After 7 long years, jewelry and handbags left in courtroom, cuffs on, nearly the entire lot off to jail. Statements by Al Sharpton and Erik Holder at eleven.

It's not over DV. So ends phase one, the courtroom theatrics and symbolism, complete with weepy judge. They'll all be given paid leaves by the school district whilst they pursue their appeals. All convictions overturned by the end of the year would be my guess. One must remember, this is Fulton Country.

Besoeker hit the nail on the head. Was it Pope who was found guilty last year for rigging contracts an sentenced to prison in Atlanta? Either way his case was overturned on appeal. They look up to the Chicago/Detroit style politice round here. Just watchin from the sideline in Douglas county.

Colonial, white jurisprudence is not applicable here. It's tribal Sharia by some other name. There are generally severe consequences for losing a war. Sherman twisted railroad rails around trees on his way out of town. Things is still twisted as they say.
[Hurriyet} Turkish Prime Minister Ahmet Davutoğlu has promised that the government will tolerate no street demonstrations "whoever they are and whatever their intent is," while chiding elements of the media and the opposition over the March 31 slaying of a prosecutor.
Wednesday Davutoğlu said, "There will be no toleration, not even for a minute, of those who go out [to protest] on the street without permission, threatening the country’s security, whoever they are and whatever their intent is," at the massive funeral for slain prosecutor Mehmet Selim Kiraz, who was taken hostage by two assailants before being killed during their confrontation with the police in Istanbul.
The prime minister blasted several media outlets for printing photographs of the assailants holding a gun to the prosecutor's head. While giving no details about the police operation against the two assailants, Şafak Yayla and Bahtiyar Doğruyol, Davutoğlu said that they had uncovered international phone calls made by the two gunmen, purportedly exposing their links abroad.
Meanwhile, Davutoğlu also castigated two opposition leaders for not showing up to the funeral. He said, "I call on politicians to review [their choices]. Bahçeli and Kılıçdaroğlu were not here. Those who do not stand with the people in their painful days cannot play a role in their future."
[Townhall] The Justice Department will not seek criminal contempt charges against former IRS official Lois Lerner, the central figure in a scandal that erupted over whether the tax agency improperly targeted conservative political groups.
Ronald Machen, the former U.S. attorney for the District of Columbia, told House Speaker John Boehner (R-Ohio) in a seven-page letter this week that he would not bring a criminal case to a grand jury over Lerner's refusal to testify before the House Oversight and Government Reform Committee in March 2014. The House approved a criminal contempt resolution against Lerner in May 2014, and Machen's office has been reviewing the issue since then.
Lerner and other IRS officials, however, are still under investigation by the FBI for the tea party targeting matter -- which is a separate probe entirely.

And all opposition to government cowers because they are under onslaught from every direction as tax man, gay nazi, education institutions, and more foreigners arrive all at once.

It is not coincidental that the Menendez/Lerner decisions are announced so close together. The message to any who are remotely sentient is" the tools of power will be used to punish enemies and protect our own!" The idea that justice and the rule of law are operative is now truly mere theater for the rubes.

Offcially FGM was non-existent in Arabia. Officially because there is ayt least one haddith in which Muhammad praises a woman whose job is mutilator. But FGM is common in Yeamn and and that is official.
Now I don't know how close are Arabs and Yemenites. Amercicans are very different from Mexicans and to a lesser degree from Canadians.
[Jerusalem Press] Iran's Foreign Minister Mohammad Javad Zarif said Tehran declared Thursday "no agreement will be signed today and the six world powers are not due to sign any agreement today" despite P5+1 comments that a deal "is close but elusive."
Zarif added there might be a joint statement by midnight "if everything goes well."
Iran has made mincemeat of President Barack Obama's threat to "walk away" from the negotiations if a framework agreement was night signed by midnight March 31. In the end, the president phoned U.S. Secretary of State John Kerry and Secretary of Energy Earnest Moniz to tell them to hang in there if there were signs of progress.
Obama sounded tough in the American media, which said that the president told his representatives in Lausanne to tell Iran they indeed would "walk way" and leave sanctions in place, figuring that threat might make Iran a bit more flexible.

So the Mad Mullahs get to continue their nuke program while keeping Obummer and his little puppy dog Kerry busy in Switzerland. There was never any stick at the end of the carrot and the Iranians knew it. Oh well, I'm sure Kerry's hotel is five star luxury.

Bwahahahahahah!! ROFL stop it you're killing me. Obola sounds like he's auditioning for the Daily Show's host job.
Now I'm going to cringe as this deserves.
What are the better odds A) full scale war in the Mid East before Barry leaves office; or B) Continual disintegration of any vestige of Civilization between Israel & India?

Maybe the ONE will get frustrated and in a snit and bomb them. He does have trouble with people who don't agree with him--he tends to be vindictive.

"I am pleased to announce that we have reached an understanding of a framework upon which future frank discussions and plans will be based toward a demarche mutually agreeable to both sides and which will lead to regional stabilization under cooperation by all parties. The table will be rectangular, the dimensions of which are still under development. Based upon that progress, all sanctions will be immediately lifted"

I'll suggest that from Iran's perspective this isn't about their nuclear program - nobody is threatening them with nukes - it is about getting the sanctions lifted, Then an Iran once more flush with cash can ramp up its proxy wars in Syria, Yemen, Iraq, etc. and march on to Shiia dominance of the muslim Middle East.

From Iran's perspective, possession of nukes will give their oligarchy a grip on power that will be very difficult to break, regardless of the downward demographic spiral the Iranian population is in.
