Credits and Thank Yous -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- ============== | 1. Introduction | ============== I began this guide several years ago to address common reoccurring malware issues found on the Tech Support board here on GameFAQs. Within the first three years of the guides original publication, I posted three separate versions, each highlighting new information. Regrettably, the guide has not been altered since 2006 and has been fairly out of date for quite some time. After a recent bout of malware removal of my own, I was persuaded to give this a complete overhaul. Certainly this update has been long overdue, but fear not, for every section of this guide has been rewritten and updated to meet current standards. There has been a multitude of new anti-malware programs released since 2006 and I have included a full user guide for each. Before I begin I would like to offer a sincere thank you to all those who have supported the previous versions of this guide. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- | |
What is a browser cookie? Cookies are small bits of data that are stored on your computer as you access a website for the first time. When the site is revisited, the cookies will automatically load previous data to allow the page to load faster. A system will store portions of every website visited, and build up a large depository of artifacts in a temporary storage folder. Malware can monitor a browser's cookies to collect personal information. It is in the interest of both the users protection and the systems overall cleanliness that cookies be cleared on a regular basis. What are tracking cookies? Tracking cookies are a type of malware that will save data from websites and relay this information to third parties. Tracking cookies effectively allow advertising companies to track a users browsing history. As such, spyware and adware will often make use of tracking cookies to tailor advertisements to a users search queries. What is my hosts file? The hosts file is a list of hostsnames mapped to IP addresses. Malware will often target the hosts file to redirect internet usage to specified sites. For example, certain types of viruses may alter the hosts file in such a way that blocks the user from accessing any website related to anti-virus or computer security. Another example would be adware altering the hosts file to redirect common search terms to advertising websites. What is the Windows registry? The registry is essentially the brain of every operating system. It stores a complete database of all settings and options on the system for all applications. The registry is broken down into several hives, or clusters, of values. Malware will act to edit the registry and attach itself to various values. Anti-malware programs are designed to automatically clean the registry of infected files so that the user does not have to. The registry can be edited by opening RegEdit from Start > Run > RegEdit, but should not be edited by anyone with less than expert working knowledge. How did I get infected? Malware is an increasingly persistent threat to internet users. In the early stages of the internet, most malware was confined to email viruses that required a user to physically open the attached program. Today, however, malware can penetrate even the most protected systems through a wide array of attack mechanisms. Fortunately with the right protection and careful usage, most malware can be avoided or removed without much issue. The most common forms of malware are found in the following instances: - Adult sites - Keygen or game crack websites - Cracked or unlicensed software - P2P clients including Limewire, Kazaa, or iMesh - Free screensaver websites - Freeware programs - Bogus email scams How can I rid my system of malware problems? Fortunately modern technology has given us a bevy of easy to use anti-malware programs that will automatically clean and protect us from common threats. The popular anti-malware programs will purge your computer of the majority of infections. However, persistent or specific infections may require additional research and specially developed removal tools. But do not fret, for even the most serious infections will rarely require you to manually edit the registry, load up DOS, or root around through system files. Finding the right removal tool will be the most important part of any system clean up. Letting the program work will be the easiest. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- | |
==================== | 3. Malware Prevention | ==================== Before we set about cleaning all forms of malware on your system, it will be best to set up prevention mechanisms to block any reinfection. Set Hosts File to Read Only http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hosts_file#Content_and_location Navigate to your systems hosts file (depending on your operating system), right click it and select Properties. In the box that appears, select the Read Only box and click OK. Your hosts file can now no longer be tampered with by malware. Internet Explorer Many people are unaware of these simple but effective steps found within the Internet Explorer settings that help cut down on malicious activity. Disable ActiveX Open IE and select Tools from the menu. Click on Internet Options, select the Security tab, and click the Default Level button to reset any changes that may have been made. Now, click the Custom Level button and scroll to the ActiveX area. Ensure the following changes are made: 1. Download Signed ActiveX Controls: Prompt 2. Download Unsigned ActiveX Controls: Disable 3. Initialize ActiveX Controls Marked Not Safe: Disable Adjust Cookie Settings Open IE and select Tools from the menu. Click on Internet Options, select the Privacy tab, and then move the slider to Low or Medium. Clear Your Cookies Open IE and select Tools from the menu. From here, click the Delete Cookies button. Clear your cookies at least once a month to reduce adware and to save harddrive space. Check for Updates Open IE and select Tools from the menu. Click on Windows Updates and run the scan. Keep your system up to date to avoid security exploits. Firefox Mozilla Firefox is an alternative web browser that offers a multitude of security and customization options. Consider switching from IE if you have not already. Block Popups Open Firefox and select Tools from the menu. Click Options and navigate to the Content tab. Ensure block pop ups is checked. Adjust Security Settings Open Firefox and select Tools from the menu. Click Options and navigate to the Security tab. Ensure the following are checked: - Warn me when sites try to install addons - Block reported attack sites - Block reported web forgeries Disable Java Open Firefox and select Tools from the menu. Click Options and navigate to the Content tab. Uncheck the Enable Java box. Install Noscript Add-on https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/722/ This add-on will automatically block all scripts while browsing unless the site is added to the exceptions list. To add an exception, load the page in question (for example your home-banking login screen), and click the small S logo on the Firefox toolbar in the lower right (by default). Then, simply click allow xxxxxx.com. Alternatively, you can elect to temporarily allow a website if you feel you do not need to offer permanent access. Install Adblock Plus http://adblockplus.org/ In todays modern technological world, most websites depend largely on advertisement revenue. I empathize with these business models and am generally not annoyed by ads, especially if they help keep my favorite sites afloat. Unfortunately advertisements are becoming increasingly dangerous and packed with browser security exploits to force a companys own adware onto your system. Though I fully support the revenue model of advertising, no websites profitability should ever jeopardize your own systems security. Adblock Plus is a simple browser add-on that blocks the vast majority of known malware advertising domains. The added bonus is cleaner looking websites. | |
