Bringing a Cuchillo to a Gun Fight

An intoxicated Kissimmee woman was arrested after threatening customers and stabbing a soda bottle with a knife at a Polk County Dollar General, according to the sheriff’s office. Two armed residents held the woman at gunpoint inside the store until deputies arrived to make the arrest. [More]

And she’s Colombian? I thought no human being was illegal…

Black Marks

Ammo

Non-Hispanic black Americans perish from firearm-related homicides at higher rates than any other race in the U.S. [More]

So… we can’t pin the greatest number on “the greatest threat“… ?

I take exception to “Number of Black Americans Killed by Guns Annually and How” for reasons that should be obvious.

I also take exception to anyone who says we dare not talk about this lest we be branded racists.

Blast from the Past

I’d be happy to share with her all the stuff we couldn’t get the media to notice, the IG to pursue, and the Republicans to act on, including unpublished source materials.

About that ‘Epidemic of Gun Violence’…

At least 12 people, including six juveniles, were injured in a shooting near Florida A&M University’s Bragg Memorial Stadium in Tallahassee on Saturday night, authorities said. [More]

If there’s nothing else they can tell us about those involved, I guess we’re all equally at risk of behaving that way and therefore just can’t be trusted with guns, right?

Oh, look:

Tallahassee police arrest 15-year-old suspect after shooting near Florida A&M football stadium

If only they’d disarm you and me, right, Giffords? (“Only some accounts can reply”!)

We’re the Only Ones Raging Enough

The ex-cop charged with gunning down a beloved Con Ed worker in a road-rage encounter on the George Washington Bridge was a driver for the wealthy CEO of an investment company – and was behind the wheel of the company’s Range Rover SUV at the time. [More]

Funny, how some get charged with Murder One on crimes like this and some don’t.

How does tailgating before firing not signify premeditated intent?

It’s a Family Affair

LouiseLucas

Virginia state senator indicted, accused of leading a marijuana distribution enterprise – Federal prosecutors allege the 82-year-old Senate President Pro Tempore used her political power and committee influence to shield a family-run marijuana ring operating across Virginia. [More]

The same family that illegally brings weapons into airport terminals…?

Talk about a “true champion“!

We’re the Only Ones Supplanting Enough

A Florida police officer who discovered a dead man inside his home allegedly saw an opportunity to make himself comfortable – moving into the property, embarking on a lavish renovation and even borrowing the corpse’s identity to get building work approved. [More]

What else would we expect from those steeped in an elite culture that authorizes armed men with badges to confiscate property?

I wonder if this had anything to do with it:

We’re the Only Ones with Blown Careers Enough

A federal judge in Texas sentenced a sheriff’s deputy from Webb County, Texas (Laredo), to 20 years in prison for sexually assaulting a woman during a traffic stop. [More]

What he did says something about the mentality, doesn’t it? Now juxtapose that against the department’s public posturing about it’s program to “empower women by providing valuable self-defense techniques, promoting personal safety, and raising awareness about domestic violence.”

I have a feeling he’s about to give as good as he gets… a lot…. now that the power dynamic has changed.

We’re the Only Ones Penetrating Enough

A Boston Public Schools security employee is charged with rape following an alleged incident at the State Police barracks on Martha’s Vineyard this summer that ended, prosecutors say, when passersby found a woman naked in the street, screaming for help. [More]

Even if it was voluntary, what the hell?

Here’s more.
