We’re the Only Ones Cutting Loose Enough

More NYC Corruption: Police Chief Guilty of Cutting Friend Loose in Gun Case [More]

“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.

Well, This Would Have Been a Stupid Way to Die

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.

Good Guy with a Gun

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.

And Now for Something Completely Different

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:

Unsound Thinking

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:

If Wishes Were Fishes

‘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.

Pot Luck

Another Federal Judge Rejects the DOJ’s Argument That Cannabis Consumers Have No Second Amendment Rights [More]

And then there’s action on the restraining order front…

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.

We’re the Only Ones Statutory Enough

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.

A Continuation of the Original Rebellion

While the FBI has been sending spies into Catholic churches, hunting for “domestic terrorism,” Old Joe Biden’s laughably named “Justice” Department has just offered what Fox News calls a “sweetheart plea deal” to a woman who claims to be a man and who smashed doors, destroyed a statue of the Virgin Mary, assaulted a church staffer, and sprayed graffiti at a Catholic church in Washington state. There isn’t even the pretense of fairness anymore. The double standard is glaring and obvious. [More]

Now there’s someone in need of a good exorcism.

Aberrations in self-imposed psychic prisons of rage are not happy and will never be happy. And they know it.

So do the principalities and powers using them.

Underrepresented Here…

Nearly 20% of the American population has had a family member killed by a gun, including by suicide, and 1 in 6 has witnessed a shooting, a new survey found … For Black adults, the numbers were even higher, attesting to greater gun violence in minority communities. [More]

I need to up my game. I’m gonna be 71 in a month and we’ve had no one. Well, an uncle was killed with an artillery shell, but that was different.

If I don’t want to be hated as racist, I guess I’d better credit my good fortune on white privilege, because if I mention personal conduct and life choices, Little Stevie’s Genocide Xers, Ys and Zs will be Antifaing my fascist @$$…

All That ‘Common Sense’ Just Ignored…

Investigators confirmed the Jeep had been stolen less than 48 hours earlier. They found a stolen AR-style pistol on the backseat and a .357-caliber Glock 32 under the passenger seat. Both weapons had large-capacity magazines. [More]

If only there were some kind of law for people who can’t be trusted with guns…

Until then, they expect you and me to give up ours.

Fascists Attack Hero of Justice and Equity

A St. Louis judge sanctioned St. Louis Circuit Attorney Kim Gardner’s office last week for allegedly withholding evidence in a double-murder case, while allowing the suspect out on bond, amid rising criticism about left-wing prosecutors allowing crime to flourish in major U.S. cities. [More]

And you’ll notice the strategy of those who want things to be this way is to deflect with charges of racism and antisemitism so that people will be afraid to speak the truth.

So It All Boils Down to Negligence, Laziness, and Stupidity

A Newport News grand jury has indicted the mother of the 6-year-old who shot his first grade teacher at Richneck Elementary in January. Deja Taylor has been charged with felony child neglect and misdemeanor recklessly leaving a loaded firearm so as to endanger a child. [More]

Good. Just as if she’d left anything else a child could hurt himself or others with in easy reach.

Stupid ****s like her are the reason the grabbers push “lock up your safety” diktats on the rest of us.

Any bets she’s not a Democrat?
