MERCENARIES TRAINING US LOCAL POLICE OFFICERS

There are many police and law enforcement officials who are concerned with the growing trend of using military-trained mercenaries to train and work with local police officers in the United States.

For example, Kentucky's Lexington Police Department contracted private Mercenary Army Blackwater Security International to provide what's described as homeland security training. Meanwhile that city's Mayor Jim Newberry and its chief of police Anthony Beatty refused free training provided by the US Immigration and Customs Enforcement federal program that prepares police officers to enforce immigration and border security as part of their duties.

Lexington is on the nation's list of so-called Sanctuary Cities in which police officers are prohibited from working with ICE or Border Patrol agents in the United States. Critics are angry over the use of local tax dollars to hire Blackwater personnel to train the police.

But Lexington isn't the only city using hired guns to help local police officers. In New Orleans, heavily armed mercenaries from the Blackwater private security firm, infamous for their work in Iraq, are openly patrolling the streets of that beleaguered city.

Some of the mercenaries were reportedly "deputized" by the Louisiana governor and were issued gold Louisiana State law enforcement badges to wear on their chests and Blackwater photo identification cards to be worn on their arms.

While they are working in Louisiana, Blackwater officials say they are on contract with the Department of Homeland Security and have been given the authority to use lethal force if necessary. Some of the mercenaries assigned to patrol the streets of New Orleans recently returned from Iraq, where they provided personal security details for the former head of the US occupation, L. Paul Bremer, and the former US ambassador to Iraq, John Negroponte.

While Blackwater mercenaries are some of the most feared professionals in the world, as military personnel they are accustomed to operating without worry of legal consequences, as are local police officers. This situation is what's disturbing both cops and civilians.

"It amazes me how politicians are so ready to use professional soldiers in a law enforcement capacity. It just doesn't sit right with a lot of cops," said New York Police Officer Edna Aguayo, who received training in homeland security operations.

"We should be using experienced cops and experts in law enforcement as training officers, not former soldiers and mercenaries," she said.

Blackwater, which is based in North Carolina, is one of the leading private security companies providing security personnel in Iraq and Afghanistan. Along with other companies such as Wackenhut Security, Inc., it has several lucrative US government contracts and provides security services -- including bodyguard work -- for many senior US diplomats, foreign dignitaries and corporations.

The company received international exposure when several of its security officers were captured, tortured and killed in Fallujah. Two of their charred bodies were hung from a bridge in March 2004.

"While many Liberals have decried the use of Blackwater in Iraq and Afghanistan, these same Liberals don't seem to mind the use of Blackwater mercenaries within the United States," said conservative political strategist Mike Baker.

"Conservatives are the ones who appear upset over using contracted mercenaries to train cops and perform law enforcement functions. It's a way for politicians to bypass the Posse Comitatus Act that prohibits the military from performing police operations within the US," said Baker.

Some retired police officers believe that private security companies are going to be used to go after Constitutionalists who will not willingly submit to microchip implants and/or the satanic globalization that is currently unfolding.

Although many politicos are saying Blackwater is not performing police functions, their own statement seems to imply that they will provide whatever services a government -- federal, state and local -- desires.

"Man-made and natural disasters require an immediate robust response. Blackwater Worldwide’s extensive training facility and staff of former military and law enforcement professionals can provide the needed training and operational expertise to prepare security teams to effectively support state and federal emergency response units," according to Blackwater's mission statement.

"I'm troubled by the use of military personnel -- whether they be US soldiers or private mercenaries -- performing a police or law enforcement function. While they may be experts in fighting wars, they are not constrained by the US Constitution as to how they operate as cops," said former NYPD detective and owner of FLT Security Services, Sidney Francis.

"Soldiers are soldiers and cops are cops. What's next? Using smart bombs to crash into drug dens?" he asked.

Since its inception in 2003, the US Department of Homeland Security has faced significant challenges related to recruiting, retaining, and managing its workforce of over 170,000 employees.

Recently, the US Congress requested the Government Accountability Office to analyze DHS's attrition, efforts to recruit and retain staff, use of external employees such as officers from private companies, and compliance with certain provisions of the Vacancies Reform Act, which requires agencies to report to Congress and the Comptroller General vacancies in certain presidentially-appointed positions requiring Senate confirmation.

While DHS's overall attrition rate for permanent employees (excluding those in the Senior Executive Service and presidential appointments) declined from 8.4 percent in 2005 to 7.1 percent in 2006.

