Nearly 1,200 people have starved to death in NHS hospitals because 'nurses are too busy to feed patients'
For every patient who dies from malnutrition, four more have dehydration mentioned on their death certificate
In 2011, 43 patients starved to death and 291 died in a state of severe malnutrition Department of Health branded the figures 'unacceptable' and said the number of unannounced inspections will increase
Yeah, THAT'S going to fix it.
Yeah, WE can't be trusted to have guns...
The U.S. Park Police has lost track of thousands of handguns, rifles and machine guns in what a government watchdog agency concluded is the latest example of mismanagement on a police force trusted to protect millions of visitors to the city’s iconic monuments.
...
In the latest report, investigators tried to examine allegations that the Park Police could not account for a cache of military-style rifles, that inventories were incomplete and that some guns had been taken by officers for personal use. But the task was difficult, according to the report, because staff from the chief down to officers “had no clear idea of how many weapons they maintained due to incomplete and poorly managed inventory controls.”
They want YOU to go to jail if you don't report a missing/stolen gun fast enough...
Park Police guns turned up in odd places. In 2011, former police chief Robert Langston, who retired in 2001, showed up at a firearms qualification course for former law enforcement officers, according to the report. Running the course was a former Park Police officer who had been a member of the department’s special weapons and tactics team. He also was an inspector general in the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development.
The official noticed that Langston’s handgun belonged to the Park Police, the report said. He seized the weapon and returned it to the agency. Current Park Police officials could not explain how the former chief kept his gun, which was “unaccounted for on inventories that followed his retirement,” according to the report.
Speaking of LE and firearms,
RCMP revealed Thursday that officers have seized a “substantial amount” of firearms from homes in the evacuated town of High River.
“We just want to make sure that all of those things are in a spot that we control, simply because of what they are,” said Sgt. Brian Topham.
And how did they seize them?
He did confirm that officer relied on forced entry to get into numerous houses during the early stages of the flood because of an “urgent need”, said Topham.
"It was an emergency! We HAD to violate their home and take their property!"
Police are no longer forcing themselves into homes and the residences that were forced open will be secured, he said.
WILL be. Yeah. And just like it came to in New Orleans,
The guns will be returned to owners after residents are allowed back in town and they provide proof of ownership, Topham added.
And if it's something inherited and you don't have a friggin' receipt, well, "You're out of luck." I'm sure.
Stolen from the High Road: "Heidi Yewman purchases bullets. Gives up!"
Besides the general "You've got no damned business with this information" aspect, this fails the Jews in the Attic test.
The results shocked him.
The paperback-size device, installed on the outside of police cars, can log thousands of license plates in an eight-hour patrol shift. Katz-Lacabe said it had photographed his two cars on 112 occasions, including one image from 2009 that shows him and his daughters stepping out of his Toyota Prius in their driveway.
That photograph, Katz-Lacabe said, made him “frightened and concerned about the magnitude of police surveillance and data collection.” The single patrol car in San Leandro equipped with a plate reader had logged his car once a week on average, photographing his license plate and documenting the time and location.
At a rapid pace, and mostly hidden from the public, police agencies throughout California have been collecting millions of records on drivers and feeding them to intelligence fusion centers operated by local, state and federal law enforcement.
"Oh, it's much more efficient at finding stolen cars!" That's nice; so why the hell are you keeping records of cars that AREN'T stolen? Where they've been and so forth?
If you haven't been following the Zimmerman trial, I'd suggest going to Legal Insurrection and just starting down the page. Which will include this from today:

Add up all the lies from the media, and the lies and lawbreaking by the prosecutors, there really are people who belong in jail over this; Zimmerman just isn't one of them.
