Notes from the Resistance
“The allegations against Porter include claims that she dumped hot potatoes on her then-husband’s head and smashed a glass that led to him being cut by flying shards.” [More]
We can end potato violence!
Records also showed Mr Eaton had more than half a dozen criminal convictions – and was released from jail just four days before the alleged rampage. [More]
Any other questions?
The suspect ran off, and the chase ended with Knutson’s vehicle hitting him. [More]
Is that anything like “The gun went off“?

Two men are accused of a committing rash of robberies at several dollar stores and pharmacies in Cleveland and Euclid. According to prosecutors, the men committed six robberies in 12 days. [More]
And I suppose before this “rash” they’d lived the lives of young saints…?
Lester shot Yarl twice — once in the head and once in arm — after the teen mistakenly arrived on his doorstep to pick up his younger brothers who were actually waiting for him at a home about a block away. The charges carry 10 to 30 years behind bars, or life in prison, prosecutors said. [More]
Assuming the story unfolds as expected, and not to offer any excuses for the inexcusable, but what about similar treatment for these guys…?

Forget it, Jake. It’s Chi-Town.

Even with THIS evidence, police still claim mass killer trans shooter Audrey Hale’s motive is ‘unclear’ [More]
And Yul has been absolutely no help…

The problem is, NYPD is a big part of the problem.
And it always has been.

Cherokee Indians Tribal Council Votes for Car/Bodycam Exemption after SWAT Shooting [More]
Bodycam videos? We ain’t got no bodycam videos. We don’t need no bodycam videos. I don’t have to show you any stinking bodycam videos!
“She has had a number of miscarriages and she had a very severe miscarriage – an ectopic pregnancy miscarriage- that was in January of 2022 that resulted in Postpartum depression and that has been a large factor in a number of the events that led up to the unfortunate event on January 6th.” [More]

“Nearly a third of all shoplifting arrests in New York City last year involved just 327 people” [More]
Since the folks who run such urban enclaves assure us diversity is our strength, and vibrancy means embracing other cultures and customs, I wonder how many hands you’d have to cut off to put an abrupt end to this nonsense.

“Professional courtesy,” right?
If they rob your bodega livelihood, God help you if you chase after “teens” armed, which you’re not allowed to do. But if you’re a retired “Only One,” God help them if they accidentally hit your camera with a basketball.

Footage next shows the homeowner and suspect grappling before two more thugs arrive. They eventually pin the homeowner to the ground and start pounding on him. [More]
Sorry, “heroic” is not the first word that comes to mind. Then again, me ‘n “Real Man” never did see eye-to-eye on that.
Compare to the same number of predators when a victim is armed.

According to Asst. Chief Ernest Garcia, four suspects in masks entered the store and started robbing customers at gunpoint. That’s when an armed customer pulled out their weapon and shot at the suspects, Garcia said. Three of the robbery suspects were shot. [More]
This makes it seem like he has a good presence of mind. Let’s hope that extends to what he told police before seeing an attorney. And let’s hope the attorney advises the intent was not to stop a robbery, it was because the gun owner was acting in self-defense.

I’ll be leaving this afternoon for the NRA Annual Meeting in Indianapolis. (Those who caution me not to make public announcements of absences, don’t worry. Elder feral son Uday will be coming over and I’m neither chaining him up nor feeding him.) If you’re going I hope to meet you, assuming you don’t want to punch me out. I’ll be bringing a poll with me that I’ll be doing an article about that should take less than a minute to answer, so I hope I can count on your cooperation.
I’ve got a ton of stuff to do today to get ready, including finishing up an article and maybe drafting a new one if I can get to it. The dandelions here are in full bloom so I also need to take a couple of hours for yard work before the neighbors run me out.
As such, news tips emailed to me that I decide to present here are all going to be linked in this post with no commentary and a mass credit at the bottom. With that in mind, please don’t submit any more from this point on until Monday, and understand that I will not be moderating comments received after I leave until I return.
The following list will be added to as long as I can get to it:

Bay Area crime tech firm ShotSpotter rebrands as stock tanks with new Chicago mayor [More]
What they call it won’t mask the fact that it’s an expensive boondoggle for Democrat cities that want to look like they’re “doing something.”
Maybe along with the “rebranding” they need a new spokesman:

‘Cease fire’: Reverend calls on Boston’s Black community to turn in guns after man shot dead in city [More]
Assuming the answer from those doing the killing is “No,” what’s Plan B after he’s convinced the sheep to bare their throats?
There’s no more obvious example of magical thinking than “gun control.” If this simp’s a community leader, that community’s got some growing up to do.

The alleged Schnucks parking lot shooter was already a wanted man with a reported violent criminal history. [More]
So if they knew that about this beast, how was letting him out not a crime against humanity?

I’ll bet a lot of “prohibited person” exclusions could be overturned with the right case, starting with the “one year” nonsense that has no bearing on proven proclivities for violence.
The Jackson County Prosecutor’s Office said 27-year-old August P. Gildehaus has been charged with first-degree sodomy, sexual exploitation of a minor, four counts of second-degree statutory sodomy, and three counts of second-degree statutory rape. [More]
How would “identifying the gender or other characteristics of the victim” “protect the individual’s identity”? Seems more like they don’t want anyone connecting dots.
