    Various and different illustrations of the issues of the summer, such as the endless fake 911 call about threatening black men, etc. People burning Costco down rather than wear a mask. That kinda stuff. Incidents.

    Oklahoma Woman Shot While Trying to Steal Man’s Nazi Flag, Authorities Say
    The victim had been with friends at a nearby party when she apparently snatched one of the swastika flags displayed outside the man’s home
    Published June 30, 2020 • Updated on July 1, 2020
    An Oklahoma man who proudly flies Nazi flags at his home opened fire on a young woman who tried to steal one of those banners, officials said.

    Alexander John Feaster, 44, was being held in the Garfield County Jail on Tuesday, booked for assault and battery with a deadly weapon and shooting with intent to kill, according to jail administrators.

    Deputies in Hunter, a small town about 90 miles north of Oklahoma City, found the 26-year-old woman in a ditch Sunday after she had been shot in the back by Feaster between three and five times with a 5.56mm rifle, according to Garfield County Sheriff Jody Helm.

    from A white Florida man who was filmed yelling at a Black homeowner while waving a BB gun also faked being a Navy SEAL for years, report says

    https://www.yahoo.com/news/white-florida-man-filmed-yelling-101251367.html

    It also appears that Fucheck may have broken a state law by having a license plate designated for Purple Heart recipients.

    In order to get that license plate, one has to submit military paperwork to the Florida Department of Highway Safety and Motor Vehicles.

    Fucheck remains jailed on a charge of aggravated assault with prejudice. If convicted, he faces up to 15 years in prison.

    Tucker Carlson’s ‘top writer’ had to resign:https://www.cnn.com/2020/07/10/media/tucker-carlson-writer-blake-neff/index.html

    …The top writer for Fox News host Tucker Carlson has for years been using a pseudonym to post bigoted remarks on an online forum that is a hotbed for racist, sexist, and other offensive content, CNN Business learned this week.
    Just this week, the writer, Blake Neff, responded to a thread started by another user in 2018 with the subject line, “Would u let a JET BLACK congo n****er do lasik eye surgery on u for 50% off?” Neff wrote, “I wouldn’t get LASIK from an Asian for free, so no.” (The subject line was not censored on the forum.) On June 5, Neff wrote, “Black doods staying inside playing Call of Duty is probably one of the biggest factors keeping crime down.” On June 24, Neff commented, “Honestly given how tired black people always claim to be, maybe the real crisis is their lack of sleep.” On June 26, Neff wrote that the only people who care about changing the name of the NFL’s Washington Redskins are “white libs and their university-‘educated’ pets.” …

    Israel destroys COVID-19 testing clinic in Hebron as cases soar

    As the number of coronavirus cases in Palestine continue to soar, Israeli forces demolished this week a COVID-19 testing clinic in the city of Hebron, the epicenter of the outbreak in the occupied West Bank.

    According to locals, Israeli forces demolished the clinic in the middle of the night, just before sunrise on Tuesday morning.

    This is an interesting little piece on the ‘Peekskill riot’ which happened at a Paul Robeson concert in 1949.

    from https://www.tmz.com/2020/08/01/florida-man-hangs-on-hood-semi-truck-big-rick-highway/

    FLORIDA MAN CLINGS TO HOOD OF BIG RIG TRUCK

    The driver, Edward Hughes, tells TMZ … this dude hopped onto the interstate bloodied and frantic, waving for the truck to stop … which Hughes says he did. Once he did that, Hughes claims the guy latched onto his hood and started using a metal object on his windshield.

    Hughes says he panicked and hit the gas, trying to shake the man off … as he was successfully breaking through the glass. Hughes got some shots of the damage, and it looks like this fella was hacking away during the mayhem, and broke through a bit too.

    from Hurricane Laura topples Confederate monument town had voted to keep
    A Louisiana city voted this month to keep the controversial statue standing. Hurricane Laura had other plans.

    Just two weeks after the city of Lake Charles, La., voted to keep a Confederate monument standing, Hurricane Laura brought it down on Thursday with 150 mph winds as it made landfall along the state’s coast.
