Nearly 50% Of BLM Protesters Arrested In Seattle Were White, From Other Cities

An analysis of 95 arrest records from Seattle riots from May reveals that nearly half of all suspects are white are white men from other cities who traveled to Seattle to commit crimes, according to King5.

Of 95 cases obtained from public records requests and through court filings, KING 5 found:

48% of suspects are white

18% of suspects are black

28% of cases race was undetermined or not listed

32% of suspects listed Seattle as hometown -King5

The report kicks off with the story of Ed Little, a resident of Everett, WA - located approximately half-an-hour North of Seattle.

"I thought it was crazy. That shouldn’t be happening at all," said Little - who thought that peaceful protests against police brutality had been hijacked by criminals.

Then police came knocking on his door to arrest his 25-year-old son and search the family apartment after Jacob Little was caught on camera stealing a rifle from a burning Seattle police car, firing shots into a crowd, and wounding a 15-year-old boy.

"It’s hard to believe. We don’t know Jake like that. It’s not the kind of boy he is," said Little. "He’s not a troublemaker. Not normally. He doesn’t go out looking for trouble."

Jacob Little pleaded not guilty to federal charges of possessing a stolen firearm and shooting the boy, who survived.

In another case, 20-year-old suburbanite Kelly Jackson was charged by federal prosecutors with throwing Molotov cocktails into Seattle police vehicles in late May. He was immediately fired from his job as a plumber's assistant in Edmonds, WA - some 24 minutes North of Seattle where he lives with his parents.

Savage Corp To Shield High-Value Targets With AI-Drone Killing Missiles

Weaponized drone swarms could easily take out oil refiners, nuclear power plants, airports, government buildings, electrical grids, or even cause unfathomable loss of life at sports stadiums.

A recent paper titled "Are Drone Swarms Weapons of Mass Destructions?," argues such attacks like those mentioned above could be viewed as "weapons of mass destruction."

For example, a massive swarm of drones blew up oil production facilities in Saudi Arabia in 2019. As we recently noted, another incident was unearthed via Freedom of Information Act documents that showed mysterious drone swarms had breached airspace over America's largest nuclear power plant last year.

The question readers should be asking: Where are the layered defense systems that protect these high-value assets?

Well, we might have found one that combats and could completely neutralize a small drone attack.

Defense firm Savage Corp. has developed the SAVAGE missile (Smart Anti-Vehicle Aerial Guided Engagement), a low-cost smart weapon designed with a solid-fuel propellant rocket motor, able to travel around Mach 1, with an effective range of 3 miles, uses thrust-vectoring engines with artificial intelligence to knock small, fast-moving targets out if the sky, like drones.

Forbes said, "the most expensive part of any missile is the guidance system, and this is where SAVAGE is revolutionary."

"SAVAGE uses AI-based computer vision algorithms to detect and track the target," Savage Corp CEO Nick Verini told Forbes in an interview.

Verini said SAVAGE uses a high-tech sensor to detect flying objects in day or night conditions. He said an infrared sensor is an additional option for clients that want to combat drone attacks at night. The warhead on the drone killing missile is "hit-to-kill," meaning it uses kinetic energy to destroy enemy targets.

"We prefer the kinetic impact approach — one missile, one drone — but a potential customer is interested in an explosive payload option for taking down several drones in a 'swarm' with one missile," said Verini.

Launcher concepts on Savage Corp.'s website show the missile can be launched from a shoulder-fired launcher, a vehicle-mounted launch that can hold 64 SAVAGE rounds, and also an aerial launcher from a warplane.

The left-wing bias of Wikipedia

Is Wikipedia’s neutral point of view truly dead?

Wikipedia is the most widely used source of information in the world, and a great deal has been written about its impact on public perception of certain topics. Wikipedia shapes both scientific research and real-world economic outcomes, and is the top source of medical information for both doctors and patients. The widespread reliance on Wikipedia would not be a problem if it were a neutral and authoritative source, but earlier this year Wikipedia’s co-founder Larry Sanger declared that “Wikipedia’s ‘NPOV’ (neutral point of view) is dead.” Is Sanger’s statement correct?

The widespread reliance on Wikipedia would not be a problem if it were a neutral source

A 2018 study by Shane Greenstein and Feng Zhu compared levels of political bias in Wikipedia and Encyclopaedia Britannica by quantifying each encyclopaedia’s respective usage of phrases favoured by Democratic or Republican members of US congress. Their study found that Wikipedia articles are more politically biased than those in Encyclopaedia Britannica, as well as being slanted towards Democratic (as opposed to Republican) points of view. The study also found that the amount of bias in Wikipedia articles tended to decrease the greater the number of people who had edited them. The reason for this trend was explained in an earlier study by the same authors: “Benefitting from the efforts of many contributors, an article is also more likely to present controversial content in an unbiased way: thus diversity may help reduce content bias.”

One limitation of Greenstein and Zhu’s study is that it considered only the contents and histories of Wikipedia articles, and did not examine the site’s internal social dynamics. In this article, we build upon Greenstein and Zhu’s analysis by examining specific mechanisms that produce political bias in Wikipedia, with a focus on administrative decisions at the Arbitration Enforcement noticeboard. We also discuss how this bias ultimately affects the site’s content.

Bias in judgments about sources

Wikipedia has several internal policies intended to prevent the spread of false or biased information. One policy, named “Verifiability,” requires that all content on Wikipedia be based on “reliable, independent, published sources with a reputation for fact-checking and accuracy.” Another policy, “Neutral Point of View” (NPOV), requires that Wikipedia articles include all viewpoints in proportion to their prominence in the source material. This does not necessarily mean giving equal validity to all views: for example, most reliable sources that discuss creationism describe it as an unscientific viewpoint, so NPOV policy requires that Wikipedia present it the same way.

Key points in COVID lockdown Mark 2

Restrictions will start at midnight on Thursday morning and last until December 2.

People can only leave their homes for specific reasons, such as to do essential shopping, for outdoor exercise, and for work if they are unable to work from home.

Non-essential shops will be told to shut, although supermarkets do not need to close off aisles as has happened in Wales.

Restaurants and bars will be told to close unless they can operate a takeaway service.

Leisure centres, gyms, sporting venues, hairdressers and beauty parlours will have to close, although professional sport will continue.

Key businesses that cannot operate remotely - such as construction - should carry on as before with safety precautions.

Places of worship can stay open for private prayer. Funerals are limited to close family only.

The furlough scheme will be extended during the period of the lockdown, rather than ending tomorrow as originally planned.

Exercise is permitted with no limits on frequency, but organised sports - including outdoor activities such as golf - will not be permitted.

When the lockdown lapses the Tiers system will be reinstated, leaving questions about what metric will be used to decide whether areas can have restrictions eased.
