NYPD - The War on Guns

We’re the Only Ones Armed Robbing Enough

New York citizen with 0 criminal record posts photos of a 3D printed AR lower on Reddit. NYPD (and presumably other agencies) magically have all of his credit card records and internet history within days showing “parts” purchases to complete the receivers. NYPD costume-wearing domestic terrorists in uniform show up and arrest the citizen. Seize over $22k worth of his property (including body armor claiming it was “firearm-related”). 6 months later all charges dropped. No items were returned. $10k+ in attorneys fees incurred. [More]

I’ll just leave this here…

How Does It Feel?

The problem is, NYPD is a big part of the problem.

And it always has been.

We’re the Only Ones Resigned Enough

No worries. Just keep lowering standards and they’ll have all the staff they need.

We’re the Only Ones Elite Enough

No, it’s not a toy gun! Your elite 104 Precinct Public Safety Officers confiscated this illegal Orbeez air rifle, capable of causing serious injury akin to a BB gun. [More]

So neither of those two “elite” meatheads has the presence of mind to be embarrassed?

We’re the Only Ones Out of Uniform Enough

Anything you whoop can and will be held against you? Sounds more like they were given a pass, but don’t be surprised if bodycams really were turned on to share the amusement.

If that’s how seriously they take his wedding vows, imagine how they revere their oaths!

We’re the Only Ones Unseen Enough

We’re the Only Ones Running Down Enough

And they didn’t even stop the crime they were trying to prevent, which is probably a good thing, because that took away an excuse to open fire. But at least their intentions were good.

We’re the Only Ones Chilling Enough

A jury convicted a former New York City police officer on Friday of second-degree murder in the death of his 8-year-old son, who was forced to sleep overnight on the concrete floor of a freezing garage. [More]

If he treated his child like this, what would he not do to you if angered?

I predict a hot reception in the cooler.

We’re the Only Ones Forced Enough

The NYPD unveiled emergency rules Friday that will let people carry concealed weapons in the city. [More]

I’m wondering if they left the definition of training purposely vague to invite a challenge with resultant excuses for delays…

We’re the Only Ones Getting a GRIP Enough

NYPD gun violence tracking database draws concern from civil liberties advocates … Critics of the list, which tracks gun violence suspects, worry people of color may be disproportionately surveilled. [More]

So “99%” is the data’s fault? Eric Adam’s supporters aren’t going to be very pleased.

And Michael Bloomberg’s The Trace complaining about racist gun control: That’s rich.

To be consistent, they’d have to put them on the “No Fly List,” which would be the political kiss of death, so it’s easier just to restrict what you and I can have.
