What’s interesting in the news today?

Open Thread, so feel free to chime in with some of your own.

I guess we start with the California Manhunt.

From KFIam640

“Police launched a massive  manhunt Thursday for a former Los Angeles officer suspected of killing a couple  over the weekend and opening fire on four officers early Thursday, killing one  and critically wounding another, authorities said.”

“The Daily Breeze in Torrance  also reports that there was another police shooting nearby involving another  pickup truck, but the driver wasn’t hurt.”

“Dorner, 33, implicated  himself in the killings with a multi-page “manifesto” that he wrote that  included threats against several people, including members of the LAPD, police  said. They gave no further details on the document or its contents.”

Now the story gets even more bizarre when you look at his manifesto. Some are alleging that what’s been released isn’t all of what was sent out, and that what was removed in most press reports was done for political reasons.

From SooperMexican

“However, I started noticing that some of the details the media was talking about didn’t fit the released manifesto I’ve read everywhere. Especially interesting, is that KFI’s morning news regurgitator Bill Handel had mentioned some pro-Obama comments and anti-NRA sentiments in the manifesto.

But these weren’t in the copy that KFI themselves released – see for yourself.

This video from FOX News Los Angeles reports that the manifesto was 22 pages long, while the manifesto released was only 11.”

Now “what’s missing?” is the obvious question.

Just like with that Corkins guy yesterday, it’s all about what motivates him.

The answer, things like this.

Anti-NRA, Loves MSNBC and CNN, Loves Obama, Fan of Joe Biden and Hillary, Loves Piers Morgan, Was Radicalized by Trayvon Martin Propaganda, oh, and he’s Pro Gun Control. I wonder how he feels about the SPLC?

The reporter from KFI says they have been specifically told to post a “redacted” version of the manifesto, in order to protect the names of the police men and women targeted by the murderer. That makes sense. No reason was given as to why the liberal references were also removed. Funny that. I guess we can’t have anyone asking if maybe the rhetoric from the left against the right has lead to these cases.  Meanwhile, the number of violent Tea Party supporters still remains at 0.

Here’s more on the story mentioned above on the victims shot by police while delivering newspapers. A case of mistaken identity, because their vehicles matched the suspect’s.

From TheDailyBreeze

“Twice in the same neighborhood before predawn light Thursday, police officers thought Christopher Dorner was coming at them.

And both times they were wrong.

In two cases of mistaken identity, two people were shot in a sleepy Torrance housing tract by undercover Los Angeles police officers protecting a potential Dorner target, and a third was fired upon by Torrance police responding to the first shooting.”

This next one………  🙄

And remember folks, the slippery slope is a myth.  😉

From YahooNews

“A Florida judge has approved the adoption of a 22-month-old baby girl that will list three people as parents on her birth certificate — a married lesbian couple and a gay man.

The decision ends a two-year paternity fight between the couple and a friend of the women who donated his sperm to father the child but later sought a larger role in the girl’s life.

The ruling means the child’s birth certificate will include a biological father and both women as parents in an unusual arrangement approved recently by a Miami-Dade Circuit Court judge.”

And if the women split up? I guess it’s back to court.

This one? Sorry Cowboys fans, but the truth will set you free. Or something.

Plus, as a Giants fan, it amuses me. 🙂

From TheDallasMorningNews

“Ex-Cowboy Tony Casillas: Forget deer antler spray, ’90s Cowboys used ointment for horses”

“On if PED’s were prevalent during his career:

“When I heard about deer antler spray, I said that’s nothing. We used to use this stuff called DMSO. That’s what veterinarians put on horses’ muscles and we used it in the locker room. We had a bottle and you’d take it. It goes right to the blood stream. I’m not sure about this deer antler stuff, but it was prevalent in our locker room. It’s called DMSO. You get it from the veterinarian. It’s an ointment that’s like anti-inflammatory. You put it on your skin and you put it on a muscle, and I guarantee you, in about 30 minutes you’d feel great. If you’re going to talk about the deer antler stuff, we used DMSO and people knew it. Everyone knew about it.””

Hmmmmmmm………   Didn’t they win 3 championships in the 90’s? 😯

Cheaters! 🙂

Don’t worry, I have some good news too. 🙂

From TheChicagoSunTimes

“Sneed has learned a plea deal is now on the table between former Rep. Jesse Jackson Jr. and federal authorities probing allegations of campaign fund misuse.

Sneed is told the plea deal includes Jackson serving time in federal prison.”

““Significant jail time is now definitely a part of the deal,” said a top Sneed source close to the probe.

“But I think [Jackson’s wife] Sandi, feels like she was thrown under the bus by her husband, ” now that a separate probe has begun on her, a second source added.”

So does he get a pardon or not?
