Notes from the Resistance
Prime Minister Anthony Albanese said the responding officer who took down Cauchi was “certainly a hero” whose actions had saved many more lives. The officer was identified as Inspector Amy Scott. [More]
And how many lives were lost because Amy was the “Only One” with a gun?

Speaking of state institutions with compulsory attendance, it’s funny how “we” spend billions on sprinkler and alarm systems for schools where there was only one civilian death from 2014-2018 in the whole country, but Democrats and teacher’s union Marxist erupt in screaming fits if you mention the one thing that could make them less attractive targets.

I’ve talked before about Academia.edu and its repository of gun “studies,” primarily to marvel that research papers would cite someone who never let school get in the way of his education. Anyway, I get daily email update notifications of uploaded papers, and they just did one from 2020 titled “Evaluating the Impact of Gun Involved Violence Elimination (GIVE) Initiative within the City of Rochester.”
Me, my eyes glaze over with eggheadspeak and charts (sorry, Dr. Lott, the ADD kicks in and I go into daydream mode), so I always skip to the conclusion, where we find, totally unsurprisingly (and I could have saved this guy a lot of work and just told him) “call-in meetings, custom notification, and GIVE orientation meetings” don’t address the real problem of Democrat collectivist policies creating a crime culture petri dish.
He admits as much, though tries to save face and convince his evaluators he’s still a team player:
While this quasi-experiment might not have been definitive in answering the question of if the program had a particular influence on gun violence incidents based on strategies and activities implemented, the evidence still leads to possible benefits of the GIVE initiative within the city of Rochester.
Homicides dropping from 73 to 57 in one year do not a trend make, and unless and until the whole elephant in the room is addressed, claiming credit for fluctuations is a game played by fools and frauds.

Yeah, a “typographical error”… somebody accidentally hit the wrong keys five times.
I was living in L.A. at the time of the whole $h!+show and had my weekend plans delayed by the Bronco chase.
It was a Friday night, and done with work we had a 200 mile drive to get up to a mountain cabin up the road from Kernville for the weekend. My wife and I had the van packed and were getting ready to load the cubs and head out when the phone rang– it was my older brother in Ohio who told me to turn on the TV.
There it was, heading up and blocking the 405, the freeway we had to take to head north. There was nothing to do but watch events unfold and wait for things to clear out.
When we finally did we could see the helicopters circling in the sky above his Brentwood digs as we headed up the freeway with four hours still to go…

Now maybe we can ramp up that “gun violence” and REALLY create a demand to ban “assault weapons”!
Good thing this has nothing to do with that “single issue.” And I have that on good authority.

Surveillance video from Colorado demonstrates how a 10-year-old nonverbal autistic kid is treated by a teaching aid in a society succumbing to savagery… After Jones was arrested this month, the Littleton Public Schools released a statement, saying Jones was hired in August after ‘satisfactory reference checks and after passing a thorough background check’.

I’d call her a beast and speculate on public reaction if races were reversed, but I don’t want Democrats to think ill of me.

A former Vermont trooper accused of stealing a $14,000 Rolex watch and other valuable items from the evidence locker will avoid prison under a plea deal reached Friday. “Your honor, words cannot describe the regret and remorse I feel in my heart,” Giancarlo DiGenova told a judge in court Friday.

Regrets that he got caught, POS scumbag…
