| Mass shooting in Colorado Springs targeted Planned Parenthood. |
The Republicans were pretty confident that they could take on the women's health provider. Because of the undercover videos that were released showing Planned Parenthood workers explaining fetal tissue, Republicans have vowed to defund the organization.
Insurgents like Donald Trump, Ted Cruz, Marco Rubio, Ben Carson and Carly Fiorina have vowed defund Planned Parenthood.
It was getting major play on that right wing network. The AM agitators have brought it up.
It also inspired terrorists to create havoc among the providers and patients. There were over 10 incidents where terrorists have sought havoc on Planned Parenthood. This one happens to attract the junk food media's attention.
A terrorist who opened fire on lawmen and innocent civilians at a Planned Parenthood yesterday. The residents of Colorado Springs, Colorado once again experienced another major shooting in their community. The last shooting was a 31-year old terrorist who opened fire on civilians. He managed to kill four before the law killed him.
The city of Colorado Springs is one of the safest cities in the United States. These latest incidents of mass shootings in the city have the nation once again griping with the debate over firearms and the threat of terrorism (i.e. right wing extremism).
The president and Colorado's Democratic governor John Hickenlooper were notified.
World News Today send our condolences to those lost in this senseless tragedy.
CNN reports that three people were shot dead Friday, including university police Officer Garrett Swasey, whose body was escorted out early Saturday morning by his fellow officers. Five officers and four civilians are hospitalized in good condition, according to city police Lt. Catherine Buckley, after the assault.

| This terrorist currently held in lock up on capital murder of a lawman and civilians. |
Planned Parenthood, which delivers reproductive health care and sex education to women and men across the United States, has come under attack before. But the group said Friday night that it didn't know anything about this facility being "targeted deliberately."
"The heart of Planned Parenthood of the Rocky Mountains is broken ... as we try to make sense of the horrific tragedy," the provider's regional division tweeted.

| Ketanya Craion was a hostage. She said that see the terrorist shooting at the law. |
They have, however, identified the man they say is responsible: 57-year-old Robert Lewis Dear.
This terrorist was being held without bail Saturday in a Colorado Springs jail, according to the El Paso County Sheriff's Office website. He is scheduled to appear in court on Monday.
Ketanya Craion was in an exam room when the shooting began Friday morning. Three people were killed and nine others were injured before police arrested 57-year-old Robert Dear after an hours-long standoff.
“When I saw him shooting the guns, it looked like he was talking to himself as he was shooting,” said Craion.
Craion said she ran out of the exam room and into another, where she found a nurse and a patient unaware of the shooting.
“She was about to release the other girl to go back to the lobby because she was done with the services that they were doing,” she said. “When I came in, they weren’t aware of anything until they heard the gunshots and me identify that there was a gunman on site.
Craion said she and the others pushed an exam bed up against the door since it didn’t have a lock. The three of them sat in front of the door for about five hours.
Police haven’t released a motive for the shooting or said whether the Planned Parenthood clinic was the intended target. Dear exchanged gunfire with police throughout the day, authorities said.
“It looked like maybe there was someone outside that he was trying to aim at before he actually entered in the Planned Parenthood,” said Craion.
Okay, I want to know who's actually going to take the blame? Obviously the junk food media will attack someone. Obviously I am going to automatically blame the shooter. But who would you blame for this tragedy.
Now that the Planned Parenthood Shooter is captured, who really deserves the blame?
Let me be clear, that gun violence is the number one threat in the United States. I believe that our country is so tone deaf to mass shootings. It's like President Barack Obama said, we're numb to these events.
We reacted quickly to the terrorist attacks in Paris, France. The moment it was revealed the terrorist were supporters of the Islamic State, American lawmakers automatically tried to pass legislation to restrain Syrian and Iraqi refugees from entering the country. They did more in Congress to stop refugees from entering the country than trying to stop mass shootings.

Today is National Adoption Day.
A number of courts and communities in the United States come together to finalize thousands of children from foster care. More than 300 events are held each year on the Saturday before the Thanksgiving weekend.
In the U.S. and Puerto Rico, many American children in foster care will be adopted.
About 40,000 children could be adopted a year from foster care.
It was started by The Alliance for Children's Rice, Children's Action Network, the Freddie Mac Foundation and the Dave Thomas Foundation for Adoption.
The Wendy's founder Dave Thomas grew up in a foster home and before he started one of the country's largest fast food restaurants, he devoted his life to community service.
He would create the foundation to help young children find homes.
The U.S. Supreme Court ruled that the definition of marriage is bound by two loving couples. Now straight and gay couples across the United States will have an opportunity to adopt children.
My community has the Montgomery County Job and Family Services. The adoption home sits on 1921 North Main Street. It's been there for years. The adoption agency is devoted to help children find homes.
World News Today offers our support to National Adoption Day.
No child should not be without a home.

