So Much for ‘Crime Gun Intelligence’

“The flow of crime guns to those people. How are they being armed? Many of them are felons, people who the law says can’t have weapons yet there finding them anyway.” [More]

So the guy in charge admits what he’s doing isn’t working and his solution is to do more of it…?

And marvel at the way professional “Authorized Journalists” are not only subject matter ignorant but grade-schoolers with their stock-in-trade, the English language.

So much for the “tenants” of journalism…

Gunwalker 2.0

ATF Employee Caught Gun Running to Mexico [More]

This is the topic I was thinking of writing up in detail.

I do have a quibble:

The Mexican Government makes the bold claim that 70% of all guns used in crimes were smuggled into Mexico from the United States.

That used to be the claim the antis all made, but they started at “95 to 100 percent.” Now the DSM is more properly qualifying things by saying:

Nearly 70% of TRACED [emphasis added] firearms used to commit crimes and seized in Mexico come from the United States, according to ATF.

So instead of being a flat-out lie, it’s now an insidious lie of omission, because they don’t then inform:

No specific numbers on how many of those guns “recovered in Mexico and traced back to the United States” were, in fact, military purchases, but the State Department cables indicate a portion of the fewer than 12 percent of the traceable weapons actually came from the United States in gun shop/individual type purchases. Remember, that’s not 12 percent of the tens of thousands of weapons recovered – it’s only 12 percent of the weapons recovered that were traceable. It’s nowhere near the 12 percent figure that has been misquoted and used as evidence of the United State’s “horrific” problem of illegal gun sales.

Now, tell us more about the drunks…

Dumber Than a Bag of Hammers

The man, who has only been identified as a 28-year-old from Redwood, then attempted to rob the gun store owner by swiping a firearm while wielding a hammer, according to witness statements to police. The gun store owner, who has not been named, grabbed a gun and fired two rounds at the suspected robber. [More]

That’s one way to commit suicide.

We’re the Only Ones Breaking Bad Enough

An NYPD cop and her boyfriend were arrested Thursday on federal narcotics distribution charges and related conspiracy counts for selling more than a kilo of heroin and nearly a pound of fentanyl to a confidential source working for the FBI. [More]

And up until the time she was arrested, she was legally empowered to arrest you for being armed where the city dictated you could not be.

We’re the Only Ones Estranged Enough

“I am shocked and deeply saddened to learn that my estranged son, with whom I have had very minimal contact over many years, is the suspect in this afternoon’s shooting of the two La Vergne police officers… Despite my efforts and guidance in the early and teenage years, my son, John Drake Jr., now 38-years-old, resorted to years of criminal activity and is a convicted felon. He has not been a part of my life for quite some time.” [More]

He sure made a point of distancing himself.

We’re the Fauxnly Ones Repelled Enough

Security video shows three masked men carrying guns shout “Seattle Police” while each trying to kick in the door. The homeowner grabbed a gun and fired multiple shots through the door at the intruders. [More]

Ah, the old Joe Biden Defense worked this time!

Except from the sound of it he may have had one of those guns not suitable for self-defense and made only for killing people…

As always, be aware of The Fauxnly Ones Files, because the day may come when you’ll need a “He was being such a scary thug I did not believe he was a real cop” defense.

There Oughta Be a Law

The man was arrested for felonious assault and has been charged with kidnapping, abduction and unlawful restraint, reports state. According to the article from the Akron Beacon Journal, the man has been imprisoned three times for kidnapping within the last decade. [More]

A “spate,” huh? Well, they do say “Do what you know…”

I wonder what could have stopped this…?

Substitute “woman” for “gun.”

The Going Rate

America’s highest gun death rates are in the South [More]

In Democrat enclaves among Democrat constituencies…

We’ve discussed the rates misdirection before. Just don’t expect the subversives at the oxymoronically-named Center for American Progress, or cheerleading DSM narrative parroters to admit the gaslighting.

So if the problem isn’t guns per se, then what is it?

We’re the Only Ones Gunwalking Enough

A former investigator with the ATF (Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives) is accused of trafficking weapons to Mexico while he was an employee of the bureau in 2017, according to a letter sent to the ATF Director this week by US Senator Charles Grassley. [More]

Jeez, another letter…?

Stop me if you’ve heard this one before.

I went to Grassley’s “News Releases” page and didn’t see the letter. I asked him for a copy:

Anybody have a link?

I started an AmmoLand article on this but then found another writer was working on it. I’ll wait for that one to see if there’s anything substantive I can add.

Speaking of Petards…

Police say 40-year-old Samantha Woll, president of the Isaac Agree Downtown Detroit Synagogue, “had been stabbed multiple times” and blood trailed from her home in the Lafayette Park neighborhood… [More]

And the one thing that could have given a woman alone a chance against a brutal assailant with a knife is what Dana Nessel doesn’t want to allow any of us to have. By virtue of her also working with Elissa Slotkin, I’d say Samantha was on board with that as well.

And here’s a real stumper for you. No speculation, please! How telling that a leftist Democrat politician publicizes himself by saying don’t exploit this for political purposes.

I guess we no longer have a spate.

Big Weasel 2.0

Anti-violence program director pleads guilty … Seven search warrants led to the seizure of more than 1,500 grams of crack cocaine with a street value of about $50,000, according to the Orange County district attorney’s office. Law enforcement also seized more than $167,000 and three illegally possessed handguns. [More]

As noted earlier, I haven’t been this impressed with a “commonsense gun safety” advocate since Hector “Big Weasel” Marroquin.
