Agenda 21 and the Transnational Interlocking Corporate Kingdom
.
Jon David Miller
Activist Post
What Is Agenda 21?
Agenda 21 is a protocol of the United Nations that is designed to greatly limit the lifestyle of populations, particularly in developed nations. It is being promoted to seem to address concerns about climate change, the economy, and social justice.
Climate change was originally described as “global warming” until the evidence of that was exposed as uncertain.
Falsely blaming carbon emissions from human activities as the cause of changes in climate and weather was a strategy developed by a group of elite planners called “The Club of Rome” in the 1970s to justify programs to reduce what they consider to be overpopulation and save resources for their future profit and control measures. Carbon is not a toxin and is actually needed by plants to grow.
The planning by the elite powers resulted in the introduction of Agenda 21 through global environmental conferences in the 1990s, and its evolution to now reorganize how people live in the 21st Century.
Agenda 21 emphasizes the development of what are called “sustainable communities” of green living. The plan calls for people to be concentrated in cities, residing in modest equitable spaces, with minimal use of resources. Water volume and energy use for heating and power are becoming monitored and limited with smart meter technology.
In the future, if you have a job it is expected that you will live in or near your work site. Your income will be about enough to meet your justifiable expenses, which will be audited through the cashless banking system. For that matter, your purchases, communications, activities and interests can be monitored through your digital payments, smart phone transmissions, and television-computer usage.

George Carlin -”Who Really Controls America” (Video)
True in 2008 , very true in 2013 : If there were any video worthy of being passed on it’s this one! And while you’re at it. Help take back our Country!! Stop saying how bad things are and do something about it. You do have a voice in your Government! George Denis Patrick Carlin (May 12, 1937 – June 22, 2008) was an American stand-up comedian, social critic, satirist, actor, and writer/author who won five Grammy Awards for his comedy albums. Carlin was noted for his black humor as well as his thoughts on politics, the English language, psychology, religion, and various taboo subjects. Carlin and his “Seven Dirty Words” comedy routine were central to the 1978 U.S. Supreme Court case F.C.C. v. Pacifica Foundation, in which a 5–4 decision by the justices affirmed the government’s power to regulate indecent material on the public airwaves.
The first of his 14 stand-up comedy specials for HBO was filmed in 1977. From the late 1980s, Carlin’s routines focused on socio-cultural criticism of modern American society. He often commented on contemporary political issues in the United States and satirized the excesses of American culture. In 2004, Carlin placed second on the Comedy Central list of the 100 greatest stand-up comedians of all time, ahead of Lenny Bruce

The Chilling Effects Of License-Plate Location Tracking
Location tracking has far-reaching implications for the way we live, even if we don’t think we’ve done anything wrong. Our recent report, “You Are Being Tracked,” shows that automatic license plate readers allow law enforcement to track every car on the road, not just those relevant to an investigation. This type of widespread tracking endangers our rights of protest and association and has the potential to reach deep into our lives and alter our daily decision making.
License plate readers are poised to become commonplace. As we note in our report:
…as license plate readers have proliferated, they no longer capture individuals’ movements at only a few points. Increasingly, they are capturing drivers’ locations outside church, the doctor’s office, and school, giving law enforcement and private companies that run the largest databases the ability to build detailed pictures of our lives.
Knowing or suspecting that we’re being watched can stop us from engaging in certain kinds of behavior, even when it’s perfectly lawful. For example, it might affect our decision to go to a certain barber (what would my other barber say?), meet up with a friend (what would my mom say?), eat at a restaurant (what would my trainer say?), or take the scenic route (is it suspicious that I’m not using my normal route?). Surveillance changes the way we make daily decisions—the same way that a rapidly approaching police car in your rearview mirror may make you feel nervous even when you are driving completely lawfully.
Fox News: Now Under Martial Law – Democracy Being Suspended? (Chilling Video)
According to this video released today by David Vose, America is already now under martial law. With the NDAA in effect and the obvious assassinations of American citizens happening before our eyes, the attempted silencing of truth and the lies of the mainstream media being exposed every day, is this video more proof that Liberty is already dead and gone? As long as we still have the 1st and 2nd Amendments, we still have everything we need to make sure that Liberty lives on for long after we are gone. Awaken the masses while we still can.
Texas Cops Go To Wrong House, Kill Elderly Man, Blame Bad Lighting
Two rookie cops responding to a burglary call accidentally went to the wrong Fort Worth house and ended up shooting the homeowner due to "poor lighting," a police affidavit claims.
Despite being sent to investigate a possible break-in at 409 Havenwood Lane, Officers B.B. Hanlon and R.P. Hoeppner "inadvertently began searching" [PDF] across the street at 404 Havenwood instead.
The early morning hours of May 28th provided little natural light for the officers, and the affidavit says there was "no lighting around the home" of 72-year-old Jerry Waller and his wife Kathy, "and the officers had only the use of their flashlights."
Facts get a bit murky after that.
The officers allege that they encountered Waller standing outside his garage with a .38-caliber handgun, and identified themselves. They insist they only shot Waller after he pointed the gun at them.
But Waller's family tells a different story.

