Notes from the Resistance
Dad charged with killing his 14-year-old daughter’s rapist now running for sheriff: ‘It’s about restoring trust’ [More]
While I can sympathize:
A. He’s a prohibited person until he can get charges dismissed and would be a sheriff who can’t have a gun and is likely to go to prison.
and
B. I have to put my trust in respecting due process, not in giving enforcement powers to a man who has already proven he would deny it.

Abigail Spanberger has consistently aligned herself against law enforcement. For the PBA to throw its support behind her is not only baffling — it is reckless, tone-deaf, and dangerous. [More]
That’s shallow thinking, to believe the primary function of the union is to protect its members. The primary function is to advance subversion, and when it comes to that, it’s understood by the commissars that their individual “causes” will take a back seat to that.

Sen. Johnson introduces legislation to fix serious problems in Ohio… SB 278 seeks to add teeth to the law by giving individuals the power to seek punitive damages against cities that pass gun control measures… SB 279 would make it illegal for a business, state agency, or political subdivision from preventing an off-duty law enforcement officer from carrying a firearm. [More]
So those who would impose new laws on us willfully violate what’s already on the books with impunity? Yeah, punishing Democrats would be nice. Too bad it’s not the politicians themselves who have to pay but the poor tax slobs they already overburden.
As for off-duty cops, yeah, I know, it’s another carve out for “Only Ones,” but like I said in my Firearms News report exposing the illegal rule at Youngstown State’s stadium and citing existing Ohio Revised Code:
[T]he issue here is YSU officials do not have authority to override state preemption on gun laws and impose local prohibitions.
So, basically, we’re talking two new laws to enforce two existing laws.
And here you thought government was ludicrously overblown, redundant, and wasteful…
Blue city street takeover suspects torched police cruiser in ‘hell-bent’ attack on cops: union chief [More]
‘Takeover” = conquest. Temporary, for now.
In other words, Democrat cities can’t only not protect you, the Only Ones can’t protect themselves and they won’t allow you to protect yourself.
I wonder what Sam Adams and John Hancock would have had to say about that.
Looking around for more information on Boston lawlessness, I found a hypocritical excuse for a projected homicide increase:
…small increases in homicides look large in percentage terms
What have I been saying about the grabbers using rates to try and paint low population red states with concentrations of blue as more violent? A few incidents within a smaller overall population will yield a higher RATE than many incidents within a larger population.
Luigi Mangione’s lawyers seek a dismissal of federal charges in CEO killing [More]
Was he required to be read his rights at the time he started incriminating himself? Did exigent circumstances at the time of his arrest preclude the need for a warrant?
If this guy walks because basic arrest protocols weren’t followed, who should the forehead-slapping outrage be directed against?
And what does all of this say about Democrat women that Orwell didn’t already figure out?

Beyond Realengo and Columbine. An Overview about Violence Caused by firearms in Brazil and in the United States [More]
All by their own selves, right, Fabiola, you moron?
Tell me again about firearms controlled by the government in Brazil.
After being taken into custody, the sheriff posted a lengthy message on his Facebook page, invoked the names of Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. and Rosa Parks, and called on his supporters to “remain resilient.” [More]
Yeah, remember how they used to deprive people of rights, and retaliate and tamper against witnesses under color of authority and force of arms all the time? Doesn’t anybody appreciate civil rights activism any more?

A Washington judge issued a TRO that, among other restraints, prohibited this Montana guy from possessing firearms. The TRO was communicated to the town where the Montana guy lives and the local police department enforced the TRO by confiscating all of this Montana guy’s firearms. Done. Because this guy had not been to Washington in three decades and because the accusing girlfriend recanted her story of threat, the judge reviewing the TRO dismissed it. However, this Montana victim still cannot get his firearms returned. [More]
It would help if we had names of all involved. Shame on those Montana “Only Ones.”
Note Seattle cops won’t help ICE enforce immigration law, but Montana cops will enforce Washington diktats. F_n’ jackboots.
This is why Oath Keepers’ “Orders We Will Not Obey” were so important, and why tyrants feared it and smeared it, to where it’s unlikely to be resurrected in any substantive form.
You really had something, Stewart. And you blew it.

Woke Suburban Chicago Police Chief Threatens to Demolish Fence Protecting ICE Facility [More]
Can we do that to his facility, or is that a privilege reserve for “Only Ones”?
Just looked at that town’s Facebook page. What a mess Democrats make of every place they rule.

Retired deputy arrested for DUI while experiencing diabetic crisis in TN [More]
You know you have the condition. You recognize the onset of symptoms, know that driving while so impaired endangers the public, and know what to do to treat yourself and regain balance.
Whose responsibility is it to have the means to do that?
Consider yourself lucky you weren’t a “civilian” having a seizure.

Cardinal Mooney posted an information sheet on Facebook detailing prohibited behaviors and items. Among them are “Weapons of any kind, including off-duty law enforcement, weapons, pipes, knives or chains.” [More]
It’s not so much a matter of sticking up for “Only Ones” exclusivity as one of not allowing local entities to undermine preemption and overrule state law.
Portland PD Arrest Conservative Journalist Nick Sortor After Anti-ICE Clashes – Sortor said the night before that he felt the “Portland PD would arrest him if he tried to defend himself.” [More]
Just carrying on a tradition.

A Texas sheriff arrested by his own deputies and booked into his own jail in August after accusations of harassing female employees and retaliating against whistleblowers now faces a third charge of aggravated perjury, though a judge has ruled he may return to work under strict conditions while awaiting trial next year. [More]
How’d you like to go in for your employee review with that boss?

DLOs are sworn police officers, though they act in the role of a liaison and “cannot get involved in enforcement action,” according to the release. [More]
A @SecretService Uniformed Division officer allegedly fell asleep on the job — in full public view — while providing security at the United Nations General Assembly… The same officer, an overweight African American man, also has been accused of leaving his semi-automatic rifle (what appears to be a SR16) unattended while taking a bathroom break from his security duties… [More]
In spite of working twice as hard as his white counterparts…?
