)
Why do some people pull the wings off butterflies, toss firecrackers at cats, shoot the neighbours’ dogs with BB guns (or torture cats with crayfish)? The Dark Triad consists of three personality characteristics—narcissism, Machiavellianism, and psychopathy. You can see it in the painting. Look at the little girl’s smile as she watches the boy torture the cat with a crayfish.

Written by:  Heather Clemenceau

Animal abuse is typically due to the inadequate protection of animals, along with social and cultural factors. Many psychologists and anthro-zoologists argue that animal cruelty is a good predictor of later violence against humans. Therefore, we must address the important psychological and social/cultural issues and make cruelty to animals target of intervention so that we can learn more about the etiology of human cruelty.

While animals deserve their own Bill of Rights, many crimes against…

Editorial calls for more jobs for polar bear biologists

polarbearscience

An editorialin the Edmonton Journal this morning (“Stand on guard for polar bears”) takes a most extraordinary position: that the results of two recent papers of dubious value should motivate Canada to create more jobs for polar bear biologists, “protect” the Canadian Arctic Archipelago (from what, they don’t say), and galvanize Canada’s position with respect to curtailing carbon dioxide emissions. In that order.

Edmonton Journal editorial photo 22 January 2015. Munich Zoo bears.

First, the unnamed editors¹ say: “This country needs more eyes and ears monitoring the health, numbers and locations of its polar bear populations.”

Why would they come to that conclusion? They quote University of Alberta’s Andrew Derocher (who supervises a number of students doing polar bear research in Western Hudson Bay):

“If Canada was doing the right thing, we’d have extensive monitoring,” University of Alberta polar bear researcher Andrew Derocher said to…

BORN FREE: Please forward copy below and Tell U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service that You Support “Threatened” Listing For African Lions

STOP ANIMAL ABUSE

PLEASE COULD YOU ALL FIND THE TIME TO COPY THE FOLLOWING TEXT IN RED & FORWARD IT ON TO USFWS; TO HELP PROTECT THE LIONS.

Dear Julie,

I have good news for the lions, but they still need your help! In October, the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service (USFWS) issued a proposed rule concerning the fate of African lions. In response to a petition submitted by Born Free USA and other animal protection organizations back in 2011, USFWS proposed listing African lions as “threatened” under the U.S. Endangered Species Act.

Although not the “endangered” listing we requested, the threatened status will be accompanied by a special rule requiring a permit for any importation of sport-hunted lion trophies—which should only be issued for lions originating from countries with a scientifically sound management plan for the species. Born Free, of course, wants to see no sport hunting of lions. But, if it’s…

Why Animals Deserve to Keep Their Fur (and Skin) | One Green Planet

Life or Lunch?

What belongs to us? We’d like to think that whatever we purchase, whatever is directly within our possession, is what we own. This kind of ownership is situated by the legal society we live in – if I am legally entitled to something, the government would presumably protect my claim to that object. If my car is stolen from me, through the legal system of my state, I can charge the thief for infringing upon my rights of property. If someone breaks into my house when I am away, I am legally entitled to demand some sort of retribution for it. It seems, in legal and common terms, that what belongs to us is clearly laid out by the society we inhabit. That is, until we talk about animals.

Do we own our bodies?

The ownership of part of ourselves or other rational beings is much less clear than the…
