We’re the Only Ones Unhurried Enough

Residents criticize SLMPD for 13-minute response to shooting [More]

Why did it even need to be called in, with ShotSpotter on the job…?

It’s also fair to ask what personal choices Precious Jones, who “started the Breaking Generational Poverty Foundation in hopes of stopping gun violence,” and her family could have made differently over the years.

We’re the Only Ones Bashing Enough

The first lawsuit accuses the officer of illegally detaining and assaulting bar co-owner Chad Morris. Morris and his husband, James Pence, were in disbelief when police crashed into their bar in December. “There’s no Breathalyzer given there,” Khazaeli said. “Instead, they immediately move to cover up what they did wrong by making the victims the bad guys here.” [More]

What the hell are YOU lookin’ at?

More Proof It’s the Guns

Second shooting in a week near Skinker-DeBaliviere Metro station [More]

No worries. Taulby is quick to point out it didn’t happen where he expects his riders to wait, just right next to it. And how “robust” can his video system be if the morons opening fire are too stupid to care if they’re being recorded?

You Deserve a Brick Today

“The suspect was heard by bystanders there saying that he hated white people; that he was going to hurt this guy,” FBI Supervisory Special Agent Joe Weston said. “He walked past other people there at the bus stop and attacked this individual, a white male.” [More]

Good thing black people can’t be racist!

Funny, what’s capitalized and what’s lower-case in this story…

We’re the Only Ones Smoking Enough

The St. Louis Metropolitan Police Department says it has launched an internal investigation after an officer was caught on video lighting a cigar during an arrest. The video, initially shared by the Voice Of The People STL organization, shows an officer lighting a cigarette while a suspect is kept down on the ground. [More]

Someone want to explain the difference to “real reporter” Joey Schneider?

The casualness with which these bastards assault citizens reminds me of that ATF JBT who pulled a George Floyd knee-to-neck maneuver on a LARPer while his buddy made a phone call with his hand in his pocket.

What, you don’t remember that one?

Arm the Teachers?

Moran, a 59-year-old teacher at Mason Clark Middle School, made the statement on May 9 to another teacher, saying he “ought to bring a gun to school and shoot them all in the name of God.” He was allegedly referring to the students. [More]

I’d be interested to know what triggered him.

I’m also wondering how strongly I’d fight a proposal to add Democrat public school teachers to the “prohibited persons” list…

Kick the Can

“Crime Hub” gas station in downtown to shut down in August… Puricelli told Fox 2 he’s not sure what will replace the gas station but is aware the property is hitting the market. [More]

Seeing as how the people who made the gas station a “crime hub” will still be around, don’t expect their behaviors to change. Or is the assumption they’ll just do it someplace else?
