|
In light of President Bush’s determination to send an additional 21,000 plus troops to Iraq, regardless of the position of Congress and the American people, the citizens of the United States must be made aware of the ongoing experimentation and outright disregard for our American troops. With nearly thirty-six percent of our Gulf War I troops disabled, we must hold those responsible for such negligence accountable for these atrocities. |

FILMMAKERS & AUDIENCES:
PETITION THE MPAA FOR BETTER RATINGS!
The Motion Picture Association of America (MPAA), a trade association, defines itself "as the voice and advocate of the American motion picture industry." But its rating system for films impacts much more than the industry. MPAA ratings affect a film's distribution and thus its financial success; this, in turn, limits what kinds of movies get made and what people get to see at the local movie theater.
The rating system was designed to provide information to parents and movie-goers, but it too often results in arbitrary, inconsistent, and unreasonable decisions, which chill filmmakers' creative freedom and keep films away from audiences. |

Mooninite terrorists or political prisoners? Suspect faces deportation to Belarus if convicted. |
by Amigo Del Reg

Modified: 04:02:58 AM |
|
As the city scapegoats Peter Berdovsky and Sean Stevens to cover up its own inept mishandling and hyping up of small LED cartoon character signs as acts of terrorism, Berdovsky's fate hangs in the balance: he is a Belarusian citizen seeking political asylum in the United States. For the city's arrogant pride and ignorant over-reaction, he may face deportation, imprisonment and possibly torture in Belarus, a country well known for its human rights abuses. |

Gay or straight, bisexual or transgender, black or white or Asian, it makes no difference to the cold blooded murderers at Livermore as the employees mindlessly carry out their proscribed "tests" and "detonations." After all, the money's good, why would they ever ask anything? |
