WASHINGTON (PNN) - September 28, 2011 - Those who use marijuana legally in accordance with their respective state's laws cannot be sold or possess firearms, according to a Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco and Firearms (ATF) memo issued on September 21.

COLUMBUS, Ohio - September 27, 2011 - In a sign of the divisive political times in which we live, there have been more calls in recent years for a reassertion of local sovereignty over federal control.

TRANSCRIPT:

October 4, 2011 - Greetings, Institutions of the Media.

We are Anonymous.

The events transpiring within Wall Street have caught our eye.

It seems that the government and Federal agencies enjoy enforcing the law a little bit too much. They instate unjust laws as mindless automatons, blindly following orders with soulless precision.

PORTLAND, Oregon - September 29, 2011 - On Wednesday, a federal judge ruled that two provisions of the USA PATRIOT Act are unconstitutional because they allow search warrants to be issued without a showing of probable cause.

U.S. District Judge Ann Aiken ruled that the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act, as amended by the USA PATRIOT Act, "now permits the executive branch of government to conduct surveillance and searches of Amerikan citizens without satisfying the probable cause requirements of the Fourth Amendment."

NEW ORLEANS, Louisiana (PNN) - September 28, 2011 - There are several political signs attracting all kinds of attention in one uptown neighborhood.

On Wednesday, crowds gathered at the corner of Calhoun and Coralie streets, looking at several signs depicting illegitimate President Barack Obama as either a dunce, a puppet, or a crying baby in a diaper.

PEEKSKILL, N.Y. - September 27, 2011 - Want to get thrown out of a Peekskill City Council meeting? Start clapping.

After a series of boisterous meetings, Mayor Mary Foster is trying to bring decorum back to the chamber by banning clapping.

“We’ve had to end meetings because the disruptions just became too unruly,” Foster said.

However, critics of the measure spoke with 1010 WINS’ Al Jones and said they felt like they were being treated like kindergarteners.

GENEVA, Switzerland - September 22, 2011 - It was Albert Einstein who proposed more than 100 years ago that nothing could travel faster than the speed of light.

But last night it emerged that the man who laid the foundations for the laws of nature may have been wrong.

The science world was left in shock when workers at the world’s largest physics lab announced they had recorded subatomic particles travelling faster than the speed of light.

If the findings are proven to be accurate, they would overturn one of the pillars of the Standard Model of physics, which explains the way the universe and everything within it works.

NEW YORK (PNN) - September 26, 2011 - Republican presidential candidate Ron Paul rallied a sold-out crowd of more than 1800 of his most ardent under-thirty-year-old supporters in New York City Monday night, with talk of a new American Revolution.

WASHINGTON - September 23, 2011 - The federal government has doled out more than $600 million in benefit payments to dead people over the past five years, a watchdog report says.

Such payments are meant for retired or disabled federal workers, but sometimes the checks keep going out even after the former employees pass away and the deaths are not reported, according to the report this week from the Office of Personnel Management's inspector general, Patrick McFarland.

DETROIT, Michigan (PNN) - September 21, 2011 - If you're the owner of a fairly new General Motors product, you may want to take a close look at the most recent OnStar terms and conditions; the company has altered the parameters under which it can legally collect GPS data on your vehicle.
