A
newly approved 451 error code will be used on pages which have been
censored by the government for legal reasons. The code number was
inspired by the famous dystopian Ray Bradbury novel ‘Fahrenheit 451.’
The
Internet Engineering Steering Group (IESG) approved on Monday a new
Hypertext Transfer Protocol (HTTP) status – code 451 that will be seen
by internet users when the page is blocked by government due to ‘legal
obstacles.’
“This status code indicates that the server is denying access to the resource as a consequence of a legal demand,” the body, responsible for internet operating standards, said in a statement.
IESG said that it advises the authorities to include the information on who and why blocked a certain website.
However, “it
is possible that certain legal authorities might wish to avoid
transparency, and not only demand the restriction of access to certain
resources, but also avoid disclosing that the demand was made.”
Though it said that in many cases the sites could still be accessed using a VPN or the Tor network.
Another mass shooting attack targeted 'gun-free zone' of California, knowing citizens would be powerless to defend themselves... California is a human shooting range
Thursday, December 03, 2015 by: J. D. Heyes
(NaturalNews) At the time of this writing, news about the horrific mass shootings in San Bernardino, Calif., is still unfolding. There are a great many details that have not yet become clear, except that more than a dozen people have been killed, many more wounded, and that the shooters targeted the Inland Region Center, which provides assistance and care for disabled persons. Also, at this writing, a terrorism link has not yet been established or ruled out – understandable given the recent attacks in Paris, where ISIS-sponsored gunmen killed 130 people and wounded scores more.
Authorities are also fairly certain there was more than one gunman, that they were heavily armed, sporting military-style gear, hoods and semi-automatic rifles.
What is less certain – in fact, what is a downright mystery, both to me and tens of millions of my countrymen – is why, oh why, there continue to be "gun-free zones" in a nation whose founders sought to ensure that none of their progeny would be without a means to protect themselves and their families unless they made the personal choice to be vulnerable.
Doubling down on stupidity – and vulnerability
And honestly, California is one of the worst offenders, featuring strict gun control laws, byzantine gun licensure processes and a ruling class that is at once protected by men and women with guns but disavowed of any obligation to allow those they rule the same right.
Police are continuing to sort through evidence as I write this. They have yet to identify the perpetrators of this violence, let alone locate them. Soon, families of the victims will begin to mourn, with many angrily denouncing the assailants and, sadly, many calling for even more laws and regulations that will result in more deaths, more funerals and more heartbreak for more families in the future.
Like Parisians in November, San Bernardinians victimized by this latest attack had no choice but to cower in place and wait for armed police to rush in and save them. Only, as usual, armed police are never at the locations where the deranged come to slaughter, at least not initially. They do get there, eventually, but not before the maximum carnage is inflicted on bewildered and vulnerable citizens, many of whom became victims against their will.
Not that it made a difference in Paris, of course, where police, who are unarmed, themselves, have no option but to cower in the face of armed and determined criminals and terrorists.
The irony is not so sweet; in the U.S., following such incidents, cops that resemble soldiers fill the streets following such mass murder events. In France, actual soldiers, with body armor, are deployed.
Will anyone in power do the right thing – finally?
But what are they protecting, really? Because by the time these assets are deployed, the murderers are often long gone, and while they are most often found at a later date, in another location, the carnage has been committed, the damage done. And there is no going back in time to reverse it.
Yet our "leaders" keep doubling down on vulnerability. And stupidity. And taking chances with our lives. They force companies to spend scarce resources to provide employees with training in "active shooter drills," and require them to "practice" responding to a situation that, honestly – unless you've been around "active shooting," as in a war zone – most will have no idea how they'd really react.
How about, for a change, we alter our direction? How about instead of mandating more gun-free zones, we start building some "universal protection zones," where citizens are free to utilize their Second Amendment right to protect themselves, and their spiritual right to self-preservation? We've done the vulnerability thing time and time and time again; let's try the "self-defense" and "self-protection" thing, okay?
Is anyone in Washington – or Sacramento – listening? It's doubtful; they're too busy looking for a way to exploit this tragedy for political gain to do the right thing.
Active shooter drills carried out EVERY MONTH at San Bernardino Inland Regional Center... staff tweeted 'drill started' as police raid began
Thursday, December 03, 2015
by Mike Adams, the Health Ranger
(NaturalNews) Get this: The location where the shooting was carried out in San Bernardino -- the Inland Regional Center -- has been subjected to monthly active shooter drills, we're now learning.
This adds even more evidence to the notion that this may be a staged false flag event to provide Obama justification for outlawing private firearms ownership among law-abiding citizens.
From the LA Times:
At the Inland Regional Center, where she's a nurse, the staff works with clients and parents of clients who are sometimes angry. They have active-shooter drills every month or so.
"Drill started," she texted her husband, Mark, around 11 a.m.
She walked to a window nearby and filmed a video as law enforcement sprinted toward the building.
Astronomically unlucky shooters?
Yes, this woman actually texted, "Drill started." She recognized the pattern of movement that law enforcement has drilled countless times before. It's the same thing they've been drilling for every single month.
What are the mathematical odds that a building where law enforcement has been "active shooter" drilling month after month would be randomly hit by active shooters? Nearly zero, of course. Similarly, of all the buildings in Los Angeles, how many are used by police as training grounds for monthly shooting drills? Virtually zero.
Maybe these active shooters are just incredibly, astronomically unlucky, huh? They chose to be active shooters in the exact same building where LA law enforcement has been training in active shooting drills for months!
Anyone who believes this is sheer coincidence is delusional.
"They know it's going to happen..."
That same LA Times story quotes the woman's husband:
Mark Vong said he told his wife to stay calm and not to panic.
"They train for this," he said, standing outside a police barricade Wednesday afternoon. "They know it's going to happen."
Of course they know it's going to happen! They've been drilling the scenario for months!
How blatant do these staged shootings have to get before people wake up and realize it's all a tragic manipulation of public emotions in order to confiscate guns from private citizens and unleash an Obama totalitarian regime that will soon be handed off to Hillary Clinton for the "full tyranny" crackdown?