I am sharing my experience of traveling in Canada.
I went to the town of Dresden, Ontario. It's about 76 miles from Detroit. I was traveling the Highway 401 towards London. I saw the sign that said Uncle Tom's Cabin Historic Site.
I couldn't help but go and visit this.
It's a part of Civil Rights History.
The Henson estate. Josiah Henson, a former slave, author, abolitionist, and minister, who, through his 1849 autobiography The Life of Josiah Henson, Formerly a Slave, Now an Inhabitant of Canada, as Narrated by Himself, was the inspiration for Harriet Beecher Stowe's title character in her novel Uncle Tom's Cabin.[
The 5-acre (20,000 m2) complex is part of the original 200 acres (0.81 km2) of land purchased in 1841 to establish the Dawn Settlement, a community for escaped slaves.
The original Henson cabin was located on a different location nearby and opened as a museum in the 1940s by an area farmer, William Chapple.
The house was moved to the existing location in 1964 by J.D. Thomson, and subsequently was owned and operated by Kent County, Ontario and then the St. Clair Parkway Commission. Uncle Tom's Cabin Historic Site has been owned by the Ontario Heritage Trust since 2005.
Henson Family Cemetery is located on the site. The original cabin was moved slightly for the museum and interactive centre.
I show some pictures and also posted my first YouTube video in five years.
Have you visited the National Underground Railroad Museum in Cincinnati?
Have you read about Mother Moses?

| Conservative outrage over Pope Francis addressing climate change. |
Cue the conservative outrage. If the president decided to attack the pope on his stances towards women, the LGBT community, and the ongoing investigations into religious priest molesting children, the racist right would go bonkers.
They would call the president anti-whatever.
According to the racist right, President Barack Obama is anti-gun, anti-Israel, anti-White, anti-Black, anti-Catholic, anti-American, and anti-whatever.
Obama is not allowed to criticize a mass shooting, the racial divide, the need for reform, and leaders the conservatives support. But it's cool for them.
The Pope is a "Marxist" says conservative comedian Greg Gutfield. For what reason?
The Pope had called for worshipers to respect the planet. In their minds of the lunatics running, Francis believes in climate change.
Now that the lunatics running for that red nose are pissed off at Pope Francis, are the conservative agitators willing to attack Republicans for attacking the Pope?

| The biggest douche to run for an election fires the first shots at his faith. |
Can he have respect for this planet.
Man does contribute to the planet. From the animals we wipe outs to the active weather events, its here and apparently it's getting worse.
The attacks on the Pope began with Go-Go Gadget Santorum. Perennial candidate Rick Santorum decided to take it upon himself to tell the Pope to shut up about climate change.
Then it went on to Big Chris Christie. The New Jersey governor attacked the Pope.
Perennial candidate Mike "Uncle Sugar" Huckabee and Jeb Bush decided to now pile on this attack of the Pope.
Two notorious concern trolls happen to get into the fray. That old fart Rush Limbaugh went on a rant about the Pope and even San Fran's biggest weenier Michael Savage decided to call out the religious leader.
It's pathetic to say that climate change is a joke. But what do you expect from a bunch of jokes running for higher office!

| The U.S. Treasury announced a new design for the $10 bill. The bill will feature a woman. |
Who will get blamed now that the conservatives found out this bit of historical news?
A. Barack Obama
B. Hillary Clinton
C. Michelle Obama
D. Women's Rights Groups
E. Liberals
F. All of These Above
Guess who's on the $10 American bill?
Okay, I give you a hint..... He was the first U.S. Treasury Secretary and a statesman. He was assassinated in a duel. He was a founding member of this great country.
Give up.
Okay, his name is Alexander Hamilton. He's not a president. He and founding father Benjamin Franklin are on American currency. Hamilton and Franklin are not presidents. But they are honored respectively for their achievements.
Benjamin Franklin is on the $100 American bill. That is the highest domination to exist. There are rare higher domination bills. But the United States mandates that no amount shall exceed $100.
Alexander Hamilton is on the $10 American bill.
When the year 2020 comes, the U.S. Treasury will be kicking him to the curb.
It was announced by current U.S. Secretary Jack Lew that a woman would be featured on a redesigned ten-dollar bill by 2020. The Department of Treasury is seeking the public's input on whom should appear on the new bill.
So who's gonna get the prize?
My top choices for nomination.
1. Michelle Obama (living)
2. Nancy Reagan (living)
3. Hillary Clinton (living)
4. Harriet Tubman
5. Susan B. Anthony
6. Jacqueline Kennedy
7. Betsy Ross
8. Martha Washington
9. Mary Todd Lincoln
10. Shirley Chisolm
11. Claudia Alta Taylor "Lady Bird" Johnson
12. Coretta Scott King
13. Rosa Parks
14. Elizabeth Cady Stanton
15. Sacagawea
So your thoughts on this?
Send it to me and S. Baldwin.
