Val Traore labels cuts a “bilateral disaster”

As food banks across the country warn that they are unable to meet demand, the CEO of the Food Bank of South Jersey says that the $5 billion welfare cut which came into effect on November 1st is causing a “nightmare ripple effect” for both businesses and hungry citizens.

Val Traore is drawing attention to the “bilateral disaster of food stamp cuts,” noting that they are impacting not just low income residents but also local businesses that accept food stamps.

“You can’t affect the food supply of an estimated 18,000 people as well as the revenue for nearly 1,000 businesses, and not expect a nightmare ripple effect. And what affects local businesses will extend outward to the entire community,” said Traore.

Traore’s sentiments echo those of others who have cautioned that the cut in food stamp benefits is going to cause a demand that many food banks will simply be unable to meet, prompting millions of Americans to go hungry and even setting the stage for domestic unrest.

Margaret Purvis, the CEO of Food Bank for New York City, the largest food bank in America, recently told Salon.com, “If you look across the world, riots always begin typically the same way: when people cannot afford to eat food.”

From November 1st, $5 billion was wiped off the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP) as a result of a planned stimulus withdrawal. Almost 50 million Americans who are supported by the program face an average loss of $36 dollars a month, which is a significant amount for those living near the poverty line.

The effect of the cut is really going to bite in the final week of November, which is when families dependent on food stamps usually run out of credit.

Major food banks across the country are sounding the alarm bell that they will not be able to satisfy demand. Purvis told USA Today that workers in her food bank were “panicking” over the decrease in benefits, fearing a rush of hungry Americans.

Joe Arthur of the Central Pennsylvania Food Bank also told the Associated Press that food pantry organizers will be “unable to plug the hole being left by a reduction in federal funding for food stamps.”

Illustrating the soaring demand for food, before the 2007 recession, the five food banks that form the Association of Arizona Food Banks were handing out an average of 69,000 emergency food boxes per month. Last month, 108,300 boxes were handed out, an increase of around 80 per cent.

More than a year ago, noted Republican commentator Pat Buchanan warned that the outcome of the Trayvon Martin case, in which neighborhood watchman George Zimmerman is on trial for murder, could provoke rioting.

“The public mind has been so poisoned that an acquittal of George Zimmerman could ignite a reaction similar to that, 20 years ago, when the Simi Valley jury acquitted the LAPD cops in the Rodney King beating case,” he warned.

It seems he may have been right.

WND reported earlier in the week that police in Sanford, Fla., where the trial is being held, already were going door-to-door, apparently trying to prevent any violent reaction to the jury verdict when it is reached.

But a number of bloggers and watchers say there are not-so-subtle rumblings of violence developing.

On the Mr. Conservative blog, Twitter threats were reproduced in abundance.

“If Zimmerman don’t go to jail ill kill him for $20,” said one.

“Gimme me tha pistol ill kill Zimmerman myself,” said another.

“If George Zimmerman win I’m gonna kill a fat white boy dat look lik George Zimmerman I swear,” said a third.

“This is despicable and seriously frightening,” wrote blogger Kristin Tate. “There is no way this would be tolerated if the threats from whites were against a black man.”

Read the latest on what’s happening in the Florida courtroom where Zimmerman is standing trial.

Zimmerman is on trial for the shooting death of Martin, a teen he said attacked him and pinned him to the ground, delivering blows to his head. Zimmerman said he pulled his weapon and fired at Martin, killing him, in self-defense.

The blog reported thousands were threatening to riot should Zimmerman not be determined guilty by a jury.

“In addition to hundreds of racist, disturbing tweets, there are several Facebook pages dedicated to promoting the murder of George Zimmerman,” Tate wrote. “One of those pages even urges riots if he is not found guilty for the murder of Trayvon Martin.

One of the postings states: “Let’s flex our muscle!. What, you scared?”

The online sentiment follows a video report that showed Sanford officers were going door-to-door

 

Police say they fear a backlash from the community when the verdict is delivered. Los Angeles had days of rioting when the Rodney King verdict came down.

So Sanford Police Chief Cecile Smith confirmed officers are going door-to-door talking to people.

“Our worst fear is that we’d have people from outside the community coming in and stirring up … violence,” he said.

