113Tidbits: The Week In Terrorism

Will america do a faceplant to terrorism?

This is the future heading to an American city near you? Everyday these horrific events are going on un-punished. When will the rest of the world get off their asses and do something about this? Your guess is as good as mine. Obama definitely doesn't have the gumption or cajones to do anything. By the way, didn't Iran launch newly upgraded missiles today?

Lord save us!!

That is the message being sent. How long do we sit silent? Do you sit silent till you appear at a Shari counsel for sentencing of stoning for being an infidel? Fanatical Islam will kill you just like it does around the world:

2009.12.15 (Dera Ghazi Khan, Pakistan) – Thirty-three shoppers at an outdoor market are blown apart by a Fedayeen suicide car bomber.

2009.12.15 (Kabul, Afghanistan) – A suicide car bomber takes out seven people standing outside a hotel.

2009.12.15 (Gardez, Afghanistan) – Five people are blown to bits by Jihadi bombers.

2009.12.14 (Pattani, Thailand) – A 37-year-old woman is slashed to death by Muslim radicals.

2009.12.14 (al-Manari, Iraq) – A man and his family are murdered in their home by suspected al-Qaeda.

2009.12.14 (Narathiwat, Thailand) – Muslims gun down a 38-year-old Buddhist.

113Tidbits: How To Kill A Man Over A 10 Cent Song

A forum that I belong to was having a really around the mulberry tree discussion over the death penalty. this final post is what stands out for me. It illustrates the ideas of a person in the trenches. Cleaning up the tragedies of murderers and how they eventually live off of the pain of the victims' families anguish.

I also believe the death penalty is justified and required for those that cross the ultimate of The 10 Commandments. What about you, are you sentimental for the accused?

The first shooting I investigated was when a woman shot a man in a bar. She had put her money in the jukebox and he pushed a button and played her song. She had a gun in her purse and shot the man. That was in 1970, the song cost ten cents.

Since that time I have worked on more murder investigations than I care to remember.
I have had to witness the devastation dealt to the families of victims. I have seen murder's families suffer due to the actions to which they had no connection.

Most jurisdictions take every possible measure to assure that the suspect had a fair trial.
The taxpayers pay to capture the suspect. We pay the state to prosecute and we pay the public defender to present a defense. Then we pay for the appeal process.

Yes, the process could be shortened and should be. The death penalty may or may not be a deterrent to violent crimes. No one who has been executed has ever killed another person.

If you doubt the death penalty, I wish you could see the smile on the face of a confessed serial killer. (At least nine victims.) I have. I strongly support the death penalty.

113Tidbits: Securing The Homestead Without Wires

Wireless security systems use the same components as other security systems such as the touchpad, control panel, cameras, detectors, and alarms. Wireless systems rely on radio frequencies that are transmitted by the door contacts, windows, and motion activated sensors. The touch pads that are located at the entrances to the home will provide activation and deactivation of the system. In the event of the power failing, a backup system will take over the wireless system and continue to provide security for your home.

And for my own personal system at the office, I tied in the wireless router and added a minute spycam to offer a surveillance option. To this day, we have had no problems.

113Tidbits: Technology And The Newer Home Alarm Systems

Believe it or not, the windows are actually the key to home security. Homes that have poor constructed windows tend to get broken into a lot more than homes with secure and sturdy windows. When you are dealing with your windows, you should make sure that you have tough glass and locks that fit to the windows. When you are away from home, you should always make sure that your windows are locked. Even though some windows may be hard to reach, you should always lock them. Burglars make a living out of stealing – and they will normally find a way in if they see the opening.

Along with the windows, doors are also known to be a weakness of security around the home. Doors should always be strong and sturdy, complete with tough locks that aren’t easy to force open. If you have a spare key, you should be careful where you leave it. Losing your keys can also make you a target, especially if you have anything on your key ring that reveals your home address.

To better protect their homes, most people choose to invest in a variety of home alarm systems. These systems are great for monitoring the home, as they can record video and keep it stored for you to view later. If you travel a lot, a home surveillance system can be an ideal way to keep a check on your home while you’re away.
