🚨A New Orleans cop made “KISSY NOISES” to check a family’s yard for dogs... then fired THREE SHOTS into a 16-WEEK-OLD PUPPY who ran up to him WAGGING HIS TAIL... ...and even though a JURY found he VIOLATED that family’s rights, he got QUALIFIED IMMUNITY!!!! Yes, you read that right. A jury said what he did was unreasonable, and he still walked. The puppies name was Apollo, he was a 16-week-old rescue puppy. On April 10th, 2021, neighbors called police over an argument at Derek Brown and Julia Barecki-Brown’s home. Officer Derrick Burmaster showed up, in his own words, he made “kissy noises” to see if there was a dog behind the fence. When he heard a bark, he DREW HIS GUN. His partner tapped him on the shoulder to signal they should leave the yard. The partner walked back out the gate. Burmaster stayed, Apollo ran toward him and according to the court record, Apollo never barked, growled, jumped, bared his teeth, or lunged. Burmaster covered his crotch with one hand and fired THREE TIMES with the other. Julia ran out screaming, “How could you sh00t a puppy?” Apollo D*ED in his family’s arms. ...this wasn’t the first time he did it either Police records show Burmaster fatally SH0T another dog back in 2012. NOPD’s own investigators said Apollo posed NO threat. They noted he never considered his Taser or just not sh00ting the dog. Multiple internal reviews called the shooting “UNJUSTIFIED.” Then the family sued... and in July 2023, department leadership CLEARED HIM of wrongdoing. In June 2025, a federal jury found he acted in an “objectively unreasonable manner" and that same jury handed him QUALIFIED IMMUNITY. The family appealed. On July 14th of 2026, the Fifth Circuit AFFIRMED it. The bodycam footage CLEARLY shows this was unjustified... WHAT ARE WE DOING HERE?!!!!!!

Yes, you read that right... A little boy saw a hurt kitten on the side of the road, his bus driver let him save it, and she lost her job for it. Her name is Cynthia Morgan. For 11 years she drove kids in Harford County, most recently to North Harford Elementary. Parents say every fall she BOUGHT SCHOOL SUPPLIES for EVERY child on her bus. Oh, and she also bought: -> Christmas gifts. -> Birthday cards. All out of her own pocket, for all her bus stop students. In one mom’s words: “She is an angel. She is the most caring person.” Then one day... in rural Pylesville, the boy spotted an injured kitten by the road. He was the ONLY child on the bus Cynthia stopped, he hopped off, scooped up the kitten, and held it the whole way to school. On October 5th, the district’s transportation director sent a letter to the contractor that employs her and stripped her of her certification. More than 10,000 people have signed a petition to bring her back. Even freaking PETA wrote to the Board of Education TODAY demanding a review of the situation The boy’s mother is BEYOND FURIOUS... if you can't let a boy rescue a kitten on a country road, what CAN you do?!!!! WHAT ARE WE DOING HERE?!!!!!!!!

🚨#BREAKING: Outrage is erupting after a mob of Black "teens" dragged a White female college student off her own porch BY HER HAIR, dragged her to a stop sign, and then beat her UNCONSCIOUS... TWICE... ...while a crowd stood around FILMING it!!! The girls called 911 **FIVE TIMES** that night, but police didn't show up until AFTER the beating was over. This happened near York College in Pennsylvania. A group of students, young White women, were on the porch of their off-campus house when a stranger walked up and picked a fight and a mob of Black "teens" rushed them. One of the girls was ripped off the porch by her hair, dragged to a stop sign, then roughly a dozen people jumped her at once, kicking and punching her from every angle while a crowd of up to 30 encircled her. She blacked out TWICE... once from a kick to the ribs and again from a blow to the back of the head. And the whole time, she says, people were recording it on their phones and laughing... filming her get beaten unconscious for entertainment. Her friends were dragged down the steps by their hair too. One was already in a knee brace, recovering from an injury. The girls say they called 911 FIVE separate times. The first calls went out BEFORE the violence even started, when a crowd was gathering and cars were street racing so recklessly that one of them smashed into a parked car next to the firehouse. Five calls. They were told each time that officers were coming. Officers didn't arrive until it was over. Students say this isn't new and that large crowds gather there constantly, and that another student was attacked just two weeks earlier by what they believe is the same group of non-students. "The cops haven't done anything to protect us, and campus safety hasn't done anything. It feels like they're scared to get involved with 'these' people, but then it puts us at risk when they're doing nothing." WE DO NOT HAVE TO LIVE LIKE THIS!!!!!!

