California governor signs law defying cooperation with NDAA indefinite detention

End Of Days News

California Governor Jerry Brown has signed a law barring state cooperation with any attempt by the federal government to indefinitely detain people. The legislation targets the 2012 National Defense Authorization Act (NDAA).

Brown signed into law AB351, which goes beyond any other state in rejecting federal indefinite detention power, according to the Tenth Amendment Center. The law reads, in part, “It is the policy of this state to refuse to provide material support for or to participate in any way with the implementation within this state of any federal law that purports to authorize indefinite detention of a person within California.”
 
The NDAA allows the US military to indefinitely detain anyone - sans charges or a trial - on the basis of “national security” concerns. The legislation has drawn a series of legal challenges and attempts in several states to limit its strength.

California’s new law not only targets the NDAA provisions, but also any future federal law that grants officials open-ended detention powers.

Though the NDAA has not been used to date, both administrations of Presidents Obama and George W. Bush have claimed power to detain indefinitely without charge “enemy combatants” caught in Iraq, Afghanistan, and around the world at Guantanamo Bay and other prisons. More

THIS WAS NO MIX UP FOLKS! Baby returned to parents after mix-up over ‘neglect’

End Of Days News

A Sacramento court has ruled for the return of a baby who had been forcefully taken from his parents by police and child protective services without a warrant on April 24, according to a Russian consulate spokesperson’s statement.

The five-month-old child had been temporarily taken from his family after his parents - a Californian couple - were involved in an argument with doctors over the course of his treatment following a medical check-up they took him to after he began exhibiting signs of flu.

Sammy Nikolaev has been in protective custody since April 24, when the police and Child Protective Services (CPS) had forced their way into the Nikolaevs’ California apartment after the family took the child from the hospital without proper discharge.

The CPS claimed the boy had suffered “severe neglect” at the hands of his parents.

“After five hours of deliberation and analysis of factual information presented by both sides, the judge decided to dismiss all charges against the parents”, the Russian Consul in San Francisco, Evgeny Avdoshin, told RIA Novosti.

“In line with the verdict, the baby will remain with his parents”, he added.

Avdoshin also said that the US court has fully respected the rights of Aleksandr Nikolaev - a Russian citizen - as a parent and that everything was according to proper procedure.

Yet just a few days ago, a completely different picture of distrust and accusations was being painted.

“I was pushed against the building, smacked down,”Alex said.

“I said, ‘Am I being placed under arrest?’ He smacked me to the ground and yelled out ‘I think I got the keys to the house!’” Alex later told reporters,

“It doesn’t seem like parents have any rights whatsoever.” During the commotion in the driveway Anna had set up a camera pointing at the door. At least four police officers, who did not have a warrant, are shown on film barging into the home followed by CPS workers demanding Sammy.
