Remind your children lest they forget.

I do not argue that the US has significant influence and that things like Benghazi SUCK and should not have happened but ask why has Hilary so far weathered this storm in spite of the far right’s chest thumping? I think she’s protected for a reason. What is that reason? It’s not a far flung conspiracy; it’s much closer than that.

It’s time people woke up and got involved WITH understanding not media, or for that matter, party brainwashing. It’s a challenge these days to find sources that are not slanted but it’s possible; news media no longer report the news they are busy trying to make the news or at least sensationalize what little news they’ve got for ratings mad money. So my advice is read it all and form your own opinion but don’t take anything at face value and don’t read only one side.

Remember the blind men describing and elephant – the one who grabbed the trunk said its like a tree limb, the one grasping the leg said no more like a tree trunk, the one at the ear said its a large lead or fan-like animal, the one at the body said its like a big wall and the one at the tail said its just like a snake. To SEE the elephant you must put all of those descriptions together in a specific order.

Efforts to reach the Philadelphia FBI media office at 215-418-4000 were unsuccessful as the Public Relations officer did not return calls and her voicemail box was full. No message could be left.

No one called.

This text alert was the second in two weeks to students.

Area hospitals were not informed of the emergency text and or other law enforcement agencies as far as we were able to discover.

It’s unclear what the Standard Operating Procedure for sharing the texted alert information is with other First Responders and law enforcement agencies in the Philadelphia area and or region.

It is one of the many questions we tried to ask and have answered, but to no avail.
