Unexpected Twist/Predictable Response

A gun violence restraining order obtained by CBS 8 states a 20-year-old Carlsbad man was texting with Samantha Rupnow to coordinate a mass shooting. [More]

Because we all know dangerous people can’t get more guns.

So, due process trumps expedience…?

“Yes, I’d give the Devil benefit of law, for my own safety’s sake!”

Born to Be Caged

Christopher McDonnell, 32, pleaded guilty in October to more than 20 felonies including murder, attempted murder, murder conspiracy, weapon charges and being a felon illegally in possession of a firearm. [More]

Tell me I don’t want him anywhere near me without telling me I don’t want him anywhere near me.

So, how many times has he been cut loose to continue being a known threat?

Sounds like the whole family needs a custodian. And tell me Kayleigh doesn’t just scream “Good judgment in men”…

Must Be the Gun’s Fault…

“[A] long history of mental health issues, alarming criminal behavior, and past stints in prison,” eh?

And let’s hear if for California gun laws!

We’re the Only Ones Arms Dealing Enough

Police illegally sell restricted weapons, supplying crime [More]

It’s a prickly issue, alright…

On the one hand, I see the danger.

On the other, it seems like Democrats could use this to call for destruction rather than resale to the public…

If government just followed the law, we woudn’t have this problem.

A Model Prisoner

The New York Post reported that Romero had been released from jail only four days before this incident. Authorities told the Post that Romero had been “freed on Nov. 14 after serving just half his 50-day indecent exposure sentence due to ‘good behavior.’” [More]

Yeah, because if he’d tried that $h!+ there they’d have shivved his smirking punk @$$.

How much louder and clearer can some people make it that they can never be trusted without a custodian?

We’re the Only Ones Unfocused Enough

In May, the sheriff said the ALPR system helped deputies track down a burglary suspect. Investigators identified the suspect car as a gray Porsche, and the owner was a 15-time convicted felon. [More]

The sheriff and his fawning media cheerleaders don’t think they’re kind of missing some larger points here…?

Due Process First

Just tell me you’ve got Donald on board.

I suppose it’s too much to mention the only law that will work

There Oughta Be a Law

The family hoped officers would either seize the weapon or transfer it elsewhere. The gun ended up with a third party, then eventually ended up back in Harris’ hands. Police could not take possession of the weapon at the time due to Missouri’s lack of a red flag law. [More]

Ya gotta wonder when people are going to wake up and realize it’s not the weapon that needs to be transferred elsewhere

We Gonna Celebrate and Party with You

Ten people were shot, including those who were killed, as gunfire erupted on the 1200 booth of North Alden Street at about 2 a.m., the Philadelphia Police told WPVI, adding that more than 100 people were at the scene for the party. [More]

I can’t tell you how many of my gatherings have been ruined by this.

Keep ignoring the undeniable and blaming the guns, idiot prohibitionists.

We’re the Only Ones Exonerated Enough

No Charges in Deadly ATF Arkansas Home Raid [More]

Did anyone seriously think there would be?

Those whose Constitutional mandate is to not infringe on it executed a citizen for exercising his right. Their pretext, that some of his sales allegedly went to “prohibited persons,” is a fraudulent excuse because there is no delegated power authorizing the whole concept.

There’s only one way to address that problem…

If Only They’d Disarm You and Me…

Schierbaum said the suspected shooter has been arrested at least 11 times and is someone who should never have been in possession of a gun. [More]

Yeah? And how does he propose to make that happen?

Interesting response options

On a positive note, at least Moriarty wouldn’t have been scared.

Tangentially-Related UPDATES (Alright, they happened around Atlanta, so I’m gonna stuff ’em all in the same drawer)

These two take me back years, to a job I briefly touched on. They hired me to run their plant in SoCal but wanted to indoctrinate me with an introductory month-long gig as the preseident’s personal assistant, to learn the company (his) ways.

I wasn’t there but a day or two when he got the call that his Atlanta plant manager needed brain tumor surgery, so my trial by fire was to fly down there and take over the factory until such time as he could come back to work or a permanent replacement could be found.

I was going through the financials with the controller down there and asked why we were being hit up for something called “MARTA,” and she explained the Metropolitian Regional Transit Authority sales tax. The (black) foreman overheard us, laughed, and told me it stood for something else.

Both ‘Sides’ Ignoring the Instinctive Truth

Likening drug users to people who are “mentally ill and dangerous,” the ruling says barring them from owning firearms is not unconstitutional on its face. [More]

The Ninth Circuit Court of Appeals just said that the felon in possession of firearms statute may not apply to nonviolent felons. [Watch]

They did it!

They missed the barn!

Running with Scissors: The Adventure Continues

Ntando Sogoni, 35, of South Africa was charged with assault with a dangerous weapon. He faces a maximum penalty of 10 years in prison. [More]

At which point we can trust him with sharp everyday objects again…?
