Supremely Indifferent

The Supreme Court declined on Monday to take up a case brought to it by a Missouri Republican Senate candidate and his wife, who were seeking review of the professional disciplinary action they faced, as lawyers, for pointing guns at racial justice protestors demonstrating outside their St. Louis home.

So “racial justice protestors” typically do this as they go through private property?

Speaking of Disenfranchising Voters

Californians enacted the law by a statewide referendum with the unambiguous language that the sentence “shall be” imprisonment for at least 25 years and that prosecutors “shall plead and prove all known prior serious or violent felony convictions.” Nonetheless, directly and openly flouting that law, Gascon ordered a blanket policy of refusing to enter the prior convictions into the record.

All that talk about “our democracy” is just that.

The Predator Sanctuary

“…they’re not sure if that person was hit but they did drop their semiautomatic handgun with an extended magazine…” [Watch]

The “real reporter” made sure he got the important part in.  The not-so-important stuff, like who the public dangers were, they left unmentioned.

Surveillance and a police presence no longer deter.  And they’re ginning up demand that “something must be done,” which translates into more “laws” against you, since talking real solutions puts those who do on the fast track for cancellation.

The Perfect Set-Up

So, we have two guys who started their career into the gun control lobbying “lobby”, that work tirelessly to create a whole new class of criminals (gun owners) if we don’t follow the laws they help get enacted, and they previously worked hard to get ACTUAL criminals breaks and treat them as victims themselves. [More]

It’s almost like they’re domestic enemies who want to destroy Western civilization or something…

False Sense of Security

A county jail inmate receiving treatment at an Ohio hospital shot and killed a security guard, pointed the weapon at others and then killed himself in a parking lot, authorities said… Dayton police said inmate Brian Booth, 30, was receiving treatment when he struggled with Darrell Holderman, 78, and took his gun. [More]

Really? And the Sheriff’s Department thought this setup was a swell idea?

It’s Your Funeral

“Lord you can’t even go to a funeral anymore,” a witness said. [More]

Tell me this isn’t the most compelling argument for disarming you and me you’ve ever heard.

Dimming the Lights

Prosecutors said Johnson was intentionally brandishing his weapon at five officers conducting rooftop surveillance, while the defense said he was only using his flashlight to see who was up there. [More]

Maybe he was, but all things considered, it sounds like he’s lucky they didn’t light him up.

Why this is a federal case is another matter altogether.
