The Best Laid Schemes

Millions in PPP, other COVID-19 relief funds went to gangs, fueled Chicago’s illegal gun market [More]

Hey, everybody: Let’s disarm the ones the kleptocrats steal from to bribe this constituency!

It’s hard to tell if incompetence or corruption outweighs the other in this absolute f***ing Democrat clown world…

Forget it, Jake. It’s Chi-Town.

We’re the Only Ones Back-shooting Enough

“The officers hid while Johnny did what they were trained to do, that the officers refused to go outside. These are three officers with bulletproof vests on, and they refused to open the door and go and engage the shooter.” For 11 seconds, the officers watched Hurley from behind as he was trying to remove ammunition from the automatic rifle, according to court filings. Without announcing “police” or asking him to drop the weapon, Arvada Officer Kraig Brownlow opened the substation door and took aim at Hurley from behind, hitting him in his back pelvis and killing him.

The Parkland/Uvalde Shuffle…

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.

F***ing clown world…