Spybot Search and Destroy http://www.safer-networking.org/en/download/ Immunization Once downloaded and installed, click the Updates button on the left menu. Spybot will automatically search for any updates. Check any available updates and download them immediately. Be sure to check for new updates often. Close all web browsers and click Immunize on the left menu. Run a scan for any unblocked sites, and select Immunize once the scan is complete. Be sure to run the Immunization tool every time you download new updates in order to add new sites to the block list. Resident TeaTimer & SDHelper Spybot offers two full-time protection monitors to defend your system. Resident TeaTimer monitors all processes and applications to detect malicious activity, while SDHelper disables malicious downloads when running IE. If you did not elect to install either when first installing Spybot, click the Tools menu on the sidebar and navigate to the Resident icon. Ensure both the Resident SDHelper and Resident TeaTimer boxes are checked, then exit the program and restart your system. Be forewarned that Resident TeaTimer can be quite a resource hog. If you have a lower end system, you may need to disable this program. If possible, however, it is advised to keep it on. Spyware Guard http://www.javacoolsoftware.com/spywareguard.html This small program will provide real time spyware and adware protection. Once downloaded and installed, open the program and run the LiveUpdate to ensure all new updates are installed. Next, open the Options menu from the side and enable all three protection options. Click Save Settings near the top. Select the Download Protection tab and enable the preference of your choice. Click save, then close the window without exiting the program. Other Active Monitors Note that several free removal tools (AdAware, MalwareBytes, SUPERAntiSpyware) do have active monitoring components. However, these require you to register the product and are not free. While not discouraged, these are not necessarily required either. Depending on your comfort level or risk assessment, you may opt to buy the Pro versions of one or more of the aforementioned tools. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- | |
============================== | 4. Malware Detection and Removal | ============================== Now that you have your prevention programs up and running, its time to run several scans and remove any malware infections from your system. Spybot Search and Destroy http://www.safer-networking.org/en/download/ Open Spybot and select Advanced Mode under the Mode tab on the top menu. On the side bar, click the Settings tab and open the File Sets menu. Ensure everything here is checked. Now click the "Settings" button under the Settings tab and select Time Critical under the Scan Priority section to achieve the fastest possible scan. For the most efficient removal, you will need to run Spybot on your systems next start before any other processes are loaded. Under the Settings menu, scroll to the System Start section and select the Run program once at next system startup option. Ensure the following adjustments are made: - Run check on program start: Enabled - Fix all problems on program start: Enabled - Close program if everythings OK: Enabled Now, restart your system and allow the scan to run. As the Spybot database grows, the time per scan will continue to increase. On older machines, a full scan may take up to an hour. If you wish to run a scan without restarting, simply click the Check for Problems button on the main screen. Be forewarned that if spyware is active on your system, Spybot will prompt for a rescan on the next system restart. Malwarebytes Anti-Malware http://www.malwarebytes.org/mbam-download.php Once installed, the first priority is to rename the Malwarebytes shortcut, as some advanced forms of malware will automatically disable any Malwarebytes Anti-Malware process from loading. A simple rename to mb should do the trick and allow you to run it under any circumstances. In extreme cases, do not be afraid to rename it a random string of numbers. Before running a system scan, ensure that the most up-to-date database is loaded by selecting the Update tab on the main screen and click Check for Updates. MBAM databases are updated multiple times a day, so be sure to check for updates every time you load the program. Navigate to the Settings tab on the main screen and ensure the following changes are made: - Automatically save log file after scan: Enabled Under the Scanner Settings tab, ensure all options are enabled. To run the scan, navigate to the Scanner tab on the main screen and select either Quick or Full Scan. Full scans are generally not necessary unless your system is badly corrupted. A quick scan will take roughly 30 minutes to complete, while a full scan can take several hours, depending on the size of the drive and the amount of space used. | |
Ad-Aware Free http://www.lavasoft.de/software/adaware/ Ad-Aware Free simplifies the scanning process from previous versions of the utility. First and foremost, ensure your version is updated to the most recent database by clicking the Web Update icon on the main screen. Next, switch to Advanced Mode by clicking the small toggle switch in the bottom left corner. To run a scan, click the Scan System button in the center of the main screen. You will want to run a full scan here, as the smart scan skips important areas of your system. Once Full Scan is selected, simply hit the Scan Now button. Once the scan is complete, remove any infections found. Quarantining infections may not kill their payload, so it is best to delete them entirely. Check your Quarantine list periodically to ensure all threats have been removed. You may wish to remove the Ad-Aware Windows shell extension on right-click menus. To do this, select Settings on the main screen and navigate to the Customize tab. Deselect the Add Ad-Aware to Windows right-click menu option and click OK. You may need to restart for this change to take effect. SUPERAntiSpyware http://www.superantispyware.com/download.html Less shady than the name implies, SUPERAntiSpyware is actually an excellent malware removal tool for detecting relatively unknown infections. Prior to scanning, ensure you have the latest database by clicking Check for Updates. Scan settings are optimal by default, so there is no need to adjust anything. Simply click Scan Your Computer and select your scan type. Quick scans will generally be enough to detect rogue malware, though extreme cases may require a full system scan. Windows Defender http://www.microsoft.com/athome/security/spyware/software/default.mspx Microsofts own spyware prevention and detection tool is a simple install and can be found on the Control Panel menu. Once installed, open it and click the Tools button on the top menu. Open the Options menu. From here, you can set Windows Defender to run on a weekly or daily schedule. I would suggest setting it to run at least once a week during the night so it won't bother your system performance. Check both boxes related to updates under the automatic scan setup. Under the Default Actions section, set all three items to Remove. To run a manual scan, click the scan button and select the scan type. Windows Defender is useful for rooting out lesser known pests that may be overlooked by the more common scanners. | |
HijackThis http://www.majorgeeks.com/download3155.html HijackThis can be used to pinpoint specific infections, but is not necessarily the best tool for overall system health. Before running a scan, you will want to rename the HijackThis shortcut, as advanced forms of malware will automatically disable any HijackThis process from loading. Renaming it to simply hjt should allow it to work, but in extreme cases, do not be afraid to rename it a random string of numbers. Each line in the HijackThis log starts with a section reference. The sections references help categorize the results. The following are the descriptions for each section: R0, R1, R2, R3 - Internet Explorer Start/Search pages URLs F0, F1, F2,F3 - Auto loading programs N1, N2, N3, N4 - Netscape/Mozilla Start/Search pages URLs O1 - Hosts file redirection O2 - Browser Helper Objects O3 - Internet Explorer toolbars O4 - Auto loading programs from Registry O5 - IE Options icon not visible in Control Panel O6 - IE Options access restricted by Administrator O7 - Regedit access restricted by Administrator O8 - Extra items in IE right O9 - Extra buttons on main IE button toolbar, or extra items in IE 'Tools' menu O10 - Winsock hijacker O11 - Extra group in IE 'Advanced Options' window O12 - IE plugins O13 - IE Default Prefix hijack O14 - 'Reset Web Settings' hijack O15 - Unwanted site in Trusted Zone O16 - ActiveX Objects (aka Downloaded Program Files) O17 - Lop.com/Domain Hijackers O18 - Extra protocols and protocol hijackers O19 - User style sheet hijack O20 - AppInit_DLLs Registry value Autorun O21 - ShellServiceObjectDelayLoad O22 - SharedTaskScheduler O23 - Windows XP/NT/2000 Services Use the following link and paste your logfile into the text box: http://www.hijackthis.de/index.php This will give you a list of which processes are dangerous and should be removed. If a process is neutral or mixed, check to see if you can identify the process. If not, research the process before removing it completely. If you have accidentally removed an important process, HJT has a recovery feature built in. Simply click the Config tab on the main screen and navigate to the Backups box. Click the process you removed and select Restore. You may need to restart your system for these changes to take effect. Also note that every tech support board worth its weight will ask you for your HJT log. If you plan on seeking outside help for your malware troubles, keep your HJT log nearby. | |
