Training Day **Graphic**

EL CAJON - August 21, 2011 - An officer is shot right in front of a news camera. The entire event is caught on camera including shots fired, officer rescue, SWAT standoff, house fire, helicopter water drops, and more.

The suspect, Kevin Collier, shot his 1-year old daughter, his mother-in-law and then police showed up (me too). Upon arriving, officers were met with gunfire from the suspect who had an assault rifle of some sort. Officer Jared Slocum was struck in the left temple, where it exited the rear of his skull. He was NOT shot in the neck, as it appears. The suspect then set the house on fire, before shooting himself. The fire department could not approach because officers could not confirm if the suspect was dead or not. Firefighters are not going to walk up to a home with the possibility of a man inside with an assault rifle. Officers requested Mercy Air for transport, but instead took the wounded officer by ground in a patrol car as it would be much quicker. This was on a dead-end street, so the rescue of having to pass the line of fire was very risky. A gas line explodes at one point (bluish smoke). SWAT set up and work with the fire department to help slow the rate of spread. Two helicopters begin water drops, which I have never seen before on a structure, only brush fires. Officer Slocum is doing well, but has decided to "medically retire" from the El Cajon Police Department, move, and go back to college. The officer who was with him, Officer Tim McFarland, was a rookie at the time and was being trained by Slocum. So if anyone wants to badmouth him, keep in mind he was still learning the ropes and in my opinion did everything right. Officer Slocum's wound, although severe due to the location, had very very little blood loss. So for those appauled that none of us applied pressure, quite frankly it wasn't neccessary and he was capable of doing it himself. And for all you anti-cop commenters, keep in mind, officers are still humans with families. The men and women in this video are excellent officers. Especially Slocum and McFarland.

Former El Cajon Police Chief (at the time) Pat Sprecco said "That'll be used as a training tool for a long time", referring to the footage.

EL CAJON - May 18, 2012 - Officers Jared Slocum and Tim McFarland speak with reporters about the August 21, 2011 shooting where Officer Slocum was shot in the head. Citizen hero Dave Lembcke also speaks. Later that night at the El Cajon Police Awards, all three received several prestigeous awards for their heroic efforts. The entire ordeal was caught on tape by SanDiegoNewsVideo.com as it happened on that tragic day, which started after a suspect shot his 1 year old daughter and his mother-in-law. The suspect then shot at officers, striking Officer Slocum in the left temple. The suspect then lit his house on fire and shot himself. Doctors say it's a miracle Slocum survived and is doing as well as he is, although he still has some recovery to go through. Slocum has decided to "medically retire" from the El Cajon Police Department, move, and attend college.

God Bless all the men and women of Law Enforcement.

Rubio in Iowa

After two failed consecutive elections to a Progressive President, it is obvious that Americans do not want to choose between Democrat and Democrat Lite.  The Progressives have ruined much of the economy in the last four years and yet they won by a very slim margin as many Conservatives sat this election cycle out.  The next four year will be very difficult has the Progressive fall back to their usual tactics of raising taxes on the Rich.  People, get a clue, all taxes are paid by everyone.  Politics of Envy will only fail. Look at what is happening in Europe.

Senator Marco Rubio (R) is debuting in Iowa early on so that the American people can see what he can bring to the table and show that there are viable solutions that offer much better results then the FAIL policies of the Democrats.

Plot Thickening

Benghazi-Gate   9-11-2012

The Government actions are being peeled away one stinking layer at a time.  It makes for a wonderful distraction as many get to see all of  Byzantine machinations that take place in running an empire.

What's done is done. An Ambassador and three patriots are dead.  Al-Qaeda is still active. The stability of the middle-east is gone and our only ally in the area is surrounded by hostile forces.

Democrats won't steal everything.  Conservatives must make a stand to this Progressive avalanche that has cursed this nation.

Living with Terror

I remember as a kid that I had this video game, Missile Command on my Atari 2600.  I remember listening to warning sirens every Tuesdays at 10:00 am and the Nuns at my school having emergency drills.  As time went on, these drills became less and less frequent until they all together stopped.  I would later learn that I was participating in a ritual that had been around since the beginning of the Cold War.  The above videos are shocking to watch as the people of Israel are now living this game but it isn't a game for them. They are living in Terror.

Meanwhile, back in the War

Progressive nuns in the Catholic Church are causing not only it's ruination but also that of the United States. Perhaps if they went back to what is written in the Bible then what has been authored by Satan's minions, things would actually be better.

Succession?

I don't think that is a good idea.  It will only quicken this nation's destruction and there is already one up and coming super-power waiting in the wings.  Civil wars are bloody matters and ours caused more deaths then all the other wars that we have participated in.  We don't want to travel that road again.

MSM Anti-Christian Bias

The Joke is Communism

This article is about a social event in China that is similar to our Valentine's Day, that's nice.  I really was disgusted by the parts of the articles that go against the primary tenents of the Left. Really Commie-guys?  What ever happened to from each according to their ability and to each according to their needs?

A Communist Chinese Billionaire.  A Communist Chinese Billionaire.  A Communist Chinese Billionaire.

It also helps having such environment rich resources like the MSM at your beck and call.

Distraction Operation

MSM Propaganda machine is working overdrive, as it kept the story about Benghazi quiet before the election.  It is now falling over itself with non-stop coverage of General Petraeus.  The Mob will fall for it like they always do.