Busted! Caught on Tape - Undercover Police Agent Plant Drugs In Small Business
Shock Video: Business Owner’s Surveillance Cameras Seem to Catch Undercover Police Agent Planting the Crack That Landed Him in Jail
Unbelievable video captured by a New York business owner’s surveillance cameras appear to show an undercover police informant (not a police officer) planting and photographing crack cocaine, which ultimately led to the man’s arrest.
Scotia and Schenectady County Police reportedly became suspicious of Donald Andrews, Jr., who owns a smoke shop on Mohawk Avenue in Scotia, N.Y., and decided to send the undercover informant to gather some information. He was sent to Andrews’ place of business twice, according to WNYT-TV.
It was during the informant’s second trip to the smoke shop that he was caught on camera planting and photographing what appears to be cocaine.

Mystery still shrouds hit and run death of Kellyann Boyce Hurlbert
Patrick Sullivan - July 22nd, 2013
Police reached over 400 tips in the case of the July 5 hit and run death of Kellyann (Boyce) Hurlbert, but all of that information from the public so far hasn’t helped investigators get any closer to solving the case.
“We’re still basically at the same place we were on the fifth,” Capt. Mike Ayling, who is heading up the investigation, said last Wednesday.
The lack of progress is in stark contrast to the amount of effort investigators have put into the case. Investigators have followed up on every tip.
The FBI and the Michigan State Police recently joined the investigation. The state police can help design a crash reconstruction model that could be used at a trial, if the case reaches that point.
SIGNS OF INTENT
There are reasons to believe the hit and run was an intentional act.
First, there are the other similar crashes, one on June 28, 2012, when a pregnant 31-year-old was run down, breaking her leg, and another on July 5, 2010, when a 39-yearold woman was struck.
All three cases happened late at night, at roughly the same time of year, and each case involved a dark-colored truck. Each one involved a woman alone on her bicycle late at night. Each woman was headed east.
Another indicator in Hurlbert’s case that she was struck intentionally was that there was a parked car not far in front of the location of the initial impact, Ayling said.
That car would have been difficult for someone who was drunk to maneuver around, he said, yet the person who struck Hurlbert was able to avoid the car.

Centre for Exploit"ing" Missing Children
Jon Bennett Ramsey
The Centre for Exploiting Missing Children is a slight rename of ICMEC (The International Centre of Missing and Exploited Children). I think my name reflects their activities better.
This centre is set up for the elites by the elites, and it is a system to support the international elite paedophile ring. It pretends to be helping missing kids, but this is a cover story in order to fund it, and in order to expand their activities. If it’s in full public view, they can make it as big and expansive as they like, have really big meetings, all in a very good disguise as philanthropists.

Cop Fired for Speaking Out Against Ticket and Arrest Quotas
Auburn, Alabama is home to sprawling plains, Auburn University, and a troubling police force. After the arrival of a new police chief in 2010, the department entered an era of ticket quotas and worse.
“When I first heard about the quotas I was appalled,” says former Auburn police officer Justin Hanners, who claims he and other cops were given directives to hassle, ticket, or arrest specific numbers of residents per shift. “I got into law enforcement to serve and protect, not be a bully.”
Hanners blew the whistle on the department’s tactics and was eventually fired for refusing to comply and keep quiet. He says that each officer was required to make 100 contacts each month, which included tickets, arrests, field interviews, and warnings. This equates to 72,000 contacts a year in a 50,000 person town. His claims are backed up by audio recordings of his superiors he made. The Auburn police department declined requests to be interviewed for this story.
“There are not that many speeders, there are not that many people running red lights to get those numbers, so what [the police] do is they lower their standards,” says Hanners. That led to the department encouraging officers to arrest people that Hanners “didn’t feel like had broken the law.”

