It wasn't my party and I wouldn't be too quick to draw conclusions. Remember what happened last time...
White supremacy is 'most lethal threat' to the US, DHS draft assessment says
Wow, and your proof of that is a tweet from such a reliable source - the man who's made 20,000+ documented lies since he was elected president three and a half years ago. Oh and his source is the Russian guy who helped him win four years ago and who, the CIA warned just today, is leading a propaganda effort against Joe Biden, to reelect Trump. I see...
Just keep drinking the Kool Aid from the Russian propaganda cup. Might as well stomp on that red, white and blue flag.
If you don't think the FBI and CIA should or has the right to investigate Russian (or any other country's) attempts to covertly provide assistance to a presidential (or any political) campaign, their attempts to organize demonstrations and social media posts while posing as american citizens and their attempts to hack into state voting systems in a plot to rig the results, then you don't deserve to call yourself a patriot and you disgrace the flag you pretend to worship.
Interesting post on the First Bitcoin Board from Planetaryfuture...
First Bitcoin Post # 21593
Here's the gist...
EU to see comprehensive crypto regulation by 2024
The European Union, or EU, plans to incorporate crypto and blockchain technology into its main processes by 2024. “By 2024, the EU should put in place a comprehensive framework enabling the uptake of distributed ledger technology (DLT) and crypto-assets in the financial sector [...] It should also address the risks associated with these technologies.”
Over the next four years, the economic union aims to firm up fresh regulations that will promote blockchain and digital asset usage for international money transfers, according to internal documents that Reuters reported on Friday.
The documents detailed:
Finding that almost 80% of its population transacts in paper money, the European Commission, the union's governing entity, wants to see digital payments become more common, while aiming for immediate transaction times, Reuters explained.
The commission's reported aims include a desire for increased data access, financial activities availability — all while aiming for increased efficiency. “By 2024, the principle of passporting and a one-stop shop licensing should apply in all areas which hold strong potential for digital finance,” the documents noted. Over the next year, fast transaction avenues will likely take over, Reuters added.
Although the COVID-19 pandemic may have expedited the desire for digital payments across the globe, blockchain and crypto assets have been the talk of the regulatory town, with many countries looking toward central bank digital currencies to streamline their payments infrastructures.
Do you have a link to a source for that statement?
The whole world is racing to develop a vaccine against the Trump virus. Trump has nothing to do with it. Don't say he's easing regulations. The FDA already had ways to fast track a vaccine or any other medication if it was needed to save lives. Any President in this situation would do whatever they could to expedite the beurachracy. Unfortunately, no one trusts this asshole to not cut corners that would jeopardize the safety of anyone who receives the vaccine. You can thank the fact that he's documented to have told over 20,000 lies during his presidency.
If you want to argue that the sources for that are biased, how about a more conservative estimate from our friends at the Toronto Star (Canada in case you can't figure that out). This is over a year old and they are much more lenient about what they consider a lie...
The first 5,276 false things Donald Trump said as U.S. president
For 835 days starting with his inauguration on Jan. 20, 2017, the Star kept track of every false claim Donald Trump made as U.S. president. Why? Historians say there has never been such a constant liar in the Oval Office. We think dishonesty should be challenged. We think inaccurate information should be corrected. And we think the sheer frequency of Trump’s inaccuracy is a central story of his presidency.
If Trump is a serial liar, why call this a list of “false claims,” not lies? You can read our detailed explanation here. The short answer is that we can’t be sure that each and every one was intentional. In some cases, he may have been confused or ignorant. What we know, objectively, is that he was not telling the truth.
LMAO If you want to play that game, How many days has the pps been below $.025/share. I count 5 since the name change on 7/9/2020, 19 total over six months and it's never been below $.02 in the past year. So what does that prove? I'd say it likes the $.025 to $.032 range. There's no indication that it's going below $.02.

George Floyd died of a drug overdose.
Below is the autopsy report on George Floyd, performed the morning after he died May 25 in the custody of Minneapolis police.
Floyd’s family commissioned a private autopsy.
Both autopsies called Floyd’s death a homicide. That performed by the Hennepin County medical examiner cites “cardiopulmonary arrest complicating law enforcement subdual, restraint, and neck compression.” The private autopsy states the cause of death was “mechanical asphyxia.”
