More to the Story

Ghost gun, other firearms confiscated; 2 people arrested… The arrested individuals were eventually released after the St. Louis Circuit Attorney’s Office declined to press charges. [More]

That would be this guy.

There’s a tale here that needs to be ferreted out and told. So, is the “real reporter” going to follow up on this or move on to the next filler piece?

Someone should ask:

Meanwhile, Over at the Party of ‘Commonsense Gun Safety Laws’…

Dem congressional candidate charged with terrorist threats after pulling gun on government officials [More]

In the Spirit of Aloha, no doubt.

And as long as we’re there:

Star-Adv: “Stop this investigation before you catch more crooks!”

We don’t want to run out of Democrat officials, do we?

It’s the Kapu Tradition.

Katie Bar the Corridor

Just months after Wilson took office in Seattle, terrified residents in the city’s Aurora Avenue corridor decided to take matters into their own hands to address near-nightly shootings believed to be connected to criminal turf wars, prostitution and illegal trafficking. After weeks of gang-related shootings and high-speed car chases, some residents spent Memorial Day weekend blocking off their own streets using metal planters, dirt, gravel, logs and chunks of concrete. The barricades were set up to block at least three streets leading into the neighborhood. [More]

With that Moms Demand Action endorsement, it’s not like Katie will let them have anything else.

Am I the only one seeing it or does it look genetic with her fanthings?

We’re the Only Ones Entrepreneurial Enough

Outrage as Indiana police chief is accused of stealing confiscated guns and RESELLING them onto the streets of his crime-ridden city [More]

I wonder if he put his “customers” through this:

Interesting— his dad is a Democrat candidate for sheriff who was wholly onboard with the Harris/Walz citizen disarmament agenda.

MacArthur Park is Melting in the Dark

A California man who claimed to work for a taxpayer-funded nonprofit that, according to court documents, distributed needles to drug users in Los Angeles’ notorious MacArthur Park was busted for allegedly attempting to sell fentanyl, authorities said. [More]

Hey, if Big Weasel can do it

What do the long-known conditions of this tax-funded park say about Democrat government?

This is My Shocked Face

A 17-year-old suspect arrested in connection with a weekend shooting rampage across Austin that left four people injured is now facing an Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) detainer. Cristian Fajardo Mondragon appeared in court Tuesday where prosecutors revealed he is not a U.S. citizen and has an active ICE hold. He was also on probation through the juvenile justice system at the time of his arrest and has a juvenile detainer. [More]

Aiding and abetting cultural destroyers is what the billionaire-funded “No Kings” useful idiots are all about.

The Elephants in the Room

Shocking New Fraud Reports From Ohio May Amount to $1 Billion [More]

Really makes me wanna go out there and pay “my fair share” in taxes…

Ohio Republicans who run the state have been pretty much worthless on a lot of stuff, with Kasich and Dewine being representative of what rises to the top, and Casey Putsch being representative of what they won’t let anywhere near the corridors of power.

All the Wrong Reasons

Cambridge City Council votes to end use of ShotSpotter technology [More]

Even if it wasn’t a documented boondoggle and if it did prevent violence they’d be against it because it “leads to the over-policing of communities of color” and  “ShotSpotter devices could be used by the federal government to perpetuate an immigration enforcement agenda that is deeply unpopular in Cambridge.”

Massholes get the “gun violence” they vote for.

Lest Ye Be Judged

A Massachusetts judge openly confessed in court that she knew she was rolling the dice by giving a light sentence to a career criminal with a 20-year rap sheet packed with violence, guns, and assault convictions. She did it anyway. Now Tyler Brown is back in custody after opening fire with 50 to 60 rounds on a busy Cambridge roadway, critically injuring two innocent drivers. [More]

So… what do you think’s gonna happen to her?

Above the Law

In short, prosecutors often decide who will go to prison for a long period of time, regardless of the will of the voters. It gets even a little stranger. Though many states initially stripped judges of any discretion under habitual offender laws, the courts pushed back. For example, a case in California (People v. Romero) ended up with the California Supreme Court declaring that trial courts have discretion to dismiss or strike prior strike allegations in Three Strikes cases, either on the court’s own motion or on motion of the prosecutor (even over the prosecutor’s objection). Stated more bluntly, trial judges can creatively thumb their noses at three-strike law requirements. [More]

What could go wrong?

There’s only one law that should matter with violent habitual offenders.