ACTIVE SHOOTER EXERCISE
VVC students help law enforcement in campus drill

VICTORVILLE — San Bernardino County Sheriff's deputies, unloaded guns drawn, shouted “Get down! Get on the ground!” as they cleared the Victor Valley College library on Monday morning during an active shooter exercise.
Meanwhile, students with pretend injuries acted as victims of a campus shooting.
Staff and students received advance notice of the drill, in which the VVC Police Department joined the county Sheriff’s Department, Fire Department and American Medical Response.
As the sound of gunshots blared through a speaker playing a looped soundtrack, students of the VVC Corrections, Paramedic and Fire academies were given their assignments in the practice scenario.
About a half-dozen students sported torn and bloodied clothing and some fake flesh wounds. They awaited help until the all clear was given by officials, and students were able to assess and treat their wounds after escorting them from the building.
“Just as if this were a real shooting, what we’re doing now is pulling out everyone who’s not a suspect from the building,” campus police officer D.H. Jones said as the "victims" emerged from the library. They were led to the parking lot behind it, where emergency vehicles waited.
San Bernardino, CA — An active shooter situation is currently underway in the 1300 block of South Waterman Avenue in San Bernardino, California.
The shooting apparently took place at the Inland Regional Center, which is a facility that provides services for people who have developmental disabilities. The facility had just celebrated its Christmas party.
While details are scarce, what we have been told by authorities is that police are looking for 1-3 shooters and there are approximately 20 victims, with 12 being presumed dead.
Fox Los Angeles reports that the suspects are “white males” in “military gear” and armed with “rifles.” According to KTLA, police have warned people not to talk to the media. At one point during the KTLA live stream, the reporter attempted to interview a witness and multiple officers rushed up and pushed the reporters and the witnesses apart. Below is a screen grab from the live stream showing confrontation.

