Not My Job

Responding to lawsuit, chief judge says he’s not responsible for people who kill others while on court’s electronic monitoring [More]

Let’s just ignore “the law,” put a monitor on this man-eating tiger and open the cage! It’s not like we’ll be held personally accountable or anything…

We Don’t Need No Education

Chicago Mayor Lightfoot tells McDonald’s CEO to ‘educate himself’ after he warns of rising crime [More]

Let’s see, “a bachelor’s degree from Duke University, and an MBA from Harvard Business School” vs. a “Bachelor of Arts in political science from the University of Michigan”…

What a subject for her to bring up.

I wonder if that dancing puppet would have the actual real-world skills to run a single McDonald’s.

Blowing Out More Than Candles

Gun-Toting Grandson Unloads on Shooters When Grandma’s Birthday Party Erupts in Gunshots [More]

If my admitted presumption about the defender and his family is correct, that means the gun-grabbers would rather see innocent minorities killed than armed.

We know they would regardless, but that would kind of put an exclamation point on it.

Much to Their Astonishment

Shocking moment Chicago woman is attacked and robbed at gunpoint by group of men on sidewalk in broad daylight: Terrified residents of upscale neighborhood say they never expected this to happen on ‘quiet block’ [More]

No need for smoke detectors and fire extinguishers– we haven’t had one of those around here since forever… 

I bet Sharon Tate probably thought she lived in a pretty safe neighborhood, too.

You can improve the odds. You can’t eliminate them.

And why does the Vulcan crew of the Intrepid come to mind?

Within Range

“To open up a gun range, literally within blocks and miles of dozens of schools, I think is completely irresponsible.” [More]

“Blocks and miles” basically means every gun range in the country would need to be shut down. Their version of “commonsense gun safety” means no one has a place to practice and learn. That’s because their version means no one but their beloved overlords will have arms.

At least they’re not indiscriminately demanding followers “snuff out” anybody. Yet.

And per colleague-in-arms President Non_Fudd:

This is the Elise Hauptman mentioned in the article. Shit literally helps “groom” young students to be gun control activists and has a position in the school system. She’s been doing it for years too

The hive minds never quit, do they?

Knife to a Gun Fight

“At that point, the person who appears to be being robbed takes out a knife, stabs the person with the gun. That individual is now deceased.” [More]

You can have all the gear and training in the world, but without the will to do what it takes you’ve got nothing.

Everybody knows about the Tueller drill, right? So I don’t need to give a link?

We’re the Only Ones Unflagged Enough

Third Chicago Police Officer Dies By Suicide This Month [More]

We’ve talked for a long time now about how the antis exploit suicide as justification for citizen disarmament, with them conveniently not mentioning that the ones tasked with doing the disarming are a much more at-risk population.

Pritzker wants to empower them to further deny guns to citizens they only have a surface awareness of. Yet here we see colleagues they closely interact with on a daily basis slipping through the cracks and given thin blue line passes.

We’re the Only Ones Unresponsive Enough

New 2021 Chicago data shows 400,000 high-priority incidents where dispatchers had no police available to send – Wirepoints [More]

Oh, and I talked about giving an update.

Talk about trying to put a good face on a deformed freak. As if those numbers are statistically significant trend indicators.

Forget it, Jake. It’s Chi-Town.
