  • Trayvon mystery deepens

    Old Trooper sends us a link to a local news report that says that Trayvon had injuries on his knuckles;

    WFTV has learned that the medical examiner found two injuries on Martin’s body: The fatal gunshot wound and broken skin on his knuckles.

    When you compare Trayvon’s non-fatal injury with Zimmerman’s bloody head wounds, the autopsy evidence is better for the defense, Sheaffer said.

    “It goes along with Zimmerman’s story that he acted in self-defense, because he

    So, coupled with Zimmerman’s injuries we talked about earlier this morning, I just can’t add one plus one. I wonder what it means when one participant has injuries to his knuckles and the other has injuries to head. It’s truly a mystery. I’m sure Insipid or Joe will be able to spell it out for us so we won’t be racists.

  • Soldier beaten and robbed in Tampa

    Claymore and Amy send us a link to this disturbing story;

    According to reporters, a 24-year-old soldier was approached by a man who asked him for a dollar. When the soldier reached for his wallet, he got laid out by the first man and three others joined in. The video from a surveillance camera is included in this report;

  • Hypocrisy thy name is Richard Klass

    Daniel sent us a link from Huffington Post written by retired Air Force Colonel about the video we discussed the other day from Veterans For A Strong America. Daniel tells us that the Rhodes scholar, Col. Klass, can’t read apparently because while trying to link to Veterans For A Strong America, he instead, while quoting from the wrong website links to Veterans 4 A Strong America.

    Yeah, I see the similarity, and although Veterans 4 A Strong America popped up in my google search first, I went to the entry below it for the people who could spell “For”. But, then I’m not a Rhodes scholar, so that might explain my confusion to want to get things right.

    But I also read Klass’ article and his name sounded familiar, so I checked our archives and it turns out that TSO tore him up in the last presidential election for the same things he’s complaining about Veterans For A Strong America.

    Links to TSO’s work are here, here and here. Maybe when he gets back next week, he’ll take up the Klass banner again.

    Apparently, Klass hid the fact that he was chairman of “Vets For Obama” while he was proselytizing on Huffington Post. And when TSO emailed him about his disingenuous misrepresentation, Klass quoted from the IAVA scorecard to explain his support for Obama. And he supported Murtha.

    So, he’s a turd, and it looks like he plans on being a turd through this election year, too.

  • Ryan Riley; That Guardsman with the Neo-nazis

    Our frenemy, Adam Weinstein at Mother Jones discovered the name of the “US National Guardsman” who was training with the Neo-Nazis I wrote about earlier by actually reading the arrest affidavit. So, I went and found him on AKO. Here’s what the affidavit said about Ryan Riley;

    It said that Ryan trained these nimnils in hand-to-hand combat and edged weapon techniques, breaking down weapons, water purification and survival skills. Ryan is a specialist (an E-4) in the Guard – it says he’s assigned to A Co. 1/138th Infantry, so here’s my question. How much training have you guys in the Guard had in hand-to-hand combat and edged weapon techniques. They might have actually learned something in breaking down weapons, but their weapons probably came with a book that would have done a better job. Survival techniques? What, like picking out a good MRE? (I stole that one from an email I had with Weinstein) Water purification – I guess it takes skill to drop a pill in a canteen.

    Yeah, I know, if the Neo-Nazis paid Riley, they got screwed. None of those are subjects they have much time to cover during their weekend drills in the Guard what with all of the sensitivity training and common skills training they get saddled with. Even if his duty MOS is 11-series, the AKO account isn’t clear on his specialty.

    Now, in Adam’s piece, he writes;

    [M]any of the nation’s most infamous political criminals and terrorists—from Lee Harvey Oswald to Timothy McVeigh to Nidal Malik Hasan—were veterans.

    With the exception of maybe Oswald, those guys didn’t learn the skills they used to accomplish their nefarious goals from the military. I was in the same unit as McVeigh during Desert Storm and I don’t know how to build a truck bomb. And the Army doesn’t train it’s psychiatrists on the combat pistol range, that whole Hippocratic Oath thing, ya know. Although Weinstein says it would be unfair to paint with a broad brush all people in the military with the actions of a few, it’s also unfair to blame military training. And since Adam reads this blog, he knows that;

    As conservative military blogger Jonn Lilyea points out, “One guy in the Missouri National Guard doesn’t a conspiracy make.”

    Had to use that “conservative” in there didn’t you, Adam? Everyone else calls me a milblogger without mixing in the politics.

    If Riley is in fact using his military know-how to prepare for war with American blacks and Jews, it’s fair to ask what the military can do to keep guys like him out of uniform.

    Simple enough to say out loud, but much more difficult to practice. How about some suggestions as to how the military can weed out racists, since they already check police records and credit records. What else can they do? Lie detectors?

