An infuriated Denver woman has filed a complaint with the Transportation Security Administration after a security screener forced her 83-year-old mother to get out of her wheelchair and walk to a pre-flight screening area, despite doctor's orders not to stand and an orthopedic card saying she had a metal plate in her hip.

The incident at Denver International Airport occurred eight days ago when Sally Moon, her sister and a Frontier Airlines employee were transporting Bernice "Bea" Bogart to a special security screening area. Moon's sister, who did not have concourse clearance and the Frontier employee were left behind as Moon pushed her mother to the screening site.

Bogart, wheelchair bound since a 1999 fall that broke her hip and further disabled by breast cancer surgery in 1997 and a major stroke in 2004 that caused dementia, was under strict doctor's orders not to stand without assistance or her walker. She carried a special orthopedic card to alert airport security she had a metal plate in her hip.

Good start, Sagas, but I'm betting that there would be a long narrow infrared heat signature that would SCREAM out to the slimeballs looking down from their satellites. I wonder if you could sneak in at night, dig the entire thing, plant it and cover it up before the satellites got a picture of it. Do it on "government" land. Speaking of which, dija hear about the man and his daughter who were living in a park in Portland for AGES before some jogger happened across them and did his civic duty by reporting them and ruining thier lives. Unfortunately we need to interact with others. Not only do we need to, but we need to. Meaning that we are social animals. If we don't have human interaction then we'll all probably end up hanging out on strange websites complaining about the injustices of the world and stuff like that. Jeeze, I hope that never happens to ME!

South African Policeman Kills 8 in Rampage 1 hour, 17 minutes ago

A senior South African policeman went on a shooting rampage, killing eight people — including a 2-year-old baby — before being shot dead by colleagues Tuesday, police said. A pedestrian was killed during a police chase of the suspect.

The victims of Monday night's shootings included four other policemen and three women. At least two other people were wounded seriously.

Superintendent Chippa Mateane, 42, killed his girlfriend, her daughter, granddaughter and niece Monday evening, police spokeswoman Mary Martins-Engelbrecht said. Another relative was wounded critically.

He then drove to his station in the Johannesburg township of Kagiso and opened fire on other policemen.

Mateane fled in a police car, eventually making his way to the township of Sebokeng, where he shot and critically wounded his brother.

Police killed Mateane early Tuesday after an extensive manhunt.

The rampage sent shock waves through a country accustomed to violent crime.

National Police Commissioner Jackie Selebi, who visited the scene by helicopter during the night, said he was "extremely dismayed at the news."

"It is unknown what sparked such an unacceptable level of rage in the superintendent, and it pains me to even try and understand what could cause a man to embark on such a senseless carnage," he said in a statement.

Martins-Engelbrecht said police officers were traumatized by the slayings.

The police and prison officers union called on the South African Police Service to "bolster its support system" for officers suffering from job-related stress.

South African radio quoted family friends as saying Mateane shot his girlfriend, Matshidiso Selena Mosia, 38, because he was unhappy about their troubled relationship.

The other victims included Mosia's daughter, Lerato, 24; granddaughter, Lebogang, 2; and niece Kelebigile Moobi, 21, Martins-Engelbrecht said.

Another niece, Masabata Moobi, 21, was hospitalized in stable condition and gave a statement to police.

The dead police officers were identified as a senior superintendent and three captains.

A South African Press Association reporter who visited the scene said blood-spattered dockets lay strewn around the detective's offices at the police station.

Two officers had been shot in the head and one in the chest. Their bodies were found under a table with three bullet holes in the walls behind.

The fourth victim was outside the office, with a bullet wound to the chest.

Martins-Engelbrecht said there were few details on how Mateane himself died.

"There was a confrontation between him and police officers after they cornered him," she said. "There was a shooting and he was fatally wounded."

LAKELAND - When he wasn't sending pornographic movies to and asking for explicit photos from a teenage girl in Polk County, a Maryland man was bragging about his job as a spokesman at the U.S. Department of Homeland Security, law enforcement officers said.

The revelation - actually made to a detective posing as a 14-year-old girl - resulted in the arrest of 55-year-old Brian J. Doyle at his Silver Spring, Md., home Tuesday night, officials said.

