NYPD Hired Convicted Criminals As Recruitment Inspector Looked the Other Way [More]
Hey, somebody’s gotta make sure the biggest gang’s turf is controlled.

Notes from the Resistance
‘The most dangerous city in Germany’ — Bremen has the most crime and the highest share of migrants of all German states – In Bremen, an incredible 73 percent of suspects are non-Germans [More]
And that’s 73 percent out of a much smaller population… so much for gratitude.
Ordinarily, I’d call on Tommy Lee to handle this, but with the way the Krauts are trying to drag NATO members into Armageddon, the focus ought to be on not letting them start another World War.

Comedian Michael Rapaport mocks NYC mayoral candidate Mamdani as ‘Zohran the moron’ [More]
Yeah, we know…
Speaking of mor… uh… persons with cognitive disabilities:

Six months into Mayor Daniel Lurie’s tenure, San Franciscans are far happier with his performance than they were with former Mayor London Breed’s one year ago, according to a new poll commissioned by the Chronicle. [More]
So, “liberal” Democrat gun prohibitionists are racist and sexist…?
“Leaders THEY Deserve”…

Fateh, of course, means to rule, and that means he intends to disarm those who would rather he didn’t. [More]
Explain how giving characters like this the power to infringe on the right of the people to keep and bear arms helps “secure the Blessings of Liberty to ourselves and our Posterity.”
Charges dropped against more than 120 defendants in Massachusetts because they can’t get an attorney [More]
Hey, an increase in crime plays right into their hands. Wake me when they drop charges against a peaceable gun owner for having an AR-15.
Oh, that’s right– we go broke paying for our own attorneys.

Gun Control Industry Harpies Apoplectic About Trump DOJ’s Active Defense of Second Amendment Rights [More]
I just wish he was consistent.

Stricter Gun Control States Lead in Adolescent Firearm Deaths [More]
Are we dealing with an ice cream sales/rape increase corroboration/collaboration logical fallacy here?
I suspect the common factor here isn’t so much “guns,” but more about “state control” leading to less individual control.

The agent, identified by the media group on Monday as Marc Hendrickson, came across the undercover journalist on a dating app and appeared eager to impress her. First, he invited her to the White House and then sent a photo of his exact location while on the building’s lawn. [More]
Courtship displays can offer fascinating insights into animal behavior…
It figures a self-described “liberal” thinks being associated with the power of the states what attracts females, and based on voting patterns among young, single women, he’s not wrong.
Now let’s see if Romeo still has a job…

According to Kennedy’s plan, which has been promoted as part of a national campaign to “Make America Healthy Again,” wearable devices would track glucose levels, heart rate, activity, sleep, and more for every American. Participation may not be officially mandatory at the outset, but the implications are clear: get on board, or risk becoming a second-class citizen in a society driven by data compliance. [More]
We can start out with lower insurance rate incentives. Then from there we go to treatment approvals. And not just for the private sector, as if there really is one…
Just think of the greater good! Good thing there are no Fourth Amendment or HIPAA considerations…

Woman says SAPD officer ex-boyfriend put AirTag in her vehicle, tracked her in police helicopter – The department declined to discipline Officer Ausencio Mata; sources say investigators were unaware of photos taken from SAPD’s EAGLE helicopter [More]
“It came down to a ‘he said she said’…” Really?
Officers are empower without command-authorized oversight, controls, warrants or approved agreements to do this?
I simply don’t believe that.

“Less than less than one ten-thousandth of a percent of legally owned guns are converted.” [More]
I’m not seeing this as the argument stopper some You Tube “gunfluencers” are claiming. If I were an anti, I’d be asking what the percentages are for semi-auto handguns recovered from street gangsters.
Regardless, the only legitimate arguments are “shall not be infringed,” “every other terrible implement of the soldier, are the birthright of an American,” and “anyone who can’t be trusted with a gun can’t be trusted without a custodian.”

Your job is to be ready—not paranoid, not decked out in gear you saw in a video game—but ready in a real, functional, and sustainable way. [More]
What are the odds?
Pretty good advice. That and be situationally aware, avoid known hot spots, and work on practiced reflexes and will.
“The founder of a violent militia group…” [More]
Really? How many tens of thousands of members were there? What was their violent crime rate? How many have committed shootings, stabbings, and assaults? What orders were given to members to commit those specific acts?
“The reason Oath Keepers is not a Militia is simple — among other considerations, we do not have a command structure, do not assign Militia rank designations or titles… Oath Keepers loves the name ‘Militia,’ but Oath Keepers is not a Militia. We would, however, love to see every State have its Office of the Militia, for we do honor our Oath to the Constitution which requires the Militia. Why else would the SPLC and DHS hate our guts, eh?”
But to think I’ve hosted such violent homegrown terrorists in my home, with my wife and children… And used the good china!
“Real reporter” Sebastian Murdock relieves us of any incentive to read further. It’s not the first time HuffPo has borne false witness.
But yeah, Stewart Rhodes is correct that Donald Trump’s base is upset over the way the administration is dismissing “Epstein files” questions and that could spell trouble.
