DISTURBING EYEWITNESS VIDEO CAPTURES CALIF. OFFICER FATALLY SHOOTING UNARMED HOMELESS MAN ‘ABOUT A SECOND’ AFTER HE CALLED HER A ‘B**CH’

Cellphone video recorded by an eyewitness captured a police officer in Santa Ana, Calif., fatally shooting a 22-year-old homeless man at a shopping center earlier this week.

The unidentified witness reportedly saw a confrontation unfold between a police officer and victim Hans Kevin Arellano. The incident occurred in the parking lot of the Harbor Place Shopping Center at about 3 p.m. on Tuesday.

Here’s how the eyewitness described the events to CBS Los Angeles:

The man then exited the restaurant, and as he was exiting the restaurant, he said, ‘What are you gonna do, b—-?’ About a second later, she shot him in the chest.”

It Begins: Pedophiles Call For Same Rights As Homosexuals

Using the same tactics used by “gay” rights activists, pedophiles
have begun to seek similar status arguing their desire for children is a
sexual orientation no different than heterosexual or homosexuals.

Critics of the homosexual lifestyle have long claimed that once it
became acceptable to identify homosexuality as simply an “alternative lifestyle” or sexual orientation, logically nothing would be off limits. 
“Gay” advocates have taken offense at such a position insisting this would never happen. However, psychiatrists are now beginning to advocate redefining pedophilia in the same way homosexuality was redefined several years ago.

Major Virginia Paper: 'Fast Terry' Film Rocks McAuliffe Campaign

The top political columnist at a major Virginia newspaper not known to favor conservative candidates wrote on Thursday that "Fast Terry," the new documentary film from Citizens United that portrays Clinton pal and former Democratic National Committee chairman Terry McAuliffe in a highly unfavorable light, "has come at a tough time for the Democratic nominee for governor."

Julian Walker of the Virginian-Pilot did not stop there. "Despite McAuliffe campaign dismissals of Citizens United's 30-minute "Fast Terry" film as a partisan hit piece," hewrote, "its arrival amid a federal probe related to GreenTech Automotive's finances is harmful."

SPEAKING GERMAN IN TEXAS

In Texas there is a town called New Braunfels, where there is a large German-speaking population.

One day, a local rancher driving down a country road noticed a man using his hand to drink water from the rancher's stock pond.

The rancher rolled down the window and shouted: "Sehr angenehm! Trink das Wasser nicht. Die kuehe haben darein geschissen."

This means: “Glad to meet you! Don't drink the water. The cows have shit in it."

The man shouted back: "I'm from New York and just down here campaigning for Obama's health care plan. I can't understand you. Please speak in English."

The rancher replied: "Use both hands."

‘You’re Paying My Phone Bill’: Writer Shows How Easy It Is to Abuse Free Gov’t Phone Program

Obama's Policies Make Jobs Situation Still Grim

The Labor Department reported the economy added 162,000 jobs in July, after adding 188,000 in June. Unemployment fell to 7.4 percent, largely because 240,000 adults left the labor force.

Businesses continued the shift toward contingent workers. In July, 103,000 more Americans reported working part-time.

The growing importance of services like retailing and hospitality, and the rigidity and visceral anti-business campaigns of unions drive this trend; however, Obamacare's mandate for employer-paid health insurance coverage also impel the use of more part-time workers.

Overall, the jobs count may be up, but for most working families and recent college graduates the situation is grim. Adding in discouraged adults and part-timers who want full-time employment, the unemployment rate becomes 14.0 percent. And, for many years, inflation-adjusted wages have been falling and income inequality rising.

15 Signs You May Have Adult ADHD

About 4 percent of adults have attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD), and many others have never been diagnosed. (About half of kids with ADHD still have it in adulthood.)

Here are 15 signs of adult ADHD.

Lawmakers To Subsidize Own Obamacare Premiums With Tax Dollars

Members of Congress and their aides will essentially be exempt from Obamacare, as the Office of Personnel Management (OPM) will issue a ruling that says the federal government can subsidize the health insurance premiums of members of Congress and their aides even though the law does not say so.

According to Politico, OPM was "under heavy pressure from Capitol Hill" to issue the ruling giving lawmakers and staffers special treatment because Washington feared a so-called "brain drain," as staffers unable to afford the healthcare plans available on the government exchanges threatened to go into the private sector.

Post-Trayvon Shooting Results In Charges For Home-Defender In New Orleans

A New Orleans resident, Merritt Landry, has been charged with attempted second-degree murder for shooting a teenager, Marshal Coulter. The fourteen-year-old victim reportedly had a history of thefts, according to his own mother and brother, and was seen casing Landry’s home, according to an eyewitness. The teen then apparently jumped a 5-6-foot fence and headed towards the Landry residence, where Landry's pregnant wife and infant daughter were present, according to the police and the home-defender. It was 2 a.m.
The case comes years after a high-profile 2007 New Orleans killing in the same area where a killer entered a dwelling and ruthlessly shot a mother and a father as the father held their infant. The mother died of her wounds. The case had become a huge ordeal in the city, with thousands protesting the high crime in Post-Katrina New Orleans. The killer was never caught, but was believed to be a teenager.

Expect The Daily Times To Kiss PRMC's Rear End Tomorrow

Salisbury News has learned the Daily Times will be publishing an article about unhappy employees at PRMC. I GUESS SO, AFTER 300+ COMMENTS ON SBYNEWS.COM.

Did you expect anything different. They are bought and paid for by advertisers and will do whatever it takes to imply to the public things are not as bad as they truly are. 

By the way, can someone confirm that PRMC gave back the two vacation days Salisbury News published? Hey, who knows. Maybe after the Daily Times article PRMC will actually treat their employees like us US American Citizens or even humans and pay them the salaries they deserve. Oh, that's right, I forgot. The DT's is usually in the business  of brown nosing their advertisers, not calling them out for who they really are. 

If PRMC did give back the two vacation days, to all PRMC employees, you're welcome. 

What America Can Learn From Detroit's Pension Blues

US cities should take note: Political dysfunction and unfunded pension liabilities were two big factors leading to Detroit filing for bankruptcy, Gordon says.

In the week since Detroit became the largest U.S. city to declare bankruptcy, many commentators have speculated about what, if anything, this action means for the rest of the country. One narrative is that Detroit is sui generis – a city whose fiscal problems were long in the making, aided by broad macroeconomic forces and the city’s own political dysfunction. Indeed, Detroit’s previous mayor is in jail and several former officials, including a city treasurer, are under investigation for pay-to-play scandals at the city’s pension funds.
