They’re Always After Me Lucky Charms

A young man who stabbed and killed an intruder who had attacked him in his home in the middle of the night has been jailed for three-and-a-half years by the Central Criminal Court. Mr Justice Paul McDermott said Dean Kerrie, 21, was entitled to use force in defence of himself, his family and his home, but the force he used was “grossly” excessive given that the victim, Jack Power, was unarmed.

Kinda makes you want to see someone break into Mr Justice Paul McDermott’s house at night and introduce him to some facts of life.

Let’s ask Michaleen Flynn what he thinks of all this:

There Oughta be a Law!

Missouri senator says laws should have already been in place to prevent shooting at CVPA [More]

What, like the law against shooting people?

No “commonsense gun safety law” will ever be enough for this Marxist tool.

That’s because none of them address the real problem which keeps incompetent rabble-rousing bellyachers like her in office.

A Mugged Liberal

Calif. woman recalls attack, rape by homeless man — released from jail hours earlier [More]

Sorry, Marissa, but I look at all your Facebook “likes”/influencers like Bernie Sanders, SNN, George Takei, the Huffington Post, and Rachel Maddow, and I’m not seeing anyone offering any solutions that could have helped you or will stop this from happening to someone else.

The Red Queen

Hochul touts “red flag” gun seizures as polls show crime top concern for New Yorkers [More]

It’s instructive how she minimizes concerns over pandering to a key Democrat constituent bloc by turning a blind eye to effectively addressing real crime, opting instead to go after citizens who have not been tried for or convicted of anything.

What Was Their First Clue That He Might Be a Problem?

The 30-year-old man charged with capital murder in the fatal shooting of two Dallas hospital employees was on parole and had been given permission to be at the medical facility for the birth of a child, a Texas prison official said [More]

Brought to you by government!

Dare I ask about young Nestor’s “legal” status without fear of being pegged as a xenophobe?

What’s this?

A Gun Sense Candidate

A Democrat Nevada state Senator, Pat Spearman, who is running for North Las Vegas Mayor, is in the spotlight speaking about gun violence. This is because Spearman’s son, whom she adopted, shot her nephew… [More]

And note the passive voice deflection:

It’s with a heavy heart that my family is impacted by gun violence.

Victims all! Sounds like just the person to dictate my family’s gun rules! And yours…

There’s a Lesson in Here Somewhere

Video: Felon’s Girlfriend Takes The Gun And Kills An Off-Duty Firefighter Who Protects A Female Cashier From Getting Attacked By The Perp – No Charges Filed [More]

If the firefighter been armed things could have turned out much differently, especially if the deterrent effect resolved things without a shot being fired.

Alternatively, if he’d emerged victorious, who thinks he’d just be allowed to walk?

Not So Tough Customers

Two suspects were shot and killed in a jewelry store robbery Friday after the owner of the jewelry store opened fire, according to Orlando police. [More]

I never get tired of hearing about someone else giving the old Lance Thomas response! It sure beats going to Jared or Kays.

I wonder how soon until a sympathy-oozing reporterette interviews outraged family members complaining that the jeweler had no cause to have a gun and should have let the police they want to defund handle it.

I do wonder about the mall’s weapons policy and have not been able to find it.
