Today I read about the “skater bandit” that robbed another bank. The FBI has given this man the nickname “skater bandit”. Yesterday he robbed a bank in Del Mar. He also robbed a bank April 18, April28, May 5, and May8 the FBI said. The robber robbed the bank yesterday at about 1:30pm he had gave the teller a demand note and then left. He was last seen wearing a cap sunglasses jeans and a gray turtleneck.
Interesting facts- the FBI is offering a reward of 16,000 dollars that will lead to his conviction.
My Opinion- I think the guy probably had a reason to rob the bank he had CIRCUMSTANCES. They are trying to catch this guy and try to put him in a INSTITUTE so he can be REGULATED. I don’t think that this is that big of a crime.

According to the San Diego Union Tribune I read about a man from Lake Elsinore was arrested with guns in his car. The consequence is still unknown. A man with four unregistered machine guns and hundreds of rounds of ammunition in his car when he was arrested in Pacific Beach. The man is identified as Jason Hilliard of 36 years of age. Hilliard appeared in federal court Friday and is being currently held with out bail. His trial today will determine if he will be allowed to be bailed out of jail. Officers tried to pull him over after he was driving carelessly and found hundreds of ammunition among six fire arms. They also found duct tape, a large coat, and a ski mask. A subsequent search of his home were nine more guns and thousands rounds of ammunition, a silencer and two pipe bombs. He has no criminal record so authorities are trying to figure out the motive for his collection of arsenal. the institute for alcohol, tobacco, firearms, and explosives is investigating the case. their job is to regulate the arms in the country.

Today in the news I read about a shake up in Afghanistan. Today the U.S. government has announced that their will be a change in command in Afghanistan. Gen. David McKiernan will be relived of power and Lt. Gen. Stanley McChrystal will be the head of operations in Afghanistan. Defense Secretary Robert Gates said “Fresh eyes were needed and a new approach was in the best interest”. This decision comes after the war in Afghanistan has taken a turn for the worst with an increasingly strong Taliban. Defense officials say that Gen. Mckeirnan took a to conventional approach to the war in Afghanistan. Lt Gen. McChrystal was in command of the forces that captured Sudam Hussein. He was also in command of the Unit that tracked and killed Abu Musab Al-zuarqwi. Hopefully this change in command can topple the growing Taliban in Afghanistan. The General is going to institute a new aggressive policy in Afghanistan and regulate troop movement.

In today’s paper I read bout how the court system is harshly REGULATING the number of hearings a potentially innocent man has pleaded for. The long-running drama of death-row inmate Kevin Cooper took an unusual turn yesterday as federal appeals made it clear that the state of California might execute an innocent man, and didn’t fail to criticize how a hearing on his case was handled by a federal judge in San Diego. Despite Cooper’s latest bid to overturn the COSEQUENCES he has received because of his murder convictions, the majority of the judged declined to grant him a new hearing and he edged closer to exhausting his appeals. It is said that Copper will ask the United States Supreme Court to take the case. Cooper has been on death row since May 1985. he was convicted of hacking to death Douglas and Peggy Ryen, their 10-year-old daughter, Jessica, and 11-year-old house guest Chris Hughes in Chino Hills. Despite Cooper’s consistent claims of innocence, he has been held in correctional INSTITUTES since 1985. He has also claimed tests would show the hairs, found in the hands of one of the victims, belonged to someone other than him or the victims. More over, he said the tests on blood stains on a T-shirt would reveal the presence of a chemical preservative and back up his claim that police planted his blood on the garment. In my opinion, I think that it is wrong the judges have declined his bid for yet another hearing. He has supplied sufficient evidence that contradict his being guilty in the first place. I do not understand how the courts can just turn their back on the new evidence that shows the presence of the chemical preservative that Cooper insisted was the case in the first place. True justice has not been served until they re-hear Kevin Cooper and find without a doubt whether or not he is indeed guilty.

Today in the San Diego Union Tribune I read about the SWINE flu, in Mexico schools welcomed millions of children back to school yesterday with masks, thermometers and globs of hand sanitizer, as scientists estimated the new strain of swine flu could have sickened 23,000 people before anyone realized it was an epidemic. At least 61 people have been killed by swine flu around the world, and the world health organization has confirmed 4,800 cases. This swine flu was scary it had everyone trippin’ out especially in wal-mart for some weird reason, people felt INSATUTIONALIZED luckily it got REGULATED because it was getting pretty wild.
