Civilian Use of Force Continuum By Michael VanBlaricum

Civilian Use of Force Continuum By Michael VanBlaricum: "I love the fact that a large majority of Americans live in states where they can exercise their rights to self-defense, while at the same time being very concerned that many people’s training in self-defense is an all or nothing approach, being trained only in the “use of deadly force” while having little or no exposure to less-lethal weapons training and force options. I feel through training and utilization of a “Civilian Use of Force Continuum” we can provide the CCW permit holder with options for use of force that they are currently unprepared for when deadly force is not legally an option, but some degree of force is."

UseofForce.us: Introduction

UseofForce.us: Introduction: "A killing is a killing; an eye-poking is an eye-poking; a stabbing is a stabbing, and so forth. If the evidence supports that you did such a thing, and you’re prosecuted for it, and you don’t deny it, then it’s a crime. You can, however, make the case that you were legally justified in your actions, and if you can prove that, then you’re clear. But while establishing that you did the eye-poking is the prosecution’s problem, establishing justification is yours—your burden of proof."

One of the eyewitnesses is wrong -- so you can't always trust an eyewitness 100%.

Top White House Official Says Obama Team 'Controlled' Media Coverage During Campaign - Political News - FOXNews.com

Top White House Official Says Obama Team 'Controlled' Media Coverage During Campaign - Political News - FOXNews.com: "She explained that the campaign favored live interviews so that Obama's words could not be edited -- 'so that what the voters heard we determined, as opposed to some editor in a TV station.'

She said Campaign Manager David Plouffe put out Web videos so the campaign could avoid talking to reporters and focus the media message.

'Whether it was a David Plouffe video or an Obama speech, a huge part of our press strategy was focused on making the media cover what Obama was actually saying as opposed to why the campaign was saying it,' she said."

Those sounds like effective techniques (that I have no problem with).

White House Urges Other Networks to Disregard Fox News - Political News - FOXNews.com

White House Urges Other Networks to Disregard Fox News - Political News - FOXNews.com: "Senior Obama administration officials took to the airwaves Sunday to accuse Fox News of pushing a particular point of view and not being a real news network."

All news sources push a particular point of view even when they try not to.

"The White House is calling on other news organizations to isolate and alienate Fox News as it sends out top advisers to rail against the cable channel as a Republican Party mouthpiece." In other words: If they don't play my way than no one should play with them. And this apparently all started just because of fact-checking? What happened to "transparency"?
