No Good Deed Goes Unpunished

According to witnesses, 39-year-old Larry Lawrence, who was a store employee, was in the process of placing groceries in the rear seat of a vehicle, where a dog was located. He then began to pet the dog.

Concord Hymn

“The Hoedspruit Farmwatch volunteers blocked the roads outside of Hoedspruit with boulders after they were alerted of the attack. A skirmish, lasting about 20 minutes, ensued at one of the blockades between the robbers and the farmers, who were armed with pistols. The farmers managed to kill 4 of the robbers and wound 3. No farmer was hurt. The other suspects fled into nearby bushes after the shootout on foot.” [More]

Pack Lives Matter?

For every life “saved”–and let’s be clear, almost all of the people “saved” were criminals who were engaging in life-threatening crimes–15 people died who would not have if BLM hadn’t destroyed our policing system. That’s quite an exchange rate. For every life saved by reducing policing 15 extra people were murdered by a non-police criminal. Most of these people were not engaged in activity that was threatening the lives of others. [More]

I’m not sure I’m buying the correlation/causation assumption since police don’t arrive until after the fact.

I’m sure there’s an effect, I just have no idea how you’d reliably quantify it. Or am I overthinking it?

We’re the Only Ones Breaking Up Enough

She was his ex? He was trying to commit her?

Shades of cops being able to get red flag OKs! And they charged Mr. Clean with strangulation and official oppression?

Hollywood three-point landing tropes aside, you for the most part need a gun ladies, if you hope to have any chance against someone with roughly twice your upper body strength. And in this meathead’s case, it looks like more than that.

This is one of the best arguments for bringing back public crucifixions I’ve seen.

The victim ought to sue the car manufacturer!

Those bastards drive nicer cars than I do.

Forget it, Jake. It’s Chi-Town.
