We’re the Only Ones Knowledgeable Enough

5 deputies and officers sent to hospital after sheriff’s office says man intentionally blew up home… Because of Borja’s criminal history, the sheriff’s office also responded in a supporting role. [More]

Tell us more about that criminal history, and what the guy was doing out.

I’m sorry, I watched the video with the newschick with a nose ring and kind of lost track of everything else… Look, I’m old and never watch TV news, so I gotta ask: When did this become an acceptable professional standard?

I also don’t like to see cops with sleeve tats, so you’ll just need to forgive my intolerant social obsolescence.

Our Work is Done Here

Gun violence restraining order imposed against Carlsbad man linked to Madison, Wisconsin school shooter…Though criminal charges have not been filed against Alexander Paffendorf, 20… Paffendorf was detained by law enforcement and his home was searched. While no guns were found and no guns were registered to him, an emergency gun violence protective order was obtained late last year. [More]

And we all know those keep dangerous people from getting guns, don’t they?

Because He Can

Man gets 20th impaired driving arrest while allegedly driving drunk in Ohio [More]

Not segregating such threats from society ensures the lethal danger they impose on the rest of us will continue.

And before locking his selfish old loser @$$ up, about a week in village square stocks with a rotten egg , tomato, and cabbage barrel nearby, and no bathroom breaks, followed by a public flogging seems an appropriate way to invite community sentiment.

Fleming’s truism applies. You wonder if they’d have done it to him the third time if all this could have been avoided.

Once is Happenstance…

Dallas police said one of the men Long was with “reached out and brushed his hand along the passenger side of a passing Mercedes as they were walking across the street.” Investigators said that’s when 34-year-old Kendrick Finch got out of the passenger side with a gun and opened fire. [More]

See, they disrespected him.

We’re the Only Ones Still D!cking Around with What Won’t Work Enough

The DOJ filed the reports to convince Judge Aileen Cannon to allow the prosecution to present evidence of Routh’s prior convictions to a jury—ostensibly to demonstrate that Routh knew he was a felon who wasn’t allowed to possess a gun when he tried killing Trump last September. [More]

Like that ever stops anybody.

Further bolstering the “prohibited persons” concept hardly advances “shall not be infringed.” Those who have been so designated need to be either enfranchised or contained.

Lest Ye Be Judged

Pennsylvania judge convicted of shooting ex-boyfriend in head as he slept [More]

And “in a 2019 incident … she shot her estranged husband after asking him to come to her home to help move furniture…”?

Sounds like “can’t be trusted with a gavel” is the least of it…

Any bets against “Democrat“…?

California’s ‘Control Me Because I Can’t Control Myself’ Bill

This bill would require the Department of Justice to develop and launch a system to allow a person who resides in California to voluntarily add their own name to, and subsequently remove their own name from, the California Do Not Sell List, with the purpose of preventing the sale or transfer of a firearm to the person who adds their name, as specified. [More]

So… what the hell are they doing out without a custodian?

“Voluntary,” of course, means coereced to keep from having worse charges filed. Hey, why should people who don’t respect the Second Amendment care about the Fifth?

The feds tried this crap and never did explain where they get the authority from.

We’re the Only Ones Less Lethal Enough

According to the Bismarck Police Department report, Chief Lahay stated he “instructed Officer (redacted) to go less lethal and transition to her taser.” FOX 2 redacted the other officer’s name since she is not accused of any wrongdoing. Lahay further stated that Kalob became aggressive and overpowered Roberta, who was holding on to Kalob at the time. Chief Lahay wrote, “Out of fear for the lives of Roberta, Officer (redacted) and myself of being shot by Kalob, I fired my duty pistol.” [More]

I’d hate to see’em go MORE lethal…

That said, it sounds like the contingency lawyer wants a payday from a no-win scenario because an immutable law had been ignored.

Brain Trust

A “cannibal” who killed a homeless man and ate his eyes and brain was committed in 2013 to Connecticut’s custody for a term of 60 years, then released from the secure facility where he had been housed on “temporary leave” to a group home in September 2023. A hearing scheduled for February 21 will determine whether he is essentially set free under “conditional release.” [More]

Add “brains” to the list.

Some things are broken and cannot be fixed.
