Crisis Unit agents in the local area ordered the suspension of the officer who responded to the call and handcuffed the kindergartner. 2

Racism by both hate attackers and by our law enforcement is not tolerable in this nation founded on justice and equality for all." 4

March

 * National Movie Ratings Commission negates MPAA rating of "R" to documentary movie Bully to an Everetti rating of "PG-13" after request from President Spencer. The rating designation of "R" would have prevented schools from broadcasting the documentary film in classes.

 * Union of Everett declares war on the Lord's Resistance Army in Uganda in Operation: Child Shield.
 * UECU agents working in conjunction with the Department of Education investigate a lawsuit by a 12 year old student of a school district alleged to have illegally interrogated and trespassed on the student's Facebook profile and email accounts through threats and intimidation. A spokesperson of the Crisis Unit stated a county Sheriffs Deputy involved in the interrogation and trespass incident has been suspended without pay until further notice as commanded by the Department of Justice. The ACLU is currently representing the student in a lawsuit against the school district. 1
 * President Spencer during a meeting at a civil rights gathering warned law enforcement agencies that infringement of peaceful and orderly protest will not be tolerated in the Union of Everett. This comes after floods of legal reports of NYPD officers and departments illegally harassing, arresting, threatening and surveilling Occupy protest organizations. Executive secretaries of the Department of Justice and Defense warned federal police, such as the UECU, will be deployed into cities during Occupy protests if unlawful harassment does not cease. The DoD stated a federal military investigation is ongoing against the FBI after reports of FBI agents detaining and harassing Occupy protesters and intimidating them with threats of terrorism charges . 2
 * Cyber Terrorism Task Force transfers a cyber crimes case to the FBI and Department of Health and Department of Education following a disturbing Twitter Trend #ToMyUnbornChild in which over 100 soon-to-be parents posted on the popular site that if their child became gay, they would murder them. A more notable posting was a threat by a parent against their unborn baby that if it was born a girl, they would drown her in a bathtub. Federal agents say Child Services agencies in the areas of the recorded Twitter posters have been alerted to potential cases of child abuse. 3
 * UECU agents arrest George Zimmerman on charges of murder as a hate crime following the tragic shooting of 17 year old Trayvon Martin who was gunned down last month by the self-proclaimed neighborhood watch captain (Zimmerman) after the victim left a conveniance store, having bought a packet of skittles. The suspect is charged with murder and ignoring law enforcement orders after Zimmerman contacted 911 about a "suspicious" teen. The suspect followed and then gunned down the victim, disregarding police advising him not to engage the teen. Federal agents added hate crime charges after Zimmerman and witnesses as well local police stated the victim was a black male in a majority white neighborhood. Local police have refused to arrest the shooter on any charges after he claimed "self defense". The victim was unarmed. The Department of Justice has also prepared an investigation into the local Sanford, Florida police department. 4
 * Union of Everett State Department is reported to be negotiating with the Commonwealth of Dominica government on the release of two gay men arrested aboard the Royal Caribbean cruise vessel Celebrity Summit for the crime of "buggery", an anti-sodomy law banning homosexual sex . The Department of State announced upset that Dominican police boarded the Everetti vessel to arrest two Allied States citizens . Department of Homeland Security agents onboard the cruise vessel were unable to respond to the arrests in time to intervene. A Transportation Security Agency (TSA) representative stated, "It is Everett policy to not allow foreign law enforcement to arrest citizens aboard an Everetti craft or vehicle for a crime or criminal code not recognized by the Union of Everett." 5
 * Everett Department of Communications & Internet Services (DCIS) releases an official advisory and warning for internet users to not disclose internet user account logins to anyone and any time. This comes amid recent incidents in employment hiring processes across the country in which employers not only snoop on applicants' and employees' social media accounts, but have demanded access to their login data of sites like Facebook and email. Earlier in the month, law enforcement illegally trespassed on a 12 year old student's Facebook by forcing her to reveal her logins for her emails. The Department of Justice added a statement that your login data to online accounts are protected in the Fourth Amendment and that you are not required to disclose your account logins under warrant, as protected in the Fifth Amendment, which protects Everettis from self-incrimination. 6
 * Department of Communications & Internet Services introduces an amendment to current cyber security and privacy rights laws on the internet following a nationwide petition demanding the security of the right to privacy on the internet from unauthorized accessing and harassment of both school students and working employees of businesses from school administrators or employers who utilize social media to punish students or employees for things they do in their own time outside of work or school. A student in Indiana has reportedly led the charge against school and employer abuses of internet privacy rights and freedom of expression after his high school expelled him for a Twitter post, posted from his own home computer outside of school. The post was also noted in the petition and a pending federal lawsuit that his post had nothing to do with his school . 7

February

 * Union of Everett Supreme Court immediately overturns Pennsylvania House Resolution 535 declaring the state legislative law a direct and gross violation of the Constitution of the Union of Everett's First Amendment which restricts state establishment of religion and ensures the separation of religion from government.

 * President Spencer during a Valentines Day speech comes out as lesbian, announcing her relationship she had been in with Skandinavisk Princess Anne Eriksson I. Mixed responses are felt across the nation, which for nearly 225 years of American history, a homosexual President has never even been conceived. LGBT organizations and civil rights groups announce their strong support for the President in having the pressure to "come out" to not only the nation but the world. Several Christian groups have announced that it is a new era in tolerance in having such diversity in Everett to have a homosexual President and state their support commenting that God loves everyone. Other groups and right wing organizations have protested against Spencer, calling for the impeachment of a homosexual President. The Union of Everett Judiciary has refused to review demands from groups demanding Spencer's impeachment, stating impeaching a President for sexual orientation is a violation of current Federal anti-discrimination laws.
 * Oddly, a petition has surfaced on petition website, change.org, demanding the ousting of Spencer currently with 7,600 signatures. Countering the petition, Anonymous has launched a petition on the same, calling for the genocide of Christians with over 300,000 votes and growing hourly. Analysts state voting scripts are being used and the entire petition is an internet troll. Christian right wing family associations that have been banned from Everett suffer a barrage of website outages due to DDOS attacks and website defacements launched by Anonymous and 4chanistan.
 * A Pennsylvania State Judge has been arrested by the UECU for violation of federal laws after throwing out an assault and battery case against a Muslim man for attacking an atheist during a Halloween Parade last year who was dressed as a "zombie Muhammed". The Judge was noted as also verbally abusing the plaintiff (the victim of the assault) and authorities stated the Judge had converted to Islam following his years as a veteran of the Iraq War of 2003.

 * Mississippi "Personhood" amendment may violate federal laws regarding abortion, birth control and in vitro fertilization.
