Burying the Lede
…after they made their way across the U.S.-Mexico border… [More]
That to me is the main story.
We know criminals have no respect for the law. What happens when productive citizens lose it?
If it doesn’t protect us, why would it protect anyone? Are they really arrogant enough to make it all about who can amass the most targeted force?

John Adams has left the building.
That’s systemic racism right there– if like me, you consider collectivist policies resulting in generations like this to be racist.
New York, New York, It’s a Wonderful Town!
Girlfriend of thug who was stabbed to death by New York City bodega worker WON’T face charges for knifing him three times because ‘prosecutors say she was defending her beau’ [More]
The poor worker is not so lucky.
And the productive sector not only puts up with it, they vote their collectivist oppressors in.
At least tell me she’ll still be able to get all the abortions she wants…
And tangentially-related:
NYC releases PSA for residents in the event of a nuclear attack [More]
Radioactive flesh-eating zombie apocalypse to follow. People on the other side are going to block off the bridges, right?
Does kinda make you wonder who knows what…

Ask the Experts!
While most experts say comprehensive gun control is still the best solution to mass shootings… [More]
Well, that right there tells me I can’t trust a thing that follows. That and blocking access to what AoL considers “extreme,” blaming “racism” i.e. traditional American culture, and adding in a dash of “equity” collectivism…
Besides, when they emphasize “young men and boys,” how are we supposed to define either?
I don’t suppose beating unforgiving woke culture into young skulls from an early age perverts minds and instills an obsession for exacting revenge against institutions perceived as sources of torment…?
And how are you going to “combat” $h!+ when you don’t even mention the only deterrent proven to stop manufactured monsters in their tracks except to say we need to prohibit that?

Oh Thank Heaven
Two people were killed and three wounded in robberies before dawn Monday at six 7-Eleven stores in Southern California and authorities said they were seeking the same lone gunman in at least three of the crimes. [More]
Aside from Golden State disarmament edicts, what in the world made him think he’d be able to get away with this?
[Via Remarks]
Focused on the Gun
Both men are only charged with possession of a firearm as a non-U.S. citizens — but nothing related to plotting a mass shooting. [More]
Sounds like the perfect analogy for all “gun control” laws…
Now that the “Only Ones” narrative appears to be unraveling, is it out of line to hope nobody hangs himself?

It’s the Same Old Story
Chicago’s 4th of July weekend death toll surpassed the Highland Park shooting. ‘I thought there would be more outcry,’ mother says [More]
Why? Was there something out of the ordinary?

At least 19 dead in pair of mass shootings in South Africa, police confirm [More]
Thank goodness in South Africa it’s illegal to use a gun in self-defense!

Why did Independence Day event at Dogwood Dell go on as planned? Stoney, experts weigh in [More]
You incompetents got lucky when a citizen had to alert you to a situation ultimately created by government design in the first place.
UPDATE
The Richmond Police Department has refused to share crucial evidence to verify its claim that a mass shooting was planned on Independence Day. The arrests made in connection to the reported plot have turned into an international incident. [More]
I think it would be hysterical if the anonymous “hero snitch” turned out to be an “Only One” who wanted to fast-track his way around a warrant.

New York, New York, It’s a Wonderful Town
Man jailed for murder by left-wing DA for stabbing attacker in self-defense [More]
You ever get the feeling the wrong people are on trial?
UPDATE
GoFundMe deletes page for NYC bodega clerk who fatally stabbed attacker [More]
I have to tell ya, Curtis Wells using that platform concerned me because GoFundMe’s self-created woke rep discourages people who don’t want to give them their cut from contributing. I need to find out if he has a fund set up that accepts contributions another way.

More information has (unsurprisingly) come to light:

Collateral Damage: Arizona drug dealers becoming arms dealers online [Watch]
Anybody know what the legal and jurisdictional provisions with ATF are for the cop to retain possession of an illegally modified gun to fire and hand off to the reporter?
The other thought that strikes: You could give such a gun to me and anyone in my circle of friends and relatives and there would be zero chance of us doing anything predatory with it.
The final thought that strikes: I’d like to see somebody try that mod with a .45 🙂

The Gun’s Fault
Officers, who also worked with the FBI on the case, arrested and charged Julio Alvarado-Dubon with being a non-U.S. citizen in possession of a firearm on Friday. A second suspect, Rolman Balacarcel, was surveilled by police throughout the holiday weekend and arrested and charged on the same count on Tuesday. [More]
I wonder if it’s the same one.
If that isn’t a good reason to agree with Richmond Mayor Stoney, blame the problem on common defense/”security of a free State” firearms, and ban your birthright, I don’t know what is.

We’re the Only Ones Unresponsive Enough

Crimonology 101
Interviewed by cops twice in 2019 after he threatened to ‘kill everyone’ and had 16 knives, dagger and sword confiscated – but wasn’t arrested [More]
Surprise, surprise, surprise!
So much for nobody, including the family, knowing. Which makes Uncle Paul either a liar or someone not close to the family at all trying to publicly distance himself.
And:
July 4 shooting: Social media companies a ‘big part’ of shooting, not sharing content with police, says ex-cop [More]
The guy is coming from an “Only Ones” mindset, so it figures that would be his top concern.
Even more objectionable in the long run: Doing this in all such cases removes a major source of information with context from being investigated, forcing us to rely on an official government narrative shaped by what it wants us to know and doesn’t want us to know for reasons it won’t share because they conflict with the tightening of the grip.
UPDATES
- This lets leftist gaslighters get away with leaping to illusions like this:
Robert ‘Bobby’ Crimo III confirmed to be raging Trump supporter
- When the reality is shaping up to be more like this:
BREAKING EXCLUSIVE: Information Uncovered Overnight Shows Highland Park Shooter, Bobby Crimo, Is Tied to Socialists, Progressives, Antifa and the Occult
We can’t tell if the means to check has been deleted.
- And just frickin’ lovely:
Father of Highland Park shooting suspect sponsored son’s firearm ownership card despite past violent threats
Rod Waive
Shooting, break-ins and robbery occur around T-Mobile Center after concert – As they were leaving the show, many concert-goers and others downtown found out their cars had been broken into. As many as 100 cars were broken into. [More]
So basically people going to and from had to run the gantlet unarmed, and God forbid if they left their guns in their cars due to Center “security” policy:
All weapons must be returned to your vehicle as T-Mobile Center does not check in weapons.