ComboFix http://download.bleepingcomputer.com/sUBs/ComboFix.exe ComboFix is a relatively simple tool to use but requires patience and in some cases outside help to be completely effective. Prior to scanning ensure your virus protection is off to prevent processor clashes. To run ComboFix, simply download the .exe from the link above and double click the file. You well see an intro screen to which you should select Yes to run. At this point, ComboFix will alert you if you have any anti-virus programs running. It is crucial that these be off during the scan. From here, ComboFix will create a restore point, backup your registry, and check that you have Windows Recovery Console installed. If you do not, it will download and install it automatically before continuing the scan. It will first check for rootkit activity. If detected, it will require you to restart your system. ComboFix will resume the scan once Windows loads. From here it will run through a series of 50 scan stages that may take up to an hour to complete. During this time you may see your desktop disappear or your clock settings change. This is normal and will be restored at the end of the scan. Once all 50 stages are complete, ComboFix will state it is generating a logfile. This process takes time, as the log is quite large. Let it work. You will know the scan is complete when the logfile opens in a separate notepad window. This logfile can be found by default under C:\ComboFix.txt. To uninstall ComboFix, click Start, then Run, and type exactly ComboFix /Uninstall without the quotes. Note the space between ComboFix and /Uninstall. This process will take a few moments; you will see a notification box stating it has been successfully removed. The ComboFix.exe on your desktop should now be gone. Interpreting the ComboFix log is crucial. While ComboFix can and will remove a boatload of malware infections, it is just as important to have a qualified technician review your log for other infections. Specifically, the internal GMER rootkit scan will show results towards the end of the logfile if rootkit activity is detected and not removed. See the Seeking Outside Help section for more information on assessing your ComboFix logfile. Remove Old System Restore Points and Create a New One If at this point in the process you have ran a multitude of scans and have zapped a handful of malware infections, it is best to now remove your old system restore points and create a clean one. This is important because old system restore files can, and most likely will, harbor the removed malware. If you were to restore to one of these points you may risk reinfecting your system and in some cases worsen the problem. If your scanning process netted very few or minor malware instances, this step is probably not necessary. First, click Start > Control Panel and switch to classic view. Double click the System icon and navigate to the System Restore tab. On this menu, check the box next to Turn off System Restore and click OK. This will remove all old restore points. Once finished, double click the System icon again and uncheck the Turn off System Restore box. Now is a good time to adjust your disk space usage. 3% is generally enough to offer ample restore points, but if you feel comfortable with more feel free to adjust this. Now it is time to create a new system restore point. Click Start > All Programs > Accessories > System Tools > System Restore. From here, simply select Create a restore point from the menu, rename it Malware Scan or something similar, and click create. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |

EDL's Simon Scott threatens George Galloway
|We are visiting some old territory today. EDL Simon Scott was featured in Derek Fender Corner last September for claiming he was going to steal a pig, put it on a leash and parade it in front of a Mosque. Scott is now dating Plymouth Ebay fraudster Hayley Wells.
Scott, from Ossett, West Yorkshire is unsurpisingly a massive racist. As well as the EDL, he is involved in far right extremists groups like the National Front and Combat 18. He is also in charge of the EDL's Ossett Division.
When he is not spouting his race hate on Facebook, he is making online threats towards George Galloway.
He also explains how he wants to rip the skin from Muslims and pour salt on the wounds and how he would set fire to a 'Paki' if one were to try and sit next to him on a bus.
Whilst the idiocy of his pig plan was rather amusing, his postings since has taken a more sinister twist as he makes endless threats against the Muslim community . These screenshots are all taken in the last month. We have not dug back any further. We have however reported his posts to West Yorkshire Police.
Scott explains how he dreams about 'kicking the shit out of pakis' when he goes to sleep
Scott is refused a crisis loan. He is skint after visiting Wells in Plymouth last week. The fact that he does not qualify is apparently the fault of the Asian man dealing with it. Scott makes some thinly veiled threats towards him and refers to him as a 'paki twat'. He then refers to Asians as 'animals'
The first thing on his mind in the morning is hate and violence.
And he has a new chant which targets all Asians.
Simon is not too bright, he thinks that Muslims have a flag and he wants to burn it
And another hate filled rant threatening the Muslim community.
Scott wants to peel back the skin of Muslims, then throw salt on the wounds
Even taking a long coach trip to see Wells in Plymouth sets him off on a hate rant where he envisages throwing petrol over a Muslim and burning one if he is seated next to one.
Scott is rather cozy with right wing extremists, the National Front.
Scott's EDL credentials
When he tries to claim he is not EDL and the EDL will claim he is not EDL, the tattoo on the back of his neck dispels that myth.
And Scott's Combat 18 credentials
When racists get outed on EDL News they usually panic and delete their profile and posts. However, nothing actually gets deleted from Facebook servers so here is his profile ID https://www.facebook.com/#!/scotty7572
Anyone who wants this racist and violent filth removing from Facebook and the perpetrator removing from decent society is urged to report it to the Met Police's online hate crime page. The Met Police will pass this onto West Yorkshire Police. Click here.
If Mr Galloway would like the screen shots of the threats we are happy to pass them onto him.

I received my new 20g, white gold ball nose screw sometime last week. It is the best piece of nostril jewelry that I have purchased. I have probably spent about $300 in the past trying to find a nose screw that I fell in love with but also that body wouldn't reject. You guys did it! The ball is just the right size, plain yet elegant. And no red sore nose! I can't even feel that I have a nose ring in at all! I know that I will be back to buy more in the near future. I was pretty close to letting my piercing close up because it hurt so bad with jewelry I had bought other places.

"Overpriced and under delivered. Smell of recently done (poor) paint job still lingered. Dining room cold, food cold, atmosphere cold. Pianist gave the only decent performance of the evening. Such a shame."
