There is quite a few videos online with farmers talking about what happen between them and Monsanto in court. Apparently the farmer has no case to fight because they were caught red handed. Using the excuse that mother nature did it doesn't work either. The whole court is a fiasco and Monsanto calls the shots the Judges in the cases could care less what the defendant has to say. You are guilty and that is that. Farms have been forced into bankruptcy, and families put on the street. Because of the damages awarded to Monsanto.

I am glad someone is trying to stop this crap from happening but Samson is fighting Goliath. I just hope they know what they are doing. Goliath could come back to haunt them.

About a year ago I read an article that said that Facebook was their best friend as well. They were Insurance fraud investigators, Bill collectors.

Under New Zealand extradition law, those arrested will face extradition only if:

        i. the conduct as it occurred in the jurisdiction of New Zealand it would have been an offense under New Zealand law; and

        ii. the offense would have been punishable by 12 months imprisonment or more.

I would like to see about half of the Internet participate in a blackout. Big companies! 24 hour blackout. Because this is the only way to open eyes. But a blackout at slashdot wont work unless you are part of the bigger picture.

More and more of them want people to work for them for free. Fire the crew, and open it to the public to fill the void. Got pictures? Send them in! CNN did this. Although they wont admit to it. They fired/laid off and it looks like their ireporters are doing their jobs for nothing. Collecting environmental pictures is fine but I wonder how insurance companies will deal with the risk takers going after pictures in hazard areas? Who exactly will reimburse the ones getting the risky pictures if something bad happens?

No One will because they will claim that you acted on your own. Woe you. But a smart move by the Environmental Protection Agency.

Until now the TSA did not have to conform to the USERRA. So if you were called to active duty your job was not guaranteed to be there when you got back. http://www.armytimes.com/news/2011/12/military-tsa-userra-hiring-protections-121411w/ That was a really bad thing for the TSA's to do. Next in line is the TSA itself. Their employees are called officers. I hate that they are called officers. it is an insult to real cops who went through years of college, and training to earn their badge. TSA employees go through a few weeks of training from what I understand. Most of their training I believe is on site training. No college degree necessary to have a badge. Their uniform looks like a cops, their badge looks like a cops, and they are addressed as officers. Read more here: http://thehill.com/blogs/floor-action/house/198357-house-gop-looks-to-strip-tsa-screeners-of-officer-title?page=16 I am all for stripping them of this title, the badge, and the uniform stripe.

All the TSA did was create a new job to pay a bunch of people to look good and tough, and OMG "Don't we look, and act scary!" Now they are unionized. From what I gather about their employees the job is crap, and they don't stay too long.

"What changed meanwhile?"

Nothing changed they still kill, steal, and rape. Only difference is today they may use religion to make it "right", or "OK to do".