  • White Supremacists busted in FL

    From our buddy, Gateway Pundit, the news that 10 skinhead dolts were arrested in Florida this past weekend (KSEE News link;

    A group of white supremacists rounded up in central Florida over the weekend were stockpiling weapons and training for a ‘coming race war,’ where they planned to kill minorities, immigrants and Jews, according to authorities.

    Court documents reveal the ten members of American Front were preparing to become active again and recapture media attention, possibly with an assault on Orlando City Hall, in an effort to attract new recruits.

    They were also allegedly planning to manufacture the deadly toxin ricin, which the government considers a weapon of mass destruction.

    Filthy inbred scum apparently had a few acres out the woods for their training area, and they had reinforced the perimeter with concrete and railroad ties and had firing ports on their trailer. But here’s the part that mystifies me;

    Last summer, a member of the US National Guard, who was in a Missouri chapter of American Front, visited the group in Florida for hand-to-hand combat training and instruction on fighting with knives, the Sentinel reported.

    First of all, what is the US National Guard? Never heard of it. Why would the article even mention one guy who came from Misouri to train with the ass clowns? Unless they’re trying to make the point that there are dangerous members of the military ready to fight a race war, like the Department of Homeland Security said a few years back. One guy in the Missouri National Guard doesn’t a conspiracy make.

    By the way, I’m stockpiling arms and ammunition, too, but that doesn’t make me a white supremacist. Just prepared.

  • Thompson remains in jail without bond

    We talked about the arrest of Bobby Thompson who absconded with the donations made to his organization US Navy Veterans Association. He made an appearance in court yesterday, according to a link sent to us by Art, where the judge denied his bail because she wasn’t sure he’d be around for the next court date if she did;

    Brad Tammaro, chief counsel to Ohio Attorney General Mike DeWine, told the judge that Thompson was arrested with a suitcase full of phony IDs and apparently was planning to make more.

    Without ties to the community and the possibility he may have access to the missing money, Thompson would be a risk to become a fugitive and should not be allowed to remain free pending trial, Tammaro said.

    And we still don’t know his real name;

    Authorities say they traced the name Bobby Thompson to a Choctaw man who worked for the Bureau of Indian Affairs and wasn’t connected to the charity case. Authorities say he had his identity stolen, including his Social Security number and date of birth.

    The Bobby Thompson who was in court yesterday is also representing himself in the trial. I guess he has a strategy in which he doesn’t want to involve his attorney.

  • Occupados show up to support terrorists in Cleveland courtroom

    Yesterday, after the Cleveland Plain Dealer discovered that the ‘splody bridge plot terrorists were also on the lease for the Occupy Cleveland’s warehouse where some of the Occu-tards were living and storing their occu-gear, the leadership of OC gnashed their teeth over what would happen if the media found out how closely they were connected to the terrorists.

    “These people participated in aspects of the movement, but once we discovered what was going on we decided they could not be part of it,” Zitt said. “I wish we had learned earlier.”

    So to demonstrate to the world how the terrorists aren’t part of the Occupy movement and don’t enjoy the support of Occupy Cleveland, 50 of them showed up at court in support of the little maggots;

    In all, about 50 members of the Occupy Cleveland group went into courthouse. After the arrests were made, Occupy Cleveland said the five suspects were associated with the group, but they were “in no way representing or acting on behalf of Occupy Cleveland.”

    A man in the group – believed to be a father of one of the suspects — was overheard asking people to pray for the suspect.

    The city of Cleveland decided to not renew the group’s permit a day after the arrests, but did not say if the decision was related to the bomb plot.

    Yeah, that’ll fool us.

  • CNN busts phony vet charity

    CNN is finally doing something useful with it’s investigations – like busting the Disabled Veterans National Foundation. Apparently, they’ve taken in over 55 million bucks in donations and almost nothing has gone to actually helping veterans according to their IRS filings. And the money they have spent on veterans’ groups was almost useless;

    “They sent us 2,600 bags of cough drops and 2,200 little bottles of sanitizer,” J.D. Simpson told CNN. “And the great thing was, they sent us 11,520 bags of coconut M&M’s. And we didn’t have a lot of use for 11,520 bags of coconut M&M’s. ”

    Simpson said the DVNF also sent him more than 700 pairs of Navy dress shoes, which he said he can’t use

    CNN obtained the bill of lading for that shipment, which showed that, among other things, hundreds of chefs coats and aprons were included in the delivery, along with a needlepoint design pillowcase and cans of acrylic paint. The goods listed in the two-page shipping document were things “we don’t need,” a US Vets spokesman said.

    As we’ve shown here at TAH, with IVAW, IAVA and VoteVets, trading on veterans’ reputations is big business. Know who you’re giving your money to, and sometimes the traditional route is the best way to get money where it’s needed.
