  1. It is no surprise that no one in Washington wants to fix the immigration problem. Republican or Democrat.

    If they wanted to fix the problem it would be easy as imposing very stiff fines for employing these illegal immigrants, and enforcing the laws already passed. Seriously, Big Business and employers are making record profits employing these workers at cheap wages, without benefits. Were we to pass legislation making these millions of illegals US citizens; we would drive up the unemployment rate sky high, because a legal citizen requires minimum wage plus benefits. So if we made these uncounted millions citizens, we would then have to allow additional millions into the country to replace them as Big Businesses cheap labor force. Then begin the process over and over again until the US is overpopulated.

    Impose very stiff fines for every illegal worker caught working. Stop giving welfare benefits to noncitizens. Impose fines for anyone renting property to illegals. No free public education for non-citizens. No driver's licenses. Break the law, go to jail serve your sentence then get deported.

    What does this make America look like? Just like every other country in the world.

  2. CHARLOTTE, N.C. -- Charlotte police say a pizza restaurant employee used his own handgun to shoot and kill one of three armed robbers holding up the store.

    The Charlotte-Mecklenburg Police Department said it happened early Sunday at a Pizza Hut restaurant near Interstate 85 in west Charlotte. Detectives say the restaurant was closed and there were no customers inside.

    Police say their initial investigation indicates three people entered the restaurant around 1:40 a.m. Sunday and were in the process of robbing it when one of the employees used his personal handgun to shoot one male thief. 

    A police statement Sunday night identified the person shot and killed as 28-year-old Michael Renard Grace. Police told CBS affiliate WBTV Grace was carrying a gun when he was shot and they recovered the weapon at the scene.

    In a statement released to WBTV, PizzaHut said the local franchisee is cooperating with the police department but they “want to stress that the security of its staff is of the utmost concern.”

    The employee involved in the shooting has been placed on a leave of absence following further review, the statement said.

    The two other suspects ran away and haven’t been captured.

  3. As Clinton claims: She has done 30 years of government service and accomplished - ZERO.

    She resigned in shame as Secretary of State & look at our foreign relations nightmare now!

    Talk about all talk & no action!

    Nope, Clinton is under investigation yet again! Look at the Clinton Foundation; taking in millions yet in 2005 they only paid out 6% to charity. Worse than the Wounded Warrior Foundation.

    Of the 4 running for President - Clinton does not even make my list of the top 3. To put it blankly - she sucks!

  4. I concur, I just wish Trump would rein in his outlandish remarks.

    I support & will vote for Trump because I realize that while she may not raise taxes on the Middle Class this election year - it will surely come the following years. She may talk about taxing the rich, but loopholes will prevent their paying more. I can not stand the idea of a 65% inheritance tax. The government collecting after one's death is insane. Of course all the wealthy are protected having all their major assets in Corporations. We need to close the borders & make immigration work as it should. Deportation of the millions may not be practical but no magic pathway to citizenship should ever happen.

  5. My feeling is; If black lives really matter - why does white on black killings matter when black on black killings do not?

    The end result is still the same; A black life is lost.

    Why is it racist to say "White lives Matter" but not "Black lives Matter"?????????? BLM even objects to "All lives Matter".

    Recently I read that in some colleges they are segregating black students with only other black students in black only dorms. Imagine the outrage if whites did that exact same thing? We corrected segregation mistake decades ago, only to turn around and allow it again!

    I just want America to wake-up and see that allowing one race to segregate, say certain words, give them special treatment, but not allow other races to do the exact same things is discrimination. Yes, discrimination will always rear it's ugly head, and will constantly need to corrected but lets not give any one race a pass & call it fair.

    If you allow a Miss Black beauty pageant then allow a Miss White, Miss Latino, Miss Asian, Miss Middle Eastern as well. If you have Black publications, then you should allow other races the same.

    Fair is fair...............What's good for one should be good for all..................:)

  6. Strangely I do believe this statement. :(

    Clinton/Democrat's has been cheating/bribing at every turn. With the support of the main stream media - it does appear that the fix is in.

    Trump has been winning the popular vote but the extent of the corruption can not be underestimated. I believe that Obama is influencing the government at every turn. The FBI it appears has already been influenced.

  7. Earlier this year I received letters addressed to me from my old address that I had opened not one but two checking accounts at Wells Fargo. I immediately assumed that some hacker had stolen my information and opened the accounts on-line. I immediately closed the accounts and thought nothing of the incident until I saw this article on the news.

    Being a victim of this fraud I now feel that this bank owes me for the inconvenience & worry that this bank's employees caused.

  8. Hillarious Clinton’s campaign is stealing from her poorest supporters by purposefully and repeatedly overcharging them after they make what’s supposed to be a one-time small donation through her official campaign website, multiple sources tell the Observer.