These rates, which were still above the roughly 4 percent average rate for all cabinet-level agencies, were affected by high levels of attrition (about 14-17 percent) among transportation security officers at DHS's Transportation Security Administration. With the security officers excluded, DHS's attrition rate was 3.3 percent.

DHS implemented agreements under the Intergovernmental Personnel Act, allowing nonfederal employees -- private contractors -- to be temporarily assigned to a federal agency to meet mission needs.

HILLARY'S SCHEME TO REVAMP THE TRADITIONAL FAMILY
By Carey Roberts
March 8, 2008

Hillary Clinton’s personal life has long made a mockery of traditional family values – her betrothal to a serial womanizer, the refusal to have a traditional wedding, and her smears of the females who later accused her husband of sexual impropriety.

Let’s recall her acrid put-down of stay-at-home moms: “I could have stayed home and baked cookies and had teas, but what I decided to do is fulfill my profession.” And when Jennifer Flowers claimed she had had a 12-year affair with Bill, Hillary ludicrously remarked, “I’m not sitting here, some little woman standing by my man like Tammy Wynette.”

If that’s not contempt for women in traditional roles, I don’t know what is.

And no surprise, Hillary Clinton’s vision for families is, might we say, unconventional. And it’s not just her opposition to the Federal Marriage Amendment that would define marriage as the union between a man and a woman.

Back when she was a student at Yale Law School, Hillary wrote in the Harvard Educational Review that “marriage, slavery, and the Indian reservation system” constitute dependency arrangements that must be abolished. Ridiculing the notion that families are “private, nonpolitical units,” she demanded that we “remodel” the time-honored institution.

Two decades later she wrote It Takes a Village, the socialist manifesto that justifies governmental intrusion into the most intimate aspects of family life.

And Clinton’s 2003 book Living History reads like the autobiography of a woman obsessed with feminist activism, a power-mad princess in a pantsuit. She boasts immodestly, “I represented a fundamental change in the way women functioned in our society.”

Remember that Hillary Rodham Clinton, former protégé of Rules for Radicals author Saul Alinsky, is at heart a cultural Marxist. Inducing a fundamental change in motherhood would be insufficient to assure the social transformation that she seeks. Time to put dear ol’ dad on the chopping block.

European social philosopher Wyndham Lewis once noted:

“The male, the Father, is in all these revolutions, the enemy. It is he that has been cast to represent authority. Therefore in modern revolutionary Europe it was he, the male head-of-the-family, who has been aimed at in every insurrection. The break-up of the Family...must begin and end with the eclipse of the Father principle.”

So no surprise, Hillary Clinton has trained her sights on fatherhood.

A few weeks ago researcher Anna Sarkadi published a review in the Acta Pediatrica journal on the impact of fathers on children’s developmental outcomes. The studies showed paternal engagement helped to reduce behavioral problems in boys and psychological problems in girls. Sarkadi concludes a father’s “active and regular engagement with the child predicts a range of positive outcomes.”

But Hillary’s Living History leans over backwards to ignore any meaningful role of dads. On page 132 she writes about “issues affecting women, children, and families.” On page 380 she repeats the identical phrase: “issues affecting women, children, and families.” And on page 269 she notes “Women handle a large share of the responsibility for the welfare of their families,” again ignoring the essential role of fathers.

Then there’s the abortion issue, where Hillary has staked out the most radical of positions, even supporting partial-birth abortion and a teenage girl’s right to get an abortion absent parental permission.

Abortion-on-demand strikes a chilling blow to a father’s natural rights. As Justice White wrote in his stirring dissent to Planned Parenthood v. Danforth, “It is truly surprising that the majority finds in the United States Constitution, as it must in order to justify the result it reaches, a rule that the State must assign a greater value to a mother’s decision to cut off a potential human life by abortion than to a father’s decision to let it mature into a live child.”

Dr. Alan Carlson of Howard University adds cogently, “on the question of abortion, the father is irrelevant, with no more interest in the fate of the baby than a stranger from Mars.”

In her famous 1993 “politics of meaning” speech, Clinton called for a redefinition of personhood itself. She told the startled audience, “Let us be willing to remold society by refining what it means to be a human being in the 20th century.”

As presidential candidate, Hillary Clinton has billed herself as the proponent of “real” change. One has to wonder where her “real” change will lead us -- to the hollow shell of a family structure that all but shuns traditional notions of fatherhood and motherhood?
