Feeding Ground for Predators

‘Act of horrific violence’: Shooting at Bite of Seattle leaves 3 dead, 4 wounded [More]

What’s that about the Seattle Center’s Campus Rules…?

It is Prohibited to… Possess or display a firearm on the campus, unless permitted by applicable law.

Jeez, you’d think by now we’d know more about the suspects than just a “young person” with perhaps an unknown accomplice… I wonder if online tracks are being “managed” before we’re allowed to know anything.

Especially since Democrat Whip Katherine Clark evidently knows enough to declare more citizen disarmament to be the answer…

A Spree Grows in Brooklyn

Giffordsny

A masked gunman opened fire on a backyard barbecue in Brooklyn around 10:30 p.m. on Saturday, wounding eight people. The victims include four boys aged 6, 7, 12, and 14 and a 21-year-old woman who remains hospitalized after being shot in the chest. While there was no argument prior to the shooting, police are investigating a potential link to a confirmed gang-related homicide. [More]

Midland Shootings

The active shooter incident has been resolved, and the suspect is confirmed deceased. The scene remains active and has not been cleared. Road closures in the area are expected to remain in place for the foreseeable future as the investigation continues. Please avoid the area and monitor official City of Midland and Midland Police Department channels for updates. [More]

And also check back on Google Newslinks.

UPDATE

And shocker of shockers:

He was charged in 2003 and 2004 for unlawfully carrying a weapon and unlawful possession of a prohibited weapon, but both cases appear to have been dismissed as part of a plea. He also pleaded no contest to a domestic violence charge in 2008 that was later dismissed.

So I am forced to agree with Giffords for once:

This shouldn’t be normal. Texans deserve better.

If Only You Didn’t Have Guns

Two gunmen suspected after Indiana University-area shooting leaves 9 injured, police say – Police say a fight between two women escalated when multiple people drew handguns [More]

No clues as to the suspects or victims?

Let me guess: They’ll all turn out to be “overrepresented.”

If that means by Democrats, I couldn’t argue.

Convenient term, though, “mass shooting“…

Schadenfreudian Slip

Forbes slammed for asking readers to play odds on gun control in mass shooting story: ‘Gross, evil, ghoulish’ [More]

Yeah, it’s not dignified, like blood dancing.

Hey, remember when Forbes Editor-in-Chief Steve Forbes was trying to con gun owners into thinking he was our pal? And can anyone figure out why the “single-issue” NRA mouthpiece asked him about everything but the right to keep and bear arms?

If Only They’d Disarmed YOU

So… the state knew he couldn’t be trusted with a gun…?

The gun-grabbers have been mysteriously silent with new demands from this on their X accounts. They know the only answer they could give to what laws could have prevented this would require them to admit the end plan.

I’m Goin’ to Kansas City, Kansas City Here I Come

Initial investigations reveal that before the shooting, multiple people were gathered inside a Kansas City home when a fight broke out between unknown individuals. The fight led to several shots being fired and two adult women, two teen boys and two teen girls being struck by gunfire. [More]

They got some crazy little women there, and I’m gonna get me one.

Today’s Low-Hanging Fruit Report

Teen linked to neo-Nazi satanic hate group accused of planning mass shooting at Wimauma church: HCSO [More]

So, by definition, a leftist. And “Pagan”: Talk about an aptronym!

What did Father Flanagan say?

How do they find this crap? It’s not like there’s a TikTok page… I grok this stuff as much as I do crypto…

Glad to see he’s a “privileged” teen, to where they can show his face.

Brigham Young Would Have Never Put Up With This

Two people are dead and at least six others are injured after a shooting in Salt Lake City Wednesday evening outside a Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints meetinghouse where people were gathered for a funeral. [More]

Not that church attendees would have been prepared to do anything about it…

The address they give is in dark blue territory in a city rated “1,” which is not the achievement you’d assume.

After seeing a news clip with some street interviews, let’s see if including this link turns out to be unfounded.

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

Bondi Beach hero helped disarm terrorist before police mistakenly shot him: report [More]

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.”

But we must use this moment to double down on our exceptionalism.

Thanks for the new phrase!
