New York City Hurricane Sandy Victims’ Homes Looted over Thanksgiving Holiday

I guess there really is no honor among thieves …

As if the victims of Hurricane Sandy have not gone through and lost enough. Now it is being reported that storm victims in New York City and some of the most devastated areas have had their homes looted as well over Thanksgiving. One of the areas reporting looting is the Breezy Point section of Queens, NY that was one of the most devastated areas where hundreds of people lost their homes. Now we learn that others were robbed and looted on Wednesday or Thursday when many residents were away for the holiday.

Some residents of a New York City neighborhood that suffered fire and flooding during Superstorm Sandy say thieves looted their damaged houses over Thanksgiving.

The New York Post reports  that thieves struck at least three homes in the Breezy Point section of Queens.

The Post reports that there were 14 home break-ins in Breezy Point from Nov. 12 to Nov. 18. There were none during the same period last year.

Just Disgusting … Planned Parenthood Abortion Clinic Offers Black Friday Discount

Talk about providing the “black” in Black Friday … This might be the worse dsplay of behavior of all of the heinous events of Black Friday. Sorry, but there is a special place in hell for you.

There is sick and then there is this. A Planned Parenthood abortion clinic in southern Florida offered a black Friday discount that including $10 off a visit to the abortion center. Unreal. The Planned Parenthood of South Florida and the Treasure Coast offered the $10 off discount. Imagine that there are those who think so little of life. So glad that Planned Parenthood think that they can drum up business with Black Friday discounts. I hate to be there for your day of reckoning. As aptly stated by the PJ Tatler, “Even if you are pro-choice, the inappropriateness and tastelessness of such a “discount” has to disturb you. And if anything, it should renew calls for defunding the organization.”

A Planned Parenthood abortion clinic in souther Florida is offering a black Friday discount — including $10 off a visit to the abortion center today.  Planned Parenthood of South Florida and the Treasure Coast offered the special, saying, “Visit our West Palm Beach or Kendall Health Center for special after Thanksgiving savings on Friday, November 23rd.”

Pro-life blogger Jill Stanek noticed the Black Friday discount and responded, “Planned Parenthood brings new meaning to the term, “Black Friday,” doesn’t it?”

13 Year Old Dylan Redwine Missing Since 11/19/12 in Vallecito, Colorado

13 year old Dylan Redwine has been missing since Monday, November 11, 2012 in Vallecito, CO. Dylan was last seen at his father’s home in the 2300 block of La Plata County Road 500, which is north of Vallecito Lake near Bayfield. Dylan lives with his mother in Colorado Springs, CO but was staying with his father for the Thanksgiving holiday. His father, Mark Redwine, went to run an errand at 7:30 a.m. Monday; however,  when he returned at 11:30 am Dylan was gone. Dylan was reported missing by his father the same day. Elaine Redwine, the mother of missing Dylan Redwine insists that someone knws where her missing son is and that “he did not go off on his own”.

“He didn’t go on his own,” Elaine Redwine said of her son, Dylan, who was visiting his father, Mark Redwine, during Thanksgiving break.

The couple are divorced and she lives in Colorado Springs.

“Dylan wouldn’t have left willingly,” Redwine said during an interview at the home of a friend Friday afternoon. “If there was any way to communicate he would have called.”

 

The missing boy is 5 feet tall, 105 pounds, with blond hair, blue eyes and fair complexion. He was last seen wearing a blue-and-white Duke Blue Devils baseball cap, black Nike T-shirt and black Jordan tennis shoes.   “Dylan wouldn’t have left willingly,” Elaine Redwine said Friday during an interview at the home of a friend. “If there was any way to communicate he would have called.”   Dylan was picked up Sunday by his father at Durango-La Plata County Airport, his mother said Friday. Dylan announced his arrival in a text message and ended it with the emoticon that is interpreted as a scowl, she said.

This case has the appearance that Dylan Redwine might have initially run away from his father’s home as all signs indicate that Dylan did not want to be there. His visit was a part  of a court-ordered Thanksgiving holiday visitation. Dylan, his mother Elaine and his brother recently moved to Colorado Springs, CO following his parents divorce. However, what happened after that might be something totally different. A Vallecito resident had seen Dylan walking with another boy Monday afternoon, but did not know that Dylan was considered missing at the time.

A nearby resident who knows Dylan reportedly saw him walking with another young boy along La Plata County Road 501 in Vallecito Monday afternoon, but the resident didn’t know Dylan was missing until Tuesday.

“We have to consider everything from foul play to a runaway,” said La Plata Sheriff’s spokesman Dan Bender

Anyone with information about Dylan should contact La Plata County Sheriff’s Office investigators Dan Patterson (970-382-7015) or Tom Cowing (970-382-7045).

National Center For Missing and Exploited Children

UPDATE I: Search continues for missing Four Corners boy Dylan Redwine.

Volunteers have been making door-to-door contacts to spread the word about Dylan, and searching areas near where he was last seen.   Five investigators from La Plata Sheriff’s Office are assigned to the case. Deputies and officers from other law enforcement agencies respond to any report of a young person resembling Dylan.   On Friday, the sheriff’s office released new details about what clothes Redwine may have been wearing when he disappeared.   The La Plata County Sheriff says he may have been wearing a blue and white Duke Blue Devils baseball cap, a black Nike t-shirt, black basketball shorts and black Jordan shoes.   “We have not ruled out any possibility” said Dan Bender, Public Information Officer for La Plata Sheriff’s Office.

A Sign of the Zombie Apocalypse? Nope Just People Acting like Fools on Black Friday … Gunshots, Robbery and Unruly Behavior, Oh My

One might think that the following is a sign of the Zombie Apocalypse. Sadly, it is the masses acting like souless zombie.

Across America yesterday, massive mob of foolish individuals knocked down the sales associates, fought with each other, kicked, punched and trampled over each other all in the name of Black Friday. No better or worse as the case may be, example of this behavior was at the Victoria Secrets at Woodland Hills Mall in Tulsa, Oklahoma. The masses did not act any better at the Victoria Secrets in the Oak Park Mall in Overland Park, KS either.

UPDATE I: Dateline San Antonio, TX … man pulls gun on shopper who cuts line and punched shopper in the face.  Those rowdy, inconsiderate idiots best beware of the those who have a valid conceal gun permit.

UPDATE II:Black Friday shoppers smash door at Urban Outfitters injuring about five people in, Santa Monica, CA.

UPDATE III: Black Friday Violence: 2 Shot Outside Walmart in Florida.
