During World War I it was the task of the U.S. Department of Justice, using the newly passed Espionage Act and its later Sedition Act amendment, to prosecute and convict those who opposed America's entry into the conflict. In Unsafe for Democracy, historian William H. Thomas Jr. shows that the Justice Department did not stop at this official charge but went much further - paying cautionary visits to suspected dissenters, pressuring them to express support of the war effort, or intimidating them into silence. At times going undercover, investigators tried to elicit the unguarded comments of individuals believed to be a threat to the prevailing social order. In this massive yet largely secret campaign, agents cast their net wide, targeting isolationists, pacifists, immigrants, socialists, labor organizers, African Americans, and clergymen. The unemployed, the mentally ill, college students, schoolteachers, even schoolchildren, all might come under scrutiny, often in the context of the most trivial and benign activities of daily life. Delving into numerous reports by Justice Department detectives, Thomas documents how, in case after case, they used threats and warnings to frighten war critics and silence dissent. This early government crusade for wartime ideological conformity, Thomas argues, marks one of the more dubious achievements of the Progressive Era - and a development that resonates in the present day. Best Books for Special Interests, selected by the American Association of School Librarians "Recommended for all libraries". - Frederic Krome, Library Journal "A cautionary tale about what can happen to our freedoms if we take them too lightly". - Dave Wood, Hudson Star-Observer

A tutorial on firearms design and function with an emphasis on safety using past investigations of failures to better understand why some guns are safer than others, by design.

Since 1987, when the global community first recognized the high frequency of women in developing countries dying from pregnancy-related causes, little progress has been made to combat this problem. This study follows the global policies that have been implemented in Sololá, Guatemala in order to decrease high rates of maternal mortality among indigenous Mayan women. The author examines the diverse meanings and understandings of motherhood, pregnancy, birth and birth-related death among the biomedical personnel, village women, their families, and midwives. These incongruous perspectives, in conjunction with the implementation of such policies, threaten to disenfranchise clients from their own cultural understandings of self. The author investigates how these policies need to meld with the everyday lives of these women, and how the failure to do so will lead to a failure to decrease maternal deaths globally.

The symbol of bank security has been the safe. Today it should be the "unsafe" because, as this book reveals, your bank deposits are now in danger in at least 20 major ways—from cybercriminals, money-hungry politicians, Too-Big-To-Fail bankers, and those now stealing your dollars’ value—including the dollars you thought were secure inside bank vaults. Your bank account is systematically being robbed, and is at serious risk of being seized and looted. How much interest is your bank paying you for putting your money at such risk? Less Than Zero Percent! Monetary expert Craig R. Smith and futurist Lowell Ponte show why it has become illogical, and hazardous to your wealth, to trust your money to today’s increasingly vulnerable and unsafe banks. Banks (as we know them) and the U.S. Dollar are dying as we are pulled into the rising "cashless society" where everything, from your digital "money" to your household appliances, will be Internet-controllable and hackable, as well as trackable and taxable by bloated governments desperate for ever-more revenue. Smith and Ponte propose a surprising alternative future you can bank on, based in part on what a Harvard economics professor did with his own near-million-dollar bank account. This book shows ways to save your savings.

On November 1, 2018 at Levi's Stadium in Santa Clara, California, the San Francisco 49ers hosted the Oakland Raiders on a nationally televised Thursday Night Football game with additional Security including over 400 Law Enforcement Officers. But not one of those 'Sworn to Protect and Serve' was even aware of a brutal beating incident until a single visiting Oakland Raider's fan put himself in harm's way to contain, restrain and bring the assailant to arrest and custody. This 'Good Samaritan' contacted the Santa Clara Police, Levi's Stadium Management and even talked with the NFL before all parties 'went dark' because of who the 'Good Samaritan' was. In this explosive book, as an attorney for this case, In Pro Per, Fred Weaver details the chaos and lack of security at Levi's Stadium, leading to recent 'near fatal' attacks, and personal injury lawsuits. Weaver also exposes Santa Clara Police Department 'corruption', City of Santa Clara 'dirty laundry' and the City of Santa Clara Council Members' 'toxic' relationship with the San Francisco 49ers entities, making Levi's Stadium the Most Dangerous Public Venue in North America. And the NFL tries to avoid any discussion of the quietly escalating issue of fan violence at your team's stadium as well... This piece of legal work by Fred Weaver is destined to be studied for decades to come. A must-read for anyone caring about their safety at any type of national and international stadium sporting event or music concert and anyone interested in justice. An absolutely required reading for anyone pursing law or criminal justice as a life passion. FRED WEAVER works worldwide, often on complex and sensitive investigations. His experience crosses several industry sectors and geographies. He advises and provides investigation for security and fraud prevention support to governments, companies and organizations.
