Notes from the Resistance
“It literally turns dreamers into defenders,” said Albuquerque Mayor Tim Keller [More]
In other words, illegal foreign nationals will be officially empowered to disarm citizens on American soil. All in the name of addressing crime committed by illegal foreign nationals.
Who needs blue helmets, right, Tim?

As always, be aware that this is a pervasive phenomenon. You never know when you might need an “I did not believe he was a real cop” defense, so it won’t hurt to have plenty of examples of real threats to point to.

Civilians with permits stopped the attacks more frequently and faced a lower risk of being killed or injured than police. [More]
My guess would be the relevance of mentioning permits is that statistically, there may be more armed citizens with them in the types of areas where “active shootings” are more prevalent, especially since almost half the states don’t “allow” permitless carry. True, there’s no doubt an effect from the extra required training steps an average permit holder undergoes over permitless carriers, but I don’t think the data exists to quantify a difference. Many hardcore 2A activists who are practiced simply don’t believe in permits.

“I told him he could take my gun and let me secure my dog,” said Phillips. “He didn’t listen. I had my hands up. I called them for help, and they came in hot, like I was the threat.” [More]
When you realize that when police show up they consider themselves the “Only Ones,” she was. So, of course he was cleared, bullet wond in her leg notwithstanding.
Officer safety, you see.
Former LAPD officer pleads guilty to murder in DUI crash that killed family of 3 [More]
You know, the one who’d just posted a “Don’t Drink and Drive” video before his actions burned these people to death…
And you tell me how, initially, the official story was that there were “insufficient grounds to file charges.”
2017 to now… Draw your own conclusion.

Kent, who is a former Green Beret, stated in no uncertain terms that Trump’s intelligence community is actively investigating the FBI’s possible role in orchestrating the chaos on January 6th. [More]
“No uncertain terms” and “possible” kind of cancel each other out.
Enough hyperbole. If there evidence is there, find it and use it in a court of law.

Former Walker County Sheriff’s lieutenant pleads guilty to theft… Bradley admitted to pocketing funds between 2018 and 2022 and must repay over $70,000 to Walker County.[More]
What, no charges against a criminally negligent/malfeasant sheriff whose incompetence and/or deliberate indifference let her get away with it for years…?
Care to add your congratulations…? 2018…? Looks like she didn’t waste any time figuring out the vulnerabilities and getting started…
I don’t suppose standardized sign-off procedures and audits have been put in place, not just in Walker County but throughout the state…?
Officers opened fire within about 12 seconds of getting out of their patrol cars and made no apparent effort to de-escalate the situation. “Everybody was trying to tell the police, no, no,” Vazquez said. “Those four officers didn’t care. They didn’t ask what was happening, what was the situation.”“How’s he going to jump the fence when he can barely walk?” she said. [More]
Who called 911? A neighbor wouldn’t know of his condition?
Shot nine times. Good job with that “vision” there, chief.
Especially we know your guys have used less than lethal options before in more threatening situations?
Visionary “gun violence” sculpture, there, Pocatello!

Katie Blackwell is assistant chief of operations for the Minneapolis Police Department. She briefly appeared in the film The Fall of Minneapolis (produced by Liz Collin). Based on her appearance in the film and in the related book by Liz, Blackwell brought an ill-advised defamation lawsuit against Liz and Alpha News (I’m a member of the board). [More]

So he says. But cops are allowed to lie. But say the lead investigator was a “good” one- you have no way of knowing that or if he’s a typical “Only One” trying to find something to hang you with. A couple days in jail is nothing compared to what you could get railroaded into. And don’t even try and pull “a few bad apples” around here.
The best advice is still “Don’t talk to the police.” But do tell your attorney EVERYTHING.
Sounds like this kid had a crappy one, because if the DGU really was that cut and dried, a competent lawyer would have gotten his client absolved without gambling with risks…