    The overcharges are occurring so often that the fraud department at one of the nation’s biggest banks receives up to 100 phone calls a day from Clinton’s small donors asking for refunds for unauthorized charges to their bankcards made by Clinton’s campaign. One elderly Clinton donor, who has been a victim of this fraud scheme, has filed a complaint with her state’s attorney general and a representative from the office told her that they had forwarded her case to the Federal Election Commission.

    “We get up to a hundred calls a day from Hillarious’s low-income supporters complaining about multiple unauthorized charges,” a source, who asked to remain anonymous for fear of job security, from the Wells Fargo fraud department told the Observer. The source claims that the Clinton campaign has been pulling this stunt since Spring of this year. The Hillarious for America campaign will overcharge small donors by repeatedly charging small amounts such as $20 to the bankcards of donors who made a one-time donation. However, the Clinton campaign strategically doesn’t overcharge these donors $100 or more because the bank would then be obligated to investigate the fraud.

     

    “We don’t investigate fraudulent charges unless they are over $100,” the fraud specialist explained. “The Clinton campaign knows this, that’s why we don’t see any charges over the $100 amount, they’ll stop the charges just below $100. We’ll see her campaign overcharge donors by $20, $40 or $60 but never more than $100.” The source, who has worked for Wells Fargo for over 10 years, said that the total amount they refund customers on a daily basis who have been overcharged by Clinton’s campaign “varies” but the bank usually issues refunds that total between $700 and $1,200 per day.

    The fraud specialist said that Clinton donors who call in will attempt to resolve the issue with the campaign first but they never get anywhere. “They will call the Clinton campaign to get their refund and the issue never gets resolved. So they call us and we just issue the refund. The Clinton campaign knows these charges are small potatoes and that we’ll just refund the money back.”

    The source said that pornography companies often deploy a similar arrangement pull. “We see this same scheme with a lot of seedy porn companies,” the source said. The source also notes that the dozens of phone calls his department receives daily are from people who notice the fraudulent charges on their statements. “The people who call us are just the ones who catch the fraudulent charges. I can’t imagine how many more people are getting overcharged by Hillarious’s campaign and they have no idea.”

  9. Being a retired vet - I really understand that my service & the service of so many others gives this knucklehead the freedom to protest in whatever manner he wants.

    I personally do not like the disrespectful way he has selected to protest, but that is what freedom is all about. :(

    A shame that he can not see that his disrespect was paid for with our folks blood. :(

  10. Why did the people riot?

    Because they can get away with it. An excuse to go buck wild without consequences!

    They said that they felt unrepresented and no one cares about their community. 

    Oh boo who, when you do not take responsibility for your community then no one else will either. Imagine what I would do if there were a drug house in my community? Imagine what I would do if criminals roamed my community? Imagine what I would do if random gun shots rang out in the night? When you do not report criminals - you are as guilty of the crimes they commit as the criminals themselves!

  11. The problems in black communities are economic and self inflicted. Our economy stinks right now point blank. Why flip burgers for 8.75 per hour when you can make hundreds every day selling drugs? These crimes are not reported in black communities where drug dealers set up drug houses instead of standing on the street corners. Why bring home a couple hundred a week when you can make hundreds everyday? Same is true for the young ladies: work at the strip club and bring home hundreds every night. Black entertainment is cashing in on the fast money lifestyle and praising it in song/rap. Exploitation is everywhere! Of course, with the fast money come the risks! violence, drug use and going to jail. Gangs are a more organized path to gettin' paid & protection as well. 

    The police are smack dab in the middle of it all. This generation does not have the respect for law enforcement that they have had in previous generations, and fighting back is becoming an accepted alternative. Yes, police are patrolling the black communities to protect the innocent and bust the guilty. Naturally the police work the high crime areas much harder then the low crime areas. Common sense!

    The black community has not embraced the concept of getting a higher education to succeed in life, working hard for achievement, or finding religion. Broken families/single parent homes are not helping. It seems everyone has abandoned this segment of our population, and only seeks to exploit it for their own gain. There are numerous churches in every black community who often prey on the people (Not All are bad). Kids endure hardship early in life and drop out of school to enter into making quick money in their teens. Once they obtain the felony convictions they are stuck with no more options. Of course our society witnesses lots of folks living "FREE" off of food stamps, housing assistance and hustling to make ends meet as well.

    There are no strong black leaders who are addressing these issues! What they seem to have are "ambulance chasers" who show up to get their names in the headlines when a incident happens. There are no effective organizations or movements operating that seek to make the segment a better community. Black lives Matter lacks direct & focus and operates more as a racist hate group then an beneficial movement. They only address symptoms but never the illness. Why protest every incident when a white police officer shoots a black citizen without addressing the hundred fold problem of blacks shooting blacks? Why not endorse higher education for your people? Why not address drug selling & use in the communities? Why not address poverty? Why not address the disproportionate numbers of black people in jails? Why not address young black girls having children too early in life and eliminating their options before their adulthood? Why not address young black boys/men who abandon their children without regard to raising them? Etc, etc...............

    WAKE UP! :(