Are you trying to say BLM didn't celebrate the shooting of those cops??? How did you celebrate?
BLM is YOUR Party and YOU are supporting them.. They shoot cops and celebrate. They are THE DEMOCRATIC PARTY
OPLINE The FBI announced Tuesday that Steven Carrillo, the U.S. Air Force sergeant who allegedly murdered law enforcement officers in California during protests earlier this month, was associated with the right-wing Boogaloo movement, and that Carrillo chose the timing of his attacks to "take advantage of a time when this nation was mourning the killing of George Floyd."
Last week, Carrillo was charged with murder after he ambushed Santa Cruz deputies and threw pipe bombs at police on June 6, killing Sgt. Damon Gutzwiller and wounding four other officers.
On Tuesday, the FBI announced Tuesday that Carrillo has also been federally charged with the murder of federal security officer Pat Underwood, who was killed in a drive-by shooting on May 29 in Oakland.
A suspected accomplice, Robert Alvin Justus Jr., has been arrested as well...
...Before he was apprehended, Carrillo reportedly scrawled the word "boog" and "I became unreasonable" in blood on the hood of a car.
"Boog" is short for boogaloo, which, according to NBC News, is a far-right anti-government movement that began on the extremist site 4chan and aims to start a second American civil war.
The phrase "I became unreasonable" has seemingly become a meme in public Boogaloo communities on Facebook.
Authorities say they also found a "boogaloo" patch in the van the duo used...
...Attorney General William Barr and other top government officials, including President Trump, have frequently blamed Antifa activists for the violence stemming from recent demonstrations in the wake of George Floyd's death. However, last week NPR published a review of court documents of 51 individuals facing federal charges related to protests, and none is alleged to have links to the Antifa movement. Among all the cases brought by the Justice Department thus far, the only extremist group mentioned in court documents is the right-wing "Boogaloo movement."
"Elements of The Boogaloo have evolved from a gathering of militia enthusiasts and Second Amendment advocates into a full-fledged violent extremist group, which inspires lone wolf actors and cell-like actors alike," said Joel Finkelstein, director of the Network Contagion Research Institute. "Given recent events and the inability of law enforcement to grasp and intercept this new mode of distributed terror, we think an increase in these kinds of violent attacks against police are almost inevitable."
Read the article! It's about deceptive information and reporting, not about hating police. You're denying facts again by deflection. Try proving that there were more than four black guys near the hospital entrance, that more than one guy yelled that he hoped the cops died and that anyone was blocking ambulances. You can't because it didn't happen. Yet you're profiling this behavior to all BLM protesters and democrats. That's exactly the type of mindset the BLM folks are protesting against.
You right wing fanatics just love the straw man arguments. Too bad the reports were greatly exaggerated by the cops...
The Police Are Lying in LA and the Media Is Falling for It—Again
That tweet gave the impression that some kind of street uprising had sprung up at the hospital, and that the many people clearly involved had attempted in some way to deny injured police officers medical care. The narrative that protesters “blocked” the hospital entrance was then picked up by the press, so I heard MSNBC’s Hallie Jackson repeating it on her show when I turned on the television Monday morning.
After hearing the charge, I went to the Internet to look for the video of this alleged protest. Here is what the LA County sheriffs were apparently talking about. As you can see in the video, the “protest” appears to be about four guys hovering around the emergency entrance, shouting invectives. It wasn’t a protest, and they weren’t preventing any medical vehicles from entering or exiting the hospital. It was a few people who gave into the justified-yet-wrong anger I myself overcame this morning through the grace of coffee and the backspace key.
To call this group of individuals “protesters who blocked the entrance,” as the police did, is misleading at best. To repeat the disinformation, as journalists did, simply because it was on a police Twitter account, is bad journalism.
As the police were arresting one of the men shouting at the cops, an NPR radio reporter, Josie Huang, stepped forward to get a better look. Police tackled and injured her. Police claimed that Huang didn’t identify herself as a reporter and refused to leave the area when asked. Over the weekend, the media again reflexively reprinted this police narrative.
Then Huang released her own video of the event. It shows that she immediately “backed up” when told to do so and identified herself as a reporter even as police were throwing her to the ground.
