Email in re “We’re the Only Ones Compacted Enough“:
Whoa! wait a minute! Does anyone want federal (whether ‘compacted’ or not) on your trains? Careful what you ask for. Wrong arrow direction on the solution. Citizens, with deterrent power, are the solution. — Antigone
That would be a good comment to add under the post.
My answer would be of course not and then to show this post should be taken in context to the many times I’ve posted about Metrolink imposing citizen disarmament here and on the old blog and the many times I’ve posted on the category I invented, the “Only Ones.” They have set up conditions where you can’t protect yourself, they won’t protect you, and this deliberate policy guarantees more blood to dance in to demand even more disarmament.
You see, before 1920, Britain’s gun laws were so relaxed they made Texas look effeminate. You could buy a pistol and bullets at the ironmonger’s. But this country, in that period, was not a hellhole of mass shootings and armed bank raids. Is it possible that the USA’s problems with gun crime, or indeed the hideous massacre which took place in Prague the other day, are not caused by the ready availability of guns, but by the ready availability of something else? [More]
This isn’t Monday morning quarterbacking, it’s my very first reaction: Just because lunatics took no precautions doesn’t mean there were no precuations to take. Without knowing what the powder was, the cops should have immediately proned the perps at gunpoint from a distance, simultaneously cleared visitors from the hall to another room for a contamination analysis, and anyone approaching and arresting the suspects should have been in full hazmat gear.
I wonder if these useful idiots will get less time than the J6ers.

That seems to be the prevailing parroted narrative.
If that’s true, it corroborates something everyone enthusiastically counting on a MAGA wave doesn’t seem to be acknowledging:
This election is going to ultimately be about one thing: Democrat women want them some abortion. And they’ll burn the house down to get it.
Like the man says, prove me wrong.
Please.
And if Democrats “prevail,” expect the deep state enforcement apparatus to work overtime setting up low-hanging fruit to do stupid things it can tar its disillusioned political opponents with.

At least one person was killed and multiple people, including young children and teens, were wounded in a shooting near Union Station in Kansas City, Missouri, at the conclusion of the Chiefs’ Super Bowl victory parade Wednesday, officials said. [More]
It wasn’t those “psychopaths [with an] an underlying, biologically transmitted proclivity with roots deep in their evolutionary history” again, was it?
So the Chiefs won? I think this is the longest I’ve been able to avoid the “news.”
But it’s not like I don’t care about the Super Bowl.

Oops, wrong psychopaths…