Her conviction has been overturned and her 'confession' to a cop who was branded 'lawless' has been thrown out. So why, after 23 years on Death Row for killing her son, is Debra Milke STILL begging for her freedom?
- Debra Milke was convicted of plotting the murder of son Christopher, 4, two decades ago
- Her conviction was described as 'shameful' and 'troubling' by the appeal judge overturning it
- Now attorneys have petitioned the court to release her on bail pending retrial in September
- Her mother is dying and she has had no contact with her for two months
- A judge will again decide her fate on 1 August
- The men convicted of the shooting maintain her innocence though they could save their own lives by testifying against her
An Arizonan mother awaiting retrial after 23 years on death row has made a desperate plea for bail after learning that her own mother is dying of cancer, MailOnline can reveal.
Debra Milke was found guilty of playing a part in the murder of her 4-year-old son Chrisopher in 1989.
Her conviction was dramatically overturned in March when it emerged that the State had knowingly withheld evidence that lead detective, Armando Saldate, Jr, ‘lied under oath and trampled the constitutional rights of suspects.’
Woman Having Diabetic Attack Assaulted by Police
Santa Fe County police can be seen on camera attacking a diabetic woman, ripping her out of her car and throwing her on the ground while she was having a diabetic episode.
According to KOAT News: Revena Garcia’s blood sugar dropped so low that she became extremely disoriented and could not open her car door. Deputies assumed she was a drunk driver and broke through her window, ripped her limp body from the vehicle, handcuffed her facedown on the hot pavement, where they left her, motionless.
“I was just lost, I was just lost,” Garcia said. She said her blood sugar was so low that she could have gone into a coma.

Making Homelessness A Crime On Both Sides Of The Atlantic
Two items of news stood out this morning. They come from totally different sources in different countries. They are discussing proposals to make homelessness illegal. Coming from different sides of the Atlantic, their messages are remarkably similar and the proposals made by US and UK lawmakers could have come from the same speech writer.
In the US, Marc Sarnoff, City Commissioner of Miami, is trying to make it illegal to be homeless. He wants to ban sleeping on park benches, meeting friends, congregating in public spaces and even eating while walking along the street. (source)

America No Longer Has a Functioning Judicial System
From Washington"s Blog
The Separation of Powers Which Define Our Democracy Have Been Destroyed
The Department of Justice told a federal court this week that the NSA’s spying “cannot be challenged in a court of law”.
(This is especially dramatic given that numerous federal judges and legal scholars – including a former FISA judge – say that the FISA spying “court” is nothing but a kangaroo court.)
Also this week, the Department of Justice told a federal court that the courts could not review the legality of the government’s extra-judicial assassination by drone of Americans abroad:
The Executive Branch also presents “secret evidence” in manycourt cases … sometimes even hiding the evidence from the judge who is deciding the case.

“‘Are you saying that a US citizen targeted by the United States in a foreign country has no constitutional rights?’ [the judge] asked Brian Hauck, a deputy assistant attorney general. ‘How broadly are you asserting the right of the United States to target an American citizen? Where is the limit to this?’(Indeed, the Obama administration has previously claimed the power to be judge, jury and executioner in both drone and cyber-attacks. This violates Anglo-Saxon laws which have been on the books in England and America for 800 years.)
“She provided her own answer: ‘The limit is the courthouse door’ . . . .
“‘Mr. Hauck acknowledged that Americans targeted overseas do have rights, but he said they could not be enforced in court either before or after the Americans were killed.’”

