Memories of Tru… O.J.

[More]

Yeah, a “typographical error”… somebody accidentally hit the wrong keys five times.

I was living in L.A. at the time of the whole $h!+show and had my weekend plans delayed by the Bronco chase.

It was a Friday night, and done with work we had a 200 mile drive to get up to a mountain cabin up the road from Kernville for the weekend. My wife and I had the van packed and were getting ready to load the cubs and head out when the phone rang– it was my older brother in Ohio who told me to turn on the TV.

There it was, heading up and blocking the 405, the freeway we had to take to head north. There was nothing to do but watch events unfold and wait for things to clear out.

When we finally did we could see the helicopters circling in the sky above his Brentwood digs as we headed up the freeway with four hours still to go…

Speaking of Serious Questions…

Deadly Chicago traffic stop where police fired 96 shots raises serious questions about use of force [More]

Like why did someone on pretrial release on a felony gun charge open fire first?

Who else is buying “Georgina Floyd’s” “Elizabeth!” act?

And why AP and the rest of the DSM are stoking race war fires…?

Certain Types of Gun Owners

Many Americans who recently bought guns open to political violence, survey finds – Study of 13,000 Americans finds particular risk among certain types of gun owners, including those who carry weapons in public [More]

Yeah, you can tell by the rampant homicidal lawlesness of those millions of NRA members.

Figures The Hero of Medicine is behind it.

And that “real reporter” agenda propagandist Ed Pilkington would present a blatant publicity piece as “news.”

Now do one that shows how voting behaviors change because of it.

I wouldn’t be breaking out the champagne just yet. The programmed electorate is going to act on its biases, and just because they don’t trust a source means they’re motivated or able to divine the truth..

At least tell me they weren’t also “aspiring rappers“…

Excessive free speech is a breeding ground for more Trumps [More]

The totalitarian-promoting wanker says that like it’s bad thing.

I’m sorry, I know you’re not supposed to judge a book by its cover, but that is one creepy, fascist-looking motherf****r

The Propagandist’s Lament

There’s too much to read and watch, too many places to read and watch it. It’s enough to distract you from the biggest news in journalism right now: In 2024, it’s harder than ever to get a tough story out in the United States of America… The result is a thousand stories you’ll never read, and a shrinking number of publications with the resources and guts to confront power.

You don’t say.

As for reasons why, you missed the barn.

Guilt by Innuendo

For the third year in a row, the gun shop owned by U.S. Sen. Ted Budd was among hundreds across the country flagged by federal authorities in 2023 for selling weapons that were later traced to crimes, according to newly released records. [More]

Funny, somehow the “real reporter” on this story missed the standard ATF disclaimer:

Not all firearms used in crime are traced and not all firearms traced are used in crime.

If ProShots was suspected of deliberately violating the law, this story would be ab0ut an ATF raid, arrests, and indictments.
