Shallow Media Treatment of ‘Accidental’ Shooting Leaves Public Open to Manipulation

It also shows the danger of lazy journalism when a news organization asks no questions/does no independent research, and essentially copies a government press release. To paraphrase the late Paul Harvey, “And now, the rest of the story…” [More]

Another “accidental child gun death” warranting the government to issue a word of caution to the public? How do you “accidentally” shoot your child four times, and would it be too much to ask “professional journalists” to even acknowledge the unexplained disconnect?

We’re the Only Ones Unrecorded Enough

The City University of New York is letting $120,000 worth of body cameras gather dust at one Manhattan school — because they don’t want the public to see the crime and violence taking place on campus grounds… [More]

See the crime or see the criminals…?

Mystery to Me

“At this time I believe that Mr. Kruger was trying to help Mr. Davis and they were acquaintances,” Marshmond said. “He was just trying to help him just get through life.” Marshmond said a motive for the killing has not been determined. [More]

Young, troubled black teen being “helped” by “openly queer” older, self-appointed “mentor”…

I wonder if Yul can help…

We’re the Fauxnly Ones Robbing Enough

Authorities searching for police imposters who pulled car over, stole from 2 men [More]

Rule of thumb: If it’s not a police car and they’re not in uniform, I’m taking off for the nearest cop station and calling 911. And doing whatever else I find appropriate.

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.

If Only They’d Disarm You and Me…

The U.S. Marshals and Cleveland police have taken custody of Antonio Baker, who is accused in at least three shootings, including one murder… U.S. Marshals took the second suspect, Bryce Tanksley, 18, into custody Thursday morning. The third suspect, a 15-year-old boy, was shot and killed Wednesday night… [More]

Between white supremacy and easy access to guns, I’d say Cleveland has a problem.

Dis-R-E-S-P-E-C-T

At one point, the victim and his girlfriend “can be heard laughing” about the flatulence, police said. Johnson appears in the video “looking at them while he scratched his head.” Johnson appears to become more irritated at the laughing, and after several minutes, pulled the gun and fired the shots, police said about the video. [More]

F***ing clown world…

Meanwhile, Over at the Department of Armed Gaslighting…

The request for a roundup of Hunter Biden-related cases alarmed agents because some attendees from DOJ — including Biden political appointees — had no authority in the case. That puts Merrick Garland’s insistence of “no DOJ interference” into serious doubt. [More]

“No authority”…? But what about Hunter’s “privacy”?

This is why I do FOIAs.

And why they resist them.

Go, and Sin No More

Based on an agreement between the prosecution and defense – and the fact the detention motion was withdrawn – Judge Clara Moran placed Gomez on an ankle monitor. Gomez isn’t allowed to communicate with the other suspects or victims, or possess drugs or guns. [More]

Well then, what’s the problem?

Meanwhile, Michelle wants an extension against you and me.

I don’t suppose my reputation as a hateful xenophobe would improve if I asked where these mutts and their families hailed from…?

Bullet Points

I accessed an archived copy of a report about the bullet Alec Baldwin fired into Halyna Hutchins. The thoughts strike:

The shell casing from the spent round and the rest of the cartridges remained in the cylinder. Has anyone seen a report on whether they were tested for fingerprints to know for sure who inserted the live rounds?

And does anyone have the editing skills to insert Baldwin’s face in this?
