A Spree Grows in Brooklyn

Niece of NYC’s Gun Violence Prevention Czar among 6 teens shot outside sweet 16 party… The family of a 15-year-old victim exclusively spoke to Eyewitness News and said the teen was standing outside waiting for an Uber after the party when she was struck. [More]

“…early Sunday morning”…?

“This is a lot for me because I feel like a parent, I feel like a father that wants to protect his daughter to go to any length to make sure that she’s alright and safe,” Mann said.

Looks like we need more “commonsense gun safety laws.”

Good grief.

We’re the Only Ones Down Under Enough

While he had his hands raised and was shouting “Don’t shoot!”

At least they finally got around to shooting somebody…

And Carlos Hathcock, hold our Fosters:

Heroic detective killed Bondi Beach terror suspect with ‘once-in-a-lifetime shot’ from over 100 feet away

Meanwhile, the PM decries “right wing extremists” and demands more citizen disarmament.

And Right on Cue

The National Firearms Agreement established after the Port Arthur massacre will be renegotiated and NSW parliament may be recalled before Christmas to pass urgent legislation after a father and son allegedly slaughtered 15 people with legally registered firearms. [More]

So… give the grabbers everything they demand (at the time) and then they come back to demand more…?

Who’da thunk?

And I like how they called it an “Agreement.”

Take the Gun?

A Scripps News investigation found more than two dozen law enforcement officers — including some of the shooter’s military superiors — were aware of his access to firearms and his violent threats ahead of the shooting, but no one followed through with actions to remove the shooter’s guns from his possession using extreme risk protection order laws. [More]

So… their answer is to remove the guns but not the maniac?

Still Useless After All These Years

2 charged in connection to deadly mass shooting outside Minneapolis school… Police said ShotSpotter detected 30 rounds that had been fired. [More]

So, it stopped nothing, played no part in capturing the two suspected henchpersons, and “Bino” is still at large…

It’s always worked about as well as everything else that Chipman character has tried to sell.

♫ A Three Hour Tour… ♫

Gunfire erupts after a charter boat altercation in South Carolina beach town, police say… The Associated Press reported that an online flyer advertised a party Sunday on a three-hour cruise with a DJ. [More]

Anybody got a copy of the flyer? Why is it I’ve followed links to half a dozen “accounts”real reports” on this and not one of them gives a description or names of the victims or the suspects?

When I was in journalism school, the first thing we learned was the 5 W’s and H, with the first W being “Who.”

We can’t tell you the names of the under-aged reptiles because…?

Would it be bigoted to wonder about citizenship status? No, forget I asked, please don’t destroy me.
