We’re the Only Ones ‘Do as I Say…’ Enough

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.

We’re the Only Ones Stealing Enough

Lawsuit Uncovers the Inside Story of the FBI’s Plans to Take Security Deposit Boxes without Charging Owners with Crimes – Newly released court filing demonstrates how feds planned to take property collectively worth more than $100 million from US Private Vaults’ customers [More]

So who’s in jail over this?

We’re the Only Ones Partially Qualified Enough

Windsor officers sued over traffic stop of Black man protected from some claims, judge rules [More]

Some general rules of thumb that work most of the time and have kept me from being assaulted and kidnapped on more than one occasion: Be the adult on the scene. Don’t argue and resist. By the same token, don’t consent and/or volunteer information. File any resulting complaints when you’re safe.

File This Under ‘WTF?’

Hospital employee arrested after 39 guns, ammo found in office closet [More]

I can’t really find anything about the guy aside from this story, but the bottom line from what’s been reported is he’s facing years in prison, he hasn’t hurt anybody, and if the stuff was his, unless and until he abuses others with it, it’s his birthright to have…

Could be he’s a lunatic. Without due process before disarmament, we can’t legitimately tell.  And New Jersey “Only Ones” aren’t exactly the benchmark to use…

We’re the Only Ones Clamming Up Enough

‘I ended the discussion’: Richmond Police Chief Smith says he will no longer talk about alleged mass shooting plot [More]

That’s unacceptable.

An honest overseeing government would give him the choice to either spill or take the Fifth. An honest media would demand it. As would a  citizenry “guard[ing] with jealous attention the public liberty.”

What does that tell us about Richmond?

What does this?

The Genius That is Phil George

“By adopting this ordinance, the Borough Council will make it clear that our public buildings, such as our schools, our library and our community center, should be free from the dangers of unlicensed, poorly trained or troubled gun owners, while accepting our law enforcement officers who are doing their duty.” [More]

Because everyone’s safer with “Only Ones“!

And speaking of duty…

We’re the Only Ones Specially Trained Enough

In a court filing Thursday, prosecutors say former Rocky Mount Police Sgt. Thomas Robertson used his law enforcement training to block police officers who were trying to protect the Capitol from a mob’s attack on Jan. 6, 2021. [More]

They train you to block police officers?

Or more likely they want to make an example out of him just in case any others are getting ideas on orders not to obey and when it’s appropriate to be a citizen first…?

We’re the Only Ones Safe Enough

Madison County Sheriff Buddy Harwood recently unveiled his plan to put gun safes containing AR-15 rifles in schools so school resource officers can respond faster to a school shooter, rather than standing by and waiting for local police to respond to the scene. [More]

I don’t suppose one in every classroom for the actual “first responders” is in the cards…?

We’re the Only Ones By the Book Enough

‘Thought I Had My Training Gun’: Ex-Officer Charged in Special Officer’s Killing in DC Library [More]

And right before that he must have told “Only Ones” founder Lee Paige to hold his beer.

Urban libraries have to have their own police details? Do they have “patrol rifles“? I remember when a stern old lady going “Shhh!” was enough, back in the days before society became “progressive” and needed all these rules.

The Plot Thickens

“We really don’t know where they got the Dogwood Dell thing. I’m not sure where that came from,” said Sam Simpson, an attorney for Balacarcel, following the Wednesday hearing. “Because they dropped it in a pretty quick manner, we haven’t really gotten to see all the evidence they might have.” [More]

Does this mean the informant is not the “hero” he’s been made out to be? I’m trying to figure out why gun charges would be dropped unless the evidence was illegally obtained, and I haven’t given up on my “Only One trying to get around a warrant” hypothesis.

I don’t suppose anyone in power is interested in coming up with a fix for the real issue here…?

We’re the Only Ones Endangering Enough

Firearms must be transported unloaded and inside a trunk or cargo are of your vehicle. Firearms should be either wrapped, cased or boxed. Magazines and ammunition must be in a separate area of the vehicle (such as the backseat). Firearms must be in working condition. [More]

So how is an elderly widow giving up her late husband’s gun and who knows nothing about them supposed to safely determine all that?

We’re the Only Ones Premium Enough

The Minneapolis Police Department’s “buyback” program allows organizations, sports teams or neighborhoods to buy extra overtime police patrols. But the program has been criticized as inequitable and further stretching the department’s resources at a time when some less wealthy neighborhoods say police are totally unresponsive. [More]

So will the 911 dispatcher tell callers their plan doesn’t cover that because the extra bodies are servicing rich white Democrats?

Or just let them be surprised…?

Flight of Fantasy

Dallas airport shooting: DPD releases police bodycam of suspect who was shot [Watch]

I know we’re supposed to have a justice system with due process and all, but is it really wrong to fantasize about turning her over to the people forced to miss their flights?
