Notes from the Resistance
Harris looked at the AFT audience and said, “While you try to create safe and welcoming places where our children can learn, extremists attack our freedom to live safe from gun violence. They have the nerve to tell teachers to strap on a gun in the classroom.” [More]
Don’t look for her to ever be publicly confronted with the truth.

Take three words out of context AND dictate the conditions that make more inevitable.
Opinion: I study school shootings. Here’s what AI can — and can’t — do to stop them [More]
Fact: It can’t shoot back. (Yet.)
They all have expensive fire control systems, don’t they, even big ones are so rare as to be statistically insignificant?
You see where I’m going with this.

“We take a snapshot in time that’ll go out to our 24/7 365 Manned Operations center that’s primarily staffed with former law enforcement and military veterans to make a very quick decision.” [More]
What, the same “experts” who call AR-15s “a weapon of war, the same gun that was issued to me as a member of [the] ATF SWAT team”…?
So I don’t get it– is the “real gun” call made by AI or by “Only Ones” sitting at computer screens? Metaphorically, it sounds like AI is just the Democrat rep that pulls the fire alarm. And how can they tell if an Airsoft gun is a real one or not if ATF can’t? (Internet Archive link may load very slowly)
And without an armed deterrent already on campus capable of repelling an intruder when seconds count, what difference does it make?
I may turn this one into a full-blown article.

I don’t know if there’s enough to establish a direct correlation/causation link, but it sure is curious how shootings go up with more political and media demands for and enactment of gun laws…
I’d like to see a study showing a timeline for that. Perhaps this could be a useful application for these AI programs we’re told can sort through stuff and reach conclusions it would otherwise take people years to do…
The Uvalde police who stood in the hall for over an hour as over 40 children and teachers were shot (21 died) were quick to arrest parents of the victims like Brett Cross for making public outbursts at County Commissioners they accuse of a coverup. [More]

Is it really racist to ask about populations most directly affected by and responsive to a continuing history of deliberately destructive government policies?

I understand they crapped themselves over at the Human Rights Center.

Police later said they were able to secure the school and determined that a student had a keychain with what appeared to be small revolver on it. [More]
Hysteria-producing ignorance this profound is engineered and directed, and you can literally tell people this unknowledgeable anything to spook them into demanding magic. And that’s just the way the prohibitonists want it.

A detailed search of the Anders’ residence unearthed an alarming array of weapons and materials, including ghost guns, bomb-making components, “emergency food supplies,” and “multiple computers.” San Diego Fire’s Bomb Squad also removed an RPG rocket launcher from the house. [More]
With all the hysteria over specialty rounds and cartridges legal in most states, and a demilled dummy RPG launcher, it’s fair to wonder how much of the rest of the article is hyperbolic DSM fear porn.
Thing is, this guy and Junior made it easy.

“While walking with families through the building, I couldn’t help but ask God, ‘What do you want from me here? How can I take this horrible experience and do a fraction of what the families have done in the face of trauma and turn it into something that can help others?’” he added. [More]
For some reason the story that ends with “I sent you a Jeep, I sent you a boat, I sennt you a helicopter…” comes to mind.

So, what else could the “terrified students and professors” do besides “cower”? [More]
“Run, Hide, Fight,” the armed SECOND responders advise. What if you can’t outrun a bullet, can’t keep the monster from finding you, and can’t get close enough to attack back with a fire extinguisher or chair?