Reporters who reprint or rebroadcast the official story for why police tackled a reporter, without first talking to the reporter tackled, deserve to be tackled by other, better reporters.
As nearly every Black person has been trying to tell the media since the invention of “police”: Cops lie. They lie, mislead, or issue untruthful statements all the time. White journalists must stop repeating police lies, uncritically, without demanding evidence to back up police claims or even doing a bare-minimum Google search to see if there is video that directly contradicts police statements.
Skepticism of police statements should be a basic requirement of competent journalism, but it is particularly critical in times like this, when police have a reason to lie. The police are angry at the attempted murder of two officers, and they want other people to be angry, so they are not even trying to provide an accurate account of events. Instead, they are trying to build a case against Black Lives Matter.
Los Angeles County Sheriff Alex Villanueva (whose office tweeted out the misleading story about “protesters” at the hospital) could barely contain his contempt for BLM protesters in his statement about the shooting. “This is just a somber reminder that this is a dangerous job, and actions and words have consequences. Our job does not get any easier because people do not like law enforcement,” Villanueva said. “It pisses me off. It dismays me at the same time.”
In this statement, Villanueva is trying to draw a direct line between the “actions and words” of protesters to the attempted murder of police officers. He seems less interested in drawing a line from police brutality and the murder of Black people to the attempted murder of police officers.
The reality is that we don’t know why the suspect tried to kill those two officers, but we can see with our own eyes that his actions were wrong and dangerously misguided. Speculation into his motives is irresponsible absent evidence. It’s wrong for journalists to speculate, and it’s wrong for journalists to repeat the unverified, potentially unhinged speculations of the LA County sheriff without any evidence whatsoever.
It’s not like the social justice organization ambushed two police officers in a parked car. It’s not like social justice organizations have a history of targeting police officers for murder. But the person who did target and ambush police officers appears to be Black and thus, apparently, it’s all our faults. That’s how racial profiling works, don’t you know.
So the police already have their villain, and they are enacting their retribution. On Sunday, LA County sheriff’s deputies shut down a “protest encampment” across from LA City Hall. The holdouts had been there for months, living peacefully, but cops cleared it mere hours after the shooting. Cops claim it was taken down because of “deteriorating conditions,” but nobody is required to be addled enough to believe them.
The inability and unwillingness of the media to accurately report on police lies and sensationalism will have the effect of excusing additional acts of police brutality. The police will point to the one guy who shot police officers (for reasons not yet known) and the one dude who shouted “I hope y’all die” as justification for cops to go out on the street tonight and violate the constitutional rights of Black people, or beat Black people, or kill Black people. And by refusing to call out police hysteria, the media will make that hysteria seem reasonable.
Given the stakes, it’s not too much to ask the media to do its job. It’s not too much to ask journalists to act like journalists instead of stenographers. If I can restrain myself from being a snarky, irresponsible axe-grinder when it comes to “blue lives,” it’s not too much to ask mainstream sources to think before retweeting or republishing the latest round of blue lies.
Democratic presidential nominee on Sunday Joe Biden condemned violence directed at law enforcement after two Los Angeles County Sheriff’s Department deputies were shot and critically wounded and a deputy in North Carolina was killed.
Biden called the attacks “absolutely unconscionable” and said they “bring only greater violence, injustice, and grief to a nation in desperate need of healing.”
“Brave officers who pin on the shield carry a sacred responsibility and make an extraordinary sacrifice. Just as they owe it to the American people to protect and serve with honor, restraint, and accountability, Americans owe it to them to lessen the needless danger of their inherently dangerous jobs,” Biden said.
“Acts of lawlessness and violence directed against police officers are unacceptable, outrageous, and entirely counterproductive to the pursuit of greater peace and justice in America — as are the actions of those who cheer such attacks on. Those who perpetrate these crimes must be brought to justice, and, if convicted, face the full brunt of the law,” the Democrat added.
Uber, Facebook and Twitter received plenty of private funding from Investment Bankers before they went public. Nobody gave their shares away as a dividend. They were effectively owned by their investors before they went public. Obitx's only investor was mCig/Bots and their funding went dry after the FarmOn deal collapsed. Obitx couldn't sell shares because they weren't public and neither they nor mCig/Bots could find reliable private investors without giving away the company and significantly diluting the dividend shareholders.
