Travel Warnings and Travel Alerts
Milwaukee, Wisconsin
Demonstrations take place in Milwaukee, Wisconsin regularly in response to world events or local developments. We remind American citizens that even demonstrations intended to be peaceful can turn confrontational and possibly escalate into violence. American citizens are therefore urged to avoid the areas of demonstrations if possible, and to exercise caution if within the vicinity of any demonstrations. American citizens should stay current with media coverage of local events and be aware of their surroundings at all times.

Needed to make a dump run. [No trash pick up here] I also got lucky and caught the cat from he*& that was in my shop and returned it to the lady I got it from. I stopped at the feed store to see how donations were going. The people in this area are amazing! They have filled two cargo trailers and more coming in every hour. One of the lumber distributors in Spokane that the Hardware store deals with heard we needed help. A full pallet of bottled water is on its way. While I was at the dump[actually a transfer station] I decided to check out there metal recycling area. The man who runs the place is the friend who lost everything in the fire. A large truck had just dumped a large load of metal. Low and behold there were 9 rolls of barbed wire sitting there still on the spools. 5 rolls were brand new. I grabbed them all and went back to the office. My friend had lost all of his livestock fencing. He was thrilled to see the wire. We loaded it all into his rig so he can start fencing again. It has been a truly blessed day!

POtuS was immediately driven to a carefully chosen flood-damaged neighborhood that had photogenic piles of rubble which provided appropriate photo-ops that will show his caring nature while streets were clean so as not to dirty his loafers. No word yet as to if happy groups of mud-sweeping natives sang secular hymns and songs of praise as he passed.

I have discussed the existence of these type of flights for quite a while; Bob and I both talked about them during San Bern, but this is the first time I have ever seen them spoken of being utilized by local LEO. I’m guessing the FBI “loaned” the City of Baltimore the time which is why it was stated to be “provided by an anon donor”.

Very interesting. What is your take on privacy issues?

Privacy issues in regards to these flights? Or in general to domestic LEO surveillance?
That is a bit of a loaded question(s)… but I’d gladly invite the discussion. At the end of the day I believe there should be ethical oversight for any type of surveillance being conducted on US Citizens. And there is the rub; “ethical oversight”!

The technology is fascinating and impressive. The question is (I think) if it is a violation of privacy to photograph public spaces. Is my backyard a public space? I don’t know.

That is an interesting legal standing. What if they were tracking a known felon who happened to hop your fence into the backyard; does that violate one’s privacy and/or private property?
It’s inferred tech; what if it caught you and Mr Stella taking a stress relieving break in your own backyard pool house while following said felon?
It is definitely a delicate issue. I just know that the FBI is conducting these types of flights regularly and that is based off of a good bit of research I personally have done once the existence was known and even tied to the Stingrays.

I guess I really don’t know where I stand, so I’m interesting in what other people have to say about it. Talking things out sometimes clears up ambiguity.

I haven’t read the article yet but the first two things that come to my mind are 1) air rights, all air in most states 80 – 500 feet above the tallest structure on the land and/or the highest natural protrusion is owned by the feds. 2) Precedent. Police have used helicopters for decades and viewed and made available to the public for viewing people’s properties which are unrelated to the perpetrator being pursued in the search.
It looks like an interesting article but I might have to wait until tomorrow to read it.

Italy quake: ‘People trapped under rubble’ following 6.0 magnitude tremor which rocked heart of the country
http://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/2016/08/24/italy-quake-64-magnitude-tremor-rocks-perugia/
A magnitude 6.0 earthquake struck central Italy early on Wednesday, with reports of damaged buildings and blackouts near the epicentre Rieti and residents fleeing their homes and running into the streets.
The shallow quake, estimated to have struck after 3:30am at a depth of 4km, was felt across a broad section of central Italy, including the capital Rome where people in homes in the historic centre felt a long swaying followed by aftershocks.
The European Mediterranean Seismological Centre put the magnitude at 6.1 and said the epicentre was northeast of Rome, near Rieti. The US Geological Survey put the magnitude at 6.2.