Man’s Home Raided By Police For Paying Cash
Of the many crimes that have been committed by governments against their citizens in their global war on cash (also here), perhaps this is the most bizarre. Here is the story
It all started one Saturday morning when Jarl Syvertsen, a 59-year-old disabled Norwegian man, purchased a PC, TVs, and washing machines for 80,000 kroner (roughly US$13,000) which he paid in cash. The store immediately alerted the police about the large cash payment. On Sunday a male and a female police officer appeared on Mr Syvertsen’s doorstep. Upon seeing them, Mr. Syvertsen at first feared that something may have happened to his mother, who is 86 years old and resides in a nursing home. But the police were there with a warrant to search his home, charging that the cash he had spent was money that “came from a criminal offense.” In fact, the money was actually part of an approximately one-million dollar advance on an inheritance he had received. Mr. Syvertsen attempted several times to explain to the officers where the money had come from and to show them a letter confirming that fact, but they would have none of it and proceeded to invade his home and his privacy. Eventually the police realized their error and left his home.

Rise of the Warrior Cop

- RADLEY BALKO
On Jan. 4 of last year, a local narcotics strike force conducted a raid on the Ogden, Utah, home of Matthew David Stewart at 8:40 p.m. The 12 officers were acting on a tip from Mr. Stewart's former girlfriend, who said that he was growing marijuana in his basement. Mr. Stewart awoke, naked, to the sound of a battering ram taking down his door. Thinking that he was being invaded by criminals, as he later claimed, he grabbed his 9-millimeter Beretta pistol.
The police say that they knocked and identified themselves, though Mr. Stewart and his neighbors said they heard no such announcement. Mr. Stewart fired 31 rounds, the police more than 250. Six of the officers were wounded, and Officer Jared Francom was killed. Mr. Stewart himself was shot twice before he was arrested. He was charged with several crimes, including the murder of Officer Francom.
The police found 16 small marijuana plants in Mr. Stewart's basement. There was no evidence that Mr. Stewart, a U.S. military veteran with no prior criminal record, was selling marijuana. Mr. Stewart's father said that his son suffered from post-traumatic stress disorder and may have smoked the marijuana to self-medicate.
Early this year, the Ogden city council heard complaints from dozens of citizens about the way drug warrants are served in the city. As for Mr. Stewart, his trial was scheduled for next April, and prosecutors were seeking the death penalty. But after losing a hearing last May on the legality of the search warrant, Mr. Stewart hanged himself in his jail cell.