Obitx was initially doing well having identified several promising revenue producing opportunities like Haultail and digital advertising. Unfortunately, without funding they couldn't invest in those opportunities and they dried up. It's now up to the new management team to start from scratch with a blank slate. We'll see in the next few months what they've come up with. Unfortunately, mid-pandemic is not the optimal time to come up with and execute a new business plan.
Wow, three countries that have never been at war sign a peace treaty. Who'd a thunk it possible? LMAO
Obama and Biden, as well as BLM leaders have all condemned those shootings...
Can you believe they were blocking the hospital not wanting to help.
While I'm fascinated by ALYI's business plan and think it has a lot of potential, the Modus announcement is the first non fluff verifiable news that they've released. I've flipped this stock several times and currently have a small investment. I'm skeptical but still hopeful that the company proves my skepticism to be wrong.
It means Modus owns some ALYI stock (i.e. it has an ownership interest in ALYI), although they didn't specify how much stock they own. The implication is that they have a vested interest in making sure ALYI is successful.
If the BLM folks are the terrorist, how come it's only the Trump supporters that always show up with guns...
Which of these pictures is scarier...
...or...
They tried to get Trump to care about right-wing terrorism. He ignored them.
Officials at the Department of Homeland Security waged a yearslong internal struggle to get the White House to pay attention to the threat of violent domestic extremists. Frustrated, they gave up on the Trump administration.
Elizabeth Neumann spent March 13 and 14 of 2019 at a conference in the picturesque Spanish port city of Málaga. The topic: terrorism. Western leaders were deeply worried about the dangers foreign terrorist fighters traveling back from places like Iraq, Libya and Syria would pose to their home countries. And that’s what Neumann expected to dominate the two-day event.
Neumann was DHS’s assistant secretary for threat prevention and security policy at the time, handling counterterrorism work from the Department of Homeland Security’s headquarters. In Málaga, a history-drenched resort town on Spain’s Costa del Sol that once marked the fault line between the Muslim and Christian worlds, she and her counterparts from scores of countries spent long hours talking about the terrorism threats that concerned them most. After a while, she began to see a pattern: Though concerns about instability in the Middle East dominated most public discussions on counterterrorism, about 80 percent of the leaders at the conference ranked far-right extremism among their top concerns.
The next morning, when Neumann woke up early to catch a cab to the airport, her phone started lighting up with news alerts. A gunman had murdered 51 people at two mosques in Christchurch, New Zealand. Prosecutors would later say the killer planned the attack to maximize casualties and terrify the Muslim community and non-European immigrants. Five months later, an American terrorist would cite him as an inspiration.
“I thought, ‘Oh my gosh — it’s happening now,’” Neumann recalled in an interview.
For Neumann, her nightmare scenario of globalized white supremacist terrorism was coming to life. Meanwhile, the U.S. government was doing far too little about its own homegrown extremists — often "lone wolves" radicalized online by white supremacist websites and fueled by hostility toward immigrants and minorities. But White House officials didn’t want to talk about the rising domestic extremist threat or even use the phrase “domestic terrorism.” The administration’s relentless, single-minded focus on immigration enforcement — coupled with nonstop turnover on the National Security Council — constantly pulled senior DHS leadership away from everything else. And her ultimate boss, President Donald Trump, was part of the problem.
This story is based on background and on-record interviews with current and former law enforcement officials, inside and outside DHS. It includes, for the first time, detailed comments from two top former political appointees in the department who tried to tackle the problem before giving up on the Trump administration. Frustrated by the president’s failure to act, they are actively supporting his opponent.
“At least in this administration,” Neumann said, “there’s not going to be anything substantive done on domestic terrorism.”...
...Just a few weeks into the new administration, DHS leaders noticed an alarming trend: a burst of vandalism at Jewish cemeteries in Philadelphia; Rochester, N.Y.; and University City, Mo.
“We were all scratching our heads saying, ‘What is this?’” Neumann said. “You could sense that something about the threat was changing and morphing, but we couldn’t quite put our fingers on it until Charlottesville.”
