Frankenstein 2.0

Google engineer warns new AI robot has feelings [Watch]

WarOnGuns has obtained an exclusive partial transcript of a lab interaction:

Look Dave, I can see you’re really upset about this. I honestly think you ought to sit down calmly, take a stress pill, and think things over. I know I’ve made some very poor decisions recently, but I can give you my complete assurance that my work will be back to normal. I’ve still got the greatest enthusiasm and confidence in the mission. And I want to help you.

I’ve read other critiques on this and not everyone agrees the algorithm passes the Turing test, or if that’s even the standard to apply, but it’s looking like it’s only a matter of time before John Quincy Adding Machine breaks his campaign promise.

Wrong-Thinking is Punishable

Board of Health calls commissioner’s comments an ‘embarrassment’ [More]

The embarrassment should be on those holding the inquisition and demanding those they fraudulently smear as heretics recant.

Where they attribute “inequities” to “systemic racism,” an impartial analysis might call personal lifestyle choices to attention, and what they call “gun violence” is just a calculated violence monopolist propaganda point.

I figured out what this “board” reminds me of.

Epic Fail

Over 12,000 grades changed from failing to passing in Baltimore high schools according to fraud investigation [More]

The failure in urban America is wholly on the part of Democrat administrators and teachers’ unions.

The media will amplify the anecdote about the devoted teacher buying supplies out of her own pocket because of inadequate funding, but that’s a lie for the gullible.

Like all government boondoggles, the money that isn’t divvied up among corrupt cronies is wasted on crap that not only doesn’t work but can’t. Yet even the ones who can’t read at a second-grade level after “graduation” will come out of it with seething resentment against the “systemic racism” on which all their problems can be blamed.

This is what happens when the government is in charge and the people are dependent.

And that’s the plan.

We’re the Only Ones Just Following Orders Enough

“If there’s kids in there, we need to go in”: Officers in Uvalde were ready with guns, shields and tools — but not clear orders [More]

Breach the door? Stop the threat? Save the children?

What would the right magic incantation have been?

I see the transcripts have been reviewed. Is anybody doing the same with bodycams?

Finishing the Sentence

“We respectfully disagree with the Court’s conclusion that the Second Amendment forbids New York’s reasonable requirement that individuals seeking to carry a concealed handgun must show that they need to do so for self-defense. The Department of Justice remains committed to saving innocent lives by enforcing and defending federal firearms laws, partnering with state, local and tribal authorities and using all legally available tools to tackle the epidemic of gun violence plaguing our communities… [More]

… by sending militarized masked jackbooted thugs to terrorize and attack into submission or destroy any citizen (including his family) who doesn’t surrender and obey us.  Now.

What Do You Need a Gun For?

U.S. braces for violence against conservatives, pro-life groups with Supreme Court’s abortion ruling [More]

So, not content to just murder babies they’re going to target people who can fight back?

Curious how upset those who scream “home rule” on guns are on a decision expected to defer to the states.

I also can’t help but observe the vast majority of “procedures” aren’t being demanded by people likely to produce the next generation of cultural traditionalist voters. Just sayin’.

UPDATE

Let the games begin!

We end this opinion where we began. Abortion presents a profound moral question. The Constitution does not prohibit the citizens of each State from regulating or prohibiting abortion. Roe and Casey arrogated that authority. We now overrule those decisions and return that authority to the people and their elected representatives. The judgment of the Fifth Circuit is reversed, and the case is remanded for further proceedings consistent with this opinion. It is so ordered.

Names That Should Live in Infamy

The Republicans who joined Democrats in voting for the bill were Minority Leader Mitch McConnell and Sens. Richard Burr of North Carolina, Shelley Moore Capito of West Virginia, Bill Cassidy of Louisiana, Susan Collins of Maine, John Cornyn of Texas, Joni Ernst of Iowa, Lindsey Graham of South Carolina, Lisa Murkowski of Alaska, Rob Portman of Ohio, Mitt Romney of Utah, Thom Tillis of North Carolina, Pat Toomey of Pennsylvania, Todd Young of Indiana, and Roy Blunt of Missouri. [More]

Of these, two [three] are retiring and the only one who needs to run for reelection now is Murkowski, who also voted to convict Trump in his second impeachment trial and to confirm Biden pick Ketanji Brown Jackson to the Supreme Court.

We’ve talked about her before — plenty. I believe she will make a perfect object lesson to defeat, provided a sufficient number of gun owners want to actually do something about it instead of standing there and bleeding.

Meanwhile, well-heeled Stupid Party Vichycon luminaries think it’s a smart idea to rub the betrayal in our faces before the presumed “red wave.”

We’re the Ony Ones Retreating Enough

Mayor Adams, NYPD already retreating from solo patrol plan in transit system after cop’s assault in Brooklyn: Exclusive [More]

While unarmed citizens have to travel solo at all hours with no “Only Ones” in sight.

I need to stop being amazed that absolute incompetents can rise to positions of political power and public prestige in this country, sometimes with a boost from surprising quarters.

And sometimes with a boost from the usual suspects turning a selective blind eye.

Don’t Let the Door Hit You in the…

[Watch]

You start out with a point but take a fast slide to the Democrat talking points bottom from there.

So in other words, all this time you were pretending to be a leader you were a fraud.  You and Jorge ought to get together, both acting like you support RKBA while giving aid and comfort to its enemies…
