Man robbed twice on gas station parking lot, shots also fired [More]
Weird, the way they staged it in two separate assaults…

The ‘Greatest Threat’ Menace
Town and Country police monitor apparent neo-Nazi demonstration [More]
And what’s causing all the ruckus is a grainy photo of what, six guys we know nothing about, so have to conclude are “rightwing extremists”/MAGA supporters?
I wonder how many are feds.

We’re the Only Ones Altering Enough
Georgia city ‘consistently altered’ speeding tickets: state investigation [More]
What is it with government enforcers altering the deal?

Blind Leading the Blind
Former New York Gov. David Paterson and his stepson were attacked Friday night while walking near their home in New York City, according to a spokesperson for Paterson. [More]
Gee. That’s too bad.

A Plan Comes Together
The Number of Illegal Aliens Dumped Into Swing States Is Jaw-Dropping [More]
Good thing this has nothing to do with that “single issue.” And I have that on good authority.

We’re the Only Ones Guaranteeing Enough
Sober driver arrested for DUI and thrown in jail because officer knew his brother, ‘guaranteed’ he had weed in the car: Lawsuit [More]
In a rational world, “Shreiner repeatedly turning off his audio” in addition to his absolutely unlawful behavior would be enough to take qualified immunity off the table.
Sing it, George, you…

Ghost Gun
High school student arrested after allegedly showing gun on school grounds… The teen is facing a charge of assault with a dangerous weapon, though more charges may follow… Police were unable to locate the gun [More]
What gun…?
The only way I can see charges sticking is if he’s dumb and scared enough not to keep his mouth shut, which I suspect they’ve built their case around.

There Oughta Be a Law
North Andover man charged with illegal possession of guns, explosives… Medina is not allowed to possess firearms… [More]
There’s a truism to be admitted here.

We’re the Only Ones Endangering Enough
Off-duty Atlanta police officer shot, killed while breaking into Douglas County home, deputies say [More]
So, he had mental health/narcotics issues and no one noticed, and they still unleashed him on the public?
On the plus side, they can now distance themselves by calling him a “former officer.”

Now You See It, Now You Don’t
Ms. Margaret Moore, a lead staffer in NIH’s FOIA office, allegedly taught NIAID officials how to “make emails disappear” [More]

Just Like the Founders Used to Do
It’s time to ban guns from every polling place in America. [More]
Yeah, we see how intimidated everybody was by the guy with the rifle.
Hope to Die
Center For Hope To Receive $100,000 Support Grant From Everytown Community Safety Fund [More]
Not that feral violence in Baltimore will be impacted one bit…
I guess as long as they’re squandering money on this nonsense, it’s not being used DIRECTLY against us.
I’m just waiting for survivors of some shot up violence interrupter to get a deep pockets-savvy lawyer to go after the people who encouraged him to place himself in harm’s way and who “knew or should have known” the extreme risks.

My Tax Dollars at Work
Weeks before what many of us consider to be the most important election in American history, the Hudson Library and Historical Association is hosting “Brown University Constitutional Law Professor Corey Brettschneider” and “Host and Creator of PoliticsGirl Leigh McGowan, author of A Return to Common Sense: How to Fix America Before We Really Blow It.”
It’s pretty obvious from his Twitter feed that Corey is virulently against Trump and Vance, and McGowan’s IMDB bio says she “strongly opposes and dislikes the Republican party.”
How is hosting these and not giving equal time to speakers supportive of MAGA not tax-funded political bias?
I Rest My Case
And to those who are still giving him a pass and making excuses because it could be a losing issue, if that’s the case, he’ll lose anyway– he’s not shying away from abortion, and we’re talking similar constituencies. And naturally, Dems are already telling voters he’s an “extremist.” And “a homophobe.”
Dems even call moderates Nazis, so he’s got nothing to lose and gun owners — who don’t even know his name weeks before the election — to gain. Plus, he can’t erase his NRA grade– that his opponent isn’t exploiting that tells me she’s not anxious to see this can of worms opened either.
How people presume a politician afraid/ashamed will stand for them when the going really gets tough without any basis is beyond me. And it’s the guy on the inside who can hurt you the worst.
The late RNC Chair Lee Atwater is reputed to have asked about gun owners, “Who else are they going to vote for?” We’ve seen the results of wishful thinking, gutlessness, and betrayal. I’m not getting how keeping that door perpetually held open for all Republicans –like it has been in the years I’ve been calling them out on it –works to our advantage.
In for a penny in for a pound:
We’re the Only Ones Over the Edge Enough
Four officers who responded to the Capitol attack have since died by suicide. [More]
Out of 140 “injured”? How seriously? Does that include the ones gassed by their own incompetent deployment? So, basically 3% couldn’t handle it? What did they think could happen on the job? Does that sound normal? Should we be giving these people guns?
Yet none of the 1, 265 protestors, including all the citizens who have been incarcerated and had their lives destroyed and are facing years in prison have felt so inclined?
Why does this feel like a total Democrat propaganda piece timed to sway gullible voters?
Oh, because it is?
Slack-Jawed MAGA Knuckledraggers Too Dumb to Vote
Former Obama senior adviser David Axelrod argued that Vice President Kamala Harris voters will be clever enough to navigate voting in the wake of the devastation from Hurricane Helene, while saying that rural Trump voters will have a harder time getting to the polls. [More]
Underestimating the opposition is the province of fools. And it’s dangerous for all, because it can make a person try things they otherwise would not dare.

Botched Helene Recovery Might Impact Voting in Trump North Carolina Strongholds [More]
The question appears to be if they’ll be clever enough to navigate election interference.
And “botched” my… eye.

Oh Mickey, What a Pity, You Don’t Understand
Why did Mickey Edwards endorse Kamala Harris? [More]
Why? Because he’s senile!
That and he’s always been an oath-breaking Vichycon:
I Was a Republican Congressman. I Had to Do Something About Gun Violence.
“A lifelong conservative,” eh, Oklahoman (part of the USA Today network/a Gannett Publication)? That’s an old trick where anyone with principles consistent with the Bill of Rights and limited government can be smeared as an “extremist.”
