Salt Lake City high schools will begin staffing weapon detectors after fall break. But some parents and a few Salt Lake City School Board members worry the technology may have an outsized impact on students of color. [More]

I note none of the objections are centered on the Fourth Amendment and teaching young people that their privacy is sacrosanct and only to be abridged after a person receiving full due process has demonstrated he abused his right by harming the rights of others. And since their attendance is compulsory, perhaps a mention of supposed Fifth Amendment protections against self-incrimination would be in order.

And if Bayyd is emotionally exhausted and requires two days of prep time to face TSA, well, that seems kind of like a red flag on mental stability right there.

Reports of Gun Smuggling to Mexico Recalls Fast and Furious Gunwalking Plot

The intent here appears to be to once more blame “lax American gun laws” for Mexican cartel carnage and to assist in the deception… [More]

Stop me if you’ve heard this one before.

During the tryst, he posed with what he claimed was a black ‘airgun,’” [further identified in a footnote as a] “PT-80 Semi-Auto .177 Cal. CO2 Pellet Pistol 8 shot magazine from GAMO.”

Something tells me closing the boyfriend loophole isn’t gonna cut it.

The Takeaway

According to the bulletin, citing law enforcement, Card recently reported mental health issues, which included hearing voices and threats to shoot up the National Guard base in Maine. The person of interest was allegedly committed to a mental health facility for two weeks during the summer of 2023. [More]

So who decided someone this abnormally dangerously disturbed was safe to unleash on the rest of us after two weeks?