"Lunchtime dim sum are the speciality but the main Cantonese menu is pretty good too. We feasted on huge meaty salt & pepper spare ribs, scallop dumplings, spring rolls, crispy deep fried chicken, kung po prawns and vermicalli Singapore style. It was too much for two of us and required a doggy bag. This restaurant does have its ups and downs but is definitely on an up the moment. Everything was well up to standard and a 'noodle' menu has been added though many of the dishes on it were available anyway. Not quite such good value (there's not as much left over for the doggy bag!!) as the Ocean Treasure in Middleton but it's just a little bit nearer home. Probably the best Hong Kong style eating house in the city centre."

Techno Animal is an industrial hip hop duo formed in 1990 in London, England by British composers and musicians Justin Broadrick and Kevin Martin. The name addresses the concept of a technological animal.[1]
Kevin Martin had already formed the industrial metal group God in 1987. Justin Broadrick had founded Godflesh in 1988, recorded with Napalm Death and would soon join God alongside Martin.[2] The Techno Animal project came to fruition in 1990, arising from the musicians' shared interest in studio exploration.[1] The intent was to restrict the project to the studio and use sampling to develop the music, with no intent to perform the material live.[3]
Techno Animal's debut album Ghosts was released in 1991. In his review of the album, English music critic Simon Reynolds compared the music to that of other sample-based acts such as Einstürzende Neubauten, Die Krupps and 23 Skidoo.[4]
Notably, Techno Animal's music was an important source of inspiration for electronic music musician Kid606, with their debut album Ghosts being particularly influential to him. "It was one of the first experimental electronic records I had ever heard," he said, "Kevin Martin and Justin Broadrick were humongous influences on me from early on."[5]

The Amazing Spider-Man(2012)Teenage social outcast Peter Parker spends his days trying to unravel the mystery of his own past and winning the heart of his high school crush, Gwen Stacy. Peter discovers a mysterious briefcase belonging to his father, who abandoned him when he was a child, which leads him to his dad's former partner, Dr. Curtis Connors. The discovery of his father's secret will ultimately shape his destiny of becoming "Spider-Man" and brings him face to face with Connors, who becomes the vicious and vengeful Lizard. For more about The Amazing Spider-Man and the The Amazing Spider-Man Blu-ray release, see the The Amazing Spider-Man Blu-ray Review published by Martin Liebman on June 3, 2013 where this Blu-ray release scored 4.0 out of 5. Starring: Andrew Garfield, Emma Stone, Rhys Ifans, Sally Field, Martin Sheen, Denis Leary Director: Marc Webb » See full cast & crew The Amazing Spider-Man Blu-ray, Video QualitySony's commitment to releasing the finest Blu-ray products is evident with every spin of a Sony-branded disc. The consistency of product -- from the latest blockbusters to the most cherished classic titles from years gone by -- is arguably tops in the entire industry, and why shouldn't it be; Sony was a lead Blu-ray design and advocacy outfit, its PlayStation 3 console offered disc playback and instant wide format adoption, and the first wave of titles released back in 2006 bore the Sony label on the spine. Since then, and through a few growing pains and spurts -- a bloody format war, a misstep or two, the transition from Dolby TrueHD to DTS-HD Master Audio -- the studio has emerged as the most trustworthy in the industry when it comes to its Blu-ray product. When it says Sony, chances are extremely high that the movie is going to look (and sound) about as good as the format allows. Now, Sony is recalling the days of its "Superbit" DVD releases with the emergence of "Mastered in 4K" (*) Blu-ray discs. The initial wave consists of a handful of films, all of which have enjoyed previous, and largely very high quality, Blu-ray transfers. The new transfers are sourced from 4K masters but here's where the giant asterisk comes in: they're then downscaled to standard Blu-ray 1080p resolution. That means buyers can enjoy them on their regular old Blu-ray players and their regular old HDTVs -- no fancy new hardware required. The downside is that viewers aren't really seeing the material in 4K; even those who shell out the large sum of cash for a new 4K TV will be treated only to an upscaled presentation, much the same way today's regular old TV/playback 1080p device combos upscale standard definition DVDs. Watching the "Mastered in 4K" transfer in 1080p does yield some benefits over the standard 1080p Blu-ray releases, even if it's not a true 4K experience. The discs take advantage of a significantly higher bitrate than regular old Blu-ray discs, meaning more muscle to produce the finest picture quality, revealing superior details and showcasing that perfect cinematic, pleasing grain texturing for pictures photographed on film and more accuracy for those photographed in the wholly digital realm. "Mastered in 4K" discs also promise superior color balance and accuracy, reproducing a more faithful-to-the-source palette that will reveal the sort of natural shading and subtle nuance even the best of 1080p Blu-ray cannot match. More, Sony promises enhanced viewing on its own line of 4K TVs thanks to a proprietary upscaling algorithm that's designed to squeeze the most out of the "Mastered in 4K" line of Sony discs, above and beyond what any competitor's display can offer. Makes sense considering some branch of Sony is at work along every step of the process. Unfortunately, one of Sony's shiny new 4K televisions was not available for review purposes, but suffice it to say that either of the launch displays -- the 55" and 65" XBR-labeled sets -- will undoubtedly offer the best consumer viewing picture to date, whether joined with a Sony "Mastered in 4K" disc or a regular old Blu-ray from any studio. Here's a rather unique challenge for the processing power of "Mastered in 4K" discs. The Amazing Spider-Man was released to Blu-ray not all that long ago -- give or take around seven months at time of publication -- to rave reviews for its digital picture quality. It's a rather dark film but it sure looks fantastic for digital, yielding remarkable details both real and computer generated after the fact, from basic skin to digital hides, from regular clothes to Spider-Man's complexly textured costume. Sony's "Mastered in 4K" release takes the home video picture quality to another level, albeit a level that's not that much higher than the original release. In essence, most all of the observations from the standard 2D release carry over here. Details remain fantastic, colors brilliant in context of the film's darker tone, black levels amazing, and so on and so forth. The "Mastered in 4K" release, however, clearly ups the sharpness a bit. It's not so much sharper as to really make it worth the upgrade, but it's rather easy to see the uptick, both in-motion on the monitor and when comparing screen grabs, both at casual distance and up-close-and-personal. On the other hand, colors don't seem quite so noticeably bolder or richer, but again that's comparing them on the same non-Ultra 4K 1080p monitor; chances are Sony's television will squeeze out a little more nuanced precision and range from the palette. Black levels remain great, too, and of course the "4K" presentation is absolutely clean with no obvious banding, blockiness, or other uglies. It's a surprise to see it a fair bit sharper than the original, but even considering the improvement it'll difficult to lay down the cash for this release without also plopping down the Benjamins for one of Sony's new TVs, too. All screenshots have been sourced from the "Mastered in 4K" Blu-ray disc and have been selected to approximate those found in the review of the old 2D release. The Amazing Spider-Man Blu-ray, Audio QualityThe Amazing