World War II Mortar Forces Evacuation, Shuts Down Turnpike

By Holley Ford
Published 20 minutes ago | Updated 7 minutes ago

The President George Bush Turnpike is closed after an explosive device from the World War II era was found in Rowlett.

Police say someone found a World War II mortar and brought it to a home in the 4600 block of Bayonne Drive Monday morning.

The Garland Bomb unit has responded to the scene, although it is unclear if the mortar is still dangerous.

A mortar is a muzzle-loading artillery piece that fires explosive projectiles.

The area has been evacuated for safety reasons and because of proximity to the area, the turnpike is shut down from Interstate 30 to State Highway 66.
It is not known when the turnpike will reopen.

JAY SEKULOW - 10 Things You Should Know About the American Center For Law And Justice (ACLJ)

Jay Sekulow is Chief Counsel of the American Center for Law and Justice ( ACLJ), one of the most prestigious law firms in the country.

10 Things You Should Know About the American Center For Law And Justice


https://www.hrc.org/resources/10-things-you-should-know-about-the-american-center-for-law-and-justice

1.) ACLJ has raised nearly $75 million in the past five years to fight for anti-LGBT causes, despite not meeting 10 out of 20 of the Better Business Bureau’s standards for charity accountability.
More...

2.) ACLJ suggests the “sin” of homosexuality might be to blame for the death of Tyler Clementi and the rash of teen suicides connected to anti-LGBT bullying.
More...

3.) ACLJ goes after cities and municipalities, simply for protecting employees against anti-LGBT discrimination.They even call workplace diversity training “offensive.”
More...

4.) ACLJ defended the Boy Scouts of America in their fight to prevent LGBT scouts and scout leaders, with the group’s founder warning of “predators as Boy Scouts, pedophiles who will come in as Scoutmasters.’’
More...

5.) ACLJ defends criminal punishments for consensual, adult same-sex behavior, saying homosexuality is destructive to society.
More...

6.) ACLJ literally helped write the discriminatory Defense of Marriage Act (DOMA), parts of which were deemed unconstitutional by the U.S. Supreme Court last year in United States v. Windsor.
More...

7.) ACLJ opened an office in Nairobi, Kenya, where the group promotes discriminatory legal and legislative policies and engages in “civic education to warn people of the dangers of homosexuality.”
More...

8.) ACLJ-Zimbabwe has organized meetings with the country’s ruthless dictator, Robert Mugabe, and advocated for keeping criminal bans on homosexuality in place as the country reformed its constitution. This is the same Mugabe who threatened to behead gay people in his country.
More...


9.) ACLJ’s export of hate isn’t limited to Africa. They’ve set up shops in Brazil, Europe, and Russia, all to push their anti-LGBT ends and oppose marriage equality and anti-discrimination measures across the globe.
More...

10.) ACLJ founder Pat Robertson thinks that introducing lesbians to your child might make “your children grow up as lesbians.” Robertson actually claimed a gay father given custody of his child over a Christian mother made the child “a flaming homosexual, and if I’m not mistaken, he contracted AIDS.”

This is who The Clinton Foundation steps in after, to fight against, in offering assistance globally.
They're kind of like the FEMA of Global Human Rights Abuse.
