‘Looters Meeting Shooters’ Could Spread Hurricane Milton’s Destruction

Florida’s “stand your ground” provisions won’t give them a pass from prosecution if there’s a question of legality, or if a Democrat DA decides there’s ginned up anger they can exploit. [More]

But when it’s all said and done, “I’d rather be judged by 12 than carried by six” applies.

An Incomplete Account

“He knocked on the door, yelled, and announced himself, ‘Hey, I’m looking for somebody to help me remove this stuff. I’m willing to pay!’” Treadway said. [More]

And shooting him “five to six times” was covered by castle doctrine?

Bull$h!+.

FAFO

“He did not deserve to die this way. It’s such a tragedy that my husband was murdered in cold blood,” she said, though it remained unclear if she had seen the video of the shooting. [More]

That Took a Lot of Chutzpah

Survey for North American Jews: How are you defending yourself from antisemitic attacks? [More]

I took the damn thing to see what the results would look like if I answered like one of the 70% and all it did at the end was present ways to share it on social media with no evaluation. So work for him, then help him publicize himself, and get nothing but used.

Way to reinforce a stereotype, schmuck.