After the shooting began, San Bernardino Police Department Lt. Richard Lawhead said that their SWAT team happened to be conducting training nearby. The team was suited, “ready to roll” and responded rapidly, Lawhead said.
A
federal judge has ruled against the NSA’s controversial collection of
Americans’ phone records. The program was set to expire by the end of
the month, but the ruling is considered a victory for civil liberties
because it sets a legal precedent.
In his ruling on Monday, Judge Richard Leon of the US District Court reiterated his assertion that the NSA’s program “likely violates the Constitution” and said that “the loss of constitutional freedoms for even one day is a significant harm.”
In
doing so, he sided with conservative legal activist Larry Klayman,
whose clients had sued the NSA over its data collection following the
revelations of whistleblower of Edward Snowden in 2013. “This
court simply cannot, and will not, allow the government to trump the
Constitution merely because it suits the exigencies of the moment,’’ Leon wrote in his 43-page decision.
Klayman said that winning the case is a “tremendous victory for the American people.” He added that Leon is one of the few judges in the country who “has
the guts to stand in the breach for the American people during a period
of time where their government is running roughshod over them."
Klayman also said that he will continue the fight and seek monetary damages from the government.
Federal
agents who illegally detain, interrogate and torture American citizens
abroad can't be held accountable for violating the Constitution.
A
divided federal appeals court on Friday tossed the lawsuit of a
U.S. citizen who claimed the FBI trampled his rights for four months
across three African countries while he was traveling overseas.
In so many words, the U.S. Court of Appeals for the District of Columbia Circuit ruled that the man, Amir Meshal, couldn't sue the federal government for such violations, and punted the issue to someone else.
"If
people like Meshal are to have recourse to damages for alleged
constitutional violations committed during a terrorism investigation
occurring abroad, either Congress or the Supreme Court must specify the
scope of the remedy," Judge Janice Rogers Brown wrote for the 2-to-1
court.
Meshal's case had drawn support from a number of law professors, along with present and former United
Nations special rapporteurs on torture, who had hoped the court would
help clarify when the U.S. can be made to answer for abuses abroad.
At issue in the case was a 1971 decision by the U.S. Supreme Court, Bivens v. Six Unknown Unnamed Agents, which
found for the first time that the Constitution allows citizens to hold
liable federal officials who violate their rights -- even if Congress
hadn't expressly passed a law to that effect.
Thousands rally against Erdogan as Turkey mourns deadliest attack

Raw: Thousands Mourn Victims of Ankara Blast
Ankara
(AFP) - Thousands of mourners filled the streets of Ankara Sunday and
vented their anger at President Recep Tayyip Erdogan after 97 people
were killed in the country's worst-ever terror attack, while the
government raced to identify the two male suicide bombers it blamed for
the bloodshed.
Flags flew at half-mast across Turkey on the first
of three days of national mourning declared by Prime Minister Ahmet
Davutoglu, as questions grew over who could have ordered Saturday's
bombings on a peace rally in Ankara.
Turkey's
pro-Kurdish Peoples' Democratic Party (HDP), one of the groups that had
organised the rally, said it believes the death toll now stands at 128.
The
attacks have raised tensions in Turkey just three weeks before snap
elections are due on November 1 and as the military wages an offensive
against Islamic State (IS) jihadists and Kurdish militants.
With
the country on edge, Erdogan issued a statement condemning the "heinous"
bombings and cancelled a planned visit to Turkmenistan but he has yet
to speak in public since the attack that shocked the nation.
On
Sunday, thousands of demonstrators thronged central Ankara's Sihhiye
Square, close to the blast site by the city's main train station, to pay
tribute to the victims.

Many
of those gathered accused the government of failing to provide security
at the ill-fated rally and several anti-government demonstrators
shouted "Erdogan murderer" and "government resign!"
"I am a
mother, I'm worried about my grandchildren, I am marching for our
children, for our future. Each time there are people dead, I also die a
little," said Zahide, who like many others carried a pink carnation
flower to commemorate the victims.
The premier's office said 97
people were killed when the bombs exploded just after 10:00 am (0700
GMT) as leftist and pro-Kurdish activists assembled for the rally.
It added that 507 people were wounded, with 160 still in hospital and 65 in intensive care in 19 hospitals.
An
AFP correspondent said the scene of the blast was littered with ball
bearings, indicating the explosions were intended to cause maximum
damage.

Fury towards Erdogan intensifies after Ankara attack

Ankara
(AFP) - Anger towards President Recep Tayyip Erdogan over Turkey's
worst-ever terrorist attack intensified as authorities raced to identify
the two male suicide bombers it blamed for the bloodshed.
The
streets of Ankara filled with anti-government and pro-Kurdish protesters
accusing the government of responsibility for the blast that ripped
through a peace rally a day earlier, with several shouting "Erdogan
murderer" and "government resign!"
In Istanbul on Saturday, a
10,000-strong crowd accused the government of failing to protect
citizens by providing security for the event, carrying placards reading
"the state is a killer" and "we know the murderers".
As
tributes poured in from world leaders, Selahattin Demirtas, leader of
the Peoples' Democratic Party (HDP), was cited as saying "State attacked
the people. Condolences recipient should be the people not Erdogan" on
the party's Twitter account.
In
an emotional address to mourners in Ankara, Demirtas said that citizens
should aim to end Erdogan's rule, starting with the upcoming
legislative elections.
"We
are not going to act out of revenge and hatred. But we are going to ask
for (people to be held to) account," he added, saying the vote would be
part of a process to "topple the dictator."