Spider-Man's DTS-HD MA 5.1 lossless soundtrack, the same, it seems, as accompanied the previous release, is every bit the sort of thrilling Superhero movie sound experience listeners demand. The track places precision elements all over the stage, creating a seamless and real-world sound environment with perfect clarity. From small effects like a swinging, squeaky door to drenching rains and booming thunder, the track offers every element with the sort of natural reproduction reserved for the best of the best high definition tracks. More impressive is the seamless sense of space; Sony's soundtrack paints a vivid sonic picture of every environment, completely immersing listeners into the school hallway, the Oscorp labs, and the busy city streets. Directional effects move seamlessly from one channel to the next, and precision sound placement anywhere in the stage is amongst this track's specialties. Music plays with a faultless tone, reproducing James Horner's high quality score with the sort of lifelike realism that defines lossless audio at its best. Action scenes are powerful and incorporate the best elements described above. Sound swooshes about the listening area and does so seamlessly. Various action effects are aggressive and clear, precisely placed and naturally immersive. Bass is potent and hits hard but not so hard as to distract. Instead, the low end is a completing element that brings real life and heft to the proceedings. Dialogue is firm and absolutely clear, remaining focused in the middle except as dictated by environment. This is a stellar soundtrack. That should come as no surprise given all the factors -- big blockbuster new release, Sony title -- but it's still a pleasure to hear from start to finish. The Amazing Spider-Man: Other Editions

Obama-Inspired Surrender of Black Leadership Makes Real Criminal Code Reform, Mass Incarceration Rollback Unlikely
by BAR managing editor Bruce A. Dixon
There's a House Judiciary Committee Task Force on Overcriminalization committed to combing through the federal code looking for ways to lock up fewer people. Should we get our hopes up, or get our fight for justice and rolling back the state on? Will the black misleadership class be any help? Probably not much. Should that stop us? Let's hope not.
Obama-Inspired Surrender of Black Leadership Makes Real Criminal Code Reform, Mass Incarceration Rollback Unlikely
by BAR managing editor Bruce A. Dixon
The common, and grossly misguided pillars of African American political "wisdom" since the beginning of Barack Obama's campaign for the White House in 2006 till the present day have been
shut down discussions of differences between African Americans, so white folks will think we're united;
don't press thorny and embarrassing political demands upon the First Black President, because he's the President Of All Americans, not just us;
close ranks around the First Black President to strengthen his hand against any and all critics.
Black America has deployed itself as a wall around Barack Obama. In practice however, the only thing we really protect President Obama and the class of black political misleaders over which he presides from is their duty to represent and do right by us.
There's no issue that uniquely the states black lives, black families and black communities like mass incarceration, the rise of the current prison state. Presidential candidate Barack Obama promised to address the racist laws that specified penalties for crack vs powdered cocaine at 100 to 1. But even with record black voter turnouts, a black Attorney General, 42 black members of Congress, Democratic majorities in the House and Senate, and a black president, the disparity was lightened to a mere 18 to 1, while not a single one of the tens or hundreds of thousands of unfair sentences being served were lightened by a single hour. Members of Congress floated the excuse that it was the best they could do against Republican intransigence, even though Republicans were in a minority when they did that deal. The fact is that from the president and his attorney general on down none of our black political leaders were willing to put their star power, their oratorical and deal-making skills, their political careers on the line. None were willing to handcuff themselves to the White House fence, or go on a hunger strike, or But opportunity is knocking again, this time in the form of a bipartisan House Judiciary Committee Task Force on Overcriminalization. Supposedly, they and their staffers will comb through the vast library of federal criminal code looking for ways to lock up fewer people.
There are lots of opinions in play. Right On Crime, an influential and well-funded conservative imagine tank headed by Newt Gingrich, believes the only thing really wrong with the prison state is how much it costs. This was the guiding spirit in similar efforts to address "overincarceration" in Texas and Georgia. Others, even other conservatives, like the Heritage Foundation, want to address the lack of any intent and "mistake of law" provisions in thousands of current federal criminal laws. Lack of these provisions means that people can and are found guilty of offenses they have no knowledge that they're committing and when defendants have no intention to violate any law.
There are and ought to be more progressive opinions in the mix too. The good people at places like the Sentencing Project and ACLU, and more like and unlike them, will weigh in as well. But these are organizations mainly of lawyers, good for producing briefing papers and giving respectful testimony at hearings. That won't do the trick. Pushing the rock of the prison state uphill will take a lot more, including some profound disrespect of the authority that led us where we are today. It would be a great good thing to see local and national organizations composed of and led by the formerly incarcerated and the families of the imprisoned involved in aggressive, insistent and impolite advocacy for justice.
My guess, however, is that the traditional civil rights leaders funded by corporations and feeling a lot more responsibility to the White House and their funders than they do to the people and communities affected by the prison state, will cut a series of bad, lazy deals. Their top priority will be not embarrassing the president by demanding that he act like a leader on this issue.
Rev. Al and Ben Jealous will probably put on a show of involving the White House or Attorney General, have a DC rally or two and strive mightily to divert the energies of those outraged at the prison state into voting Democrat in the 2014 elections. The problem is that we've already been voting the last three elections in record numbers without much effect on the incarceration rate. It's not that the current black leadership has forgotten the arts of creative confrontation and political organizing outside electoral mobilizations. Their predecessors stopped doing that stuff more than 4 decades ago, when many of them were toddlers or still unborn.
We'll have to learn the arts of creative confrontation all over again for this new era. And it IS a new era, one in which anybody who disrupts business as usual to achieve political ends may be labeled a "domestic terrorist."
We can confidently predict that the current black political class will do its best to let this opportunity to roll back the prison state slip through its fingers just like they did the crack-vs-powder cocaine disparity back back in 2009 and 2010. Surrender and accommodation, and taking credit for imaginary victories are in their DNA. But we hope their voices aren't the only ones heard in black America. We hope to use the existence of the House Judiciary Committee Task Force on Overcriminalization to breathe new life into honest explorations of how the prison state affects us all, and how we can challenge it.
Our black misleadership class can and likely will make us lose this battle. But the war against the prison state is one that we will eventually win.

