Just What the People Voted For

Tell me it doesn’t matter that they’ve caught him without telling me it doesn’t matter that they’ve caught him.

Cut and Run

UPDATE: Jaia Cruz, initially reported as a “woman,” has been identified as Alvin Cruz, a 24-year-old transgender, accused of fatally stabbing a postal worker in Harlem.

Cruz is charged with first degree murder and has two prior arrests in 2020 for incidents that involved knives. https://t.co/scByrcUpCJ pic.twitter.com/6o3rbI5l1k

What was the first clue that this person is mentally ill? And if someone has proven they can’t be trusted with a knife, what the hell are they doing out?

I wonder what a jury drawn from a pool of morons who vote for this crap is going to do to Daniel Penny…

At Least It was a ‘Gun-Free Zone’

Eight people were killed and 17 more were injured in a knife attack at a school in eastern China on Saturday evening, local police said, in the same week the country saw its deadliest mass killing in almost a decade. [More]

That would be this one.

All Over the Map

Even more alarming are reports that the suspect in this case has had nine felony convictions over the past ten years, and that he also has misdemeanor convictions on his record, and at the time of the stabbing incidents, he was the subject of an outstanding arrest warrant. [More]

Let’s see if the map tells us anything useful…

Look on the Bright Side

No worries, the law will soon stop the perp.

Is it really so wrong to wonder how the victim voted?

What Happens in Vegas

Police are asking the public for help locating several people of interest after a man allegedly sexually assaulting a woman in Las Vegas was fatally stabbed by a group of people who intervened to help the female victim. [More]

If they’d shot him we’d be seeing all kinds of hand-wringing about “vigilantes”…

HOW THINGS WORK AROUND HERE

Satisfaction Guaranteed

Anyone not happy with anything on this site at any time will get 100% of all money they paid to me refunded, no questions asked. (No gratuities solicited or accepted.)

Comment House Rules

Keep them on topic. Trying to hijack threads really grinds my gears. No spam.
I moderate them so I’ll get to them when I can.
No threats against anyone except me. No fights–this is my place and if things get ugly, I treat unruly visitors the same way as I would in my home. Do not feed trolls–I’ll take out the trash.
Try to keep it clean.
I’m the final arbiter. If you don’t like the rules, start your own damn blog.

WarOnGuns Correspondents

Story tips received via email and social media messages will be credited. Just let me know how you want to be recognized (real name, first name/last initial, or screen name.)

Link Policy

I maintained a WogRoll at the old Blogspot place predicated on reciprocity with like-minded RKBA-related sites. Truth be told, I never got much in terms of site visits to make the effort worth the time. I may try to do something again in the future, but for now, my hands are more than full trying to get a new site started.

Advertising Disclosure

This is a placeholder for now because I have not done ads on the old blog for years. In case I ever start them up here, this will be the policy in effect: The FTC has some fool nonsense rules about ads on blogs or some such and presumes authority over the First Amendment to compel the unfunded mandate that we who earn ad revenues make some kind of disclosure so you don’t think we’re getting paid to say nice things about people or God knows what, meaning they must think you’re stupid, too. I have had a few ads on the old site in the past and may do so again if I think it’s worth a try. Combined, I probably couldn’t buy a box of good cigars each year, let alone a bottle of George T. Stagg, and that is somehow supposed to compromise my morality to force me to say nice things about products and services I don’t mean simply in exchange for filthy lucre. If you believe that, leave now–you’re not smart enough to be here. Bottom line, aside from welcoming a sponsor, I will do no posts related to their products or services, or reviews of what they offer without complete disclosure.

About “The Only Ones”

So named from a comment by DEA agent Lee Paige, who told a classroom full of kids he was “the only one” qualified to be armed and then promptly shot himself in the foot, the purpose of this feature has never been to bash cops. The only reason I do this is to amass a credible body of evidence to present when those who would deny our right to keep and bear arms use the argument that only government enforcers are professional and trained enough to do so safely and responsibly. And it’s also used to illustrate when those of official status, rank, or privilege, both in law enforcement and in some other government position, get special breaks not available to we commoners, particularly (but not exclusively) when they’re involved in gun-related incidents.