At least 100 people have been arrested in Brussels, where
hundreds more protested against TTIP, an impending free trade deal
between the US and the EU, as the next round of TTIP talks approaches.
Roads were paralyzed in
the Belgian capital as a force of more than 600 activists descended on
EU headquarters, blocking traffic and the venue of the EU leaders summit
in protest against the Transatlantic Trade and Investment Partnership
(TTIP).
People carried signs and chanted slogans such as “Stop TTIP, stop austerity” and "Sorry for the inconvenience. We're trying to save the world," at the march in Brussels on Thursday. "TTIP is death" another sign read. One group of protesters displayed a balloon ‘Trojan Horse’ as an allegory for the deal.
While people were in a daze of reverie following the lunar eclipse and the Pope’s U.S. visit, a very important yet overlooked announcement was made by the Department of Justice.
“Launch of Strong Cities Network to Strengthen Community Resilience Against Violent Extremism”
rang the bell to usher in a global-local initiative to ferret out
extremism at the local level – yes, in the United States. Symbolically,
it could also signal a turning point when it comes to local authorities
and their treatment of the residents at large. Indeed, it is a global enmeshment that most Americans are either a) in the total dark about, or b) going hysterical over, if they’ve heard about it.
Honestly,
either of those reactions is understandable when you start digging into
the announcements and its sponsors only to find the typical convoluted,
global-psycho-babble that signals to the astute that they are about to
lose their rights and be perceived as domestic terrorists. But can
anyone really say for sure? Of course not. Not when the message is written in Newspeak gibberish.
What is the Strong Cities Network and why did some U.S. cities join up?
On
the face of it, SCN is to strengthen the bond between cities in the
U.S. and global cities in the fight against violent extremism,
internationally and at the local level. It will funnel help to local
authorities of those cities which hop on board.
Stockton Mayor Anthony Silva’s Statement On Detainment At San Francisco Airport
STOCKTON
(CBS13) — The following is Stockton Mayor Anthony Silva’s statement on
his detainment at San Francisco International Airport on Monday and the
seizure of his electronic devices after a trip to China.
My name is Anthony R. Silva, and I am the Mayor of Stockton, California.
On Saturday September 28 (sic),
2015 I attended a Mayor’s Conference to China to promote “good will”
between the China and the United States. The trip was hosted and
sponsored by China Silicon Valley and the primary goal was to promote
our Cities and investment opportunities. I had a wonderful experience on
this trip. Upon my return on Monday September 28, 2015, I was briefly
detained by the Department of Homeland Security. They searched my
belongings. A few minutes later, (2) DHS agents confiscated all my
electronic devices including my personal cell phone. Unfortunately, they
were not willing or able to produce a search warrant or any court
documents suggesting they had a legal right to take my property. In
addition they were persistent about requiring my passwords for all
devices. Although they were reluctant at first to present their badge
and credentials; they eventually showed me their identification and gave
me a business card. They indicated that this action to confiscate
personal property at the airport was in fact routine and not unusual.
They promised to return my items within a few days. They also mentioned
that I had no right for a lawyer to be present and being a United States
Citizen did not entitle me to rights that I probably thought.
Stockton,
California Mayor Anthony R. Silva attended a recent mayor's conference
in China, but his return trip took a bit longer than usual. At the San
Francisco International Airport (SFO) this week,
agents with the Department of Homeland Security detained Silva and
confiscated his personal cell phone among other electronics. According
to comments from the mayor, that may not even be the most alarming part.
“Unfortunately,
they were not willing or able to produce a search warrant or any court
documents suggesting they had a legal right to take my property," Silva
told SFGate. "In addition, they were persistent about requiring my passwords for all devices.”
The
mayor's attorney, Mark Reichel, told SFGate that Silva was not allowed
to leave the airport without forfeiting his passwords. Reichel was not
present for Silva's interaction with the DHS agents, either. The mayor
was told he had “no right for a lawyer to be present” and that being a
US citizen did not “entitle me to rights that I probably thought,”
according to the paper.
Aaron
and Melissa Klein were ordered to pay $135,000 for refusing to bake a
cake for a same-sex wedding. (Photo: Patchbay Media/The Daily Signal)
The
agency that ordered Aaron and Melissa Klein to pay $135,000 in damages
for refusing to bake a cake for a same-sex couple began the legal
process last week to seize the money the Oregon bakers are refusing to
pay.
“Our agency has docketed the judgment and is exploring
collection options,” Charlie Burr, communications director for the
agency, told The Daily Signal. “They are entitled to a full and fair
review of the case, but do not have the right to disregard a legally
binding order.”
Docketing the judgment is a preliminary step the
agency must take in order to seize the Kleins’ house, property, or other
assets in lieu of payment.
On July 2, Brad Avakian, commissioner
of the Oregon Bureau of Labor and Industries, ordered the Kleins to pay
$135,000 for the emotional, physical, and psychological damages they
caused Rachel and Laurel Bowman-Cryer for refusing to make a wedding
cake.