During his Internet chats, Doyle quickly revealed his name and job, and he sent his office and government-issued cell phone numbers. The information allowed detectives to quickly verify Doyle's identity, the Polk County Sheriff's Office announced Tuesday night.

Doyle moved quickly in other regards, officials said, sending enough sexually explicit messages and movie clips that they were able to secure a warrant for his arrest on 23 felony counts roughly two weeks after he responded to the detective's profile

Stop pushing your statist agenda on us. Who says we need to interact with each other. I thought the entire idea of this forum was to get to where we were left alone.

Lubbock Man Dies After Being Shot With Taser Gun

A less-than-lethal weapon turns deadly in a north Lubbock neighborhood. A Lubbock man, and a Texas Tech graduate, dies after being shot with a taser gun.
It all started with a 911 hang-up coming from 4402 Jarvis late Sunday night. As usual on hang-ups, a police officer responded to the address. Just minutes after his arrival on the scene, Officer Matt Doherty used his taser gun. Minutes later, Juan Manuel Nunez III, 27, was dead.

"Nobody can believe that this happened, not on Jarvis Street," said Jody Rinehart, a neighbor.

Police say Nunez was part of a domestic dispute. They say Officer Doherty arrived, saw Nunez in the doorway and said he needed to be brought under control. Doherty then tased Nunez to the ground. He died minutes later.

Nunez was a 2003 graduate of Texas Tech with a degree in Fine Arts.

Lubbock police are tight-lipped. Chief Claude Jones would not comment publicly about the incident.

Doherty has not been put on administrative leave, while the investigation has been handed over to the Texas Attorney General`s office.

Nunez` uncle says yes, his nephew had been drinking, but he says the family saw him as no threat to the officer and he should never have been tased.

"I`m shocked and appalled and i`m waiting to get the rest of the news," he said.

The autopsy report will shed more light on how Nunez died. Officials say it will be a few more days before a cause of death is released.

Several people in Texas have died after being tased, but this is the first time in Lubbock that it has happened.

Man dies soon after Taser shooting

By Venita Jenkins
Staff writer


DUBLIN - A Dublin man collapsed and died Sunday after being shot with a Taser gun by a Bladen County sheriff's deputy.

Billy Ray Cook, 39, of 52 Armfield St., died in the emergency room at Bladen County Hospital.

Four deputies responded to a 911 disturbance call at Governor's Estate subdivision about 11 p.m. The subdivision is off Owen Hill Road near Dublin.

Cook was walking along Governor's Estate Drive yelling and weaving, Sheriff Steve Bunn said. Deputies described Cook as being incoherent and irrational.

"A deputy tried to get him to stop and talk to him. He assaulted the deputy, and a struggle ensued,'' Bunn said.

Cook continued to be combative, Bunn said. The lawmen used a Taser gun to subdue him. Deputies fired at least three times. One shot didn't connect. Only one probe struck Cook during another attempt. Cook snatched the wires off himself, Bunn said. A Taser fires wires tipped with barbed-metal probes that deliver a jolt of 50,000 volts of electricity. The jolt is supposed to incapacitate a person for about five seconds.

"It did not have any effect on him,'' he said. "The deputies finally got him to the ground and handcuffed him.''

At least two deputies could have fired their Tasers, Bunn said.

"We are not certain about it,'' he said.

Cook collapsed a few minutes after being restrained.

"He passed out and was unresponsive,'' Bunn said.

Cook's body was sent to the state Medical Examiner's Office for an autopsy. Lawmen should get the preliminary results today, Bunn said.

"We have no idea what caused him to collapse,'' he said. "The SBI is conducting an investigation into the incident.''

Angie Parker, Cook's ex-wife, said she was told his death was caused by the Taser, and that Cook went into cardiac arrest. Parker said she was disturbed when she learned what happened.

"That's my daughter's father. I was deeply saddened for her,'' she said. "I just feel like they could have used another force of action besides that. I really do. Her dad's gone. It's a tragedy.''

Wonder what other technological goodies they have yet to reveal they are using? War on crime?

Sadly, this very topic was found deserving of its own thread, it's that common...

"nonlethal" Tasers - fatal yet acceptable?