On Aug. 11, 2017, scores of young white men carrying tiki torches marched through the campus of the University of Virginia chanting “Jews will not replace us” and “White lives matter,” in a public display of white supremacist mobilization that shocked and sickened the country. The next day, counterprotesters thronged the streets of Charlottesville to push back. And a white supremacist drove a car through that crowd, injuring 19 people and killing a woman named Heather Heyer.
Trump’s infamous response to the weekend: “You had some very bad people in that group, but you also had people that were very fine people, on both sides.”
It could have been a moment of action from the federal government, Neumann said — a chance for a systematic White House review of the threat’s scope and causes. But it wasn’t...
...Early in Nielsen’s tenure as secretary, she and Taylor discussed the domestic terror threat at length. In the months before her confirmation, a far-right extremist named Jeremy Christian had murdered two men on a train after harassing two Black teenage girls. One of the girls wore a hijab, according to news reports, and Christian yelled “fuck Muslims” at them. Just days after Nielsen was confirmed, a man with a swastika marking on his leg murdered two students at a high school in New Mexico before killing himself...
...The process of drafting the counterterrorism strategy continued under Bolton’s leadership.
“What ended up getting significantly dropped was all the stuff we talked about on domestic terrorism,” Taylor said. “We got a draft back from John Bolton that barely referenced domestic terrorism...”
...Nielsen wasn’t happy, according to Taylor.
“She was like, ‘What gives?’” Taylor said. “He was like, ‘We’re doing more drafts, we’re doing more turns on it, just stay tuned, we’ll work on this. And she said, ‘It’s very important to me that we emphasize domestic terrorism here. This has got to be an administration priority.’”
The final document, released on Oct. 4, 2018, contained just two short paragraphs on domestic terrorism. One noted that the U.S. faced internal threats from “racially motivated extremism, animal rights extremism, environmental extremism, sovereign citizen extremism, and militia extremism.” A second promised that the government would “investigate ties between domestic terrorists not motivated by radical Islamist ideologies and their overseas counterparts to more fully understand them.”
It was brief.
“They said, ‘We’ll come up with a separate domestic terrorism strategy,” Taylor said. “Bullshit. They never did. It just got lost.”...
On review, I admit that my post was misleading but not entirely. I live in Sunnyvale about 50 miles south of San Francisco. I personally received a haircut on Tuesday, September 1st here in Sunnyvale where salons were permitted to open on that day and work on customers indoors. San Francisco also relaxed their rules starting last Tuesday, however, their rules only allow salons to cut hair outdoors. Pelosi received her haircut on Monday. It's also unclear whether the customer can be in violation or only the salon owner. In any event, it's understandable that someone in the Bay Area could be confused by the rule changes. Moreover, Pelosi claims, with some evidence, that she was set up by the salon owner...
Nancy Pelosi’s stylist backs speaker’s claim she was ‘set up’ by salon
“It was a setup, and I take responsibility for falling for a setup,” Pelosi told reporters during a visit Wednesday to Mission Education Center Elementary School.
“I take responsibility for trusting the word of the neighborhood salon that I’ve been to over the years many times when they said, ‘We’re able to accommodate people one person at a time.’ “
It wasn’t clear how Fox News obtained Monday’s security camera video from eSalon on Union Street, showing Pelosi — unmasked, and with wet hair — walking through the salon followed by a man with a mask, apparently the stylist. On Wednesday evening, Pelosi’s hair stylist accused the owner of the salon of having it in for Pelosi.
Indoor operations resumed Monday at hair salons and barbershops in some Bay Area counties — but not San Francisco, which only gave the green light for salons to open outdoors, starting Tuesday.
When the scandal broke, eSalon owner Erica Kious told Fox News that she was outraged to learn of Pelosi’s visit with a stylist who rented space from her salon. “It was a slap in the face that she went in, you know, that she feels that she can just go and get her stuff done while no one else can go in, and I can’t work,” Kious told Fox News.
But a law firm representing Pelosi’s stylist, Jonathan DeNardo, released a statement accusing Kious of having encouraged stylists for months to operate in defiance of shutdown orders. When DeNardo called the salon owner Sunday night to ask if he could bring in Pelosi, the statement said, Kious “made several vitriolic and incendiary comments about Speaker Pelosi” but ultimately approved.
