We’re the Only Ones Ride Sharing Enough

Nelson drove the GOV, that he agreed to use only for HSI duty purposes, while working for Amazon, Uber, and Lyft during time periods he was supposed to be working for HSI. [More]

Hey, he didn’t violate policy, did he?

I had a job that required a lot of driving a company car once. I couldn’t have gotten away with this for two days. What does it say about the effectiveness of a “Homeland Security” agency that lets it go on for almost two years?

A Diller, a Dollar, A Ten o’Clock Scholar

Professors argue K-12 science lessons should prompt activism… Grapin is an assistant professor in the Department of Teaching and Learning and Lee is a professor in the Steinhardt School of Culture, Education, and Human Development. [More]

So neither of them are, you know, scientists…

Thank goodness! Then they’d be racists!

Maybe Nothing but Just to be Safe…

Nearly three dozen journalists at a broad range of major publications have been targeted by a far-right group that maintains a Deep Web database listing the personal information of people who threaten their views. This group specializes in encouraging others to harass those targeted by their ire, and has claimed responsibility for dozens of bomb threats and “swatting” incidents, where police are tricked into visiting potentially deadly force on the target’s address.

I call this four-year-old post to your attention because as part of my efforts to see how the work is propagating, I got a Google alert that made me take notice.

I don’t normally post on Sundays. This is my time for behind-the-scenes sausage-making, and I’ve just finished one article, prepped the blog for tomorrow’s posts based on weekend emails, and was working on a second column when this came across the transom.

Trying to access the link produced a malicious website warning, so I did not proceed.

Who knows what is going on here? But that it comes on the heels of one of my sources telling his lawyer to contact me if anything happens to him raises some flags.

And for the umpteenth time, Nazis were and are leftists. And there’s no telling who is really behind this, besides despicable cowards, or what “this” really is.

Nevada Considers Bill to Allow Foreign Citizens as Police Officers

The thought of a foreigner doing it seems intolerable. What could go wrong with our cities employing what amounts to latter-day Hessian mercenaries, with incentives to follow orders above all else, especially since rocking the boat or blowing the whistle could jeopardize more than their jobs, but also their eligibility to remain in this country?

Back the blue…helmets?

Underpants Gnome Security

“[Security guards] are not there to protect the product,” said Joseph Stein, director of asset protection solutions for Walgreen, during the Manhattan Chamber of Commerce “Anti-Crime Summit” on Thursday. “They are there to de-escalate [a situation] and to protect the customer and the employees,” he added. [More]

I remember that episode!

Phase One: Unarmed Guards

Phase Two: ?

Phase Three: Protection!

The Family that Slays Together Stays Together

Pennsylvania police say family of three found dead in their backyard had a murder-suicide pact, daughter had posted bizarre videos online [More]

About as good a reason to disarm you and me as I’ve seen…

I couldn’t watch the entire video, or rather, I didn’t want to. There was no point.

Meanwhile, Over in Al Capone’s Vault…

A “real reporter.”

Rivera, a gun owner, was illustrating that the Second Amendment didn’t cover modern firearms capable of mass killings when the amendment was ratified in 1791. And that AR-15-style rifles go far beyond self-defense. [More]

Ah, the long-debunked “The Founders could have never imagined” bullsh!+.

Figures this moron would be spreading it.

I recall writing an Examiner article years back where a guy was prosecuted for having a muzzleloader in New York City. I can’t find it now and don’t recall the details, but it would be funny if Geraldo incriminated himself.

How he got it in the studio is another question.

And figures, HuffPo would think he won the argument.

For the Children

U.S. Senate Democrats call for probe into ‘JR-15’ child-size rifle [More]

Because “commonsense gun safety” demands young people be denied development-appropriate training and remain utterly ignorant if a firearm is present.

Every one of the scumbag politicians in that photo is an opportunistic collectivist traitor and whore.

A Billion Here, a Billion There…

Senator Cory Booker was questioned by viewers after claiming to have witnessed more deaths from gun violence in his lifetime than “all of our wars combined.” Booker made the specious claims during an appearance with “Morning Joe” on MSNBC. [More]

And “A-rated” Joe Scarborough didn’t correct him?