🚨#BREAKING: The bodycam footage from the police officer who sh0t and k*lled the miniature donkey 'HeeHaw" in Georgia has been released. In his official report, the officer stated that the minature donkey "charged" at him. A K-9 handler then deployed his taser at HeeHaw, which, "did not deter the donkey"... Officer Garner then said: ..."so I removed my department issued Glock 17 from its holster and pointed it at the donkey. I then fired a single round striking the donkey,” Garner also wrote that he and K-9 units from multiple agencies “spooked” horses who ran away, but HeeHaw "charged" at them. Hannah, the owner, said he would NEVER charged at anyone and he constantly goes to petting zoos with kids and adults at NURSING HOMES and has never once "charged" at anyone. The bodycam footage seems to show the HeeHaw trotting up to the officers being extremely friendly.

I have dug through over 7,000+ arrest records in the state of North Carolina over the past 2 weeks. What I found was so shocking, I had a hard time believing it myself... It appears major fraud is taking place in arrest records where Black offenders are labelled White. I didn't come across this once or twice. It appears that a few HUNDRED Black offenders are being labelled as White. The option to pick "BLACK" exists and is used frequently in arrest records... ...but it seems they are purposely choosing the label of "WHITE AFRICAN" or "WHITE CAUCASIAN" to identify someone who is clearly a "BLACK" person. This is massive fraud.

🚨#BREAKING: Outrage is erupting after a Colorado dad who helped his son become the YOUNGEST PERSON EVER to reach the top of Yosemite’s El Capitan... ...was REPORTED TO CHILD PROTECTIVE SERVICES for letting him do it. Yes, you read that right. His name is Joe Evermore, his son is Joey “Danger” Evermore. Yes, Danger is his real middle name 🤣 Joey started the climb at 6 years old and he turned 7 HALFWAY UP THE WALL. On May 20th, after FIVE DAYS on a 3,000-foot granite face, he reached the summit. His older brothers, Sam and Sylvan, had both done it at 8, Joey beat them both. By the way... this was not a stunt thrown together over a weekend, it was a rope ascent with a full support team. Joe says his son was anchored to the wall the entire way, and that he managed the risks with a team, preparation, and training. In his dad’s words: “In a way he’s the least afraid that we’ve ever seen.” After the story went global, the comments turned ugly. Joe says people told him his kids would be better off in FOSTER CARE... and then came the CPS reports. Not one. MULTIPLE. Joe says the family then got a LETTER from Child Protective Services. CPS had reviewed the complaints... and DECLINED to pursue them (the right move) Joe’s words: “they just don’t understand what’s dangerous and what’s not dangerous.” So true... people let their kids have live access to anything and everything on the internet, but as soon as they see a brave kid doing something OUTSIDE, people lose their minds. Childhood is being slowly destroyed by people who don't know what danger really is. This man did nothing wrong and that boy is a LEGEND!!!!

