We’re the Only Ones Unmasking Enough

Police say they’re having trouble identifying suspects who target stores because they’re wearing masks. They are now urging store owners to be proactive in the crime fighting effort. “We are asking the businesses to make this a condition of entry, that people when they come in, they show their face, they should identify themselves,” NYPD Chief of Department Jeffrey Maddrey said.

So do we listen to Dr. Fauci or to NYPD “Only Ones”?

Bronx bodega owner Francisco Marte is no stranger to crime. “I’ve been myself, shot three times,” he said. But he says this latest guidance from the NYPD puts business owners in a bad spot. “We don’t have a weapon to defend ourselves,” Marte said.

I think I see a solution, Francisco.

Good thing the brave property liberators exercising their right to steal by beating the old woman within an inch of her life weren’t acting on Asian hate since disadvantaged victims of systemic racism can’t be racist. I can’t begin to tell you how many of my friends and family flaunt their discriminatory power and white privilege by driving late-model Mercedes…

It’s Under Control

St. Louis suspect seen calmly loading gun, shooting homeless man execution style in broad daylight [More]

No worries.

The St. Louis Police Chief is meeting with clergy to “talk about crime” and “the St. Louis safety committee worked with the city police … to spread awareness about gun safety.”

Throw in a tax-funded youth mentoring program or two, and problem solved!

How to Make a Monster

Teacher confiscates student’s Nintendo Switch during class. Student then attacks her, kicking and punching her, leaving her unconscious. [More]

Take a wholly undisciplined mental defective and drill into him from the start that he’s a systemic victim and that anyone not immediately surrendering whatever he feels entitled to is disrespecting him, and what other result does anyone expect?

I don’t suppose suggesting that being immersed for their formative years in unnatural woke school indoctrination could have an impact on weak minds that snap and go on killing sprees would be received well by the folks who say the answer is citizen disarmament…?

Or would anyone inquiring be wished dead?

Because Correlation Equals Causation

Gun licensing and permit-to-purchase legislation, even just for handguns, have been effective, too, Abt said. With those laws, “we have good evidence to show reduced gun violence across the board,” Abt said. [More]

Prove it.

Be prepared to show how either of those substantially affects criminal decisions and impacts a black market in any way.

The Moscow Horror

“This is a healing step and removes the physical structure where the crime that shook our community was committed,” Green wrote. [More]

Don’t be surprised to note our finest minds in “progressive” academia are steeped in medieval thinking.

Haven’t we established that Western thought and science are racist?

Funny thing– guess what’s still standing and lived in.

Meanwhile, Across the Pond…

THIS is the sub-machine gun seized in Bradford that a trial has been told was manufactured using a 3D printer. [More]

Majeeb,” eh?

And “imprinted on the plastic is an image of an arm holding a curved sword with what appears to be blood dripping from the sword”…?

Sounds like they have a bigger problem than a gun

On a tangentially-related note, this blog comes highly recommended. I haven’t had time to see if I agree, so I leave that to you who do.

Celebrate Good Times, Come On

Five shot, 2 dead after celebration of life event in Minnesota [More]

Check.

And just to add context:

This marks the second shooting in St. Paul in the past two days. On Friday evening, three teen boys were wounded in a drive-by shooting during a funeral reception for a 15-year-old boy who had been fatally stabbed at a St. Paul high school earlier this month.

If only they would disarm you and me…

A Crash Course in Politics

North Carolina House of Representatives Speaker Tim Moore, another state congressman, and Moore’s security were driving back to the state capital from an event when a vehicle repeatedly rammed into the back of them, the speaker’s spokeswoman said Thursday. [More]

Coincidentally, with quotation marks, if you like, this was the day after the House voted to repeal handgun purchase permits. In any case, it’s fair to question if this was garden variety ‘roid rage or if he was targeted

Check out the cheesy excuse Rep. Michael Wray gave for voting against the bill he originally sponsored– no doubt his earlier feigned support was to sucker the Fudds at election time. What a weasel.

Ultimately, there is no such thing as a “pro-gun Democrat.” Besides, it’s never been about guns anyway.

Background Checks, Genuine Reason, Licensing, Registration…

The couple had been off on a visit to Palawan and were staying in Makati, a district in the capital region of Manila, on Feb. 19 when a pair of robbers on a motorcycle stopped them and held them at gunpoint. [More]

But…but…but commonsense

In Defense of Harvey Weinstein

Harvey Weinstein has been sentenced to 16 years, effectively ensuring the former Hollywood mogul and convicted rapist will spend the rest of his life behind bars. [More]

Speaking of wishing he wasn’t alive

As much as my inner Nelson Muntz wants to point and laugh, there’s a bigger issue here that threatens all– an unproven allegation from an unnamed witness should not be enough to do this to anyone.

Show trials are the stuff of tyranny.

Besides, it’s not like plenty of famous “stars” much of America takes its political cues from didn’t get their willing start on the Hollywood casting couch, and like that hasn’t been a tradition.

My guess is if you took a look at “Jane Doe #1,” you’d find plenty of notches on that crotch.
