Notes from the Resistance
An analysis of twenty years of academic literature found that there is little or no evidence that minorities are mistreated by the criminal justice system when it comes to punishment, despite assertions to the contrary by policymakers, media, and academics. [More]

Am I right?

Angela Ferell-Zaballa, executive director of the gun-grab group Moms Demand Action, told the Advocate, “Extremists often try to muddy the waters by blaming our gun violence crisis on mental health or gender identity, when often people with these lived realities are most likely to be victims of gun violence, rather than perpetrators of it.” [More]
Forget manifestos and delusions! It’s the guns!

Crumbley’s defense attorney, meanwhile, argued that Crumbley had shown signs of severe mental illness years prior to the shooting, and neither his parents nor school officials did anything to help him. They also argued that he has the potential to be rehabilitated, saying he has participated in therapy every day and is taking medication by his own choice. [More]
Sorry, but what he did is so twisted and evil I’d recommend conclusive proof that he can be trusted with a gun before opening that cage.
Michael Sitrick, a renowned Hollywood crisis manager, says New Year’s Day break-in at his Brentwood offices where thieves stole computer servers “has to be a coincidence” [More]
What else could it be?
And why would anyone make anything of Epstein’s “fixer” getting “the Walt Disney Man of the Year Award at the Big Brothers Big Sisters 2008 Rising Stars Benefit Gala”…?
Who better to influence LITTLE brothers and sisters in the ways of Disney family values…?
No coincidence there, either, right?

So much for the “answer” being intrusive and obnoxious security…

A 10-year-old California boy who was shot over the weekend died because the shooter, also said to be 10 years old, angrily opened fire after losing a bicycle race, the victim’s mother said Tuesday… His father, Arkete Davis, 53, was booked on suspicion of possession of a firearm by a felon, criminal storage of a firearm, carrying a stolen loaded firearm in a vehicle, child endangerment and acting as an accessory to a crime after the fact, according to inmate records.

That’s the best argument for disarming you and me I’ve ever heard.
Which doesn’t say much for all the others…

Why’d they cut off the video just when it got to the good part?

If it all goes wrong, with whom will the police side?… As with our military, cops tend to be conservative. Duty, honor and integrity are part of their everyday lives, as are grooming standards. If a cop loses his reputation for integrity, his career is over. [More]
There will be a few, but for every one of these, there are superiors, colleagues, and underlings who kept their mouths shut.

No doubt they have cost/benefit metrics to document how much violence will be prevented…? They don’t? They have no idea? This is simply a bunch of fraudulent and incompetent Democrats poltroons who don’t have a clue taking unearned credit and sticking their snouts in the trough while the lapdog press eats it up and regurgitates it for public consumption?
Hey, at least we’re not Detroit…

Texas AG Paxton: The Biden Administration Is ‘Aiding and Abetting the Cartels’ [More]
Good thing this has nothing to do with that “single issue.” And I have that on good authority.
