    As a lot of you may know, Fox News is not a news channel in the least bit. It favors the far right and makes up stories and supposed "data" to support its hateful message. Please sign the petition to end Fox "News" once and for all.

    Calling all Latin teachers and students! Starting 2013-2014, the city of Fairfax will no longer fund the Latin program at Lanier Middle School and will replace it with another language. 8th graders seeking a language to take in middle school should be given the opportunity to choose Latin to form a foundation before high school and begin to learn essential language and literature skills.

  • Our right to elect our president
    Unfortunately, both parties; Republicans and Democrats have failed us since they have become pawns of special interests. They are no longer protecting the interests of American citizens because they are too busy protecting the interests of the corporations for the sake of power.The only man standing up in the 2012 presidential race to up-hold the constituation of the United States of America and protect American values and our civil liberties is Dr. Ron Paul. Dr. Ron Paul has been consistent in his views as they relate to civil liberties, economy and the foreign policy AND has never compromised on them for the sake of just winning an election. Therefore, it is our responsibility to elect men of honor like him. It is also clear that mega interest groups are as always spending millions of dollars to keep the status quo and silence people like Dr. Ron Paul. Our press, as usual is serving special interests again and the system has piled up obstacles and hurdles for people like Ron Paul. It is up to us now. We should all contact Dr. Ron Paul and request him to break with his party and stand as an independent candidate so that Americans can get an option to vote for him. http://www.ronpaul.com/ Respectfully Arshad Waheed

  • Say "No" to Columbine Movie
    The Network "Lifetime" is planning on Making a miniseries about the April 20th 1999 shooting in Littleton Co. There is no mention of any proceeds being directed at programs that address school violence. There has been no indication that people were actually consulted from the community. There is no indication that anyone has been contacted for likeness rights. How the network has gone about making this movie is questionable, which begs the question, "How tasteful is this movie going to be? WIll it be historically accurate or just a gore-fest?" "How distorted are they going to make the film to sell ad space?"

  • Assassination of a Whistleblower. Stop the Cover-Up by Ray Kelly and NYPD
    Sunny Sheu was a victim of mortgage fraud, who discovered that a NY Supreme Court Judge was complicit in the fraud that stole his home. Sunny was officially scheduled to testify at NY State Senate hearing on Judicial Corruption, but before he could testify, he was abducted by two NYPD detectives and threatened with death if he "went to the authorities" Sunny requested witness protection from the FBI and posted a video on Youtube predicting his murder by the judge and the NYPD. Days later, on June 26th 2010, Sunny was found bludgeoned to death on a dead end street in Flushing Queens. Hours after his death, the NYPD illegally removed his body and sent it to the Medical Examiner with a note saying he had dies of an "aneurysm" and that there was "no criminality" The Medical examiner disagreed and ruled the cause of death "Blunt force trauma to the Head with skull fractures and brain injuries." and the manner of death "undetermined", making a criminal investigation mandatory. There has been no investigation. The NYPD has violated NY State law by denying FOIL request for information regarding Sunny's death. The case is thoroughly detailed and documented at: www.sunnysheu.blogspot.com On May 18th, 2011, the Blackstar News sent a certified letter to NYPD Commissioner Ray Kelly, describing the case and demanding an investigation. Receipt of the letter was confirmed, but Kelly has not responded. If a whistle blower can be kidnapped, threatened by the NYPD, then murdered without an investigation, all New Yorkers are in dire jeopardy.

  • Senators, Reject Weakened House Version of STOCK Act
    The U.S. House of Representatives have recently passed a much weakened version of the STOCK Act legislation, which some representatives in the U.S. Senate find to be disappointing. We need to remind our House Representatives and Senate Representatives that the parts left out in the weakened STOCK Act need to be kept in the final bill.

  • Protect Women's Right to Contraception
    Currently, under the name of religious freedom, many Catholic run institutions like hospitals refuse to provide health insurance coverage for contraception for their women employees even if it is medically indicated for their health (even though 98% of Catholic Women have used contraception.) It is time for all women, including Catholic women, and the men who love them, to speak up and let their voices be heard about this issue.

  • Require labeling of GMO's
    Never has it been a more important time to petition our government to require full disclosure of genetically modified foods. Studies in lab rats have shown organ failure when they ingested Monsanto's new GMO corn. If we do nothing Monsanto will continue to pollute the very thing that is supposed to nourish us. . . our food. We have a right to know what is being sold as food.