Black leadership
The disturbance in between white and black people still continuous in America; therefore we have found different black people were take over their community charge. But with the help of American President Obama, many of black leaders were surrender to avoid criminal codes. It is quite better to maintain in the country; through beneficial supportive programs.
A research of individual
A research of individual encounters with health care during maternity found that low-income Dark and Latina females were more likely to review being motivated to restrict their family dimension than middle-class White wines.

Thank you!
Please Get the Facts
The Facts:
1. Controlling for socioeconomic status, race, and place of residence, the strongest predictor of whether a person will end up in prison is that he was raised by a single mother (i.e. fatherless).
2. By 1996, 70 percent of inmates in state juvenile detention centers serving long-term sentences were raised by single mothers.
3. Seventy-two percent of juvenile murderers and 60% of rapists come from single-mother homes.
4. Seventy percent of teenage births, dropouts, suicides, runaways, juvenile delinquents, and child murders involve children raised by single mothers.
5. Girls raised without fathers are more sexually promiscuous and more likely to end up divorced.
6. A 1990 study by the Progressive Policy Institute showed that after controlling for single motherhood, the difference between black and white crime rates disappeared.
The black crime and incarceration rates are symptoms of a much deeper problem. That problem is that black children are being born and raised fatherless. Such children are improperly socialized and ill-equipped to function in American society. Such children are the victims of a government child support/welfare policy that provides incentives to women who produce fatherless children.
For more details read my book, Black Genocide: The Untold Truth About Child Support Enforcement. Its available on Amazon.com.
The House negro -in- chief has no right...
...to talk down to Black people when it was his people who created the problems you speak of, in order to breakup the Black Liberation movement...
Obama repeats to Black folks many of the stereotypes whites said about him, and Blacks in general, while being raised by his white CIA mother and grandparents in Hawaii & Indonesia. How sad. Marrying Michelle and going to a Black church hasn't changed the manchurian candidates perception.
Too bad HE doesn't ever take any personal responsibility. He's always the first one to BLAME something, anything, on Republicans or whoever else he can get away with putting the blame on.
Part of "responsibility" regarding ANYTHING is HONESTY. How can you take responsibility for something that is never your fault? And the reason "nothing" is your fault is because you're such a LIAR.
He needs to stop preaching. He's got no room to talk. He needs to address HIS HOMETOWN. I can't see how the graduates of Morehouse are exactly the right audience for his stupid rhetoric.
It's amazing to have a "Black" President who claims Chicago is his home town but has to be begged by Farrakhan and Jesse Jackson to go there and do something for the youth. It is equally amazing to have a President who can bail out corporations whose CEOs squandered millions but does nothing to help Detriot (a majority Black City).
This guy and his wife have a lot of nerve telling Black people they're not special or entitled to anything, and then blaming the victims (AGAIN!) for the social crisis many Americans find themselves in, as if these 2 haven't been coddled and given a helping hand along the way by rich folks their whole entire lives: Peter Geithner? Zbigniew Brzezinski? Abner Mikva? Bettylu Saltzman? David Axelrod? Penny Pritzker? James & Susan Crown? Bill Ayers? Tony Rezko? etc.
Anyway... Black college kids are under a mountain of debt (Support the Warren bill S. 897). Wages for young Black adults are falling - and being slashed in half in some cases (See his Government/Wall St. auto industry restructuring). 30 million people are unemployed or underemployed.
40 percent of Blacks live below poverty line. 14% black unemployment (probably higher than that). 1 million Blacks in gulag's: that's 1 in 10 behind bars or on parole. 2.5 million families lost their homes in just three years according to a Root link i was reading.
While they gave their boot strap "tough love" speeches, another house negro in Detroit is carrying out a ruthless attack on Black people in order to pay off wealthy bondholders. All of this goes on while zombie banks and hedge fund hyena's are entitled to our government tax money, pensions, health care, Social Security, and the (privatized) "Federal" Reserve's printing mill to the tune of 84 billion a month! But they lie and tell us "You useless eater's are bankrupting America, there's no money to pay for you peons."!!!
Yours is a 'What Came First the Chicken or the Egg' Argument
It's a given that the info you site is likely factual, but you still have NOT looked at the over-all historical trend. I'll repeat again, up until the 1960s & 70s 2/3 - 3/4 of Black families had fathers in the home & at-least +60% of US prisoners were white men. By 1980 the prison population became increasingly Black & Brown w whites now making up less than 1/3 & Blacks being almost 1/2 of US inmates- while at the same time many prison became so-called 'privatized' [= $profitized$] & the US' prison population exploded by 5 - 7 Xs since 1980- even as crime rates fell. Much / Most of the exploding US prison population was due to the phony 'War on Drugs', mainly for simple marijuana possession- yet by the FBI's own stats show that whites commit 2 - 3 Xs as much total crime than Blacks- including drug violations. This implies that IF the US' Criminalized {in}Justice were not in fact RACIST- whites would/should still be over 60% of US prisoners & Blacks not more than about 1/4 of US inmates [FYI: the FBI itself also has a notorious legacy of racism & was founded by notoriously racist Gay Edgar Hoover].
During this same period Black families went from 2/3 - 3/4 having fathers in the home to now 2/3 - 3/4 of Black families are headed by single moms. IMO there's much more to this trend than your overly simplistic [& rather insultingly sexist] assertion that all of a sudden since 1980, Black women just couldn't keep their legs closed & panties on!
I've no doubts that having Black fathers in the home is a good thing, but that by itself won't magically fix the Black mass unemployment crisis, & mass Black incarceration via the Racially biased policies of the so-called Wars of Crime & Drugs [kinda hard to have Black fathers at home if they're locked up on marijuana beefs] & 'Stop & Frisk', etc. Thus while reducing &/or ending single Black motherhood is IMO certainly desirable, it's by itself NO 'Magic Bullet' solution!
"The U.S. imprisons more people per capita than any country in the world. With less than 5 percent of the world population, the U.S. imprisons more than 25 percent of all people imprisoned in the world.
There are more than 2.3 million prisoners in federal, state and local prisons in the U.S. Twice as many people are under probation and parole. Many tens of thousands of other prisoners include undocumented immigrants facing deportation, prisoners awaiting sentencing and youthful offenders in categories considered reform or detention.
The racism that pervades every aspect of life in capitalist society — from jobs, income and housing to education and opportunity — is most brutally reflected by who is caught up in the U.S. prison system.
