We’re the Only Ones Dated Enough

A central issue in Sheriff Smith’s trial is whether she provided concealed carry weapon permits in exchange for donations or other favors. Under questioning from San Francisco Assistant District Attorney Gabriel Markoff, Bechtel said he provided $750,000 to the Sheriff’s Advisory Board and arranged construction crews to make improvements to the Sheriff’s Department shooting range… Bechtel said he, his son, and two other relatives acquired concealed carry permits that were signed by Sheriff Smith.

At least we know from Harpreet Chada that Laurie’s Big Club wasn’t exclusively “white privileged,” but I’d still like to see someone look into other “underrepresentation.”

In answer to an anticipated question, this was a civil trial and one of her defenders says regardless, these are not felonies. And here I was looking forward to Laurie becoming a “prohibited person” if they end up bringing criminal, charges.

Armed Marine Vet Learns that in Anti-Gun Maryland No Good Deed Goes Unpunished

“The victim can be seen on police body-worn cameras telling the police that Mr. Muldrow probably saved his life,” the informational alert concluded. “Many other witnesses on the scene spoke up for Mr. Muldrow’s heroic actions. None of that mattered.” [More]

I interviewed Muldrow for Firearms News to get what happened straight from him.

We’re the Only Ones Wondrous Enough

Think Wonder Woman — Fairfax Co. police test lasso-like restraint [More]

Bringing a rope to a gunfight? And does it work on dogs?

I guess I can see this as being a more humane way if you know you’re dealing with an unarmed person being a danger to himself and others, so I don’t want to completely badmouth the whole idea. I just can’t help recalling instances of drawing from the wrong holster…

And with the comparison, I can’t help recalling Woman Wonder…

We’re the Only Ones Resigned Enough

Santa Clara County Sheriff Laurie Smith informed the Board of Supervisors in this one-line letter that she was leaving office effective Monday. [More]

Maybe if she goes quietly no one will ask any questions about “underrepresentation.”

Too bad. The “real reporters” could have had an “EXCLUSIVE” worth putting in all caps.

We’re the Only Ones Victorious Enough

Nearly a dozen guns taken off Austin streets in Gun Surrender Program [More]

That’s pathetic when you can’t just say “11” and have to blow it up by one.

Nice of the moronic “Only Ones” functionary to admit “buybacks don’t work.”

Besides, “surrender” makes them sound so much more awe-inspiring. And it’s closer to what government has in mind anyway.

We’re the Only Ones Transferring Enough

St. Louis school shooter may have used gun that police confiscated months ago… Officers removed the gun from the home and gave it to a unnamed adult, he said. [More]

Flesh out how they completed the transfer.

UPDATE

The family “worked with our department to transfer that to an adult who could legally possess one,” Sack said. The firearm was ultimately transferred to a third party known to the family. [More]

OK, so can we expect an arrest?

And should we title this “Another Red Flag Success”?

In the Navy, Yes You Can Sail the Seven Seas

Sailor convicted for selling illegal machine guns in Virginia… As a master at arms, he served in the Navy’s law enforcement community… [More]

So he wasn’t “just” a sailor. He was a Naval “Only One.”

I wonder who the snitch is, and if the feds had something on him or if he decided things all on his own.

I also wonder if his lawyer knew about NFRTR “reliability” issues…?

What Was Their First Clue That He Might Be a Problem?

The 30-year-old man charged with capital murder in the fatal shooting of two Dallas hospital employees was on parole and had been given permission to be at the medical facility for the birth of a child, a Texas prison official said [More]

Brought to you by government!

Dare I ask about young Nestor’s “legal” status without fear of being pegged as a xenophobe?

What’s this?