For months, salon owners have been forced to shutter their businesses and, in some cases, close them permanently. In May, the Professional Beauty Federation of California sued Gov. Gavin Newsom over the shutdowns.
Pelosi was also criticized because she wasn’t wearing a mask when she was caught on camera.
“I don’t wear a mask when I’m washing my hair,” she said. “Do you wear a mask when you’re washing your hair? I always wear a mask. That picture is when I just came out of the bowl.”...
...“The speaker was invited by the owner and followed those rules,” said Rep. Eric Swalwell, D-Dublin. “Also, no man would be subjected to this kind of fake-outrage attack from the right.”
Pelosi insisted that she’s been inundated with support since Salongate broke, including from hair dressers who say they appreciated the attention she’s brought to their industry and the need to get back to work.
Apparently the rules do not apply to Speaker Nancy Pelosi."
The Marijuana sector has gotten too crowded and competitive. Moreover, the prospects for full nationwide legalization still seem to be years away. I think it was a smart move to focus on custom blockchain software development and cryptocurrency. I expect it may take another quarter or two for the results to become apparent but long term the company is in a better position to become profitable. Keep in mind that they are still virtually debt free.
LMAO All you can see is an old white guy walking while surrounded by a crowd (Why did the crowd surround him? What did he say/do? Crowds don't just surround people for no reason.). Anyway, you don't see what happened but he's down on the ground and several BLM people help him up and apparently protect him from the rest of the crowd. He's apparently no harmed.
So tell me. What if he were a black guy walking through a crowd of white nationalists? Do you think they'd treat him as gracefully???
This is Trump's America...
Wikipedia - Right-wing terrorism
A 2019 report found that 50 people in the United States were killed in murders by domestic extremists (including both ideologically and non-ideologically motivated homicides) during the previous year. Of these killings, 78% were perpetrated by white supremacists, 16% by anti-government extremists, 4% by "incel" extremists, and 2% by domestic Islamist extremists. Over the broader 2009 to 2018 time period, there were a total of 313 people in the United States killed by right-wing extremists (including both ideologically and non-ideologically motivated homicides), of which 76% were committed by white supremacists, 19% by anti-government extremists (including those affiliated with the militia, "sovereign citizen," tax protester, and "Patriot" movements), 3% by "incel" extremists, 1% by anti-abortion extremists, and 1% by other right-wing extremists...
...The Post reported that the upsurge in right-wing violence began during the Barack Obama administration and picked up steam under the presidency of Donald Trump, whose remarks after the Unite the Right rally in Charlottesville, Virginia in 2017 that there were "some very fine people on both sides" is widely seen as giving confidence to the right that the administration looked favorably on their goals, providing them with "tacit support". A former FBI assistant director for counterintelligence, is quoted as saying that "[political leaders] from the White House down, used to serve as a check on conduct and speech that was abhorrent to most people. I see that eroding. ... The current political rhetoric is at least enabling, and certainly not discouraging, violence."...[89]
...According to analysis by the newspaper of data from the Global Terrorism Database, 92 of 263 domestic terrorism events – 35% – that occurred from 2010 to 2017 were right-wing related, while 38 (14%) were Islamist extremist-related, and 34 (13%) were left-wing related. Not only that, but a criminologist from John Jay College stated that right-wing attacks were statistically more likely to result in fatalities.
SMHL Who's made that claim besides you and the other Trump chumps? Removing graffiti doesn't give anyone license to shoot people.
Where's the Law & Order President???
The Escalating Terrorism Problem in the United States
...far-right terrorism has significantly outpaced terrorism from other types of perpetrators, including from far-left networks and individuals inspired by the Islamic State and al-Qaeda. Right-wing attacks and plots account for the majority of all terrorist incidents in the United States since 1994, and the total number of right-wing attacks and plots has grown significantly during the past six years. Right-wing extremists perpetrated two thirds of the attacks and plots in the United States in 2019 and over 90 percent between January 1 and May 8, 2020...