More than 60 percent of U.S. prisoners are people of color. Seventy percent of those being sentenced under the three strikes law in California — which requires mandatory sentences of 25 years to life after three felony convictions — are people of color. Nationally, 39 percent of African-American men in their 20s are in prison, on probation or on parole. The U.S. imprisons more people than South Africa did under apartheid. (Linn Washington, "Incarceration Nation")
The U.S. prison population is not only the largest in the world — it is relentlessly growing. The U.S. prison population is more than five times what it was 30 years ago."
(From The Pentagon and Slave Labor in U.S. Prisons by Sara Flounders Global Research, February 04, 2013)
The difference between "illegitimate" and "legitimate" children is that some shaman performs some obscurandist ritual to sanctify the fornication of the parents of "legitimate" children.
Birth rates in poor areas are tied to lack of access to family planning support, limited sex education, and the pro-creation, anti-contraception efforts by religious organizations. This is true with all three Abrahamic religions: the ultraorthodox Israelis, the fundamentalist Muslims, and the most bizarre Christian sects—although all religions are intrinsically bizarre.
The issues raised by Mr. Swift are nothing more than deranged racist arguments that have been repeatedly discredited by reputable investigators.
Facts about Family Planning RE Black & Brown Women.
75% of US Family-Planning [PPFA] Clinics are in or near Black & Brown neighborhoods.
Over 1/2 of Black pregnancies & nearly 1/3 Hispanic pregnancies are terminated by abortion- vs only about 9% - 10% for white women. Thus NON-White women [& teen girls] account for nearly 2/3s of all abortions in the USA- w Black women [& teen girls] accounting for 37% of the total. Thus abortion rates for Black women [& teen girls] is 5 - 6 Xs higher than for white women [from the Guttmacher Institute's stats - FYI: Guttmacher is effectively the research arm of PPFA].
(From Information Please: 54% of women having abortions were using a contraceptive method about the same time they got pregnant.
As opposed to just- 8% of women having abortions have never used a method of birth control - [IE: nearly 7Xs as many women getting abortions used birth-control at the time they got pregnant as those who never used birth-control].
90% women at risk of unintended pregnancy are using a contraceptive method.)
Sex-education classes that include info about artificial birth-control modalities [& now abortion] have been mandated in most US Public Jr & Sr Hi-Schools since at-least the early 1970s. Abortion & STI / AIDS counselors have also been available in most Urban Jr & Sr Hi-Schools since at-least the early 1990s. Some of these counselors even distribute condoms [& OBC pills] to students & can even make abortion referrals for teenage girl students- without parental knowledge &/or consent.
More Nixaklielian Nonsense
I don't know where you have obtained this data—there are no specific citations, but it is bogus—like the "information" in so many of your nearly incoherent comments.
Above are two of many articles refuting the latest Nixaklielian barrage of distortions, misinformation, and misquotations. I especially recommend perusal of the second article.
Well Since You Didn't Bother to Look for Them Yourself-
Here's the chapter & verse of the sources which I in fact did actually allude to:
} Planned Parenthood is the country's leading abortion provider. Its affiliates performed more than 305,000 abortions in 2007.
The largest abortion clinic in the United States openned in Houston, Texas, in April 2010. Planned Parenthood renovated a former Houston bank into a 78,000 square foot facility. Pro-life advocates called it an abortion super center that includes a surgical wing equipped to provide late-term abortions.
Abby Johnson, a former Planned Parenthood director [for 8 yrs] turned pro-life advocate, says the new clinic will target minorities. "It's a neighborhood where 85 percent of the population is minority," she said. "That is very intentional by Planned Parenthood." "Seventy-six percent of Planned Parenthood clinics are built in minority neighborhoods," Ms Johnson continued. "It's very intentional and goes back to the roots of the organization." {
Guttmacher Policy Review [GPR] Summer 2008, Vol 11, Num 3- entitled: 'Abortion & Women of Color- the Bigger Picture'
Breif History of Sex Education [@ www.open.edu/openlearn/body-mind/health/health-studies/brief-history-sex-education ]
And I site my on personal experience as both a student & a teacher of CPS Schools.
And here's Some interesting excerpts from the source you sited @ www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC2835625/ :}
Abortion rates are also strikingly different across racial/ethnic and SES categories; in 2000 Black women had a rate of 49 per 1,000 women, Hispanic women 33 per 1,000 women, and women with an income of less than 100% of the FPL 44 per 1,000. In contrast, the rate for both White women and women earning more than 200% of the FPL was only 13 per 1,000. Between 1994 and 2000, the proportion of women having abortions who were low SES or minority women increased markedly. [FYI: this info shows that in the late 1990 to 2000 Black women were having abortions at rates 4 Xs greater than white women (Note: the US' aver pregnancy rate = about 97-100 per 1000 women)- PS: the info I sited from Guttmacher is from 2008, as the disparity had increased]
The historical relationship between discriminatory beliefs towards poor and minority populations and some family planning programs and policies, including the nonconsensual sterilization of mentally ill, poor, minority and immigrant women and coercive family planning programs, affects the relationship between these communities and family planning providers [DUHH!!!]. In fact, coercion around family planning has never receded completely to the background, as evidenced by controversy over recent programs in which specific populations [IE: Black, Latina, Native American women] were paid to use 'highly effective' [Humm] contraceptive methods. The family planning experiences of disadvantaged women are inevitably affected by these inequities.
Safety concerns for many Black women are shaped by [so-called] 'conspiracy' beliefs about contraception arising from this history of the use of contraception to control the fertility of vulnerable populations. A recent study assessing these concerns found that more than one third of respondents agreed that "medical and public health institutions [have an actual notorious history of] use poor and minority people as guinea pigs to try out new birth control methods". This distrust extends to Hispanics as well. Concerns about side effects from hormonal contraceptives appear to be particularly prevalent. For Black women, menstrual irregularities caused by hormonal contraceptive methods were of particular concern.
A study of patient experiences with medical care during pregnancy found that low-income Black and Latina women were more likely to report being encouraged to limit their family size than middle-class Whites, and a survey of family planning clients found that Blacks were more likely to report being pressured to start a contraceptive method than Whites. In a survey of Black women, 28% reported they had been encouraged to use one form of birth control when they preferred another, and 67% reported that they had experienced race-based discrimination when obtaining family planning services. An analysis of the National Survey of Family Growth also indicated that Black and Hispanic women were more likely to report having received counseling about birth control than White women, and that Hispanic women were more likely to be counseled about sterilization... { Remember the Context: Last yr it was reported that non-white births have now surpassed white births & by 2042 whites will be the minority population in the US.]
Wrong Focus Sir
You state that: "There's no issue that uniquely the states (sic) black lives, black families and black communities like mass incarceration, the rise of the current prison state."
