Scare Tactics

The man who was fatally shot by police after entering a Target store in Omaha, Nebraska, armed with an AR-15-style rifle had obtained the weapon just four days earlier at a Cabela’s sporting goods store, police said Wednesday. [More]

And aside from putting Cabela’s on the spot with a fact irrelevant to the situation, the purpose of telling us that is…? Did the guy pass the background check we’re told must be made universal or not?

If it had been four years, they’d simply come up with a different avenue of attack.

Not the ‘Only One’?

In a strongly worded letter to ATF Director Steven Dettelbach, obtained and reviewed by DrydenWire.com, Sheriff Waak states that he will not take any enforcement action on this rule change “or allow any federal agent to take action against his citizens.”

“I stand ready to defend the rights of honest, law-abiding residents here in Polk County,” Waak states. [More]

Physically?

There’s an interview I didn’t have 42 minutes to watch here. I can’t promise you he’ll answer that question.

We’re the Only Ones Stripped Enough

A former Tennessee cop who was recently fired over a sex scandal in which she admitted to having sex with several of her work colleagues is reportedly being offered $10,000 to perform at a Nashville strip club. [More]

Based on photos I’ve seen, it seems to me more than one patron would be yelling “Put it on!”

In seriousness, I think they’re exploiting a troubled person who needs help. Not cool.

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? [More]

Back the blue…helmets?

We’re the Only Ones Uninformative Enough

The police chief in the California city where 20 people were shot — 11 fatally — at a ballroom dance hall defended his decision not to warn the public for hours that a killer was on the loose, saying Wednesday he didn’t have enough information to effectively alert residents. [More]

“There’s a tiger on the loose, chief!”

“Bengal or Siberian…?”

As the Dam Breaks

“Real reporters” gradually discover what we’ve been talking about for days.

  • UK’s Independent: “Video shows police shooting unarmed disabled man”
  • New York Post: “Unarmed ‘disabled’ man wrongly suspected of holding hostage is shot by cops”

Even the local ABC 15 News grudgingly admits “The surveillance footage released by Kloepfer appears to show a conflicting account of the event.” and contains one other bit of happy news:

The State Bureau of Investigations has opened an investigation into the shooting.

They could’ve said something…

Sorry– still nothing on CNN or any of the major papers.

Surprised?

Just let’s not forget where credit is due.

We’re the Only Ones Out of Uniform Enough

NYPD officers caught having sex in car after residents hear screams [More]

Anything you whoop can and will be held against you? Sounds more like they were given a pass, but don’t be surprised if bodycams really were turned on to share the amusement.

If that’s how seriously they take his wedding vows, imagine how they revere their oaths!

We’re the Only Ones Dispossessed Enough

When the deputy got out, police claim the suspects tried to grab his weapon, which was secured in his holster. After a brief struggle, the two ended up with the deputy’s gun and cellphone. The suspects then drove off in the deputy’s car, a 2011 Chevy Cruz. [More]

They can’t even protect themselves yet we’re supposed to believe they can protect us?
