www.infowars.com Like other reporters in the Austin-area, the Infowars team was immediately sent to the Texas Capitol building on news that a man, identified as Fausto Cardenas, had started shooting for no apparent reason. There wasn’t much else to discover once we got there. The suspect had apparently harmed no one and State Troopers were quietly combing over the South steps with their investigation. I had catalogued everything going on behind the roped-off area and wandered around the other side of the Capitol to film another grouping of troopers who were combing the grounds with a (presumab 3:59 PM(presumably bomb-sniffing) dog. When a trooper noticed me filming their quiet investigation, everything suddenly changed. Though the building itself was closed, the Capitol grounds remained open, and people were milling about freely. Only the area immediately surrounding the South steps was restricted by yellow tape. Yet this officer approached me sternly, pointing his finger and commanding that I ‘point the camera somewhere else’ and provide ID. I refused. For those who have forgotten, in the haze of post-9/11 paranoia, America is not a ‘papers please’ dictatorship or a corrupt banana republic, even if certain forces are might attempt to drag us in that direction. So why did this officer feel the need to rush up and demand I justify myself? Were I suspected of a crime as benign as speeding such action might have been warranted, but I had literally done nothing but look in …
We need to start sending bills $x for x hours for my time as a film maker.
When in doubt wipe out 9-11 excuse.
ahaah yooooooooooo hommies
some one 6,7 o craaaap some one 3,4,6 o meeeen some one 3 million then and 30 cents
@CognitiveDisonance Don’t worry, most “peace” officers only know the sum of the law, they aren’t charged in learning how to apply it, thats what we call law school. They arrest on a blatant act, reported act, or permission from a lawyer and judge, which the two latter have more schooling and training in inpterpretation and aplication than a LEO does.
@Marleyites Can I just thank you on knowing we’re a Republic? That drives me insane that people fail to realize that.
@Jllucky8 And it took _how_ many years for the Supreme Court to strike down the Texas sodomy law? They all get reversed or dismantled sooner or later if the law is constitutionally wrong.
The cops in amerika are being supplied with amphetamines and steroids. You only need to look at their eyes and their confusion and misplaced anger. They are instructed to act like thugs with the public instead of just being normal people. The second cop although he has the same steroidal look about him probably didn’t do his dose that morning or was told to just defuse the idiotic situation. The black cop struggled to breath normally and couldn’t even get his call signs right from his confusion.
This is also a result of the lowering of IQ standards to get people to join the forces around the country. The LAPD here are braindead. I have yet to meet a single one who is a normal person. They are all constantly nervous, eyes darting around, confusion reigns when they are asked simple questions. They are NOT instructed on law or encouraged to read it. They are trained that everyone is a terrorist, hence the patented question “Do you know what 9/11 means?” Dumbed down so that is all they know
@neondeath07 “I pledge allegiance to the flag of the United States of America & to the REPUBLIC for which it stands, one nation, under God, with Liberty and Justice for all.” Greta Van Sustern & Sarah Palin were chatting it up; Palin called our country a democracy. Van Sus didn’t sus that out, slid right by. Barry Soetero calls us democracy. WTF? When was the underlying form of our gov changed? By what lawful means did that happen? How were We the People notified? Boycott big-everything. Now.
@Jllucky8 please provide even one scientific / medical study showing cannabis smoke harms the lungs. just as I stated, Dr. Tashkin, hired by fed gov, found no harm from cannabis smoke. that’s support for my position. I’m curious to see the support you provide for your position. Or, likely, b/c you insinuate that I use cannabis & such use causes “alternate reality” the reality is you spread propaganda with absolutely NO support for your position. We’ll see.
@Marleyites I sent you a Harvard study, our dialogue ended months ago but I suppose you were too stoned to realize that.
@Marleyites It’s funny how you need “proof” that inhaling smoke is not healthy….
@Jllucky8 why is it “funny” to ask for support for your assertion? I provided evidence for what I stated. The fed gov hired dr. Tashkin to prove that inhaling cannabis smoke was harmful. Contrary, he found that smoked cannabis actually stopped tumor growth. Now, you say it’s unhealthy, that’s contrary to fed gov-hired doctors & many other researchers, listed in my other posts here. So, where’s your support?
