A video is going viral on Facebook showing an off-duty Los Angeles police officer pulling out a gun and firing as he struggles to arrest an unarmed boy who appears to be about 14.
The incident took place Tuesday in Anaheim, which is in Orange County, so the cop was completely out of his jurisdiction.
The student being arrested can be heard saying he is not even sure the man is a cop and the students witnessing the arrest are also not sure. Some are even saying they have called police.

The rebellion against Trump-led capitalism is just getting started. Could the Obama presidency have brought out this many people to oppose the bipartisan predatory consensus?

To understand the west’s inanity over the ‘Ukraine issue’, one must examine the founding and break-up of Yugoslavia.
In 1918 The Kingdom of Kingdom of Serbs, Croats, and Slovenes formed in the Balkans. It was an attempt to create a young state from the ashes of war and centuries of foreign occupation. In 1929 this became the Kingdom of Yugoslavia and after 1945, the partisans who fought valiantly and bravely against fascism formed the Socialist Federative Republic of Yugoslavia.

Nunes: Masterminding the GOP PutinGate coverupDevin Nunes' Central Valley House seat is pretty safely Republican-- but not nearly as safe as it was when he was first elected in 2002. The PVI is still rated a daunting R+10 but the demographics have shifted precipitously. Only 41.9% of Nunes' constituents are white now and one day-- who knows?-- the DCCC might decide to target him. They should. Nunes shouldn't be given any more free rides.

(ANTIMEDIA) Officials were warned twelve years in advance about potential safety hazards at the Oroville Dam in Butte County, California, which now faces the risk of flooding nearby residential areas as a result of a broken spillway and increased rainfall.
Local outlet Mercury News reports:

It appears President Donald Trump was once again right on target when talking about America’s aging infrastructure and facilities.
On Tuesday last week a huge hole formed in the spillway of the Oroville Dam, which is the nation’s tallest, and California’s second largest reservoir.
The dam’s emergency spillway was then put into use for the first time in 50 years. Due to severe erosion, officials are not sure it will be able to hold and are now urging residents in low-lying areas to leave, BNO News reports.

The name of this California assemblyman is Marc Levine, he’s a Democrat, and the title of his bizarre legislation is the “Pravda Act of 2017.” The word “Pravda” means ‘truth’ in Russian.
While appearing on Carlson’s show on Monday, Levine argued that students in his state “need to understand Russian interference in the 2016 election and its impacts on foreign policy.”