🚨#BREAKING: Outrage is erupting in Baltimore after a mother was CHARGED in the DE*TH of her own 2-month-old baby, who was STARVED, BEATEN, DEHYDRATED, and had BLEEDING IN HIS BRAIN... ...and she was LET OUT ON BOND in just 3 DAYS!!! His name was Malik Woodard, he lived 83 days. Medical records show that in those 83 days, he gained just 50 GRAMS. That’s less than TWO OUNCES, for his whole life. On August 31st, 2025, around 11:30 in the morning, police were called to Loch Raven Boulevard and Gorsuch Avenue for a baby who wasn’t breathing. Firefighters did CPR. He didn't survive. According to charging documents, his great-grandmother heard him crying abnormally and struggling to breathe. She went to his mother. His mother ordered her grandmother to LEAVE THE ROOM. That mother is Taylor Williams. She’s 20 years old. Williams told investigators she stepped into the bathroom and came back to find her son unresponsive. Then the medical examiner ruled: -> Head trauma that caused BLEEDING IN HIS BRAIN. -> Severe dehydration. -> Malnutrition. That ruling didn’t reach detectives until June of this year... nearly TEN MONTHS later. She wasn’t arrested until October 5th... more than a YEAR afterwards BUT IT GETS WORSE. She was charged with first-degree child abuse resulting in de@th. In Maryland, that carries up to LIFE in prison, but guess what? Three days later, on Thursday, October 8th, she posted bond and she WENT HOME. Say his name. Malik Woodard. WHY IS SHE WALKING FREE????????? WE. DO. NOT. HAVE. TO. LIVE. LIKE. THIS.

🚨#BREAKING: Two teenager brothers are being hailed as HEROES after they DOVE INTO A RETENTION POND to RESCUE A GRANDMOTHER and a 2 and 5 year old from drowning!!! ...the 2 teens heard the splash, ran over, and pulled ALL THREE of them out ALIVE!!! The baby was still underwater in that stroller when they found him. He’s ALIVE today! ❤️ Their names are Maddox and Grant Larger. They’re brothers from Carmel, Indiana. Maddox is 15. Grant is 14. On Monday morning, around 11:15, Grant heard a splash. He looked down at the pond and saw them floating in the water. A grandmother, struggling, going under. Her 4-year-old grandbaby was strapped to her back. The stroller holding her 2-year-old had rolled into the pond and was partially SUBMERGED. Neither grandma nor the 4-year-old knew how to swim. Grant got on the phone with 911. Maddox, who swims for the Carmel Swim Club, jumped STRAIGHT IN. Together the brothers dragged grandma and the 4-year-old to dry land. But here’s the part that got me... Once everyone was out, Maddox realized the baby was STILL IN THE STROLLER. He unbuckled him, pulled him out, tipped him over to drain the water, and patted his back until the little baby coughed up the pond water... and started BREATHING again. By the time firefighters and police got there, both little kids were conscious. Carmel officials say there is no doubt these two boys SAVED THAT 2-YEAR-OLD’S LIFE. The fire department says they proved you don’t need a uniform or a badge to be a hero. And Grant? Humble as can be. “Anybody would’ve done what we did.” The city is honoring both brothers at the Carmel City Council meeting on November 16. FIFTEEN and FOURTEEN years old!!!!!! GOD BLESS Maddox and Grant Larger. THIS IS THE AMERICA I KNOW!!! 🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸

Please prepare yourself... I've cried a few times just writing this post. Sadly, a Golden Retriever dog has been found DE@D UNDERWATER with CINDER BLOCKS tied to its legs using the dog's OWN LEASH... Yes, someone tied a dog to concrete with its own leash, zip-tied it down, and sank it in the water. On Tuesday morning, October 13th, Ryan Young was coming back into the marina near Miami and he saw two little arms sticking up out of the water. Then he realized they were PAWS, he thought someone’s dog had fallen off a boat. Then he saw the rope and TWO cinder blocks. Young believes the dog fought to survive. He says its back legs looked torn and broken from the struggle. Marina staff pulled him out about 20 minutes later. Exactly ZERO arrests have been made for what happened to this dog. Zero charges. No answers on how he passed away, or how long he was down there. But someone walked this dog on that leash... then used it to do THIS. This is one of the most evil acts I've ever even HEARD of being committed. This person needs to go to prison for life. How the HELL can you do this to a GOLDEN RETRIEVER?!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