At The American Dream, commentator Michael Snyder wrote; “Should we take the thousands of people that are threatening to riot if George Zimmerman is found not guilty seriously? After all, people make idle threats online all the time. Sometimes people say things on Twitter or on Facebook that they don’t actually mean and would never actually do in real life.”

Snyder said the justice system “has got to be able to function without having to be concerned about threats of violence if the ‘wrong result’ is reached.”

“George Zimmerman deserves a fair trial just like everyone else does,” he said. “If he is actually guilty of a crime, then let him be found guilty. If he is not guilty of a crime, then let him be found not guilty.”

Snyder said the notion “that he must be found guilty ‘for the good of society’ is complete and utter nonsense.”

“If we start allowing public opinion and threats of violence to determine the outcome of court cases, our legal system will lose all remaining credibility,” he wrote.

Paul Joseph Watson, author of “Order Out Of Chaos,” wrote at Infowars.com that authorities in Sanford already have enlisted the help of pastors as “observers” who will report to their congregations.

At Crimefilenews.com was the flat-out prediction of rioting.

“The George Zimmerman trial here has thousands of African-Americans getting ready for some serious bloodletting. I don’t want to make idle and dire predictions but this nation has never been so divided and racially sensitive. … Our African-

American president took sides on this case at the very beginning. That ratified a George Zimmerman guilty verdict in the minds of millions.”

Obama, himself, weighed in on the case long before it went to trial, saying that if he had had a son, he would look like Trayvon Martin.

Crimefilenews also noted the Twitter campaigns, with statements including:

  • “Hell is gonna break loose!”
  • “Let the riots begin.”
  • “Somebody in this great st of FL gone lynch his a**.”
  • “If George Zimmerman walks he better be in hiding for the rest of his life.”

The Huffington Post reported that the Miami-Dade Community Relations Board was meeting with others to set up designated protest areas.

“We want people to respond in a positive way. If they have frustrations they want to vent, we want them to do that in an orderly and organized way. So the message is: Peace for Trayvon,” a board member, Walter Richardson, said in an interview with CBS Miami.

Buchanan’s warning a year ago said that should violence erupt, those who “fanned the flames, and those who did nothing to douse them” should be held accountable.

Wrote Snyder at The American Dream: “The threats that some of the supporters of Trayvon Martin are making are absolutely chilling.’

Although Fox appears to be on the side of Zimmerman they show a picture of a 9 year old Travon and have one goon on the panel who wants to hang him. They spend a lot of time bad mouthing the rest of media when they are in on the racist scam also the whole thing is scripted to their benefit to keep their white audience and ratings. I have been watching the trial live and the prosecution is weak and has been caught lying it almost appears they are not even trying to convict Zimmerman. The defense has done a great job and it does not seem Zimmerman will be charged with anything. The jurors consist of 6 women 5 white and 1 Hispanic how could that even happen unless the deck was stacked. Looks to me like the riots may be coming soon.  http://patdollard.com/2013/07/frustrated-beckel-snaps-gives-the-lefts-official-lynch-george-cry-a-wannabe-cop-who-didnt-like-black-people/

      This is what happened in Egypt when their president did not fulfill any of his campaign promises in his first year in office. Duh and we reelected ours DUH.                                                                                                                                 Obama Admin Issues Warning Against Travel To Egypt; Permits Non-Essential Embassy Staff To Leave
Jun 28, 2013 No Comments ›› Jake Hammer

— The Obama administration is warning Americans against all but essential travel to Egypt and moving to reduce the official U.S. presence in the country amid fears of widespread unrest.

The State Department said Friday that Americans should defer nonessential travel to Egypt, citing the uncertain security situation. It also said it would allow nonessential staff and the families of personnel at the U.S. Embassy in Cairo to leave Egypt until conditions improve.

The move doesn’t require anyone to depart but encourages them to go by allowing them to do so at government expense. Officials say dependents and nonessential staff could be ordered to leave if the situation deteriorates.

The U.S. is deeply concerned by developments in Egypt, where clashes have broken out ahead of planned mass protests against the government. The protests were planned for this Sunday but started Friday so expect this to get very bad, real bad. Before Hillary left office she made sure that the Muslim controlled Morsi government received 250 million dollars in aid and F-16 fighter jets, congress just confirmed that Egypt would continue to get its 1.3 billion in aid. Turkey, Brazil, Chile and now Egypt are in revolt against their government.
