CORRUPTION SUCKS BLOG

Save Troy Davis' life The state of Georgia is taking steps to put Troy Davis to death. The case against him consisted of witness testimony that was full of inconsistencies. Since then, all but two of the state’s non-police witnesses from the trial have recanted their testimony —  and many have sworn in affidavits that police pressured or coerced them into testifying or signing statements. There is still serious doubt as to Troy Davis’ guilt, and  by putting him to death Georgia runs the risk of killing an innocent man.  Please call on the board to save Troy Davis’ life. And pass this on. Troy Davis needs as many of us as possible to speak up. No physical evidence. 7 of 9 witnesses changed their story. Stop #TroyDavis' execution: http://bit.ly/dKe19X @colorofchange It's not often that you could literally save a life by signing a petition.  This is one of those times. Last week we told you about Troy Davis, who could be put to death as soon as next month -- desp

Our community just won an important and hard-fought victory.  After more than 285,000 people spoke out, leading to a loss of over 300 advertisers from his top-rated show, Glenn Beck's program on Fox News Channel will come to an end this year. 1 This is huge. Beck's record of race-baiting is virtually unsurpassed among mainstream media figures, and Fox News has continued to give him a platform -- until now. We launched our campaign against Beck in July of 2009 after he topped a week of race-baiting directed at President Obama with the most stunning statement of them all— he called Obama a "racist" who has "a deep-seated hatred for white people, or the white culture." Within days we approached Fox News' advertisers, asking them to stop supporting Beck's poisonous statements with their dollars. Nearly 300,000 people signed statements that we presented to advertisers. Thousands of others made phone calls when our staff's calls and member com

American Triracial Isolates: Their Status and Pertinence to Genetic Research Eugenics Quarterly Volume 4, Issue 4 (December 1957) pages 187-196 (Curteousy of The Melungeon Heritage Assoication) Calvin L. Beale  (1923-2008) United States Department of Agriculture In the 1950 Census of Population, 50,000 American Indians are listed as living in states east of the Mississippi River . These people do not constitute the sole biological legacy of the aboriginal population once found in the East, of course. The remnants of many tribes were removed west of the Mississippi where they retain their tribal identity today. Nor is it uncommon to meet Easterners, thoroughly Caucasian in appearance and racial status, who boast of an Indian ancestor in the dim past. Other intfusio9ns of Indian blood were absorbed into the Negro population, and in this context may also be referred to with pride even if they afford no differential social status. It is another class of people, howeve

REPRINTED BY MULTIPLE READER REQUESTS: (UPDATE) Officer Parker has been fired from the City of Little Rock Police Department. At about 3pm January 26, 2009, Officer Jamie Parker received the surprise of her life when she showed up for work that day. According to confidential sources, she was informed that she is wanted by the Cabot Police Department for Hot Checks (*contested ) and driving with a suspended license.
