If this doesn’t convince you that you and I should be disarmed, nothing will.
And while we’re at it, let’s hear it for the NFL’s “commonsense gun safety” influence!

Boxes of paper records fill nearly every corridor of the ATF’s National Tracing Center, where agents are struggling to keep up with surging requests from local police. [More]
Still singing the same old song…
What they want, of course, is a national registry database traceable to legal purchasers that will by design exclude the illegal ones. Who but a deplorable hate-filled racist Nazi white supremacist could be against that?

So, if you’re living in a war zone, what kind of weapons do you need again…?

A former Clay County Sheriff’s Department Deputy was arrested Wednesday following accusations of using another individual’s identity on social media. [More]
I’d love to know what they mean by “derogatory comments.”
With that felony charge, it looks like he’ll be going to more than Facebook Jail…
An ex-FedEx driver from Middleboro has been charged in federal court for allegedly stealing packages containing firearms and then selling the guns. [More]

Venegas moved forward and attempted to steal another vehicle near the intersection of Desert Inn and Jones, according to police. The woman driving that car backed away from Venegas who then fired at her vehicle. [More]
That’s pretty damn irredeemable.
A dangerous sociopathic animal like this has shown he can’t be trusted without a custodian. Releasing him should not be a matter of time “served,” it should be a matter of establishing trust through restitution and penitence, things so-called penitentiaries fail miserably at achieving.
If it turns out he’s never ready, that’s tough. What’s the priority here?
Right: Using the results of not doing that as excuses to disarm you and me.

Sorry, I do typos too. It just struck me as funny. [More]
It also strikes me that an “A” grade from Giffords is no indication of what someone who wants to ignore their infringements can do.

The man behind the beating hasn’t been identified in the media, and it’s not clear what kind of criminal charges he’s facing as a result of the incident. [More]
His victim was an old man?
How about attempted murder? (Figures Facebook would try to censor that and Politico would try to qualify it.)

So what about the chronic and habitual lies?

Arizona Gunmen Raid Home While Falsely Claiming to Be U.S. Marshals, Says Sheriff [More]
As I’ve noted before, it wouldn’t hurt to be aware of The Fauxnly Ones Files. You never know when an “I was afraid he might not be a real cop” defense could use some validation that it’s a widespread and frequent enough phenomenon to be a legitimate concern.

If anything, our criminal justice system is anti-racist, in that blacks are incarcerated at a lower rate than would be explained by their crime rates. [More]
You’d figure antisemitic racists would say something like that.

The “altercation” began inside the gym, on or near basketball courts, and carried out into the gym’s front parking lot where it “escalated,” police said. At least two people pulled out guns and fired multiple shots, police said, citing surveillance video. Several people fled the scene, police said. [More]

A deputy sheriff in Calaveras County was arrested last month for allegedly being an addict in possession of a firearm… Ball has a history of alcohol and opiate abuse, investigators say, adding that he’d recently relapsed. [More]
So they knew he was an out-of-control armed junkie who by law is not allowed to have a gun? And turned him loose on the rest of us?
The sheriff is saying “investigators discovered…” about multiple rehab attempts, but the way this is carefully worded avoids the question of if they were in the dark about his condition from the outset.
Authorities are in a standoff with an armed suspect who tried to enter the FBI’s Cincinnati office [More]
It’s too early to assume anything. We’ll see if he fits any narrative-exploitable profile. If I had to bet I’d say he won’t. And if they do try to tie him in with heightened “anti-FBI rhetoric” by “conservatives,” there’s nothing being said that they don’t own.

A former Boston Public Schools academic dean who led a double life as a member of the Latin Kings gang and shot a student pleaded guilty to racketeering charges Tuesday, the U.S. District Attorney for Massachusetts announced. [More]

My wife is a free lance journalist and has a journslist [sic] friend in MSM that gives her access to their aggregate feed where all this stuff daily flows. She sets up searches for me in that. [More]
I’d love to believe your stats, pal, I really would, but you’re going to have to be more specific than that. I also wish we were living in a society where there is no need to wonder if you’re just trolling to see who bites and spreads fake stats. Because, like I said, I’d love to believe this.