@Jllucky8 Sorry, I didn’t get any studies from you.
@Jllucky8 @Jllucky8 The only link to a so-called “harvard study” was from the same Dr. Tashkin I cited in my comments. The link in your email was to dead page, b/c that research (or whatever it was) is now outdated due to Dr. Tashkin’s more recent research showing cannabis smoking did not cause any lung disturbance & actually slowed tumor growth. You cite 1996 or 97 research? What a joke. People who speak w/o background in what they speak about are AKA “fool.” Or maybe shill is more like it.
@Marleyites The link was not dead, your brain well thats another story. If it’s “dead” page how do you know Tashin is in it? The link doesn’t say that. I have sent you another, more recent study from NIDA. Many of the same finding, none good. But lets face it, it doesn’t matter how many I send, all you need is one positive report from a quack and your sold. Go back to your world of delusions, sheriff, lawyer or whatever you are today. P.S. it slowed tumor growth because it KILLS cells, genius.
@Jllucky8 You didn’t send a “study” you sent an article with 1 link to a so-called study. “Pages 33-51 of this address can be found at the website of the Indiana Prevention Resource Center at Indiana University, located at [link here] tashkin- marijuana [dot] html.” follow the link: Page is not available anymore. You’re saying Dr. Tashkin is a quack? He’s the author of the page you sent & fed gov hired him. sounds like you need a big fat spliff.
I have a few questions to the person who filmed this video.
Did you film the entire video? If you did you have some really newsworthy
video although the camera was jumping around. Not sure what kind of camera you are using.
Also, Why don’t you guys carry press credentials ? Not saying the trooper was right but if you are working in the media it would make your job much easier if you had it visible.
@Marleyites Dr. Tashkin was the author of the study synopsis, who has proven my point. Who called him a quack? You see? I chose Tashkin because you praise him! That weed is seriously effecting your short term memory. And since no article is good enough for you, do you really think inhaling burning vegetation is somehow good for you? It’s amazing how far a pot head activist will go to try to prove the most outrageous of points….
@Jllucky8 Tashkin proved that cannabis does not harm the lungs. you need to do better research to find up to date data and interpret the studies. Like Dr. Bob Melamede states, many people have bad short term memory even without cannabis. You are a perfect example of someone trying to push an agenda by bully tactics, name calling & innuendo, because you don’t have the science for back up. Childish & irrelevant slurs against me? Just do good research, the rest falls into place.
@Marleyites Marijuana contains some of the highest cancer causing substances known. It contains carbon monoxide, carbon dioxide, acetone, benzene, toluene, vinyl chloride, dimethylnitrosamine, methylethylnitrosamine, benz(a)anthracene, benz(a)pyrene, ammonia, hydrogen cyanide, etc etc. Look this up, it’s fact. Come back and tell me smoking weed won’t hurt you, you are more ignorant than I thought, telling people inhaling smoke isn’t bad, stay off YOUTUBE you are lowering the IQ of the readers
@Jllucky8 Quote: “UCLA’s Tashkin studied heavy marijuana smokers to determine whether the use led to increased risk of lung cancer and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, or COPD. He had hypothesized that there would be a definitive link between cancer and marijuana smoking, yet the results proved otherwise. … (cont.)
@Jllucky8 Quote: “UCLA’s Tashkin studied heavy marijuana smokers to determine whether the use led to increased risk of lung cancer and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, or COPD. He had hypothesized that there would be a definitive link between cancer and marijuana smoking, yet the results proved otherwise.”What we found instead was no association and even a suggestion of some protective effect,” says Tashkin, whose research was the largest case-control study ever conducted. … (cont.)
(cont. Pt 2)The study was funded by the National Institutes of Health. Tobacco smokers in the study had as much as a 21-fold increase in lung cancer risk. Cigarette smokers, too, developed COPD more often in the study, and researchers found that marijuana did not impair lung function. Tashkin, supported by other research, concluded that the active ingredient THC, has an “anti- tumoral effect” in which “cells die earlier before they age enough to develop mutations that might lead to lung cancer.”