I am unsure whether you don't know or simply refuse to admit the truth. But the 75% illegitimate black childbirth rate and 90% black fatherlessness are issues far more unique and affects more black lives, black families, and black communities than does mass incarceration. Equally important is that black single motherhood is what drives the fatherlessness, the educational failure, the unemployment, the drug use, the crime, and the incarceration you lament.
If we want to put a stop to the mass incarceration and the growing prison state, we must put a stop to the epidemic of black children being born and raised without fathers.We must put a stop to the fatherless black home. How do we do this? We focus our energies on halting the government welfare and child support systems that subsidize illegitimate childbirth. We also 'call out' the irresponsible women that breed outside of marriage for a government paycheck.
Of course there will be those who cry, ' What about the irresponsible men?!' My answer is that there are only irresponsible men because there are promiscuous/irresponsible women. Eliminate the latter and you correct the former. (See my book, Black Genocide: The Untold Truth About Child Support Enforcement.)
IMO Your {non}Analysis Is Not Just Flawed_It's Problematic:
First of all the issue of so-called 'illegitimate' Black children is a 2 way street [it takes 2 to tango]- Meaning there's plenty of Blame{game} to go around RE bad choices of both Black men & women on that score. While you're seemingly focused on accusing too many [Black] women of being 'too hot to trot', one might easily make the counter accusation that too many [Black] men are too 'dogishly' irresponsible [which Pres Obama has effectively said publicly several times, including at Morehouse's graduation just last month]. Plus DON'T over-look the reality of the historical impact of 'Ole Massa's sex-capades of forcing slave women & girls {ala Thomas Jefferson & Sally Hemmings} to 'breed' 'litters' of {often half-white} 'pic-a-ninnies'- which set the stage for this troubling 'legacy'.
2nd} FYI: As recently as just 4 decades ago [IE: the 1970s] 2/3 - 3/4 of Black urban families actually had fathers in the home. But in just 1 generation [certainly not more than 2]- IE: the later 1980s going into the 1990s- those stats actually flipped such that 2/3 - 3/4 of Black house-holds were / are now being headed by single moms. So obviously this issue can NOT be an inherently Black [woman] issue- despite the FOX-Noise type hype [maybe you should look at some Scandinavian countries IE: Iceland where single motherhood is accepted as almost normal].
3rd} If you look at the trend of when Black households had 2/3 - 3/4 of Black fathers at home, then flipped to now 2/3 - 3/4 are headed by single moms [circa later 1970s thru to the 1980s & 90s], you can see that it closely coincides w several other trends that hit Black communities hard IE: the [phony] so-called 'War on Crime' [including a rash of mandatory '3 strikes' laws - even for stealing a sandwich] = the phony 'War on Drugs' [= mainly marijuana - including that notoriously racist 100 to 1 penal disparity in crack vs powder cocaine], legalized racial profiling policing aka 'Stop & Frisk', etc- which led to the rise of the 'Prison Industrial Complex' [= $BIG BIZ$] = Mass Black [& Brown] Incarceration = 'The New Jim Crow'. Of Course when the Prison state locked / locks up so many young Black men [age 18 - 36]- this breaks up Black families [FYI: the number of US prisoners increased at-least 5 - 8 Xs since 1980 when at-least 60% of US prisoners were white men - Also prison teaches men how to be criminals- not how to be fathers & husbands], & makes it hard for ex-cons w criminal records to get decent-paying jobs so they can take care of a family. [FYI: There's been a repeating history of the CIA, DoD & Wall St Banksters being implicated in the drug trade- From Vietnam, to Iran-Contra in Central & South America {ala the Crack explosion of the 1980s}, to now in Afghanistan]. Of-course this leads to hi rates of Brothers re-offending. [FYI: Contrary to popular Hype & Spin- Whites commit 2 - 3Xs more serious crimes than Blacks- From FBI 2010 Crime Data Sheet: Offenders by Race: Total % of Offenders: 69.5% white -vs 28% Black - This was/is true for all major crimes except murder- where the totals were about equal for both whites & Blacks -&- Robbery {as much a financial as a violent crime} where Blacks committed about 26% more robberies than whites. Tellingly whites committed 2.1Xs as many DRUG offenses as Blacks, & also 7 - 8Xs as many DUI vehicular homicides as Blacks {which kills as many or even more than gun-murders].
4th} Add this to the general trend, since the 1970s - 80s, of de-industrialization & de-unionization of the US' [urban] work-force- leading to Hi- Black [male] unemployment / under-employment, & the so-called "sexual-revolution's" [of the latter 1960s, into 70s & 80s] devaluing of 'traditional family values' across the entire US.
5th} Since obviously you've got a problem w 'Welfare as We Know It'- the way to 'humanely' end it is to roll-out a full employment prog at a fair & living-wage in safe working conditions, etc. But that would run counter to the Neo-Liberal Disaster-capitalist agenda of both the Repugs & Obama's Dims. It would also mean significantly cutting the budget of the Military Industrial Surveillance {in}Security Complex, & reigning in the US' military imperialist [war] agenda abroad.
IMO the combo of all of these trends since the 1970s, especially RE: Black mass imprisonment & unemployment, adequately explains why Black families went from 2/3 - 3/4 having fathers at home to now 2/3 - 3/4 of Black families are headed by single moms- although more so-called 'liberal' moral [sexual] attitudes & standards- for both women & men [of all colors]- IMO was also likely a significant contributing factor.
On a related but slightly different topic. A recent report on AIDS Disproportional impacts on Blacks, curiously ignored the reality of Black mass incarceration as likely a [or even THEE] major factor RE this seriously problematic trend. It concluded that the main culprits were the fact that Black MSM men were 5 - 6Xs more likely to have male sex partners of the same race / ethnicity as compared to white MSM men [curiously 1/3 of white MSM men have sex w non-white males- HUMM], & also something about age disparities among Black MSM men as compared to white MSM men, as well as Black MSM men allegedly being more likely to stop using condoms when they enter long-term relationships w other Black MSM men. Be that as it may- How is it that NOT a mumbling word was said about the major role that mass Black incarceration likely plays in the AIDS explosion RE: Black men on the 'Down Lo' & also the exposure to their Black women partners- who have the highest AIDS rates among all other women in the USA??!!! IMO its also interesting that they also failed to even speculate on the role that intravenous drug use among Blacks might play in this tragic state of affairs.
Oh, I see clearly now. Make it nauseatingly simple.
Blame it on women.
Take ur chauvinist view back to ur reactionary think tank and burn it.
Yeah, ur swift all right. Ur insidious logic ruins the world.