Striking Back at Police State Amerika
Striking Back at Police State Amerika
Dave Hodges * The Common Sense Show
Every day a granny is goosed by TSA, a federal swat team raids the wrong house, a citizen acquitted of a crime still has their property confiscated by authorities, even the dumbed down public is aware that their every communication is monitored by the NSA and Obama has set his administration up to violate every constitutional right of every citizen in America under the NDAA and Executive Order 13603.
Anyone who possess an IQ above room temperature is aware that our federal government is totally out of control and is wreaking tyranny upon the American people. As a people, we have seemingly grown numb to the constitutional violations perpetrated by our government against the citizens of this country. However, the abuse of citizens does not begin and end with the federal government.
Trickle Down Tyranny
With ever increasing frequency, the alternative media reports countless numbers of stories of citizen abuse at the hands of their local police and city officials. The local police departments have been federalized by DHS. They are provided millions of federal dollars for equipment and the new breed of police view the people as their enemy as opposed to the old cops walking a beat who previously viewed the majority of the people as their ally against crime. Through the influence of DHS, your local police department is looking to pounce on your every mistake with excessive force and brutality and they do so frequently while ignoring and violating any number of constitutional protections.
When Is An Arrest Is Not Really An Arrest?
Portland police officer Dean Halley must have failed his American Government class in high school . A reasonable person would also have to wonder if Portland Deputy City Attorney William Manlove got his law degree from Walmart. what am I referring to? Well, if the Scott Miller jaywalking case is any indication, the Portland legal system is one big fascist entity that is totally out of control.
Scott Miller was running late to work. In an effort to catch his bus, he diagonally jaywalked in the crosswalk to catch his rid.
Portland police officer Dean Halley was on patrol and was able to intervene just in the nick of time and arrest this menace to society. Halley approached Miller and told him to produce identification. Miller was subsequently fumbling around on his person looking for his ID when Halley immediately pounced on Miller, knocked him to the ground, informed Miller that he was under arrest and placed him in handcuffs. Halley subsequently confined Miller in the back of his police cruiser and then proceeded to drive the criminal jaywalker a block away. The total ordeal lasted 30 minutes, but while in the police cruiser, Miller experienced a panic attack and paramedics were dispatched to the scene to administer aid. Miller was subsequently convicted in court of failure to obey a traffic signal.
Miller has obtained an attorney, Leonard Berman, and Miller is attempting to sue the Portland Police Department for an illegal arrest because jaywalking is not an offense that one can be arrested for.
Halley, a 20 year police veteran, admits he told Miller that he was under arrest. However, Deputy City AttorneyWilliam Manlove is arguing that citizens cannot sue under these circumstances because such acts do not constitute an actual arrest. Manlove stated that the encounter between Halley and Miller amounted to no more than a “chat.” Manlove characterized the encounter as being something “between a chat and custody, but not an arrest for purposes of legal action.” Are you kidding me?
The Evil Psychology Behind A Cops Uniform And Badge. The Stanford Prison Experiment Revisited
The Evil Psychology Behind A Cops Uniform And Badge. The Stanford Prison Experiment Revisited
In 1971, a bizarre experiment funded by the US Navy, and carried out in the basement of Stanford U, showed exactly how quickly normal, everyday people can quickly turn into psychotic creeps, just because they are given authority over others. But one of the major findings of the experiment was the effect of the uniform, and in the experiment, a baton and handcuffs.
The researchers set up a mock prison in the basement of Standford University’spsychology building, and then selected 24 undergraduate students to play the roles of both prisoners and guards. The participants were selected from a larger group of 70 volunteers because they had no criminal background, lacked psychological issues and had no major medical conditions. The volunteers agreed to participate for a one- to two-week period in exchange for $15 a day.
…
While the Stanford Prison Experiment was originally slated to last 14 days, it had to be stopped after just six days due to what was happening to the student participants. The guards became abusive and the prisoners began to show signs of extreme stress and anxiety.
While the prisoners and guards were allowed to interact in any way they wanted, the interactions were generally hostile or even dehumanizing. The guards began to behave in ways that were aggressive and abusive toward the prisoners, while the prisoners became passive and depressed. Five of the prisoners began to experience such severe negative emotions, including crying and acute anxiety , that they had to be released from the study early.

Pre-Crime ‘Heat List’ Begins In Chicago: Is This The Next Stage Of The Police State Unfolding
Pre-Crime ‘Heat List’ Begins In Chicago: Is This The Next Stage Of The Police State Unfolding?
Chicago police have created a ‘heat list’, a list of names of people whom they will soon be paying visits to, not for committing any crimes but because THEY MIGHT commit crimes in the future. They’ll also soon be paying visits to those who MIGHT be possible victims as well. How do they know who might be soon be committing crimes or possible victims? Isn’t this diving a bit more into Orwellian ‘police state’ territory? When will the FEDS use all of the data that they’ve gotten from the NSA to ’round up’ Americans, pre-crime style? The revmichellehopkins has a very interesting take on ‘pre-crime’ in the video below.
Working from a list of people deemed most likely to become shooters or victims, aChicago Police commander is expected to start knocking on their doors Friday and deliver letters warning them not to commit any violent crimes.
The “custom notifications” are a pilot program in the Austin District on the West Side. Austin District Cmdr. Barbara West plans to deliver letters to 20 people on a so-called “heat list,” officials said.
The heat list stems from work by Andrew Papachristos, a Yale University professor who studied murders between 2005 and 2010 on the West Side. He found 70 percent of the killings were in a social network of 1,600 people out of a total population of 80,000.
The citywide social network of violence includes more than 16,000 people, police Supt. Garry McCarthy said. The department narrowed that list to more than 400 “hot people” most likely to commit shootings or become victims — or 20 people per police district.
The letters will warn those on the list that they will face the most serious charges possible if they’re arrested for a violent crime.
“The custom notifications are the next step in the evolution of putting those guys on notice that they have the highest propensity for homicide,” McCarthy said. “We’re saying, ‘We know who you are, we know what you do and your chance of dying in a homicide is much greater than John Q. Citizen.
