“Last September 17th, as part of a wave of global protest, people from across the country raced to the heart of New York’s financial district to occupy Wall Street. In the face of big banks foreclosing on our homes, killing our jobs, buying up our democracy, and turning our environment into just another toxic asset, you showed up, and we became the 99%.”

Amazing video.

Women in America have no idea what “rights” are, to be honest. They complain about wrongly stated words, rumors, cliches, and stereotypes (which are usually jokes) while women in the Middle East are hung, beaten up, stoned, shot, beheaded, or raped BECAUSE they didn’t listen to the law, their husband, or a man in general. People, you need to relax. You live in a country where almost anything is allowed, yet you complain like you are being held in a basement, chained down, and can’t speak. I understand you have a right to speak and I think it’s great women have something to say because I hate sexism and racism…but it gets childish when your argument is about slut shamming, rape (which isn’t something most men want to do), or how women are better than men or equal. Who the fuck ever said you weren’t equal ? Because you, being ignorant, decide to watch the 6 o’clock news and heard that some southerner from Alabama said “women don’t matter” …that’s how you think the other 150+ million men think in America? Undoubtedly, almost every single time I’ve been in an argument with a feminist she invariably leads the argument into the subject of hating men. As one intelligent person said to me once “ “Stop the hate. If you replaced the word ‘men’ in your argument with the word ‘blacks’ I think you can more readily see the type of argument you are making.” Chill. Disclaimer: I don’t give a fuck if you think I’m sexist. I wrote this as an opinion, something most people, if not all people have. Do not message me and do not reblog this thinking I will care about your snobby remarks. Read it and understand it or fuck off. Thank you, Derek-Jon.

Violence in Syria has escalated into what the Red Cross calls a civil war. Activists say at least 17,000 people have died since the uprising began in March last year. The government of Bashar al-Assad, increasingly losing territory to rebel fighters, blames “terrorists” and “armed gangs” for the unrest, while the opposition and other nations have accused Assad’s forces of crimes against humanity.

In-case you haven’t been keeping up with what has been happening in Syria, follow this live blog.

“Last year, on the 14th of July, a girl called Daphni Leef pitched a tent on Rothschild Boulevard in central Tel Aviv. She was protesting against the high living costs in Israel that had left her unable to pay her rent, and the lack of opportunities for young people that had driven a close friend...

We’re now less than two weeks away from Mexico’s presidential election, and at this point, few people would have expected that the otherwise unsurprising democratic process of voting would be accompanied by scenes of rabble-rousing students chanting and singing along with mariachi bands outside the studios of Mexico’s leading television network.

These scenes, part of a nascent student movement known as #YoSoy132, are now becoming regular features on the nightly news in Mexico. Imagine that, young people protesting media bias and media manipulation by the thousands in a country with little precedent for such collective grievances against corporate big media.

A lot of people here are pretty excited with this development.

It all started on May 11, when candidate Enrique Peña Nieto visited the Iberoamerican University in Mexico City for what was supposed to bea friendly meet-and-greet with the student and academic community. Instead, over the course of his visit, Peña Nieto suffered a humiliating and disastrous few hours of abuse from what looked like a spontaneous student protest. It got messy.

Peña Nieto came for a normal campaign stop, to deliver a speech and answer questions before an auditorium. The thing was going nominally well until students who had managed to slip in protest signs past a security check could no longer contain themselves. According to video, photos, and accounts of the event, the shouting started after one lone guy with a poofy haircut and a lot of attitude stood up silently holding a hand-drawn sign that read simply, TE ODIO. “I hate you.”

The shouting and chanting grew. Peña Nieto sought an escape. More protesters were waiting for him outside. The candidate with the movie-star looks and soap-opera star wife was chased through the halls and courtyards of “the Ibero” by choruses of “Murderer!” and “Coward!” as students protested his handling of a 2006 dispute with campesinos in the town of San Salvador Atenco during his term as a state governor. The shouting and chasing grew overwhelming. Peña Nieto hid briefly in a restroom with his team, trying to find a good way out. Video of the moment shows Peña’s eyes wide and hollow, his forehead tense, lips curled up with fear.

The head of the United Nations’ peacekeeping operations has said that the situation in Syria now amounts to a full-scale civil war as witnesses on the ground described fresh shelling on Homs and heavy fighting in other cities.

“Yes, I think we can say that,” Herve Ladsous, the head of the UN’s Department of Peacekeeping Operations, told reporters in New York on Tuesday, when asked whether he believed Syria was now in a state of civil war.

“Clearly what is happening is that the government of Syria lost some large chunks of territory, several cities to the opposition, and wants to retake control.”

Kieran Dwyer, a spokesman for the UN peacekeeping department, told Al Jazeera that Landous’ description was “related to what is going on in the last five days.”

The 84-year-old is the first former leader to be tried in person since the start of the Arab Spring in early 2011.

I don’t know why I hadn’t posted this sooner.

So everyone has been freaking out about this even that happened two days ago in Miami. A man was found eating another mans face off in which he was shot dead. It seemed crazy to everyone including me until I found out a lot more about other events. There have been multiple attacks in Florida in the past few months all with a lot of the same symptoms exemplified by the attacker. So, I researched, as I usually do. I found not one, but two articles from National Geographic talking about a new rabies virus that is evolving way too quickly and if mixed with influenza could actually cause a “zombie-like disease” that would not make someone dead come back to life, but would make someone with the virus almost zombie-like as far as being violent, biting, eating, killing, etc. 

Articles HERE & HERE

There also was A SEPARATE attack in Miami about 1 1/2 months ago where a man attempted to bite someone and was also acting abnormal. He was shot with a stun gun and actually died. Article HERE

A woman attacked an elderly man and claimed she was a vampire. ArticleHERE

Police say man attacks officer and zoo worker, bites them. He was originally there with his girlfriend but then he started to act abnormal, ripping his clothes off because he was hot, dunking his head in water, and then bit two people. He was tazed and is now dead as well. Article HERE

A 49 year old woman bit her 74 year old friend to death in California last year. Article HERE

Naked man covered in blood lunges at police officers, biting one in leg in 2009. Article HERE

Now, they actually labeled this new “attack”, Excited Delirium. “The symptoms of excited delirium include bizarre and/or aggressive behavior, shouting, paranoia, panic, violence towards other people, unexpected physical strength, and hyperthermia. Throughout the United States and Canada, these cases are frequently associated with psychostimulant abuse, representing the extreme end of a psychiatric continuum of drug abuse effects. However, reports of acute exhaustive mania, physical restraint, Pepper Spray or TASER and sudden death also have been reported that are not related to abused drugs, suggesting further that an underlying central nervous system disorder was the precipitating cause of lethality. Such victims of excited delirium have provoked allegations of police misconduct, unnecessary force and improper TASER deployment.”

The crazy thing to me is that after all of these reports, the police say it was LSD or PCP. There have been so many reports of it not being drug related and if it had anything to do with drugs, it was just enhancing the rage of the human being. 

All I’m saying is do not rule out something that hasn’t been proven yet. They have said HUNDREDS of times that it is possible for something like the “rage virus” in 28 days later to actually exist because they aren’t dead, they are just rage induced because of a disease or virus. There is something going on around the country/world and it’s quite odd. Be open minded and pass this news along.
