Who could have predicted someone with three felony strikes against him already would get in trouble again?

This is a belief in authoritarian supremacy and the magic of the badge of the “Only Ones,” like the Pontifical Swiss Guard and Gendarmerie Corps. [More]
Armed guards with state-of-the-art weaponry for them and martyrdom for the rest of us…
Women are buying more guns, though studies suggest self-defense use is rare… A Harvard University analysis found people defended themselves with a gun in less than 1% of crimes from 2007 to 2011. More recently, a Stanford University study of 17.6 million Californians found that people who lived with handgun owners but did not own a gun themselves died by homicide more than twice as often as their gun-free neighbors.

If what they say is true, NRA families must be self-destructing at an astonishing rate.
Somebody at Faux News decided it was important to offset reality by citing “statistics” and talking points from people who want to ban guns. Nothing like assigning such stories to a self-described “cat lady.”
Officials investigate mysterious disappearance of 30-Ton shipment of explosive chemicals in California [More]
So Chuck Schumer’s proposed taggant mandate would have worked about as well as tracing guns back to their original purchasers?
The question now becomes “Who has them?”
Enemy foreign open border opportunists or an FBI/ “white nationalist” low-hanging fruit joint venture…?
Three people were shot and killed at the Klymax Lounge in Kansas City, Missouri, early Sunday, police said. [More]
I guess the perp needed help with his rent…?
Funny, though, what he did have money for…
3-year-old shoots 2 people in Lafayette, who was wanted for murder [More]
I can’t tell you how many times that happened at my house when feral sons Uday and Qusay were growing up.
Thank goodness “safe storage laws,” or in Indiana’s case, a Class C felony for “dangerous control of a child/firearm” charge, will keep these things from happening in high-risk (criminal) homes!
Target expects organized retail crime-fueled losses to jump by $500 million this year [More]
Maybe there’s something about “progressive” clientele and the value they place on property rights…

Lauren Heike as Another Victim of Transsexual Violence [More]
The rejoinder will be “Look at all the ‘straight’ killers.”
They come from a much larger population. I wonder if anyone has compiled rates statistics and if they corroborate what some recent incidents seem to be indicating.

Car rushes Vatican gate, is fired on by gendarmes; driver apprehended after reaching courtyard [More]
The Vatican…? Guns…?
Perhaps revisiting the hypocrisy of calling for citizen disarmament from behind the protection of the armed-to-the-teeth Swiss Guard is in order.
‘Let’s call it what it is: stupidity.’ Driver mad someone honked at him opens fire on former officer [More]
Let’s call it what it is: Attempted murder. He could have ended the life of another human being.

According to DPD, the firearms were wrapped with graphics advertising “We Buy Guns” and have not been recovered. The thief only had to break a window to get into the truck and grab the guns. [More]
Am I wrong to wonder if we’ve heard the last of what really went down here, and that it involved more than industrial-grade stupidity?

The groups involved say arrests and prosecutions are not the answer. Instead, the groups will work with the public to offer help paying rent, finding jobs, and other basic needs.[More]
Yes, further absolve them of the responsibilities of citizenship as bribes to not conduct themselves like psychopathic animals– we oughta see those homicide numbers plummet!
Those expectations don’t strike anyone as racist…?

Defendants charged with possessing machine gun back on Houston streets [Watch]
If they’re that trustworthy, what’s the problem with them having machine guns?

“Youths” are just randomly walking into people’s houses for TikTok fame. [More]
I don’t know where this was taken (UK?), but I have to assume in a place where the assumption is homeowners are not armed.
I’ll bet a parody video showing a justified response would get the poster canceled off more than just social media.
