Shamsud We Hardly Knew Ye
The terrorist who killed 14 people and hurt 35 more in New Orleans in the early hours of New Year’s Day prepositioned bombs that used an extraordinarily rare explosive compound, senior law enforcement officials have told NBC News. The two devices didn’t detonate, but authorities are scrambling to learn how Shamsud-Din Jabbar was able to incorporate a type of explosive that has never before been used in a terror attack in America or Europe.

So why are they so sure he was a “lone wolf”?
And all those unanswered questions about the Las Vegas “moderate”…
Kinda makes you wonder why some gun owners adamantly advocate believing what the government allow us to see about school shooters…

Sins of Omission
Time for Commonsense Car Safety Laws
BREAKING: Suspect in New Orleans crash and shooting is dead after firefight with police, law enforcement officials tell AP [More]
Yeah, leave it to AP to make it about guns.
But as long as they have, so much for licensing and registration…
And remember:
Anybody figure out why the barriers were conveniently down with no temporary replacement alternative?
We’re the Only Ones Appreciative Enough
“I understand constitutional carry and why it would be okay in some parts of Louisiana, but you can’t say that is true for New Orleans,” Kirkpatrick said. I’m a person who appreciates constitutional carry but not in every location. New Orleans is unique. We have no business with guns at a parade or in our entertainment areas at all.” [More]
Bringing the same results to New Orleans she did to Oakland, I see…
Only in government is suing your previous employer not a red flag for hiring managers…

On Quiet Reflection
We’re the Only Ones Self-Educated Enough
New Orleans Police Department will now be listed as vocational school creating a gun free zone in FQ [More]
I guess in an age when you can call yourself whatever you identify as, this should come as no suprise. Especially in wretched Confiscation Town.

We’re the Only Ones Self-Evident Enough
‘The rats are … all high,’ NOPD chief says of vermin-infested HQ, evidence warehouse [More]
That’s as good an excuse for impounded drugs “disappearing” as any.
And which rats?
It’s not like on CSI, is it?

A Private Gun Transfer
Four victims turn gun on suspect in Bourbon Street armed robbery [More]
In fairness, they probably hadn’t heard that they could have their own yet…
Then again, they were on Bourbon Street…
Lemme guess: They surrendered it to the “Only Ones.”

Never Forget
“Only following orders” — this is why the authoritarians are so determined to smear and destroy the concept of Oath Keepers and Three Percenters.
Been a while since I’ve seen these clips. The thought strikes: Whatever became of excuse-making JBTs-by-their-actions Fred Bible and Chris Montgomery?
The thought also strikes in all this time I’ve never seen one “commonsense gun safety advocate” condemn this tyranny.
“Few bad apples” my … eye. Every damn one of them. And remember, all good “conservatives” say “Back the Blue!”

A Monumental Development
A gigantic Afro hair pick, decorated with a peace sign and surmounted by a clenched Black fist, popped up in Lafayette Square on Friday evening. A social media video shows New Orleans Mayor LaToya Cantrell pulling away sheeting to expose the estimated 24-foot-tall steel creation of artist Hank Willis Thomas. In a tweet, Cantrell declared the new addition to the city’s streetscape “Breathtaking.” [More]
Yeah, he’s a regular Michelangelo.
I’m sure historians will find that much more relevant to the cultural development of the city than these, done in a style that required, you know knowledge, hard work, and talent.