Oregon
Labor Commissioner Brad Avakian finalized a preliminary ruling today
ordering Aaron and Melissa Klein, the bakers who refused to make a cake
for a same-sex wedding, to pay $135,000 in emotional damages to the
couple they denied service.
“This case is not about a wedding cake or a marriage,” Avakian wrote. “It is about a business’s refusal to serve someone because of their sexual orientation. Under Oregon law, that is illegal.” >>> Related: Colo. Bakery Makes Case for Not ‘Expressing’ Support for Same-Sex Marriage
In
the ruling, Avakian placed an effective gag order on the Kleins,
ordering them to “cease and desist” from speaking publicly about not
wanting to bake cakes for same-sex weddings based on their Christian
beliefs.
“This effectively strips us of all our First Amendment
rights,” the Kleins, owners of Sweet Cakes by Melissa, which has since
closed, wrote on their Facebook page. “According to the state of Oregon we neither have freedom of religion or freedom of speech.”
The
Daily Signal has exclusively learned that the government agency
responsible for enforcing Oregon’s anti-discrimination law appears to be
working closely with a powerful gay rights advocacy group in its case
against Aaron and Melissa Klein, owners of Sweet Cakes by Melissa.
Communications between the agency, the Oregon Bureau of Labor and Industries, and the LGBT organization, Basic Rights Oregon,
raise questions about potential bias in the state’s decision to charge
the Kleins with discrimination for refusing to make a cake for a
same-sex wedding.
In April, a judge for the agency recommended the Kleins be fined $135,000.
Communications
obtained through a public records request show employees of the Oregon
Bureau of Labor and Industries—which pursued the case against the
Kleins—participating in phone calls, texting, and attending meetings
with Basic Rights Oregon, the largest LGBT advocacy group in the state.
Anti-pipeline
activist Allen Schreiber of Lincoln wears a shirt inscribed with
slogans opposing the Keystone XL pipeline during a rally outside the
State Capitol in Lincoln, Neb.
TransCanada, the
Calgary-based company behind the controversial Keystone XL pipeline, has
backed out of a lawsuit filed by more than 100 Nebraska landowners, the
company announced Tuesday.
The energy company had been trying to
gain access to private land along the proposed path of the tar sands
pipeline, but had been held up legally by landowners who were opposed to
letting the pipeline through their land. Now, instead of trying to gain
access to that land through legal means, TransCanada will apply for a
permit for Keystone XL with Nebraska’s Public Service Commission.
TransCanada says
the decision will bring more certainty to Keystone XL’s route through
Nebraska. But it also could cause further delays for the project, as a
PSC approval can take a year or longer.
Previously, TransCanada
sought to avoid the PSC approval process, choosing instead to give the
state’s governor final approval over the project’s application in
Nebraska. The law that gave the company the ability to choose was
heavily challenged in court, but ultimately upheld.
So
many politicians blatantly push for policies that harm all of us, just
because the special interests that fund their campaigns want them to.
Because
of this, Congress tries to hide -- taking vague positions, pushing for
watered down legislation, or remaining silent at critical moments.
This
week, they’re expected to renew debate on CISA, the Cybersecurity
Information Sharing Act, a bill that would give corporations sweeping
legal immunity when they share your data with the government.
Now more than ever, it’s so important that we don’t let our lawmakers hide in the shadows.
P.S.
As much as we’ve talked about how bad CISA is for expanding mass
surveillance, there’s another side to the law that just made it even
worse. Late last week, Senator Sheldon Whitehouse of Rhode Island
introduced an amendment to expand the Computer Fraud and Abuse Act, the
law that has been used time and again to persecute digital activists,
including our friend Aaron Swartz. That’s despicable, and needs to be quashed immediately — so take action now to help kill CISA.