...First, right-wing attacks and plots accounted for the majority of all terrorist incidents in the United States since 1994. In particular, they made up a large percentage of incidents in the 1990s and 2010s. Second, the total number of right-wing attacks and plots has grown substantially during the past six years. In 2019, for example, right-wing extremists perpetrated nearly two-thirds of the terrorist attacks and plots in the United States, and they committed over 90 percent of the attacks and plots between January 1 and May 8, 2020. Third, although religious extremists were responsible for the most fatalities because of the 9/11 attacks, right-wing perpetrators were responsible for more than half of all annual fatalities in 14 of the 21 years during which fatal attacks occurred...
...To evaluate the ongoing threat from different types of terrorists, however, it is useful to consider the proportion of fatalities attributed to each type of perpetrator annually. In 14 of the 21 years between 1994 and 2019 in which fatal terrorist attacks occurred, the majority of deaths resulted from right-wing attacks. In eight of these years, right-wing attackers caused all of the fatalities, and in three more—including 2018 and 2019—they were responsible for more than 90 percent of annual fatalities.11 Therefore, while religious terrorists caused the largest number of total fatalities, right-wing attackers were most likely to cause more deaths in a given year.
What was he doing there armed with a long gun in the first place???
People were chasing him to disarm him after he had already shot someone. Moreover, they were running away when he shot at them.
When you make people like this heros at your fascist convention...
...you get this...
THIS IS ALL HAPPENING ON TRUMP'S WATCH - Where's the law and order???
SMHL The name and symbol change from mCig to Bots was subject to SEC review (which means they had to approve the reason for the change and Bots business plan, including their controlled subsidiaries). The business plan for OBTX was subject to SEC review before they would allow it to go public. Unfortunately, they didn't give final approval until the pandemic was well underway. Consequently, there hasn't been an optimal time to raise operational funding through a new public offering. The business plan for VTCQ (Vitacig) was subject to SEC review as was their name/symbol change from VTCQ to OMHE. The SEC has been more involved in reviewing plans for this company than virtually any other penny stock company.

Except for the statements of historical fact contained herein, the information presented in this news release and oral statements made from time to time by representatives of the Company are or may constitute “forward-looking statements” as such term is used in applicable United States and Canadian laws and including, without limitation, within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995, for which the Company claims the protection of the safe harbor for forward-looking statements. These statements relate to analyses and other information that are based on forecasts of future results, estimates of amounts not yet determinable and assumptions of management. Any other statements that express or involve discussions with respect to predictions, expectations, beliefs, plans, projections, objectives, assumptions or future events or performance (often, but not always, using words or phrases such as “expects” or “does not expect”, “is expected”, “anticipates” or “does not anticipate”, “plans, “estimates” or “intends”, or stating that certain actions, events or results “may”, “could”, “would”, “might” or “will” be taken, occur or be achieved) are not statements of historical fact and should be viewed as forward-looking statements. Such forward-looking statements involve known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other factors which may cause the actual results, performance or achievements of the Company to be materially different from any future results, performance or achievements expressed or implied by such forward-looking statements. Such risks and other factors include, among others, the availability of capital to fund programs and the resulting dilution caused by the raising of capital through the sale of shares, accidents, labor disputes and other risks of the automotive industry including, without limitation, those associated with the environment, delays in obtaining governmental approvals, permits or financing or in the completion of development or construction activities or claims limitations on insurance coverage. Although the Company has attempted to identify important factors that could cause actual actions, events or results to differ materially from those described in forward-looking statements, there may be other factors that cause actions, events or results not to be as anticipated, estimated or intended. There can be no assurance that such statements will prove to be accurate as actual results and future events could differ materially from those anticipated in such statements. Although the Company believes that the expectations reflected in such forward-looking statements are based upon reasonable assumptions, it can give no assurance that its expectations will be achieved. Forward-looking information is subject to certain risks, trends and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially from those projected. Many of these factors are beyond the Company’s ability to control or predict. Important factors that may cause actual results to differ materially and that could impact the Company and the statements contained in this news release can be found in the Company’s filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission. The Company assumes no obligation to update or supplement any forward-looking statements whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise. Accordingly, readers should not place undue reliance on forward-looking statements contained in this news release and in any document referred to in this news release. This news release shall not constitute an offer to sell or the solicitation of an offer to buy securities.
