George A. Romero, "Night of the Living Dead" creator, dies at 77 ...
Romero died Sunday in his sleep after a “brief but aggressive battle with lung cancer,” according to a family statement to The Times provided by his longtime producing partner, Peter Grunwald. He was 77. [Verstecktes Bild - Registrierung notwendig] It was the night of April 4, 1968, and George A. Romero was driving to New York City from Pittsburgh on a mission: In the days to come he was to meet with film studios in hopes that one might buy the horror film he was lugging in his trunk, “Night of the Flesh Eaters.” None of the studios was interested, but Romero still managed to get his $114,000 film in front of audiences that year. And though critics panned the picture, retitled “Night of the Living Dead,” moviegoers were mesmerized — packing theaters, hitting the drive-ins in droves and making Romero the father of the modern movie zombie. Romero’s “Living Dead” franchise went on to create a subgenre of horror movie whose influence across the decades has endured, seen in movies like “The Purge” and TV shows like “The Walking Dead.” |

 The city in the fire. How Hamburg suffered from extremists ... Hamburg, Germany, was on fire as up to 100,000 left wing extremists have descended upon the city to protest, injuring more than 100 police officers and doing untold damage prior to the start of this weekend’s G20 summit. [Verstecktes Bild - Registrierung notwendig] [Verstecktes Bild - Registrierung notwendig] Scenes from the smoky city skyline look eerily similar to those of Middle Eastern war zones. “Activists torched more cars, vandalised shops, threw petrol bombs, set fire to patrol vehicles near a police station and even fired flares at the several police helicopters buzzing overhead,” reports AFP. [Verstecktes Bild - Registrierung notwendig] The intentions of these ‘black block’ activists are clear: they hope to ignite chaos across the West, and they are prepared to clash violently with police and military if necessary. [Verstecktes Bild - Registrierung notwendig] “With 200 people we have shown to millions of people that it’s possible to bring people onto the streets and make clear that we are not going to simply accept everything decided by the people at the top,” said one unnamed activist in Hamburg. “And we believe that we have brought across a pretty good message — that it’s possible to protest and that there is no need to be scared of the police.” [Verstecktes Bild - Registrierung notwendig] In addition to barbarous mayhem, some anti-capitalist leftists are staging ‘zombie’ marches to demonstrate their ‘political apathy.’ [Verstecktes Bild - Registrierung notwendig] Despite police presence of up to 20,000 officers from all around Germany and Austria, reinforcements are still being called in as ‘protests’ are expected to escalate in ferocity through the weekend. [Verstecktes Bild - Registrierung notwendig] #NoG20 and ‘Welcome to Hell’ march organizer Andreas Blechschmidt claims that law enforcement’s response has been ‘too rough’ and ‘heavy handed.’ “The police should have reacted proportionally… It wasn’t necessary,” he said. “There are a lot of people injured.” So what awaits us next? |

Otto Warmbier - US student sent home from North Korea dies [Verstecktes Bild - Registrierung notwendig] So brutal is the North Korean detention system that a perfectly healthy and innocent American who was given a 15 year sentence last year after attempting to bring home a political propaganda poster from a hotel he was staying in has died as his condition was the reason for his early release aswell as mistreatment being an obvious factor. Only 21 at the time of his arrest, his one act of stupidity effectively cost him his life. North Korea is a brutal country and along with Saudi Arabia is the worst country in the world. I think calling these places hell would be a compliment to hell! - [Versteckter Link - Registrierung notwendig] |

eigentor wrote:...Well, it's not that 1 dimensional. Also the democrats won't dare to significantly restrict the gun laws because they want to be elected again. I have some American friends and all of them have guns. In first place most Americans need a gun to feel being able to defend family and property, like many Germans need an Autobahn without speed limit to feel free. And in rural areas you need a gun because of wild animals. Especially bears meanwhile enter the outskirts of the big cities. So it will be really difficult to balance the completely opposite requirements between both. And on the other hand there are so many guns in the U.S., even if they completely stop selling new ones the situation won't really change for several years. Regards Joker |

Scottishbloke wrote:With regards to the Virginia shooting...[/i]Of course this shooting is a tragedy, but sorry: to put the blame on the "Mainstream Media" coverage of Trump is, imho, ridiculous. If you want to read or watch real hatred in the media, take a look at Breitbart, Infowars, Fox etc. Or listen to some of Trumps own speeches. And maybe the US should rethink their gun laws in the first place. But this will never happen because the Republicans and also a huge chunk of the Democrats are deep in the pockets of the NRA. As if 'more guns' equals 'more security'.
